This sandwiches were amazing !!! And the staff were super nice and location was clean. Drive thru is super slow and a bit of inconsistency with the hours of operation. The shake machine was broken or something like that so that was a huge bummer. We went the same week twice because this was delicious! read more

We came because this place is owned by Shaq but the food turned out to be pretty good. The sandwiches were nicely prepared. Even the fries had some good seasoning in it. Overall the food was tasty. When I was there the restaurant was packed. The small space is not equipped to handle a lot of people. The line was extended all the way into the dining area next to other people. read more

I tried this place shortly after it opened because...well, Shaq! DUH! Of course, I didn't expect him to be there, but I did expect the food to live up to his name. Unfortunately, it didn't quite slam dunk, though the prices definitely did. I ordered the Ultimate, which was actually good and filling, but for what you get, it feels overpriced. There are plenty of local chicken spots that serve generous portions at a better value. Here, it felt a bit like paying for the name more than the meal. The staff was fine, though not particularly friendly or welcoming, and the restaurant itself was clean, which I appreciated. Overall, not a bad experience, just not one I'd rush back for. read more

The chicken is delicious and the portions are HUGE! The service at this location was also amazing - the staff was so willing to help us navigate the menu as first timers. They offered suggestions for everyone in our party of 6. I would also recommend the milk shakes...they are delicious and a nice sweet treat to end your meal. The location is big and well kept! We will definitely return. read more

While on my food tour of the DFW metropolitan area, I decided to check out Shaq's Big Chicken. The restaurant has a fun vibe and the branding definitely grabs your attention, it's not every day you get to eat at a place with Shaq's name on it. Unfortunately, the experience fell flat when it came to value. One sandwich meal, called the Philly Fadeaway, rang up at $13.49. For what you get, that price is shocking. The sandwich itself was bland with very little flavor, and the portion size does not justify the cost by any means. This is a very poor value, especially compared to other fast-casual options in the DFW area. The restaurant was empty during my visit, I was the only customer. The food did come out quickly, but the service left me scratching my head. There are signs that clearly say "Order Here" and "Pick Up Here", so I stood at the counter waiting. Instead, the cashier brought my food over and asked, "Where are you sitting? I have to bring your food to your table!" Thanks for the customer service, but it left me wondering if this confusion is normal here. The one highlight of the meal was the crinkle cut fries, perfectly cooked with great crispness and flavor. Unfortunately, even those couldn't balance out the overall disappointment. Overall, Shaq's Big Chicken may be worth trying once for the novelty and the fries, but when it comes to flavor, and value it just doesn't deliver. read more

First of all, the staff were super helpful and kind. They really seemed to enjoy working here and their have fun attitude was contagious! My server filled up my drink even though it's self serve! That's above and beyond! The place was laid back and not too loud, especially for being a Saturday night with sports games on! I really enjoyed the rustic design of the place as seen in the photos. I even noticed an NBA Jam arcade game by the entrance which is really a neat touch as the owner of this place is Shaq. Getting a meal also came with a pleasant drink selection seen in the photos. I ordered the number 3 meal titled "Unlce Jerome's Nashville Hot" with Fries and a drink. I especially liked their strawberry watermelon drink. The chicken wasn't too spicy and had a pleasant mix of flavor. The fries and ranch were great, as I was pleasantly surprised by the ranch. I will definitely be back! read more

We really wanted to like this, but it's quite overhyped. The restaurant itself is quite small and narrow, you have to stand between tables and the bar to wait in line since the counter is in the very back. The staff is quite friendly, some more than others, but I think they need to have a better system for milkshakes. We ordered 4 combo meals and the person taking the order recorded 3 so when we were looking at the receipt we had to put in another order before leaving the counter. With our meals we had gotten fountain drinks and also one milkshake. The drink machine was out of ice, and the separate drinks (watermelon) were not very good so we had to wait for them to bring out a container of ice and a scoop just so we could get fountain drinks. At this point we had to find a place to wait so we sat at the bar. Now because this is a small establishment and they make a lot of fried chicken... the whole establishment is very very smoky. So if you're questioning if your glasses are just really dirty or if it's smoky... it's just smoky. The food arrived after a while and the person was nice enough to get us all the sauces to try. That sad part is that they don't really reconcile the ticket to we said our thanks and left... without the milkshake. The food itself for the price... was underwhelming. We expected large loaded chicken sandwiches and were really disappointed. The flavor was also quite lacking. I always recommend everyone try for themselves, but for me, I probably wouldn't choose to go back. read more

