Bonchon - Springfield

Amazing food. Wings are phenomenal. Bao is on point. Bulgogi is delish. Love their donut dessert!

A friend decided this was the best place to try Korean Fried Chicken for the first time. She had the Mixed Lunch Special ($14.99) with Pickled Radish. Another friend had the Corn Dog ($4.99), which was nice and crunchy, but had no dog or corn, just mozzarella in a potato crust. Seasoned fries were $7.99. I had the Chicken Sandwich ($13.99) with fries. No room for dessert. No problem getting the volume lowered on the background music.

The other day, me and my husband explored a new Korean restaurant called Bonchon. We ordered two items: Chicken Katsu and Udon Noodle Soup. Unfortunately, the Chicken Katsu didn’t impress us. It looked nice, but the inside wasn’t juicy or flavorful ,just very regular and lacked the richness we expected. The Udon Noodle Soup was also quite average, with a simple broth and nothing that really stood out. The place had a clean and casual vibe, and the service was okay, but overall, the food didn’t meet our expectations. If you’re craving bold Korean flavors, this might not be the first place to check out.

Always love coming to this BonChon, the quality is always consistently good! The strips are very tasty, always love getting the soy garlic, but it's cool to see them adding new flavors over the years. Service is pretty quick, food comes out at a good pace, and the waiters are very attentive and check in plentifully.

Very very clean store. Staffs are always helpful, friendly and professional. WOWED with their service and time management. Foods are yummy and fresh.

So, I’ve actually been to Korea, and Bon Chon’s chicken is just as authentic. So I’ve eaten Bon Chon, but this was my first time ever sitting down and eating at the restaurant. Boy, if you ever get a chance take some time and eat the food fresh. They even offer dipping sauces. I never knew. The atmosphere and service at the Springfield location was top notch. My daughter and I had a wonderful time.

Ordered takeout for one yangyeom and one regular. The sauce was perfect and delicious. The regular fried chicken was insanely crispy and seasoned well. Ordered bulgogi fries and they were okay. Will definitely be coming back for more korean fried chicken!
