Review is based on takeout experience! I got the cheesling and the Gangnam style boneless chicken, as well as the secret fries. The fries themselves were amazing - a little sweet that goes well with the mayo. The chicken was very juicy and they're quite generous with the marinade. The pieces were large and well seasoned, will definitely come back read more

Food: 4 Stars Service: 4 Stars Ambience: 4 Stars Fill Factor: Filling A buddy and I came here recently and everything was good. We ordered some bulgogi fries and 4 varieties of chicken. The fries tasted good with a lot of sauce (so much so it leaked through the basket into a big pool on the table). I want to tell you which chicken flavours we had and what it tasted like but I think they mixed up our orders so I have no idea what flavours they ended up bringing. The portions were big on all the orders and everything tasted pretty good overall although there were some flavours I liked more than others. Aside from the mix up the service here was generally good and the atmosphere seemed chill so no complaints on that end. Overall, I wouldn't mind visiting again and if you are looking for some chicken this place is not a bad choice. read more

The menu item is called "Secret Sauce," but there's so little sauce on it that it's basically plain, even though they charged extra for the sauce. read more

While craving fried chicken, we decided to check out this franchise that can be found throughout the city. The plaza is very run down and slightly sketchy, but once you enter the restaurant it feels fine. The decor fun and reminiscent of an American bar. We ordered the cheeseballs, the cheesling fried chicken and a basket of fries. The portions were enough for two adults, especially with the generous portion of perfectly fried fries. The cheeseballs were fun, especially as you can order one of each flavors. But we are here for the chicken, which they definitely delivered on. Rich, crunchy and moist. The cheesling powder is slightly sweet, so it is a good balance against the cheese flavor. Delicious and I'm sure I will be craving it again. read more

Lovely location. Came here after a very long day and drive to enjoy some delicious food. We got sat down quickly and read through the menu. Tried a few new items we've never had along with one that we did like before. The waiter was very nice and patient with us. Food got out quickly and was like lava in your mouth.. so we had to wait for it to cool down. The interior seemed fairly new. Overall, great experience read more

Haven't been back to BBQ Chicken for over a year and they certainly have a lot of new flavours on the menu! We ordered the bone-in black pepper chicken which was more of a dry rub style. And man was it peppery! It really had a kick to it and at times I found it a bit too spicy for me. Keep in mind, my spicy tolerance is low. The batter was crispy and you can tell that it was seasoned before it was battered as there was a bit of red powder/layer in between. What was quite impressive was that the crushed black pepper stuck to the battery quite well. I really like the portion size as it wasn't too big for 2 people to have with some veggies and carbs. Got to have a balance diet, right? read more

Mymy, dakgogi, the fry move over. Daddy's here. Half half with soy garlic & secret - 47$. Fat juicy pieces of chicken. No dry white meat. This is what we're asking for. Soy garlic and secret was perfect - not too spicy for a casual eater like myself. Although the prices are a bit high these days, they're on par with the other top chains. read more

Tried this for takeout with friends and the chicken was great. I liked that the packaging let the steam out to ensure that it would not be soggy. We got 4 flavours and all were great. Original, honey garlic, spicy and cheese. And the part that surprised me was after a 10-15 min drive home the quality of the chicken was still there. read more

Ordered bb.q for takeout dinner and holy THIS WAS SOOO GOOD ITS STILL MY FAVOURITE KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN PLACE IDC WHAT YALL SAY I been on a mission to find my fav and this sits at the top!! We got their honey garlic (my personal fav), gang-jeong (fav amongst my peers) and their cheesling chicken (new favourite) as well as their Secret fries (so yummy) The chicken is crispy fresh and juicy while evenly coated in sauce, the cheesling chicken has a nice outer crust that breaks off once u bite it and has a nice sweet and savoury cheese flavour, the fries were thin and almost reminiscent of mcdonald's fries with a korean sweet sauce and mayo which paired perfectly with the chicken. This really hit the spot for dinner and I recommend ordering from them if you are in need of a good hearty meal read more

