Review Bonchon - San Jose

Neda Mandegaran

Pros: very polite and attentive server, clean space, very spacious with nice pictures on the walls, very accommodating with orders, garlic fried chicken was good, korean taco was great. Seasoned fries were fresh and yummy Cons: spicy fried chicken was tasteless version of hot that just burns, steamed dumpling tasted bad (def. Not recommended), Tip: pickled radish is SWEAT, not sour.

Their chicken wings are so crispy and tasty!! My kids specifically love their soy garlic wings and cheese dduckbokki! So delicious 😋 I also like thier seasoned French fries. Looks like they have new ownership and the people are so nice and the food got definitely better than before. Great hangout spot to watch sports. You need chicken and beer!

Dude, bro, get to Bonchon Chicken right now. The fried chicken was excellent, I got spicy which was not too hot and very tasty. I also got pork buns, they were excellent. The tacos were much larger and I heard they were good. Couldn’t even finish all three. Look, if you like chicken and you haven’t tried Bonchon yet, what are you doing? Big pieces perfectly fried Lightly sauced and just straight fire!!! (As the kids would say) it’s lit! Ok see you there soon!

Thia was my first time here, and it definitely won't be my last! We ordered apps to eat there and ordered our entrees to go, since we were taking food to our friend. Bryan and Jacob were the FOH servers. They were very knowledgeable about the menu. We got the suggested beer and were very pleased...which prompted me to buy a 4 pack from their selection of craft beer to take home. The food was on point-good job BOH, nailed it! The service was excellent. I hope the owner sees this, you have an excellent crew! Can't wait to go back!

Incredibly tasty chicken. It's not just the sauce, the meat itself is perfectly tender, juicy and delicious. The bolgogi fries were a little too spicy for my taste, but that's a matter of taste, you might like it that way. Kimchi was spiced just right, and I was surprised how much I liked the pickled turnips.

Quite popular Korean fried chicken restaurant, also offering a few rice and noodles dishes, of course, beers too. The order took quite some time to serve, though they did apologize for the delay. The chicken wings and drumsticks were surprisingly large. They were fried crispy outside and not dry inside, coated with soy or spicy sauce. The soy flavored were sweeter, but saltier. Personally, I prefer the spicy sauce which had just the right kick and not too sweet! Excellent coleslaws!

First time here. Was looking for a new local place to order chicken wings and this is it! They were super delicious. I wasn't sure which sauce to order as you could choose from the soy garlic, spicy or half and half. We chose the soy garlic sauce and it was really good, looking forward to trying the half and half next time as I think that should be a nice balance for my taste buds. We also ordered chicken strips, again very nice, meaty, not overly battered. The one thing we appreciated was that the oil used seemed to be very fresh and didn't have an aftertaste that many places do. Staff was also very friendly and welcoming.

I love this place. Amazing taste and great customer service . The lady the worked and helped take my order on two different occasions was amazing. She was very friendly and very efficient with managing all the orders . Lots of seating and good parking .

First visit @ Bonchon and we absolutely enjoyed the food and the staff! We ordered the Japchae, it's the best I've ever eaten! I have co-workers who are Korean and they bring their version of it and doesn't compare! It was sweet and spicy, plenty if vegetables, meat, and noodles. There was so many levels of flavor. Also, we had the soy garlic wings, we couldn't get enough! We ordered a small, which comes with 5 or 6 wings and ordered another order one after eating 1 wing. It was crispy and juicy inside! The soy garlic sauce was so delicious. We will definitely be back!

Very similar but juuuuust a little different from the Bonchon Chicken that was on Newark St in Jersey City. The menu is a little different and this place offers table service, plus it's a little bigger. I'd go back, it was pretty good. The pot stickers are the same but some of the dishes offered are a little different. This place also offers beer, soju and wine.

My first time here. I was not disappointed. Half and half on 24 boneless wings, pork buns and tacos. All were delicious. The server gave me a sample of kimchee, it was great. Don't miss out on the pickled radishes either.

Appetizers were 👌💯, chicken is crispy and flavor is great! Spicy is definitely hot!

Great chicken, all varieties are equally good so you can't go wrong. Good service. The fried rice is great. The ambiance is modern and clean. This is a chain restaurant and pretty consistent.

Really friendly staff. Love the fried chicken, especially the spicy one. Also ordered Bulgogi, but it was just ok. Not very authentic. Overall still ok.