My husband had heard this place was good and wanted to try it out! Being out in Ft Worth it was a bit of a hike from Irving for us but we decided to give it a try one night for dinner. We were pleasantly surprised - the restaurant was not super busy on a friday night at 7:30pm, but it had steady clientele and everything was fresh made to order. They let us try all their sauces. My favorite was the buffalo but I didn't need it unless i got the little dunks again- which is basically popcorn chicken. We both got the chicken sandwich with the mac and cheese on it and we shared a side of fries and a PB milkshake. The sandwiches and the milkshake were SO good! I'm actually glad this isn't closer or i'd want it more often haha. And it was about $35ish if I remember correctly for all the food- next time we would pass on the dunks though, we already had more than enough food. read more

Never been here before, I'm a big Shaq fan so wanted to try this place out. Wasn't disappointed. Got there about 11:40 am this morning, there were maybe 8 of us there. They have a drive-up but wanted to go inside. Nice snazzy bar area which really surprised me. $5 frozen margaritas always !! Got the #5 Shaq Attack fried chicken sandwich and a strawberry marg. Very impressed with everything !! read more

Big Chicken is the kind of spot where comfort food meets casual cool--and where you can definitely dig in (literally) to some finger-licking goodness. From the moment we walked in, the friendly and helpful staff made us feel like we were part of the family, shout out to Jaitavia even if Uncle Jerome himself didn't make an appearance. Speaking of Uncle Jerome, his hot chicken sandwich was the standout: crispy, juicy, and packing just enough heat to remind you who's boss. And those tenders? They're not your average chicken strips; they're full of flavor, perfectly seasoned, and begging to be dipped into whatever sauce you fancy. The atmosphere was lively yet chill--a perfect backdrop for indulging in fried chicken done right. Big Chicken isn't just a place to eat; it's a place to savor. Whether you're there for a quick bite or planning to settle in for the vibe, it's worth the visit. Just save some room for seconds--you'll need it. read more

Heard about this new chicken place called Big Chicken owned by Shaq opened and then drove by a few time when i was in the area not being able to stop, but this time i had the time and I wanted me some fried chicken. Well, i got a big surprise. They only have chicken sandwich, tenders and wings. The funny part is that they have a full bar and a terrible tequila selection. lol I know why it's called Big cause of the price, OMG, the price is a lot to much for me. I got the tenders and fries to go. The fries were good and salty and a decent amount. The tenders were breaded perfect, tender and juicy and normal size for most tenders. I like the taste also, it was floury and dry or over spiced. The young lady i dealt with was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, i most likely won't be back, cause i just can't deal with the price. read more

I tried them out on a Friday afternoon, place was empty. I was greeted when I came in they look to have a full bar also which was unique for a chicken place I guess they are trying to make it a hangout spot along with being a fast food chicken place. I had the basic chicken sandwich combo it was tasty sauce on the sandwich was light not thick, crinkle fries were tasty. I left full but I will say price is a little steep. read more

Big Chicken? I don't know about that. They have the smallest chicken sandwich. The name does not carries the actual food quality. It's just a regular fast food sandwich, overpriced. The employees were excellent the service was really good, cannot see the same about the food. Shame on Shaq for naming this restaurant a big chicken with small sandwiches. read more

The food was yummy, hubby still raves about the chicken sandwich when was not too thick or too thin and flavorful! We also tried the wings this time and I must say the lemon pepper flavor is better than anywhere I've been lately. The only downside was the Mac and cheese and the price point. The Mac needed salt and pepper for sure and the cheese just had too sweet of a flavor for me. The price will set you back a bit so be prepared for that as well! read more

Drove past this place looking for a spot to eat. We didn't realize this was a franchise by Shaq until we got there. My sons was pretty excited since he a huge Basketball & Shaq fan. Cool little place, music is loud & the employees were friendly. It has a bar area but it seems it would be too crowded because seats are all close but not bad for a Monday lunch. The food was good though my son said it could have used some more flavor but my salad was pretty delish. We will for sure stop by again to try out the different menu items. read more

Too expensive for the amount of food that you get. Total let down. The burgers are tiny. The shakes look nothing like they are advertised. Surely won't be going back.

First time visiting Big Chicken... the place has identity problem. It does not know if it is a restaurant or fast food place. Place has walk up counter and drive through like a fast food place but then it has full bar on the side. The service was friendly and nice. The chicken sandwich was not Big Chicken. It was nice and juicy and tasted good. The french fries were average. My first impression of the place is average. read more

Big chicken has won my big heart. The staff here are super friendly as a new customer Jonathan and Victoria they help me make great choices. The food was so fresh cooked to order and the Sunday push the whole deal over the top.

I am now a lifelong customer shack you done made me want more thank you to Jonathan and Victoria and Mark the manager. What a great place.yum read more

Big disappointment! Oh hey you found my review, that means you don't have to waste your money at yet another mediocre celebrity endorsed place. Small portions high prices is the word around here.

