Bang Bang Korean Crunch in Pickering

Staff was great and the kitchen is super clean the menu is layout is great but the price does not match what you get the bag bag rise cakes are two full hotdogs cut in to 4 and you get 6 piece of rise pasta of a stick The bang burger is nothing special but i will give them there corn dog was on point Id only go for the corn dog as everything else you can make for less and get more out of it

Writing this review as i eat their fries. Delicious chicken and fries. Staff very friendly and quick. Would give 6 stars if I could.

Amazing food it was yummy so much flavour chicken was so crispy and noodles where amazing

Been here multiple times, and every time I am never disappointed, the food is amazing and service is top-notch.

They don t give me the drink but already charged for it and I asked twice if the drink is inside of the bag nice people but once I was worked there there was everything problem for these people I won t never again go this restaurant

They put wrong prices on their menu. When I pointed it out to them and asked them to update it, they gave me a stare and said no. The two TVs don t show the menu and they don t bother to turn them on. Not friendly service. They look like they don t want to be there. Overall the popcorn chicken is pretty good. We didn t try anything else.

Completely ignored me barely responded and ripped apart the chicken

there was only one worker working at the store, so my friends, the other customers and i had to wait over 25 minutes for our food. the cashier was on her phone the whole time she took our order and was hardly paying attention to what we were saying. was very short, inattentive and hard to hear talk because she was so quiet. while she was cooking our food she was also on her phone texting constantly, seemed very unsanitary as she wasn t wearing gloves and handled our food with bare hands right after using her cell phone

Had this evening, girl at counter was very nice, told me five to 8 mins, okay expecting good chicken. Ordered the cheese fried chicken, the chicken needed more salt, the cheese sauce is something along the lines of watered down tostitos cheese sauce. I should of went to the other place;

DISGUSTING. I ve been coming to this location the very first day they opened. Food was amazing, customer service was amazing & that s why I kept on going back until I saw they had new management. I decided to give them a chance and I regretted it before even receiving my food. The lady was so nasty I was in shock. She proceeded to start off by putting my buns on the grill. No washing hands. Then proceeded to make my chicken with 1 glove on, took of the glove & flipped my buns without washing her hands after she was dealing with raw chicken. She then proceeded to cash out another customer, grabbed their money, gave back change, also touch the atm machine, screen & then went to go flip my buns. I made it aware to her that she did not wash her hands after touching the money. She put her hands under the water for 0.5 seconds without using soap. I had to tell her to wash it again, WITH SOAP. She did & then proceeded to make my burger with the same buns! I told her I do not want those buns, I wanted new ones. She ignored me & then I had to keep on yelling at this point to make her get me new buns & she dashed the old ones in the garbage. On top of being unhygienic, she was RUDE & I would never go back. They should close down this place. Absolutely disgusted by her. She was a chubby, short Indian lady I believe, so if you order from her, please watch your food while it s being made. They were amazing, idk what happened.

I ordered and had to wait about 25 mins for my sandwich. I was expecting this sensational chicken sandwich,.but it was nothing beyond a normal chicken sandwich, which doesntjustify why everyone had to wait at least 20 mins for their food. There were multiple people waiting with me for their orders.

By far the worst Korean food I ve had in my life. The chicken wasn t bad, but for that price point, I think I can make better.

The Korean hot dogs are good !!

Delicious. I hate the mall, but I d go just for this.

Went to get the chicken and rice $17 it s was super small my 7 year old could have cook it after sitting down the Chinese man cough up some cold spit on floor this was so disgusting never again didn t eat nothing nasty

First time I tried this food chain as I love Korean chicken or food. We re in the area so ordered bibimbap beef. I was very disappointed as first time ever I tasted meat that s tasteless. Like no salt or even pepper. I just have to eat it as I don t want wasting food. Paid $19.20 with the tip I even gave. Will I recommend it. I don t think I will try it again.

Good presentation of food. Taste good. Friendly, efficient service.

They put a nugget on a burger instead of a full piece of chicken, was eating 90% bun. The put the wrong sauce on my boneless chicken and the rice tasted like it was days old. I wouldn t recommend this place now!

