Tenders and Chicken katsu were good. The seasoned fries were good to. First time there. Would go back. Service was quick and efficient.

I come to Bon Chon each time I am in the area.. I ordered the chicken strips and the dumplings. They were delicious! I am never disappointed... the food is always good and the staff there are friendly . read more

I love Bonchon, but I don't like the food here the few times I've tried. The chicken, what makes Bonchon famous, is meh, and they always skimp on the sauce... Don't let this franchise ruin it for you. I would not eat it if it was free, let alone full price read more

I would like to start off by thanking Yelp for making it soooooo easy to order food from here! I've been to this Bonchon about 5 times and every time it's amazing! I'm impressed by how fast they make the food and do it all with a smile on their face! read more

The wings are crispy and delicious! The spicy sauce definitely has a kick to it. We ordered delivery ad it arrived hot and on time. Will order again. read more

Update: On Monday March 5 2018, The owner, Hai invited me to come in for a complimentary order of medium strips and cole slaw. He came over and introduced himself and told me my order was being prepared. He was extremely kind and the chicken was crispy and flavorful! He even gave me a couple of tips on reheating them at home to keep them crispy. Very pleased with the food I received. Thank you, Hai and crew! read more

I unfortunately will not be returning to Bonchon. After a friend and I order dinner to go from bonchon we both ended up spending the entire next day feeling very sick. I ordered the soy garlic wings and she had the japchae. The food tasted fine however it didn't leave us feeling that way. We assume there must have been some cross contamination between the wings and the beef in the japchae. I'm really disappointed as we really wanted this to be an enjoyable experience. read more

Give this place a chance! Most restaurants hit a bump in the road when they first in open. First off, upon entering I was immediately seated and greeted with a smile. I've never eaten here before and was given info on the menu, which helps someone like me since I like to eat everything! Sierra, was my waitress and was very attentive and help me decide what I wanted to try here! I had to try the wing for which this place is known for. Good and had nice flavor, but breading was not my style necessarily (very similar to sweet and sour breading, but crispier). I also ate the chicken Katsu over rice which sealed the deal! It was crispy, sauced evenly, and it had a spicy mayo drizzle. It was delicious and fulfilling. Sweet tea was on point too. This place is trying and you can tell by how many times the wit staff comes by to check on you! Give this place a go! read more

Let me first start by saying I love Bonchon, so I was very excited to stumble upon this location. That's where the excitement ended. Sat at night top at the bar area, and we were approached very quickly, and we ordered immediately. Nothing crazy, 2 3 items off of the lunch special menu and 2 diet cokes. After sitting for about 10 min after we ordered, I had to ask what appeared to be a manager if we could have our drinks, as we were never brought water either. He was literally followed by the first of our orders (not unusual as it comes out as it is ready). Shortly After we received our second order. At this point both glasses are empty and no one is refilling, so we ask the manager one more time for help. Food was fine, but at this point we had been there for about 45 min, and they seemed to forget about our 3 item, and order of wings. The manager can and asked if we needed anything and we let him know we never got the wings order. Once again that was followed by our waiter coming and asking if we got our wings, which we replied that no we had not. He asked if we just wanted to cancel the order which we did not. At this point a plate of wings is put by the register, where the manager picks up and gives to someone at the bar, actually set the plate in front of him, when the Maurer rushes over and says that's not theirs! He takes it from under the other customer and carried them over to us. Yeay wings!!! Over an hour later we Finally paid (after asking 2 times for the check). We LOVE bonchon, however we will never return to this location. Incredibly unorganized from what appears to be top to bottom. read more

Exceptional food and very nice ambiance inside, but it was just average service. The staff is kind of attentive but nowhere near where it should be, sadly. That being said, it doesn't stop me from coming here. Honestly it is worth it to come here just for some of the best fried chicken you've ever had. I especially love the side of radish with the chicken. If you like Korean style fried chicken or bibimbap this is the place for you! read more

Customer service is top shelf. Their food is classic Korean fusion. I felt my chicken was slightly overcooked but the appetizers were amazing. If you are looking for quick meal after shopping at the mall, check it out. You will not be disappointed. read more

This was my first time at this location. As it is new, I am usually cautious of freshly opened places but was invited by some friends. My server was friendly and outgoing and helped me decide on what I should order for the night. Food came out at the average time you would expect from any other bonchon. I ordered the strips and some of pieces of chicken seemed smaller than what I recall from other bonchons, but tasted good none the less. The servers were quite attentive on refilling my water. Overall I would say my experience was generally what I expected of a newly opened restaurant, it wasn't perfect, but I would come back again. read more

Best fried chickens I've had. The pickled daikon is delicious and on point with the fried chicken dish. Both spicy and soy & garlic are my favorite. The french fries are mouth watering. Great atmosphere and friendly service. read more

This place was good. I gave it three stars just because I didn't think it was spectacular. I have been twice. The first time I got the bull dak. The second time I got the wings. The wings are definitely the way to go. They are big and they are good! They rival Hooters wings. read more

