Second time in a row that the cole slaw is spoiled. Hire employees that can recognize when the cole slaw has turned. If you ate cole slaw from here, chances are you ate rotten cole slaw. Beware! read more

I just can't quit those perfect crispy chicken strips with the soy-garlic sauce. The service is friendly and did i mention how amazingly good those chicken strips are????? What a great addition to the Kentlands restaurant lineup. Happy to have them in the 'hood. read more

Server Allison went above and beyond waiting our table of 8 last night - starting with a cheerful greeting and throughout the order and meal-service. She took care to offer recommendations, as we were first time diners at this restaurant and were curious about vegetarian food-choices. The tofu potstickers and tofu Bibimbap were outstanding in flavor and presentation. My order of Jasmine tea came in a traditional Korean kettle and cup, which kept the beverage fragrant and hot till the very end of my meal! This place appears like a fast-food restaurant, but surprised us with its welcoming atmosphere, personalized service and delightful presentation of the food items we ordered. I couldn't put in a good word for Allison with the Manager, as he'd left early for the day, so hoping this Yelp Review reaches him for the superb service and food at this restaurant location! read more

I mean the food isn't bad. It's like you know average Korean friend chicken. Definetly would be nice to have more flavors. But the only downside is this mans really corrected me and then pronounced tteokbokki wrong. All good tho he just didn't know ig read more

Zero flexibility on bone in and boneless in the combo meal had to cancel the order. Very disappointing for frequent customer.

Wings are off the hook. Spicy is no joke and the garlic is amazing. I have never eaten in restaurant always carry out.

my partner and i were in the area picking something up and decided hey why not take advantage of the options here versus in frederick. we wanted wings and didn't want bww or anything along those lines. we have never tried this place and it was definitely quite the surprise. the app we chose to go with was the pork buns, the last place we had any was in dc and honestly i loved those buns. i'm so glad i found a much closer place for delicious buns. the location was empty for a friday night we dined in and they had a nice sized bar as well. the wings were crispy on the outside and extremely juicy in the inside we did half and half: soy garlic and buffalo. they mean it when it says cooked twice! we also ordered the chicken katsu 8/10! would definitely go again once we're nearby again. read more

Bonchon Gaithersburg - pork buns and their seasoned fries - Korean Near Me - Gaithersburg, Maryland

Since they closed the Bonchon in Frederick I try to get something from here every chance I can. Got two lunch specials of the soy garlic wings and fries. Prices have gone up but so has the prices of chicken, rent and wages. As long as they keep the quality I'll keep coming back. read more

I'm a huge fan of Bonchon! I love their food. Unfortunately their prices are now too high and I likely will not be returning. For what you pay there you could go to a nice sit down sushi restaurant or get higher quality food elsewhere. I'm not paying 60 bucks for chicken strips and fried rice. Sorry. See ya on the other side Bonchon! It was good while it lasted. read more

I had no idea that Bonchon had a location in Gaithersburg and seems like it is fairly new according to other reviews. I was in the area so decided to place a quick pick up order. The dining room is closed but they do offer curbside and in-store pickup. My food was ready in about 10 minutes but my order was unfortunately wrong. There was a mix up in payment when I went in to pick up my order which wasn't a big deal since they fixed it right away but because of the mix-up, I didn't have a chance to check to make sure my food was correct (even though the cashier ensured me it was but in times like this I don't feel comfortable opening food in the restaurant and just trusted him). I had ordered a 6 wing/3 drumstick combo and got the 5 drumstick combo instead. I know in the end it's just chicken on a bone but I was really just craving wings. read more

Great Bonchon. Love that you can order online and do curbside pickup. The chicken is all you want and expect from Bonchon - crispy and flavorful. The spicy is really spicy, but in a good way. We also tried the tenders and really loved them - they were juicy and, well, tender. A go-to for us. read more

My order was ready when I arrived, earlier than was scheduled fir pickup. Very impressive considering I ordered after 9pm and close to 45 minutes before the restaurant closed. read more

Quick and friendly service! Environment was clean and the Food was good as expected from bonchon!

