Bonchon" means "my hometown" in Korean. True to its original roots, Bonchon is a family-friendly establishment, offering an affordable casual dining experience along with a lively atmosphere. Bonchon's unique Signature Korean Fried Chicken and complementary Asian Fusion dishes keeps Bonchon lovers craving for more.
Atmosphere was very nice. Staff significantly helped us as it was our first time eating here. The wings were really good.
Great stop. A little pricey but we enjoyed the food. The crust on the chicken is exceptional! It was hot, cooked through, and great tasting. I love spicy and my wife likes sweet, both like bold flavors. This had it all. We had the drumsticks and kimchi. Thanks a bunch!!
Everyone should try lorean fried chicken. The sauces are good and not too spicy. This place is a great way to introduce people to korean fried chicken. The staff here are friendly and very efficient. The restaurant is clean and has a good atmosphere.
TRY THIS PLACE NOW!!! Just by the pictures you can tell we are obsessed. O M G THESE ARE THE BEST WINGS. We were blown away by them. They were so tasty and the drumsticks were HUGE. We tried it with the Korean Barbecue sauce and it had hints of sweet with the smallest kick of spice ( I am not tolerant to spice and I still ate them) The white rice was meh but it’s just that…rice, so I wasn’t necessarily disappointed by any means. If you are going for the first time, I would try the mix of wings and drumsticks . For us, the drumsticks took the cake. Wings were mostly flats on our order. If you like a more even sauce to wing ratio, get the wings. But the drumsticks were THE DEFINITION of fried chicken. Place was spotless and they even provide gloves if needed so you can dig in on your rings without getting messy. The shop has 4 tables and one wall seating spot. With what we saw today, they will need a bigger spot no later than next year!!! Frequent customer alert over here!
Wow wow wow!! The food was stellar. We got some bao buns, chicken and rice cakes. Yummy!! Everything was so yummy and exceeded expectations!! They had k-pop music playing on the TVs. It was a lovely place to get Korean food after watching all the K-dramas! I loved it!
The bulgogi fries were great. The fry on the chicken was good but the flavor was a bit lacking the taste of the Korean BBQ was barely there and the spicy wasn't spicy. Just like when you buy a bag of spicy chips and they're not spicy same thing. A bit of a flavor let down on the chicken.
I recently discovered BonChon on my way home, and I just had to check it out since it's new to Huntsville! I was completely blown away by the food and the restaurant's cleanliness. I tried the spicy mix combo, and it was absolutely amazing! However, there was a bit of a hiccup with the customer service. The staff seemed to struggle with English, which made it challenging to ask questions or get assistance with the menu. As a first-timer, I found it a bit overwhelming, especially if you're unfamiliar with Korean fried chicken. It would be fantastic if they could provide more guidance for newcomers to help them navigate the menu. Despite the communication barrier, I'll definitely be back for that incredible chicken and slaw--it was on fire! The only reason for the 3 star is based on customer satisfaction and service. But food is a 10!
I was looking for something to pick up for to take in for dinner when I realized there was a Bonchon in the area. I was so excited because we used to frequent this organization all the time when I lived in the DMV. I am sad to say that based on what I received yesterday, I do not see myself returning. The young man working the register closest to the drive thru did not want to be there. I did not time it, but usually, when someone walks into a restaurant, someone says hello. Then, if they can not assist you immediately, they will say, "I will be right with you." That did not happen. I understood there were people there who arrived before me, and their food was ready, but we are talking basics in customer service. After he distributed four trays and two to go bags, he finally came back to the register to ask, "What can I get for you?" I placed my order to go, and at the end the transaction the tip menu came up. For the first time since the pandemic, I felt irritated to see the tip screen. I usually tip, but I am not tipping you for your poor customer service. I can tell you the gentleman on the right who came to the front after I ordered had better customer service. I observed him while I waited for my food, and he gave me my order when it was ready. In ordered the 30 count wings half Soy garlic (which used to be our go-to order), and (I also tried the new flavor to us) half Korean BBQ. The Korean street corn was also new, so I tried that as well, and I opted for the cole slaw over the pickled radish. I opened the box when I got home. I knew immediately that there was a problem. The wings looked wet, no drenched in sauce. That is not how bonchon is supposed to be. The wings were supposed to be crispy, not soggy. That was what I liked best about them. The Korean street corn was good. The fries were okay, but the chicken was not up to standard, especially if you had Bonchon at another location. The look and feel of Bonchon's product was not there. Unfortunately, until they get that right...I do not plan to return. The food and the service both can't be off.