It took about a year for this BonChon to open up, and finally it is here. The food came quickly and our server was nice. My biggest complaint honestly is that their music is so terrible!! Also, hire many ethnicities, not just one or two. read more

I like Bonchon normally. This is the first week this location is open. So they are probably still working the kinks out. The service was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive and kept our glasses full. The chairs are extremely uncomfortable. I will not be dining in again; I will order for takeout instead. Some of the larger drumsticks were cold, I think this has to do with the timing of the food. Hopefully as the staff gets more experience they will work out the food issue. If the food doesn't improve, I may update my review to dock another star. read more

I'd do 4.5 if I could. I don't like how small the location is, or the parking area....but the food is really good! The crunch on the wings is perfect, and the wings are delicious. Seasoned fries are really good too! Definitely will be coming back. read more

Excellent food, great service, wonderful atmosphere. This sums up my family and mine experience at Bonchon. We of course ordered the chicken, kimchi, and beef noodle dish which was great. But the finally was the Mochidoki ice cream. It is an ice cream surrounded by a rice cake (try the caramel). This was a nice change in the normal restaurants we go to, and our waiter Ryan was the best. read more

The server that took our order placed the wrong order and never brought us our drinks even after we asked for it and when the food finally came (40+ min later) still the drinks weren't served and when we noticed the order was incorrect he stated he placed the order incorrectly and never made an effort to fix the issue. To make matters worse the wings were over cooked and the bulgogi was terrible in taste as well. So disappointed and a waste of time and money. read more

Love the salmon avocado ball! And the sesame ginger chicken salad! We've been 3 times and love it read more

See all

First time trying this restaurant. The wings were amazing. Never had Korean Style wings before. I will sure get them again. Potstickers delicious but quite spicy "hot." Not for the timid. Loved the Bulgogi as well. Good sized portion and the beef/veggies/rice cooked perfectly. Most definitely a "do again." read more

Cute restaurant. The staff was great - super sweet and friendly. They were fast, didn't forget anything, and the food was great!

I LOVE BonChon! My favorite thing here is the chicken tenders. For 10 or 12 bucks they give you a good amount, I can never finish them all on my own. The Soy Garlic flavor is the best in my opinion. Sometimes I try other things when I'm feeling adventurous and I have to say, Out of all of the things I've tried I haven't had anything I could complain about. The establishment is always clean and the servers have always been pleasant. read more

I should have listened, but the lure of having this restaurant fairly close to me hearkened. DO NOT GO TO THIS BONCHON!!!! GO TO ELLICOTT CITY OR SOME OTHER PLACE THAT KNOWS HOW TO COOK. FIRST: I tried to call them twice to call in my take out order, the creep answering the phone hung up on me twice. This happened the last time I called, I then ordered through Yelp. Earth to Bonchon: it's not my phone, it's the TERRIBLE musak screaming right near the person who takes orders. SECOND: When I picked up my order, the "apologies" were nonexistent. In fact, the creepy supercilious person at the counter ignored me. The beefy manager came out and uttered a meaningless apology. Earth to Bonchon: Actions speak louder than words. THIRD AND MOST IMPORTANT (in fact, if this had been ok, I would not even have posted about the lousy service): THE CHICKEN STRIPS ARE INEDIBLE! Dried out, overcooked, tiny, bits of rawhide swathed in soy garlic sauce. My dog liked them, tasted like his rawhide chews. The potstickers were good, but why oh why was the chicken dessicated, dry, very tiny and tough? I have had pieces from this place in the past which were smaller and super crisp, like a chicken chip, but the management made up for it by adding more strips. Not this case, a few illustrative photos are attached. BEWARE OF THIS BONCHON: If you are shopping at Arundel Mills or live in the area, go to Chipotle or Potbelly right there or if you are addicted to this chicken, go to another location or dine in, maybe they will actually serve people and be hospitable. read more

This food was delicious!! Not a long wait at all. Friendly and helpful staff. We ordered the potstickers with the soy garlic, that signature sauce is SO good!! read more

Their chicken wing is best! I also got rice bowl, it is ok. People are nice there. The place is very cool.