It was ok. We had high expectations. Ordered 30 wings and ddeukbokki. Wings were eh. The ones in Germantown are much better. It was sub-par. Ddeukbokki was ok... but not sure if I would order again. I think Germantown bonchon tastes better. I really was hoping it was better as we were really excited that there was a bonchon opening so close to us. read more

This spot in Gaithersburg was worth the wait. I ordered here for Super bowl sunday and I called ahead to make sure I was ready to pick up my chicken on time. The staff was really friendly and was able to help me get my order ready on time. The wait time they gave me was longer than usual but it's totally understandable with the high volume of orders that were coming for Super Bowl. When i got there, they seemed to be really busy but was still able to help me. Overall the wait was worth it. They still continue to live up to their double fried chicken standard and i was happy that I was able to bring back some Bonchon chicken to my family. Great spot and great service. Thank you bonchon! read more

I seldom leave reviews for food establishments unless the overall service experience is exceptionally poor, rarely over the quality of the food itself. In this case, I ordered delivery through Postmates so I don't have any experience with this location's level of service. This was my first time ordering Bonchon but it has come recommended as an adequate fast food Korean option. I ordered the Japchae and opted not to add extra bulgogi for $6 because I wanted to see their normal portion first. The portion of the dish itself was generous and the flavors were okay but there were maybe six pieces of bulgogi in the dish which was disappointing since I had a taste for bulgogi and could've ordered a basic noodle dish with veggies from many places. Perhaps this was just a fluke. In any event, the dish is $20 before tax and I'm not sure what $6 worth of extra bulgogi amounts to, but if what I received is a typical portion, $6 to add more protein would simply be a rip off. read more

Ordered Fried Dumplings, spicy soy chicken wings and beef bulgogi Flavorless, bland, tasteless...basically not very good. Great location, but not so great food. read more

wow are the spicy wings hot, but delicious! I also got the steak with noodles asian dish and it was also delicious, excellent sauce and flavor. A perk is they have our favorite beer, Lagunitas on tap. the male server was great, the female not as good but we will go back! read more

Of all the Bonchon Chicken franchises, This one is the best in my area. I've been to Rockville, Arlington, Hyattsville and, Navy Yard. The chef who cooks at this location should give the cooks at the other locations lessons. The cook at the Market Street location knows how to keep the chicken tender and juicy while having the perfect crispy texture outside. And, they are consistent. I no longer live in the area but I drive out of my way when I'm in the mood (twice a month) for Bonchon. I wish they had frequent visitor rewards, I would visit more often. THIS IS WHERE YOU GO IF YOU WANT THE BEST BONCHON EXPERIENCE! read more

Ordered the small 10pc tenders, salmon avocado ball, and fries. You get a choice of coleslaw or radish with the chicken, and I ended up picking radish. It's a nice alternative to rice. The chicken was flavorful, crispy, and fresh. My favorite flavor is the soy garlic, but they had a new flavor that wasn't up my alley.The salmon avocado ball tasted amazing. The fish part of the ball had some slight crunch, which added more enjoyment to the dish. I got a fresh batch of the season fries so it wasn't as crunchy as I like, but seasoning was good. Also, to my surprise, they serve some alcoholic drinks (soju and beer). They also have tvs in the dining area that were playing sport channels so it vibes kinda like buffalo wild wings. I also ordered from the tutti frutti (froyo)/ bubble tea area connected to the Bonchon building, and I'm a fan of the drink I got. I can't remember the name, but it was a fruit tea with foam. The fruit tea tasted refreshing and not overly sweet. The foam had a unique taste, like a cheesy taste that somehow ended up pairing well with the fruit tea despite seeming like a weird combo. It definitely tastes different compared to other foams I've tried from other bubble tea places. Definitely worth a try. read more

Last month was the first time. It was really tasty. Unfortunately, they didn't remember to give us the rice that we ordered. When I rang, they told me to go back (5 miles each way) and since that was not going to work they said they would give me rice the next time I went back. So, with THAT order, they didn't include the chopsticks or any napkins. I then ordered delivery and the chicken was really dried out. They also forgot the fries! I have yet to get a single order done correctly. Wish that they were more organized and paid attention to each order. It is two stars because the first time, the food was amazing. It has been downhill since then. read more

I'm not sure if it's because it is new or the times we are living in but the bulgogi had no flavor, wasn't tender, and they forgot the rice.