Jacob, Carina, Ell gave the best service I ve experienced in Huntsville to date. Their fun attitude and enthusiasm will bring me back alone.
Best chicken I ve ever had and in such a clean environment. Make it your priority to come here and be delighted. Jacob took fantastic care of us as well
Jacob was absolutely amazing. Super sweet, great customer service. The food is amazing. We literally drove 2 hours to get this chicken.10/10
The boneless chicken with the soy garlic sauce is always top notch!
I was here for Door Dash. The store is clean, friendly staff, quick and excellent service. Each time I have been here, there are people dining, other dashers, and other customers picking up their own orders. This demonstrates good food, honesty, friendly staff or the place would be empty like the thieves at Mei-Wei that I wrote a negative review on. This establishment is not trying to steal from customers with owners admitting it on my review. I recommend going to honest places like this one so you get your moneys worth.
Great new spot for a different type of chicken
Always awesome!
I had the Bulgogi fries and they were a 10 for me!!!
The food and service was amazing. I definitely recomend going to try it out if you ve never been
I dont want to give even 1 star. The managers response is terrible.
Service and food was phenomenal! Definitely come here!! :-)
Second time and still very impressed with service and food. Im working my way through the menu!!
The food is amazing and the service is always fast and friendly
The people that work there are the friendliest and the food never takes long.
Wonderful food!!!
Food was amazing and exceeded expectations!!
The best fried chicken in Huntsville. It may be the best fried chicken in history!
I wish there were 6 stars, because this is the most amazing chicken I have ever eaten in my life. The people are friendly, courteous, and kind. If you come to Huntsville, it is a must!
Great people, amazing service!
Best chicken in Alabama!!! The service was amazing my party of six was greeted with smiling faces from the whole staff! Amazing atmosphere!

Decor inside is fantastic with music. Food quality is always great when I come. Some of the crispiest best flavored wings Ive had. Fromt service desk is very helpful and patient as well as friendly. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good non traditional wing spot.
good costumer service
Great food and great service! I ll return to this establishment!!
The food was served quick and was delicious! We got the Seoul Sampler and everything tasted fresh. The corn was especially good.
Clean inside and out. Great service. Highly recommend 10 of 10 restaurant
Good chicken
Lovely place with nice staff and amazing chicken would definitely recommend!
there was this one kid named Kevin that gave us great service and the food was great
Awesome service!
Kevin was such a good worker
Order at 8pm in uber eat and store cancelled my order after 30mins when driver is there to pick up at 8:30pm. I m sure they forgot to make my order and driver can t wait for them to remake. This is terrible experience
We got the Bulgolgi, 5pc spicy tenders, seasoned fries and chicken katsu and it s all amazing!
Great tasting food!
Everything we get from here is awesome and the service is always top tier
jacob was extremely helpful with breaking down the menu with this being my first time ! amazing customer service. definitely matches the atmosphere!
Kid-friendliness: I have always gotten great service. Recommended dishes
Jacob was the best server I ve encountered in Huntsville and this place is phenomenal!!
Everything was such a vibe!! Food was hot and delicious.
Prices were affordable, options were very tasty, chicken was crispy with just enough sauce. There wasnt along wait food was hot and fresh... Definitely will be coming back!
Service and food is great!
Bulgogi is perfect the marinade they use is awesome. Great food and service!!!
Very clean environment and amazing food. Service is great, we are using them to cater our wedding coming up!
I LOVE the food! I had Bulgogo fries, EXCELLENT!!!!
