    Wings - supreme sauce. Perfect cook on the wings. The sauce was really really sweet.
    Aong V.

    We walked in and it reminded me a bit of how you'd walk into a chipotle. The dining area is spacious and would be good for a crowd. They had a big menu displaying drinks and their catering menu. A little odd - I think would be more beneficial if they displayed their daily menu instead. They did have smaller menus available by the register and you can check online. Food: Potato Dog - 4/5; there's no meat. Just cheese. I think mozzarella. I didn't realize it. But it was still really yummy. Bugolgi Kimbap - 4/5; It was good but I think the meat could use some extra salt. Wings - 5/5; I got the Supreme sauce and it was super sweet. A little too sweet for my liking. The cook on the chicken was great though. I'd get it again, but try a different sauce. Bulgogi Bibimbap - 3/5; we got this in the stone bowl, which cost an extra $2. I'd say, it just keeps the food warmer, but it doesn't crisp up the rice like how we thought it would. The bowl also needed more salt. I wouldn't get this again.

    Food is great, fresh, and delicious. Tastes great and lots of veggies so a nice balance; Nutritious and very enjoyable. Service is quick and helpful. Love this place! My favorite thing to order is the popcorn chicken box-very friendly for people trying new things too.

    Red Bean Bun

    This is a place for some really damn good fried chicken. I absolutely love their popcorn chicken, especially with the soy garlic sauce. So tasty. We usually get the large tray and have enough food for a couple meals. The red bean buns are delicious too...heck every thing is delicious. Kimchi Box is definitely a hidden gem on hall road.

    I've been a regular customer here, often ordering the large tray which typically comes with a white styrofoam cup of pickled daikon as a garnish. However, lately, it's been a bit hit or miss. There have been times when I had to ask for daikon, only to be told they were either out for the day or could provide it upon request. Today, I ordered my usual and asked for the daikon. The cashier asked if I was Korean, and when I said no, she informed me that daikon is free for Korean customers, but I would have to pay $1 or $2 because I wasn't. I found this explanation quite unusual and a little awkward. I'm still a fan of the food, but this experience left me a bit confused.

    Surprisingly good! This was my first time at this spot and I was pleasantly surprised. I don't eat meat so there wasn't a lot of options, which made finding food difficult here but I was able to get something I don't see listed on the menu. It was a bowl with rice, glass noodles, lettuce, fried tofu, sauces, etc. The employees were quick with preparing our order. The price was okay. The inside was nice, lots of seating area but we got takeout. I believe my friend got a chicken Kimchi box, they said it was good! Would recommend!

    Korean fried Wings
    Josh M.

    What a find! This unassuming venue packs a flavor punch that will have me seeking it out anytime I'm in the lower peninsula. K-FRIED WINGS with Korean Sassy sauce were easily the star of the meal. I polished these off first with a side of SASSY FRIES. BULGOGI TACOS were solid and could have been a light lunch on their own. I ordered a bit too much food, but was very happy to indulge in the leftovers the next day. *While my love of Korean flavors + never-ending quest for wings + reviews made this an easy choice, if it weren't for other Yelpers, I don't think I'd have found this gem. I can't thank the community enough!

    Seoul Chicken Sandwich
    Melissa B.

    Came here for lunch and it was delicious! I've been hearing about this place since they opened and I'm glad we finally tried it. Abundance of seating. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. I got the Seoul Chicken Sandwich which is made with chicken thighs and is super saucy. So tasty. My mom got a new menu item that was a KBBQ bowl also with chicken and it had lots of sauce and some veggies, rice and noodles! It was a large portion and she took half to go. They also have Korean corn dogs that have 2 per order so we got the potato dogs and of course they were great. Can't go wrong with a mozzarella filled corn dog! Pricing is really good hear too. Lots of food for cheap prices. Definitely would recommend coming here. I want to try more menu items in the future.

    Amazing food, great staff and atmosphere with tons of sitting area. Our only gripe is that you don't have dessert or drinks, but a place worth stopping by for sure. The steamed dumplings are amazing but the bulgogi taco is my favorite thing I've tried here.

    Bimbap w/ spicy pork
    Nay W.

    Went to a brewer for brunch & their kitchen was closed so I had to scramble to find a place for takeout. This place was chosen simply bc i like kbbq. I ordered the bulgogi bimibap. Estimated pickup time was 20min. My friend went after 15min & called me to tell me that bulgogi wasn't available. I was not contacted directly to be told that there was an issue w/ my order. I chose spicy pork. All the meat is $2.00 & my card had been charged when I made the order. The marinated cucumber was absolutely delicious.

    Reason for visiting: Casual Sunday exploring restaurants nearby Day & Time: Sunday around 3pm Party of: 1 Reservations: No Order Type: Mobile Order Waiter: N/A Food Order: -Appetizer: Cheese Corn Dogs. Surprisingly really good. -Drink: N/A -Entree: Wings ( Half & Half ) They were so good. Very crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Extras: N/A Conclusion: I LOVEEEEEEED the cheese corn dog! I love cheese in general so if you do to, I HIGHLY recommend. The chicken is really good too. I am a fan of Korean fried chicken. Tad expensive to be going consistently but definitely worth it.

    This is my second time eating here. First at this location. I didn't know it was a chain. Honestly this place is pretty consistent between the two I've tried. This place is kinda hipster. Loud music. You order at the register. The food quantity and quality is good. I honestly liked the Plymouth location better. The food was a little spicier. The bulgogi tacos are pretty epic. I wish they did just a meat rice bowl. Go give this place a try.

