Absolutely delicious chicken. Fave is soy garlic and honey garlic also good. Rose tteoboki is additive. Fyi...they have better fried chicken than ones I tried in Seoul, no kidding! read more

I've loved other bb.q Chicken locations, so I was really excited when one opened near me. My absolute favorite is the Cheesling wings. It's such a unique flavor that you can't easily find elsewhere, and it's the reason I keep coming back to bb.q Chicken. Unfortunately, the Cheesling wings at this location have been really inconsistent. The last couple of times I've ordered them, the Cheesling powder was only lightly sprinkled on top instead of fully coating the wings, so they looked nothing like the photos on the menu. It almost seemed like the wings were placed into the to-go box first and then the powder was sprinkled over them. At other locations, I've watched them toss the wings in the Cheesling powder first, giving them a thick, even coating before boxing them up. The other flavors have been pretty consistent, but it's disappointing that my favorite item hasn't been. Service has also been quite slow on several visits. I really hope they improve because I'd love to support this location. But if the Cheesling wings continue to be this inconsistent, I'll probably just make the drive to one of the other Bay Area locations whenever I'm craving them. read more

I ordered the 8pc bone in wings. They said the secret sauce and honey garlic were their most popular choice of sauces. I decided on the secret sauce. Also an order of fries. The fries came out first. Unfortunately the wings took a long time to come out. The place wasn't that busy either (one online order pickup ahead of me). The sauce chosen was just okay. My chicken wings and fries totaled to $30 which is pretty pricey IMO. Overall the experience was good. However the cost is just way too high. read more

Was an okay Korean Fried chicken spot. Been wanting to try this place out ever since I've been other chain locations. Went here with some friends and ended up getting 3 small orders of different flavors; consisting of Soy Garlic, Golden Original, and Honey Garlic. All were fried great as we've come to expect of Korean Fried Chicken. But of the 3, the soy garlic was the best with the Golden Original being kind of bland. Also ended up ordering the Kimchi Fried Rice as a side was okay. Was excited to try it with the runny egg on top but was disappointing. Service is what you'd come to expect of any counter service place as you place your order at the register and they bring it out to you when ready. Overall, with places like Bonchan and Von's chicken, it's hard for me to place this place over those two. read more

*** 3.5 stars *** Newish Korean-fried chicken chain offering signature fried and BBQ-style chicken tossed in sweet, tangy and/or spicy sauces. Walked in, quickly greeted and order taken. You can also use the self-ordering kiosk near the counter to bypass the line. First time visiting and tried the soy-garlic flavor thinking it would be less sweet than the other options. Wings were crispy, juicy but a bit saucy and a tad too sweet for me that I could only eat 2 wings. Also, wasn't a fan of the exterior and prefer a lighter coating. The onion rings were light, crispy, not oily and delicious. Overall, a good try (possibly try again) and request for 1/2 the amount of sauce. This location is outside of Hmart and a better to avoid the chaos in the food court and the parking lot. Block away (across from Burger King) on the corner. For now, I'll stick to my fave mom-and-son KFC place in Hayward! :D No outdoor seating. read more

Service was basic online order and pick up. Kimchi fried rice 3/5, too much bell pepper bits, not enough kimchi, not enough spice. Honey Garlic 4/5. Wings were good, drums had thick coating of flour. Well cooked. I ordered 'wings' but they also gave drums. 2/5. Good type of food for to go orders. Place looks suitable for single, group, and family. Very causal. read more

Fried chicken! Mmm We ordered 3 flavors: golden original, honey garlic and soy garlic. All were so tasty and fried and crunchy to perfection. My fave was the honey garlic. The garlic and honey flavors were evenly distributed and not super saucy. The soy garlic was good and it didn't taste too sweet like some other places. And the golden original had a good crunch. Ordered these to go and everything came out fresh. read more

I didn't realize that there was a bb.q in Dublin until we stopped by on our way home. I really enjoy Korean fried chicken so of course I had to stop by to try it out. I can't remember if I've ever been to a bb.q before, but I felt like it was my first time here. It was 8pm on a Friday evening and was quite packed but there were still a good amount of tables available. The restaurant feels like I ordered two small orders of their wings since I wanted to try two different flavors - Gangnam Style (savory and sweet) and Soy Garlic (soy sauce, garlic, and honey). Both wings were delicious (saucy and crispy on the outside), but I did enjoy the Soy Garlic more since it was savory and garlicky. I thought the Gangnam tasted more medicinal, most likely because of the cinnamon I think was what the staff told me? Overall, a great spot for those who enjoy Korean fried chicken. Their pieces are decently sized too. I would like to try different wing flavors that they have and even other items in their menu. read more