Stopped by for something different while traveling for work. The reviews looked good, staff greeted on entry, food smelled good. Update: I ordered the Seoul Sampler to try a variety. The food overall tasted great. The Yangnyeom sauce was flavorful if not as spicy as expected. Crunch was great on the chicken. I preferred the wings over the drums, but both were good. The street corn was an odd flavor pairing, but I liked it if grading by itself. Bulgogi fries were OK, but seemed to compete with itself. Parking: Small dining room, so if they keep doing well, theyll be moving to a larger location soon.
I love this place it was my favorite in Maryland Ann and David are the sweetest ever.
Great food
Love their bulgolgi bowls! 100/10 recommend.

It s really nice in here!!!
Awesome Chicken!!
Great atmosphere, food is delicious. My favorite is the potstickers & chicken. 10/10
Customer service was great and food was excellent. If you looking for some spicy food there are a few things to choose from. The staff kept the dining room area clean and the music flowed with the vibe of the restaurant. Thank you we will be back soon!
Had my first try of this place today and they did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly and helpful when it came to personal recommendations. I think I have found my spot for fried chicken. I will be back! Food was EXCELLENT!
Awesome experience each time I have visited this hidden gem of Northern Alabama! From the quality of the crunchy chicken (Yangnyeom sauce, highly recommend) to the Korean donuts, it s easily my GO-TO spot in 256! The guys that work the front and kitchen, Jacob and Jande respectively, delivered top-tier customer service every time! Be back soon
Just tried Bonchon for the first and it was delicious. Jandee was very nice and super helpful explaining the dishes to us. Everything was very clean. We had wings, japchae and kimchi. It was all so good! We will definitely be back.
If you are looking for fast Korean Food, this is the place. I love their beef bulgogi! They are a little overpriced, but the food is good. Food
The food was delicious, hot, and fresh. There was excellent customer service from everyone but especially a gentleman named Jacob. Felt like home.
Excellent food great service would recommend to anyone Jan Dee
Jacob did a great job with my order. Even though it was online.
Jacob was so kind and Mr janbee was is so awesome food is great
Best chicken in Huntsville!
Bonchon is a great little place if you re craving crispy fried chicken. Their bulgogi fries are also scrumptious. I like to chill and watch the kpop they have playing on tv while I wait for my order. If you re in a rush, order ahead of time because it takes time to make this delicious food.
Carina was amazing!
Loved this place! Food and service was amazing!
Favorite place ever!
Amazing customer service!!
Love this place!
Best customer service I have ever seen, attended me fast, Carina was taking my older
delicious.
This place is fantastic!
Amazing love it
Quite delectable.
Delicious food!!
Good food and service!!!
Yummy chicken! Big drumsticks, crunchy and chicken cooked perfectly. The sauces are wonderful and the pickled diakon was amazing. Well be back soon
Don t let the negative reviews deter you. This place is great! Their fried chicken is perfect. We ve been to many Bon-Chon restaurants and this is our favorite. Pro tip: the soy-garlic and the yang-yum are some of the best flavors they have. The spicy is very good too, but it doesn t go well with soda or beer. Yang-yum has all the flavor and doesn t affect what you drink. Also you MUST try the parmesan fries and ask for spicy mayo to dip them in. So good! Employees were very kind too!
Really good food and very nice people
Bonchon is a great new addition to the Huntsville restaurant scene, offering a variety of delicious options. Ordering online is seamless, and the drive-thru pickup is consistently reliable with hot, fresh food ready at the scheduled time. Excellent customer service keep up the great work!
My wife saw Bonchon as we were passing by so we decided to stop and give it a try. I am now a fan. The wings are so crispy and delicious I was blown away. Bulgogi fries are excellent. Korean Street corn was a nice touch as well. The food came out quickly and the employees are polite. The restaurant was quite clean which is rare these days. I plan on working my way through their menu.
Ordered the Korean BBQ Chicken sandwich and it was without a doubt the worst chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. The chicken was HARD, ate two bites and didnt finish it. Seasoned fries were ok but it was a waste of money. Dont wast your time.
