This is place is a MUST and you HAVE to get their fried chicken, I don't know how they did it but they made the perfect crunch, they have different flavors and they all are delicious! Their other dishes like their tacos are off the chain as well. You will NOT regret coming here. read more

I am never returning to the Bon Chon that's located in Crofton, Maryland ever again. I love Bon Chon's garlic soy wings, but this location does not deliver on presentation nor taste. The first time I ordered there, I had a poor experience, but the owner and I spoke and she apologized for the poor service and offered me a discount for my next order. However, I had another poor experience with my order yesterday. First off, I ordered garlic soy wings to-go. When I got the food, the wings barely had any sauce on them and I ordered a 32 count. I asked whoever made the wings to add more garlic soy sauce on my wings, but it was only put on the top rather than all over the wings. Then, the chicken wings were abnormally big and it had a fatty texture underneath the breading. Lastly, the coleslaw that is served with the wings was extremely bland. Overall, I would not recommend anyone to buy wings or coleslaw from this business. read more

I went to pick up my online order and patiently waited my turn. The waitress completely ignored me and went to assist the guy who came in AFTER me with an online order. When I spoke up she was very dismissive. Then I again mentioned that her actions were rude. Clearly, my business isn't appreciated so I plan to take it elsewhere. The customer service here has definitely gone down over the years. read more

I mean, if you've had any Bonchon chicken before, you know the chicken is delish! It is a crispy fried chicken tossed in either Spicy or Soy garlic sauces. Both flavors are so good. I came here on a Friday night to grab a low-key dinner with drinks (or, maybe not). So, one thing I've noticed about Bonchon is that there is rarely ever a lot going on in comparison to how hectic restaurants usually are around the kitchen area. A server at another location told me it's because nothing is cooked until patrons put in an order. So, I get it. But, this place was so quiet and bland. There were about 3 other small groups in the restaurant and it just seemed so odd that it was so dead. AND, there was no bar. We were totally banking on having a few drinks like we do when visiting the Hyattsville location. We stayed to eat anyway and ordered 20 wing special (5 spicy, 15 soy garlic) and fries, but the server came out with the wrong order. He quickly corrected and brought out the correct order, but we had already went through our fries, so we just had chicken. Other than this mix up, the food and service was great. But, I take a star off for the atmosphere, or lack of. Something is missing and I probably would only come here for takeout orders and stop at Krispy Kreme nearby, if the hot sign is on :) read more

Service is terrible. Used to visit regularly but food quality and service have taken a nose dive post Covid. No wonder the restaurant is always empty! I'll go to the Columbia or Hyattsville restaurants instead. read more

The Bartender's specials were great. Margaritas for game night ofcourse! Came here with some friends, because we wanted to compare it with Kochix. Now I will say that I still like Kochix better, but this place wasn't bad. I would go here if I wanted to chill with some friends and get some drinks. The Takoyaki is the best thing that I got here! I know that this place is supposed to be all about the Korean fried chicken but after I tried a friend's chicken I was over it. BUT Takoyaki might not be for everyone. If you don't like squid, then maybe stay away. The place was really quit when we were and not many people came in while we were there, so it was a very chill environment. read more

Bonchon Crofton - Asian Fusion Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

One of a kind fried chicken! The batter for the chicken makes it sooooooooo crispy after being fried! If you like sweet and savory, you'll definitely enjoy the soy garlic flavor. While on this visit, we did not try the spicy, we did have it previously and it's like a hidden burn in your mouth lol. The spicy chicken is delicious but the spice factor was a little intense we didn't want to try it this round lol. But everyone should try it at least once, if you can bear the heat, the flavor is amazing! The takoyaki octopus balls are flavorful! The inside has a mash potato type of texture with what tasted like chunks of grilled octopus, all drizzled in a nice katsu like sauce. Comes in qty of 6 for those who like to share! The fried rice was also very good, but nothing to wow about. It's a good portion size. I would op to try something else on the menu. read more

