    Small mixed half and half soy garlic and spicy
    Chuq Y.

    We don't have a bonchon where we live so we jumped on the opportunity to visit one during a recent trip to Orlando. We were the first people in the restaurant and were seated promptly. When we tried to order food, they were out of most of our first choices, such as wine and the sake cocktail. They were also out of edamame. The chicken was as good as I remember and we probably ate too much, but if you can't have the entire menu, I won't come back. Or at least let us know what you're out of when we're seated. The decor was nice with the names of many of their other lvoyon the wall. I think I counted 13 other locations I've been to? I'll stick to some of the locations in the DC metro as they seem to have a better grasp on their inventory.

    Chicken Fried Rice
    Shawn R.

    Worth the drive. Every time around Orlando International AirPort it's a must stop. Food is excellent with great flavors. Good service. Place is clean. Favorite flavor is the Korean bbq sauce.

    Lychee Soju

    Food was delish! We had the sampler plate(big enough for 2) specially if you have appetizers which was amazing I was able to taste a little bit of everything. We try the corn dog, wings tacos, fried rice lots of soju they serve beers too. I would have to say everything was good I would stick with the wings we try different sauces all good, probably the best out of everything we tried. Service was good. We had a big group so I know it's always hard for the servers but food came out pretty fast and we didn't have any issues. Ambiance they accommodate big groups, we had a group of 6 adults and 6 kids and we were seated right away. It's a bit of a quiet place so it's not super lively for bday celebrations more for a chill time.

    Drumstick combo Meal

    This chicken is out of this world unbelievably amazing I have truly never tasted anything like this before and I was shocked For only $11.99 you can get BonChon's 3 chicken drumstick combo, which comes with fries and a Korean fried donut. The chicken was so flavorful, crispy, fresh, crunchy, tasty, with the perfect amount of sauce and a wonderful flavor. The Korean fried donut was so soft, yummy, and it was paired perfectly with this delicious sweet sauce that tastes just like sweetened condensed milk. The fries were amazing as well so crispy, fried to perfection with the right amount of salt. The staff was great I had Ana amazing server when u first walked in I didn't know that it was an actual sit down restaurant I thought it was like a McDonald's but it's way better than that I thought. If you are ever in the area or a place that has a BonChon, you must immediately stop in and eat thank you guys for amazing food and service I greatly enjoyed it

    So this establishment came recommended by my beautiful wife knowing well that I love chicken in any form or format, Korean fried chicken? Let's give it a try pulled up around 1:30 PM entering the establishment only one table in the building surprising at this time of the day right next to the airport, I thought I'd be busy, but whatever quieter the better, point entry greeted immediately by the hostess, who was the bartender and our server, seated and the drink order was taken immediately, Bud Light and specialty flavored lemonade, drinks arrived in three minutes, took our order, started off with Korean tacos, and Takoyaki fritters, appetizers arrive in eight minutes, nice presentation food smoking hot and looking great! The taste absolutely fantastic on the tacos, while not a fan of octopus I do like conch fritters, very similar and very tasty! Five minutes after the appetizer main course arrive myself having the six piece extra crispy chicken with Parmesan fries, my wife, the bacon kimchi udon with fried egg, I gotta tell you I got some fried chicken in my life but this was on some other level! Crunch factor flavor factor just a poppin! Tried the wife's kimchi udon absolutely fantastic tremendous flavor with a little bit of a kick! Server came by after three minutes to check on the quality of the food, which was a nice touch, this was a great experience and I plan on going back to this place within the next week. That's how good the food was if you're in the area check this place out I have spoken..

    Bimbimbop Bulgogi
    Elayne D.

    Came to Bonchon to eat quickly before a concert and honestly this was a really good spot. Loved the menu so we decided the try it. Our server, Serenity, was so nice and so quick which we appreciated because we were tight on time. We had the Bimbimbop with bulgogi and that was amazing, we added some of the chili sauce they gave us and it was perfection. The fried chicken bao buns hit the spot. They were super juicy and worth the calories. Finally we ended with the street corn and although it was a tiny portion it was delicious. I wasn't sure what I was expecting because I'm very used to Mexican street corn but this was equally delicious. The flavor profile was slightly different and it hit the spot. I cannot wait to try the one here in Miami.

    When I first walked in to Bonchon Chicken I was surprised to find out it was a sit down restaurant with a bar. For some reason I thought it was more of fast casual dining but they sat us down and our server went straight to work. We ordered the Bulgogi Fries as an appetizer. The Bulgogi meat had good flavor but was a little salty, the fries were crispy, and the cheese and sauce paired well with everything. I just wish the cheese was more melted. The Chicken House Fried had a unique good flavor, it doesn't taste like your typical fried rice which I really enjoyed. It also has pretty big pieces of chicken in it. Next, we ordered the Chicken Wings in Bbq sauce with a side of coleslaw. The coleslaw was ok but the wings were crispy and super meaty. The bbq sauce had a good flavor I just wish they put more sauce on them. Overall the service was great and the food had unique flavors not like most Asian restaurants.

