Got take out from bon chon and I have to give it a 5/5 for the chickens crispiness lasting all the way home on a 20 min car ride. We got the new classic crunch wings and spicy wings with galbi fried rice. I'm surprise the classic crunch flavor taste delicious as it did. I thought it was going to be basic but the seasoning on it was good! Can't wait to go back to eat more wings the next time I crave bon chon. I wonder how it would have taste fresh out the kitchen instead of to go. read more

I always order the chicken mixed yangnyeom - spicy and sweet. The donut is good. I love the pickled radish as well. Jap Che is amazing too. Bibimbap must try. You can do dine in or to go. I like it to go sometimes for for cozy feel. They have plenty of seats for dine in. They need to make sure that bathrooms are tidy. The floor is a bit greasy. Be careful. The staffs are friendly. Easy to find location just beside Trader Joe's and other stores. I always go here for good chicken and donut. I recommend this place. read more

Friendly and quick service. Had the Korean chicken sandwich with sweet potato waffle fries. Both were good. My husband liked his Korean chicken wings and drums. Solid place. read more

We continue to order from Bonchon on a regular basis. Mostly by DoorDash. Because the wings, tenders and drumsticks are so crispy. They hold really well for delivery. Four Stars read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Bonchon West Hartford - Korean Near Me - West Hartford, Connecticut

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!! read more

Bonchon West Hartford - Wings - Korean Near Me - West Hartford, Connecticut

When I was weighing the move from NYC to West Hartford, my list of "dealbreakers" was longer than a Trader Joe's line in Union Square. Broadway? Gone. Bodegas at 2 a.m.? Gone. Bonchon? Definitely gone. I was prepared to grieve my crispy soy garlic wings like a lost subway MetroCard. Then I pull into Corbin's Corner, and what's staring me down across from Tiffany's, Arhaus, Saks, Pottery Barn, and Bloomingdale's in West Farms mall? BONCHON. Like the suburbs knew my love language was Korean fried chicken and retail temptation. The food? Same crackly perfection as in the city--crispy, sticky, sweet, salty. The wings practically dare you to say you miss NYC pizza. Service? Fast enough that I didn't even have time to refresh the MTA app out of habit. And the people? Okay, real talk: everyone here is so friendly it makes me suspicious. In New York, if someone smiles at you on the street, you immediately check for your wallet. In West Hartford, it just means they're holding the door open while you juggle a to-go order and a Bloomie's bag. So yeah, I may miss the chaos of Times Square at 2 a.m. (said no one ever), but with Bonchon in West Hartford, I don't feel like I left anything behind. Except maybe my cynicism... but don't worry, I'm keeping an eye on that. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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 read more

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. read more

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. read more

June 14, 2026 in between 130 and 230. I ordered the 10 piece chicken wing garlic and soy. It was awful. I remember this being so moist and delicious and flavorful. It was dry. Tasteless I won't be back again for a long time so I don't know what happened, but there's no excuse for that. read more

There's not many options that I have found for Korean fried chicken in the area, so Bonchon is a quick and reliable option when you're craving. Also nice if you want to multitask and shop at Trader Joe's next door while you wait for your takeout YumDrum Trio Deal for $12: Comes with 3 full-sized drumsticks (I chose soy garlic), a Korean donut, and French fries. Soy garlic drumsticks {3/5}: Big pieces that were cooked well and still had a decent crunch despite being takeout. The chicken itself was bland whereas the skin was overly salty, but the flavor itself is okay. French fries {3.5/5}: These were okay to me, my friend loved them and convinced me to choose the seasoned option (+$1), would probably skip out on these next time. Korean donut {5/5}: Golden and crispy on the outside, very soft and pillowy on the inside. Dusting of cinnamon sugar on the outside and dipped in a little bit of provided condensed milk made this a surprising highlight of the deal (I don't usually get dessert at dinner spots, but I would choose this again) My friend ordered the chicken bibimbap and said she would choose a different protein choice, as the chicken was overcooked. However, portion was huge! read more

