I love this place! In July we chose to visit for my birthday fix of wings & pork belly Bao buns. Unfortunately, the pork belly skin was so hard it was inedible. Otherwise, I do plan to continue my wing fix with y'all... but I do not recommend the pork belly read more

Bonchon Mechanicsville - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

BonChon used to be fantastic - I think I gave them a 4 or 5 star review a few years ago. Something very horrible has happened - the wings were crazy overcooked, the soy garlic sauce was terrible - pretty much straight soy sauce, so they were salty, the potstickers were sub-par. Honestly, we used to really like coming here but we will never come back. And, less important but still disappointing, they could not serve drinks from their bar because they didn't have a manager on duty. So sad to see a good place f read more

Bonchon Mechanicsville - Over cooked, too salty, and the oil they were cooked in was bad. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

The food is excellent, especially the wings, but the staff is chaotic; one guy is frantically running around looking like a sim on fire, while the "trainer" is ineffective and stale attitude... All three of the guys were just awful. Just get take out from here, you'll thank me later read more

I've typically enjoyed my experiences with this franchise. The wing flavors are unmatched. However, I was disappointed in my last experience because I decided to purchase a drink from the bar. I asked for a bar menu and was informed one does not exist. I'm experience in ordering so I asked for a Long Island and a shot of patron thinking little of it. Only to presenting with a $43 bill for the drinks. Astonished the employee informed my tequila is protected behind glass in the liquor store so they charge more. Is this justified you choose. Myself, I'll be choosing another restaurant with clear and transparent policies. read more

I don't know why they changed. They used to be best wings. Now they are overly salty and so small, half the size they used to be. You can get better wings and cheaper anywhere. read more

They aren't terrible,i visited a few times when I was craving Korean chicken until CM chicken came along. Bonchon is cute and they have some good side item menu options but overall I think they are very overpriced. The staff are nice so that's a plus. read more

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT eat here. Prices are ridiculous, portions are ridiculously tiny. Got the tteokbukki with steamed rice, there was a piece of plastic in my food that I very easily could have chocked on. Upon informing the staff, was ridiculed with them claiming it was "melted rice", news flash rice doesn't melt. on top of everything we were not offered sort of compensation. Lost a customer for life. What a f***ing joke of a restaurant. Would leave 0 stars if I could. read more

Service is bland. Chicken strips are bland and just not good anymore. Will not visit again for chicken. Will give one more try for bulgogi fried rice. read more

Food was good. Got the soy garlic boneless lunch combo with french fries. Service was very good and our waitress was very nice. Wings could use extra sauce so would recommend asking for a cup of extra (I didn't think to until after) but sauce was very good in general! Fries are extra which is a change to the past but still good! read more

Bonchon Mechanicsville - Lunch Specials - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

Let me say a restaurant with integrity goes a long way! I did a online order and picked the wrong location. Got to the Mechanicsville location and they said I didn't order anything. I was a little confused. So I pulled up my order to show them I was right and they were wrong!!! She was nice enough to show me I ordered from the midlothian location! Ok. My bad. I'm sorry. Sad face. Ordered same lunch and called midlothian store and told them to enjoy my lunch that I paid for. Had my lunch. Excellent. Bulgogi. Looked in my bank and they credited me for the lunch I ordered from wrong location! I didn't ask. They just did. That makes me a life long customer. Went back next day for chicken katsu. Again. Excellent. Going to try wings next. They also apparently have a happy hour! Going to add that to my things to do also. read more

If you want to quickly satisfy your craving for crunchy sticky Korean chicken wings, bulgogi or tteokbokki this is the place to go. Food is just ok, nothing spectacular. This is to be expected from a chain fast food type restaurant. If you want homestyle moms and pops authentic Korean cuisine I would go some place else. The seasonal summer Korean bbq sauce wings had a hint of spice which was better than the mild soy garlic ones. The tteokbokkki was a bit spicy Our server was attentive, it wasn't busy for dine in on a weekday evening. Most patrons did to-go order pick ups. The ambiance of the restaurant is more of a casual fast food type vibe. read more

