They're full of something, that's for sure: greasy, soggy fries, watery barbecue sauce, and flies in the ice machine. Full of Bull recently debuted in the old Taco Bell/KFC space on State Street, a far cry from their poorly-located first place on the near-east side. After a decent experience at their old place over a year ago, I thought I'd check out their new spot for lunch because it's close to work. I ordered the FOB sandwich and made it a combo for $2.99 extra, with the addition of curly fries and a soda. I also opted for the suggested garlic/parmesan topping on the fries, which sounded good. The total for the combo came to over $10, which is pretty steep for fast food. However, I remembered it being pretty decent before (a notch above Arby's/Hardee's and the like), so I figured the extra few bucks might be worth it. It wasn't. When my food came, I was disappointed that the fries seemed to be the same generic curly fries you'd get at Hardee's or Arby's, only worse, they were completely soggy and over-greasy. The parmesan/garlic topping was just a sprinkling of a white, dust-flavored powder on top of the fries, imparting almost no extra flavor. I've had parmesan/garlic fries at other places, and know they can be excellent when infused with flavor. Fail #1. My sandwich was big with a lot of meat, served on a decent looking onion bun. However, the 'famous sauce' served with the sandwich seemed to be a weak, extremely watered-down barbeque sauce. Fail #2. When I finished my drink and went for a refill, I opened the cup and was horrified to find several dead flies in with the ice in my cup, which appeared to have come from the ice in the ice machine. Fail #3. I was pretty fed up and grossed out at this point, so I went to throw my basket away and get the hell out of there. The only trash the place seemed to have was directly in front of the ordering counter, so I had to wade through a cluster of people who were ordering or had ordered and were waiting. Fail #4. 4 fails and I'm out, sorry.