Incredible wings
Got take-out & while pricey, the folks there were very helpful navigating the menu & our food was prepared very quickly. Granted, we caught them during a slow period & werent waiting on many previous orders, but waiting 10-12 minutes was awesome! My Japchae was great (I opted for the fried egg topping: only $1 extra). Our other item (tenders) were happily devoured, too. Will definitely be back to try the Bao & also the fried rice. The onion rings were fine, though had a bit TOO much breading for me. My Gold Standard for the perfect O.R. is Shoneys Big Boy from decades ago. As of now, the ONLY place that comes close is Cheddars. Sorry, BonChon, you cant be great at everything. Overall, a nice addition to HSVs fast food line-up.
Ordered by delivery and pickup at restaurant sometimes. Decent food. Prices are a little high for my taste. May order again one day, but for now Ill just eat the cheaper Chinese food.
I was looking for a good chicken place that reminded me of being back in Seoul hands down the Best! Exactly how I remembered it. Sorry I finished all my food
Great place!
Food was ok. Chicken was bland. Ordered online and was asked for a tip while checking out ? Im picking up my own food and you ask for a tip ??? Also after paying I noticed a 99¢ convience fee added to my bill. Ridiculous business practice.
Has quickly become one of my favorite eateries. The food comes fast and the takeout containers are wonderful.
I got the Bulgogi Fried Rice. Tasted great....BUT, there was only FOUR bites of meat in the dish. Thats it. 4. I cant make this up. My husband got the Chicken Katsu and it was a nice sized portion, and it was good. But FOUR bites of meat for mine? Nah, wont get that again. Staff were nice and the place was clean. Got the food quickly. Oh, we also got a side of Kimchi. That was yummy. All the food was yummy. Just wish I had more of the Bulgogi.
That was fantastic! Fresh, made to order and piping hot! We got the sampler and everything was on point.
Some of the best fried rice and wings Ive eaten. The young lady that was running the cashier was very helpful.. 10 out of 10
I got the chicken strips. The flavor was good. Chicken was tough though and not much sauce. It was hard to eat because I think its overcooked. Very tough. I will probably try one more time and order something else. The sauce was good just not just on it. If I had eaten inside, I would have asked for more.
There s lots of better places to go in this area. Especially for various ethnic food. Thai Garden, Viet House, Dashu, I Love Hawaii, etc. This place is a dumpster fire of contradictions. My husband and I really wanted to like it. We watched it as it was being built, and were thrilled when the sign went up. He lived in South Korea for a short time, and we both love Asian food of all kinds. We don t really love this type of order at the counter type of service, but we tolerate it for Bandito Burrito, and I Love Hawaiian, and Urban Cookhouse, because everything else is good. This was a horrible experience. We went on a Sunday around 7:00pm, so maybe this was the 3rd string team, but is that really an okay excuse to treat customers poorly? We sat down to wait while our food was prepared. The table was dirty. I went back to the counter to ask the he/she man with the long nails to wipe it off, and my husband saw him give me a stink eyed expression. A bit later, he solemnly wiped it and left it wet. Oops! Apparently I offended him. We are sadly getting used to so many places hiring people that would prefer to not be at their jobs, so this seemed rude, but not shocking. We had ordered beef Bulgogi, Chicken strips, and potstickers. This with 2 sodas and the encouraged tip was $48. We waited a bit, and it was brought to the table. The potstickers were delicious, and a bit chewy. The beef bulgogi was good, but a bit bland. The chicken strips were chewy and extremely dry. Like cotton. I kept chewing, and it would just get bigger in my mouth. I looked around for some kind of sauce to rescue it. I went up to the counter to ask for sauce and the girl went straight to the register and twisted up her face we have to charge you for that, because we really don t offer sauce on the side okay forget it, I asked for a box. I had lost any love I might have for this place. I told her about how horribly dry the chicken was, and she got a real giggle out of that. She was looking forward to teasing the cook about that. At this point we felt completely disrespected, ripped off, and angry that we didn t just choose one of the deserving local businesses that treat us so well. But, If you like really dry chicken, insolent service, flavorless bulgogi, dirty tables, and loud Korean pop music, then this is your jam. Next time I ll go to Dashu. They absolutely deserve my money.
