    Bonchon is across from the West Farms Mall, in an open air plaza between a pet store and Trader Joe's. I book marked it because I heard about their chicken - my gracious the chicken was amazing! Moist and insanely crispy, it is my new standard for fried chicken. I got the classic crunch, and it had a coating that reminded me of chips, but only added to the flavor. I would highly recommend (and have) to fried chicken fans. The street corn had a great cheese flavor, and the fries went well with ranch. The mopo hot dog I loved, although I dislike balsamic enough I wish I had left it off. Amazing cheese pull though! My server was very patient and kind, thank you Michelle! There were a lot of people coming in and out for pickup, but it didn't effect the ambiance in the dining room. They were very separate.

    MoPo Corndog

    National brand version of Korean food Came here because we wanted cake but also needed actual food as well. Opted for Bonchon because it was close. Got a corndog and some chicken tenders,wait time was not too long, and we dug in. Wings were similar to wings stop. Decent quality chicken, heavy batter and lackluster sauce. The wings did have some spice, so that wasn't lost. Serviceable for the price. The corndog was a giant mozzarella stick with a smattering of potato pieces. Not a corn dog in the traditional sense, but not bad either. Wait staff were helpful but very busy. Lots of to-go business bogging down the kitchen. As a food option, it's an option. Go in with basic expectations and a lot of liberties and you'll have a functional meal.

    Went to bonchon in west Hartford with my daughter and boyfriend for a late Sunday lunch. It was a bit busy but after about 10 minutes we were seated at a booth. Looking at the menu they offer a delectable assortment of Asian foods. The table is pre set with a plate and a napkin with a cute pocket with a fork inserted into it. It was a bit of a wait for our server to come to that table. We all chose to go with what Bonchon is known for..the wings. Each of us got wings with different sauces but we all chose the seasoned fries. The food arrived after about ten minutes with the fries arriving first in a cute basket with checkered paper underneath. Good portion and super crispy. Nice flavor. Next were the wings. Again a good portion with a super crispy texture and seasoned with a perfect amount of sauce coating every wing beautifully. Everything you want in wings. I absolutely loved the crispy picked dikon radish that came with the wings. I also tried the Cole slaw that was also really good. So many restaurants have terrible Cole slaw so I was happy with this offering. The food was really good and I would definitely recommend. I do however have two negatives. First is the temperature of the hot water in the rest room. Absolutely dangerous!!! I burned my hands. I spoke to the manager and addressed my concerns but I worry about kids. If I was a child we would be on our way to the hospital. It was that hot. The manager (who was never visible until I asked, hiding in the kitchen) asked if we just turned the hot water valve or if we turned both cold and hot. It shouldn't matter....especially to the board of health! Beware!! The other issue I saw was when the dishwasher came out with clean silverware to reload the service station. All the silverware was upside down with the part you put in your mouth sticking up. This person with no gloves was grabbing the silverware and putting it into the servers station. Let's hope this individual could properly washed his hands that touched my fork/knife/spoon when he used the facilities. Let's hope these problems are addressed!!

    Love me some Bonchon. Their chicken is always so good. Now parking in that lot can be challenging as there are many popular stores near by. This one is near a traders joe. Ordering online makes the process easier. You just drive up and pick up your delicious meal. I ate in the restaurant a few time and the wait staff is always nice. The seating is also comfortable. The food is always great and full of flavor. The chicken always hit and their Spicy is SPICY. I get the soy garlic. I always like the side dish of pickle radish, nice crunch with juicy chicken. Their fried rice is also delicious. If you're at the mall and don't want mall food. This place is a few minutes away.

    Bulgogi bibimbap
    Jim L.

    First time here. We were seated fairly quickly. We both ordered bibimbap. One bulgogi the other spicy chicken. The bulgogi marinade was excellent and the spices on the chicken spot on. This is the first Korean restaurant I've been to in Connecticut that actually achieved the crispy rice on the bottom. So good. I wish their bibimbap included kimchi like many other Korean restaurants include. We also ordered the octopus appetizer that didn't show up until we were halfway through our main dish. And they were not worth the wait, very chewy. The server was friendly, priced as expected.

    Our waitress, Angela was great. We had an appetizer and some hot green tea and jasmine tea. Fresh and delicious with no long wait despite a pretty full house!

    Came back after a little while away. Food here is fun. It doesn't go with my diet but that's what cheat days are for! Service was great tonight. Very attentive. There was only one other guest sitting. The chicken is crispy. Dumplings are great. No heat tonight. Maybe next time. And the donuts are great too! They are light and don't sit like a rock in your gut! Try them!

    Seafood Fried Rice

    I ordered Bonchon through DoorDash and was seriously blown away! Sometimes delivery food doesn't hit the same, but this was chef's kiss from the first bite. I got the Korean Street Corn, Tteokbokki, Seafood Fried Rice, and the Bulgogi Bao Buns--and I loved every single dish. The flavors were bold, savory, and super satisfying. The corn was creamy and just spicy enough. The tteokbokki had that perfect chewy texture and a rich gochujang sauce. The seafood fried rice was packed with flavor and generous portions of shrimp and squid. But the bulgogi bao buns? So tender, sweet, and juicy--I could eat those all day. Packaging was neat, food was still warm when it arrived, and nothing felt soggy or overdone. You can really taste the quality and care even through a delivery app. Highly recommend--can't wait to try it in person next time! #KoreanCravings #BaoLove #BonchonWestHartford

