I wish Yelp offered half stars.\n\nAfter trying many acclaimed restaurants featured on the food network, I've come up with a conclusion. The food at many of these restaurants kinda sucks.  They don't want to offend the restaurant, so they give good praise. In reality, the food isn't that great. It seems they are only featured because they are a staple in that community, unique or has some type of significant history. I respect that though. \n\nI like BBQ king for being all of those things, but the food is mediocre. BBQ was not smoky at all. No flavor. I don't think it's even really smoked. I am no connoisseur, but I know this isn't good Q. \n\nRegular fried chicken is good. The fried chicken dipped in BBQ is nice. Something new, not my cup of tea, but if I grew up on it, I surely would understand. Service and Cheeseburgers are good though. And most importantly, very affordable.