Well I have been to this restaurant a few times and what I noticed was when I get to my destination the chicken is soggy from the sauce they put on it which is fine if you like that but in this day to not have the option to put the sauce on the side so when go to eat it, its not soggy..2nd the service is children or teenagers that dont have the 1st idea about customer service..you can tell ots the owners kids or nephews ..entitled feel vibes off the ones I have interacted with..and 3rd it smells like sewage omg , soggy and sewage ...will be looking for another place to get sauce on the side for the food I pay for..losing money over that is CRAZY!!
My first ever visit & experience with Korean fried chicken. Wings were SUPER CRISPY because of the batter & being DOUBLE FRIED! Seasoned fries were ON POINT! A bit pricey, but worth it if you want the Korean experience. Would recommend another visit in the future.
Super yummy! Love the chicken tenders and seasoned fries!
If I wanted to pay $16 for Japchae, I d go somewhere where I would get way more quality ingredients for the price. Half my Japchae was pepper or onion.
Ordered delivery...it was amazing. We will be repeat customers. We are super picky, so this says a LOT! YUMMY
Been here a couple of times, me and the wife love it and has a real spice to it unlike other places in town. Havent been let down yet by them!
Ordered the boneless wings and rice, ordered it to go and realized chicken was wrong sauce. It was also overcooked and tough to eat. Rice was not great. Would not recommend sadly.
My food was 80% onions for 21 dollars and tasted nasty
Food was delicious, ordered bibimbap and bulgogi , ordered delivery and arrived sooner than expected.
I got the spicy chicken strips and they were extremely tough and not crispy (granted I did take out). Maybe if I ate them in the restaurant they would have faired better? Seems odd though for a place that seems geared towards takeout.
Struggling not to go back more.... Been twice so far and I really love their fried chicken bao buns but want to try other things on the menu too...
Excellent crispy chicken, highly recommend!
Taste is so good
We got the Tteokbokki, boneless chicken wings in soy-garlic and korean bbq, the mix of chicken legs and bone-in wings in korean bbq flavor, the coleslaw and the korean street corn and all 4 of us cleaned our plates. The food here is absolutely amazing and I cant recommend this place enough. The service and prices are really good as well. The only thing I will say is that you should definitely try to get there before or after the lunch or dinner rush because they wont have enough seats inside for all the people in there.
So good! Second time here, and I just had to bring my husband in because the food was so delicious last time. Bulgogo Bibimbap, Japchae glass noodle dish, and chicken strips all for the win! 2 new customers now! They are so good that they need a bigger place and more seating. Today was standing room only and quite a crowd of people waiting to order and those waiting for their order to be done. Likely more of a rush hour issue, since it was lunch time.
I am not super familiar with Korean style foods. I got the chicken katsu. Very bland. Definitely would not get again. The little exposure Ive had to Korean BBQ had strong bold flavors and this did not reflect that at all. We also got the chicken bao buns. These were delicious. Service was great, but the dining room a little small. I would go back but would definitely try something other than the katsu
Reminded me of Chicken & Beer in South Korea.
Excellent food served quickly. Friendly service. Chicken strips were very tender and tasty. Thank you.
I had bibimbap bulgogi and street corn. Delicious food and very friendly staff.
Unfortunately, I didnt get a chance to try the food at this restaurant because they were closing down 15 minutes before their actual closing time. I walked up at approximately 8:45 p.m., and the door was locked. A customer was walking out and held the door open for me to enter the restaurant. Once I entered, the staff looked at me and continued to clean. One staff member behind the counter said to me, We are closed. I asked them, What time do you close?, and they replied, 9 p.m. It was 8:47. I didnt see any signs that said the restaurant closes 15 minutes early. This is poor customer service, and I was highly disappointed. ***Update *** As you can see, Im assuming a member of management replied to my review asking me to go to their website to contact them. I did that and two months later I have not heard from anyone. Why waste my time asking me to contact you if youre not going to reply. Poor customer service, and still highly disappointed.
