    a hand holding a piece of fried food
    Liz R.

    Bonchon is supposed to be known for great Korean fried-chicken, yet the food I had delivered today would sadly fall into what I considered really bad fried-chicken in general. The boneless wings were the saddest of all as they were truly so dry that many of them were rock hard and didn't have much of any chicken in them...this lead me to believe that they may have been old or sitting under warming lamps, but that's the last thing you expect from a place that prides themself on fried chicken, right? The traditional bone-in wings were slightly better as the soy garlic wings saved the review since they were pretty tasty (even tho fried too hard). The plain bone-in wings were the most bland wings I've ever had in my life (& I've had a lot of wings in my life).... Again not what once expects from an establishment that is all about fried chicken! So, I was disappointed with literally 75% of the chicken ordered (& still hungry because that chicken didn't get eaten).

    Popped in to try their fried rice. Ordered it without meat and headed over to Whole Foods to pick something up. The food was ready within the 10 minutes they projected, and it was still hot when I got home and opened it up. There's a lot of fried rice and it may be better with the meat, but for me it was a 2-3 star experience. I pulled out the sriracha and doused it with the sauce to help out the very subtle flavor.

    We decided it was time to give Bonchon a second chance since they've been open long enough to have worked out the kinks. Using Door Dash, we ordered 1 box of 10 wings and chose cole slaw for our side order. Also, we ordered their fried rice "plain" (meaning we chose not to add any meat or shrimp). Our order arrived in a timely fashion so it was still warm when it arrived. This time, the chicken wings actually had some flavor to them. We ordered the soy garlic wings. While we could taste both the soy and the garlic, it wasn't overpowering. Again, the wings were meaty, moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. The fried rice was okay, if a bit on the dry side. We added some soy sauce which helped. The portion was large so we have leftovers to have with another meal. We definitely will order from them again. Eventually, we'll get around to also dining in, which would be nice as the food would be freshly made and no doubt, even tastier.

    Okay, getting the hang of what to order at Bonchon lol. LUNCH SPECIALS ARE THE WAY TO GO. They have a very generous lunch time window - 11AM to 3PM (M-F, not on weekends or holidays). And of course special lunch pricing. Skip the lines for in-person ordering - their ordering counter is tiny and you'll wait if they're busy. ORDER ONLINE FOR CURBSIDE DELIVERY - easy peasy, no muss no fuss no touch. You don't even have to set up an account to order online (hallelujah!) - just guest order. Order what these guys are known for: their double fried chicken!! We ordered a couple of the 6-piece wings lunch combos which comes with 1 pick-your-own side each. We picked the seasoned fries side for a $1 upcharge (worth it!). Note: we like our fries cooked well-done/crispy - no way to note that on an online order so after you place your order, you have to call over and request well-done fries...only for the diehard amiright?! The 6-piece wings has a mix of wings and drumettes. SUPER GOOD. Even after getting the food home, the glazed coating stayed crispy, very meaty wings and drumettes. We ordered the spicy - SPICY IS MORE FLAVOR PACKED THAN THE SOY GARLIC....though heads-up: SPICY DOES HAVE A KICK TO IT. Seasoned fries were perfectly cooked and deliciously seasoned. And lunch portion size was plenty for a side order (see my pics). Nice touch: the bags of fries were left open at the top so as not to build up condensation and make the fries soggy on the ride home. :) Even for a 9.95 lunch special and all you get for that price (good value imho), as much as I'd love to eat this lunch combo on the daily, my waistline would scream if I did! But Bonchon has definitely been added to my shortlist of favorite lunch options based on taste, quality, and price/value!

    Finally got a chance to try Bonchon. We got bone in wings (half & half sauce), boneless wings (half & half sauce), and fries. The food smelled so good and we couldn't wait to eat it. I personally won't be getting the spicy version moving forward, but everything was hot and tasted amazing. Fries were nice and crispy and they didn't skimp on the portion. We're making it another go to spot.

    I did it for science.

