Slightly greasy but not too much and the taste is there. I especially like their burgers. SERVICE: friendly and accommodating. I will note that my friend had tried to contact them about a mistake with a to-go order but other than that their service has been great. But beware with to go orders but YMMV. AMBIANCE: diner/sports bar. Can be loud but not too loud. Note if a game is on there may be cheering. Casual and comfortable. PRICE: well priced... if I remember correctly about $15 for a burger.

What I support for this establishment is less about its food but more about its message and the way…read moreit serves communities. Ever since 2020, the climate surrounding the George Floyd Square has changed dramatically, and this establishment has become an even stronger integral part of the community as the square itself had represented how the community thrives with its people. A lot of respect for the establishment from that perspective. In terms of food, I would say the soul food, which contained mostly sides, were the main highlight for me. The mac & cheese was salty enough. The fries were solid in a "you can't really go wrong with it" type of way. The candied yams had enough sweetness. The collard greens could taste better but standards must be lower when they're not homemade. I also enjoyed the catfish fillets as they were fried to preserve enough hotness and softness. A lot of what they served, they made on the spot, which was what may be causing longer wait for some. Meat-wise, a lot of items could use further improvement because they were too dry, such as the smoked wings and the beef brisket. The wings were dry to the point that they condensed and got extremely salty. The brisket relied a lot on the sauce and the existing fat on the meat for juiciness while the meat itself didn't have a lot of flavor or juice. As for the ribs, they had some seasoning, and tasted just fine, and weren't as dry. But I have had ribs in Texan barbeque places before and knew what "seasoned" ribs were like and therefore concluded that the ribs here were not spectacular. With all that said, however, I still will return here as often as I can because I love supporting this business. The person serving me was very hospitable and patient. I still got some pretty solid barbeque even if it's not Texas. Besides, outside just the barbeque food, the soul food was solid, like I had mentioned above.

Wanted to love this place for real, but the food for me was just average. Ribs and wings have the…read moresmokey flavor, the mac n cheese and the spaggetti was susprisingly spicy. The Brisket was a lil too tough for my liking, their bbq sauce was good, that saved my brisket.

Stopped for lunch after following this spot on socials for the longest time! Absolutely was not…read moredisappointed! Street parking available, which wasn't hard to find when I stopped in! The spot is casual, but clean and well organized! There's a bar with plenty of TVs for sports, and then other tables for groups of 2-6 people! I grabbed a spot at the bar since I was there by myself. The bartender was pretty casual, but efficient and friendly during my stay! I went with the classic Rush Hour 4, since that was what I had seen most on social media! It was delicious perfection! The fried rice is fresh, with some veggies to give it a bit of uniqueness. The chicken tenders are the star...crispy, juicy, lovely flavor! The addition of the Yum Yum sauce is lovely for the chicken OR the rice! I can't wait to come back and bring my friends!

Tender Lovin Chix moved into a sizable brick&mortar restaurant out of what I assume was a successful food truck. My to-go order came out of the kitchen quickly (~10 min) which I appreciate but I waited awkwardly at the host stand and ordered food from the bar. There seems to be table service but only one server for the whole dining room and no host. Hopefully it's just a wrinkle that will get smoothed out over time. There are TVs all over the place so the game is the vibe. The interior is clean and there's a spacious bar that looks comfortable to eat and drink at. There is plenty of seating inside and also patio chairs and tables on the sidewalk. You'll find a few parking spaces out back. So, it's got more going than your average sports bar but still seems like more of a casual spot than sit-down dining. My chicken sandwich was juicy inside and crispy outside with a buttery soft bun holding it all together. The side of fried rice had a good texture and mild, pleasant flavor. The onion rings were classic - thick and fried crisp. Everything was well prepared and tasted great. It's real comfort food that will hit just right when paired with a beer or cocktail and a win from your favorite local sports team. I didn't see many veggie options on the menu which was not a surprise. Bottom line - if you want some fried chicken, this spot is worth a shot.

I could eat here every day. (But I probably shouldn't.) When…read moreI roll in to bb.q Chicken I know I'm in for a treat. I usually order boneless wings, either soy garlic or honey garlic. I'll sit down and tuck into 8 of them. So tasty. Next time I might try the galbi or gangnam-style. So many flavours to pick from! If you're in a hurry, best to order ahead, as it takes about 15 minutes to prepare. In any case, well worth the wait. They do have some inside seating, and K-pop on a video monitor for your dining entertainment.

Probably one of the best bb.q chicken locations! Always consistent and well-seasoned.read more

We had three servers and all three gave us bombastic side eyes. I gave one back because of how rude they were. We also waited forever just for DRINKS. LIKE WHAT. And it took forever for to even order food. Our apps came three hours later when we got our meals!! Thankfully we had time. But, do NOT get me started on the bathrooms. Me and my bestie went to the bathroom and had to weave through creeps like Chuck Norris and aliens. They smelled bad and clearly do not care for public health. I mean they were GROOOSSSS. And when we finally got our food I basically lost fifty pounds waiting. AND my SPAGHETTII was basically nothing! LET ME TELL YOU: THE FOOD HERE IS WORSE THAN THIS REVIEW. AND I NEVER GOT MY WATER REFILL. ANYWAYS NEVER COME! You might get E coli.

And unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a big market for it around here. But the food here was phenomenal. I especially miss the Burnt Ends platter with corn pudding. It's also too bad, because they used to just be a really popular, small spot just up the street. Maybe they will come back in some form.

Everything tastes the way they looked, it was on point! The place has its own parking spot, not big but enough. You pick if you want to eat inside or outside.

They were open until 11 and had a great beer selection with an inside/outside option. My wife wanted to watch some of the Stanley Cup so we opted for inside. We arrived around 830 and were able to gain a seat at the bar. Bartender was amazing. Very friendly and personable. Based on his interactions we decided to get chicken tenders (Nashville) and fries and a few more beers. Overall this is a great, inviting environment. I can't recommend visiting here enough. Great food and great beer options. This is a stop you don't want to miss! Definitely worth 5 stars.

Seriously, I've probably had everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. They have an extensive collection of beers that will please anybody, with some of the best Hazys and best Sours in town, and also cocktails that work for folks that don't want a beer. The patio is superb, and although you sometimes share it with a passing train, it's tucked away and is a nice separation from the business of the surrounding north loop. I'd argue the wings are easily top 3 in the whole state, they're always crispy, and the monthly specials are clearly thought over and iterated on by talented chefs that want to try new and unique things. The pizza is also probably the best Detroit style in the city, try the Elote and you'll see what I mean. Staff is a hoot, they're all super nice, great to talk to, and have honest opinions about their own menu. Seriously, if you're anywhere near the downtown area, go here.
