Disappointed in the Bulgogi fries because there was hardly any Bulgogi at all. It was like 6 little pieces other places normally have them all over the fries. It was our first time here, what a shame! read more

The food was a 2/5. The service was okay 3/5. We came around 9 with friends. Parking was confusing (it's at the back or on the street). Vibe was dead!!!! Only 2 other parties there with barely any background sound / music. 1/5 Would not come back. read more

Ordered delivery japchae, bulgogi and buldak. All 3 of them were obviously cooked at a low heat and were missing essential charred/wok hei flavors. The Buldak was particularly sad. Expensive for the portions. Maybe this is just a fried chicken place. read more

I was in the area and was craving some Korean chicken when I stumbled upon this franchise. I tried their Dallas location and it was amazing so I had to try this one in Houston! The food came out fairly quickly, however it was not all impressive. The Tteokbokki was good but not great, the fried rice was amazing, but I was mostly disappointed from the chicken. The chicken tasted like something you would get from chic fil la. The chicken was good but it isn't Korean fried chicken. If I was craving some fried rice this is the place to go, however I would not recommend for Korean chicken cravings. read more

Literally my favorite fried chicken place of all time. I always come here whenever I travel for vacation if there is a bonchon located wherever I'm at. The chicken is sooo crispy & full of flavor. Twice fried chicken is where it's at! I prefer the spicy over the soy garlic. The takoyaki is crispy as well & delicious. read more

It was really good, the chicken was great and Crispy, and the staff was really friendly. They even gave a you a dessert cause it was our first time. Overall, 10/10. read more

It was alright but is pretty expensive considering it doesn't taste very authentic. Not worth it in my opinion.

Before ordering, please make sure you know if you want to DINE-IN or CARRY OUT! When I arrived, my initial thoughts were to take my food to-go, but when I received my order, I decided to stick around and enjoy the meal while it was still hot. No more than 30 secs into my first bite, the manager walked over and asked me TO LEAVE since I originally wanted carryout. I asked him was I not allowed to change my mind and dine-in instead, and he replied, "My boss called and said he saw you on camera, and told me to ask you to leave because you said wanted your food to-go. I don't want to get in trouble." I politely left, but I thought this was so BIZARRE and EXTREMELY RUDE, considering NO ONE else was in the restaurant. I got there right when the doors open, so the place was COMPLETELY EMPTY. *SMH* read more

This is prob my fave bonchon location. It's located in a great part of houston and the food overall is just so good. I love the service and the staff is always so helpful. Every time I eat here its like im eating for the first time again! read more

Came with my family and order a 20 piece wing, pork bao and seasoned fries. Service was extremely slow considering there was less than 10 people in the restaurant. Never received refills and had to call a manager because I discovered a piece of plastic stuck to one of the wings. The manager suggested it couldn't have been plastic but had no other explanation. Not sure if he was suggesting I placed the plastic there that was fused on the wing on one side. All he offered was a free drink...Really?!?! If I could give this place zero stars I would. There was a reason this place was empty on a Saturday night. read more

This location and their server charged me and my 13 year old daughter $6.00 each for extra Sweet Red Chili sauce with a total of $24.00 for small black containers. Please see photos. When our food arrived the chicken had not been prepared and seasoned in the Sweet Red Chili sauce like we are accustomed to having and eating at other locations. We were informed that this particular location was only sampling the Sweet Red Chili sauce and that they only had two bottles of it left ~ this was her reason for the over charge for extra Sweet Red Chili sauce. So unacceptable. read more

- Love concept. - Terrible, Terrible, Terrible service. - You would think if there only four people in the restaurant I'd get some service. Nope - Food has come out cold every time (this was my second time at this location) - This is coming from someone is also in the service industry. - You need better service from the back to the front. read more

