Yum! We had the japchae and tteokbokki with cucumber salad on the side. The japchae was a hearty yet light mix of glass noodles, red bell pepper, carrots, spinach, mushrooms, onions, scallions, Bulgogi with soy garlic sauce, and sesame seeds. We had a pleasant cucumber salad in place of kimchi this time. It was a refreshing mix of onions, scallions, and Korean red chili powder yet not spicy. It was great to balance the spicy tteokbokki! The delicious yet fiery tteokbokki had nice chewy rice cakes, flat fish cakes, and a couple of seaweed wrapped japchae bundles. The scallions, onions in hot pepper sauce, and melty mozzarella cheese were delightful Seating was nice and open and the simple wood tables and chairs were nice and felt homely too. It's no surprise to find out about the many locations! read more

Stopped by Bonchon with my son because he was craving loaded fries. We ordered to go, but the inside caught my attention. It's a nice, casual spot with several TVs throughout, so I could definitely see this being a good place to grab some food and watch a football game. The staff was friendly and gave us time to look over the menu without feeling rushed. I'm not a fan of spicy mayo, so I asked about other options and they suggested a few, including ranch, which I went with. Our order also came out pretty quickly. My son really enjoyed his Bulgogi Fries. I thought they were okay, but they had a sweetness I wasn't expecting. After a few bites, the flavor just wasn't for me. The portion is also on the smaller side and better suited for one person. Overall, good atmosphere and friendly service. The fries weren't necessarily bad, just not my preference. I'd come back and try some of their other menu items. read more

Food was delicious Service was wonderful, waitresses we very attentive. The only thing I didn't like was the bathroom... there's no paper towels. You have to use a hand dryer then touch the door handle to get out of the bathroom. read more

Food 4.0 Service: 4.2 fast & friendly UPDATE 6/28/26: This location has been consistent with food and service since opening. We continue to enjoy all the food on the menu and always wanting more chicken after the last one is gone! I suggest the Seoul sampler since you get to try a mixture of foods (only down falls is that you can only choose one type of sauce for the chicken and potstickers) read more

I typically just order wings, but my husband and I opted to share the Seoul Sampler on our most recent visit. It was nice to try a few of the items I'd never had before (Bulgogi Fries, Potsticker & Street Corn). I wanted the pickled radish, rather than the coleslaw it comes with, so I asked to sub that out. Everything was very tasty! The chicken had light batter and was crispy. The fries were packed with flavor and had a bit of a kick to them. I really liked each item. Service was excellent. They were attentive and efficient, refilling water throughout the meal. read more

The best fried chicken I've had in a while! The Bulgogi tacos are my favorite! A definite must try!

The last time I ordered food from here was years ago since the cost is higher than much smaller locally owned Korean restaurants. I ordered the Seoul Sampler and it was yummy! It consisted of fried chicken, bulgogi fries, potstickers, pickled radish, and Korean street corn. The potstickers were fried well, tossed in sauce, and were very crispy. The chicken was fried to perfection and had the perfect combination of sweetness to spicy ratio. Bulgogi fries were my favorite was the fries complimented the very flavorful chopped up bulgogi with cheese and green onions. The Korean street corn topped with cheese and pickled radishes were delicious, however both dishes are very easy to make at home and in my opinion are not special. Service was good as the employees were friendly and attentive. There were not very many customers eating here for dinner on a weekday. I'm glad moist towelettes were provided because eating this type of fried chicken coated in sauce is very messy! read more

Bonchon - Seoul Sampler - Korean Near Me - Elk Grove, California

We hadn't been here in a while, so after my kids' dentist appointment, we decided to stop by since everyone was hungry. We ordered the mixed soy garlic chicken with drumsticks and wings, japchae, waffle sweet potato fries, and a couple of bowls of rice. It was more than enough food for our family of four. Overall, the food was good. The chicken came out hot and crispy, although it was a little saltier than we remembered. Thankfully, pairing it with the rice helped balance the flavor. The service was great as well. Our server checked on us several times throughout the meal and even stopped by to refill our water, which we appreciated. read more

I tried the limited time chicken cheese Sando but for me personally the cheese was not were it's at but I loved the flavor on the chicken itself. Throw some extra pickles on their or next time some cucumber salad and you'll have yourself a bomb meal. Definitely will be coming back and please keep updating the menu!

I did a review of Bonchon when it first opened. That was quite some time ago so I thought I would give a second try. We were looking for fried Chicken but since my girlfriend has never been there we decided to get 1 x Seoul Sampler (1 x $33.99) = $33.99 1 x Soy Garlic 1 x 4 Pork Potstickers 1 x Bulgogi Fries 1 x Corn 1 x Coleslaw 1 x Kewpie Mayo Chicken: 2 drums and 4 wings (with your choice of sauce: Soy Garlic, Spicy, Korean BBQ, or Yangnyeom). Well first off my favorites were the corn and the coke slaw, potstickers just ok, and surprise the fried chicken was just ok like the bulgogi fries. So after all these words Bonchon is just ok. Maybe I have to get used to this type of Fried Chicken, but for now I will keep searching for my favourite Fried Chicken. read more