After having eaten there, I can understand the craze and the use of the word 'addiction' in conjunction with Bonchon. The chicken is, in fact, memorable. The spicy lives up to its name, but not too much so that it becomes inedible. The soy/garlic is where it's at, though, simply amazing. I love the pickled daikon that comes with it, but I do find it a tad sweet for my taste. The other options are worth noting as well. The pork buns are pretty big, very stuffed, and highly flavorful. The tacos are even more packed, if you can believe it, and the filling (bulgogi in our case) is exceptional. My only gripes: not much of a kids menu (non-existent really), and the salmon ball was almost too much of a good thing. I know, that sounds like a pitiful complaint, but it's basically the creamy mixed krab/cucumber/mayo blend in the middle. But, imagine eating an entire ball of that. Sure, it's tasty, but the salmon is lost in the mix, and the flavor gets overpowering very quickly. Still good, but it's a lot. Best shared with a bunch of people. The staff has been super friendly so far, and they have been very quick on the table visits and refills. You can't ask for more than that. Totally addictive and well worth visiting. Yay, our little Crofton is all grown up with a Bonchon now! So happy... read more

If you have been to Korea, you know the real struggle of craving Korean fried chicken and beer. This place didn't offer beer, to us at least, but the chicken was amazing. Literally everything I was hoping for and more. We got the medium order (10) of drumstick, half & half. So my husband sweat through his 5 spicy legs and I tapped out at 3/5 soy garlic. This is primarily because we destroyed the Salmon avocado ball. The dish was *clean* when our chicken arrived. It was beautiful. An orb of avocado, cucumber and krab, tucked in under some freshly seared salmon and sauced the heck up. We agreed we could eat one a piece in the future. Sweet staff, bangin chicken. Now get some beer in there and this will be my Korean go to when nostalgia kicks in. read more

I'm so happy Bonchon is in the neighborhood! My family and I have ordered carryout twice and the food has been delicious. I love how crispy the edges of the potstickers are. They're stuffed with pork and veggies. The chicken soy garlic chicken is so yummy. The chicken is perfect and crispy and the chicken is always moist. The House Fried Rice with Bulgogi is a favorite of ours. The portions are huge! Whenever we have a lot of family over we order chicken, rice, and the potstickers and chow down! read more

Addictive chicken & house fried rice. Definitely a repeat customer.... This location is never really crowded. Fast service. Chicken is cooked-to-order so it's an approximately 30-minute wait. This location does not sell schooling beverages. read more

Bonchon Crofton - House Fried Rice (chicken) - Asian Fusion Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

I placed an order for a 20 piece wing. I am not sure if they ran out of wings or what. But I only got 15, and they gave me 5 regular drumsticks. I am assuming they ran out of wings and replaced them with the drumsticks they placed in my box. Either way, I was not told they replaced them or ran out. Then to add to that the chicken was over fried to point of being burnt. I am not sure what happend. But, I probably wouldn't visit them again. Taste like old oil was used. read more

Bonchon Crofton - Over fried chicken. Did not ask for regular drumstick. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

First thing first, Bonchon is a franchise restaurant. I have been to several location and the food is consistently good. If you have never been to one, try the fried chicken. Bonchon is known for Korean Style Fried Chicken; and you can't go wrong on the food that basically represents this place. When ordering, always order "half-half". This means you will get half-spicy and half-soy garlic chicken. The pieces are huge especially the drums. They come pipping hot and so deliciously crispy. Just writing this review makes me salivate again . The chicken comes with a side of daikon radish. It is refreshing especially when eating the spicy ones. We always eat with our eyes and get more than we could handle. One thing for sure, this chicken re-heats very well. So don't worry on over ordering. You will have a fantastic leftover the next day that will be any envy in your lunch room. Besides the chicken, I think the bulgogi is also delicious and worth ordering. My kids can eat the entire plate in thirty seconds. The rice that comes with it is perfectly cook. Lastly, I want to give a commendation to our server, PENG. He was attentive and helpful. He was patient with our table and we had a little toddler that keeps dropping things. He refilled our drinks often without us prompting him. We didn't feel hurried to eat like in other locations. He truly made our experience in the Crofton location memorable. We have not had a good waiter like him in a very long time. Kudos to PENG. If you are going, ask to be placed in his area. You will get the best service ever. read more

Love this place! Consistently good food! So happy we moved closer! I'll definitely become a regular.

