" Bonchon holds a special place in my heart. Their chicken wings are unbeatable in taste and crunch. The garlic sauce is my personal favorite, so I order it almost every time. The staff is polite and eager to help, although I’ve occasionally experienced longer wait times. That said, I’ve been returning for several years because the food here keeps me satisfied. Give it a try, especially if you love fried chicken with great flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a foodie, I've been around to many places, and Bonchon McKee is up there in terms of fried chicken. The way they flavor their wings sets them apart from the rest. I find myself getting both spicy and soy garlic every time! The distinguished crunch that remains after being tossed in sauce is delightful. I've tried other items on their menu but keep returning for the wings. Service can be hit or miss—sometimes on point, but other times you feel neglected. I lean towards takeout next time I’m there! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a poorer experience this time versus previous visits. The wings were cold when they arrived at the table. I expressed my concern to the staff, and while they quickly offered to replace them, I still found the portion sizes for the sides just didn't justify the price. The atmosphere was bustling with energy, great for a casual gathering, but food quality must not drop even during busy hours. Hoping this is just a hiccup! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Bonchon McKee was fantastic, and their chicken wings truly stole the show. I went with a few friends, and we ordered multiple items. Each dish had its unique flavor, and the wings were beyond excellent! The only downside was the service, which was slower than expected – this is perhaps because the restaurant was bustling with guests. I appreciate that they maintain authentic recipes. I’ll be back soon for another round of chicken fix! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bonchon McKee delivered on its promise of amazing fried chicken! I enjoyed every bite of my meal. Their garlic soy wings had the perfect mix of crunch and flavor that kept me coming back for more. The service was alright; I think they were slightly understaffed, which affected how quickly we were served. I liked the ambiance, though it felt quite busy. Still, I plan to return, especially for those incredible wings! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience with Bonchon was pretty good, though it had its ups and downs. The chicken was stellar – juicy and flavorful – but we faced long wait times. The place was lively, and the decor is cute. The service ranged from attentive to forgetful, and at times I felt overlooked. All in all, the food definitely wins me over. I'm excited for my next visit, hoping for an improvement in service! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to try Bonchon for a quick lunch, and I was quite pleased. The wings were deliciously coated and had that perfect crunch outside, juicy inside. The service, however, left much to be desired; the staff seemed overwhelmed, yet they were helpful. The environment was a bit cramped, which made it hard to fully enjoy the meal, but I would still recommend Bonchon for anyone looking for authentic Korean flavors. Remember to try the spicy sauce if you want a kick! " (*Curated Review*)
