Reviews for BB’s Crispy Chicken in Raleigh, NC
I've been wanting to try this place for a few months and today I was in the area, so I gave them a shot. Anna took my order and... was polite and friendly! The service was quick and my food was hot. The only drawback was the taste. This chicken is not for me.It had the perfect amount of crisp, but it lacked flavor. My suggestion would be to try the sauces which could make up for thelack of seasoning. The fries were good though, not too salty and the regular is a hearty portion. Read more
So, first time trying and I must say it has some promise. I had the hot honey, 4 chicken strips and key limeade. The hot and... honey could have used some seasoning. Chicken was uneven on the bun which means I almost lost the chicken out of the bun a fewtimes. Strips are coated in panko (I think?). BBQ sauce was not for me. Mango sauce was different but I wish I had some fishtacos to put it on. Key limeade was great. Different tang but I could not stop drinking it. Read more
It was just, fine/okay. I'm gluten-free, so having gluten-free CRISPY chicken on the menu is something of a novelty for me. I... was super stoked to try this out. The chicken itself was very juicy and very crispy, but like so many other reviewers said,lacking in ANY flavor. It's so unfortunate to try the chicken by itself just to realize that it doesn't taste more than pankoand chicken. Seriously a little salt, pepper, paprika, something would have gone a long way. The staff was great. The atmospherewas fine. I'm just super disappointed. I got the fries and sweet potato fries and they were fine but nothing to really writehome about. The sauces were okay too. The yum yum sauce was definitely good and I got the hot honey but I wasn't totally onboard. Overall, not sure if I'll try it again any time soon. Maybe I'll come back in a few months to see if they updated thereceipt or try the grilled chicken sandwich. ??????? Read more
Like many, I was very excited to visit this new AC venture, and expectations were pretty high. The experience overall was... mixed. The TL;DR is it?s an expensive fast food restaurant that is still working out the kinks and may need to revisit somerecipes. Food is not being made to order and their timing is off (cold food). Here?s the breakdown? PROS - Food came out superfast - Chicken breading/batter was crispy - Cheese curds were excellent - Vanilla milkshake was solid - Bread was the star ofthe sandwich CONS - Food came out fast, but was barely warm - Sea-salt french fries literally had no salt on them, see thephoto, find the salt for me. - Chicken breading/batter lacked flavor. It seems it was designed to be drenched in a sauce. -Chicken meat was dry Read more
Crispy crunch in every bite of a juicy chicken sandwich. Really was surprised that every bite of chicken had that crunch.... Ordered the Pimento Please and a duo of the brine cured fries and the cheese curds. Great pimento cheese for sure and that?sreally where the flavor for the sandwich resides-in the toppings. Didn?t get much flavor from the breading on the chicken (justa satisfying crunch) or the chicken itself. Realizing the fries are brine cured-they are saltier than I typically like. Cheesecurds we?re ok but salty as well(maybe that?s the point?) don?t forget the sauce for the fries, the mango sweet and sour gave meheavier pineapple but it was nice. For two with no drinks and sides it was over $30. I would go there again to try anothersandwich and maybe the waffle fries. Not a fan of the loud dining room concept. Read more
This place is way over-hyped because of the owner?s reputation. The food taste is fine but is it worth the high price and long... lines? Absolutely not. Go to a well known, more efficient fast food chain and you?ll have the same experience for a quarter ofthe cost. The prices here make no sense to me and are a large contributor to why this place isn?t worth the hassle. Why is it$11 for 3 sides but only $5 for two sides? That doesn?t make sense you could order two of the two-sides and get FOUR sides for$10 instead of three sides for $11? Who came up with this pricing scheme? And $7 for a milkshake that is just blended soft servewith whip cream? $10 for a chicken sandwich smaller than most fast food chains? On to the food, the sides were just okay atbest. The cheese curds were not good, they are like chewy rubber and the breading leaves a terribly dry feeling in your mouth.The sauce sides do not have nearly enough sauce they fill the little cups like halfway. The chicken dippers or tenders breadingwas weird and dry the same as the cheese curds. The sweet potato waffle fries and the regular fries were nothing to write homeabout. The classic chicken sandwich had no flavor at all except for the flavor of the pickles, but the chicken was juicy insideand crunchy outside. Read more
First of all, I entered it with high expectations, but I also know it was still fast food. Speaking of which, it's very good. I... got a classic sandwich with chips and three sauces (cedar mayonnaise, southwest farm and hot honey). The sandwiches werewonderful: the bread was delicious, the kebabs were delicious and the mushrooms were delicious. French fries are nothing thatbreaks the ground, but they are hot and the sauce really enhances the whole experience. The place is clean and the stafffriendly. We wait less than 10 minutes in the evening to start eating. If you came to this place just to wait for a good chickensandwich, this one really offers. Read more
The sandwiches when made with care are amazing. However 50% of the time I've been something is off with a sandwich or side. This... time, I got the new Nashville hot sandwich and large fries. Asked for honey mustard and a hot sauce on the side. Check pic forthe large fry box. It actually had the same amount I've received for a regular fry, they were cold when I received my bag, and Isaw a chef eating fries after he pushed my order through the window. The chicken sandwich was flavorful but the construction wasweird. It was like the chicken breast was folded over before it was fried and came out as a tall and narrow chicken tendershape. When I got home with my Togo order, I also found out they didn't include either of the requested sauces (this happens 50%of the time). The food is good if care is taken, and worth the price. Otherwise it's an expensive alternative for Chick-fil-A.This meal was $16 for reference. Read more