4.5 stars Great quality chicken, perfectly fried and the sauces are fantastic. I was with a small group and with tried the soy garlic, gangnam and mala. Though I usually have a preference for spicy - well even here I do too, but the soy garlic is a great taste that can even briefly set aside my craving for spicy chicken. The gagnam had a nice savoury taste to it, and only being mildly spicy and should be accessible for most. I most enjoyed the mala and would get that again in a heartbeat. Definitely spicier than the gagnam and almost a szechwan taste to it. Some other KFC places offer more to choose from in terms of side or even main dishes, but to be fair, from their very title they're here for the chicken and they do it very well. read more

I decided to order takeout from bb.q chicken&pub. This was my first time ordering food from here. I wanted to try two different flavours so I ordered the secret sauced wings and the soy garlic chicken. You get quite a lot of chicken for the price, which was nice. The chicken was super crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The reason why I took off 2 stars is because of the flavours. The secret sauced wings were sweet and slightly spicy. They were just okay in terms of flavour, I got sick of them really quickly. The soy garlic chicken had an unusual flavour. It had a strong metallic flavour but it was also a bit sweet. I'm not generally picky with wing flavours but these two weren't my favourite. But I did really like how the chicken was cooked and would love to try different flavours from this place! read more

This restaurant became my favourite place for Korean deep fried chicken. I made 3 visits in a month and their food was always good. I remember they were having a lunch promo 20% off on selected food items including rice and chicken. I rank their Gangjeong chicken 1st. It is a Korean traditional sauce with red pepper, garlic and some sweet flavour. Their honey garlic chicken was also good! I prefer their boneless chicken over bone in chicken because it is different from typical western fried chicken. They used dark meat to make bone less chicken so it was tender and juicy! Note: they offer snack when you first go in and it is random snack. Their house made chips were soooo good! read more

Over the weekend, I decided to spoil myself with some fried chicken. The last two times I visited, I ordered their classic Golden Fried Chicken and Secret Sauce Chicken. This time around, I wanted to give their other flavours a try and ordered Cheesling and Soy Garlic. Of the two flavours, I found the Cheesling one to be perfect! The chicken was nice and juicy and the powdered cheese is the best thing I ever had! The Soy Garlic was delicious, however, I found the meat to be a little dryer compared to Cheesling. I'm guessing it's because the chicken got cooked a little longer in the freshly made hot soy garlic sauce? Regardless, I really enjoy their chicken and look forward to trying their other flavours next time. Cheesling is definitely a flavour I will order again! If you haven't already tried it, you are really missing out! read more

This was a different Korean fried chicken place I tried with a friend. The nice thing is they offer to split two flavours which is an amazing option. We got Cheeseling and Spicy Hot. The spicy hot was a good flavour - but definitely mild and not hot. The Cheeseling was an interesting flavour profile, the first couple of bites were delicious but afterwards, I didn't like it for some reason. My friend decided to try their rice cakes and she said the sauce was spicy! It tastes like traditional rice cakes! My friend pointed out that the sauce on the Spicy Hot was cold even though the chicken itself was hot. So not sure what that was about. Anyway overall, pretty good, they have some cool flavours like Mala Hot, which Ill look forward to next time. COVID: temperature check and filling out a short contract tracking form (name and phone number). At the tables, you have hand sanitizer and they bring you service wipes as well. They're serious about it which I like a lot. read more

We ordered Secret Sauced and Gangnam Style Fried Chicken (Bone-in). Definitely the best! The secret sauced is super saucy and crispy. The gangnam style is a must try! A more savory style, and I personally love it so much! Generous portion for the chicken compared the one we had in North York inside (M&M supermarket) - totally different taste. We also get the cheesling fries, however, the fries it self is cold already. But the cheese can't go wrong. We will be back to try other flavours! Follow @astravel_eats on Instagram. read more

Amazing Korean fried chicken. This is more a take out joint and during this pandemic for sure takeout is the way to go. I called ahead and drove 60km all the way from Burlington for these bad boys. The cheeseling boneless chicken is to die for. These have powdered cheese and they're oh so good. I already tried their bone in and we just wanted to have a simpler time eating it so we got the large (full chicken) boneless cheeseling one for about $30+. I also ordered their sweet spicy or spicy secret sauce boneless chicnen one, too and it was terrific. Hardly spicy at all. Still crunchy beneath all that sauce. I called ahead and the order was ready 45 minutes later. Awesome. read more

