    10 piece Wings
    Joshelyn ..

    Bonchon!!!! I was THRILLED when I saw this place open since I've only experienced them whenever I visited DC! And per the usual, I wasn't disappointed! I ordered the 10 wings with an order of Veggie Fried Rice. I was able to split the flavors of wings: Yangnyeom and regular. Yangnyeom is similar to a Thai Chili flavor in case anyone was wondering and it's delicious! Now back the food! My food was hot, flavorful and I had enough for seconds even after sharing. My chicken was juicy and crunchy how I like it, and the right amount of sauce not overpowering the chicken. The restaurant is clean with separate menus to order aside from ordering at the counter which helps in crowded situations. I avoided the lunch hour rush around 2pm since I was shopping at the grocery store adjacent to the restaurant. The service was great! The young lady at the counter was amazing and we had a nice conversation while I waited for my food which wasn't long, about ten minutes. The price isn't like typical fast food or takeout but it's worth it! I'll be back more than I want to admit and I'm glad to hear and see they'll be popping up around the city.

    Fried rice
    Erica E.

    I've wanted to try Bonchon for such a long time, I'm glad that they're finally here. After contemplating about what we'd have for takeout one night, my partner suggested that we finally try Bonchon after talking about it weeks prior. Korean fried chicken? You don't need to ask me twice. We ordered online and went with the K-Meal for 2-4 as it included 12 wings + 6 boneless and 2 sides. For our flavors we opted for spicy and Korean BBQ and cheese corn + fried rice for our sides, adding in an order of coleslaw after I heard it was good. Pickup was pretty seamless and the food was hot when we got it. They tossed in an extra side of corn, thanks for that! The corn was delicious, it may have been the only item that wasn't piping hot in our bag which resulted in me microwaving them to melt the cheese, but they were so good. The coleslaw left much to be desired lol. The fried rice was perfect! Let me warn you - the spicy flavor is SPICY. I was shocked at how alarmed I was. I mean, I love spice. I will throw jalapenos on anything and love a kick as long as it doesn't interfere with flavor. But baby, that spice was kicking my butt! It was definitely delicious though, I will not hide that. The Korean BBQ was tasty as well, I was just bummed that the chicken was really soggy. Was that because of the sauce + breading not being a match or what - we will definitely be going with the original fried chicken going forward because I missed that crunch. I'll also grab some kimchi and radishes next time, I can't believe I didn't try them on my first visit but they're at the top of my list.

    Korean Tacos
    Courtney M.

    While on my quest for food, though I was originally looking for tacos, Bonchon caught my eye. I've really been on a kick for Korean food lately, both authentic and fusion food. I am particularly a fan of bulgogi and noticed they had bulgogi tacos so I decided to give it a try! The best of both worlds right? The tacos were a bit underwhelming. It wasn't much flavor, which was surprising since some of the ingredients included bulgogi beef, spicy mayo and ranch. I thought it would be packed with flavor, but it just wasn't. There was not very much meat on the tacos though you pay extra for bulgogi. I felt like the lettuce and mayo (which wasn't spicy at all) overpowered everything. They do have other things. If I were to come Back again, I'd probably get the Korean Fried chicken. Service was fine, no issues. You can place your order at the counter or kiosk. I chose the kiosk and ordered to-go. It was easy and my food came out fairly quick. If you're someone who likes to customize or change things (like preferring your sauce on the side rather than on your food), order at the counter because there's not really a way to enter that using the kiosk. Also, I love that they give reusable storage containers to-go orders! I am not sure if I'd go again, but it wasn't horrible. Check them out, but maybe just choose a different dish.

    I was excited when I found out Smyrna was getting a Bonchon. I first tried Bonchon in D.C., and I only knew of one other location, which was in Fayetteville. It's great to see more locations popping up in Georgia. Finally, Bonchon opened in Smyrna, and I went on last Monday. I ordered a 6-piece wing--half soy garlic, half yangyeom. The cashier was super friendly and helpful. Since the wings are made fresh, it took a little while to get my food. I ordered takeout, but there's plenty of seating inside and some outside too. The price was a bit steep for just six wings and no real side, though. All chicken entrees come with a small complimentary pickle radish or coleslaw, but I didn't want either. When I finally ate, I enjoyed it, but I still felt a little hungry. So next time, I'll go for the next size up. Overall, it's a great addition to the area, and I'm looking forward to going back.