Tacos with classic crispy chicken - pretty sad taco. Each taco had one piece of chicken that barely filled half the taco. Chicken was also bland. I guess people don't often order the classic (no sauce) chicken? Mozzarella stuffed Pork katsu sandwich - brioche bun was cold and not fluffy. It felt like it was stored in the fridge and not toasted long enough. There wasn't much pork on the katsu, mainly cheese. This place filled up quick during dinner and I had high hopes, but was really disappointed. Definitely ordered the wrong items lol and will try their standard piece chicken if I visit again. I would give 2 stars for food but the service was great. Our waitress explained the menus items well and was patient and friendly. read more

Had a craving for Korean fried chicken. We ordered a 9 piece soy glazed chicken and got some pickled radish on the side for to-go. Overall, the chicken was as good as I remembered it. The 9 piece came with a mix of drums and wings as we had requested. 2 of the pieces were large drumsticks. You can definitely tell it was double fried as advertised, because the batter is very crunchy. I've always liked that Bonchon doesn't make their chicken soggy/dripping with sauce. The pickled radish is very plain. It is literally just radish in vinegar, with no other seasonings. The unfortunate thing is that my husband picked it up and found that they did not pack any utensils or napkins. We found out when it was a bit too late and out of the restaurant already. Overall, it is a very solid place to get Korean fried chicken. read more

I did takeaway for the 3 piece classic crunch drumsticks with fries and kimchi pork belly fried rice and man the food was good! Especially the fried rice-I've never had fried rice this good before. I'm truly happy I picked this place because it can't get much better. Service was quick and friendly too. What a great place to grab a bite. read more

So this place deserves a rating every single time I come back to Sacramento because it's so good. They deserve a five star every single time I come back outstanding nothing to say besides outstanding. Their chicken is just amazing. I kind of wish I knew how they make it because if I knew that I'd make it at home and they would probably not get any more business from me, but since I don't know how they make it and it's absolutely addicting. I'm gonna keep coming back and eating here. read more

Bonchon - Wing with ginger soy. - Korean Near Me - Elk Grove, California

First time ever at a Korean Chicken Place! I was driving around Elk Grove with my son and saw Bonchon at 8246 Laguna Blvd, Ste 370, Elk Grove, CA 95758 This is a major international food chain restaurant (see picture). The restaurant was very clean although did show signs of wear due to its age. The tables are lined up together (no separated booths) which when crowded can put customers too close together. Upon arrival, we were greeted by our server, Vivian. She was polite, professional, and helped us select from the menu. She provided Superior Service in the highest standards of excellence throughout our meal. We decided on the Seoul Sampler, which had Bulgogi Fries, Pork Potstickers, Korean Street Corn, Coleslaw. Also added Korean Donuts and Kimchi. So let's start with the food. We had the donuts as a appetizer which were hot and fresh. They were absolutely delicious and was definitely different tasting than a standard donut. I think what made it so good was the dough that was used and the way that it was cooked. The sampler then came out and I began checking different items. I was more interested in the Korean Chicken as I see it many times in K dramas that I watch. Again, it was hot, fresh, and excellent quality. It tasted different than standard fried Chicken that I am used to. It was lightly coated, fried, and you had different types of sauces on it. The Bulgogi was tender beef cooked to perfection, over seasoned French Fries. (Note-I am not a French Fry person but in this case I actually liked it). The Kimchie was excellent, though a bit spicy. Cole slaw, Korean Street Corn, and Pot Stickers were also hot and delicious. Which brings me to an issue that you need to be aware. The secret to a great meal here is it must be served hot and freshly made, which Bonchon succeeds at! Getting a to go order and eating it 20 minutes later may take away from the eating experience. I really like this place and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it! Other customer orders looked excellent and all servers were customer focused. read more

If you haven't tried Bonchon Restaurant yet, you're missing out. Everything we ordered was excellent!

Will definitely be coming back regularly! read more

Love me some Bonchon! First time at this EG location. Casual place with wait service. They were also busy for takeout. Our friendly server was attentive, helpful, and efficient. We ordered the sampler plate that came with chicken, potstickers, corn, coleslaw, and bulgogi fries. We also tried the corndogs and bulgogi stir-fry udon noodles and got a side of pickled daikon (radish). Of course, we had to get the Korean donuts, that were like a big, warm and fluffy churro, but better! I enjoyed everything except the noodles. The soy garlic chicken was crispy and glazed to perfection. Corndogs were filled with mozzarella cheese and crisp fried with potato on the outside. So good! I think the bill was around $80 (with sodas), and our party of 3 left satisfied. Bonchon for the win! read more

I first came to Bonchon 3 years ago when I was craving Korean fried chicken. It was so well done that my family (from LA) thought it was some of the best Korean fried chicken they've ever had! The service was lovely and the place wasn't that busy when we came for lunch. I recently had a craving for Korean fried chicken and went two weeks ago. They added new flavors and more variety in foods. My husband and my favorite is the Yangnyeom followed by the soy garlic. So tasty and crispy it hit the spot. Especially with the radish. When we went, the place was packed, but we got seating quickly at the counter. Some other memorable favorites: tteokbokki (spicy but delicious) and bulgogi fries read more