So excited that there is a Bonchon near me! Even more excited that the quality exceeded my expectations! No more driving 40 mins to get great KFC (Korean Fried Chicken :P ) Chicken was super crispy, sauce was on point. Our server was so nice and was really attentive even though they were slammed. read more

This is my 2nd time going to this location. My order is always fresh and hot. That's what I love most. Everything seems to be cooked as you order. Curb side has also been a great experience. read more

This place is real hit or miss. The wings are delicious and close to authentic, a little light on the sauce but large, crispy and flavorful. The Bull dak is also very good, and you get a large portion. I was disappointed with the bibimbop and won't ever order it again. If you've had the real thing, this isnt even close. Tried a few other things and it's mostly lacking, but will keep coming back for the wings and bull dak. read more

Ordered a lunch special which came with 6 wings and side for just under 10 bucks. Not bad at all. Ordered half soy Garlic and half spicy with seasoned fries. Food came out in about 20 minutes. Wings were really juicy and flavorful without all the grease. Spicy had just the right amount of kick without being uneatable. Overall a decent luck spot to try something different from the norm. I'll be back in the near future. read more

Bonchon Crofton - Half soy Garlic, half spicy and a side of seasoned fries. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

I am done giving them chance after chance...tired of this cycle of violence. 1. Honeymoon: wings are moist and crisp to perfection and order is correct 2. Escalation: wings are slightly over cooked but order is still correct (management notified) 3. Violent act: wings are dried out, burned, with barely any meat and incorrect sides Manager and whomever answers is called...they apologize. Going forward I always say, "please make sure you do not overcook the chicken or burn it." They say, "ok". Now Repeat steps 1-3....over and over again since their opening day. Done...maybe if a get an itch, another location will scratch it. *note: When we are honeymooning, my boys and I are of course in heaven. read more

The soy ginger wings are amazing! I will give them 4 out of 5 stars due to the fact that they don't season the chicken before slightly overcooking them. The breading is definitely a winner in my book. read more

First time trying Bon Chon & I have to say it was really enjoyable. The staff were curtious, fast & efficient. The Bologi was full of flavor & delicious. My husband couldn't stop eating it & it wasn't what he ordered lol. We will be coming back to try their chicken. It looked mouth watering. read more

Food is constantly hot and fresh. This is a frequent go to for my family. The spicy is actually in a good way but if you're not into heat, stick with the ginger/main house flavor, which is also delicious. We tend to get the wings over the legs because the legs are MASSIVE and frighten me (steroids...). My favorite are the bulgogi tacos they are absolutely phenomenal. I don't care for coleslaw but actually enjoy it on the tacos. The french fries a wonderfully crispy and delicious. Last, their fried rice is flavorful and a great complement to the chicken wings and tacos. You can't go wrong here. My girls order a couple other dishes and enjoy them as well....including some type of salmon ball from the app menu and the salad which is always nice and fresh. read more

Had a bad takeout experience and asked to speak to a manager and he refused to come to the window. What could have been an easily resolved issue just became a lost customer. I should have listened to my friends that said how bad the service has become read more

Wings are very tasty and crunchy. I will visit again this place for sure ! Yum yum !

Second time at a Bonchon in America and second time disappointed. We got the combo of 10 wings and 5 drumsticks and it was 23.95 with just a tiny radish side. Wings tasted like they had been microwaved and they lack that "just fried" flavor and temperature. We got chicken katsu which was acceptable but not great. So total bill with tip was $50 which is outrageous; you can get Korean BBQ for 2 for that price elsewhere. Service was SLOW -- the family next to us was there when we got there, had already ordered, and was still waiting for any part of their order when we were almost done and it took us nearly an hour. Server took that family's unused plates and silverware off the table and put them back into the stack to be re-used again -- without washing them! I'm done. Bonchon here got 2 chances and there are literally hundreds of better Korean options in the greater D.C. area than this. read more

