    1/2 Crispy Yangnyeom Chicken
    Clarence M.

    Another hard to find, tucked in the corner and not enough signage yummy food spot. Vons is located next to Sushi Hook on Howe. This location shares operation with a Ramen and More. My fiancé and I tried two orders of their chicken and Bulgogi Ramen. The prices of the chicken seem a bit steep compared to other chicken locations but in this day and age small restaurants like this are just trying to survive. We order a half order Crispy Yangnyum, half order crispy garlic chicken tenders and Bulgogi Ramen. The Yangnyum has a bit of a kick. The half order of legs are huge and have tons of meat. The flavor is all the way down to the bone. Next time I will try the legs extra well done for a better crunch which I heard is the way to go. I also added the butter powder seasoning to a few of my legs as suggested by a friend. A must try!!! The crispy garlic chicken tenders were delicious! They are crunchy and flavorful. They use chicken thighs to make their tenders. The tenders are a nice size and covered in their garlic sauced. I also added the butter powder seasoning to a few of my tenders just to see! It's really good with their butter powder seasoning as well. The Bulgogi Raman bowl was pretty yummy. The meat was well seasoned and tender! I am not a fan but my fiancé enjoyed the bowl. Besides, the price and location the food is really good. The service is great! The restaurant is small in the inside with Limited seating. For those who like Sake, they have a few selections on their menu.

    You know that the fried chicken is K-style when you take a bite of it and think "I sure could wash this down with some ~beer~." *KrONcHy* fried chicken. Juicy too but also a tad too greasy for my liking. Not a fan of the yangnyum sauce used here; rather gloopy and tastes very ketchup-y. Laver rolls are nice little appetizers if you need even more crispiness in your feast. The honey butter French fries are the ultimate drink snack lol super generous portion of honey butter seasoning that tastes very similar to the seasoning used in bagged honey butter chips seen at Asian grocery stores. Friendly server. Overall a pretty decent spot if you have a hankering for some Korean fried chicken in the area.

    You need to run & give this restaurant a try, it's so delicious! As soon as you walk in, you're hit with yummy aromas of what's being cooked. It's a small spot, kept clean, service is fast, & food comes out piping hot. Also, the servers are very attentive & accommodating. 10/10 - Crispy Fried Chicken (all bone-in wings/mild): the outside is very crispy, meat is juicy & tender, & the garlic soy flavor is dynamite. 10/10 - Garlic Edamame: these are finger licking good! The garlic chili mixture looks spicy, but it's not spicy at all. It packs such a great flavor & makes the edamame addicting. 10/10 - Kimchi: if you like kimchi, this one is a must order. The fermentation has a good balance of sourness & tanginess. 9/10 - Cheddar Fries: these are solid fries, they're crispy & yummy; since the cheddar powder is packed right on top, it did get a bit messy. 7/10 - Laver Roll: the seaweed wrapper is crunchy & the noodles inside have a great chew, but the flavor is meh as it lacks seasoning.

    Delicious! (even for a fried chicken joint)

    I did a DoorDash pickup for some Curry Chicken and I was pleasantly surprised. The curry was herbaceously robust with flavor and creaminess. The broth had mild aftertaste, which I did prefer. The chef served my to-go order in earlier than expected and my entire meal was piping hot! There was some seating for both indoor and outdoor guests for a combined 10-12 people. The restaurant was rather small. I'd definitely order their curry again and toss some fried wings in there!

    D. 1/2 Crispy Fried Chicken with Honey Butter
    D L.

    Bawmmmbbb I ordered 5 honey butter drumsticks. They honey butter flavor is powder, which I don't mind at all but would be cool if they had a sauce version. The chicken was perfectly cooked and the batter was crunchy and flakey. Though deep fried, it tasted surprisingly light and clean - not greasy! We really loved the honey butter chicken, and staff is great as well. 100% better than Bonchon!

    My girlfriend and I grabbed dinner the other night and it was her first time trying Von's and my first time to this location. It's much smaller than the folsom location, there's about 8 tables down a narrow space. The size and atmosphere reminded me of the chicken restaurants in kdramas. Lol Service was quick and everything was delicious. We started with edamame, gyoza and a side of pickled radish. I tried the crispy fried chicken with honey butter for the first time and it was unique. The flavor reminded me of kettle corn. Hahaha, I know it sounds weird but it was actually very tasty! The Yangnyum will always be my favorite though - crunchy crust and nice and spicy sauce. I will say, this location has more on their menu than the folsom location but they do not offer happy hour like the folsom location. They also got pretty busy during dinner time on a Wednesday, which isn't super ideal for a small restaurant. I loved the homey vide and the chicken was bomb!

