- JWJen WeitekampDec 29, 20251.0Terrible experience. We used to have three Big Chickens in our town and they closed. My kids have missed it a ton so while traveling to LA, I looked to see if they had one. Yep, found one in Baton Rouge, adding this to our trip was a huge waste of time. Ordered milk shake (on the menu) no ice cream the told me. Tried to order a platter with sweet potato fries (my personal motivation for going here) no sweet potato fries. Ordered tenders and asked for honey mustard, out of honey mustard. I could have gotten past these things but the employee working had a terrible attitude and was rude. Wearing a mask you could barely hear her whisper behind and got annoyed when I had to ask her to repeat it. Additionally, no ice in an ice machine and dirty tables while we were the only guests around. Food itself was stadium quality at best. Do not recommend.
- BBBenDec 5, 20251.0You shouldn't feel like you're asking for a favor when you place your order, employees are completely uninterested in being there. The sweet potato fries were what set big chicken apart from Raising Canes. Now it's just mediocre, overpriced & overrated with the same menu as EVERY other chicken joint. Very disappointed.
