I tell everyone about wooboi. It is a must if you like delicious fried 🍗. You can get it really hot too. I always get the sando and share waffle fries with someone. The sandwich is so large, I don't know what kind of chickens these are but holy smokes they are huge. This location has chicken and waffles as an option as well.

I was excited to try this place out for the first time since I heard great reviews. As a chicken sandwich connoisseur I have to try out all of the local spots to see which I like the best. Woobois is sadly at the bottom of the totem pole. Let's start at the beginning. As soon as you enter the restaurant you are met with an overwhelming aroma of curry. I love curry, curry is great, but I don't like it in my chicken sandwiches. Especially if said sandwich is advertised as "hot chicken with Nashville heat". Next the menu. There is no description on what the heat levels are. Only no heat, mild, medium, hot, ex hot. But what is the flavor profile? What are the seasonings? I ended up trying the medium level since that's typically where my taste buds like to sit. The sandwich: the sandwich itself was gargantuan, however when I took a bite all I could taste was curry and no spice. Very unfortunate because I was excited to see what they had to offer. Now I know it's curry based sandwich. I did not eat my sandwich past the first bite because of the overwhelming seasoning of curry. I ended up talking to one of the staff members, one of which was very friendly, and the other who was cold and rude. They redid the sandwich sans seasonings and this time around was better, but not great. The only saving grace were the fries. They were good but not worth $50 of the meal I spent. Woobois is a glorified Popeyes. Will not be returning.

I've been coming since opening years ago... it's still quite busy.. however, it's been a while since I've been in.. I was sticker shocked to see prices have jumped from a sweet price of $8.99 for a Sando.. to now $13.. yikes.. at these prices, I can't really entertain eating here often.. pic of old menu from 4 years ago, current menu(March 2025), the food I got, and today's receipt. (Close to 20$ a person "meal") edit to add, the food is still quite delicious. My favorites still remain to be level 3 Sando, no bun, and the fried okra with their sauce.

The sandwiches are good but the banana pudding is my reason for the low score. It was most just vanilla wafers. Very little actual pudding. Cheaply done and I would not order it again. Feels like I got ripped off

Great food. Very spicy. Large portions of chicken. It took slightly longer to get my food prepared than I had expected but not a long wait at all.

Best chicken sandwich! Just please cook the chicken a bit longer since it is a very thick meat:)
Edit: it used to be our favorite chicken sandwich place. But today the sandos we had were way too greasy and the buns were bad. The worst part is that there was a long hair in the fries. Gross! Hopefully we won’t get sick😡🤮

Definitely one of the best chicken places around and probably one of my favorite versions of fried chicken out there! It's nicely spicy (level 3 is 🔥!) and the seasoning is very unique and pretty much perfection. I was happy to see that the Herndon location was just as good as the Alexandria one!

Mac salad is as if a 6 yr old made it. Everything on DoorDash is priced up a few dollars just bc they like taking your money. They justify the price up as just a cost of doing business, yet we pay for DoorDash, plus all of their fees and tip.
Place is basic af
Nice restaurant. Semi busy when we went there. Noticed lot of pick up orders. Food was very tasty. Halal food. #3 is very hot for us. Tenders are very tasty and large.
Parking: No problem in parking
Kid-friendliness: Yes