    This was my second time eating at this Von's location and first time dining outside. The patio doesn't seem to get used often, and everything was a bit dusty/dirty. For dinner between 3 adults, we ordered squid legs, laver rolls, and 2 half orders of chicken. We also got 2 sides of rice and a side of pickled radish. Laver rolls were good, squid legs good but portion quite small, chicken was OK, a bit bland. Sadly, after finishing all our food, the 2 guys left still hungry, but I felt just right since I had a bowl of rice with my chicken. Service was OK. We got most of everything we needed in a timely matter.

    Vons Chicken opened a couple of years ago. They didn't do much to the dining room. It looks almost the same as before when this is Ramen and More. The dining room looks dated but comfortable and clean. They're famous for chicken. But my mood wanted the Bulgogi beef. So, I ordered the Bulgogi Rice Plate. It is ready in five minutes. It is delicious. The meat tastes excellent and juicy. I love it! I'll try their chicken one of the day. But I love their bulgogi beef very much now.

    When I think about getting fried chicken, this spot is definitely on the list. After eating here a few times, I would definitely recommend the fried chicken as all the flavors are a hit depending on your mood. I usually get wings and drums, but the half or full chicken option is a good choice as well. The garlic soy glaze is light and doesn't overpower the chicken, and it is still crunchy. The yangnyeom is a Korean style sauce, and the chicken is drenched in it. This can be spicy, so choose your level wisely. The ramen here is also popular. Everyone in the place was getting ramen, and the place was packed on a Friday night for dinner. I could do a bowl of ramen as an appetizer and some fried chicken as the main event, so you get the best of both worlds. I would definitely recommend the fried chicken to anyone looking for a new spot.

    B. Crispy Fried Chicken Full
    Charlene G.

    There's a reason 6 pieces of drums costs $15.99... The original crispy chicken in spicy, is legit GOOD! The honey-butter crispy chicken is my second favorite flavor because of its combination of savory and sweet. I would highly recommend Vons Chicken, it's expensive yes - but the chicken here is legit good. Very, very flavorful!

    Price of just broth?!

Not sure if they take reservations, but we arrived around 30 minutes after opening. A short wait for the table to be ready for the big group. Parked at DOCO East and was an easy walk. They don't validate parking though. To share we tried some of their crispy brussels sprouts (mint, cashew, chili caramel) and pickle plate (kimchi, veggies). This visit I got the Mushroom Paitan ramen which had: rich cashew cream, pork belly chashu, half ajitama, shimeji mushrooms, negi onions. The seasoned egg was good, though I wish you got more than just one half of it as default. The broth was rich and the pork was great. The noodles were thin but firm I also tried their Kodaiko Palmer drink (nonalcoholic), which had earl grey and another Japanese tea profile. The other special mocktail was a sparkling/spiced cranberry lemonade. If you're not into pork they have chicken ramens and soupless styles too. If you're not into noodles they also have salads, donburi rice bowls and sandos. It was a bit loud of an environment (music) to hear each other, but then again we were at a long table/large group. Service was wonderful.

I thought ramen places were supposed to be a lot quicker. Apparently you're supposed to order the karasge chicken here. We did not unfortunately. I don't know what kinds of ramen these people have had before, but the three we tried seemed more experimental than anything else. Also, we both threw up upon arrival at home. Maybe it was bad luck with what we ordered or something but not going to give it our usual 2nd chance because of the area. DOCO is getting ghetto fabulous. Lastly, the food can look pretty but first and foremost it needs to taste good. Arugula is an...interesting addition to ramen. I'll leave it at that.

I got the black ramen garlic which came with the usual toppings: roasted pork chashu , corn, green onions, bean sprouts, soft boiled egg, bamboo shoots, and actual fried garlic. The whole garlic cloves were plentiful and so much flavor. The description says fried, but they are so buttery soft, they taste more like they've been roasted or baked in the oven. I will 100/100 always order this ramen. Very flavorful broth. My husband got the chicken ramen, which I tasted, and it too had a flavorful broth. You choose your spicy level. I got medium which was basically mild. The portion and price make this a great deal for a quick dinner in Midtown. I love the late hours and the speed of which our food came out. We ordered the geso (fried squid) and the veggie tempura. I do not recommend the tempura. The batter was thick like carnival onion rings. They need to use panko for breading. The geso was ok, and served with an aioli sauce. Stick with the ramen. No need to waste stomach space on their appetizers. The right half of the restaurant is for Ramen 101, and the other side is for Orchid Thai. You order at the counter and get a number, find a seat. The servers came around and checked on us and helped us with any requests. The nice ambiance from the Thai side carried over to the Ramen side, but both casual. If you didn't know about Ramen 101, now you know.