Crack chicken!! I haven't had these wings since I was stationed in Korea. They are the best wings on planet earth. I have no idea why anyone would rate this place lower than 5 stars. The complaints about small wings don't make sense because they have to use smaller wings to get them so crispy. I also got an order of seasoned fries and bibimbap and they were both fantastic. Highly recommended from someone who's eaten korean food in Korea. read more

Not impressed overall, but the food I tried wasn't bad,,just not anything special. Had shrimp shumai, which was deep fried (WHAT???) with a mustardy drizzle on top. Bland and would have benefitted from a soy-based sauce. Water was served in a cute mason jar with a handle. Also had the (deep fried) pot stickers, deep frying these always seems to me the sign of a lazy kitchen. The 2 sauces drizzled on top were good - a pretty spicy sauce and a more traditional soy-based sauce. Lunch menu mostly consisted of appetizers and chicken (wings/boneless/strips) at about $1 less than the regular menu. Rice and noodle dishes at nearby tables looked more than adequate in portion size. They had a prominent sign (or 2) stating 10% discount to military's& first responders.... A nice touch in an area with a heavy military presence! read more

If you've been to Korea and had Kyochon chicken, this will satisfy your craving. Both spicy and regular are what you expect from Korean fried chicken. We've also ordered the japchae, and I can say it's the best I've had around. It had an American flare to the original dish that makes it more delicious. The reason I don't give it five stars is because 1. They don't have delivery 2. They don't offer beer 3. We've have issues with call-in orders (after calling in our order and driving in to pick it up, they "lost" our order) read more

Wife had a bim bim bap (rice, meat with veggie) here and it was the worse she has ever had. This is a franchise which just recently opened. Please pay some attention to the way you prepare food. The bbb was plane and hard to swallow. We had the same entreee in Virginia and it was fantastic. Will tolerate the fact that it is new and may need to test run but if it is a franchise, it should marry the quality with its original. Price of food is a little expensive to our taste. Parking can be tight and limited given the location. Lots of competition here so I recommend others to choose smartly before giving this place a try. read more

Weird menu. Like no veggies. Just all meat. The chicken was very good, however. My entree came out before my appetizer. I'll probably never come back. Sorry. read more

Went here today. Place was really chill and everyone was friendly. Had the wings which were fresh and crispy. I recommend when getting the wings to get the garlic version. Will try the spicy version next time. I found my new favorite wing restaurant. read more

I ordered both soy and spicy chicken combo. I've tried Bonchon from other plenty of times to know how they are supposed to be, and this location just lacked quality. They weren't fried enough, and each pieces of chicken was only half (even less) covered in sauces. read more

The service was perfectly friendly and quick, and the restaurant felt very new and clean. The location is also very convenient, though parking will likely become a serious issue in time due to the small parking lot that is shared with Chipotle and Potbelly. These traits alone made me want to love this place. Unfortunately, the food was just not that good. The portion sizes were all wrong, the chicken wasn't sauced adequately, and the several entree items we ordered to sample were bland. The photographic evidence regarding the tiny wings is all true, and I would have readily given them a mediocre 3-stars to match the experience if not for Bonchon being a worldwide chain of restaurants that gives us a base for comparison. Many of us know what Bonchon is supposed to be, and this isn't it. They are brand new, though and have clearly worked through whatever issues previously existed with the service, so I am optimistic. I look forward to trying this place again in several months and updating my review. read more

My wife and I came here about 20 min before closing. Got seated about 10 minutes before closing. We ordered a standard meal and chicken as a meal. The waiter then informed us about 10 minutes after closing that they had no more chicken, could not put in another order and that we were just going to be stuck with one meal between the two of us. First, it's a waste of our time to go out to eat and wait for 40 minutes for a meal. Second, either don't put the order in for the chicken or at least fire up the kitchen and get a meal out to your customer. Third, the waiter should not be coming to the table the manager should be. The manager did come out when we requested and he ended up making the one meal free after we complained but still doesn't make up for a ruined night. Only doing a two star because food was good and waiter was nice. read more

Love BonChon and the service was very attentive. Can't wait for them to serve beer, though! Korean Chicken and beer

To all you Bon Chon strip and seasoned fries lovers out there- this place is LIES!!!! I've been to 4 other Bonchon locations in the DMV area and the food has been amazing and consistent at each location. At this location however the food is subpar. The breading on the strips is soggy and doesn't stick to the chicken. Their idea of seasoned fries is 'freezer French fries' covered in powdered parmesan cheese-not what seasoned fries are supposed to be. Overall we were very disappointed and won't be returning to this location. Friendly staff gets 5 stars, food gets 0 stars. read more

Love the food the Waitress but the host got to go!! Not because she's big but because she's rude long face no smile!! Just because of that I give you 3 until than! read more

Terrible service and communication Charged my card three times! Then said he didn't As I was sitting there getting pinged by my bank alerts that he had. Food was not great very dry and bland. Also .95 cents extra for spicy mayonnaise sauce when everything was bland and dry is crazy it was only (about a teaspoon worth brought to us ) never going back to this place. Will be getting my money back for two extra bills after dealing with my bank and the charges totally ridiculous and inconvenient when all we wanted was a quick easy good tasting lunch... Obviously very uneducated employees on their customer service and things as simple as taking payments correctly Very poor all way around read more

Arrived at 7:50 we weren't seated until 8:34. Once seated they ran out of the following: silverware, chicken strips, and chicken drumsticks. Also for good measure we didn't get out food until after 9pm. They we're understaffed and completely overwhelmed for the crowds awaiting to be seated. Nice concept but not again. read more
