bb.q Chicken Duluth

I have been loyal to BBQ for decades, even back in Korea where I only ate BBQ starting from my elementary school days. Since BBQ Duluth opened, I have never ordered from any other chicken brand for over five years. But my last three experiences have been nothing but disappointment. A couple of months ago, I wasn’t quite pleased with what I got, but I tried to understand because everyone has a bad day. The second time, I was shocked and truly sad, and for the first time I thought maybe it’s time for me to try another chicken place. Today I am beyond disappointed and extremely upset. The sauce was far too salty, the chicken had an unpleasant smell, and I was embarrassed to serve it to my friends. I brought two whole chickens for them but now I regret it because I wouldn’t even want to finish it myself. I really didn’t want to post a bad review, but the fact that I will be throwing away more than half of what I ordered leaves me no choice. BBQ needs to fix this quickly because the quality has gone seriously downhill, and loyal customers like me, who have supported you for years without ever looking elsewhere, are losing faith.

Food was excellent! Service was also great! My only complaint is they don’t let you order two different sauces when ordering a large order of boneless wings! Our server did tell us they’ll bring out the wings in two different plates but he didn’t tell us it would be more expensive this way! Nevertheless, food and service were both great so we will be back! Plenty of different sauce flavors to try! We had the honey garlic, soy garlic, secret sauce! All yummy but honey garlic was our favorite! Next time we will try ordering the wings tossed in extra sauce!

Very good fried chicken. Must try. Very crispy and light batter while chicken meat is still juicy, perfectly cooked and falls off the bone. Highly recommended.

Had kimchi fried rice and honey garlic wings. Wonderfully flavorful. Chicken was juicy with a loud crunch and good mouth feel. Hostess was attentive and polite. New favorite 🥰

My fiancée and I are on our vacation and I kept seeing it on my tiktok from other viewers. This is our second time ordering from here. The food is soooo good we had the Rose Ttettbokki, Caribbean chicken wings, and the soy garlic wings and the white rice. The chicken…is sooo crispy and the bite you take from it has that ✨crunchy goodness✨😩🍗👌🏾.

I had to get my bbq chicken fix after making a bad choice going to a competing KFC joint with a color in their name (terrible!). Bbq is better but I feel the chicken here used to be crispier! The sauces are still so good! Soy garlic is still my fav. I'll note that they give you a drink for a 5* review, which I think is cheating the system and for that, I will give them only 4*.

I’ve been here so many times,it’s literally the best! Their fried chicken is so juicy and delicious.The service is amazing! And the food the best Korean restaurant I been to.

Delicious food and great service. Attended to us quickly and noticed we dropped a chopstick and came immediately to give us a new pair. Got the fries, cheese sticks, cheeseling fries, and boneless secret sauce, everything was delicious!

Went in there place was very clean good service got recommended on a few flavors since didn't know what to choose and the cashier was very nice

The guys working there were really chill. They gave me recommendations on the flavors and sizes on the wings too.

It's a very nice place with a great atmosphere and nice employees and a good vibe. Price is a bit steep but it is worth the price! Food is delicious.

Packed inside for dinner. Outside looks abandoned, not too much to the decor inside. Simple setup for serious chicken. They offer a couple beers on draft as well as bottle. The chicken ~ crispy skin, tender & juicy meat. Cheesling was a fav, Galbi & Honey Garlic were decent. Cheesling Fries were gobbled up. Service was kind & cordial, hustling during the rush.

Got the galbi and it was fresh ,crispy and flavorful. The mozzarella sticks were crunchy with a great cheese pull.

If you love BBQ, this place is an absolute must-try! From the moment we walked in, the smell of smoked goodness had us hooked. The chicken was perfectly tender, juicy, and packed with smoky flavor -- you can tell it's been slow-cooked to perfection. Every bite had that amazing balance of sweet, savory, and just the right hint of spice. The sides were just as impressive -- creamy mac and cheese, tangy coleslaw, and baked beans that tasted homemade. The portions were generous, the service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting -- perfect for a casual dinner or a weekend family meal. You can tell the team here takes real pride in their food. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and made with care. Easily one of the best BBQ spots around. Highly recommend the BBQ chicken plate -- it's out of this world!

