    We came here for a quick lunch on a Sunday. Was not busy at all, but the wait was quite long considering. We sat on the patio which was nice as it is dog friendly and were able to bring our dog. The fries are really good. Would come back just for those. I had the Ultimate Chicken Sandwich. The chicken was juicy but the sandwich overall was bland. The boneless wings could have used more sauce but we're good overall. This is a great casual spot to go for lunch if you don't mind waiting a little bit.

    Well i returned here. The only thing I didn't like was the free sauce bar was gone and it was 50 cents per sauce now. Still, ths new shaq snacks was very good with the Smoke Show having a tender and Cole slaw and sauce and the curds were very good too.

    I am pleasantly surprised by Big Chicken! Was craving lunch and this place was under a mile from my rental. YUM! I got the Crispy Chicken Sandwich with a side of fries. I would say the chicken sandwich was a 7/10, it was super crispy but needed a bit more sauce. The fries were excellently crisp, like an upscale Culver's fry. While I still have had better Chicken Sandwiches, I am happy with the meal I had here.

    Really nice bar seating area

    So we came to Downtown Gilbert for date night. We decided to check out Big Chicken. This place did nit disappoint. We loved the atmosphere, this was a fun place to have dinner and a drink! I had the Uncle Combo and Janna had the Ultimate Combo. They were so good, the chicken was soooo juicy. I would absolutely do it again. My chicken was super spicy, oh my goodness, it was so good. The staff was awesome and they all seemed to enjoy working there which is always a good sign. We will absolutely be back!

    After recently moving to Gilbert, AZ, my husband and I have found ourselves choosing Big Chicken as one of our go to restaurants when we are wanting something quick and tasty! I had tried the limited-time Sir Charles chicken sandwich and was very happy with my order! Next time I am trying the Original and also getting a double chocolate shake We recently met the new owner and he was so welcoming and nice! Seeing his excitement about what is to come with their establishment made us forever customers of Shaq's brand! (Fyi.. New sandwiches on the way!!) I noticed they have a bar and could only imagine how fun it would be to start a fun night on the town here with dinner & drinks! I believe you can even order a boozy shake too!

    Fries were really good. Wings could definitely use a bit more sauce, they were a little dry. Grilled cheese chicken sandwich is amazing. They definitely don't go light on the cheese, love it! Ultimate chicken sandwich was also good and they have a great patio to enjoy it all that is dog friendly. We will definitely be back.

    First impressions is that it's very clean.. and up to date, the guy that took our order was patient and directed us well it's very open and has a nice patio. The food was actually very good, gramps approve as well! The chicken wasn't dry the sauce was like a peppery canes sauce the music was good in there overall enjoyed

    New favorite spot in Gilbert! I stopped by Big Chicken on a whim and WOW--what a find! I had the Nashville Chicken Sandwich and it absolutely blew me away. Perfectly crispy, juicy chicken with just the right amount of heat, all tucked into a soft, flavorful bun. You can tell they care about quality and flavor here. The staff was super friendly, the service was quick, and the whole vibe of the place was fun and welcoming. Honestly might be the best chicken sandwich I've had in Arizona...

    Me and shaq (cut out)

    Wonderful! Everyone was real kind and the food was fast! Did not see Shaq but other than that 10/10

    This was one of our let's check out a new chicken sandwich place episodes! Decided to give Shaq's restaurant a try. Not very busy inside. We did get the chicken sandwich specials which I thought were a nice value! The chicken sandwiches were actually very good and I would recommend stopping here to try them out. Well prepared, tender, moist and delicious! The fries were outstanding too. The service was outstanding and the restaurant was clean. I would definitely go back here again.

