I had a pretty bad experience. It felt like a total waste of money. To start, the soda was completely flat, not a single bubble in it. It's a small thing, but drinking flat syrup really sets a bad tone for the rest of the meal. We also tried the Bulgogi Fries. They were fine, I guess, but definitely not worth what they're charging. They are way overpriced for what you actually get. The food didn't get much better from there: Chicken Fried Rice: This was extremely "normal." There wasn't anything special about it, but for some reason, it had a weird hit of sugar in it that shouldn't have been there. Japchae: This was the real disaster. Japchae is not supposed to be sweet, but this version was sugary and cloying. It was honestly the grossest japchae I've ever had, and I've been eating that dish my entire life. Ultimately, the whole meal just felt like an exercise in late-stage capitalism: mass-produced, overpriced, oversugared and poor quality. People really shouldn't be eating this kind of food. Save your time and your cash and go somewhere else. read more

I really like the Korean fried chicken here at Bonchon! 5/5 for the chicken alone. They have boneless wings, traditional wings and drumstick Korean fried chicken options. You can get the Korean fried chicken with or without sauce. I like the Yangmgeon and spicy garlic sauces. I think the limited sides and other dishes could have more flavor and don't recommend them. I've only done take out so can't say much about the service. read more

Really good fried Chicken and great service. Great spot to grab a quick bite. I love the Korean fried Chicken with the spicy sauce and Kimchi on the side. My friend and I met here for dinner and she ended up getting the Kimchi Pork Belly fried rice. I tried a bite of it and it was delicious. I really want to try other things on their menu but the Fried Chicken wins every time. Will have to try something different next time. read more

Great service and friendly staff But the food was just meh for me I'm not really into fried chicken anyway but wanted to give this a go since it's always busy and heard good things Tried the Seoul Sampler as it has a variety of different foods * 2 drums, 4 wings, Bulgogi Fries, Pork Potstickers, Korean Street Corn and Coleslaw. Your choice of Bonchon signature sauce and a dipping sauce. The chicken itself was too large , I will say it was a nice crispy texture but I didn't care for the sticky spicy sweet glaze flavor The bulgogi fires were good , potstickers were ok Not a fan of the street corn I can see why this place is popular if your a fried chicken fan - just not for me read more

My favorite fried chicken spot The service at this location is great, and the food is delicious. The last time I went, I had the loaded fries, street corn, and of course the Korean fried chicken. So good!! This time I tried the new Yangnyeom flavor and it was delicious. 100% recommend. read more

Was randomly in the area and looking for dinner one night.. started heading to a certain establishment but then saw bonchon and decided to veer left... and boy am I glad we did! Didn't expect it to be "sit down" so that was a fun surprise, and while the chairs were terribly uncomfortable, it was made up for by the kindness of the staff and the amazingness of the chicken! The server helped us walk through the menu and in the end we chose the drum sticks, the wings and the bulgogi fries. We also each got a coleslaw and a pickled radish. The fries were kind of boring but still good.. probably a one and done for us. BUT THE CHICKEN!!!!!!!!! You can do 2 flavors on one plate so I got the wings with the garlic soy and the new crispy chicken seasoning and my friend got the garlic soy and the Korean BBQ. We almost couldn't decide which we liked best, (but when we came back 2 days later again, I was totally craving the crispy chicken seasoning!!). I think the crispy chicken is limited time, but I hope they make it permanent at some point because it is mouth drooling good! But either way we will be back for more! read more

Bonchon, to me, is a good idea with mediocre execution. It's basically fast casual Korean food with a focus on Korean Fried Chicken. But the quality is comparable to Panda Express. Maybe that's a little harsh. In an area with very few Koran options--and by area, I mean all of Minnesota, not just Maple Grove--maybe the novelty of it stands out. But most.big cities have more of a thriving Asian-influenced food scene and more authentic places to get KFC. The biggest problem is that the chicken isn't very good. And it is very expensive. It's not wax crispy as you'd expect and the sauces, usually hand painted on at a better place, are usually unevenly applied leaving areas uncovered, which just shows a lack of attention to detail, because the entire point of brushing them on is supposed to be ensuring even coverage. The other dishes, honestly, are better. More often than not, I just order the bibimbap instead. It's over-priced, but, again, it's not like there are a lot of places to get one around her, and it's predictably reliable. The same goes for the noodle dishes and fried rice. read more

*updated review* I have finally eaten in restaurant and the experience was fantastic! All of the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The place is larger than it looks from the outside and there is plenty of comfortable seating. It is very bright inside with a minimalistic vibe that I like. All the food comes out beautifully hot, fresh and yummy. And if you order chicken they bring you a separate bucket for you bones. It's little things like that that really elevate an experience. read more

