Yangnyeom wings
James E.

So it's been a few months since I was last here and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! Placed my order for Large wings and my flavor was soy garlic and tried their new offering Yangnyeom! Delicious! Sweet and spicy! This time the wings were excellent and very flavorful! Every bite was just as good as the last. Love the crunch on the outside and savory juicy inside. Way better than the last time I was here. Oh I also ordered some regular fried rice. Chefs kiss. Perfect combo with the wings. Our order came out very quickly and the presentation was amazing. The store was clean and fresh, plenty of seats and again there's plenty of parking around but can get full quickly since it's a popular area. Again recommend ordering ahead of time if you're in a rush. If you like Korean fried chicken, perfect for bdays, fight nights or ball games etc. I highly recommend you stop by Bon chon. Already looking forward to my next visit. Now it's time to hit the gym lol.

I just want everyone to be safe. I could have been severely hurt but I found a significantly sharp piece of metal in my creamy corn. i contacted the restaurant and they refunded the money but this plate was meant for my son which terrified me please keep our food safe .

Soy Garlic Wings
Will B.

A co-worker recommended this place for lunch weeks ago, and we finally made it. Soooo good. A small venue on Stuyvesant Ave in Union (one of the main streets). There is street parking, if you can find it, & back lot parking & you'll have to walk around the corner. It's a no frills place, with tables & chairs for dining in. Service was quick, food prep time was about what was expected. The food was very good. We had the Korean Fried Wings: Soy Garlic flavor, Bulgogi Fries, & Pork Buns. All were excellent, & this place will definitely be on the go-to list while at work. The only major downside is their drink selection is the absolute bare minimum. Your choices are Water, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Ginger Ale, & Sprite. The drink fridge looked sad, as it had more cold food items stored in it, than drinks. They can definitely step their game up on this, Big Time! Grades: Soy Garlic Wings: A Pork Buns: A Bulgogi Fries: A+

Bull Dak - sooo small, not worth the price tbh

I love Bonchon generally, but this particular location not so much. First of all, when you walk in (we came on a Saturday evening), no one was sitting inside to eat. The place didn't look inviting at all, and people were solely there for takeout. It wasn't unclean and the staff was kind, but the tables are far apart and the place just looks uninviting and sterile. We purchased Medium-sized Wings (20 pcs) and omg the spicy one was sooo spicy. My fiancee and I can handle spicy but that was very, very spicy. We also purchased a Bull Dak, and let me tell you, it was SO SMALL. NOT worth $16. It was basically one cup of rice and one cup of spicy rice cakes, very not worth it. It was also very, very spicy. The total came out to ~$46, and we wished we had went elsewhere.

WE LOVE BONCHON! We usually only ever get the soy garlic chicken wings but this time I wanted to order some other dishes to try. First off, we love the chicken, always crispy but also smothered and covered with that yummy soy garlic sauce. This time we also got the seasoned fries which was yummy with the dipping sauce provided. I ordered the Japchae with bulgogi and I have never tried this dish before. Well I am in love with the. I love bulgogi always but these noodles were just so good. We also got tteokbokki. It's was cheesy and spicy. It was tasty but I could only have a few bites at a time. Everything was delicious and we will continue ordering from them.

Seasoned Zucchini fries

Bonchon has a special place in my heart as the introduction to the world of Korean fried chicken. Like many chains in Jersey, I used to look at this store as a novelty until it gained popularity and locations popped up everywhere. Similarly, Korean fried chicken (thankfully) became prevalent and other chains appeared nearby. I've been to this particular location of Bonchon throughout the years and have always had a good experience! The staff are always friendly and willing to help. The shop itself is super clean and has some eye catching art. I was particularly fascinated by the picture outlining what year Bonchon appeared in a new country. After trying various Korean fried chicken in New Jersey and New York, I still love Bonchon even though it's not my go to place. I would like more crispness in the chicken skin to balance the sauciness of the soy garlic. However, I think the chicken is affordable and cheaper than some other chains. The wings were also a decent size with plenty of meat on the bone. I usually only get chicken, but I recently got the seasoned zucchini fries, which were perfection! My only grievance was that there wasn't enough sauce for the entire basket of fries. I'm thankful that the Union Bonchon has stayed consistent in quality throughout the years, and has satisfied my craving for Korean fried chicken in the area!

