Soy Garlic Wings (8pc)
Cheryl M.

*** 3.5 stars *** Newish Korean-fried chicken chain offering signature fried and BBQ-style chicken tossed in sweet, tangy and/or spicy sauces. Walked in, quickly greeted and order taken. You can also use the self-ordering kiosk near the counter to bypass the line. First time visiting and tried the soy-garlic flavor thinking it would be less sweet than the other options. Wings were crispy, juicy but a bit saucy and a tad too sweet for me that I could only eat 2 wings. Also, wasn't a fan of the exterior and prefer a lighter coating. The onion rings were light, crispy, not oily and delicious. Overall, a good try (possibly try again) and request for 1/2 the amount of sauce. This location is outside of Hmart and a better to avoid the chaos in the food court and the parking lot. Block away (across from Burger King) on the corner. For now, I'll stick to my fave mom-and-son KFC place in Hayward! :D No outdoor seating.

Service was basic online order and pick up. Kimchi fried rice 3/5, too much bell pepper bits, not enough kimchi, not enough spice. Honey Garlic 4/5. Wings were good, drums had thick coating of flour. Well cooked. I ordered 'wings' but they also gave drums. 2/5. Good type of food for to go orders. Place looks suitable for single, group, and family. Very causal.

Golden Original Wings
Angeli S.

Fried chicken! Mmm We ordered 3 flavors: golden original, honey garlic and soy garlic. All were so tasty and fried and crunchy to perfection. My fave was the honey garlic. The garlic and honey flavors were evenly distributed and not super saucy. The soy garlic was good and it didn't taste too sweet like some other places. And the golden original had a good crunch. Ordered these to go and everything came out fresh.

I didn't realize that there was a bb.q in Dublin until we stopped by on our way home. I really enjoy Korean fried chicken so of course I had to stop by to try it out. I can't remember if I've ever been to a bb.q before, but I felt like it was my first time here. It was 8pm on a Friday evening and was quite packed but there were still a good amount of tables available. The restaurant feels like I ordered two small orders of their wings since I wanted to try two different flavors - Gangnam Style (savory and sweet) and Soy Garlic (soy sauce, garlic, and honey). Both wings were delicious (saucy and crispy on the outside), but I did enjoy the Soy Garlic more since it was savory and garlicky. I thought the Gangnam tasted more medicinal, most likely because of the cinnamon I think was what the staff told me? Overall, a great spot for those who enjoy Korean fried chicken. Their pieces are decently sized too. I would like to try different wing flavors that they have and even other items in their menu.

This was a last minute decision to have a quick lunch here. We had an appt and had to make it quick. This fast food Korean place was nice and open. Still looks new. Very visible from the street and plenty of parking. Staff were ok. We tried their Rose' pasta and small order of asst Garlic wings. So the wings were way too bready and a little fatty but good flavor. The Rose' pasta had no flavor but had a hint of spice. Pretty quick service and decent prices but not sure I would come to eat here again. [7R,2026]

Ordered dinner online and food was ready by time promised. Online ordering was easy and website was easy to navigate. Restaurant was clean, shared parking lot had enough empty spaces, and an employee helped me quickly. Chicken was juicy and moist and their fries were delicious! Fried potstickers were good and not dry. I would def come back!

Chicken was good, pasta was meh, both portions were small. Customer service was alright.

Had a chance to try out this place on a Saturday after lunch rush hour. I was hoping they would do a half and half sauce with 8pc because all the sauces looked interesting. But unfortunately that's a no no. We tried Rose tteokbokki 3.75/5 It's a creamy tteokbokki. A little less spicy than the regular one. But it's yummy. I would prefer the spice level to be a little higher. Secret sauce 8 wings 3.5/5 The batter crunch is amazing. The sauce is yummy but a tad too sweet to me. It has garlic, some sort of citrusy taste (orange?) and pepper. It's listed at 2 fire level but honestly we couldn't taste the spice. The chicken pieces cooked well and tasted very fresh. The pickled raddish tastes just ok, I've had much better one. I don't know if it's because the wings are so sweet that the pickled raddish tastes muted or what. Fries 4/5 These fries are so crunchy. It's one of the best fries we've ever had in the area. Overall it was very enjoyable. The service could be better. I know everything is made fresh to order. However, just to warn people, took our chicken order over 20min to arrive during non rush dining hour. So keep that in mind and don't expect a fast food order experience. Overall I would give the place a 3.75/5