First time eating at this bonchon. Ordered for delivery during COVID pandemic. Got half sweet crunch half hot wings and a side of rice. Delivery didn't take too long, about 30-40 minutes. My order seemed fresh & still warm when it got to me. First time trying the sweet crunch wings and they're so good! Much crunchier than the regular wings, but not spicy. Glad I got 1/2 and 1/2 to savor the flavor of both. read more

Bonchon Mechanicsville - Signature Fried Chicken Wings & Steamed Rice - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

This was my first Bonchon experience and it was really good! The "spicy" style is actually hot, in a good way, not too spicy. The pork potstickers were good as well, nice and crispy. We ordered takeout and it was ready quickly in 15 min. The staff was friendly as well. read more

I ordered through Uber eats the other day for lunch and wanted to try somewhere new, so I finally bit the bullet and went with bonchon. Everyone has always recommended them to me but I've just never gone. I'm so glad I tried them because they were delicious! The soy garlic wings came recommended by everyone and they did not disappoint. The boneless wings were so moist and had the perfect amount of breading to chicken. I upgraded the side to the seasoned fries. They arrived in a bag with a lot of seasoning. I shook it up to mix everything up evenly. They were really good and it wasn't too much on there even though it looked like a lot. I also added on the takoyaki. They're these dough ball octopus dumplings with two different sauces. They were really interesting and good. Everything was prepared really quickly which allowed them to be delivered very quickly. I was really impressed. I've never been inside so I don't know how the restaurant looks or is. When I reheated the food the next day, it was just as deliciius. I'd definitely come back soon. I've got my eye on so many things! read more

That friggin chicken is the Devil. I'm so stuffed I'm in pain. I purchased, the 10 piece Korean wings, 5 garlic and 5 spicy. I really dislike drumsticks, but I realized today that Damn they're good, or it might just be Bonchon. I have not eaten from Bonchon in a minute, and especially after they closed the location closest to me. I had some Korean food not long ago, and It left me blehhh. It might be these wings that made me a drumette believer. The flat pieces were flavorful and spicy as all heck, but a little on the dry side. The drumetts we're juicy and the spice was just right. I'm laying in bed stuffed, and thinking about my next bite. I was going to remove a star because dude forgot my dipping sauce, and the flat pieces were a little dry. However, everyone was pleasant and the drumetts helped them redeem themselves. Go check them out! If you can't handle spicy, get the garlic, it was perfect! Enjoy!! read more

Bonchon Mechanicsville - Korean Chicken - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

Visited for lunch ! Atmosphere was nice and quiet, . my server was really nice and helpful . Thanks to tiktok I ordered the dumplings , pork buns , house fried rice, seasoned fries and my son ordered soy garlic chicken wings . Dumplings was good , pork buns was soft but good , the fried rice was slightly sweet but good and the fries was okay . The reason I have the restaurant a three was because it all tastes the same . It seems like the soy garlic was seasoned with everything I ordered except the fries . The flavor is strong and can be over powering . It was a bit much after a while . But still a decent place . read more

Ordered ahead so the food would be ready when I got there, when I arrived they said they don't start wings until you arrive, waited out in my car for 15 minutes while they cooked the wings, so that they save a few bucks when people don't show up, then the wings were hot and the rest of the food was cold... Maybe prioritize my food being hot and ready when I get there instead of saving a a few dollars when people don't show up? Seems kind of selfish and rude and I don't really want to pay for this cold food to save them money. read more

Went here during covid then my card was charged for 6 $50 Bon Chon gift cards out of CA. Never got my money back from debit card company because they said it wasn't suspicious. All withing a minute or two of each other. Shady staff read more

When this place first opened, wings came with a side of rice and ranch. Prices have continued to go up at this location but rice and ranch is no longer included, even with the price increases its now additional $.... Price gouging at its finest. I used to eat here all the time, not anymore. read more

The host guy with black hair is awesome! He goes around making sure everyone is good, cleans, and does everything he can to help. Our waitress was nice too. The food is good too! The seasoned fries are amazing. They aren't just seasoned on the top but throughout the basket of fries. So yummy 10/10 recommend read more

