    Wimpy wings

    PLEASE NOTE THIS REVIEW IS ONLY FOR THE CHICKEN WINGS. I still highly recommend the Pit Beef with 5 Stars! Got the wings for my wife and they had very little flavor and majorly undercooked, I got my usual 2 large pit beef sandwich's and they were great! 2 weeks later I begged her to go again and told them to "please make them crispy because last time they were not cooked enough ", he said no problem. I got my usual 2 large pit beef sandwiches and as usual it was great! Got home and exact same thing with the chicken wings-no flavor and even more undercooked! I tried to find an email but couldn't so I'm hoping this reaches the owner. One last thing in regards to the wings, they advertise "Jumbo Wings" and as can be seen in my video they are average size at best. They should be jumbo wings especially since we're paying 6/$9!

    Pit Beef and St Louis Rib sandwich (April 2023)
    Carroll N.

    April 2023 My hubby loves the pit beef sandwich here. I went here years ago and thought it was all right. His buddy came up to visit so we went here for lunch on a Sunday. I decided to try something other than the pit beef and got the St. Louis Ribs sandwich. It came with three bone in so could have been messy, but I was able to use a knife and fork to pull it apart. Unfortunately, the ribs didn't impress me much. Sauce was average and the meat wasn't as tender as I typically like. My hubby's friend liked his Turkey sandwich. Hubby and I ordered a regular side of fries to share. That is probably my favorite item that I have eaten here. There are a few parking spaces in front of the restaurant and more spaces in the back. There are also two picnic tables in the back. Most patrons appear to get carryout. They offer a 10% discount for veterans and first responders, which is cool.

    Meh, I've definitely experienced better. + friendly service + mozzarella sticks + tiger sauce - pit beef was dry as hell - sides were kinda weak - order / pick up area is confusing - no seating, grab and go Overall, I much prefer Chaps, Bullhead, Expressway, etc.

    Ribs and pit beef
    Cathy H.

    The beef tips were delicious! I was sad they didn't have wings when we ordered since they said there was a wing shortage. We also had the brisket and the pulled pork. Everything was very delicious. They charged me twice by accident on my credit card but I called and it was quickly rectified.

    Mild Flavored Ribs

    We've been wanting to try this place and finally did. I am so happy we did. This is my new favorite BBQ spot. Service: Lets start off with the service being stellar. We were greeted on the spot and the customer service was excellent. They asked if we had questions, explained the menu, offered some sample pit beef - which was amazing. Explained their delivery service and gave us tips on ordering the Maryland Crab soup. It goes fast! Food - Order: Pit Beef Sandwich - Very yummy. The meat was cooked perfectly and they offer a variety of sauces. Yum! The sauce of choice was their house BBQ Sauce. Chicken Wings - We went with mild and an order of 6. The pieces were actual chicken pieces not the small wings. They were good and just what my taste buds wanted. Ribs - Another pick of mild and the half rack order. They were tender, juicy and flavorful. Overall the food is slamming. Go in to place an order to go or call ahead for a quick pick up. You can't go wrong. Don't forget to ring the bell on your way out sharing a statement of good service!

    Chicken and rib "BBQ" platter.
    Sarah J.

    I'm typing this as I am eating a rib and chicken platter from The Canopy. We drove by here one day and the reviews were solid and we had high expectations for the food. Well I'm here to tell you that the food here is NOT authentic BBQ. Not even a inch close to it. I am highly disappointed. Have you ever been catfished by food? My God, that's how I feel right now. I'm from the south and I've eaten BBQ from all over the Carolina's, Texas, Georgia, and Florida. So I'd like to say that I have a well diverse BBQ palate. The ribs look and taste like they were broiled on the oven. There's no pit aroma or flavor. There's no char or anything. I wish I was over exaggerating but seriously, this is not BBQ. Rotisserie? Maybe. The chicken was dry as God knows what. The only decent thing here was the mashed potatoes and gravy. Think KFC. It's good. But I didn't come here for mash potatoes to be the star of the show. We came for the BBQ. If you really want some delicious BBQ, the only place that I've discovered since moving here that I can vouch for is Jake's Grill in Cockeysville, MD. It is absolutely amazing and you get more for your buck. Here are some pictures of the "BBQ ribs and chicken" for reference. This is the ribs and chicken combo for $14. Not worth it by any any any means. You can get a half a rack (about 8-9 thick ribs) from Jake's Grill for $10.

    Is the half chicken grilled/barbecued over open flame or is it baked?

    According to the menu on their website, the chicken is cooked over their open flame pit, so the birds are grilled, not baked.… Read more

The wings come out hot every time, crispy outside, juicy inside, and tossed in whatever sauce mood we're in that day (Lemon Pepper and Mango Habanero are undefeated ). The fries deserve a shoutout too. They're those slightly sweet, seasoned fries that somehow stay good even after a 10 minute drive home, respect. Order ahead online and it's usually ready right when we pull up, super easy, no hassle. Staff is chill and friendly, and the place is clean enough that we'd dine in if we weren't so committed to couch eating and Netflix. Nothing fancy, just consistently good takeout wings. Exactly what you want from a Wingstop.

Did they call us to offer an exchange? No. Did they tell my husband of the issue and what was switched when he arrived to pick up the food? No. We ordered 15 tenders and received 3 tenders and 14 nuggets (which are 1/3 the size). My husband ordered 10 wings, 5 being Atomic. The Atomic wings were complete plain and there was a container of mild sauce and sweet and sour sauce. Called to talk to Lionel the manager who accepted no accountability and had no solutions to make things right except "you can come back here for a refund." No, we are not getting in our car to further inconvenience ourselves....we are trying to supplement our kids' dinner at home because we were shorted food with no notification. Do better, Wing Stop.

    It was my very first time stopping past Bonchon. I have heard people speak about it. And I just had…read moreto stop and give it a try. Everything in the restaurant was clean. There are seating if you would like to sit in and eat and enjoy. Our orders was taken directly. My sister got the spicy Korean chicken and I purchased the the plain crunchy. Both orders came with coleslaw. The korean spicy is just a little bit of heat nothing over powering. More flavorful then anything the chicken wings that I purchased was just fried chicken wings. But still it was seasoned very well & very good. After we purchased both orders we took our orders both to go just. To see if the ride home from restaurant. Would really make a difference? Totally shock the wings was still very crunchy? I highly recommend Bonchon.

I wanted to like Bonchon. I was at Centennial Park and figured give it a try. I can get great chicken wings in several spots, so I wanted to try something more uniquely "Korean." I should have followed the masses and got wings or bullogi (sp) fries. I was hoping the street corn with the mayo would be creamy and unique - after the first bite it tasted like corn you'd boil at home. The tacos were okay - I ordered "fried chicken" expected a good crunch, like a chicken tender, no such luck. It tasted bland with no fry crunch at all. They also needed better draining. Every bite yielded a leaky mess. The star of the show was the pot stickers - the sauce stood out but another item I can get for less. Overall, I left spending 37.00 unsatisfied. If I returned, I'd stick to wings or the chicken sandwich, but competition is top notch for that at better prices.

We ordered Stuffed Portabella, Fried Chicken Sandwich, and kids' chicken strips. All were incredibly tasty. The fries that came with the meals were probably the best local fries I've had. We were all completely satisfied with our food. Our waitress was attentive, and our drinks frequently refilled. The prices were also very fair for the great quality. I would recommend this restaurant.