6  Spicy Galbi Wings
Vivian W.

The chicken was made to order so fresh & crispy ! We didn't like that the wings weren't tossed in the sauce but basically drizzled on. Bulgogi Japchae was hot , it didn't have mushroom more cabbage & shredded carrots pretty basic & a tad bland . Bonus - everything was hot & fresh . Don't like that you can't split flavors & you have cups for beverages. Suggestion you should have a water dispenser by your cups, they do have water for you to purchase which I think is a tad ridiculous offer your guest complimentary water. I'm sure tour guest's would truly appreciate. Your competitor brings water automatically. It could be that we're just spoiled & use to hospitality at competitor . The cashier was nice , it wasn't too busy there were a couple of tables a total of 4 & a couple of take outs . Fast & casual the interior very clean . Then we went to HMART & got desserts & WOW ! They have a bb.q Chicken in the food court ! Would we come back probable b/c it's convenient but we would rather travel the distance to eat on plates & silverware & not plastic & paper bowls .

Original Wings

Found this amazing spot while driving by Dublin. We were craving for some chicken wings and this place popped out. We were surprised to see that their chicken wings are bigger than usual. We had the original, galbi and soy garlic. All were awesome but my favorite has to be the soy garlic. Wings were completely smothered in sauce but remained crunchy! The Rose Ddeok-bokki was a perfect side dish. It was on the spicy side though so if you can't bear the heat, maybe skip it this time. Also love the Kimchi Fried Rice. Pairs well with the original-flavored chicken wings. The place was spacious, well-ventilated and tidy. I love that their water dispensers are always full of ice. Staff were fast, attentive and nice. Honestly wish they had a branch closer to home!

soy garlic
Vivian P.

Glad to see a location in the East Bay! We ordered a small order of the golden original and the soy garlic. Came out piping hot after about 15 minutes. Safe to say the quality is the same - very crispy and flavorful chicken. Comes with side of radish which is a perfect addition. Fries were super crispy. Seating is ample and the restaurant is very clean. Overall, a great experience.

Soy Garlic Boneless
Mary Y.

Love how there's so much seating here, its very open and we didn't have to wait for a seat. We got the soy garlic boneless 8 piece chicken and it was so flavorful. It's got a little bit of a kick and was so tender. They give free sides of pickled radish and it goes so well with the chicken. Free gloves are given to eat with and makes the eating experience more enjoyable! Would come again!!

Sylvia K.

Came here on Sunday at 6pm and lots of tables open! Easy to order! We got the half and half whole chicken! Great deal!

Enormous pieces with lots of sauce!…read more Ttobongee is your typical order to-go Korean chicken joint. There isn't much searing and they don't really have table service. My friends and I ended up sitting and eating since we didn't check beforehand. The portions are huge! It was a bit funny because one of the plates had a regular sized chicken drumstick hidden under all of the plumped up ones. While the sauces were great, I personally liked the Yangnyum the best! It had a sweet, tangy flavor to it. It's a small chicken shop great for to-go meals. Despite this, they still kept it clean and bright inside. Recommend for those looking for something to takeout!

They have good ol' school yangnyeum (sweet/spicy) flavor I grew up with in Korea!…read more I ordered online since I saw that it would take 20-25 minutes, according to the online platform. It was perfect timing and they graciously allowed me to switch to dining in. There are 4 tables inside so it is a bit cozy but they have a setup convenient for immersive but messy chicken eating - such as, disposable gloves and a mini-trash can. I would have dined in their shaded patio but it was getting chilly out. When I wrapped the rest of my chicken after my fill, they added an extra radish pack which I appreciated! I did notice another party who mentioned their chicken was too bland. I wasn't sure which flavor(s) they ordered, but after experiencing that their yangnyeum flavor is what I consider "OG" (more subtle, not overly sweet/spicy) I can understand. At the same time, I think this is the charm of this place that I do find most other Korean franchises try to match the current "trendy" palate that is sometimes too much for me. Thanks ttobongee for sticking with the traditional yangnyeum - really hard to come by now, especially here in the States.