Good food, fast service, good atmosphere
The wings were delicious. I will definitely be back to try other menu items.
Listen... We decided to just go ahead and try half the menu. I think we got 8 or 9 items. Every single one was a smash hit. Im laying out on the line folks - the food is incredible. Not too spicy, and there are plenty of options that have no spice, but on the flip side theres tons of spicy stuff too. The WINGS. Youre just not prepared for how good they are. Usually when you get wings to go, they are soggy and past their prime by the time you get to eat them. Not these puppies. I dont understand what wizardry they used but the wings are incredible (I suggest adding the cucumber - wasabi dipping sauce!) They are huge wings too, 6 will feed you. Everything was large servings, and they have the estimated calories on their site for those of us who pay attention to that kind of thing. This place is a gem. Its got to be the best takeout in town. We just filled out stomachs (family of 4) and then filled out fridge with piles of leftovers. Absolutely worth checking out!
This has to be the best chicken in HSV. Especially the wings. The sauces and sides are also fantastic. Wish they had a location in Madison. Look out Slim chicken and Super Chix. Once word gets out about Bonchon, youre in trouble. I did have a little trouble placing my order last time because the music was too loud, and because there were so many choices, the girl behind the counter had to keep asking me questions. Well, she was extremely soft-spoken, and I had to keep saying what..what. After the fourth time, I just stopped talking and let my wife deal with it. The food was still great. Be careful of the hot sauce. Its plenty hot. If you open in Madison, you are going to need a much bigger dining room.
I loved it.
Fast and delicious food!
They have a limited menu, and the restaurant is too small and loud inside. Vegetarian options: Few options for vegetarians Food : 3/5 |
The Soy Garlic Korean wings were delicious!! I loved the pickled radish as well
The service was nice but the tables were unclean and there was napkins on the floor the food was really bad and expensive I might be a little biased because I worked at a restaurant but the bulgogi was bland the kimchi was way to expensive and the fried chicken was over cooked chewy and has something black on the inside the wings are okay tho well seasoned and crunchy.
Excellent food! It is a little higher on price - dont go in expecting fast food. The quality is top notch. Its like Five Guys, not McDonalds. I got the wings and Korean street corn. My son got the tteokbokki. Both were phenomenal! Give it a try!
Food was delicious! Soy garlic and k- bbq chicken- so good! K-pop videos playing on the TV, but not a lot of seating inside. I noticed they do have a drive thru window. The bulgogi fries were the best and the donut was the perfect finish!
Way too pricey to eat there as often as I would want to. Pot stickers (spicy) were great!
We have been wanting to try the new Korean BBQ out and it was really good. So my husband and I shared the 6w-2d combo with slaw and fries and added the pork buns. The pork buns are amazing! The wings are crispy and flavorful and omg the fries, well I couldve just ate them. The only down side was the cost of what we got. 40.35 is extremely expensive for such small portions, but other than that, we will be back.
It was not the best Korean fried chicken, but the doughnut was fire
It was okay
The best wings and chicken strips Ive had in a very long time!
I ve eaten here four times since they ve been open. Took my 83 year old dad there when he said he wanted some hot wings . He loved the spicy wings.
Ive tried the strips, the drums and the wings, and I will probably be going back at least once a week. Perfectly crispy and tender chicken.
Went for lunch and had the bulgogi korean tacos and chicken wings. They were so good that I went back for the bulgogi entree with kumchi and extra rice for dinner. Excellent both times!!
Been there 2 times this week.. The chicken is !!!! Next time Ill try something else but for now they got me locked with the chicken!!!
We got chicken, bulgogi fries, and donuts delivered and everything was delicious! Even having it delivered, everything was still hot fresh and crispy. The donuts were the surprise hit.
