love it, would wish it looked a little bigger but the flavor is all there and quality

Poor service. The vegetables in my rice bowl appeared spoiled, but the staff refused to replace them. They also did not provide a spoon with my meal. Very disappointing experience. The ambiance was nice, but the overall experience was disappointing. read more

Bonchon Tempe - Bulgogi Bibbimbap - Chicken Wings Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I usually eat here at least once a year. And All the times in the past and this time, the taste and quality is the same, I love that they're consistent. Came in Saturday night but at the time it was pretty empty, just my boyfriend and I , and 2 other customers. However, we waited 1 hr since we came in and we only had 1 order of the chicken (15 pieces), so the wait was veryyyy long for that small quantity. However, once the food came out - it was very good! We got the Combo Medium size with drumstick & wings - Spicy and Soy garlic, with radish as the side. The chicken overall was steaming hot, which I love. The skin outside was very crispy, which is why I love Bonchon for and that's what makes Bonchon stand out from other places. The Spicy was delicious - good kick with a mix of some sweet and savory sauce. I love the sauce Soy Garlic was very good as well with the savory and soy flavor. Each bite is perfect as you taste the crunchiness from the skin, then the sauce oozes out, and the chicken meat is cooked well for all pieces. Service was good and the place was clean! read more

The restaurant was almost empty when we walked in. There were 15 people waiting in the lobby for takeout orders with one lady waiting as long as 45 minutes. When the manager came out, he said "we can't take dine in right now we're short staffed." I have been there on three different occasions and been told that. Beyond frustrating and corporate should know about this. read more

ordered a Buldak bowl and it was honestly terrible. The chicken tasted boiled, rubbery, and completely flavorless. There were literally three rice cakes in the entire bowl and an absurd amount of thick-sliced onions. The dish looked sad and tasted even worse. This was nothing like buldak--just a weird, unpleasant mess. read more

This place has been on my radar for a while. So while we were in the area we decided to try it. I was so excited to try it. We were quickly seated and things started to look a little off. For one, a worker was at one of the tables looking like a nurse with gloves and other restaurant bags of food at the table. She was helping an older woman eat and care for her. Anyway, on to the food. We ordered the chicken, 2 different flavors. We also started with the bulgogi fries and bao buns. The fries looked weird when it came. The cheese wasn't melted like we had thought but maybe that's just how it's served? The flavor was ok but not something I'd ever order again. The bao buns were also just ok. The meat to bun ratio is off. Please add more meat so we're getting more of the flavors rather than just the bun. Also, it was a little wet and mushy. The chicken is where it's at. Great flavor and you can't go wrong. If we stuck with just the chicken, this would've been a five star review. Unfortunately, we'd probably not stop here again because there are wayy too many great restaurants out there. read more

Came into Bonchon, right near our house for a quick dinner at the bar. I had the tofu, fried, Bibimbap and my husband had the five drumsticks. With a couple of beers to wash it down. Great food! I asked for one additional sauce for my dish as it was a little light on seasoning. I should've only used half of the next one. It became very spicy with two. So just be warned. If you like your dishes, very spicy ask for two sauces, if you can finish it. All in all great dish, great service. Come out and enjoy some Korean food. read more

JOSH is the man!!! He was awesome from start to end. We walked in for lunch, and we were seated right away. I was excited to find this Bonchon location in Tempe, which is about 8 minutes from the Lexus dealership in Chandler. After some negotiations at the dealership, of course we got hangered. Thanks to my trusty Yelp app for steering us in the right direction! We got 2 Combo Lunch Specials, which come with 8 wings. We chose Soy Garlic and Korean BBQ for the sauces. For our sides, we got the Pickled Radish (because it's a sin NOT to, lol!) and the Seasoned Fries, which is an extra $2, but worth it! The Japchae was a must-have, so we ordered one to eat and another to-go for later. In comparison to other locations, it was a little greasy, but overall, had that signature Bonchon flavor. Everything was delicious! The chicken was really crispy on the outside and cooked thoroughly on the inside. No pink middles here! I always have to get the radish because it complements the chicken so well, especially the KBBQ since it had a slight kick to it. I asked Josh for extra, and he came through! I appreciate that awesome service! We were glad to have come at the right time. It was a Tuesday and not busy at all for lunch. The restaurant is clean and bright. There's a parking lot right outside, and the prices are competitive. I would definitely come back here and highly recommend it if you're craving some amazing, CRISPY, and FLAVORFUL chicken cooked perfectly! If you see Josh, tell him I said wassup & I'll be back sooner or later! ;) read more

My cousin brought dinner and I had never heard of this place so I was intrigued when she walked through the door with it. She got fried rice and soy Ginger wings. The rice was good, a typically chain fried rice. It kinda gave me Trader Joe's fried rice vibes but a little bit better. The chicken was cooked well, perfectly crispy and sauced. The sauce was a little on the salty side but it was still good. I didn't pick up the food or go into the restaurant so I have no feedback on service or ambiance. read more