Recently discovered Bb.q chicken and lovin' it! They offer Korean fried chicken and you can choose from Whole Chicken, Chicken Wings or Boneless. The chicken wings are absolutely delicious and HUGE. My favorite flavor is the Honey Garlic. I've also tried a couple of their side but my favorite is the fried dumplings. I'd suggest ordering take-out since dine-in service is actually pretty slow and they ran out of a lot of things. There's plenty of parking and I love that they're open until pretty late! ESPAÑOL Descubrí recientemente BB.Q Chicken y me encanta. Ofrecen pollo frito coreano y puedes elegir entre pollo entero, alitas de pollo o boneless. Las alitas de pollo son absolutamente deliciosas y ENORMES. Mi sabor favorito es el de miel y ajo. También probé un par de sus sides, pero mi favorito son las dumplings fritos. Te sugiero que pidas comida para llevar, ya que el servicio en el lugar es bastante lento y se quedaron sin muchas cosas. Hay mucho estacionamiento y me encanta que estén abiertos hasta bastante tarde!

Food is always delicious. It's rarely busy when I stop by. It takes no more than 10 minutes for me to receive my food

Our service was great. The gentleman working our front was very kind and attentive, and at the end of our meal even took time to stand and talk with for a bit about everything and nothing at all! Really nice guy! The food was delicious. It was all hot, fresh, and well made. Chicken was super crispy and the Tteokbokki was SPICY. Loved it! Music was pumping and they had kpop on the TVs, so just it'll likely be a bit loud.

I ordered using their online platform and it was ready as promised. There was a helpful lady managing the front and she was so kind offering radish and sauces. She wasn't greedy either. Asked me if I wanted the bigger container of radish or extra packets of sauce but I only wanted one. I'm not greedy. Overall, I will recommend and will come back to try other flavors! My food was fresh and delicious.

I love bb.q's location in doraville but I must say I'm extremely disappointed in the quality served in Duluth. We ordered the half order of the soy garlic whole chicken, and we barely got any meat. It was supposed to come with 8 pieces of chicken, but some pieces were so small, I would barely count them as a piece. The chicken was also so fried beyond crispy that it was hard and difficult to eat. There was barely any meat on each piece, and the areas that were edible were hard to chew. Besides that though, we ordered the rose tteokbokki and that was good and pretty comparable to the doraville location's standard of quality.

This bb.q location opened up not too long ago and it's been on my list to try for a while. Today, I finally had a free day so My wife and I decided to stop in for a late lunch. Here's some of my major takeaways: Ambiance - This restaurant is super spacious! It's an ideal location for any group size and they have good music and food review videos playing on multiple screens throughout the restaurant to keep you entertained while you wait. The restaurant itself was also extremely clean, which I appreciated. Overall, I would rate them a 5/5 here. Service - Now speaking of your wait, just know if you are going for the fired chicken you will have to wait for at least 20/25 minutes for them to prepare the meal. This time can be extended if they are extremely busy so keep that in mind. Luckily we weren't in a rush and didn't mind the wait. Yet, while we waited, the staff were extremely friendly and checked on us multiple times before and throughout the meal to make sure we were good. Because of the staff's attend to detail and transparency with the wait time, I would give them a 4/5 here. Food - my wife and I ordered two lunch specials at $13 a meal , which came with a set of 5 wings, fries, and a drink. I ordered the soy garlic flavored wings while my wife ordered the honey garlic flavored wings. The portion sizes were definitely worth the price and the wings look just how they look on the menu! Now as far as taste goes, we both enjoyed the flavors of our wings, but if I had to recommend a flavor to get I would go with the honey garlic. I felt like it was more bold and more flavorful than the soy garlic - which was a bit more faint and not as strong as I would have liked. The only other slight issue I had regarding the wings were the sizes. Let me just manage expectations and let you know that Korean fried chicken wings are not like American wings, you can't expect to get all flats or for them to be the same size. As a result, my wings did come in different sizes and enjoyed the taste and texture of the smaller size wings more than the larger ones, which is a personal preference and not a reflection on how the food was prepared. As for the fries, they were standard fries and but could have been seasoned a bit more. And with drink, it only looked like you could order a soda with the lunch special, but there may be an option to change that for an additional fee if you ask. From that experience I would give them a 3/5 here. Overall, our experience at the location was great! I certainly would come back to try different flavors of wings and even some of the rice bowls they offer. If you're a fan of Korean fried chicken and are in the area, I would definitely recommend stopping in and grabbing a bite!

