My husband, son, and I LOVED going here. I wish I could have made this review years ago and give it 5 stars back in 2023. We used to come almost every other Friday and were greeted by a nice young lady and got used to us being there that we were their "usuals". We would usually get the pork belly and galbi plates. We haven't gotten to visit this place during the holidays, but when we got back we were shocked that they changed management. Everything was overpriced! Like $32 for a galbi plate with little meat to offer?! $32 dollars can get me an AYCE KBBQ restaurant with that price. On top of that, they don't sell pork belly. So it was for sure a no go for my husband and I. This is pretty sad, but we're not coming back. read more

I loved stopping by for lunch in the past. They changed the menu to halal and eliminated the pork options. That is disappointing. They are now limited on traditional Korean plates now. read more

They need to update their business hours on Yelp. They close from 2:30-4 on weekdays. Didn't say anywhere on here. Matter of fact it says they're open. Drove almost an hour to try this place. read more

My husband & I tried this spot out for the first time yesterday & I'm so glad we were curious to step inside! The food was great! I had the Combo Bulgolgi & my husband had the pork belly. Highly recommend both of them. I'm definitely coming to this place again & tray something else in the menu. The lady was very friendly & welcomed us with a smile. If I can maybe add one recommendation to the restaurant is to raise the AC & try to get the kitchen vents going so the heat of the kitchen won't spread throughout the restaurant. We did order our food to go so customers do have that option :) & I won't take a star off because Tracy summer does have a role to play into that. Other than that... great experience! read more

Stopped by for a lunch and got the galbi special! Super yummy sides and the kimchi was sooo yum and homemade. Meat was so tasty, i usually never finish my food but this whole meal was a 20 min job for me. I'm stoked i came by! The lady at the counter was also extremely friendly :) read more

Ttobongee chicken - Lunch Galbi - Korean Near Me - Tracy, California

Food is decent, but lacks in quality with sauce and needs better service when it comes to busking out orders hot and ready and that you have to make sure to note extra crispy to staff to Improve service and food quality to a higher level of standard and satisfactory taste. Ambience and seating needs to be a bit better for comfortability. All and all wouldn't recommend at all. read more

Ordered the crispy chicken (mixed) and nam myung (mixed), tteokbokki, kimbap and Cole slaw this time- to go Service is always awesome whether you're dining here or take out. Place is always clean. Lots of tables and chairs to sit and eat at. It's always hard to choose flavors bc they're all really yummy! The radish get the large order on the side It just depends on what mood you're in. Have some soju with it too! read more

First time here and my wife and I are very satisfied. Great food.. Jap Chae is a bomb!!! Chicken is very good as well..... read more

Ttobongee chicken - Combo special... - Korean Near Me - Tracy, California

I'm a huge fried chicken fan. I'm not familiar with Korean style fried chicken but I must say I liked it , l liked it a lot. The women at the counter helped me pick out the type of chicken I'd enjoy. Large selection of dishes. The portions were huge. I enjoyed my lunch and had plenty left for a dinner. I plan on returning to try different dishes. Highly recommended. read more

Ordered the crispy chicken and it was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The restaurant was very clean and the staff was friendly. My friend ordered the soy garlic chicken and that too was also very delicious. Great place! Will be by again. read more

Stopped in with a big party on a Saturday for lunch. The staff was super accommodating for the 12 of us- even helped wipe down a high chair for my son. We started out with kimchi fried rice with spam, japchae, and fries. The kimchi fried rice was my favorite dish overall- the kimchi was not too overpowering and blended well with the seaweed and egg, making it creamy and flavorful. We got 3 baskets of chicken that came out within just 15 minutes. My favorite was the one with the hot mayo- something different for our first time. Overall we had a great dine-in experience and were happy to give it a try- I'll definitely be back when we are in the area again! read more

Food here is top notch. No question. My kids ate all the jap chae noodles with gusto and the soy garlic chicken was fresh and hot. I enjoyed their fresh picked radish but their ordering system is a bit confusing. You cannot order the radish as a side on the screen for ordering everything else, it is not an option. You have to pay via the center register. Oh and their Thai iced tea is SUPER sweet. I had to dilute it by 200%. read more

Ttobongee chicken - Menu - Korean Near Me - Tracy, California

Most recent order was disappointing. The soy garlic did not have as much flavor and the green onion was way too soggy. It was a to-go order. They forgot my coleslaw as well, and the site had no function to email or anything. I dreaded phone calls, so I decided to leave it be. Won't order again anytime soon. read more

Just went in and turned around after seeing their astronomical prices. Used to be much more decently priced. The size of the potion does not seem to have changed either. Saw a comment that ownership has changed. May be that is why. Anyway, not gonna be visiting this place anymore with those prices. read more

Appetizers were dripping in oil. Don't understand how they decided to serve such a dish. Chicken did not taste fresh. Underwhelming.