The food used to be consistent, but a recent string of terrible customer service and cutting corners means I won't be back. Originally, I appreciated how consistent the chicken was, though I was disappointed when they stopped selling the chicken gizzard. However, the service has completely tanked. On a previous visit, the staff member helping me kept yawning and could barely hear my order, which felt highly unprofessional. My latest visit was the final straw. The food barely had any sauce on it. When I asked for extra sauce to fix it, they actually tried to charge me for it. To make matters worse, it's clear management doesn't care. If you look at their reviews, the business owner purposely ignores feedback--never replying to bad reviews or looking for ways to improve their business. Save your money and go somewhere that actually values its customers. read more

The chicken was made to order so fresh & crispy ! We didn't like that the wings weren't tossed in the sauce but basically drizzled on. Bulgogi Japchae was hot , it didn't have mushroom more cabbage & shredded carrots pretty basic & a tad bland . Bonus - everything was hot & fresh . Don't like that you can't split flavors & you have cups for beverages. Suggestion you should have a water dispenser by your cups, they do have water for you to purchase which I think is a tad ridiculous offer your guest complimentary water. I'm sure tour guest's would truly appreciate. Your competitor brings water automatically. It could be that we're just spoiled & use to hospitality at competitor . The cashier was nice , it wasn't too busy there were a couple of tables a total of 4 & a couple of take outs . Fast & casual the interior very clean . Then we went to HMART & got desserts & WOW ! They have a bb.q Chicken in the food court ! Would we come back probable b/c it's convenient but we would rather travel the distance to eat on plates & silverware & not plastic & paper bowls . read more

Found this amazing spot while driving by Dublin. We were craving for some chicken wings and this place popped out. We were surprised to see that their chicken wings are bigger than usual. We had the original, galbi and soy garlic. All were awesome but my favorite has to be the soy garlic. Wings were completely smothered in sauce but remained crunchy! The Rose Ddeok-bokki was a perfect side dish. It was on the spicy side though so if you can't bear the heat, maybe skip it this time. Also love the Kimchi Fried Rice. Pairs well with the original-flavored chicken wings. The place was spacious, well-ventilated and tidy. I love that their water dispensers are always full of ice. Staff were fast, attentive and nice. Honestly wish they had a branch closer to home! read more

This was a last minute decision to have a quick lunch here. We had an appt and had to make it quick. This fast food Korean place was nice and open. Still looks new. Very visible from the street and plenty of parking. Staff were ok. We tried their Rose' pasta and small order of asst Garlic wings. So the wings were way too bready and a little fatty but good flavor. The Rose' pasta had no flavor but had a hint of spice. Pretty quick service and decent prices but not sure I would come to eat here again. [7R,2026] read more

Love how there's so much seating here, its very open and we didn't have to wait for a seat. We got the soy garlic boneless 8 piece chicken and it was so flavorful. It's got a little bit of a kick and was so tender. They give free sides of pickled radish and it goes so well with the chicken. Free gloves are given to eat with and makes the eating experience more enjoyable! Would come again!! read more

bb.q Chicken - Soy garlic, rosè teokbokki, Golden Original Wings - Chicken Shop Near Me - Dublin, California

Had a chance to try out this place on a Saturday after lunch rush hour. I was hoping they would do a half and half sauce with 8pc because all the sauces looked interesting. But unfortunately that's a no no. We tried Rose tteokbokki 3.75/5 It's a creamy tteokbokki. A little less spicy than the regular one. But it's yummy. I would prefer the spice level to be a little higher. Secret sauce 8 wings 3.5/5 The batter crunch is amazing. The sauce is yummy but a tad too sweet to me. It has garlic, some sort of citrusy taste (orange?) and pepper. It's listed at 2 fire level but honestly we couldn't taste the spice. The chicken pieces cooked well and tasted very fresh. The pickled raddish tastes just ok, I've had much better one. I don't know if it's because the wings are so sweet that the pickled raddish tastes muted or what. Fries 4/5 These fries are so crunchy. It's one of the best fries we've ever had in the area. Overall it was very enjoyable. The service could be better. I know everything is made fresh to order. However, just to warn people, took our chicken order over 20min to arrive during non rush dining hour. So keep that in mind and don't expect a fast food order experience. Overall I would give the place a 3.75/5 read more