WHY DO Y'ALL LIE SO MUCH?! That's right. I'm talking to the consumers. How dare you? Korean fried chicken is MEH! Bih MEH. I have treid several restaurants and finally tried Bonchon and let me tell you, waste. Of. Money. First of all, why are y'all charging $17 for 8 wing parts? And the chicken is not seasoned, just the sauce they toss it in. Andddd the rice. The fried/egg rice is mushy. How? How are you not able to make a decent fried rice? Do not waste your time or money unless you like bland, barely edible, hyped foolery with a side of nonsense. I gave it a 2 because I've eaten McDonald's before and I know Jesus saves. Amen? Amen. read more

Is this a joke? I have never felt so disrespected in my whole life. This is by far the most catfish appetizer on their whole menu. Everything else is average but these damn baos had me shook. Am I suppose to feed this to birds? I even left a 20 percent tip for this bs... 11.95 for this read more

I am updating my review after giving Bonchon a few more tries. I would not recommend this restaurant for pick up or curbside ordering. I have ordered curbside three times now (two additional times since my first review) and once for pickup. I was disappointed every time. All my orders were missing something; chopsticks, sauces, sides, an entire meal! The food was okey but inconsistently prepared. I have deleted the Bonchon app from my phone. If they are still open, I may try them again next year in the hopes that they have worked out their issues. read more

Well packed food and friendly staff. They also have a bar inside! I decided to order take out and try one of their lunch specials, which was standard (pickup at bar). I was impressed by their covid procedures-temp check & masks when walking around. The bulgogi in the bibimbap bowl was pretty good and the sauce has a good amount of spice (you can choose which type of protein you want). Parking: meter parking on the side. read more

We were visiting the zoo in downtown and found this restaurant. Parking was easy, place was super clean. The wings are super juicy and flavorful. They have an extensive menu from appetizers to salads to entrees and full selection of alcohols! My husband and I love their beer on tap especially when it's served in the frozen goblet. If you're looking for good wings and great atmosphere in midtown, this is the place you want to check out!! read more

I had really high hopes for this place but sadly it fell flat. Chicken barely had any sauce on it so it was pretty flavorless and dry. Fries were at least good. read more

I don't usually write reviews for takeout/delivery from a restaurant but I have never been this dissatisfied. I ordered 24 boneless chicken wings and the Buldak. I ordered food with 2 other friends--we were starving and thought that this would be more than enough food. Since they were chicken wings, of course I was expecting normal decently sized wings like you get at wingstop or Buffalo Wild Wings. When our delivery arrived, to say we were disappointed would be an understatement. The "chicken wings" came in a very small box (think maybe just slightly bigger than a McDonald's chicken nugget box) and just filled with the TINIEST CHICKEN NUGGETS. there ended up being maybe a little more than 24 nuggets but FOR THIRTY DOLLARS is absolutely criminal. At that point we were paying for like $1/nugget the size of my thumb. I literally could've just bought a 20 piece from McDonald's and been way more satisfied. I literally don't understand how this happened or if this is just what they normally serve? Additionally the buldak portion size was pretty small too but not nearly as disappointing as the chicken nuggets. So after spending almost $60 on food, my friends and I were still starving afterwards. I don't see myself ordering or coming back here in the future. read more

This place has great wings!! The flavors are amazing and honestly I prefer them over the other basic wing flavors. It also serves other korean food like tteokbokki, bibimbap, etc. The service is great! Every time I've come here they've always been super welcoming and kind. The ambiance is calm and collected with kpop playing in the background most of the time. The only downside to this place would be the price. It's on the more expensive side. read more

a newly opened location for one of my favorite spots to eat! I've only ever tried to pearland location so I was very hopeful to see some consistency. We came on their 3rd day of opening so as expected service was slower than what would've been preferred. However the service itself was very nice and helpful. Lots of staff present (I assume for training purposes) Constantly coming to check up on us! Who I assume was the manager also came to ask how our dinner went & kindly explained and apologized for slower service. We ordered boneless wings and combo wings & drumsticks with sides of pickled radish and fries. The chicken was crispy & extremely juicy but I wished for a little bit more sauce. The pickled radishes tasted a little watered down for my liking. Fries could've been fried a bit longer as towards the bottom of the basket were soggy and not as crisp. Otherwise the ones at the top were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside! A random note that parking is limited to the street with meters. Monday-Saturday up until 6 pm you have to pay but after 6 it's free so I would keep that in mind. Overall a good experience and would recommend, wish this location good luck with future business read more