Always good to see independent shops at Food court. Make the boring food court choices more interesting. Hot dog options are slightly confusing. As theres models in display. But not actually sold. Over all ok. Nothing too impressive nor to complain about. Can improve on qc and presentation for sure.

Ordered a 6 piece boneless combo for $17.50 (chicken, fries and a drink) as pictured on their menu. Received just small box of chicken and was told they re out of fries. Ask for rice instead, as I was kind of looking for the full $17.50 meal I paid for. Was told that d be extra..? Also didn t get the drink. Buyer beware: apparently their menu prices and pictures are incorrect and they ll charge you extra for the rest of your meal. Cheaper to sit down at the Keg than it is to buy chicken in a box.

This place was perfect until the new owners to Get, not coming here

saw boneless chicken and rice on menu and thought it would come with lots of sauce and chicken bites. unfortunately it turns out to be more like KFC on top of rice with a drizzle of sauce. way over priced and chicken was super greasy. would not recommend.

First time trying this sandwich and the wait time was more than half an hour. The bun was stale and tasted bitter and there was hardly any filling inside. Will never try this place again. Very poor service and horrible food.

Very delecious food Good service Kindly persons best restaruant in pickering Food : 5/5

Amazing food Very friendly staff

Pretty good

Amazing service and amazing food. Definitely check out

Thank you for your service and excellent food

Excelent food Amazing combos Food

Thank you for the great service!!!

Ordered bang bang original hot dog & cheesy bacon fries. VERY disappointing. I could deep fry a pogo and taste the same. Fries had a shake of grated parm as the cheese?!? I expected better. First and last visit.

The young guy with AirPods working the counter touched the cheese with his bare hands (no gloves), right after touching the money in the register to give me my change gross! Then I asked him to use a new stick of cheese & he told me there was nothing wrong with it very unhygienic

Took 5 minutes for someone to come out from the back to take my order. Spent quite some time preparing my bimbimbap (10+ minutes) and i discover that the egg is raw. No idea why this would happen other than sheer carelessness or laziness as I was in no way rushing the girl nor was there anyone else in line behind me to serve. She just decided this raw egg was cooked enough and slapped it on top of my meal.

So for years I ve been visiting this place to get my bibimbap and my son a corn dog. And you know it what? It was bar-none the best in Durham for kimchi and quality. However today has been a far more disappointing experience. The rice was mush, the egg - runny AND overcooked (how do you manage that?!), veg half-frozen and missing seasoning, no hot sauce, and cheap unseasoned ground beef in place of beef strips. Plus my son s corn dog was like an old boot . All good things must come to an end, and it looks like I ll just move on from here on. Pity I won t be back again.

I went weekend this place I never eated such good hot dog ! Fantastic

Looking at these recent reviews I must say that I wholeheartedly disagree with the people whom had a less Desirable experience, but respect their opinion nonetheless. I can wholeheartedly say that this was not my experience. I approached the counter and was greeted by a friendly associate who took my order. They were pleasant and I told me that my meal would be ready within 6 to 7 minutes. I had sat down and within six minutes it was ready and I must say it was above my expectation. Not only was it delicious it was the most economical choice of all the food court. Not to discredit the other pricing systems I m just saying that bang bang gives you bang for your buck!. I had talked briefly to the person working behind the cash and then explain to me that they had recently taken over and there are a few growing pains, this probably explains the dissatisfied customers on the reviews. Honestly the chicken sandwich is unbelievable and my companion for lunch , had tried the cheese hotdog combination and they loved it along with the two choices of sauces that they provided. I wish I could remember the names but I m not certain I know one was a mixture of spicy mayonnaise , and the other one was a chilli sweet savoury sauce. Anyhow I hope you enjoy your experience and I highly recommend.

When I got my food it was already cold and not good at all. They put the wrong sauces in the corn dogs. And they wont even give you a full refund. This is what it looks like I do not recommend going here! Bad customer service as well. This is very disappointing especially for a first time costumer. That s why you guys should go too Chungchun Rice Dog Scarborough instead way better and actually delicious. Instead of here they also told me If you like cheese in the corn dog, you can order cheese dog which is only cheese in the side like who does that only on the side? Like what?! So much better if it s together!

