Yeah, I think the description for the three stars is accurate. It's not bad, not great, just "ok". Service and staff are fine, as you would expect. Tables were a bit worn down and tired, but seemed clean as they could be. The shakes were good, definitely offer different types that other places and have texture and flavor. The regular chicken sandwich is fine, but there is certainly better hot chicken sandwiches out there. This trip I ordered the smoke show and fries. The fries were the best part, which says something for a chicken sandwich joint. I was super excited about the Texas-toast style bund but overall flavor was kind of meh. read more

I think we can all agree that Shaq is one of the coolest athletes of all time. But even cooler, he's one of the best businessmen of all time and this just adds to the portfolio. But is it actually good or just another celebrity cash grab? I got the Big Cali sandwich and it was solid. It had some classic flavors with a bit of a twist. I think the crunch on the chicken was great and it was juicy in each bite. I also tried the onion rings and I think these were the real highlight. The batter on the rings was fantastic. I do like the idea of the smaller sandwiches in the Texas toast too. The Smoke Show was pretty solid, perfect if you need a little snack. So do I think this is worth a try? I do. But don't go in thinking it will be the best chicken of your life. read more

I would have given 3.5 stars if I could but rounded up to 4 because I grew up watching Shaq and wearing his signature Reebok sneakers. I got to try Nashville hot chicken tenders, the Original chicken sandwich, chicken sandwich with Nashville hot, cheese curds, Mac & cheese, and dirty fries. All were good! I wish Nashville hot was actually spicy, but that's okay. I really liked their Ancho sauce (had a unique smokey taste) and cheese curds were on point. Dave's Hot Chicken has better tenders and sandwiches, but this place is good too! This was an Uber Eats order. I will try in person next time and update this review. read more

My kids love this Chicken place. I mean, what's there not to! We try to mix it up here when we order to try out different items on the menu. Everything we have had so far is good. I like their sandwiches and the cheese curds since we're a cheese lovers. My son's fav is the Mac and cheese amongst others. Service is fast and cashiers are nice. Ambience is welcoming, it's clean and that's important! Must have for sure! read more

I got the Shaq Attack sandwich and fries and was pretty disappointed by how dry the chicken was. It was fun to try Shaq's chicken chain, but I probably wouldn't go back read more

First time here and was super excited for the food. I ordered the Cali sandwich meal, the chicken "nuggets" meal and a snack sandwich. I loved the fries!! Hot, crispy and good. I liked the crisp on the chicken. I liked the bread on the snack sandwich. I felt there is a little aftertaste on the chicken that is supposed to be Nashville hot. I feel it lacks seasoning, maybe just a sprinkle of salt when it comes out of the fryer. Overall it was good. I'm also getting used to the spots that only have a display to order and not being able to have someone take my order. I feel the display takes me considerably longer to find what and how I need to customize vs me just telling a person. I failed to take photos but I would come back and specifically order the snack sandwich. read more

The Shaq Attack is my favorite although they got rid of the spicy coleslaw which is disappointing. If you can't stand the heat, get your booty out the kitchen! The Ultimate which was previously the Sir Charles was also really good. The mac and cheese was creamy and delicious. They can't miss item on this menu is the peanut butter shake which is Rich creamy thick and can be upgraded with your combo meal. This is a higher end chicken sandwich shop. However, the cost is not much different than Chick-fil-A and I feel like the sandwiches are bigger and taste better here! read more

Don't got on a busy day! If there's an event happening at the Landing, wouldn't it make sense to have more workers? Can here after an event and waited at least 15+ minutes and they got my order wrong I ordered 2 items. I didn't get my kids drink or bowl of fruit and the Mac and cheese was filled up half way - maybe a 1/4 cup worth. So basically I paid $6.99 for Mac and cheese that I could have easily made at home. I'll give them one star for the chicken sandwich. At least that order was right. It came with fries. Over $15 for an ultimate combo. Overpriced for a burger and fries and drink. I like their drink selection of sodas and lemonade. There's a kiosk if you wanted to order that way. This was my first time there and not sure if I'd be back. Their desserts look good and I noticed one person doing those and another manning the order counter and one packing the food. There should have been 2 people packing up food. The eating area was rather small too. read more