Glad to see a location in the East Bay! We ordered a small order of the golden original and the soy garlic. Came out piping hot after about 15 minutes. Safe to say the quality is the same - very crispy and flavorful chicken. Comes with side of radish which is a perfect addition. Fries were super crispy. Seating is ample and the restaurant is very clean. Overall, a great experience. read more

bb.q Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Dublin, California

bb.q Chicken opened 5ish month ago where Starbucks once was. Walls retrofitted with 5 flatscreens: 3 for sports, 1 for K-pop videos, one for ?. Beer themes, chicken promos on walls. bb.q Chicken has been around for 30 years in S. Korea. Not all Korean Fried Chicken are alike. Each has its unique, artisan cooking techniques. Was acknowledged by service person at counter upon my entry. Ordered. Paid. Food brought to table in 20ish minutes. Not busy. 2 big take out orders ahead of me. Offerings (Chicken): wings, boneless wings, whole chicken, combo specials, Western specials, Korean specials, drinks. Rice bowl, D-deoki-Bokki(rice cake), half & half (chicken/wings) Bites: boneless combo: 6 pieces boneless wings-gang jeong flavor, French fries, Diet Coke (14.99) -French fry-straight cut. Crispy texture, semi-soggy innards. -boneless wings had "wet" texture, sauce added after frying process. No "crispy" crunch. 2 star spicy not too spicy, had sweet & soy sauce ambiance. Innards very juicy/tender. More like a "tender" than boneless wing. Very fresh tasting from fresh refrigerated chicken, not frozen. 4.5 stars Worthy. Quality: unique boneless wings similar to "tenders". Quantity: similar to other KFC. Pricier, takes longer to prepare. *parking lanes very narrow. Use caution. read more

Second time at this location and it seems like they're getting into their groove. With many flavors to choose from, it's hard to discern one from another unless you've tried them all. Safe starter bets are the Original Golden (a tad spicy if you're sensitive), the Soy Ginger (not-spicy, but sweet and delicious), and then ramp up from there. I can take Thai heat and found that the Wings of Fire were quite hot, the kind that accumulates. The side of daikon is a nice and clean compliment to the chicken. Cheeseling is a cheese powder that they use to flavor some items like the Cheeseling chicken or the Cheeseling fries. Kids liked it. A handful of the menu items don't have any description or photo (Oden Soup, for example), but you come for the chicken and today's chicken met the BB.Q standards we've come to know and love (in Los Angeles - home to one of the best K-Towns in USA, and the famous Kyochon and BonChon - who arguably ushered in the latest KFC renaissance back in the 2000's - 2010's) They operate with a skeleton crew, but service is friendly and helpful. Everything is made to order, so can take a bit of time, but it's worth it. So if you're in a hurry, or have a limited-time lunch break - order ahead. I can see them taking a while if the place gets busy. Lots of parking read more

Hands down one of the best Korean fried chicken spot in tri valley. Vons used to be my go to but bbq is way better. Super crispy skin and tender meat. Lightly drizzle on the sauce so the chicken stays crispy and not get soggy. The Rose Ddukbokki was absolutely incredible. Nice heat with rich/creamy sauce. Rice cake wasnt too chewy. I dipped my chicken in the sauce because it was that good. Already looking forward to coming back. 5/5 read more

bb.q Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Dublin, California

bb.q chicken is our FAVORITE fried chicken in the bay. We've tried a few different flavors: soy garlic, honey garlic, spicy garlic, gangjeong, and wings of fire. Honey garlic is my favorite, with gangjeong as a runner up- while my boyfriend loves the wings of fire (he's a spicy lover). All the flavors here run pretty sweet, so come if you enjoy the sweet and savory vibe. These wings are super juicy, extra crispy with thick, light breading, and very saucy. My only issue with this chain is their inflexible menu. You can't mix and match the wings or whole chicken, even though they just toss the chicken in premade sauces. You also can't choose all drums or all wings, even for an up charge. Still, we'll keep coming back because it's our top pick. read more

First time trying this location out, hopefully it exceeds expectations from the LA location. So far the ambiance is nice, chill, clean. Staff are friendly, helpful, and on top of everything as far as food recommendations and speed of food being made in the kitchen. Sorry (no photos on chicken) late night meal while in the road. We ordered the Gangnam style boneless wings, very flavorful, crispy and tangy. We also picked up soy garlic wings, flavor to die for, very crispy and rich. Wish other county would have one this restaurant. read more

This is such a spacious establishment. The staff was very friendly and helpful as a first time customer. I got the original fried chicken which had the perfect breading and fried to perfection! I felt it lacked flavor. 6/10 I also got the Gangnam style flavor fried chicken, that was a 10/10 it was perfect! Great flavor and spice level. The chicken fried rice was blah, I didn't like the flavors or that the mixed bag of veggies are in it. But I like the fried egg on top. A tip I would give is call ahead, the chicken is made to order so it takes a good 20 minutes. I'm going back for sure. read more

We have been wanting to try bb.q chicken and didn't want to cook Toni gf t so it was a good time to try it. You go to the counter to order. The clerk was friendly. She took our order and gave us our drinks. She said it would take 25 Minutes for our chicken. They have lots of TVs so we passed the time watching the Australia tennis match. Our onion rings came out first. They were large and crispy. I thought they needed salt. Our boneless chicken came out a few minutes later. The serving size was large. We could have share one but wanted different flavors. My husband got the golden original and I got the galbi. The chicken was tender and juicy. The golden original has a crispy coating. The gal I has a sweet sauce. They were accompanied by a small container of pickled radish. I took home 1/2 of my chicken but my husband was able to finish his. He also had a soju to drink. The restruant was clean. The music was a little loud for me but was easy to listen to. Our bill totaled $50. I felt we got our money's worth. read more