My spicy Chicken wings was over cooked and lacked flavor. The meat was tough like rubber. The Coleslaw was completely disgusting and had no flavor at all. This location is the worst BONCHON. I was surprised seeing that I ordered the same thing from the Bonchon in Arlington, VA a few weeks prior and the food their was amazing at the Arlington location. read more

If you are looking to eat a moist pork belly bun with authentic Korean sauces, don't eat here. My pork belly was dry and looked like it had been basted with soy sauce. And very oddly, it came topped with a ton of American coleslaw! I ordered kimchi to stuff in the buns, but that made the buns overly full and they split, leaving me with a sloppy mess on my plate. I didn't order the wings because my lunch would have been over $25 and that is just ridiculous for the quality. Wont be back! read more

My first time I ate at BONCHON WAS IN BANGKOK, so I was excited to see it here because It was so good. Well apparently in the states it is different, it was okay , for 22 dollars I got 12 chicken nuggets and seasoned fries. This would meal cost 12 dollars in Thailand. Taste was okay, will not go back read more

We tried this place in Crofton over the weekend since they are ready to open another in the Pasadena/Millersville area. At first we thought the prices were a bit high for an upscale quasi -fast food Asian restaurant. So we ordered one appetizer, the two taco dishes and the soup. Wow, it was a lot of food even with a $ 40 plus bill First of all , the tacos were fantastic. The Spicy Chicken and Beef versions were fresh,tasty and very well prepared. The best I've had in a while. The soup was very good and it was a large serving. Easily serves 2 to 3 people. Next time we will add the seafood to the soup and try it. We took two tacos home for another meal. This is a relatively new restaurant and I really liked the ambiance and decor. It was a little cold inside and the sound seemed bounced around. Somewhat noisy. They had 3 TVs but they are waiting for there liquor license. What was sort of unique was the ASIAN version of MTV playing on one of the TV screenS. After a while, it was kind of distracting. Try one of these Bonchon restaurants. You may enjoy the dining experience. read more

Great overall experience! From the service to the food, everything was on point.

We had lunch here on 7/22/17. It was weird walking into a restaurant that had absolutely nothing on the tables. Maybe it was because we arrived when they opened, but I would think they'd at least have sugar/sweeteners on the tables. It just looked strange. The young man behind the counter greeted us and told us to sit anywhere we liked. Our server arrived within a few minutes and went over the menu with us. We ordered drinks and he said he would return to take our orders. When he brought the drinks, I asked for sweetener, but he sort of forgot. I had to ask one more time, but he brought it promptly and apologized. No harm done. We ordered the combo soy garlic fried chicken - a mix of drumsticks and wings. Also got the fried rice with chicken and Japchae, a mix of noodles, veggies and thin sliced ribeye. We knew it was going to be a lot of food, but then we would have leftovers for dinner. The chicken was flavored really well, but it was a little on the overcooked side - a little dry, but still tasty. My wife said the fried rice was just OK, nothing special. I tried it and liked it, but again, a little on the dry side. I really liked the Japchae and there was plenty of it. I was happy to be able to take some home. All in all, we'll give Bonchon another go and try some of the other menu items. The staff was very friendly and other than our server forgetting the sweetener, he was very attentive. You can do worse in Crofton. read more

I LOVE ME SOME BONCHON. The staff at this location are great people. Always smiling and know their regulars. The wings are crispy and tasty and the portions and taste of the other food items are good. I love their bulgogi fried rice. It was so tasty I had to double check with our server to confirm there was no msg in the food (yes none). The menu used to be only chicken and beer. Now they have other food items and they do them well. I've also had the udon noodles and the Bibimbap. Pretty big portions with leftovers of which I usually take home for my next meal. Overall, if you want authentic Korean food including soy garlic wings....you HAVE to check this place out. read more

I really love this chicken. The food is always fresh. I was not really a fan of the fried rice. It felt like it was missing something, a sauce of some sort. This was my second visit and once again i ordered the soy garlic wings. Yum. The staff was friendly. It does take a while to prepare the food but it is well worth the wait. read more
