1x hella my top - crispy / yangnyeom/ garlic Music was good and service was nice overall I would come back for sure

Crispy Fried Chicken (Full) wings only!
Therese J.

This location, specifically, is consistent with their crispy fried chicken we often order for pick up to take home for dinner for those nights we don't feel like cooking! The consistency is what keeps us coming back and service too! It is always a pleasure when every worker we've dealt with has a smile on their face upon entering the establishment. The ambiance is upbeat with music bumpin all the time! The dining area is always clean. Terry is always a pleasure and very friendly too! You won't be disappointed!

I love the pickled daikon!

I'm not sure why I haven't reviewed this place yet - but here goes. I've been ordering from Vons Chicken for at least a couple of years and this is my favorite location. It's on the way from work when I go home, so it's also a convenient location as well. I usually order ahead and it's ready when I get there (10-20 mins, depending on which chicken I order). I've tried most of the flavors and my favorite is the spicy yangnyum - it has a good amount of heat, but it's not overpowering. I also enjoy the fries - cheddar, honey butter and sweet potato fries. I usually go for extra crispy and every single flavor has been great. I love how the flavor is infused into the chicken and every bite is delicious. The fries could be crispier, but that's my preference - they are good as is. Service has always been quick and friendly when I've picked up my order. I've never ate in the restaurant, but it seems like a good place to chat and hang out. Every time I've been here - people are sitting around and seem to be enjoying their meals. There is quiet music playing and plenty of seating available. Everything also looks very clean and calm.

Crispy Padak Chicken (Lunch Special)
Maggie L.

Grabbed takeout lunch from Von's Chicken in Saratoga and it definitely hit the spot! We ordered the Paldak Chicken--the one topped with green onions--and it was delicious. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the generous layer of fresh green onions added a nice kick while making it feel just a little bit healthier (gotta love getting your veggies in, right? ). Service was great too! The staff was super helpful and answered all our questions with patience and a smile, even though we were ordering to-go. Overall, tasty food, friendly service, and a smooth pickup process. Will definitely be back to try more!

We love the padek flavor chicken and the honey butter fries!
Gina D.

We love Vons and are so glad they opened one in Saratoga!! The chicken was so good and the honey butter fries are really addicting. Great and friendly service, and there's seating for about 22 people inside and 12 outside. They were also so sweet and gave our kids balloons during their grand opening!

Kimchi Steam and Fried Rice Crispy Real Garlic (Lunch  Special)
Anne S.

Kimchi sunny side up fried rice with tasty lemony garlic chicken was perfectly made with purple daikon radish. Wonderful place n I've tried the Mountain View one before too. Thanks Dominic for your excellent service!

Menu showing options and NO MENTION OF SAUCES OR GLAZES
Andrea B.

We came here because Vons Chicken on Branham Lane Closed. The menu here offers Fried Chicken. No Crunch Chicken like the other Vons locations. Also, the menu Clearly Does Not Mention Any Sauce for the fried chicken. (See photos) And the cashier did not mention any sauce. But the Fried Chicken was coated in a glaze/sauce which is not at all what we wanted or expected. It tasted fine but I would not order it again. The cashier did not understand why the sauce missing from the menu is a problem. The store was clean. The service was otherwise nice. But this is not the Vons like the other locations.

Crispy Yangnyeom (Lunch Special)
Louis K.

- Chicken is freshly cooked, not refried or left cold in the warmer. It was very juicy and crispy. - Fries are also freshly prepared, very hot and crispy, fluffy. - I asked for Mild. And it really is mild, which is great. I got annoyed with other Korean fried chicken places when their mild was still too spicy - The restaurant is very clean, neatly organized. The amount of food I got for their lunch special for 12.99 is really amazing. I would visit again with friends next time.

Cute Interior
Nika N.

Really delicious & yummy chicken here! Vons doesn't fail me when it comes to their crispy chicken. For this location specifically, sometimes it does feel like it's hidden, due to it being in the same plaza as Mitsuwa & Kinokuniya, just on the other side. But I think it's worth the visit, especially when you're crazing some small munchies. The service I got with my friend was super sweet, the staff were very nice. There is parking right in front of their location & the restroom was kept clean too.

Our order came out within 15 minutes after the kiosk order and everything thing was hot. Fries chickens were crispy. Ttokboggi was good as expected but having it together with the fries chicken balanced the fried food. Glad we did not add French fries. The place was not crowded at all and so it was a nice experience.

Crispy Fried with Honey Butter (Half)
Cindy N.

Dominic was knowledgeable and kind to accommodate to the trending flavor "Prinkle" in Korea. I ordered the honey butter and he put in a Cheddar flavor extra to replicate the "Prinkle". So very kind and the restaurant was clean! I love dining here and connecting with the employees!