    Service was fast when ordering to go. Food tastes good, but not as good as the Alpharetta location. This is their grand opening, so maybe that's the reason. This isn't the second time where a company is amazing in Duluth, but is mid when you serve it in Atlanta. Usually when I go to BonChon in Alpharetta, these drumsticks fill the box more and are larger. These drums look lonely in this box. The crispiness and flavor was there, but the chicken itself seemed a bit dry and not as juicy. The street corn I got seemed like a single scoop in a two scoop Togo container 4oz food service container. This fit in the Coleslaw appetizer that was roughly 2oz, so I might have your team look at what this container is supposed to filled to. Seems like you're trying to cut corners here and considering this is $4.99 in this day and age, shame. When I get this at other locations, it's usually filled to the top of a paper branded cup leaving half an inch from the top. Fried Rice with Spicey Chicken was good. Definitely spicy and I had to eat it with patience. Overall, the location is on the corner of the east west connector in Smyrna, across the street of Publix. It's easy to get in and out of that parking lot and there is plenty of parking. The location sports an outdoor seating which was not setup today, I gather because it's kind of cold and they didn't have any outdoor heaters. Inside, the place is freshly setup and clean. Well lit and the people seem friendly. I'll keep an eye on this location. Hopefully it will improve in time. Probably need to come back once they are in business for some time. Good luck!

    House Fried Rice with pork belly
    Melenda M.

    A friend of mine told me about this restaurant. I was excited to go. We ordered 6 wings and 2 drumsticks for 17 dollars. That's my first issue. My husband ordered a dish with glass noodles and beef. I ordered fried rice with pork belly. For these prices... the servings should be more. The chicken is crunchy but both the crispy and soy/ garlic were too salty. We waited 27 minutes for our food to come out. I probably would not come back.

    Had the BEST meal today at Bonchon! I've never tried Korean fried chicken and it did not disappoint. I decided to be a fatty (cause who starts a New Years diet on a weekend?!?) I got the Bao Buns, Potstickers, Korean Street corn, and the Japchae.... Those glass noodles are TO DIE

    Spicy

    I stumbled upon this restaurant today and it was not bad at all. I ordered a 10 piece soy and garlic and spicy with coleslaw. I look forward to coming back to try a few other dishes as well. The staff was very friendly and professional. I love the self ordering kiosk as well so I dont feel forced to rush.

    Yeah! Bonchon in Smyrna is finally open! Me and the picky 'lil girl shared a small mixed chicken combo (2 legs and 4 wings) half soy garlic and have crunch with one side and a drink. Perfect snack! Staff super helpful and patient. Menu is extensive with traditional Korean options as well...next time! Casual ordering and then find a seat.

    Sunday Lunch, came here for Korean fried chicken and it did not disappoint. 1. Ambiance was very modern and clean, restroom was clean with nice accommodations needs. 2. Service was outstanding from when we entered, questions were answered with a great smile, she even brought us out our meal to our table since we were dining in. 3. Ordered 6pc Soy garlic mixed with Spicy for that tangy spicy taste which was upon request and they delivered!! 12.99 with coleslaw, perhaps I tasted a bit of wine/vinegar in it, not the best and hope they will adjust the taste of it. Making it a combo with fries and a drink for an extra 4.99? I suppose. I mean with 6pc wings, slaw, fries and a drink for nearly $18 plus tip may be a bit overwhelming for us middle class but considering it's Smyrna/the area everything is expensive nowadays. 4. Would I return? Yes.