We decided to stop into Bonchon to pick up dinner to-go. It was a great last minute decision! The cashier was very friendly and helpful. The service was quick (as quick as one might expect relatively fresh fast food to be). Now the most important part of the review: the food. We ordered a combo to share expecting leftovers (8 wings + 4 drumsticks) and a regular order of fries. The chicken was mouthwateringly good. The spicy sauce we chose perfectly coated the chicken and it was so crunchy! The drums are massive and juicy. The wings are flavorful. We couldn t even finish half the portion between the two of us. I definitely recommend and will be going back soon!
Tasty wings, though Im not sure the hot flavor is as hot as other Bonchon locations Ive been to. Id recommend either flavor though, I usually get both. Still no way to get fried rice as a side with your wings without having to buy 2 separate entrees. But this works out, because the fried rice is sub par, in my opinion. Youre better off with a different side or getting rice from else where. I dont think youll go wrong with just the wings though. Parking: Enough spaces, but can get full pretty easily on a really busy day
These are the best wings Ive ever had in my life. Yes I was hungry but geeshhh the flavor, the crisp...chefs kiss!!
The food was delicious!!!
Overpriced soggy chicken, not worth the hype
Im Korean and Im great at cooking Korean food so I didnt have high hopes for this place but I was pleasantly surprised. It was actually decent! The prices are a bit steep for what you get but I would go again for the wings and fries.
First time trying Korean fried chicken. Really good. The spicy sauce is actually hot. Soy ginger is really good too.
This is some of the most flavor full wing s I ve ever had, simply delicious.
The flavors are on point but quality control needs to improve, first time our chicken was perfectly cooked and great. Second visit the chicken was over cooked and tough and dry. If they wanna stay in business they need to focus on quality and make sure the food is consistent. Edit: Heard back from them, they were appreciative of the feedback and our next visit the food was much better on the strips the nuggets still need work.
Its a chain, but its consistently good KFC. Have them mix the spicy and soy/garlic sauces 50/50 before tossing, its a magical combo
Loved the crispy chicken !! Have always wanted to try Korean fried chicken and have to say it is the best !
The wings were crispy and tasty super hot and fresh, highly recommended for friends and family.
We arrived around 6 pm on a Saturday. There were two (very very closely situated) tables available and about four couples in front of us so I grabbed a table while my husband ordered. The restaurant is small and seems to be more of a pick up and go type than sit down and enjoy with family. The tables are ridiculously close to each other. And when the line backs up (if you are sitting at the perimeter tables) you ll have people basically talking over you as you eat. (Fun fun) I will say that the bathrooms were very clean and the staff was friendly and efficient. So to the food: We got the pork buns, bulgogi fires, regular slaw kimchi slaw, and the boneless wings (spicy). The boneless wings were meaty but there was also a lot of breading on them and they were very greasy from the double fry technique. The sauce wasn t evenly distributed on the them and the bottoms of these had no sauce. The bulgogi fries were delicious. The flavor was well balanced with the green onions, garlic, spicy mayo, and cheese but they needed more spicy mayo on the side instead of ketchup. The kimchi slaw was just the regular slaw with taekyung red powder. I would still order it over the regular slaw. The pork buns would have been better if there was less slaw or maybe even none. My husband and I agreed that most of the options that we got would not carry well so dine in would be necessary but honestly we likely won t return. I m not excited to go back and try anything. This was essentially dressed up fast food. And while some people enjoy that type of food, its just not my cup of tea as I typically avoid fast food unless I m traveling late/stuck in airport. My husband ate most of the wings and complained about feeling sick for the rest of the night and attributed it to the greasiness. So my suggestion is: don t order a meal, split a few options just to say you tried it, and then make a decision. I think that we would have enjoyed our meal more if we had asked for slaw on the side for the buns and if we hadn t gotten the chicken but they are known for the Korean fried chicken. I gave them an overall score of 3 for the lack of seating, essentially being stacked on top of each other, and the fact that their known for item fried chicken was the least exciting/enjoyable dish on the table.
The food was not worth the money, food was about the same as school cafeteria chicken.