Food was 10/10!!! First time visiting this spot and I actually thought I knew where it was located but I got lost lmfao. But the journey was worth it. I tried their sodduk sodduk (first time trying--sweet and spicy at the same time, I loved it!), tteokbokki (which was spicy heaven. It also came with fish cakes!), Ttobongee chicken wings mmm mm mmm, so yummy . The following day went with my mom and we got more sodduk sodduk --this is now my personal favorite!!! Tried another one of their sides: fried wrapped seaweed also delicious. Such a great side to the tteokbokki. The extra crispy chicken wings from them and the fam devoured it in one sitting. The bulgogi combo platter was also a hit--we do wish they have the ala carte option for this because it was good. The KIMBAP was amazing too. I think it's safe to say I love this place just from the food alone. Service was excellent. I feel like they went above and beyond making the food so good and preparing them really well. The place has plenty of space and feels very welcoming. I have been talking it up to my husband and I can't wait to bring him & actually have a sit down meal there read more

Server was great, we came in 1-23-26 around 6. The food was amazing. We ordered the soy sauce and garlic boneless wings and the chicken fried rice! So happy we found this place. Great service makes or break it the young lady working up front was amazing! read more

Been here many times. Pretty much tried all their chicken options (except for the spiciest one) and some of their sides. Overall, their chicken dishes are good, but their sides are a hit or miss. Service can be good or bad, depending who helps you. The young lady is very nice. The old lady is extremely rude and should not be serving customers. read more

We tried this nice and clean place one weeknight. It was not busy, we got our order pretty quick. Had the spicy pork plate and short ribs, both were good. Also tried the jalapeno chicken which was a good size serving with a nice kick! read more

I absolutely love Korean fried chicken so imagine my excitement when I learned about one opening in my hometown. My brother and I came here at around 1:30pm, which is an hour before they close for their break. There was an older female worker in the front who was rushing us to quickly order even though we came in an hour before closing. I enjoyed the wings and the dduk bok gi, but the sweet potato fries were very dry and overcooked. I was so disappointed because I'm a big fan of sweet potato fries. It's nice to have a Korean fried chicken place in Tracy, but the food here didn't exactly hit the spot for me. I think I would rather drive out a bit farther for my KFC cravings. read more

Ttobongee chicken - Yang Nyum wings - Korean Near Me - Tracy, California

Spent 120.00 on 48 wings. Wings were just ok. Definitely doesn't justify the price. A full (16 wings) shouldn't cost 37 dollars before tax. I really hope they consider lowering prices. read more

I ordered a whole fried chicken and boy it was so good that I, myself, finished half of it. It was perfectly fried and the spices on the breadcrumbs were just too good. What a change from a regular fried chicken. On top of that it was HALAL. A must try!! read more

Korean Fried Chicken in Tracy?! So excited to see all of the new restaurants opening around the area. This was my first time trying Ttobongee, although I've heard that they also have other locations in and around the Bay Area and Sacramento. They've taken what used to be Squeeze Inn, right by West Valley Mall! Parking can be a little tricky since there's a limited amount of areas you can park. I visited right as they opened at 4:30 PM for dinner, and there was already a line of people waiting to order. Ordering is done through a large touch screen, which contains photos of the food, prices, and descriptions which is nice, especially for newcomers. I ordered a half order of their Yang Nyum chicken and the Crispy Chicken as a first try (both as wings, which came with 8 pieces). It took about 30 minutes to receive my order, with about 3-4 parties ahead of me. They also have online ordering available on their website for those looking to be in and out. Onto the food: + Yang Nyum Chicken (4.5/5): Fried chicken with a sweet Korean chili sauce! Definitely on the sweeter side; it tastes strongly of gochujang which I really enjoyed. + Crispy Chicken (4.5/5): Looooved how crispy this was! Double fried chicken added nicely to the texture. The chicken remained moist on the inside which was surprising too. The flavor and seasoning kind of reminded me of KFC in a way? The packaging here is super cute and they arrange it in a way so that your chicken doesn't get soggy on the way home. They also seem to have lunch specials here which is nice too. I had minimal interactions with the servers when it comes to service, but I do think they could be more attentive since I noticed some customers coming in confused about how to order (since they weren't taking orders at the cash register). read more

Best Fried Chicken spot in Tracy. There's no discussion. If you did a blind taste test from plain Fried Chicken to everywhere else in Tracy, this would definitely come out on top. I have to say I'm a big fan of KFC ( Korean Fried Chicken ), so I was happy a spot opened up in Tracy. They took over the old Squeeze Inn location. Tto Bong Ee is not my favorite chain, but their quality here is far above and beyond anything else in the area. Super juicy, crispy, and flavorful fried chicken. Find a sauce of your preference and you're all set! I would recommend just getting their "Crispy" chicken to start if you don't know what to get. You can't go wrong there. Some downsides though, if I'm being honest, is that their drumsticks are a little small compared to what you would expect at most other KFC chains. Their sauces also don't come on the side, which limits some customization options. That being said I still highly recommend this place if you're in Tracy and craving Fried Chicken. read more

