    Sooo yummmyyyy! Thank you for always being very accomodating & bringing out my freshly-made food fast. (: No complaints for this location, thank you thank youu!

    66 cent per sauce  When they barely even added any sauce

    they added a dash of sauce to my plate & charged 66 cent for this little ass container

    55 cents for boneless chicken wings (On Tuesday's)?!?! That's what's up! Honestly, the chicken itself is really juicy and delicious. I have no complaints! The sauce is varied. Although I prefer sauce at BWW, I'd have to say that for the price, it can't be beat. I haven't had any problems with service or order, but it was nothing to write home about. This is a slight upgrade from fast food places, but definitely not as comprehensive as a full blown restaurant. Want something quick to eat without breaking the bank? Can't go wrong here with either buffalo fries or boneless wings.

    Buffalo Fries with Special Sauce, add ranch

    Great service, quick and so so yummy! Manager and cashier were really nice and attentive when picking up my order!

    So I've been eating here since they originally opened in 2013 I'm never the type of person to complain about prices of food especially if it's good like this place I moved away from Compton about a year and half ago and I still go back home and eat at Buffalo spot I always get a 10 piece tenders with but now they don't even have a 10 piece and your telling me 8 chicken strips are 35$ i understand inflation but this ain't not steak yes I'll gladly pay the price for the food like I ended up doing so sadly but yea buffalo spot do better DONT FORGET WHERE YOU COME FROM great food just terrible prices

    Justian M.

    I come here spot not bad food not bad BUT the amount of chicken or shrimp u get is beyond me and I'm not even one to complain but how do I order a small shrimp buffalo fries they only put 5 shrimp and added little chicken pieces in there to make it seem like more waste of money!

I recommend ordering the whole or half chickens so you get different cuts of meat. Personally, I enjoy thigh meat while my husband prefers breast or wings so it was easy for us to split the different cuts. We ordered two different halves one soy garlic and the other was red hot pepper. We both have pretty good spice tolerances and the spiciness of the red hot pepper was just on point. The chicken comes out freshly prepared so it's hot and crunchy. We ordered a side of the corn cheese which is a must for me anytime I get Korean fried chicken. They also give you sides of cabbage and pickled radish which I find provides a good palette cleanser through the meal. The meal was a bit pricy coming out to ~$60 for two people, but I also brought home 4 pieces for leftovers. This place would probably be considered more affordable if you came with a bigger group to you can split multiple orders.

This is the worst out of all visits... I couldn't believe I had to have an attitude with your Manager, she was so incompetent in the situation and her best response is "I just work here" took absolutely no ownership in the situation, and was so uninterested on helping. She didn't know how to process an exchange and redo the order., and if your phone line was only working so I can call in to tell them to remove the onions, none of this would've happened, You should empower your staff and give them the authorization to do things when you're not around, so this kind of screw-up doesn't happen again. I'm irritated, This is not how I wanted to spend my weekend.

Each time we passed by, it seemed like they were closed and or never answered their phone when we called to see if they were open. We kept telling each other one day we're going to stop by and see if they actually are open. So on Friday after exiting the freeway I made my way to Jim Dandy and saw folks going in and coming out. This location is in the middle of the hood. They have bulletproof windows once inside and this location is order and pickup, no dining available. I didn't see the menu until I was done with ordering. Which made it hard for myself. I seen the menu after I ordered. I walked out with 12 pieces of chicken regular not spicy. Corn fritters, macaroni salad, peach cobbler and a banana pudding. Once home we set up our table and began to devour our food. We were blown away with the chicken it is better than most places we have been to not saying any names. The pieces of chicken were huge fresh and crispy. The macaroni salad was just right amount of mayo and seasoning. The peach cobbler was wrapped perfectly not damaging the crust. The banana pudding was a little watery not sure if that was due to the heat going on in the bag as everything was bagged together. I immediately put it in refrigerator so it could get cold and become solid than running. I have no idea what there hours are next time I go in I'll ask or look for signs. There is plenty parking not that folks stay long. Food seems to come out in a timely manner. So parking comes and goes. I cannot wait to try there dirty rice and corn fritters without the powder sugar. I didn't get a photo of them as they got devoured.

The guy who took my order also handled putting everything together, and you can tell when someone's on it--nothing was missing and everything came out right. I ordered a 3-piece, and it definitely hit the spot. The chicken was flavorful and satisfying, and the onion rings were just as good--crispy and delicious. I got there a little late, and it felt like a true local spot. Everyone was relaxed, just there for some really good fried chicken. No hype--just good food.

If the feeling of "I don't want to be here" could be personified, it would look like Angel. Angel was turned around, I said hello and he turned around but didn't make eye contact but he had a mean scowl on his face. Angel said it'd be five minutes for us to be seated. I said cool. Angel walked away. A few other people pull up after we arrived and out of nowhere, another server by the name of Abram comes by and looks at the waiting list. Abram walks over to one of the couples that arrived after us and asks what name they had listed on the waiting list and then walks them over to sit them. A few moments later, Angel returns and tells Abram that we'd arrived first but Abram shrugged and then they started whispering amongst themselves. We continued to wait for about ten minutes while Abram just stands around being completely useless. Abram never said a single word to us. Not an apology for the delay. Not a single acknowledgement. Abram kept looking up at the ceiling, perhaps praying to a deity that we disappear and leave. We opted to make Abram's prayer come true by leaving. Based on the tacky signage posted, it's easy to see why this has such a low rating. Avoid.

Plenty to share with the table. 12-Piece Extra Crispy Chicken Wings $22.99 | 9/10 We got lemon pepper and soy garlic. Lemon pepper was way better than soy garlic for me! I really liked the crispy batter and seasoning on the wings. I'd definitely come back for these. Sweet Potato Pizza $18.99 | 7/10 Very unique! The sweet potato flavor on a pizza is definitely something I'm not used to. It was a little too sweet for me, but I'm glad we tried it. Bulgogi Pizza $21.99 | 8/10 This was definitely the better of the two pizzas for me. I much preferred the savory bulgogi flavor and would order this one again. Soju $14 Can't go wrong with some soju to go with Korean fried chicken! Overall, a solid spot for Korean fried chicken, pizza, and drinks with a group. The wings were definitely the highlight for me, especially the lemon pepper!

When I got home I realized despite saying bbq sauce on the side, they still sauced my wings and they were soggy by the time I got home so I needed to put them in the air fryer. The chicken had good flavor because of the sauce but it was not seasoned. The tenders were nice size, crispy and SPICY! their dry rub definitely was extremely spicy to the point I couldn't finish all 3 tenders. The fries were fresh crispy and seasoned and really good.