Just opened and have been ready to try Shaq's place. I ordered the Ultimate sandwich (chicken, onion strings, mac n cheese, Shaq sauce, brioche bun with fries. I cut the onion strings. Sandwich was good size and prepared as ordered. Flavor was good, nothing amazing, but comparable to the other top-end fast food chicken options...won't name drop, you know which ones are better than the others. Fries were excellent! Mac n cheese was ok, might be better as a side and not in the sandwich. Service was good, was asked if I needed a drink refill twice during my visit. Tables were clean too, so great job. As for the interior, it has a large bar inside...yes...liquor and beer bar! It's a bit too big in my opinion and makes walking up to the register a little hard to do...especially if the place is busy. They also had it ICE COLD inside. Just observations and it's new, so they'll figure it out. I'll be back to try another sandwich soon. read more

Went to Big Chicken for the first time on 4/25. The individuals at the front were nice, however, I that was the only good thing about this experience. I got a soda with my meal, and only after attempting to use the soda machine was told it was broken. I then waited nearly 30 minutes for my food. Once I got home, we started eating and half way through noticed it was chewy and pink in the center. When I called they stated they were aware of the issue and that the chicken went bad and won't be selling any more chicken. I was only offered to come back to get a new meal, and not a refund. I did contact corporate as this is a health hazard and nothing was done outside of a $5 gift card. Hoping this review can help someone avoid possibly getting sick, and the issues here get resolved. read more

I can't really say too many good things about this restaurant. I had the 5 tender combo with Mac n cheese, there isn't much that stands out compared to other restaurants like it. Batter on the tenders were salty and didn't really stick to the chicken, Mac n cheese was bland. Pricing doesn't match with what you get. The seating was a bit cramped with the big bar that took up most of the left side. Service was probably the best thing about the entire experience. I wouldn't recommend or even go back knowing that there are better options for your money within a few minutes. read more

Love this place, but just had a HORRIBLE experience! 08/27/2025 11:30am I drove all the way from Dallas all but to be ignored by the lady "employee" working the NON-WORKING drive thru. I drove thru twice, blew my horn, shouted hello then went to window. She looked at me, did not acknowledge me, continued talking to whomever, looked at me AGAIN and ignored me AGAIN went back to talking, then FINALLY attempted to head over to the window. At that point, I waved my hand and drove off! The least she could've done was acknowledge that a PAYING CUSTOMER was there. SHE did not. read more

What is the point of drive thru if I'm still waiting 25 minutes for CHICKEN STRIPS! Like all yall serve is CHICKEN! The order board is inoperable and they take your order at the window, give you your drink and make you wait 20 more minutes for your food in the car while all the ice melts! Do NOT COME HERE if you're on lunch break! read more

The food was so delicious. We loved how they seasoned the fries and the chicken. The Lemonade was really good, but they were out of nearly every soda. Service was good. It was pretty slow at 530 pm on a Tuesday. read more

The worst service I've ever seen. We walked in and sat at the bar. The bartender was at the end of the bar with her head burried in her phone. No hello, I'll be right with you, nothing. After about 5 minutes we tried to get her attention. Still nothing. As we decided to leave I got up and asked her if the bar was open or not. I guess I interupted her texting or whatever. She said it was. My wife spoke with the manager and the excuse given was that the girl behind the bar wasnt on the clock. WTF.........No apology, no nothing. Wont go back and not recomend. We were looking forward to coming here because of all the hype. Very dissapointing to say the least read more

This is my second time coming here and the food is the same it's not busy but it takes a bit to get your food in drive through and when you get your food the fries are the only thing that's fresh and they are very basic no seasoning And the sandwich was cold and hard like it was under a heat lamp I've hade fresher food at McDonalds I expect better quality especially for the cost !! read more

Stopped in a few weeks ago and was shocked on what appeared to be the managers kids, maybe 5 or 6 running through the dining room and back to the kitchen screaming and making a mess. Food was on the floor and no concern about taking my order. Finally got my order in that took 30 minutes to prepare while her kids were allowed to run free back to the kitchen. I was worried about my food that I ended up giving to a homeless person. Will not be going back! read more

Just finished eating here for the first time. The online menu looked fantastic so I made a trip over to try it out and I was not disappointed! The service was friendly, they have a full bar, the food came out exactly like it looked on the menu. $15 for a combo is a little steep but am I gonna pay it again? Absolutely. This was fire. 10/10 if yelp would let me but I give it 5 stars read more

Maybe a bad day for them. Tastes like Burger King to me, not the meal I had hoped for. Got a No. 1 meal. $16 with at 10% tip. For a fast food counter lunch. Sandwich was mediocre, seems like a frozen patty. Fries were well salted, but kind of a small portion. And soft drinks were "out" at the fountain. Getting two stars at least because the young lady behind the register was very friendly. If as much effort was put into the food as it has been by the smiling employees, you might have a winner. read more