Bonchon fried chicken is so good- my family loves it and it's our absolute go to for Korean Fried Chicken. Last week we ordered take out and it was so fresh and crispy. I'm love the newly added side dishes- the cucumbers are a must try! read more

Ordered the spicy and yangyeom flavors 39ct wings, soy garlic 5ct drumsticks, bulgogi fries, and japchae! Haven't had BC in some years, but I always tell people the stories of the Korean Fried Chicken that I loved so much at BC. Recently, now back in Sacramento, ordered a full meal for the family and myself to see how good everything still was. The wings- fire. So good. Worth the penny. Spicy was the favorite for the family, but is hot! Drumsticks- soy garlic was okay! Not bad but the flavor of the wings dominated. Regardless the large size made the drumsticks a pleasurable addition. My sibling got Korean bbq flavor and agreed that spicy and yangyeom were the favorites. Bulgogi Fries- 100/10. Do not sleep on these. Japchae- 5/10 Feeling ambivalent. Light, kinda refreshing. Recommend buying the gochuchang paste to add to give it more flavor. Personally, would not purchase again, but can see the appeal. Just lacked flavor compared to what I ordered. Korean street corn- 3/10 not as good as some I have had at Korean bbq spots. Would not order again, but still was okay. Overall, BC has held up to memory and exceeded my expectations. Some really good food thats worth the price at least every 2weeks when the new checks hit! Highly recommend the spicy wings and bulgogi fries! read more

First time EVER that I've been disappointed with Bonchon. I decided to try a different location than my usual one, and unfortunately, the experience was nowhere near what I'm used to. The chicken wings were way too crispy and barely had any sauce on them. I called to address the issue, and the woman I spoke with over the phone was very nonchalant and seemed completely uninterested in my concerns. My order was $47, and after explaining that I was dissatisfied, I was offered only $3 off my 10-piece wings--which I never even received. I'm honestly very disappointed, especially because Bonchon is a place I normally enjoy. It's frustrating to spend $47 on an order and then feel like the restaurant doesn't care about making things right. Hopefully, this location can do better because this was definitely not the Bonchon experience I'm used to. read more

The food is good, however, when you pay for 20 pieces, you should get a 20 piece and not a 15 piece. The waitress was nice however it's insulting when you tell them you only got 15 pieces and she checks your plate to see if you ate any, before notifying her. read more

Awesome food. Korean fried chicken just hits differently. Love the soy garlic flavor. If you like a little more heat you can definitely choose those flavors. I love their sides too...the cheese corn, the baos, bulgogi fries, and the jap chae. I want to try the sotteok next. I miss their salmon avocado ball though. The service is always fast and efficient. I love the ambiance...Kpop playing in the background. There's a vintage old Korean bar kind of a vibe going. read more

Great Korean fried chicken spot with plenty of other Korean classics. The Korean fried chicken is always super juicy and crispy, but I did think it could be a little saucier. Love that they come with pickled daikon (or coleslaw) for a quick refreshing bite to balance out all the fried savoriness. Bibimbap was also yummy- had the classic veggies and bulgogi taste, but the Korean street corn was disappointing. Service was good, waitress that I had was friendly and attentive. Casual sit down spot for lunch or dinner. read more

Bonchon is a well loved Korean chain known for their Korean style fried chicken. I haven't been to this location in years but it was a great experience! We came around 2PM on a Thursday, just in time for their lunch specials. The deals for the specials are pretty good, but I would recommend to order off the regular menu and share the wings with a friend for a better deal. We ordered the 20 pc chicken wings (pickled radish too) with a side of seasoned fries. Unfortunately, the seasoned fries are actually more like sad Parmesan fries. I should've looked at the photos beforehand but I did not realize there was going to be parm on there so it was a 1/5 stars for me. For $7-$8, I would SKIP the seasoned fries and try the regular fries. Ranch and literally any sauce that's not ketchup is also an extra $1 which I felt like is quite steep. The chicken was the star of the show! We got 20 pc of the soy garlic wings. I loved how it was perfectly crispy, sweet and savory. Large wing size too. 4.5/5 stars for me! All the staff and our waitress were super sweet, 5/5 stars! Would recommend to come for delicious Korean chicken and stop by for icecream across the plaza (-: read more

Been here 3 times and the food is really good. Especially if you're craving crispy, crunchy, juicy chicken. I have come accustomed to order the Yum Drum Trio which gets you 3 drumsticks sauced how you'd like, fries and their donut. The donut is the star of the show for me to be completely honest though. It's got cinnamon and sugar and then it comes with sweetened condensed milk you dip it in ‍... If you don't like the chicken, the donut will for sure get your attention... It's a lot of food for a very reasonable price. Comes out hot and fresh every time and the service is actually very quick. Now, if you venture off from the fried chicken I would say just order with caution and read the reviews. The fried rice is absolutely phenomenal but unfortunately the katsu could use some flavor. Ambiance is standard casual feels similar to a diner. read more