    I eat a lot of Korean Fried Chicken. Yes, my screenshot is me ordering for myself. Leftovers crisp up beautifully in a convention oven or air fryer. This Bonchon is one of my favorite places to order from. Here's why: This Bonchon vs. Other Bonchons [1] This Bonchon has outdoor seating around the corner, between the MOD Pizza and Noodles & Co. [2] This Bonchon, for an unknown reason, has more consistently-sized chicken. [3] This Bonchon, for an unknown reason, has bigger drumsticks. Wings are still the same size. [4] This Bonchon usually tosses in a little extra with my large orders. This instantly makes my day better. [5] This Bonchon has been more consistent in quality. Other Bonchons, especially Annandale, sometimes overcook the chicken. [6] Fairfax Bonchon is the only other Bonchon that I consider equally good, but they are unfortunately not operating at all during COVID. This Bonchon vs. Chi Mc Vienna [1] The food quality is about equal, which is a good thing because Chi Mc Vienna is awesome, too. [2] Bonchon is a way better deal if you order large. Chi Mc is $32 for a 24-piece large, Bonchon is $37 for a 30-piece large. [3] Bonchon has nutrition facts posted. Chi Mc does not. I've ordered delivery and pickup and have been pleased every time. There are occasionally "off-days": I recently got a batch where I think the batter had too much gluten formation, producing a somewhat chewier-than-usual-skin. The spice level can fluctuate a bit. But they are usually on their game. The oil temperature is always right: I have never gotten a greasy batch. Anyways, here's the winning order if you can't decide what to do for dinner: Wings (the real kind with bones, not the little white meat lies), half-and-half, with a side of pickled radish. Pair with a light Japanese pilsner or wheat beer.

    I recently moved back to the NoVa after a few years overseas and was looking forward to going back…read moreto Cheng's since it always had really excellent and authentic Szechuan. Sadly, I found out even before ordering that its original owner Louis Cheng recently retired and sold the restaurant to new ownership. The food was so-so but it was definitely not as good as I remember - the boiled fish in was definitely different versus what it was previously. Instead of spicy and fragrant peppercorns in oil, it was a simple sauce and cornstarch, very little heat and pretty generic. The other dishes didn't have the fiery wok taste that they used to and it felt more like an average Chinese food restaurant versus one that's more authentically Szechuan. Not bad food by any means, but less spice and more generic. Maybe it's a decision by new management to make it more mass appealing, but I was sad that it was sold and doesn't feel like the same place.

The portions are incredibly generous, and every dish we tried was delicious. The drunken noodles were packed with flavor, the fried rice was perfectly cooked, the Tso's chicken was excellent, and the steamed fish was fresh and beautifully prepared. The highlight of the meal was the spectacular tableside Flambé dessert--it was both delicious and a fun experience. The service was exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The owners were also warm and welcoming, adding to the wonderful dining experience. And don't skip the beer--it was fantastic! Great food, generous portions, outstanding hospitality, and excellent value. We'll definitely be back.

Love the nachos with crab and shrimp. The pickled jalapeños set the entire nacho off! The French fries are seriously some of the best I have had! So hot and crunchy! Still love the tartar sauce with a slight hint of bay seasoning! I will be back....

    S T I L L our Top Restaurant…read more We started dining at PassionFish Reston circa 2012. Over the years we dined there hundreds of times. In fact we have 18,000 loyalty points. We had not been to PassionFish Reston since December 2020 because we moved to a southern state. We finally visited our family and friends in the DMV and celebrated two fabulous dinners and one happy hour after a six-year hiatus. Well PassionFish was still top shelf, sterling caliber with Chef Chris Clime as the new owner. Thank goodness because after a long gap in enjoying the restaurant, staff, and delicious seafood cuisine - it still is the best. We had two mouth watering dinner with family and friends while visiting town. We enjoyed the always terrific Blackened Swordfish, Halibut, and the most spectacular Whole Crispy Rockfish entree. Our deserts were the Key Lime Pie with Pineapple Sorbet and the Chocolate Dome with Cotton Candy volcano eruption - SUPERB all were. It was so wonderful to see staff members whom we remembered still working the the restaurant. Damien Beard, the manager, was equally as welcoming to see us again after six-years. PassionFish Reston could not be in better hands and we cannot wait to celebrate again with the staff. Cheers.
