    The menu
    Tanya P.

    It's your standard fast food. Fried and very salty. Standard seating, highly lit & very loud. Music plays in the background. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. They were on top of keeping everything clean. I didn't like the quality of the food. The quality of the chicken was kind of rubbery. The sauces were all on the spicy side. The fries and the waffle sweet potato fries were fried hard and thin as well as the fried onions on the chicken sandwich. When they are that thin it's hard for them to retain heat, therefore they were cold. They were so salty. The Mac and cheese wasn't anything special, but they do have a cheese it crumble topping that is unique. We have not tried the ice cream and shake treats but they looked really good. Unfortunately, I will not be dining there again to find out. It was something to try.

    Buffalo Hot Sauce Chicken Tenders & Fries!
    Asha W.

    YES YES & YES!!! 2nd time here & once again the service was great, chicken tenders were hot and fresh and a basketball game from the 90's showing is always a vibe. I'm pissed Cincinnati doesn't have a location! Such a far drive!

    Sad thin chicken patty. Small layer of mac and cheese and almost none existent onions.

    Been wanting to try this place. None in my home town. What a big disappointment. I read his story on wall and if this is the food his mother served, then I feel sorry for him. He has had to try chick filet or Popeyes. How does he think this chicken stacks up. My sandwich had 1/4" thick chicken patty. And not much Dry Mac and cheese or fried onions. The crinkle fries were annoying because they were all little pieces. The sauce bar didn't have chicken sauce. Pumped it many times. The young man at counter was pleasant. I can't believe shaq puts his name on this product. Very sad.

    My stepdaughter's car got towed while she was on campus, so we had to make a trip and fork over $200 bucks to get it out. So not the best start to my weekend, but I figured since we were out of town, we might as well get some good grub. I was pleased to see that Big Chicken was nearby. I missed trying them in Vegas, so this was a perfect option for lunch. The customer service was top-notch. The cashier was very informative and friendly. We told her it was our first time, so she broke down the menu for us. I was immediately sidetracked by the huge cookies they had at the front desk. However, I skipped them this time because I had just had Crumbl. I ordered the Big Aristotle sandwich meal. I was shocked when I saw that they featured the Stubborn Soda brand, so I was excited to grab a cup full of Agave Vanilla Cream Soda. The food came out too soon, I was knee-deep in a game of NBA Jam. As I scored my final points with Isiah Thomas, I decided to forfeit my game for my food. The sandwich was huge, hot, and crispy. The fries reminded me of Red Robin fries, but they were thinly sliced. The sauce bar was very cool because I am definitely a dipper. The Shaq Sauce and the Carolina mustard were my favorites. My wife truly enjoyed her meal, so we will be making a trip back and I will make sure to purchase one of those colossal cookies. Big Aristotle Sandwich add bacon 1-5=4.5. Fries 1-5=4.5. Sauces 1-5=5! Customer Service 1-5=5!

    Peanut Butter Chip

    Overall a great restaurant. You order at the counter and they give you a pager until your food is ready. Next to the drink station they have a self serve sauce station which is convenient. I would say that it is a little on the expensice side, but the portions are huge. Me and my boyfriend split a meal and still could not finish it. I feel it would be better if portions were smaller and prices were cheaper. We got the Crispy chicken grilled cheese sandwhich and it was amazing! The chicken is lightly breaded therefore you get more chicken than breading. The peanut butter shake was AMAZING and I highly recommend. If you're in the area it is a must try!

    My bf spotted this place and knew it was Shaq's chain so we decided to stop and check it out. He got the tenders and I got the 2 sliders set. The chicken is crisp and juicy. The flavor is good, could use more seasoning personally, but with the sauce it's perfect. I'm not a fan of the fries, they're cut long and thin kind of like chips. I like my fries crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, these are a bit too thin to have that soft inside. But my bf liked them, they are unique. I got the peach sweet tea which was really good, not overly sweet. I tried the strawberry lemonade as well, wasn't as impressed, not sour enough for me. Overall I would definitely eat here again, wish there were more locations.

    Milkshakes
    Aja H.

    Went on opening day. The chicken was tasty and tasted as expected for a chicken sandwich. The only downside was, everything was very salty. However, we powered through the salt. The milkshakes were the best! Very creamy and we appreciated the real ice cream. We were visiting Dayton. If I lived there, I wouldn't drive out of my way to get it. Nice concept but an ordinary overpriced chicken sandwich.

    This was definitely 5star chicken!! The flavor on everything was amazing!! The grilled cheese chicken sandwich was next level!! I mean seriously great, it was toasted perfectly, with the cheese melted just the right amount of melt! Just great!! The chicken tenders had the perfect crisp along with flavor. My kiddos shared a shake & that was even amazing! I should have got two!!! I can't wait to run across another one!

    The food was yum and well seasoned. The staff was helpful and efficient. The place is clean and well put together. They were out of sweet tea which is probably good for my health. The portions are large. A good environment to have a quick lunch. Ps the root beer is really good.

    the front of the building

    Editing this two years later to say I tried it again. Tender size seemed more normal than I recalled. They change how they do the fries and now they were crinkle cut and mediocre. Sauces were good. I did not ask about cost this time as my husband picked it up for me. He just remarked that it is expensive. Not bad food, but not anticipating going back soon partially because I do not eat chicken tenders very often.

    Chicago and BC Fries
    Tamika J.

    Big chicken was such a disappointment. The staff was friendly, but the food was tasteless. The ordered the Chicago. It had so many elements to the sandwich, but I really didn't taste anything. I also made the sandwich a combo meal. The fries were ok, but very thin. I never had thin steak fries. I feel this restaurant is overpriced for what is being offered.

    The chicken was average at best. The tenders were small and kind of dry. The sides were pretty good. The macaroni and cheese was great.