I split a large boneless half & half with a co-worker. We went with the Original Fried and the Secret Spicy! Let me start by saying the Large is huge! It was 16 large pieces. 8 Original and 8 Secret Spicy. The Secret Spicy sauce from what I have read is imported from Korea. It was sweet with a little kick. I would put it on the mild side. They don't skimp on the sauce. All the pieces were coated nicely. The star of the show for me was the Original Fried. The pieces were super crispy with a light batter. The inside was cooked to perfection and all the pieces were extra juicy. No dry chicken here! The outside coating was spiced perfectly. They even had a little kick that made you want to eat more! Of the two flavours this was my favourite today. They have many other flavours which I'm sure over the next few months I will get through more of them! read more

Hyped-up! Bought 1xsmall of golden fried chicken, $12.99 Bought 1xsmall of honey garlic chicken, $13.99 Both bone-in. Unlike KFC, Popeyes, Mary Brown's or Jollibee, bb.q chicken consists of cut-pieces NOT whole thighs/breast/ribs. With both small orders, it consisted of the following: 1 leg 1 wing (wing-part) 1 wing (leg-part) 1 breast (cut into 3 pieces) 1 rib (cut into 2 pieces) = 8 pieces at $12.99! RIP-off. Totally! A moist toilette/2 chopsticks/napkins were included in my order. Must be the reason why their chicken is expensive and cut-up in small pieces (need chopsticks) whereas with KFC,Popeyes, Mary Brown's and Jollibee's whole chicken pieces, one must simply use their hands. Taste-wise, Popeyes & Jollibee are better. read more

Delicious and awesome service! Its takes about 20 mins for the order to come out. I have enjoyed their chicken for the last year. We probably order every other week. My personal favorite is the Golden Fried chicken. The Cheesling chicken is also very popular in our home. I introduced this to co-workers and they were immediately hooked. It is that good! Another star is the pickled raddish. Great with alternating bites of the chicken. Its always so enjoyable eating the food here. read more

[2020 Take-Out] I was in the area visiting my parents, and decided to get some KFC for them. Opted for the half/half combo, fries, and spicy rice cakes. The Secret Spicy Chicken was seriously addicting, and the sauce had a nice kick to it. The Original was crispy, but not oily at all. I don't recommend their fries though, as it was soggy and not good (at least to me). read more

bb.q Chicken&Pub - ws a box of fried chicken - Korean Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Bb.q is one of the top 3 fried chicken franchises in South Korea that have been popular since the 90's. My recommendation is - Golden Fried/Honey Garlic/Gangnam Style & Cheese Balls. The price is a little bit steep but it's worth it, they price up for ubereats so it's best to call and order for pick up as of now. p.s. You can also get some at HMART if you can't visit the branches. - Update: The flavour is not up to par from when they initially opened but still good! The chicken seems a bit oily though.. probably due to the large amounts of orders they get which results in oil temperature fluctuation. This time, my cheese balls had a hint of chili pepper??? I quite liked the hint of spice but surprised as these are not supposed to be spicy.. perhaps was fried along with some chilis that go in another person's order. read more

10/10 DELICIOUS FOOD & GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. The employees were great, once you enter the place they ask right away for how many people and take each and everyone's temperature before asking for COVID-19 symptoms. The place takes per cautions and takes social distancing seriously, sanitizer bottles are placed in each and every table, masks are worn by employees and wipes are given to each and every customer to use before & after eating. Love that for them Now talking about the food and offers, Me and my friend had free drinks on the house as an offer & ordered the Half&Half A. Golden fried + Secret spicy. Also got a free appetizer (Cheese Balls) as an offer of buying the chicken. They do have other offers which they tell you about and if you aren't sure about things the employees are accommodating/attentive/nice to assist you. Don't be shy and JUST ASK! Overall, Employees check up on you every now and then to see if you need anything, loving the followup on customers. The place gives a K-drama like vibe w an unique aesthetic, good for friends/family/groups as there is 2 TV screens to watch from as well, music is up to date w a mix of TB songs. WOULD RECOMMEND IF YOUR READING THIS. read more