I saw that this finally opened and was excited to try! Service here was great - greeted us when we walked in, gave us recs from the menu, and was friendly. You'll have to order from the cashier, then pick a table where the food will be delivered. Utensils and napkins are on the counter. They offer so many chicken flavors - their most popular ones are the honey garlic and the soy garlic. Wait times were longer than expected despite few tables open. I'd recommend ordering sides and other dishes. The quality of the fried chicken was absolutely worth it. I was concerned about the reviews but I had a great time. Soy Garlic - it was delightful. So crispy. Great flavor once you take a bite. 10/10 for me. Corn Cheese - sweet, cheesy, delicious So Ddeok - sausage and rice cake. Sauce was more on the spicier side. read more

bb.q Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Dublin, California

ordered the Spicy Chicken and asked for the sauce on the side so I could safely feed the unspiced inner meat to my 1-year-old baby. The cashier coldly refused and snapped, "That will be an extra charge." Even after I explained multiple ways that it was for my baby's safety, he still flat-out refused to put it on the side. I wasn't asking for free extras; I was just a parent trying to feed my toddler. This place cares more about a few cents of sauce than basic human decency. Never coming back! read more

Stopped for a late lunch on a Monday. There were a few diners and some waiting for takeout. You order at the counter and the server was friendly and knowledgeable. The 2 of us ordered rosé Tteokbokki and 8 chicken wings (small) unfortunately they didn't allow 2 sauces cuz we wanted to try more than 1 sauce (oh well) we chose the Gangjeong wings. It had 2 to indicate heat level but honestly it was just mild to us. The Tteokbokki came out first and we devoured it. The rice cake was soft and chewy. We found cabbage and fish cake hidden in the sauce. The wings did take some time to arrive. It came with a side of pickled radish. Outside was crispy and inside was juicy and tender. They provide disposable gloves so you don't have to be shy and just dig in. We will have to come back with a bigger group so we can try the other flavors The parking lot is small and narrow so be careful read more

Today bbq chicken in Dublin opened! We are very excited and went there and got dinner! The cashier (Nanami) who greeted us was friendly and helpful too! We ordered soy garlic wings, cheeseling boneless chicken, rose pasta, and ramen. Soy garlic wings: 4.5/5 very delicious with juicy chicken and flavorful sauce over the crispy batter. Cheeseling boneless: 3.5/5 it's very good but slightly drier than the wings. Cheese is not my favorite flavor though and can use more cheesy powder on it. Rose pasta: 3/5 I thought it was good, and worth trying; but I also had better ones elsewhere. Ramen: 2.5/5 the soup is a bit weak in taste and ramen noodles texture got soft quickly. A few other things unrelated to food: the interior AC was a bit too strong, and the wait time was also longer than normal, as we waited 50 mins for all our food to be ready. I also noticed that the line of customers ended up in between the tables when it go long. It's their first day so it's natural that adjustments still need to be made, and I am very happy that they are now in Dublin. I am looking forward to going back again and be impressed. read more

That Spicy Original Chicken is the standard and I will go back for more. Good Service staff were pretty nice and accommodating.

The food was pretty okay but the service and the environment were not it. The lady who took our order was nothing less than extremely rude and unhelpful. The employees look like they don't want to be here and I get it because I don't like being at work either, but it's not my fault you're having a bad day. We asked a simple question and the lady at the cashier snapped back at us in a condescending manner. It made my friends and I feel dumb for not knowing the menu well and just overall asking simple questions. Other than that, the service was also slow and we waited at the cashier for five minutes until the lady, who had noticed us when we walked in because we said hello and were greeted back with an annoyed glance, finally walked over. The overall experience and attitudes given were very negative. I don't think I'll be returning to this location. read more

bb.q Chicken - Soy Garlic Wings - Chicken Shop Near Me - Dublin, California

Be sure to ask for water/cups at the register, they give you a jug for your table. They also have gloves, food trays, and condiments available next to the register. You place your order at the counter and then find a table, service is friendly and casual. Each chicken order comes with a side of radish. Their lunch special is a really great deal and is a large portion of food! Highly recommend the soy garlic and secret sauce flavor. Secret sauce isn't actually that spicy- it's the perfect amount of spice. The boneless chicken is super tender and juicy, much bigger pieces and better than bonchon imo. Really liked the cheesling fries- the sweet flavor is a good balance with spicy food. The plain fries are also so good! You can get free fries through their rewards program. read more