I never expect much from food-court food but I have to say that Ive tried many a Korean sandwiches and this one was shockingly the best! Kudos!

I would not suggest this restaurant, as I now write this review from my bathroom rethinking my life choices only a mere 20 minutes after taking my first few bites. Pray for me. Way too expensive for this low of quality, and unfortunately no redeeming qualities in the way of flavor. This is not my first rodeo eating Korean chicken, but it will be my last going the bang-bang route. What went right: - Friendly service - Generous portion (unfortunately, a lot of something bad is still just bad.) - Fries were meh. What went wrong: - Quality of chicken shockingly bad (stringy, extremely fatty, almost non-existant) - The amount of chicken is disguised by a truly epic amount of crispy breading - Overly greasy (but in an off-putting and stomach destroying way) - Way too expensive at $16 for the same amount of food for a small nugget combo at Wendys (Which surprisingly but honestly tastes better) - The sauce was not appetizing. If you could bread this bad review, deep fry it, lay it on top of a bunch of meager french fries, and then cover it in gross sauce, it would still be more palatable than Bang Bang Chicken.

Got the cheese meets sausage hot dog with original sauce and parmesan and man was it good! Person at the counter was sweet and very welcoming. Food took slightly longer to prepare, but was worth the wait. Open up a place in Scarborough please!

Really good! The hotdog is tasty and same as the bang bang fries! Very friendly staff and reasonable

So good. Awesome cashier served me and my friend. Food was so tasty. Had the Bang Bang Chicken.

I had the volcano fried chicken and stuffed fries. The fried chicken has two major flaws.. One, the skin is too salty and two, the meat itself isnt salty at all. I can also go on and on.. They use leg meat to make boneless chicken, so sometimes you will bite into the tendon, which isnt a really pleasant experience as well. The skin isnt crisp at all, things just fall apart if you dont fork it hard enough. OIL is also an issue, the skin of the fried chicken looks like the oil hasnt been changed for a long time. You can smell the grease from their fries and chickens. I really hope to see an authentic Korean fried chicken in Pickering on soon.

Delicious Korean hot dogs and rare gem in the east end of the city!

Quite possibly the best chicken burger Ive ever had..

The original chicken sandwich is SO GOOD. The chicken is hella crunchy and juicy at the same time. Topped with fresh coleslaw and sweet mustard

youre going to really need to love greasy food if you want to like this, the chicken is very fatty and low quality, barely any meat because of this, but i personally like greasy food so i enjoyed my time, but i can see a lot of people disliking this type of food.

Super delicious! I got the regular Bang Bang Chicken as well as rhe Volcano. Both were super yummy. Also tried the popular Bang Bang Original (cheese and hotdog deep fried) and it was superb!

The boneless chicken nuggets were out of this world. The coating is so flavourful and crispy. The spicy sauce was amazing but the chicken tastes just as good without the sauce and thats when you know its good.

I Ordered the popcorn chicken for my kid and noticed she was barely being able to chew on it so I tried one and omg the chicken was not fully cooked...Plus the batter was so soggy....I went back and showed it to the cashier, he said: we always check the temperature and like kind of gave me the reaction that im just making this up, I politely asked him to look at it it had traces of blood in it ..He didnt say a word..I asked him to recook it again he did dip it in oil again...Well, final result: it was unedible... I shouldve asked for a full refund but its just something I hate to do..We tossed it in garbage( what a waste) I am not sure how this place is operating, no wonder its always empty...This is a safety concern folks, like you cant serve raw chicken, people will get seriously sick, ABC culinary practices... Never going back again.

The food was not cooked properly!

Food are great, price reasonable, the owner is nice and friendly except for the cashier was about to yell at me. Overall is great but will not go back if the same cashier is still working there!!

A bit expensive but you have to pay for quality. Service and presentation was better than typical fast food places. Chicken tasted really good. I will be coming back.

the burger was good, but despite getting the spiciest sauce, it wasnt hot at all. The fries were very average and disappointingly wasnt given any napkins. Probably wouldnt go back

I had their chicken burger $10 with the secret sauce that just tasted just like Thai sweet chili sauce. It over powered the chicken burger and I regret it.