Spy garlic chicken tenders

Got 20 piece soy garlic Chicken, chicken was hard , might break your teeth hard, was not edible.The chicken tender is very small, as in a pinky finger small.Workers was nice but this defiantly was not worth the money.save your money and go somewhere else.

I placed an online order, and my scheduled pick-up time was 30 minutes ago. I'm not sure when my order will be ready. It seems that the staff is having difficulty meeting the time targets and communicating effectively with customers about revised expectations after missing the initial pick-up time. I walked to an adjoining store and purchased fresh donuts. I received them in 15 minutes, but my Bonchon order still isn't ready. I was told it would be ready in 10. I'm watching the clerk play on their phone and casually tell me my order isn't ready yet. We are now a full 47 minutes past when my order was supposed to be ready. If you want bonchon...this spot probably isn't the place you want to come to.

Front of restaurant

Food was what is expected of a Bonchon. The interior of the restaurant is setup for carry out orders. The ambiance seems pretty dead here with very few patrons staying in here to eat. My fiancé and i ordered the Buldak chicken and the fried chicken. We've had bonchon in nyc at the ktown location and the chelsea location but it's truly not the same.

The food is salty. The chicken wings had no meat. The chicken Katsu is not chewable. I was regretted I went there. Bon Chon shall discontinue their license. If not, everyone thinks their taste is like this.

Had the worse experience here on a pre order for Super Bowl Sunday. Order placed and paid for in…read moreadvance. On day of, Food never arrived, I called the store several times this yielded zero results, just empty promises: "we are making it now" "it's on the way" To add insult to injury when after 4 hours of not receiving food, I called to cancel-was put on indefinite hold no one came back on the line. I finally hung up, waited several minutes and called back. Spoke with a "manager" (he sounded exactly like the guy who put me on indefinite hold) who said "we will cancel the order and refund your money it will take 24-48 hours" well, guess what? Almost a week in and they didn't refund anything the "pending" charge was actually processed. I had to get my credit card company involved. Extremely poor customer service. No one showed any remorse, no one ever apologized. Based on this I will never return to this location. NOTE TO: customer service comment below-I had already visited your "contact us" link and provided my concerns prior to posting this review.

I hate to leave a poor review. However, my reviews will always reflect my experience. As frequently…read moreas I've patronized this location and spent plenty of money, the last time was my last time. The host/cashier, La'Keith, who took my order AND the manager (Taliah?) both exhibited disgustingly poor service from entry to exit. Neither individual cared enough to apologize or rectify THEIR wrongdoings. It was another employee, who did the cooking, who apologized on their behalf. La'Keith rolled his eyes, heavy sighed, and stared at me.... never asked to take my order or anything that is typically expected when you walk into an establish to order food. After paying for my order, I realized on the receipt, La'Keith charged me $2.00 for "all flats" in which I never requested. So, I had to be refunded and recharged correctly, by someone else. He also made up a name in their system (shown on the receipt), instead of asking for my name. So when my order was ready, the gentleman calling the name did so over & over. La'Keith also did not ask if/what kind of dipping sauce I would like, so he chose for me. So glad I checked the bag before leaving, it was not what I wanted. So that had to be changed as well. The poor service was appalling to say the least, and you'd think with so many other options and locations nearby they'd care enough to provide at least decent service. It matters!! After bringing this to the manager's attention (which she knew because she was clearly standing nearby, witnessing everything), still.. she shrugged her shoulders. Wingstop's corporate offices should be aware that their employees need to be trained better! The food - the wings are good, lemon pepper specifically. The chicken tenders are surprisingly good, too. A bit overpriced, but not even free food should be accompanied by nasty service. I would not recommend this location to anyone. Try Watchung and/or Linden.