    I was at a community event that was close to this location, which was great because I have been wanting to try the spot just because of Shaq and he thinks he knows chicken so well. Went in the place was pretty empty. It was an odd day and an odd time it was a Wednesday evening. Nevertheless, I ordered buffalo chicken and barbecue chicken bites. I ordered some chicken tender strips, french fries and mac & cheese just to get a variety of things and check out the sauces. The buffalo boneless chicken bites were the best with a close second on the chicken strips now I didn't taste all of the sauces, but my daughter says that the BC sauce was extremely good. The mac & cheese was one of their signature dishes. It was good, but it was much too cheesy for me personally. Overall, I think that the chicken was very good and I would return if I wanted a nice buffalo boneless and I'm in that area. Like I said it wasn't anyone in the place, but me and my daughter, but the set up was very nice. They had a bar TVs all over to watch the games and the seating was pretty comfortable. The service was nice the young lady at the front helped us pick out some items because it was our first time.

You can tell he actually cares about the dining experience and keeps up with his tables really well. Service alone was a 10 out of 10. Before coming in, we saw reviews complaining about a 20 minute wait for the food, but honestly that did not bother us because they let us know right away that the chicken is made fresh and would take around 15 minutes. If you know good fried chicken, you already know fresh chicken is worth the wait. I would rather wait a little longer for crispy, hot chicken than get something sitting under a heat lamp. And let me tell you, the chicken came out exactly how fried chicken should be. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, piping hot, and perfectly seasoned. The crunch had that fresh fry texture where you can actually hear it when you bite into it. For sides, I got the okra and mac and cheese. It was my first time trying fried okra and now I completely understand the hype. The seasoning on it was insanely good, especially paired with the Louisiana hot sauce. Definitely ask for the yellow peppers too because they add this juicy little pop of heat and crunch that takes the chicken to another level. Overall: 10 out of 10 service 10 out of 10 food 10 out of 10 atmosphere If you actually love fried chicken and appreciate fresh food made right, this spot is absolutely worth checking out.

I try to avoid pork, but nonetheless tried today. The sweetness is not my thing, though I've had Filipino spaghetti before (no hot dogs in the one a restaurant made). Perhaps if you like pork and sweet sauce made with banana ketchup, this is your acquired taste? As for the chicken, I took a small bite as I have just reintroduced some meat in to my diet. I liked the skin and it had a good flavor. The coleslaw pairs nicely with it, but about average in flavor for a coleslaw. Still on the search for one to rival the one Chic-fil-a had and discontinued. Overall though, the dining area was spacious and the service was very friendly. The food was prepared quickly and the staff kept the tables tidy as patrons left. Very impressed with the cleanliness.

There are some walls which I thought had exposed brick, but later noticed were wall boards. Either way, I love the look. We were seated right away and the nicest server came over. He really seems to love the restaurant and love the food, which is always a plus in my book. The boys each got a beer, and I got the Italian margarita. It was a sweet drink that kind of tasted like an Amaretto Sour, which makes sense since there's Amaretto in it. I liked it. They brought gigantic rolls with butter to the table. I really liked it because most places serve sourdough bread, and I don't really like sourdough bread. These large white rolls were yummy. I wasn't very hungry so I just ordered two meatballs, but I asked if I could have the meat sauce instead of the marinara that it usually comes with. Our server said there would be no problem with that, and there wasn't. Hubby got the spaghetti and meatballs, and son got eggplant parmesan. All of it was delicious and I give kudos for a really yummy meat sauce. For me, the meat sauce can make or break an Italian restaurant. They seem to do a pretty brisk take out business, and there were quite a few people by the time we left. I would love to come back and try the pizza, because pizzas that we saw coming out looked fantastic.

Sauces: The Zax Sauce did NOT disappoint. I've heard great things from my friends about this sauce and pretty much came here to see what all the craze was about! To be honest, I loved it! : The cookies were great! I loved how the chocolate chips made its way through each bite of the cookie. For $2.99, you can get three cookies. : The bread was alright, probably my least favorite part of my meal. It wasn't as good as Raising Canes. It was just a grilled piece of toast. : It's around $10-$15 per person, which isn't bad, but still a little much. For three fingers, a toast, and a drink, it was $10. Service: The service was good.

I do want to note that the young woman who assisted us was very sweet and helpful, and she was the only positive part of this visit. My husband had already eaten one piece before realizing the issue, but as you can see, the remaining pieces are unbelievably small and should not be labeled as "strips."