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! read more

I've been wanting to check this place out for a while. After running a few errands to prepare for a fun event tomorrow, my friend took me out to eat with him. There's always that feeling of being overwhelmed when trying something new! Angela, our server, was absolutely amazing and knowledgeable. She helped us pick out great recommendations. I trusted her, and I'm glad I did. As a first-time experience, I would say it's worth the cost. The quality of the food is rich and tasty. I tried their popular House Fried Rice with Spicy Chicken, Soy Garlic, half and half Spicy and Korean BBQ wings, Pork Potstickers, and Chicken Bao Buns. It was a feast, and I even had to take a box to go. I definitely recommend this place. The customer service was very nice, and I'll definitely be coming back. read more

I visited Bonchon on a Saturday evening for lunch after some shopping at Westfarms. We were seated quickly and our food also was served soon after ordering. The wings were amazing, we got the half and half sauces and the spicy ones were fantastic with the side of coleslaw. The soy wings were also great. The wings are so perfectly crispy but not greasy. We also ordered the salmon avocado ball special, the salmon on the outside was super tasty and crispy. The fresh avocado filling was also very refreshing. The chicken fried rice was also fantastic, it has a great flavor and it is not too greasy. The restaurant is in a great location relative to Trader Joe's and Westfarms. The prices are great, all of our food came out to about $60. I highly recommend visiting, despite being a chain the quality of the food and the general experience is great! read more

Ordered food for take out and putting in the order was very easy . I could of done it online but I called instead. Busy place with people dining in or ordering for takeout. They also due curbside pick up. I ordered the combo wings , plain and Pork Buns. I actually ordered them for my dad since he loves some good crispy wings. The small was a big enough order! Had a combo of 3 drumsticks and 6 wings . My dad can taste the difference on how these were cooked. He said it was very tasty , crispy and not your usual wings! He also enjoyed his pork buns! Now I know why Bonchon is known for some good wings! read more

Roaches!! Yes, this hurts for me to say because their chicken tastes amazing, but they have cockroaches. I saw several cockroaches the last time I was there in broad daylight. Imagine when the lights go out, it's gotta be bad. We kindly just walked out, bc we didn't have the heart to say anything to staff, we like the staff at this place too much and usually get take-out. If you ever ate inside you notice the place is filthy too. The floors are greasy and have never been washed and leftover food under the tables. Clean this sh** up guys, love ya'll but I can't do roaches read more

My review is exclusive on the chicken wings and boneless wings. My son is a big chicken wing guy, which I'm not, however when he first introduced me to this place, I could not believe how good those wings were. Honestly the best chicken wings I have ever had. Wings are super crunchy with a lot of meat, definitely you can't miss with these wings. I got the boneless ones with they garlic and soy sauce. They were good too but the wings are just on another level, I think is the fact that supposedly fried them twice? I don't know, but whatever the case they are good. The location is in the plaza where there is a trader joes and best buy. I drive by the place all the time but never adventured in as I thought it was some mid type of place. I was wrong. The place is not super big but had a large screen to watch games. I will definitely be back for more of those wings. Also, tables around me had some dishes that smelled good, so once I'm back will try other things. Service was cool too, not pushy just there to help. One more thing, fries were Amazing! read more

I went to Bonchon's West Hartford location the other day, and was a little unsure if I'd like it, because I've never had Korean BBQ and also don't like anything spicy... But after trying it, I can honestly say that everything was amazing! I started off with the Pork Potstickers, which were lightly-fried and delicious. You can get them brushed with either Soy Garlic or Spicy sauce, or half and half. I got half and half, and (not to my surprise) the Spicy sauce was waaayyyy too spicy for me! I couldn't eat these, but I loved the Soy Garlic! You can also get vegetable instead of pork. For my main meal, I ordered the small Korean Fried Chicken Drumsticks, which came with five drumsticks. I thought these drumsticks would be the size you get when you order chicken wings at a restaurant, but this was not the case... the drumsticks are normal-sized chicken drumsticks. So five was more than enough to fill me up! For sauces, you can choose from Soy Garlic, Spicy, Korean BBQ, or half and half. I got the half and half Soy Garlic and Korean BBQ. Just like the Potstickers, the Soy Garlic sauce on the fried chicken was delicious. The Korean BBQ sauce had a little kick, but not bad and I was still able to enjoy them. As far as the fried chicken options, you can choose from wings, combo (drums and wings), drumsticks, strips, and boneless, and all have small, medium, and large sizes. For dessert, I couldn't decide between the Korean Donuts and Mochi, so I got both! The Korean Donuts, which came coated with cinnamon and sugar and had a vanilla frosting dipping sauce, were AMAZING! Some of the best donuts I've ever had. The Mochi flavors they had were strawberry, vanilla, and green tea. They came cut in half with a dollop of whipped cream on the top, and these were also really good. The staff were friendly and the food came out really quickly. The inside was clean and nicely decorated. Overall a great spot for Korean barbecue, which I am now a fan of! read more