Went here today with my daughter and youngest son. They both had wings and drums, spicy, and really enjoyed them. We shared the popcorn shrimp appetizer and all agreed it was tasty. I had the Bibimbap with soy garlic chicken and thought it was tasty, but the chicken was a little dry. I love the bowl it comes in, keeps the food hot forever! Maybe that effects the chicken? Who knows. Our waiter was very friendly and pleasant. Combined opinion - 5 Stars! read more

first time dining in cause I usually order take out. I tried their bowl on a cold day and it was so comforting. the fresh vegetables over steaming rice was delicious and the shrimp dumplings were mouth watering. loved every second and the waiter was very friendly and attentive. read more

This was a pick up by me. The BonChon website needs some tweaking, because it lost my items in cart about 4 different times in the process of checking out. The most frustrating over complicated Food Website I've encountered. I imagine less determined customers like myself, just went on to Italian food or some other take out site. The food was hot , but I wasn't able to add the complimentary sauces (2) and when I asked about putting in the Ranch dressings the Manager said the dishes had sauce on them. Never argue with the Customer Manager. I didn't want anything for free , they were complimentary if the Website wasn't like an IRS itemization form. Food is good , but for the money , you don't get much. read more

Bonchon is one of my favorite Korean/ Asian spots in the central Virginia area. The vibe of the restaurant is one like no other. Its dim lights and comfortable seating started us out with an amazing vibe at the beginning of our trip to Bonchon. The service did seem a little slow, it took the waiter a little while to get to us, but it looked like he was serving every table by himself and he was working very hard. He was a super nice guy and tried his best. I won't take any points off for that, because there's nothing they can do if they are short staffed. All of this food took 10 minutes to come out which was felt super quick. As for the taste of the food, we were blown away. The popcorn shrimp had the perfect ratio of breading to shrimp. The spicy mayo it came with was not overwhelmingly spicy but added a really nice complimentary flavor to the shrimp. The shrimp was good quality and the serving was generous as well. They were also hot in temperature which is nice to see that we weren't served cold food. The potstickers were phenomenal! They were crispy on the edges which is something that a lot of Asian places miss on. They were then filled with a soft pork filling which was great in quality. The soy garlic sauce on top, gave it a nice tang and added some flavor as well. As for the wings, they were absolutely incredible. The double fried monstrous drumsticks were the best in my opinion. The quality of the meat was amazing, it offered a juicy and fall off the bone quality of meat. The wings were great as well, I think they were a lot crunchier because of how small they were, but they still had a great amount of meat on them. The white rice it came with was typical white rice. I really enjoyed my experience at Bonchon. I wish it was a little more affordable, but for all the food you get and the quality, I think it is well worth it. This fed my girlfriend and I and we were both pleased with Bonchon. I highly recommend this spot to anyone who either hasn't tried Korean bbq or anyone looking for a change of pace in their Asian food rotation! read more

* Tip: if you check in on Facebook, you get 2 free wings with your order. You can do this once per person. So if you go with a group 4, you can get a total of 8 free wings. Make sure to factor this in before you place your order.* Food was fine. The wings were especially crunchy at this location, which I liked but others may not. The soy garlic wings were also saltier than normal. Tried their Sweet Crunch wings. Those were really sweet in a weird way. Gave me a stomachache after a few bites--luckily I spent my free wings on that flavor. Didn't enjoy the extra charge on my tab for the partial refill of radish. I don't usually get charged for that in other locations. read more

This is the worst BONCHON I have ever eaten! First all I was mad about my fries being in a paper bag. But the employee assured me it was food safe. Then I get home to eat them and they are coated with sauce. And they were over cooked. They looked and tasted old.I have never had Bonchon wings with wet sauce on it. The flavor is normally in the crust. The wings are smaller than buffaloes wild wings. This will be my last time eating there. And they are entirely too expensive. I will add a positive- the lady who checked me out remained nice even after I complained about the paper bag. read more

Food was pretty quick out. Meals were tasty, servers were pretty friendly but not really pitching their main product ( the female server called the chicken overrated). Wasn't too pricy. The floors, surrounding tables (only four tables were sat and no one was cleaning the vacated tables from previous guests) and walls were pretty dirty. My daughter said the bathroom was too. read more

Food wasn't bad. They typically don't do spicy on some items so they are heavy on the spices. Seating is limited due social distancing. read more