Amazing Hainan chicken, sauce, and service…read more Hainan chicken soup- my little boys favorite- comes with a simple white broth chicken soup with Napa cabbage and white rice noodles. 1/4 of a Hainan chicken with peanuts and sauce. $15 5/5 Fried capelin (whole fish) $10 5/5. Nice crisp fish not too greasy, can eat the whole fish no bone issues. Very pleasant and easy to eat. Marinated duck $18 4/5 not sure if I just prefer roasted duck, but it is as advertised. Hainan chicken like duck, complete with firm skin with a tinge of sweet soy marinade. Comes with sweet white vinegar Waitress was very nice for Chinese restaurant- came and offered hot tea and water with straw for my boy even though we were just eating in a little after ordering to go. Bathroom is very clean for Chinese restaurant 5/5

3.25 stars, reluctantly rounded down to 3 stars. Has one of the best dishes I am currently obsessed…read morewith but also some dishes I am indifferent to. Been to Yummy Hainan Chicken a few times. Slowly finding a few favorites on the menu but like other restaurants, not everything I've ordered has been to my taste. K15. Knife Cut Noodle with Minced Meat a little too soft & bland. Wish the egg was less hard boiled. Yolk was chalky. Tried this years ago, soon after they opened so it may have improved since then. May give it another try in the future. K10. Chiu Chow Marinated Duck over Rice Plate was meaty. The rice plate was the perfect portion for 1 person or 2 people with light appetites. My dining companion didn't like it much as she prefers Peking duck. I thought it was OK. K12. Braised Beef Brisket and Tendon over Rice wasn't my fave. Brisket a bit too tough and dry. Also, didn't care for the flavor being more sweet than savory. K35. Salt & Pepper Capelin (smelt) was perfectly fried and salted fish. My absolute favorite item on the menu. Always order whenever I dine-in. The squeeze of lemon is essential. Took it over the top. Ate them like fries. Must try! Half Roast Duck was super yummy but much too salty on its own. Must eat with rice or their noodle soup. Always seemed to dine here in the height of the summer heat so didn't really touch the complimentary cup of soup. Will probably appreciate it more when the temps aren't consistently hovering over 100 degrees. Will definitely want to explore more of the menu to hopefully find additional favorites.

We are beyond regulars at INC 82! With five kids, four of them on skates, we practically live at…read morethe hockey rink next door, which means we also spend A LOT of time at INC 82. At this point, we sometimes joke that the staff is probably sick of seeing us! Julia does such a great job running this place, and honestly, she and her team are a huge reason we keep coming back. The staff is always welcoming and makes it feel like our neighborhood spot. The beer is great, the cocktails are great, and you really can't beat the convenience. I would love to see INC 82 build even more of a relationship with the hockey community next door. Advertising at the rink or offering a discount for hockey families would probably bring in so many more parents and teams. A happy hour would also be an amazing addition. My only other wish would be a few more healthy food options, especially for those of us who are here constantly! Overall, it's such a great local place, and Julia and her team really make it what it is. If it weren't for the staff, we probably would venture off and try other places more often, but they keep us coming back.

The staff has always been great with us. They check on us constantly, are always so friendly, smiley and we've been there so much they pretty much have our drinks memorized. Dahza and Jaden just giggle when they see us coming. Adore them so much!!! The GM Julia has been a stand out as well. There are not many GMs that out there that still love interacting with the customers by serving still. Appreciate that Inc 82 is still around!

Went to this location last night and overall, it was a good experience…read more Restaurant was really clean, although the bathroom garbage cans were overflowing onto the floor, which is kind of annoying The food was good. Chicken was super crispy always flavorful. Generous helping of the radishes so I was happy about that. The sausage and rice cake app we ordered was very interesting. I think if you eat one piece of each together it pairs well. The cheese balls were really sweet so again if you take a whole bite and get some of the melted cheese with the sweet exterior, I think it paired well. No complaints

I want to just say, Bonchon was the very first restaurant I ever tried for Korean fried chicken…read more(KFC). Long long time ago, the first location I ever went to was in Sunnyvale. Loved it. The soy garlic and the spicy were my go-to with a side of rice and pickles. I was usually not a boneless chicken girl but Bonchon changed my mind. I was feeling nostalgic so I went here. Now, I do not know if maybe everyone does their stuff a little differently, but the chicken we got here was pretty disappointing. It almost felt like chewing into a chicken meat ball. I bit to it and each piece had some air space in the middle. Almost like the ball was formed and not a whole piece of chicken. The sauce was very uneven, some pieces didnt even have the sauce on it. Overall I will not be going here anymore. With how expensive everything is lately, my meal was not worth it for the price unfortunately.