    Decided to check this place out after seeing chowdowndetroit's TikTok and I'm so glad I did! Sassy Fries (mozzarella, sour cream, and spicy Mayo): so crispy. I would have liked some more toppings but the fries were crispy enough to be enjoyed in their own. Wings (half Soy Garlic half Korean Sassy): LOVED THESE. Amazing crunch, perfect sauce to wing ratio, and the quality of the chicken was good. Half and half is the way to go because you get the sweet/spicy and the savory. Thighs (half Soy half Sassy): still yummy but not as crisp as the wings. Can't wait to try it on their chicken sandwich. All in all, give this place a try! The staff is very friendly, chill environment (+doesn't smell like fried oil despite an open kitchen), and delicious food. Just avoid wearing a white shirt and prepare to use a lot of napkins.

    This looks like it was the old Pei Wei. Ordered the BBQ chicken taco, Kimchi taco, BBQ chicken bibimbap, a 4 piece boneless chicken in the Korean sassy sauce, kimchi fries and a side of more kimchi. It's hot and new, it's only been open for a little over a week. They are open until 9pm. Dine-in, carry out available too. They were out of drums for a full order and the corn dogs. I wanted to try their corn dog. Next time. There's black beans, romaine, carrots, corn, julienne eggs, bean sprouts, japchae, red and green cabbage, radish, cucumber and onions in with the bibimbap. It's the most variety of ingredients I have ever had in my bibimbap. I say the more the merrier. All of that goodness is on top of some purple rice. Be sure to ask for a side of sesame oil and a spoon to eat it all up, it's quite good. We got to try a couple of their double fried bone-in wings they are so crispy. You can really hear the crunch your first bites into the outside. The Korean sassy sauce is sweet and hot. The kimchi fries are tasty. Has some hot dogs cut up on top of the fries. The fried kimchi is quite nice. The kimchi side is good, it's fresh. The water kimchi cubed is so refreshing, super fresh and crunchy and cuts some of the heat nicely from the Korean sassy sauce or the gochujang sauce from the bibimbap too. They told us to leave our finished items at the table. They would bus it clean after we leave. The service here is fantastic. The staff are all warm, attentive, polite and friendly too. The double fried wings are why people come here, the fries, bibimbap and tacos are to have a bit of variety and to change it up. A nice gem of a spot here in Sterling Heights.

In fact, after one visit, my 11-year-old said, "When I grow up, I hope I can work for someone like Will because he's so kind." That says everything. One of the employees, Ryleigh, always remembers our family. She greets us by name and makes my kids feel recognized and special every single time. Those little moments leave a lasting impression. Mission BBQ isn't just a restaurant. It's a place that honors our military, invests in people, and creates a welcoming environment where everyone feels like they matter. The outstanding food is just the icing on the cake. We always leave with full stomachs and full hearts. Highly recommend!

There is likely better barbecue in the area. Each meat varied heavily in quality, so they will be rated individually below. I ordered the Pitmaster's Platter, which included multiple samples of the meats. Meats Beef Brisket (2/5): For some reason, this brisket was extremely dry. There was no moisture between the meat fibers. When doing the brisket bend test over a finger, the brisket barely even moved. The bark had the texture of jerky. I would not recommend this meat option. Pulled Pork (3/5): The pulled pork was moist in some places and dry in others. This meat was extremely average. There were some parts of the pulled pork with a heavy smoke flavor, which I did appreciate. Pulled Chicken (2/5): This was just as dry as the brisket. There were small portions that did have some moisture, but I could not finish the dry portions. Cheddar Jalapeno Sausage (4/5): This meat was the best among the options. Incredibly juicy, heavy on the seasoning, and the cheese was oozing out of the sausage. If I were to come back, I would order this again. Ribs (2/5): Again, just as dry as the other meats. There was no pull, and the meat was tough on the outside. Sides Mac & Cheese (3/5): This macaroni and cheese was nothing special, despite other reviews raving about it. It is a standard mac and cheese with slightly soggy breadcrumbs on top. Coleslaw (5/5): Somehow, this was the best part of the meal. The coleslaw tasted extremely fresh. There was just enough sauce to coat the vegetables without taking away from their quality and crunch. The coleslaw being the best part of the meal says a lot about this establishment. I do not think I will be coming back here again.

Bad Brad's quality is still top notch, and they must have great management as their servers have been over the top good at each location year after year. It's hard to not complain about pricing in 2026... Brisket (or "premium meats") being added to meals is $3.25 ABOVE the normal price, and they now have "premium sides", which are also served with an upcharge on top of the menu price... I get that there a lot of complexities at the moment, and I'm hopeful that prices will come down in short order as it's really hard to justify ALL of these extra costs. I figured it was a better value this time around to get the 1/2 Chicken and add sliced brisket; sides were mac & cheese and BBQ chowder. Despite my gripes about pricing, this was an exceptional meal!!! The brisket was great as always; not too fatty, not too dry and tender, with a great smoke flavor! Sides were great as always... that BBQ chowder gets me each time and the mac & cheese was HOT, very flavorful and just hit the spot as a perfect comfort food. I took the chicken home with some of the sauces and it was just great as well... Even after being reheated in the air fryer, it was tender and juicy with zero toughness/stringiness. It was a really nice smoked bird! GOOD BBQ is hard to find, but Bad Brad's is still doing it right, even after all of these years!