Waited almost 20 min and left. Wasn't very busy to be waiting that long and there's no AC just fan running. 110 degree weather plus hot food not a good combo to not have AC running. My guess from the other reviews this is a normal occurrence. At minimum wish we could have at least got ice water. read more

This place used to be great. I used to recommend it all the time. But evet since it was sold both the service and the food have suffered. Tonight we tried to go in at 830 but were told that dine in ended at 8pm, when the posted time says 9pm. Party of 2. One other table occupied. The guy, "Lucky", was pretty smug. ​ read more

While still a great stop for some great food I felt a lot of our items were over cooked this time. My bao buns while flavorful the meat could've been cooked a tad less. It was a bit tough to chew. The potstickers were amazing with half and half of the sauces. My bibimbap spicy and delicious. Service was good and Amy delay was addressed. Vibe is pretty basic, but welcoming and enjoyable. Prices fair for the amount of food you receive. read more

It isn't my first time eating Bonchon but it was my first time eating at this location. Sooo happy my boyfriend took me here because it was an orgasm in my mouth! We ordered the half & half which are the spicy and soy garlic. BOTH ARE CRISPY AND PACKED WITH FLAVORRRR Service was A1! Employees worked diligently among each other, also attentive and friendly staff. As for the ambiance - clean settings, nice music and family friendly. We'll most definitely come back for the great wings and awesome service :) read more

The food is delicious. I usually go for the wings. All the flavors are good. Only thing is that it's on the pricier side.

I have been here a 5 times, and twice, they forgot to put my order in, so we had to wait even longer for our order. My last visit, the General Manager stopped by to tell us that our order wasn't placed, and she apologized and offered a free drink while we waited. I appreciate the candor and how the general manager handled the situation. I like the food here. Whenever I am in the mood for fried chicken, this place is always suggested. I recommend the pineapple flavor happy day soju with your meal. read more

I am literally obsessed with this place. The CRUNCH and flavor is insane. I have been here about 10 times and was not disappointed once. The flavor of the wings and tenders is always there. I really enjoy the spicy and soy or sweet because you get the heat and sweet all in one meal. The French fries are nice and crispy and seasoned and their ranch is incredible. I'm drooling writing this because I love the ranch so much. I have also had the fried pickles, YUM. The tacos with bulgogi or chicken or pork belly and absolutely delicious. EVERYTHING! To drink I always get a refreshing peach tea to wash it all down. Love you bon chon. read more

Best darn chicken sandwich I have even eaten. I had the garlic and soy sauce version (there are three versions) and it came with a special cole slaw on top and a wonderful sauce and side of excellent fries.

We drove 40min to pick up and 40min back home (we live in Glendale) and honestly very disappointed with the end result. We ordered the bibimbap seafood, fried rice, street corn and Tteokbokki. Everything was fine except the fried rice and bibimbap. The rice was extremely undercooked to the point of it almost being crunchy. Currently looking up ways to soften it up instead of tossing these 2 dishes in the trash read more

Ordered for pickup...cashier was extremely nice and offered water while I waited. I ordered the drumsticks with ginger and soy sauce and cole slaw. I also had a taste of their steamed shrimp dumplings. They were delicious! I actually liked the chicken better leftover from the day before. The drumsticks were sticky and crispy (requested). The Cole slaw was good but I didn't feel I had a proper serving size due to the fact that the container was really empty! Prices are reasonable. Restaurant was clean and has a bar area with different Korean beverages. Decor was nice! read more

Bonchon is one of the most authentic Korean fried chicken spots and delivers a great product. It's got more than just wings but a lot of various Korean dishes like Bimibap, baos, and japchae. The star of the show is the wings for sure and you must try out the soy garlic wings. Korean fried chicken is by far the best type of fried chicken that has an amazing crunch with amazing flavors too. Love this place but do wish they had the kimchi cold slaw still. That was so tasty but still its a great place for KFC read more

Bonchon is a Korean / Asian Fusion restaurant offering a variety of dishes. It's a sit down restaurant, but it was obvious they do a ton of take out, as well. The place runs like a well- oiled machine. The Hostess was at the ready to seat Guests. The Server arrived soon after. When he wasn't available, someone else was there as a backup. I couldn't ask for friendlier or faster service (more later). The Shrimp Shumai appetizer / starter was just ok. You can order it steamed or fried. Since I've never had them fried before, I thought this was a good opportunity to explore. It came with eight pieces, though each piece was smaller than what I've had at competitor restaurants. The exterior seemed a bit overcooked. That's my impression, given I've never had a fried version before. The interior had the consistency of mashed potatoes; something I didn't expect. There was no discernible shrimp flavor. It was served with a side of honey mustard (or similar tasting) sauce for dipping. I was able to scratch the fried Shumai itch, but I doubt I'd order it again. For the main course, the Signature Fried Chicken was especially good. The Small Combo comes with 6 wings and 3 drums. What I expected was 3 wing flats and 3 wing drums. But! ... it actually included 3 wing flats, 3 wing drums and 3 full size drumsticks. Yup, that's nine pieces total and the "Small" is plenty large for sharing. Better yet, they were tasty! All pieces were meaty and juicy with a light, crispy batter. I ordered mine with the Soy Garlic sauce which had just enough flavor without being overpowering. You can get spicy sauce or split the sauces if you prefer. Signature Chicken dishes come with a complimentary side of pickled radish or coleslaw. My coleslaw was cool and crisp; not dripping in mayo (or buttermilk) which can make it soggy. As mentioned, the service was fast. So fast that after a quick trip to the restroom, the table had been cleared, along with my carry out container for leftovers. Fortunately, it was set aside at the bar and not tossed. If too fast service is my biggest complaint, I'd say it's a good problem to have. read more