This place is a hidden gem! The location is tucked away behind Tracy mall. Restaurant was very clean and staff is very friendly. Menu items have photos and descriptions with lots of options. I ordered the "favorite" which was the, xtra crispy chicken wings and they did not disappoint. Very crispy, juicy and seasoned well. Also came with a lil cup of cubed Dikon which was sweet, crunchy and made me wanting more. Obvi I could not pass on the Beef bulgogi and I'm glad I did not. The bowl was packed, flavorful and beef was velvety perfection. I will be making this place my new fried chicken spot in Tracy, it deserves alllll the hype! BEST WINGS IN TRACY!! read more

Ttobongee chicken - Beef Bulgogi - Korean Near Me - Tracy, California

See all

I gave this place another try. I ordered the Bulgogi Beef Combo. They line cabbage under the beef so you actually don't get the portions you visually think are there. So for the portions, it's pricey. Beef was tender, all the sides were good, but noodles felt a bit dry and not enough taste. We didn't order the crispy chicken again (which we didn't like). I think all the various chicken one should try are those with some sort of sauce. Happy there's another Korean place in Tracy, but it's pricey for the portions. read more

Honestly, it was my first time trying Korean fried chicken and it wasn't really that good. It could be just me but the chicken is dry and the sauces are very mid. It was also very expensive. The place nice though and the employees are nice, but overall, not worth the hype. read more

Wow, a new favorite in the Central Valley. I got the soy garlic half chicken (huge portions), the bulgogi combo, and the rice rolls + sausage skewers (came in a pair). The chicken was crunchy and spicy. We had the wings and drumsticks. They were big - not the little dinky ones at the chicken wing spots. The bulgogi was very flavorful and tender. The combo included kimchi, japchae, some steamed veggies, and rice - like a Korean bento box. Note that when ordering on Yelp, you will not get an order confirmation from the restaurant like you would with Doordash, updating you the restaurant received your order. Plus, Yelp will not notify you when the food is ready. Best to call to check on status. read more

Love this Korean fried chicken place!! The flavors are sooo good and chicken is perfectly crispy and delicious. Service was excellent as well. read more

Food is outstanding and I highly recommend eating here. I stopped by during my lunch break and ordered a kimbap with miso soup on the side. Went back a second time the following week, and even brought my family there to try their food. That other time my husband ordered the fried chicken, and my daughter got the fried rice. Everything came out so good and you get a lot of chicken with your order. It was perfectly cooked with a crispy shell and juicy meat on the inside. Don't forget to order their boba since those are really good as well. We got the taro boba and the mango boba. The service is great and the aunties there are super nice. The restaurant itself is clean and reminds me of those cafes in Asia where you and a group of friends can go to hang out with good food and some drinks. 10/10 would definitely continue coming here! read more

New owners? bad experience in terms of ordering/customer service. Charged me for S7 beef plate on the menu when I asked for spicy chicken #7. Asked to dine in and given a 10 minute wait, after about 20 mins of standing looking at 3 dirty, empty tables a lady asked if I still wanted to dine in or take out because I had seen that they were already boxing up my food at this point. I was too irritated to even be a Karen about anything so I left with what I had. bbq beef was chewy low quality, only leaving 2 stars because the korean corn dog was decent. $45 for a beef plate I didn't even order and a corn dog, white rice and side sauce. Guess Popeyes is still open for chicken read more

Absolutely love this place! It is my go to place when I am crave Korean fried chicken. Service is great and the place is always clean.

We tried the original, yang nyum, and soy garlic. The chicken were juicy and moist but spicier than what we were expecting for mild. Our order came with one container of radish and it provided much needed crunchy relief read more

This was our first time here and I've been really trying to find a good fried chicken spot since moving from the Bay Area. I ordered the half order of soy and garlic wings with fried squid as an appetizer. My friend got the pork belly combo. The food was very good. The wings did have a lot of garlic and over powered the meal slightly but still very delicious. The pork belly was great. The employees were very kind. Location is great as it's right off the freeway in Valley Mall. read more

Great Customer Service, Chicken was AWESOME....I order to go so I can't say much but the restaurant was clean and spacious.

This was our first time eating here, and we ordered our food to-go. We got the boneless fried chicken and it was incredible! 0 complaints, it was cooked well and the amount of sauce was perfect. We also got the tteokbokki and it was all good. The bowl was huge, and the portion sizes in general are filling. Overall happy experience, and We'll be coming back to try more! read more
