Bonchon Fairfield

If you’re a fan of crispy chicken, Bonchon absolutely delivers. This was my first visit, and it made a strong impression right away. The shop looks small from the outside, but once you step in, it’s surprisingly spacious. Clean, well-lit, and nicely laid out. Comfortable for dining in. We were seated immediately. Our hostess, Amber, was very patient and helpful since it was our first time. We decided to order a little bit of everything, and that was the right move. We went with the five-piece drumsticks, split half soy garlic and half Korean BBQ. The chicken is double-fried, which gives it an incredible crunch on the outside while staying juicy inside. The soy garlic was savory with a touch of sweetness and very well balanced. The Korean BBQ had more heat and bold flavor, coated in a sticky, sweet-spicy glaze that keeps you going back for more. The meal came with coleslaw, which honestly surprised me. I’m not usually a coleslaw person, but this one worked. Lightly sweet, creamy, and refreshing. It paired well with the chicken and helped cut through the richness. We also ordered the seasoned fries, and they were excellent. Crispy, well-seasoned, and topped with garlic, parmesan, and parsley that actually added flavor instead of just looking good. Easily one of the better fry sides I’ve had with fried chicken. Everything came out hot, fresh, and clearly made with care. If you’ve never had Korean fried chicken before, Bonchon is a great place to start. I’ll definitely be back.

Ordered Popeyes on DoorDash and after an extended wait I got a message saying my order was cancelled due to "issues with the store". Lucky me because I still had a fried chicken craving and found this option on DoorDash. I ordered the 15 drumsticks with Korean BBQ sauce. Sooo good!! Sweet with a little heat, the chicken still had crunch even though it was covered in sauce. The meat was flavorful and juicy. So so good.

I adore coming to Bonchon. Each time I visit the experience is wonderful. Food is always on point. The service is very polite and friendly. I’ve never had a bad time. The prices are excellent. Food is so good it’s hard to get just one item, hence why I make sure to get my fill of as much as possible. Thank you for your service and great food. Namaste 🙏.

I definitely enjoyed myself. The menu is a lot different then I remember. But that was BC (before covid). However the fried chicken they are famous for are definitely still there. I love the soy garlic and the sweet crunchy. This time round I got the half and half. Spicy and sweet. I also had a slamming Watermelon Margarita

I went for lunch with a friend about a week ago and will not be returning. The preset plates and glasses were dirty, and the table was sticky. It was genuinely unsanitary. We initially overlooked the plates, but when I noticed something inside my water glass, I brought it to the server’s attention. She was polite and offered to bring new ones, but then said that she couldn’t find other plates (what?). We barely touched our food due to how uncomfortable we felt, but stayed to catch up. In hindsight, we should have left, but we didn’t want to penalize the server for what was clearly a management issue. I contacted the restaurant through their website before posting this review to give them an opportunity to respond, but received no reply. I’m leaving this review to caution others and to alert management to a serious cleanliness problem that needs immediate attention.

Food was delicious. Got the chicken Korean tacos which were flavorful. Girls had the potstickers and soy garlic strips. Also delicious!

4.5/5 I’ve eaten at Bon Chon multiple times before, and overall love their food. For both take out and dine-in, the food comes really quickly. I don’t have a pic of the Japchae, but that’s probably my favorite dish here so far. The plain Udon noodle soup I had today was delicious, very flavorful, and the noodles were perfect and just the right balance of soft and chewy.