Oh Bonchon! How delicious you are with your delectable Soy Garlic and Spicy fried chicken and variety of savory sides. Unfortunately, your inept front of house staff ruined an otherwise heavenly blissful gastronomic experience. The waters unfortunately took 15+ minutes to come out and the check even longer after they had cleared our table. We actually had to go to the register and ask for the check, since it seemed we were forsaken. Our fellow tables within the restaurant were left confused and dismayed at how long the service was taking. Definitely bad vibes all around! I still dream of how delicious the fried chicken was, but then get nightmares of being abandoned by the staff wondering what I did wrong. If there's one thing I'd recommend, order to go, and do not eat in unless you enjoy being disappointed by dismal service. read more

Met a couple of friends here for a late lunch on Sunday, and we had no problem getting a table. Service was excellent the whole time! My husband and I split the combo of 6 wings, 3 drums and got half with each sauce. The spicy chicken was EXTREMELY spicy. I didn't mind, but my husband didn't really like it. The garlic chicken was to die for! Crispy and cooked to perfection. We also shared the spicy chicken bibimbap. Again, it was super spicy. I really enjoyed it though! The portions are well worth the price. The space itself is welcoming and they keep it really clean. We absolutely would return because there are a lot of things on the menu we wanted to try! read more

I have come here 5 times now, and each time I've received such varying service. Unfortunately my last two visits have been unpleasant. Both times, I've placed an online order ahead of time and pre-paid, hoping to just walk in and pick it up. This most recent time, I was waiting for 30 minutes after my pick up time. And when my order was ready, the older woman there said "check your order because I don't want you calling me telling me that it's wrong." If you're going to offer order ahead services, then you should respect the time that you said it'd be done. And if it's not, you should at least offer your customers a glass of water or a free service item. Before I left, I said, and I quote "I was a bit disappointed with the wait time" -- and I was dismissed with "well it's a Saturday night every place is like this" and other KFC locations take longer. When I got home, I also noticed that the portions were much smaller than usual. And that really was the cherry on top. It is unacceptable that orders aren't completed on time, workers are rude, AND then you dismiss real feedback. I probably won't be back here in a while, and I certainly won't be recommending the order ahead option to any of my friends and family read more

My friend and I went to Bonchon for the first time today. When we got there, the place was empty except for this couple waiting for their take out order. We sat down at around 5:07pm and placed our order a couple minutes later. We got one order of medium mixed wings and drumsticks (10 wings + 5 drumsticks). 30 minutes later, we were wondering why it was taking so long especially since we were the only customers in the restaurant and there were also several staff in the kitchen. We didn't get our order until 5:50. It took almost 40 minutes to get one order out. We will not be coming back. read more

arrived when no one was there and everyone who came after us got their food first. after 40 minutes of waiting, we finally got our order but only because we said something to the server. had we continued to stay quiet, we probably would've had to wait till closing. the check got to us quicker than the dang food -.- read more

This used to be my favorite KFC (Korean fried chicken) until the last 2 lunch visits and 1 dinner visit. Service has changed (did they change ownership?) and price and selection was unreasonable. While I understand inflation and cost has gone up (which is ok and not the main issue), but the price of side dish and selection (used to have French fries upcharge of $1, rice is one of the side, now you have ti pay full price $3.99 for side of rice). Unfortunately the quality of the wings are also aren't as good, consistently 3x we were there. It's really sad, because bonchon WAS my favorite KFC read more

Always up for Korean bbq! Saw this and thought we would give it a shot. Good choice. We had the Korean fried chicken/wing combo and bulgogi. Each came with a side. We chose white rice and fries. Both were very good as well. Food came out fast but not all together. Had to snack on my fries while waiting for the chicken. Will come back however, as it was overall a good experience and very tasty. read more

Great restaurant! Really nice service and food was amazing :) great customer service you get your ho and fast too

The resturant itself was amazing the staff was very kind and attentive and the resturant itself was very clean. The food was overall very good. We got the mixed fried chicken wings and fried rice. The fried rice we got was just okay. It was kind of mushy and didn't have a ton of flavor, we also got rice as a side with our chicken which was the wrong move. We should have gotten fries because the white rice wasn't super great either. BUT THE CHICKEN is so good!!! Definitely worth all the internet hype and a must order! read more