Great Korean Chicken, love the atmosphere, kid friendly and great customer service. Definitely worth it!

Came here with a friend and immediately it was great service. The food is even better and I love the vibe in here.

I visited on a Friday night. They were really busy and took a while before my group was seated. There was only 1 person taking order that night. We ordered 2 orders of fries, Rose Ddeok-Bokki, 2 spicy and 1 regular Galbi wings and a couple of sides of radish. Everything was delicious. (Please dip the fries and wings into the Ddeok-Bokki. You won't regret it). If you're looking for some delicious Korean wings, this is definitely the spot.

Fast and very nice service and food delicious as always!! Highly recommend! Also very cozy spot.

Great service, amazing atmosphere, and even friendlier people here to help first timers feel welcomed. 10/10 highly recommended.

Food was great! I loved the soy garlic chicken. The service was excellent! Love the ambiance!

Great food! The soy garlic chicken is my favorite. Highly recommended to go here if you like fried chicken - yummy!

Service was phenomenal. And the food was excellent. Restaurant was nice and clean. Friendly service. Would highly recommend.

The food here is amazing, very flavorful and delicious. Service is also prompt and kind! The ambiance is lovely, and i fully enjoyed both of my experiences here!

The service was amazing and the waiter was really nice. The ambiance and decoration inside was so friendly and inviting. Food looked amazing and delicious too!

The food is amazing and I would 100% come back it was fresh and the pieces of chicken was big and had nice proportion sizes

I love this chicken place so fucking much holy shit. one bite and i just kept eating and eating my party ate 2 whole chickens it's unusually juicy in the best way possible, maybe some sort of secret korean frying technique i recommend 10/10 my server nestor made me feel so taken care of and would always accommodate for me i'm going again next week!!

best chicken ever! so crispy and tender!! Service is nice! my friends tried for the first time and they loved it! Ambiance is very cool friendly zone

Quick service & great chicken. Great place to come to on the week days cause of the lunch special

i love this place so much it's so good. so yummy so good. definitely recommend the rose tteokbokki it's so good service is very nice very rustic and nice area

We've heard about this spot, so when we went into town we had to try it. We ate right before coming here. So we just wanted to taste the chicken. It was like an Asian Wing stop or something. Service was quick and easy, they were helpful about explaining the menu to us. The chicken was great! It was so crispy and I liked the fact that it wasn't drenched in sauce. They did give us spicy sauce to dip in. I do wish that that had smaller portions or that we could split the flavors so we could try more flavors without having to order two large orders. I do wish we had a spot like this in town. I'd definitely go back.

My families Go to Spot for Korean Wings! They always come out FRESH AND HOT and taste AMAZING! Soy Garlic is our go to and we tried the Gangnam Style this time for something new and they were DELICIOUS! My fiancé doesn't do spicy so the Jalapeños intimidated him at first but the wings are sweet, savory with a hint of spice at the end but not overpowering. So good! Fries are always spot on crispy on the outside with a soft interior, and the service is always Great! They're attentive and have call buttons in their booths if you need anything you just press a button.

The skin was crispy, glazed to perfection, and the meat was so tender and juicy. The smoky flavor really hit the spot. Tteokbokki was super good too! Place is very spacious and staff was friendly as well.

We came on Sunday around 4p and it was mostly empty inside so our party of 12 had no issue being seated. The staff was so friendly and patient with us as we chose what to get My husband and I ended up choosing cheeseling wings, wings of fire and rose ddeobokki with cheese Our friends got honey garlic wings, spicy galbi, mala ddeobokki and we were able to try some of each. Our favorite flavors are the honey garlic for me and cheeseling for my husband. The cheeseling on the fries were A+ and honestly all fries should come like that All of the wings were so crispy and tasty and I ended up getting a second rose ddeobokki to go because it's that good. So creamy, flavorful, perfectly chewy. I've had it once before at another location and have thought about it since so this did not disappoint! There's plenty of parking in the lot and don't be thrown off by the olive chicken sign like I was! Perfect for a small or large group

The fried chicken is PHENOMENAL! Best chicken spot in Duluth. The kimchi fried rice is to die for!