Chicken wing is as crispy and the sauce is as tasty as they have always been. Why not 5 stars then? Two reasons: please toss the wings with a little more sauce. And talk to your supplier. The size of the wings are inconsistent. Some of the wings are pretty small. read more

I was sadly mistaken. I thought this was fast food but I now realize its fast food cooked slow. I love it! My first time having Bonchon was when I treated the staff at the moving company for lunch (having just relocated to the area). We all enjoyed it! I've had the chicken bao buns, chicken wings, and the spicy chicken sandwich. It's a solid meal. I've been dying to eat in but have only had take-out and they do a great job packaging everything. It's football season and BonChon wings are a Sunday staple! read more

Our first time trying Bonchon. We enjoyed it. Everything was fresh, hot and tasty. Service was quick and attentive. I will say the side portions in the family meal could be a tad bit larger as the container was not filled enough. read more

There is a serious quality control issue going on at this location. I used to order Bonchon a decent amount when I lived in NYC and always thought it was a bit overpriced so it was never my first choice, but I was craving it the other day and noticed they had reasonable lunch specials so decided to order. Giving two stars instead of one because the fries were tasty as was the daikon as always. However, my choices for lunch sides were either fries for a bit extra or daikon, and I ended up paying $2 for a massive side of daikon when all I really wanted was a few cubes for free. Anyway, not the end of the world. The chicken was terrible. Dry and completely devoid of the delicious glaze that I order bonchon for. I got half spicy and half soy garlic, and both variations were only partially dusted in some sort of flavor that did not resemble what I'm used to at other bonchon outposts. The chicken tender bar at my local Big Y is better. Pass. read more

Bonchon might advertise its spicy chicken, but the hidden prize is the udon noodle dish. Not that the chicken is anything to scoff at, it is truly delicious and wonderfully spicy. They also cook their dumplings slightly crispy and in a very spicy hot sauce that will plump up your lips. The service is fine. The restaurant itself has widely spaced and comfortable tables that help keep the noise down despite the ever present crowd. Cheers, Edward read more

We got some chicken wings and strips. Those were delicious same as other chains. However, we were very unhappy with the service here. The waitress ignored our presences for about 15 minutes even though it wasn't busy at all. She gave us 2 tiny bowls of coleslaw and radish for the sides, they weren't even filled half of the bowl. She refused to fix the side presentation and told us that how the sides came. We have to pay extra if we wanted to get more. To get another bowls like this? - No, thank you! Then, she continued to ignore us the whole time. No checking on us, no refilling drinks. We did not really like the Japchae, it was oily and too salty to eat. Well, our first and last time here! read more

Went in on a Thursday afternoon for lunch, the place was dead. I was greeted somewhat coldly, and sat immediately at a table. 15 minutes pass, my menu was put on the table as I was ready to order, and not any of the servers came to ask me if I wanted something to drink prior to ordering or take my lunch order I walked out. No food no service no money exchanged. Bonchon, you need to get your act together. read more

Bonchon is up there as one of my favorite restaurants! It's a casual dine in place so it's the perfect balance of not too fancy and not too fast food-y. Whatever I order there I always leave so so happy. Boy do the Koreans know how to fry their chicken! The crunch is insane, the sauces are enough to give up your first born child, and the rice cakes are just so freaking good. If I could have Bonchon for every meal I would. I would say their only fault for me is the service. Most are younger adults and can be hit or miss--you could get a server who completely forgets about you or one that's pretty decent. Either way, I forget all my troubles when the food comes out. read more