Wanted to try out this place since we had some of their strips at a recent concert, and we were in the area. The food wasn't bad, but I don't think we would go out of our way to get it again. We ordered at the front counter and got our food within 5 minutes. We had a Philly sandwich which had great flavor, but had minimal meat and veggies and a chewy bun. The salad tasted good with the bacon bits and ranch dressing, but the hard fried onion ring on it had to be eaten by hand. There was also very little chicken on it. The Cali chicken burger was tasty. The fries were crunchy and good. It was weird that the "meal" only came with a sandwich and fries and no drink. We ordered the burger with the Mac and cheese to go, and you could only see the patty and very little of any toppings. We sat at the counter by the windows to eat, but had to hurry since the only parking spot open was a 15 minute spot. The parking lot was very crowded, busy, and tight! The guy said goodbye to us when we left. All in all, it wasn't a bad place, but was overpriced for sure. read more

Have ordered from here through GrubHub several times over the last year and the food was always consistent, but this week we ate in the restaurant. We were greeted by staff upon entering which was nice. We had ordered via their website; we had no trouble picking up our order from their friendly staff. Interior was reasonable, nothing particularly special other than one of their TVs happened to have cat videos playing on it (from TikTok or Youtube shorts, presumably). We had the classic chicken sandwich (good) and the Shaq Attack (very good) with fries (just fine--reasonably crisp & fresh). Large pieces of chicken in both sandwiches--really feel like the value is there in each sandwich. It's not the best chicken sandwich you can get in the greater Seattle area, but it's fast and consistently good. We'll keep coming back here. read more

Shout out to Jonathan at Big Chicken! Great customer service, friendly, knowledgeable and selfless. Saw him answering questions with a smile, take orders, help the woman on the kitchen side and any free moment tidying up. A family left their trash all over the a table and on the floor instead of placing on the trash...as soon as they were out the door, he came right out to clean up. Food is good too but Jonathan is the star here. read more

Today is Labor day, the line was some what decent. They take the order pretty fast, but it took 20min before we got our food. They were quiet bust. We ordered Shaq Attack, Uncle Jerome with upgrade Dirty Fries instead of regular fries for a meal, and A Popcorn Chicken kids meal with sweet potato waffle fries. The crispness of the chicken from the sandwich to popcorn chicken are pretty nice, the flavour is there, not too overpowering. The waffle fries ok, the dirty fries comes with banana pepper, bacon bits, bbq sauce and melted cheese. You can add sauces, they have those near the drink fountains, they have: Shaq sauce, spicy bbq, sweet bbq and I can't read the other one. They have container and cap if you plan to bring them to go. As for beverage selections: they have soda fountains, sweet black yea, unsweetened tea and strawberry lemonade. Bottomless! Plenty of parking. Floor was a bit messy with food here and there. Restroom was yeah...has a fly flying around. Otherwise, it's great. Ps: plenty for parking in the renton landing area. They located across from Nibbana Thai Restaurant and next to Mattress firm. read more

3.5/5 stars. Think a fast food chain specializing in fried chicken, then you won't be disappointed by the casual dining experience. I do wish there was some outdoor seating available since we had our dog, and had to eat on a bench somewhere. I came in Memorial Day around lunch time, and it's busy inside. Food was ready about 10 minutes after ordering, and I got my milkshake to sip on while I waited. We got a combo meal (a sandwich, a side + a drink) - M.D.E. (fried chicken with Shaq sauce & pickles, not spicy), sweet potato waffle fries. We also tried Uncle Jerome (like Nashville hot chicken). The fried chicken wasn't alright, not particularly juicy or tasty. I prefer the spicy one a bit more. I did enjoy the milkshake (Big Conductor) and the pineapple cream soda. Strawberry lemonade was another choice. Don't forget to grab some extra sauce located near the soda machine. read more