    Moe A.

    empty restaurant over priced food and it was basic taste girl at the counter wasn't much helpful and ended up ordering the wrong item since I never been there don't recommend it at all fries was $6.49 barely touching bottom of the bag such a disappointment ended up spending $65 more then half of the food went into trash

    Pomegranate lemonade

    The food was delicious! Got their vegetable pot stickers, fries and pomegranate lemonade. My friend had their chicken wings and the bulgogi fries. We both loved our meals. Our waitress was so nice and helpful. The restaurant itself is sleek and artsy.

    Korean BBQ wings with pickled radish
    Ri M.

    Out of Japchae which I came for on an early Friday night. Ordered the Bibimbap instead which did not make an impression. Wings were good but not as good, half of the wings were lacking and only partially sauced. Side of pickled radish was bland, barely pickled and tasted watered down. Did they run of vinegar and added water? Tonight's visit did not satisfy my craving. Server didnt come back to refill water till after the meal and till after we flagged her to come over. Clean casual ambiance with finally better lighting than other times I've been. Outside sink available to wash hands was convenient im case restroom was occupied.

    Wings fresh and flavorful, I got the Korean bbq and it was great. Nice ambiance quick service also.

    Japchae, bugolgi bibimbap, chicken wings, seafood fried rice
    Angelina A.

    This place is conveniently located near the airport, so right after a long flight.. Korean chicken wings and soju? Yes, please! It wasn't too packed for a summer Saturday evening either so service was quick. We got the chicken wings, which actually was a pretty big serving, crunchy, sweet Japchae was good. Can't go wrong with bugolgi bibimbap either. We also got a bottle of lychee soju which was light and super refreshing.

    10 Strips half Spicy (they are) and half Soy Garlic
    Joe S.

    Bonchon has changed! I first ate here prior to Covid and have been to the Waterford location, but on the last visit, I was disappointed. The coworker I was with didn't think it was bad, but he didn't know how awesome it used to be. We decided on the 10 strips and got half soy garlic and half spicy. Let me say the Spicy were WAY spicier than I remember, so I did some digging and I think they used to be called Sweet and Spicy. Apparently they changed one of their signature sauces. Bummer as he couldn't eat them, so I was stuck with them. The strips were also kinda small and skinny so I feel they are cutting super thin pieces of chicken And previously, they had some pickled daikon radish side that was awesome for cooling down the tongue in between pieces of chicken. Instead, they gave you Cole slaw which isn't really a good shareable thing. We also order the Shrimp Shumai which was good, but it wasn't really hot. It came out rather quickly (as did the tenders) so I'm not sure how much they're pre-cooking vs. reheating these days. It used to take a lot longer to get the food, now it seemed almost too fast to be fresh. Service was terrible too. We went around noon on a weekday and there were 2 other tables and the waitress barely visited our table, which is a huge no-no when serving spicy food. Drink refills please! The Soy Garlic sauce was still good and prices are still pretty competitive considering the changes over the past 3-4 years. I'd probably give it one more try to see if it was a fluke. But always be suspicious if your food comes out Superly Duperly Fast.

So upon entry we were greeted and wished a Happy Anniversary from the hostess and then again from each person who interacted with us. I always appreciate attention to detail and small things that take notice. Our server and assistants were fantastic. There was never a time or moment to have even a crumb on the table that they weren't cleaning off. We both ordered the Moss as our cocktail, and my husband prefers a mezcal so he switched the regular tequila for one of the many they had to offer. He was also excited to learn new brands that most other places don't have. I enjoy a light and refreshing cocktail and that's exactly what Moss was with the cucumber and yuzu was perfect for this hot summer evening to start with. For appetizers we had the Nami nuggets which were fantastic, sliced thin, extra crunchy with lemon and dipping sauce, literally the perfect bite. My husband had the octopus (I'm not a fan), but he said it was the best octopus he'd ever had! We shared the lobster and fried rice for dinner and honestly we took a bunch home for leftovers because it was so much food! 2.5 pounds of lobster in total between the cracked shells and what's added to the fried rice. At the end we just went with the dessert they offered us for free because we were stuffed and couldn't eat another bite. We both tried it and agreed we weren't fans of lemongrass ice cream but we appreciated the thought. The pineapple compote and crumble were excellent though. Overall, Nami is a fantastic date and special occasion restaurant. Excellent food and service. We'll be back in the fall when the king crab comes back!