Love it here! The fried chicken was the fan favorite, so crispy. We got the classic crunch which is like a salty super tasty dry rub and not spicy. We also got the yangnyeom which was like a sweet and spicy glaze. This one definitely had some heat to it. For other dishes we got the bulgogi udon which was really tasty. The fried rice has good flavor as well. The donuts were fluffy on the inside and slight crisp on the outside with a sweet dipping sauce. Everything was amazing! We got it to go and the chicken stayed crispy. Put them in the air fryer the next day and it was just as good! read more

I know this is a chicken joint but the Bao Buns are where it's at. Specifically the Bulgogi ones. We actually ordered a second order we liked them so much. Awesome flavor, pillowy buns, refreshing cucumbers *chefs kiss* The chicken wings were fine, but not really notable. The service was kind of like the chicken. Could've been better, could've been worse. I will say, though, that this place is immaculate. Everything was cleared and cleaned in a super efficient manner. read more

I love Korean food and it's so nice to have a casual Korean place nearby. My husband LOVES the wings, and they smelled really good! I got the bibimbap bowl. I loved all the flavors except I didn't like the spicy chicken.. next time I want to get the traditional bulbogi beef. The spicy chicken was overpowering. I also like their tacos. Definitely check this place out! read more

Very unique and interesting menu. Took some time to sort through to take advantage of all the flavors and options. Ordered wings with a few different flavors as well as bulgogi fries. Food came out fast, fresh and good sized portions. Everything was pretty tasty and unique, the Korean fried chicken was our favorite. Food & service was good and we will be back. About a half our after eating we felt dizzy and a little buzzed, we did not have any alcohol. Not sure if the food was loaded with MSG or other preservatives that messed with us, curious if anyone else experienced this feeling buzzed & dizzy feeling. read more

Overpriced and very mid food. Definitely not authentic Korean food. The bibimbap comes with scrambled egg (why?!) so I asked if they could instead do a fried egg. Waiter said it would be extra, I asked to please ask if it could just be substituted for me. He agreed to do it but never did, just brought the food with no scrambled egg but an oddly fried/poached egg and the extra charge for it on my receipt. The vegetables in the bibimbap were flavorless and I'm confused as to why they put shredded lettuce in it. It's giving chipotle. Kimchi was extra limp, takotaki was also just blah. Overall I'd say if you dunk this good in a lot of sauce it could be good. Ask for extra sauce if everything... Would not recommend would not return. read more

Tried this place for the first time. The restaurant was very clean. I had the Korean bbq wings and the seasoned fries. The wings were so crunchy with the perfect amount of sauce.

So good. Perfectly fried chicken. It's so incredibly good. Don't door dash, it needs to be eaten fresh. 10/5. The best fried chicken in the area. Service also top notch at this location. They really care. read more

Enjoyed the garlic soy and Korean barbecue wings. Also had the corn dog which instead of a hot dog is cheese centered. Different and delicious. Plenty of parking over lunch. Some of the best wings I have had Will be back. Great prompt service. Big parking lot and was busy but not overwhelmed at lunchtime read more

I've been going to Bonchon a long time. Always love their wings (half soy garlic, half spicy). I really hate that they stopped serving the salmon ball which was incredible. The locations I've been always have a nice clean interior. Service is good as well. Looking forward to going back and trying other menu items if I can get myself to stop ordering the wings! read more

Bonchon has the best fried chicken, their drums are always huge! We got the medium combo for two people but we could've done the small with how big the chicken was. The fries are some of the best I've had, they have a great crisp and seasoned perfectly. The Bulgogi Korean tacos have a great flavor with the mix of sauces and come with a lot of meat. The service is great and the food comes out fast. read more

The food was extremely good, especially when you consider that was takeout. Issues arose when I tried eating inside, though. The place is way too small for how busy it gets during the dinner rush. Basically, if you want to eat here, either order takeout, or eat late/early. read more

My first time having Korean fried chicken. Man!! This was delicious. As a group of friends, we had half n half spicy and garlic. Wings and drumsticks. The spicy was a bit too hot for me but I'm a baby. The drumsticks are meaty! We had kimchi, Cole slaw and seasoned fries as well. All of it, highly recommended. read more

We only ordered Bonchons delivery before but never went to their actual restaurant and here we are. The restaurant feels a little crowded with tables but luckily when we went, it wasn't too busy. We like the wings combo a lot, we have half and half sauce and the spicy one has a good heat to it. The salmon avocado ball is quiet a surprise. The sauce is a little over powering, but it's very common to have the unagi sauce and spicy mayo in the mid west restaurants. The salmon ball has rice crisps in it and it gives a very good crunch. It feels like a giant sushi ball without the rice. Given the overwhelming sauce, hence the four stars. The fried chicken is delicious, especially when it's fresh out of the fryer and definitely better than delivered ones read more