Big Chicken is probably the best option in the immediate Landing area if you need something good and quick right before going to the movies as everything else pretty requires to be seated by a wait staff and only half of restaurants here is decent. Can't go wrong with fried chicken sandwiches, the perfect order for 2 is each get a sandwich and share a side of fries. The sauces are available next to the drink station with of course the house sauce being mandantory. I got the Shad Attack because it seems most appetizing with the jalapeno slaw, I know we're eating a fried chicken sandwich, but I still want some veggies in it. I think we were in and out within 20 minutes, perfect timing to walk over to the movies. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:) read more

Shaq Attack! Shaquille O'Neal's new chicken spot is in town, and it was a solid place for all things chicken and more. My friend and I had lunch here at The Landing in Renton, and our meals were good. Big Chicken is a casual eatery where you order at the counter, pick your own seat and wait until your order is called out. On a Monday around lunch time, the place quickly filled, with families and those who seemed to work in the area and were on their lunch break. It's a popular spot. The menu specialized in fried chicken sandwiches, but they have tenders, popcorn chicken, salads, sides and desserts. There's even a dessert right at the register that's a cookie the size of a flattened basketball. I'd expect nothing less from the basketball star. I ordered the cobb salad with grilled chicken, which didn't take long to get. The salad was good, with avocado, bleu cheese and a bunch of shredded greens. I would've liked more grilled chicken, especially since it was thinly cut, but it was still a tasty salad. My friend liked her chicken tenders and fries combo, which came out piping hot and fresh. I'd come back to check out more of the menu, including trying one of the famous fried chicken sammies. read more

I usually don't hold high hopes for celebrity restaurants but Big Chicken is legit! Uncle Jerome - Nashville hot chicken with lettuce, pickle, mayo. Pretty tasty overall...big portion, juicy chicken. A little greasy and could stand to be a little more spicy but I liked it overall. Wanted ranch on side and employee told me sauces were self serve on the side...which is awesome! But they only had ketchup and bbq sauces at the self serve. Their sauces like the Shaq Sauce are tasty though! Sweet Potato fries were plentiful and crispy. Local beers on tap. Overall decent meal. A little pricey, as my bill was around $27 for sandwich, fries, drink, and IPA? Would recommend trying though either at this location or at Climate Pledge! read more

We came here for a quick bite as we happened to find ourselves in the area. Since it was prime dinner time, there was a decently long line, but it moved pretty quickly. The popcorn chicken was juicy and pretty tasty. The fries were pretty good too! I do think the size labels "Big" and "bigger" are definitely misleading.. This is not big at all!! I know it's part of the Shaq theme but it was still disappointing :( read more

The milkshake station looks innocuous but must radiate some level of horror that only the Big Chicken employees are aware of. One lone employee was lost to the task though she fought valiantly to escape its pull. But try as she might, and she did try!, she couldn't find another soul to take her place. The tickets piled higher and higher around her and she evaded by refilling the peanut butter, shaking the milk container over and over and over, re-examining the cups, and then making the shakes completely out of order at a very precise, arduous pace. The line was long and initially fast moving. The cashier quickly input everyone's order as he avoided being sucked into the milkshake station's grasp. At one point it appeared as though the milkshake station would pass to him. The woman hastily peeled off her plastic gloves and dashed to the register. No sooner was she prepped to take orders did the other employee say something quietly to her and she went back where she had to prep again to make milkshakes. Ten minutes after ordering we received our food order. Twelve minutes after receiving the food order the shake emerged - number 82 coming after 96 and 92. Sequential milkshake creations did not exist this day and to be honest 22 minutes for a milkshake and it didn't taste like I envisioned a 22 minute milkshake would taste. Tasted pretty much like a standard fast food shake. We took our order to go. The chicken sandwich was tasty, but also odd as the thickness of the filet varied from quite thin to super thick - the outside edges being the thick part and the inside piece being thin which is probably why it caught my attention since it usually is the opposite. It was juicy and tender. The popcorn chicken was a bit dry and very salty, but my friend enjoyed them. I did not like the fries. They were wide like a steak fry but cut super thin so more like what I envisioned a homemade chip would end up like. I tend to like a more potato French fry than just a crunchy starch stick but that may just be me. I am glad I went, I am glad so see the space being used again. But I doubt I will go again. read more