Amelin N.

Great chicken, and rarely ever busy. The honey butter wings are a must try! Ordered over the phone for pick up and it was super quick and easy. You could also order online or on the kiosk inside. Took barely any time for the order to be ready and it tasted fresh. The pickled radish also tasted good and did not stink too much (unlike some other places). Wished the honey butter seasoning was tossed more evenly as I would've preferred it to be coated on all sides vs just the top even though it was a generous portion of seasoning.

The tofu soup is rich, and somehow always hits the spot. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, and definitely does fill up quick so go early to beat the rush. The service is always fast and the servers are always kind. This is one of the spots that I consider a hidden gem. 100/10 would recommend.

Descent spot for Korean tofu soup and bibimbap!…read more We went on a Friday night in September and it was packed! The interior doesn't have much space and only around 10 tables or so. We had to wait ~45 minutes. You start off with a standard banchan selection but they sure are generous with the portions! I ordered the Combination Tofu Soup with the highest spice level. The tofu soup had savory and deep seafoody notes with that tingling backdrop of spicy Korean flavors. The tofu was voluptuously soft and pillowy. Of course it's served steaming hot in those stone bowls and pairs perfectly with the provided rice! There wasn't much meat though -- a few small strips of beef here and there, one shrimp, and a couple small clams. One thing is the tables are packed super close together here since it's a tight space, and it can get very hectic and loud. Also the prices are pretty steep -- 20$ for tofu soup and 25$ for bibimbap. I'd probably come here again but at a less busy time.

We ordered the kimchi fried rice (8/10), which was really good! I do wish it came with more fried egg and that the kimchi was chopped a little more finely, but it was still delicious. The galbi short ribs (10/10) were definitely the star of the show! Hands down some of the best I've ever had. They were marinated to perfection, SO juicy, and incredibly tender. These are an absolute MUST-ORDER! We also got the potstickers as an appetizer, and the sauce they came with paired perfectly with them. The portions were great, and everything we ordered was more than enough to share between our group of four. Overall, such a great experience, and I'll definitely be coming back! So glad we stumbled upon this spot!

According to the notes on my phone, I have some updates for you for SJ Omogari. ha ha!…read more A noteworthy change is that they now have outdoor seating with a covered patio. Also, even though there is a small parking lot behind their building, do not park there. That is for employees only. And before you ask, no, I did not park there. I'm a rule follower. Just sharing for your information. There is always plenty of street parking. Just make sure you feed your meter. I paid $3 for an hour and a half of parking. Again, this update is after multiple meals with different people. SJ Omogari continues to be a go to favorite, especially if you want Meat Jun. I've tried it at other restaurants, and none come close to the flavorful, tender version from SJ Omogari. My friend and I had lunch at SJ Omogari yesterday. The tables seemed very close together. It's good for the restaurant to get more people, but it felt a little closed in for my personal space preferences. This was my friend's first visit, and she loved it! I ordered Meat Jun (duh), and we shared a dumpling tofu soup. I was feeling bold, so we asked for medium spicy. I was sweating, but it was very flavorful and I kept eating as the sweat dripped down my head. My friend ordered the chicken bibimbap, which SJ Omogari calls, "Chicken Ricebowl." That stone bowl was SUPER HOT! It was sizzling when served, and we could still see steam as she packed up her leftovers! My friend loved the crispy rice on the bottom. SJ Omogari is on the pricy side, but still worth it. Go!

I didn't realize this location has closed down…read more Prior to the restaurant closing, the husband and I went to Jeonju to satisfy our Korean food craving. We ordered the Iron Plate Seafood Pancake, Seafood Bibimbap, LA Style Grilled Beef Ribs, and Grilled Beef Brisket. Overall, food was decent but I felt like the ingredients did not taste especially fresh or of high quality compared to their other location in Milpitas. Super busy atmosphere when we were there and customer service was substandard. Although we didn't have the best dining experience, I'm sad to see this place go!

Went to Jeonju yesterday with a couple of friends to grab dinner. We must've went on an off day,…read moresince about 30% of the menu was sold out! This wasn't too much of an issue, and we ended up ordering cheese corn, pork tofu soup, and the galbijjim. Though the wait staff was a one-man show, he was efficient, kind, and attentive. Kept us stocked with water and got us whatever we needed right away (ladle, bowl, etc). Banchan came out almost immediately after ordering. The food was really yummy. One of my friends and I are sensitive to spicy foods, so we were a bit intimidated when the food came out RED. However, the spice level was truly mild and just a little kick of heat. The galbi was extremely tender and everything was well seasoned. My only other issue is the prices are a bit high. You can get similar food for a couple bucks less at spots in Santa Clara. Overall, a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to come back again!