    Bonchon has become one of our favorites when we are in the area for a quick lunch and doesn't break our budget. You can order takeout, but we have only experienced dining in. The staff has always been friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient even when the dining room is busy. The restaurant is clean, has a modern vibe, and low lighting, but the dining area isn't too large. While the restaurant isn't busy, Bonchon is located in the Corbin's Corner plaza which is always packed because of Trader Joe's. You will have to be patient while finding a parking space. Bonchon is one of the few places for my husband can get Korean Fried Chicken while I like to try their spicy dishes. They have a simple wing menu choosing from wings, drumsticks, combo (wings & drumsticks), strips, and boneless with either soy garlic or spicy sauces. It also comes with either pickled radish or coleslaw, we highly recommend the radish. The wings have a nice crunch, flavorful sauces, and the meat is juicy. My personal favorites dishes are the Takoyaki--fried octopus dumpling and Tteokbokki--a spicy stew with fish cakes. When the item is marked as spicy on the menu, Bonchon does not hold back the heat. We also like to get a side of Kimchi to go along with our meals. The extra sides also help cleanse your palate and cool off your mouth while eating the spicy dishes. Bonchon is a franchise with a few other locations in Connecticut like in New Haven. If you really love wings, an adventurous eater or love spicy food, I recommend in giving Bonchon a try.

    Korean BBQ wings with pork potstickers
    Alisa G.

    Came for lunch with my husband, we were seated right away. The service was fast and friendly. The Korean bbq wings are the BEST I've ever had! Super crispy and flavorful! The seasoned fries were delicious! And the pork potstickers were my FAVORITE!!!! This is a must try! I will definitely be coming here whenever I'm in the area!

    I've had BonChon in Massachusetts and New York so I was excited to check this one out. The restaurant was clean and service was friendly. There's a bar/counter when you first walk in. We sat at one of the tables and there's a huge projection screen with sports on. Parking lot was spacious and in a plaza. For my meal, I ordered the the lunch special; 8 pc wings with half of it spicy and half Korean BBQ. There was a complementary side which I opted for white rice. The chicken was fried to perfection; it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The flavor profile of the spicy and Korean BBQ was intense; sweet salty, spicy, my taste buds were dancing. I love kimchi so I had to order a side; the pickled napa cabbage with a mix of spices helped cut the fried food fats. My husband ordered the Korean tacos; spicy chicken with coleslaw, lettuce, buttermilk ranch, spicy mayo, scallions, and spicy chicken in a tortilla. I had a bite of that taco and it was amazing. He also had their boneless chicken soy garlic and he said it was delicious. The service was quick, friendly, and attentive throughout the experience. The place was clean, including the restroom, and spacious. The food was A+. Our overall experience was top notch, can't wait to go back.

    Combo Korean BBQ Wings
    Melissa T.

    I love Bonchon! I've been here twice now and the food is SO good. My first visit, my husband and I got way too much food, but were excited for leftovers. We ordered the Pork Belly Bao Buns, Korean Chicken Tacos, Bulgogi Fries, Vegetable Potstickers, and Combo Korean BBQ wings. We loved everything - the spiciness, flavor, and crunchiness. I can't wait to visit again!

    Stopped into Rocking Chicken on a Thursday evening for a quick dinner. When I walked in the door,…read moreI was greeted with a warm smile and very loud music. After looking over the menu, I decided to get the rockin chicken bowl. This dish included many things I liked. There was vegetable fried rice, Peruvian beans, plantain, and the most amazing chicken I have ever eaten. I decided to order the shortbread cookies I had been hearing about as well. The immaculate dining room has a few tables. My cashier told me to take a seat and she would bring my food over when it was ready. I did not have to wait very long. I can't even express how delicious this chicken was it's coal fired and even without skin the chicken was succulent, and so full of flavor. The beans were OK. The rice was outstanding, and the two homemade sauces they provided were creamy and delicious one is spicy enough to provide flavor, but not so much to burn your mouth. The cookies were the PERFECT light buttery ending to my meal. Let me wrap it up by saying I had leftovers when I came home that I offered to my husband. He insists that he will be getting his own order this weekend.

    Omg. This restaurant is horrible. I ordered Chicken and it was bloody and uncooked. Who teach these…read morepeople how to cook. I would not recommend anyone to eat here. Well don't order the chicken anyway......

    If you're craving comfort food done RIGHT, Rooster Chicken and Waffles does not disappoint…read more Everything about my order hit. The food was fresh, hot, and a solid portion. You can tell they don't cut corners. I literally saw them in the back battering the chicken by hand, which says a lot about the quality and care they put into their food. The sauces? All made in-house, and you can taste the difference. Every bite had flavor on flavor; no shortcuts here. They may have multiple locations, but this spot? Yeah... they put their foot in the food I'll definitely came back.

    Rooster's on Main Street is finally open! I've been waiting for a while I feel like. I've been told…read morethey've only been open for two months. Apparently the most popular item are their tenders and I will agree! It's delicious! The 10-pc tenders are decently sized for $16.99. As soon as I walk-in, I am greeted with a beautiful smile and a friendly host! I also got the waffle fries and Mac and cheese with this order okay a Strawberry milkshake that looks very appetizing! The chicken is peppery and crunchy. The waffle fries are also well seasoned. I can't wait to try the Mac and cheese when I get home! They have an assortment of sauces with varying heat. Will you play it safe or you will you take the risk and sweat it! The business is clean and well kept. The colors are vibrant and very inviting. They have a good view of Main Street too!