Table service in this Maple Grove location. We ordered from the lunch menu: 4 lunch drummies ($10.45) & Lunch Bulgogi Bibimbap ($13.45). We chose the Half & half Drummies (half spicy & half soy garlic)-both were excellent! The pickled white radish was a nice addition to the spiciness of the spicy drummy. The hot bowl bibimbap came out perfectly: rice sizzling on the bottom. The best part of this dish for me is the toasted rice at the bottom of the bowl! The Bulgogi meat was so good that next time, I'm ordering the Bulgogi entree! Only 4 stars since they included chopped iceberg lettuce in the hot bowl (wilted hot iceberg lettuce), kimchi is $3.25, and no ban chan (the usual complimentary side dishes) included. read more

Decided to order online this afternoon and was extremely satisfied by the overall quality. The food itself was delicious and the Korean street corn was outstanding. The service was fast, and the staff was overall pleasant when I had walked in and acknowledged me. I have had Bonchon before and will continue to eat from here, but one of the things I would recommend is if you get a food item such as the tteokbokki to get rice to help get all those last bits of the sauce. The cost overall was a good price for the quality and freshness you get. Highly recommend going here at least once. read more

Order to pickup at 6:15pm. Arrived on time and foods not ready and they are unable to tell me how long my food will be. At 6:50 they told me it will be 10pm minutes. They are very disorganized and front of house has no idea how the kitchen is doing. Been ordering from them for a while and this is the worse I've ever seen it. They should have turn off online ordering if they cannot handle the rush read more

First time at Maple Grove restaurant. We have eaten at others several times. We always like the chicken. This time, we had the bi bim bot. It was good but it had iceberg lettuce in it that was very wilted due to it being a hot entree. I would not put that into an otherwise tasty dish. read more

I have been here many times, and I love it! The service is always fast and friendly. I HIGHLY recommend getting the potstickers as an appetizer, and then the pickled radish on the side. It is a great palate cleanser, especially if you can't handle spicy food (like me). When I went with my mom, we tried the Korean fried chicken and it was so yummy! We ordered 10 pieces, but we probably could have ordered 5 and been okay. They were big pieces, and we ended up taking the rest of them home. If you want authentic Korean food, come here!! read more

Korean fried chicken, and a few more items mixed in. I think the kimchi was made for MN tastes, so not as intense as I'd hope, but still tasty. The staff was helpful and attentive. I had expected counter service, but it was sit down, which was cool. Didn't order it, but the Korean corndog looked like an interesting mashup of midwestern food-on-a-stick and Korean eats. read more

So glad I stopped in at Bonchon. Service was friendly and my order was ready in just a few minutes. The seating area is really quite lovely, clean, and feels very welcoming. I got a small order of the wings with the soy garlic sauce and added on an order of fries. This is typically a lunch special during the week, but I wish it was just offered as a combo regularly. The wings were flavorful and crisp, and the bag of fries was plentiful. I would definitely order from here again. read more

Stopped in after looking for a quick bite to eat and decided to try a new place. We were a little surprised that Bonchon is fully a sit down restaurant, but our experience was great. Very clean store, staff were very nice, and service was actually phenomenal. We had their bibimbap bowl and fried tenders, both were really good. The fried chicken with the soy garlic sauce in particular was a highlight. read more

When we first got here we almost left because our GPS took us to the back door and we thought they weren't open. This place is busy and there were lots of people a little after noon on Sunday. They seated us and got us water quickly. We looked over the menu and decided on potstickers with soy sauce, beef bulgogi, and chicken Korean tacos. The potstickers were very crispy and the sauce was salty and the center was perfectly cooked and tasty. The Korean tacos were messy and spicy but the slaw on top cooled them just enough. The beef bulgogi was well cooked and tasted exactly as it should. The service was good. It was clean with an adequate number of places to sit. At first I thought it was fast food but they came to our table and waited on us. It seems like a really popular place for takeout. read more

The food here is really great especially if you are looking for something different and new to try. I ordered Bonchon to go and it was the first time we've been here. It was on the spendy side but we wanted to try an assortment of menu items! I recommend getting the fried chicken! The regular spice level was spicy and the hot was hot! Haha not for baby mouths. First time also? Try the wing/drumstick combo. We actually preferred the drumsticks... which I was surprised of! The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy inside! Yummy flavor too. For sides we tried the coleslaw and radish. These are to help with the cool down of your mouth from the spice. I preferred the radishes. It added a really nice new level of flavors when eating with the chicken. So good. We also ordered the fried rice and bulgogi. The fried rice was good but not super crave-worthy. The bulgogi was a nice balance of flavor and spice. It has a kick. All and all... it was fun to try a new place but a little spendy for a chain. May get again in the future. read more
