Yes, this is the place you can find in Korea and advertised in a lot of KDramas.
Atmosphere: The Killeen location is Korean owned but the staff doesn't speak Korean, nor do they play KPop. There's clean tables and chairs, bachata/spanish music coming from the kitchen.. but nothing special about dining in. Plan on taking it to go.
Service: Staff was polite, answered any questions and were extremely attentive. Tipping is suggested at the register, even for to-go orders, so be prepared for that.
Food: I ordered a variety of things to-go and I must say everything was made to order or appeared to be made to order.
So ddeok so ddeok ($7) The flavor was good, the spicy level just right, the sausage good.. the rice cake/noodle was a bit gummy. I wont order this again but definitely worth trying if you haven't.
Side of Rice ($2) Just a plain side of rice with no flavor. Cooked well, bland but priced just right.
Takoyaki ($9) 5 little fried balls with octopus in them with sauce drizzled on top. I didnt actually care for these but I believe that it was personal preference type thing. They were cooked and prepared just like the picture.
Pickled radish ($1) These seemed like homemade and absolutely delicious.
Ranch cup ($1)Nothing special. Not homemade or high quality... Use your own ranch at home.
9 piece boneless chicken ($16) Honey Garlic. Good but not great. Chicken is crispy, hot and appears to be thigh meat. I think the honey was good but I didnt get enough of it and there was no garlic or garlic powder in my dish. I was a little disappointed with this dish.
9 wings, bone-in, ($16) Galbi. YES, YES, YES ... The flavor was AMAZING. They were hot, fresh, good size wings with plenty sauce. This was the best part of my entire meal. I'd come back just for these wings.

Read moreI am ashamed to say that I went the bb.q chicken 2x in one week. That's unusual bc we don't eat out like that. But these wings yall...they are beyond good.. they were an unexpected bliss. I was leary at first but my daughter had been with a friend and had gotten the Kimchi Rice so I told her that if we spent the money, the rice would have to be enough for lunch the next day. So, I ordered the 9 pc garlic and honey wings just to try but when we tried them, everyone was eating them! The rice lasted Thursday and Friday for lunch and by Friday evening, I was back trying another flavor of wings, plus a large order of the garlic and honey.
Oh, did I mention the customer service!?!? The young people working there are so friendly, knowledgeable and advised me on what to order. I was impressed.
I'm telling you, the best food is in the '41 so if you're new here and want good wings, go to Pluckers but if you want wings that are full of flavor, juicy, crunchy and make you slap ya mama, then bb.q...

Imagine walking downtown in Daegu. The luminous lights setting you in a glow of neon and flashes. The couples are are laughing and enjoying themselves while the older folks play games or smile as you pass. Then it hits you...the unmistakable smell. Your taste buds force you in the general direction. You know the location but that stomach knows it better. BBQ CHICKEN! You walk in and are immediately greeted with stacks of peanut oil jugs and stacks of Hite or Cass beer. Good times are definitely ahead. This place was a mainstay. You could order and have it delivered by moped or walk a few blocks for...