    Kimchi

    The Bulgogi Bowl- I ordered it without scallions and mushrooms. The plate came loaded with more onions than meat . The meat wasn't bad but wasn't great either. The Kimchi- had a bland taste to it, no flavor at all. The Bibimbap- meat was dry and had no flavor to it. When I went to the front and asked for Bulgogi sauce or something for the meat , the girl laughed like I said something stupid. They did have soy sauce though. The tap water had a taste of metal in it. I know this plane just opened but they have a lot of work to do.

    5/5 Yakitori Janbeli…read moreI was in town for a business trip and decided to give Yakitori Janbeli a try after seeing all the glowing online reviews and the Food Network hype. I stopped by on a Tuesday evening around 8 PM, placed a call-in order, and it was ready in about 20 minutes--super convenient! I went with the fried rice and the Korean-style fried chicken. The place has a nice moderate-sized space with pleasant outdoor seating, and the staff was really friendly when I picked up my order. Once I got back and dug in, it was clear they use super fresh ingredients, and everything tasted like it was made to order. The fried rice had nice, layered flavors, and the chicken had a clean, crisp bite with a tasty sauce drizzled on top. Honestly, I couldn't quite see what all the major hype was about, but it was still a solid, good-quality meal with great presentation. That said, given the other more affordable options in the area with better portions, I probably wouldn't go back on my next visit. Would recommend if you're looking for fresh, quality ingredients in a convenient spot!

I shared the Karaage and Korean fried chicken with my friends and didn't find either to be something I would reorder, however I will say that my friends all spoke highly of the Korean fried chicken. For my main, I had the Wagyu Maki and it didn't live up to the expectations or price at all. We finished off with the mochi which was very tasty. I'll caveat this all with adding my friends who had the ramen and fried rice enjoyed their meals a lot more than mine. This could be a result of just ordering better items or just having a one-off bad experience myself. Overall, I think if you're avoiding seafood then Yakitori Jinbei might not be the best place to try in my personal experience.

Poor Calvin's looked so interesting and when I sent it to my colleague, they were very interested. We took a quick Lyft ride from the conference center. What a cute restaurant! It's cozy and the space is utilized so efficiently. The staff were so warm and welcoming as well as attentive. Our lovely waitress provided vivid descriptions of each of the dishes that we either asked about or ordered, which made us even more excited to receive our meal! We started with the beignets (without the crab dip; it was supplemented with pimento cheese). They were savory and delicious, with I think pecorino cheese and balsamic glaze. It came with 4 generously sized beignets and we big had to stop after one to leave room for our meal! For entrees, my colleague got the seafood curry and I got the drunken noodles with tofu. Both of these dishes were very generous portions and quite spicy! The tofu in the drunken noodles had a very light (tempura?) batter with a sort of Chinese salt and pepper seasoning. My colleague's seafood curry came with a HUGE lobster tail, lots of mussels and other seafood plus a side of green (!) rice. Everything was so good. We had leftovers to take with us to the hotel. Highly recommend checking out Poor Calvin's if you get the chance!

It's essentially a mini indoor market with multiple food spots, plenty of seating scattered throughout, and even some solid outdoor seating if the weather cooperates. I came in with one mission: Thai food. No distractions. I made a beeline straight to 26 Thai Kitchen and placed my order solo at one of their convenient digital kiosks, quick, simple, and no waiting in line. For lunch, I went with the Pad Thai Shrimp, loaded up with onions, broccoli, peanuts, and sprouts, and cranked the heat up to Thai hot. No regrets. The food came out fast, five minutes maybe less, and it was piping hot, steam rolling off every bite. The dish delivered, good flavor, solid heat, and exactly what I was hoping for. Now, one thing worth mentioning, it's a bit on the pricey side for what you're getting, especially in a setup like this. And I'll be honest, being prompted for a tip felt a little out of place. When you're ordering from a digital kiosk and picking up your own food, it's hard to see where that extra charge fits in. For me, tipping makes sense when there's actual table service involved. Overall, the venue itself is a pretty cool concept with a lot of variety under one roof, but if you're locked in on Thai like I was, 26 Thai Kitchen is still worth a stop for a dish or two, just go in knowing what to expect.