Everyone raves about Korean fried chicken being the best so I said let's give this place a shot. Pulling in the parking lot I was a little confused as the area is very deserted. I thought we were in the wrong plaza as it looked like the whole plaza was out of business. These little small restaurants are always the best! The food here was so Good and let me tell you about the Kimchi fried rice!!!! Now that was delicious! Usually, I don't care for kimchi fried rice but I have to say theirs here is hands down the best I EVER had it goes perfectly with the chicken. I will definitely be adding this place to one of my favorites places to eat at

Bbq chicken is the best place for chicken connoisseurs. Taste is very umami.! Chicken is the best place if you really like korean bbq fried chicken!!

Place is cozy, and the food is always good. We get the rose tteokbokki every time we go, along with the cheesling! The service is always friendly as well.

Awesome chicken and great flavors Loved the vibe and spicy original chicken and cheesling.

Soy garlic chicken. Bomb dot com. Get it. Rose ddeokbokki was superrr spicy to me but I'm a weenie. It was delicious and even though I knew the punishment would be swiftly forthcoming and painful, I couldn't stop eating it. I got the pickiest nine year olds to try it, and they couldn't get enough of it (NOT SPICY ENOUGH for them though).

Amazing service and great food We love this place! Will be coming back soon for more!

Their chicken taste worse than Publix bagged fried chicken. I don't understand how people flock to this restaurant. Chicken wasn't crispy at all and the sauce, their Special Secret Sauce or whatever was nasty as hell.

the food is always great with friendly customer service! Place is also nice and cozy!

I love bbq olive chicken so I had to go while staying in Duluth. I ordered the secret spicy boneless chicken. The food came out very fast which was nice because I was hungry! The restaurant played an eclectic mix of Korean pop music which I enjoyed listening to. I was a little sad because the chicken was not evenly covered in the sauce as I normally get it. But the food was good as always and service was pretty quick. Would recommend!

Love the chicken here! The only thing better than the food is the service! Spicy or not, they have such good flavors.

A hard 2.5. No Koreans in vision every time this place gets visited, that probably tells you a lot on the current status. The chicken pieces got way too small, wouldn't fill a terrible 3 yo's stomach. The sweet & spicy sauce is now way too sweet with extra syrup; the cook or the owner must went through a change. Rather would go to the Doraville or Suwanee location than this if the drive was not too far. No bueno job, bb.q. You gotta work it.

Amazing service, delicious wings and cold beer. First time here with my daughter, we are absolutely coming back because we now have a new wings spot. Totally recommend bb.q chicken!

Soy chicken was good, and service is very fast! Food also came out very quick too! Lots of chicken in the box too

The food always comes out hot and fresh! I love the cheeseling fries and all the sides. The service is also top tier.

BRO ONG THE ROSE DDEOK-BOKKI IS TO DIE FOR. The service is nice and quick. I also can't get enough of the quality got price

Seriously one of the best fried chicken I've ever had. The skin is super crispy but the inside is very juicy and not dry at all. I love the variety of flavors and Ive tried the cheesling, honey garlic, soy garlic flavors. All super delicious. The honey garlic is my favorite so far! The medium portion is enough for one person and large is enough for two people. Looking forward to coming back again.

Bb.q chicken in Duluth looked pretty deserted when we stopped by for dinner as the blinds were drawn and parking lot was empty. They share a lot with another restaurant but it was basically empty. Most of their orders were for to-go and there were a ton during our meal on a Thursday evening which really slowed down dine-in food arrival time. Knocking off 2 stars mostly for service. There's two... younggg adults working the front who were busy chatting instead of cleaning off tables and being responsive to patrons. None of the booths in the back were cleared off. There were only two tables at the time and it was difficult to flag them down even though we sat right in front of the counter. The other table asked for to-go containers and waited for their check but the two staff never got back to them. They went up to the counter to pay but one was on the phone with a customer while the other disappeared to the back. They looked frustrated, as were we. We finished our rice cakes and first order of chicken before the second plate even came out due to how many to-go orders there were. Food was still good though - tteokbokki was spicy and chewy $12, and the chicken was fried well. We had golden original and soy garlic. Soy garlic has a glistening coating which was still very crunchy and had good garlic flavor.