Pricey and mid

Tried the super bang, stuffed fries, which are shoestring fries topped with a mildly spicy sauce; bacon; and mild, diced jalapeños. Pretty tasty, and well-presented.

I recently visited Bang Bang Chicken at Pickering Town Centre and had a great experience. The fried chicken and shoestring fries were both delicious. The red sweet sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the bulgogi bento was okay. The atmosphere was noisy, but the service was polite and the prices were good. All in all, I would recommend Bang Bang Chicken for a quick and tasty meal.

The boneless chicken was so juicy and the corn dogsare very filling. They breaded and fried everything to order so it was super fresh (and very worth the little bit of waiting)

Basically nobody would be able to figure out how the sauces taste like simply by reading the menu. I m so lucky that Liam assisted me on choosing the sandwich sauces. I got the original (honey mustard kind of thing) and I really like it, it s simply a perfect match with the chicken sandwich. Thumbs up for staff here.

The food was good but could be better service

Jonathan is super great! Loved him! - Jordy xo

Great place to come and try new foods . The worker are great very helpful. I would definitely come back.

Highly recommend the hot dogs! We got the potato head (1 regular and 1 half/half). Both were quite delicious and crispy. The bang bang original sauce is our favourite.

Very bad my chicken soak in oil

Undercooked fatty chicken, hard fries that had no taste. Terrible quality for the price. ($15 after taxes)

Got the Bang Bang chicken. It comes with 5-6 large, juicy, crunchy REAL chicken pieces (not nuggets) and shoe string fries for 13.99 + tax. Way better than McDonalds Chicken nuggets or Wendys which only include 3 chicken strips. Keep up the quality with the quantity!

Great addition to the mundane food court of PTC. A welcomed change with options such as hot dogs, burgers and chicken with different sauces. I got the chicken and was a large portion size - 6 juicy chicken thighs topped with sauce of your choosing and a lot of shoe string fries! Will definitely be trying something else next time.

Taste really good!! I love it!!!

Very reasonably priced for the amount of food you get.

I was very interested to try this place out as you don t see these types of restaurants in food court settings. Got the bang bang chicken and a half cheese half dog corn dog. Staff was really nice! The wait time for the fried chicken is too long in a food court. It took about 10-15 minutes to get my food. Since they just recently opened I feel like they will get better. Now on to the food! The corn dog had the BEST cheese pull; never ending!! The sausage was pleasant as well. One thing, the dough could be a little bit thicker and chewier. I was very surprised with the fried chicken! Amazing portions! The chicken was very juicy and not oily. I don t know why some people are confusing it in these reviews. If there one thing to note, the batter was a little over cooked. Overall this place is worth a try! Would definitely come back.

Very very greasy chicken, couldnt finish

I m so happy to see more cool Asian eats in Pickering and this place doesn t disappoint. The food is great and the service is great as well. The Korean corn dogs are a must have! Definitely coming back here :)

Staff have a lack of knowledge on their product ( could not determine if they had white meat), are extremely slow - in addition to this they forget to ensure your entire order is accounted for. ( if you eat here, double check you were given everything before you leave). The chicken was soggy with excess oil and just plain gross. It sat atop of some hard, stale fries. The hotdog meat had a weird taste to it - sadly most of the order went to the trash. Add to this one of the staff there ( brown haired girl) has her mask on under her nose with both her mouth and nose exposed at times.

got the original corn dog and the bang bang crunch, i loved how crunchy the corn dog was and the sauces added on made it tastier! the chicken was high quality with a lot of flavour as a fast food place in the mall. amazing addition to the food court, will definitely come back for more :)

Was really rooting for this place to be great as I love Korean Fried Chicken. Opened the box and received 4 pieces of chicken. One was a good size and the other 3 were the size of Mcdonald nuggets. The box was pretty much full of sweet potato fries. Good taste. Chicken was nice and juicy but not worth the 13.99 portion wise. Probably wont be back unless they fix their portion sizes.