Walked in for the fried chicken and saw that they had bulgogi. Ordered the bulgogi instead. It was super yummy!! Portion size was small for the price and the rice side was barely 1/4 cup of rice
My first experience at this new Huntsville location was a 2/10. NONE of our food was fresh at all. My chicken tenders on my chicken sandwhich were stale like they ve been sitting for days. Service was fast but if I had the option to get fresh food and wait, I would have waited. Cashier was helpful and polite. Very disappointed in the food quality. I ve been to Bon Chon in Smyrna, TN and they knocked it out of the park.
This place is really small and was very loud. The boneless chicken needed more sauce. Will be back for another visit. Get the seasoned fries they were amazing.
I had wings with garlic soy sauce. Fairly tasty but a bit dry. Friend had pork buns. Good but a bit fatty.I am excited to have new, different food and will return to try the other Korean items.
Went in to Bonchon around 7:45 pm today on a Saturday night with my significant other. Saw there were great combos on the website for legs, fries, and a donut. I ordered on my phone and told Jacob we wanted to eat in store. He immediately got the order going and brought it out to us only a few minutes later. The chicken was huge, hot and fresh along with the fries. And the donuts were great too, not too sweet. Jacob also helped me get cups for water, and checked with everyone in the store to make sure they were good. The store was clean and the trash emptied appropriately. Between the service, quality of food, and the online deals, was a fantastic experience.
Food was fast. Fried chicken was top notch; crunchy, juicy and flavorful (spicy and Korean BBQ). Bulgogi fries were the bite of the night. Chicken katsu was solid (wife said the rice was average). Even the plain fries were solid.
The drumsticks were juicy and flavorful. It has a nice crunch of the batter. I wish they had dipping sauces or at least hot sauce. I asked for some but said they didnt have any. The place is small, just few tables, but they do have drive thru. I would come back but not rushing.
Always good !!
The food was good but the serving size shown in the photo on the menu looks much larger than what you actually receive (using the cucumbers for scale). Its a bit deceptive.
Just ordered soy garlic and spicy flavors. Chicken is too dry. Soy garlic is just soy sauce like, salty and not much flavor. Spicy is not a traditional Korean yangnyum chicken flavor, taste like pepper flakes only. So disappointed that I was excited to have some korean chicken. Korean wings I tries at Garam was much better than these. I probably won t be re ordering from Bonchon. Bummer.
Korean BBQ sauce drumsticks are delicious and juicy, pickled radish is boring, the fries are battered and lack flavor. Ill try them again in a few weeks to see if this was just a bad day. Last complaint.... its a Korean fried chicken restaurant with a TV playing Good Charlotte and James Blunt music videos??? Its Korean you should at least have a K-Drama or K-pop playing. Food was meh and the atmosphere wasnt that great.
Food was ready earlier than expected and for how delicious the chicken is it was very reasonably priced. The wings with Korean BBQ sauce are excellent. Crisp exterior and a perfectly cooked, juicy inside. The size of the wings are ideal and the sauce was the perfect balance of spicy and sweet.
This is a fantastic place to enjoy! The food is delicious, the music is great for any KPOP fan, and the atmosphere is chill with a unique artistic style!
This was our first visit. The chicken katsu, and Bonchon bowl were very good. The potstickers delicious, kimchi coleslaw a pleasant surprise, the Korean donuts amazing!!!! I had the soy garlic sauce on my chicken and loved it! Looking forward to trying other dishes. I only wish it was a larger space. We came mid afternoon as restaurants tend to be less crowded, and can accommodate wheelchairs easier. If it had been busier we would not have been able make it work.
*Suggest buying your food to-go* A little overhyped. The food is pretty good. The wings were under sauced. The service was mediocre. I think there was a bit of language barrier when ordering? The place is very small, and seating feels tight and congested. Trying to move around to fill your drink up or go use the restroom is very awkward. Overall, this place was OKAY but would not be a go-to spot for me.
SO GOOD! Literally some of the BEST chicken I ve had in a long time. Also I was expecting generic fries but OOOOO they are delicious! I usually go to Korean sit down places so this was a nice surprise! Very clean and very fast service! Will be going a lot in the future!