This spot is a true gem! I can't believe I haven't tried this place before. I've had Korean fried chicken from Galleria and HMart but this seriously tops both! Ordered the Half & Half which is the Golden Fried + Secret Spicy for $28.99 (only comes in the large size). The chicken is super juicy and the outside is crispy without being greasy/oily at all. Definitely try this spot out if you're a fan of Korean fried chicken. read more

Recently dined in for the first time instead of getting take out. It's a small place but wasn't crowded at all. I always get the boneless secret sauce chicken and it's pretty consistently good, would recommend if you like more of a sweet sauce. Would also recommend the cheesling fries and I think they recently started using thicker fries. The chicken wasn't ready that fast but it is a pretty small place that gets a lot of orders. Overall still remains one of my go-to kfc spots in the city. read more

I won't bother posting pics, there's more than enough. This place is first in Ontario but franchises all over. Amazing how fast this franchise grew, but not surprising. They have the Korean fried chicken down pat. So many variations, many very unique. Great take away packaging. Fresh and moist. Gotta have this. read more

The best fried chicken I have ever had! The customer service is also exemplary. I ordered half original, half spicy, and it is absolutely delicious. I am definitely looking forward to trying other flavours next time I order. I have passed this restaurant so many times, and I wish that I had gone sooner. Absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend. read more

Best korean fried chicken spot in the city! My go to's are always the Sir Fried, Secret Sauce, Galbi, Soy Garlic. So happy that Toronto is getting more and more of the korean food scene! Will be back soon to try their new cheeseballs! read more

Great chicken and fries! Wish they had a closer location in Markham, drove here to try and not disappointed

Love the different flavours this restaurant offers for fried chicken! They have a variety of flavours that we've never seen before. Unfortunately they don't have their alcohol license yet, however they're offering free pop in the mean time. We ordered the Galbi Q and the Sir Fried and it was delicious. Portions were huge and the chicken was juicy. The food was great, customer service was amazing. Just a wonderful experience overall! read more

I am a huge fan of KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) & trust me when I say I've tried alooot of spots all over the city and no, it's not because of CLOY, but the quality of their chicken, the portion and the flavour choices! I think I've tried almost every single one of them. (Almost b/c I'm not huge on spice ehe) but I could not recommend this place enough to friends and family -- does not disappoint. Their sides are also very yummy! If you dine-in, they tend to give you snacks to munch on while you wait (I love the honey butter chips they give out!). They also always run promotions and contests on their social media accounts so make sure to follow them! read more

I'll admit I was first drawn to this place because I saw it in Crash Landing on You ... but the chicken was amazing and it is now one of my favourite Korean Fried Chicken restaurants! I got the half sized Secret Spicy. It wasn't too spicy so you could still taste the other flavours of the sauce such as garlic. I can't wait to go back and try other flavours! read more

Did they change management? Not happy that their quality declined, their sauces are kinda bland and diluted, chicken was overcooked and tough. Also their service level dropped. I never liked their included pickled radish and asked for a substitute. They always offered dipping sauce or an alternative, but this time the server taking the phone order simply said too bad. Spent 40$+ for some fried chicken and they wouldn't accommodate a small customer request. Way to lose a customer read more

The food here is incredible. The chicken is fried but juicy on the inside why quite crispy outside. portion size for price is great. the sauces are AMAZING. definitely recommend ! read more

The fried chicken here is spectaculor! I had ordered a box of Korean fried chicken a few days ago and I am lost for words to discribe how good it was. The delievery was fast, the food was in perfect condition when it arrived; and the staff were splendid. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants great fried chicken for a great price. read more

First time to try their chicken. It is take out only. We ordered Half & Half (Golden Fried Chicken & Spicy Chicken), Duk-bokki, and Cheese Ball. Sorry I did not get a chance to take pictures because we are starving already and ate in the car. Chicken is really good and crunchy! For people who has PEANUT allergy, be careful. My son got reaction (not sure which above mentioned foods) caused him to have hives. I have injected him with epipen at home and rushed to emergency. read more

Once you have their golden fried chicken you won't go back to any other fried chicken!!! There are times I order it twice in one day! They have bone in and boneless options... their regular seasoned fries are great too... their fried chicken is unique because it's made with olive oil read more

Great restaurant to go to with your friends! Fresh chicken, good fries, could work on the patio but great place to go to