For some reason I decided to get fried chicken two nights in a row...my cholesterol will forgive me tomorrow. I have had Bonchon a few times since moving to Houston and have always gotten the wings. To me, the wings were on the expensive side, small, and the fries were meh. BUT, today I switched it up and got the Wings & Drums combo and it was a game changer. The double fried Korean chicken is sooo tasty and has a fantastic crunch. I typically get half and half soy garlic and spicy, and still don't have a preference. What made this experience better was the drums. They are large, moist, and just way more chicken than your typical wing. I am pretty sure that the small wing meal and the small wing & drum combo are around the same price--I definitely recommend going with the combo because it made the meal more filling, and honestly the drums are just all around better. I visited the restaurant for the first time today and it was very nice inside--lots of TVs and a nice big bar. The waiting staff were all INCREDIBLE. Will definitely be back. read more

If you only want Korean fried chicken and you can't make it outside the loop, Bonchon is a good choice. Their chicken is decent. If you want other Korean dishes, I absolutely do not recommend Bonchon. As a disclaimer, I base this off only trying one other dish, their bulgogi "bibimbap." Not only was it nothing like bibimbap, but it was also quite gross. The rice was like little, cold hard styrofoam pellets. There was a heaping pile of cold spongy egg strips. And sautéed diced mushrooms??? And flavorless chopped beef. And no red gochujang sauce. And like, not any sauce at all. And a bunch of cold romaine lettuce...? I dunno. I generally like Americanized-Asian cuisines if they taste good, but this was so bad. And being Korean, I was particularly disappointed. But again, chicken was aight. Also I'm not a fan of the sports bar feel, but that's just a personal preference. All the employees were very friendly and no issues with the service. read more

I've never had Korean fried chicken but have heard great things. I wasn't disappointed. The chicken had a great flavor, both the spicy and the soy garlic. They were sauced evenly and crispy. I was happy they had a beer flight so I could sample of few of the beers. Hitachino was my favorite by far! Oh, and the flavored Soju. MMMMM. I'll be back for sure! read more

Bonchon Midtown Houston - Kimchi fried rice with bacon and soy garlic chicken - Korean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Big restaurant and extensive menu. I wish I could've tried more but unfortunately I did not have the time. The food came out super fast, considering Korean fried chicken takes awhile to make. The flavors for the wings were actually good and flavorful. The spicy and soy garlic was great, however the chicken itself did not taste authentic nor was it super crispy. The fried pickles were not good and too thick but the seasoned fries were good. Overall not bad but not my first choice. read more

Loved it. Great service food was so hard to stop eating because it was so tasty and crunchy! Loved it will return

I had server Kuinn and he took great care of us. I got the medium order of wings to share. I got the half and half flavor which includes the soy garlic and spicy wings. They were super crispy and delicious. I would come back again! read more

Very good Korean fried chicken! Bonchon is a great, solid choice for casual Korean fried chicken, with a great combo of juicy and crunchy. We had a lunch special (combo of spicy and not spicy) with french fries, and it was a great lunch. read more

I've ordered from this location 3 times and have yet to visit the actual location. This place is stupid good. The chicken is so crispy and juicy. Huge portions! I was a little thrown off that the chicken had no dipping sauce, but the reality is you don't need it because it's THAT good. Hot chicken sandwiches have been trending for some time now, so if you need a break from the heat- hit up bonchon for the crisp/juice read more

I ordered via Uber eats. I got the fried rice (plain), the soy fried chicken, and the seasoned fries. I thought it was all really good. The wings were juicy, the breading wasn't overpowering but also still really crispy. The fries were fresh (not cardboardy/frozen soggy). The Togo box had ventilation so it stayed crispy during transit. I got spicy Mayo on the side. I think $1.20 for a 2oz condiment cup is a little high but it was tasty nonetheless. I think the price is fair for a casual quick service restaurant, and I would definitely order again. read more