The most amazing corndog Ive ever seen in my life. I asked for a yum yum, which was made of sweet potato ! The best thing is you get to watch them make the corn dog from scratch and I got it in less than 10 minutes (I also ordered their bang bang crunch and secret crunch ! Totally will be coming here more often for fresh Korean dogs !

greasy and fatty chicken and when i say fatty, theres actual chicken fat layered on the chicken. its just super greasy and unpleasant. the fries are good. this place has a lot of potential only of you get a better chicken supplier and improve your quality

I was excited when I first saw a Korean chicken place at PTC so I decided to give it a shot, considering they have Korean hotdogs on the menu and the chicken selection enticed me. Thankfully, I ordered online for pickup, otherwise, I would have waited at least 15 mins for my food which, overall, was ok (consider this review 2.5 stars). Theyve only been opened for about a month so I would give them another try, in the hopes that they will improve (both their food and the appearance of the place). The chicken wasnt crunchy and the fries werent crispy as it was sealed in a cardboard box for only 10 mins tops, as I ate it at home. The sauce that I had with it didnt have much of the garlicky taste, it was just... sweet. Their Korean hotdog was good with a variety of sauces to choose from, but was also missing crunch and crispiness to it. It was definitely overpriced based on its quality and taste, but again, worthy of trying again. I hope theyre reading these reviews to do better -- theres truth to all of this!

Absolutely love the food, been here 3 times now and every time the food is outstanding. Unfortunately their preparation speed is atrocious. Every item they put together they look like they are doing it for the first time and forgot the instructions. If you have half an hour to spare then the food is worth it but probably worth bringing a book or something while you wait for your food.

Ive been here three times since theyve opened. I love fried chicken. It has to be a certain crunch and flavor for it to be right. These guys hit the nail on the head- from crunch to flavor. Amazing found my new chicken spot Popeyes/KFC be warned.

The cashier kenshen was rly good!!!

Tall Asian guy with hat backwards made my potato head very good, very cute guy!

Delicious chicken, crispy out side and meat still tast tender. I wish they have more locations in GTA.

This place is very delicious! I ve compared this place to Chungchun and it s honestly near in value. This place has got very fair pricing, and they ve also got other options like fries and burgers. The loaded fries are delicious. Service time is quick too. This is a personal new mall favourite for me.

I really like this place as an alternative to Chungchun Rice dog. The hot dogs are just as good and the prices are fair. I think management has definitely improved on their fried chicken - just ordered the bang bang crunch and the chicken was cooked through and coating was crispy. Definitely not soggy. Nice to have an Asian fast food place that isnt based on rice!

Honestly decided to try on a whim as it was something new and oh. My. God. I ve never enjoyed food so much! My husband and I had a bang bang hot dog, bang bang burger and the bang cheese stuffed fries. Holy mama you can t get any better than that, polite staff, quick service great value and amazing taste. We really almost went back so we could have more later in the day as we don t live in the immediate area. New favourite food for sure and can t wait to eat more.

half cheese half chicken meat outside crispy mid fluffy inside cheesy and fleshy ketchup mayo chilli cheese powder 9/10, for not hungry or snack while window shopping is a good option if they have something like coco milk tea or fancy drink will be a good combination have a meal with these I will feeling like in the paradise

Very tasty

Finally in durham region! Sooooo goooood!!!!

My favourite place to eat when i m in Pickering Town Center. I always grab something to eat from Bang Bang when I m at the mall. Corn dogs are delicious, their bang bang chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy inside, and their cheesy bang stuffed fries is a meal on it s own. Last time i was there, i tried their new rice cake and i really enjoyed it. Definitely recommend it if you re looking for something a little bit different then what PTC already had to offer

20$ for 3 pogos, disgusting good marketing to make ppl come that y 1 star. Maybe other this on menu is good who knows..

The fried chicken is crispy and tender and tastes good! The sauce in the burger also has a unique taste

This is the best fried chicken ,so crunchy and juicy

Unique flavor and reasonable price. Definitely worth a try.

good food

nice fried chicken

The food is delicious and the price is good. If you like Korean fried chicken, you should try it

Really tasty, excellent customer services!

Very tasty food!

Ordered both the corn dogs and chicken and was very disappointed as both were greasy to the point that they were inedible. We took two bites and stopped. Either the oil is old or not hot enough because the oil is all we could taste. On top of that, half of the chicken was either pieces of skin or cartilage. Super disappointed.
