If you are a fan of delicious food, packed with flavor, then I suggest coming in!…read moreI love KBBQ and am so glad this joint opened up. Its so heartwarming to see two sisters open up a shop and create delicous culinary meals, sharing their culture and love for food with the rest of us. I am grateful I was introduced to this restaurant by a friend because I now have a solid go-to joint whenever I'm hungry. The parking is tight, but you can get lucky. I ordered the two meat combo plate and it was incredible. I ordered the beef bulgogi and fried chicken, so bomb!! It comes with my choice of purple rice, then some other fixings like radish and Kimchi. Amazing. High recommend!

Price is affordable, staff is nice, place is pretty small so it's for to-go purchases only. Whenever I'm in the area I like to check if they have anything available at the end of day to pick up.

I appreciate the generous amount of cheese and how well the burgers are cooked and tasted.But for how much the fries cost i've never received FRESH fries, they are constantly kinda cold when received.

(didn't go in their bathroom) the place was nice and clean, definitely clean enough to feel comfortable to eat there again. besides those 100+ drink dispensers those are always a messy mess

I'd be way more pissed if we paid normal price.

The Burgers are always juicy, fries are usually perfectly cooked, and there only one size or fountain drink. They do have two people seats inside if you need to sit but definitely not enough room for family to sit together. Services is good always polite. Keep in mind if you want any ranch you have to pay extra and also extra for cheese. They share parking with other businesses, the 7/11 is usually busy but we've never had a problem finding a spot.

Counter seating. Notice the seasoned salt shaker attached to the counter, so you can salt your fries.

I placed my order online (as I normally do) for my usual 3 tender combo with no toast, extra fries, and a large fountain drink. When I picked up my order, it was not busy as I tend to order around 10ish a.m. prior to the lunch rush. The restaurant was immaculate and the employee who gave me my order was very friendly and provided good service asking me if I wanted more ketchup with my order. I work only 2.5 miles away so when I ate my lunch at work, the tenders were really small and the breading was soggy and coming off. The fries were lukewarm and soggy and there weren't any extra fries from what I could tell. I was so disappointed as I was really looking forward to my meal since I hadn't had Canes in over a year *sigh*. If I do have a craving again, I will try out a different Canes.

Not sure as to what I wanted to eat for lunch, I was leaning towards a cheeseburger and fries, and I was not disappointed (with my food nor the price). I ended up ordering the cheeseburger combo which came with fries and a drink. I ordered my patty well done along with the fries crispy and I forgot to order it without mustard and thank heavens it doesn't come with it (just mayo). Burger was cooked to perfection (well done but not dry) & the fries were piping hot and crispy! I also appreciated real ketchup bottles at one station along with a help yourself to the little yellow hot peppers! Will definitely be back and glad this place is around to give Carson Burgers some heated competition (haven't tried a cheeseburger and fries from Carson Burgers yet)!