Decided to visit this place on a whim. Place was clean -!: Simple menu easy to read with just enough choices. We weren't hungry, wanted to try a snack. Cashier recommend the popcorn chicken versus tenders to share. I was concerned that there would be more breading than chicken. I was pleasantly surprised how tender, tasty, and the serving size. We tried all the sauces! The ranch is at back of counter refrigerated, so you need to ask for it. My favorite sauces was the Shaq sauce and the Carolina mustard bbq sauce. Would come back again to try something else. They do serve salads, for a healthier choice and wine/beer to pair with your bok bok chicken! read more

I've had Big Chicken one other time beforehand, not at this location, but still familiar with the food and menu. This location is located in the Renton Landing area, so parking should not be an issue. A couple of us from work decided to eat out for lunch and let me decide what we should eat today. I choose Big Chicken because who doesn't love Chicken! Plus, I didn't want it to be something that would take too long to eat. One of us weren't familiar with the restaurant or menu, but the staff members working that day were very helpful with providing suggestions on what to order. We each ordered a different Chicken Sandwich Combo Meal and were able to eat it inside the restaurant! read more

Every time i'm at Renton Landon I stop by Big Chicken. I'm so glad Shaq brought this place to Washington State. Just being able to buy Sweet Tea somewhere in WA is special! I love the their Seasonal Lemonades. Love the season on the chicken WHATEVER it's breaded in is BOMB! Love the jalapeño spicy slaw. The popcorn chicken is my go to but the strips are great as well!

So messy, this sandwich is. It's was okay. My fries were cold and I could hardly eat the sandwich it was so messy, I needed a lot of napkins. Was the chicken sandwich nasty? No, it was definitely okay. I had better Nashville hot chicken sandwiches - like from Sisters and Brothers in Seattle - their Nashville hot chicken sandwich is soooo good. Try it, if you haven't. Is it worth the price? I don't know. I'm kind of cheap with fast food. I hate spending money on it. So probably not. I'm a big fan of Shaq and I admire him a ton, but this location was a great disappointment. read more

Service is prompt, food comes out relatively quickly and it's good. Honestly, there isn't much else to say. There's a sauce bar where you can pick the ones you want to try, shaq sauce is good and so is the chipotle bbq. Waffle fries were super good, jalapeño slaw wasn't exactly my jam but it wasn't bad, got the shaq sliders and they were the perfect size. Chicken was huge, tender and super flavorful. Overall, it was a smidge salty and smothered in ketchup (next time, I'll ask for no ketchup)! read more

Meh I honestly expected a lot more from this restaurant. The chicken sandwich game is fierce so you have to come correct if you're going to have them on your menu. I ordered the standard chicken sandwich and it was OK. Nothing more nothing less. The fries were weird as they seemed hollow inside. There's a bunch of dipping sauces, which is nice. I visited once and won't return because it was honestly a forgettable place and needs to come with better food. read more

We were in the area and sheer curiosity got us in the door :) Once inside it has pretty standard fast food joint ambiance (with some expected Shaq touches). The staff were friendly enough, though it did seem there was an imbalance in work load, with one woman at the front seeming to do most of the heavy lifting (and some male staff seeming to have nothing better to do than distract her with images on his phone - I was annoyed on her behalf). All of that acknowledged, the grilled chicken sandwich, fries, and peanut butter milkshake we ordered were all tasty, the milkshake definitely being the star of the show. Overall, we thought this was a good addition to the area, and we'd come back (especially for that milkshake):) Pro-Tip: Eat the fries while they're hot. Pro-Tip 2: Treat yourself to a milkshake! They really are quite fabulous. read more
