It was late and I've really wanted to try a place devoted to Korean Fried Chicken. I have to say…read morethat I was sad to see the mixed reviews, but bb.q was actually top heavy with 5 stars and we were starving. In our case, we were not disappointed and the menu was a lot of fun. Our server was terrific. Sweet, knowledgeable, helpful, and we eventually made decisions on an appetizer and two orders of bone in Chicken Wings. I loved the fact that they brought a liter of cold water to the table. We ordered spicy chicken - of course! We had the Spicy Galbi and the Caribbean Spice (like jerk) - both 9 pieces. The orders came with refreshing little daikon pickles. It was a great deal of crunchy delicious juicy and messy Chicken! We had an interesting appetizer. So Ddeok So Ddeok, a sausage skewer. It was tasty and took the edge off before the chicken arrived. We also had the Corn Salad. Cold! Yummy! With great texture. Surprisingly good and perfect with spicy chicken. bb.q Chicken Mansfield was fun and quite the treat. There's plenty of parking lot parking and we had a comfy booth by the window. There's also big tables and chairs. Alcohol is served as well.

The restaurant was clean and it wasn't crowded when I went with my brother on a Wednesday evening. Each table has a little cup with a bag in it so you can throw your chicken bones into it. The staff were very nice. We ordered three different wing orders and three non-wing orders. The cheese corn, ddeokbokki, and waffle fries came out a little less than 10 mins from ordering, but it took another 15 mins after that for the wings to come out, so honesty it took a little longer than I was expecting. The cheese on the cheese corn was more charred than melted and it was very liquidy at the bottom. The spicy galbi wasn't spicy imo. The secret sauce was waaaayy too sweet for my liking. Everything else was good. I really liked the ddeokbokki. Honey Garlic never misses. Definitely wouldn't mind dining in again in the future with the cook time in mind.

This was my first time there, and I wanted something small but with a lil kick, so I got the 6 nuggets, fries, and a Sprite. I got the nuggets hot, and let me tell you, they were HOT. There was too much seasoning on those little nuggets, so I couldn't enjoy the meal. But do not worry, I told the manager, and he fixed it right away with no problem. That was top-tier customer service! And for that alone, I will be back! Not to mention, they have the BEST Sprite! So definitely check them out and tell them Ms. Hope sent you!

We were in the Dallas area for a boys' basketball tournament and finished early Sunday, so we took…read morethe kids to Six Flags. The park ended up closing early because of the wind, leaving us with a group of very hungry boys and no plan. Quick Yelp search Scratch Wings popped up with great reviews, so we gave it a shot. Great decision. The spot is small, cozy, and welcoming. Mai, the owner, was super friendly and made us feel right at home. Everyone ordered wings, and my son and I went with the garlic parmesan and Korean spicy. Both were . Perfectly cooked, crispy, and packed with flavor. My only regrets is not taking a picture of my food and not ordering the lemon pepper wet -- that'll definitely happen next time. Pro tip: * Hungry? Get the 6-piece * Starving? Go for the 10-piece If you're anywhere near Arlington and craving wings, this place is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

If you're a wing lover, Scratch Wings is definitely worth checking out! I tried the Wet Lemon…read morePepper and the Korean Sweet & Spicy wings, and both were outstanding. The Wet Lemon Pepper wings were packed with bold, buttery citrus flavor and had just the right amount of seasoning. The Korean Sweet & Spicy wings were the star of the meal--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and coated in a rich, sticky glaze that perfectly balanced sweetness with a little kick. You can tell the chicken is hand-breaded and cooked fresh. The seasoned fries were hot and crispy, making the perfect side to the wings. Great food, generous portions, and flavors that keep you coming back for more. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend if you're craving some of the best Korean-style fried chicken around!

I believed the online hype about the St. Louis-style rice, so I decided to give this place a try…read more It's located in a shopping strip next to a barbershop and a salon. I ordered the St. Louis rice combo with an egg roll, Kung Pao chicken, and chicken wings. Appetizers: The egg roll was okay -- I'd give it a 3/5. The chicken wings were also just okay and a little greasy -- 3/5. Kung Pao Chicken: It was spicy, but very bland overall. I'm used to a darker, richer sauce, but this one was very light and didn't have much flavor -- 1/5. They do give you a generous portion, though. St. Louis-Style Rice: It came out hot and included bean sprouts, which a lot of places don't do anymore, so I appreciated that. The rice was dark, but even with steak, chicken, and shrimp, it still lacked flavor -- 2/5. The prices are good, service is fast, and there's plenty of space if you want to dine in. That said, it's not worth going back for me, but I'm glad I tried it.

As a St. Louis native, I had to try this spot's STL-style fried rice, and it definitely scratched…read morethat itch! It's a charming "hole-in-the-wall" place that reminded me of home, and it was noticeably clean. I'll definitely be back for more. What I Loved First off, the fried rice had that perfect dark hue it's supposed to have, and I was thrilled that peas and carrots were excluded. The portion size was incredibly generous - you get a lot for your money. I also really appreciated that the lady who helped me was upfront about them not having red pepper packets or sweet and sour sauce. Room for Improvement While I enjoyed my meal, there are a few things to note. The STL-style fried rice isn't actually on the main menu; you have to know they make it and ask for it, which seems a bit odd and makes me wonder why they don't advertise it more. And though I appreciated the heads-up about the missing condiments, they really need to stock red pepper packets and sweet and sour sauce. Duck sauce is a decent substitute, but red pepper is a must for this kind of dish. My rice also lacked bean sprouts and green onions, which was a disappointment. I'd recommend skipping their crab rangoon and homemade sweet and sour sauce; neither was very good. Finally, I ordered two large chicken fried rice orders and asked for no eggs in one, but both orders came without eggs, even though only one was marked "no eggs." Overall, it's a promising spot for St. Louis-style fried rice, and I'm looking forward to seeing these minor issues addressed

El Pollo Loco opened a few months ago and I received numerous coupons in the mail. Last Friday I decided to drop by El Pollo Loco to see what all the hype was about and use a coupon for the $5 pollo loco nachos. The nachos actually weren't bad. They were fairly tasty and a decent size. I enjoyed the chicken, queso, guac, and I even added jalapeños to the mix. I recently joined a weight loss challenge so I won't be a frequent patron of El Pollo Loco unless I drop by for a salad but I will definitely be back to sample more of the menu.

I ordered the combo meal that came with 5 shrimp, 2 pieces of chicken, 2 pieces of fish, dirty rice, fried okra, and a roll. For around $16, it was definitely a generous amount of food. The standout item for me was the fried okra. It was seasoned perfectly, served hot, and tasted fresh out of the fryer. The roll was also soft and fresh. The fish was pretty good, and the chicken was decent with a slight kick of spice. The only item that fell a little short was the dirty rice. It wasn't bad, but it could have used a bit more flavor. Overall, this was a solid meal for the price, with generous portions and a few standout items. I'd stop by again, especially for the okra.
