    Large mixed chicken

    I paid $42 for this supposingly large mixed wings!!! What happened to the old Bon Chon???? I would not go there again!

    Food: 10/10 The wings here are probably the best Korean fried chicken. They come out super hot and crispy. I prefer the soy garlic flavor over hot. The lunch combo here is a great deal as you can choose a side to go with your chicken. I tried the dumplings for the first time and they were okay. The service was great. They checked up on us and refilled our drinks. The location is clean and spacious.

    Not the greatest korean fried chicken anymore sadly. Flavor is mediocre. There are better places out there.

    Bonchon is one of the most nostalgic restaurants I have in this area and I have frequented quite a many back in the day. I went today to see if it lived up to the charm it had as a child and it certainly didn't match my loving memory. The ambiance was a bit disappointing: the restaurant was completely empty. And while the food was good it was definitely not worth the price. Service was ok. I think in the future I will leave Bonchon as a pleasant memory and not go again to ruin that which what I once had.

    Only KFC I like is Korean Fried Chicken and I have to say, for a Franchise NoVA does Bonchon RIGHT. No shade to my Orlando Bonchon but it's just a different level better here. Triple fried skin and the crispiness with adequote not too much soy (honey) garlic is just the perfect synchrony, you know? This is why I was looking forward to being back in NoVA. I had to cancel my order and then reorder 1 hour later and they were cool about it too. I can't do takeout too often bc I gotta watch my Barre figure but maybe I can eat chicken wings and so Barre at the same time to burn it off. It's that good. Family meal option gives you a lot of food under $40.

    Good service but not the best food , some food was almost flavorless. But the service was nice and fast!

    I always enjoy visiting this part of VA as there's always a great selection of Korean comfort food available. Bonchon by far has the best Korean fried chicken - biting into that crispy honey glazed skin and sinking my teeth into that tender, juicy meat is pure heaven. I'd recommend their tteokbokki (has cheese and glass noodles), although it's very spicy for those who prefer milder spice levels. I love spicy food and can handle it fairly well, but the slow intense burn ended up making my eyes and nose run. If you're sensitive to spicy food, steer clear! My nephew wanted the bulgogi rice which he enjoyed, but was too dry for my taste. The takoyaki wasn't anything the write home about. The staff were very efficient and friendly. They were prompt and attentive without being intrusive - while Bonchon is well known for their take out chicken, this location was also great for a sit down meal family. I'd recommend it for sure if you want to enjoy a comfortable Korean chicken and beer meal with friends and family!

Silent Wings is a Coffee Brown Ale from Honor Brewing out of Sterling, Virginia. As a veteran myself, I have a massive amount of respect for this veteran-owned local outfit. The brew is excellent--smooth and flavorful with a distinct coffee profile. While it was delicious in April, the flavor profile strikes me as a perfect fit for a fall or winter evening. I'll definitely be looking to stock up on this again once the weather cools down. I may never make it out to Sterling but will keep an eye out for the brew!

Our group hung out outside, where they have a large area with campfire pods, which was really nice since it was a little chilly that night. I'm not much of a beer drinker, so I appreciated that they had non-beer options on the menu along with non-alcoholic drinks as well. Emily did an awesome job taking care of our party, especially since we were a pretty large group celebrating a birthday. I'd definitely recommend getting the s'mores basket (it was a big hit with everyone). My mojito was pretty good too. One thing I'd mention is that it's probably better to order directly through your server or at the bar instead of using the QR code ordering system. We tried ordering drinks through the QR code and they never came out, even after waiting around 30 minutes. Thankfully, Emily saved the day and got everything sorted out for us.

I got a daily combo of a 1-topping half pizza and 10 wings. It's a pretty good deal since you save a few bucks compared to buying these separately. For the topping, I picked cup and char pepperoni. I had eaten pepperoni like this at a place in Manhattan (Rubirosa) and thought it was wonderful, without realizing it was known specifically as this or was a specialty of Buffalo style pizza. The half pizza was huge -- 18" in diameter and cut into six slices. The dough was thin and crisp on the bottom but had a pillowy softness throughout. The sauce was sweet. Not Papa John's sweet, but with herbs and tang to complement the sweetness. And then, of course, the pepperoni. Amazing! Crispy, slightly spicy, and cupping a little puddle of warm oily goodness. I wish they had topped the pizza with about 50% more, but that would likely raise the price and my cholesterol to unbearable levels. The wings were great! Large and plump, and cooked to just the right doneness. I hate wings where the skin is still a gooey gelatinous sheath, like waterlogged leather wrapped around a hotdog. I ordered these medium spiciness but they really seemed to match up to mild compared to other wing joints. The wings came with about 5 sticks of celery and a container of Ken's blue cheese dressing. The next time I have a hankering for pizza, I'll definitely make the 15 minute trip to Badd Pizza before considering the Domino's down the block.

When we arrived, the restaurant was really clean and the staff was nice enough. Unfortunately, everything on the menu was either sold out or we had to wait at least an hour for the food to be prepared. With the limited selection remaining, we got a fried chicken sandwich, wings, and waffle fries. We came right around lunch time so I would have expected most of the prep to be done for lunch service. The fried chicken sandwich was pretty average. It would have been elevated with more sauces and toppings. The chicken wings were just sad. It was tossed in some sauce and just thrown on a plate to be served. They were also a little dry from being burnt. The waffle fries were the best thing we had. They were fried and seasoned very well.

I am not someone who leaves reviews easily--especially negative ones. I always try to support good businesses, and if I have a bad experience, I usually just don't return instead of writing a review. However, what I observed during this visit made me feel it was important to speak up. One staff member was eating while touching the payment/ordering screen. Another employee was coughing repeatedly without wearing a face mask. I noticed these two issues first and was actually trying to mention them to the cashier. Unfortunately, the staff member who took my order went to the restroom, then returned and sat behind the cash register. While sitting there, he put his fingers in his nose multiple times. I noticed this while I was eating, and it made me stop my meal. We made brief eye contact, but the behavior continued, which ultimately led me to leave this review. In addition, the tables were sticky and did not seem properly cleaned. The floor was also not clean and had small pieces of trash. I also noticed boxes of drinks, such as water and soda, placed directly on the floor, which did not look sanitary. I'm sharing this as constructive feedback, not to harm the business. Cleanliness and hygiene are extremely important in a restaurant, and addressing these issues would greatly improve the customer experience and confidence in dining here.