I had visited this location a few days ago and it was nothing short of amazing. The quick service, remarkable staff, and great tasting food. I will definitely be stopping by this branch in the near future for more of their large spicy and soy garlic wing combo. The wings tasted amazing and all of my guests had asked for more and more! Although it would be nice if we were able to dine in, they seemed to have gotten the delivery and packaging down to the tee as all the wings were hot and crispy when they had arrived at my place (via doordash) read more

Went to the Kentlands Gaithersburg,md store on Saturday, August 13th, and the wings was terrible. So salty, like someone had poured a box of salt on them. I told the waiter a couple of times. He said he will tell them. He should have offered me a new dish or a discount. I had to take my fork and take all the skin off the chicken and that's my favorite part. I was not happy. I started feeling mistreated. Maybe if my skin was different, I would have been offered something. I was expecting too much. read more

I went there with my sister because we LOVEEE spicy wings and we ordered online, then at the register we added a side of fries, while we waited we were looking inside the kitchen and unfortunately we saw that the packer wasn't using his mask and also he wiped his nose and didn't wash his hands and continued to pack food, we cancel the order and of course we're not going back. This is a safety issue and it shouldn't happen. read more

The breading is thick and not up to par as other Bonchon locations. Other customer made the same observation. Hope they fix it soon. Otherwise the family won't go back read more

Visited this location for the first time today and did not expect my experience to be this bad. Food was great but I've never had such bad customer service. Was not greeted when my friend and I walked in, nobody was interested in assisting us (not busy at all btw only 3 people sitting at the bar, not a single table was seated) we walked up to the counter and said we wanted to dine in. Waitress turned around and says how many? Takes us to the table not friendly at all, ask us are we ready to order as soon as we sat down. I asked about a few menu items and received answers so dry. I would've ordered more but this really killed the mood. When we got our food she didn't ask us if we need anything didn't come back and even ask if everything was okay. Mind you we were 1 of 2 tables in there. We noticed a few more people walk in behind us and everyone was greeted and serviced nicely, didn't think this was a racist establishment so I was really annoyed. Fast forward as I'm still eating the waitress hands the check to my friend and asks if we need boxes..... as we're still eating and the place doesn't close for another hour and a half. My friend said we were not done yet and continued to eat. 20 minutes go by nobody returns waitress is sitting behind the counter hanging out, we got so fed up waiting we walked up to the counter with our check and paid there. Regretting even leaving the 15% tip at this point because I was so upset. Sucks because I actually enjoy Korean fried chicken and this totally ruined the meal for me to the point where I'm taking my time to write this review. This was on 10/29 around 8pm server was Olivia. So disappointing as restaurant owners to get treated like this at an establishment we enjoy because we walked in with our sweatpants and didn't look the part. read more

Horrible customer service, very disappointing experience for my family and me. My 8yo brother has allergies with certain ingredients in their fried chicken, so we brought some food for him to eat. It was only a bit of food for a child, and there were 5 of us. Walked in and we were completely honest that we had outside food. We immediately explained the situation, that he had allergies and asked if it was ok to have the food with us. The waiter was immediately hostile and stated that he had told us many times that outside food and drinks were not allowed. We were confused because we rarely frequent this place and we'd never been told this before. We tried to tell him that he'd never said this to us before (and that we'd never even seen him before) but he was incredibly defensive and even told us to never come back. Very disappointing because it ruined our dinner and was a horrible experience, especially for the kids. Not only did he not accommodate for a child with allergies, he also accused us of bringing in outside food many times, even though we've never seen him before and we haven't even been here in over half a year. This was on July 16 around 6:30pm with a waiter named Hong (he says he's the owner). Terrible customer service. read more

The staff are friendly, and very helpful. I got large soy and spicy flavor chicken wings. Wings are very crispy and delicious. Definitely gonna come back again. read more

I'm a little underwhelmed. Friendly service. Didn't seem like the wings had enough sauce. Zucchini fries not bad but small portion for $8. Sliders with spicy mayonnaise were good. Glad I tried it. read more

I ordered food through drive thru at Germantown location and instructed me to wait at the parking lot and waited there for almost half an hour. Called them and asked where is my food and she said can't find me. How big is their parking lot that they can't find me??? Asked me to go back to the window and pick up the food. Went back and she didn't even say sorry just handed me the food. Really poor customer service. So, left the restaurant and stopped to a parking lot to eat and guess what no spoons or fork either. How can I eat it with out the fork? Wow it made my day!!!!!! Never to order there anymore!!! read more

I've placed orders here many times, the food there is always good. The spicy chicken wings definitely are my favorite. Will be back again

The foods there is very impressive, stuffs are kind and nice we will back again for sure

I was suprised to see a bonchon open in gaithersburg, so I went ahead and ordered to go. I was not disapointed. The chicken was savory and delicious, along with the crispiness! Overall I will be coming again! read more
