" Bonchon is my number one spot for Korean fried chicken when I'm in the mood for something crispy and scrumptious. I particularly enjoy their happy hour deals. The employees are super nice, and their cheerful demeanor makes the experience enjoyable. I'd say the only downside is that it can get loud when it's busy, but aside from that, I absolutely love this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" What I appreciate about Bonchon is their consistency in quality. The chicken wings are always crispy and packed with flavor, especially when you opt for the spicy option. The portion sizes are great too! I always leave feeling satisfied. The only downside is that the dining area sometimes gets quite crowded, making it a bit noisy, but overall, it's a great place to enjoy a meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bonchon has been my favorite place for Korean fried chicken for years! Their flavors never get old, and I love how they offer different sauces. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, perfect for a family night out. They also have great lunch specials, making it affordable. I highly recommend their soy garlic wings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Bonchon after hearing a lot about it, but to be honest, it didn't live up to my expectations. The wings were a bit dry and lacked the juiciness I was hoping for. The side of fries was okay; they seemed frozen rather than made fresh. On the positive side, the staff was very sweet and accommodating during our visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love Bonchon! Their fried chicken is to die for! During my last visit, I ordered the half and half combo which was extremely generous for the price. I also tried the kimchi fried rice and was pleasantly surprised by its flavor. The service was very friendly, and I appreciate how quickly they served us despite the busy dinner hour. This is my go-to place whenever I crave Korean fried chicken! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Bonchon during lunch and ordered the spicy chicken wings and a side of fries. The wings were good, but they didn’t have the intense flavor I expected. The fries were just average—definitely not hand-cut. The service was fine, but I felt a bit rushed due to the lunch crowd. I'll have to return to try different dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just finished my meal at Bonchon, and I'm still raving about it! I had the half & half chicken combo and added some bulgogi. The flavors were rich and satisfying, while the portions were more than enough for one. There's nothing better than crispy chicken paired with pickled radish. My only wish is that it wasn’t such a trek for me; otherwise, I’d eat here all the time! " (*Curated Review*)
