Ttobongee Chicken - Folsom - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

Korean food is my favorite so I was excited to try out Ttobongee. The menu is very similar to Vons which is my go-to Korean fried chicken place so I had high expectations. We decided to go with the signature Ttobongee Chicken on the menu so that we could try the namesake. It comes with pickled jalapeños and pickled radish, and your choice of rice or salad. Then we also got a side of cheese balls, and then cheese fries for our kids. The fries came out first. It was in a big paper bag and then they give the cheese powder on the side so you can add as much or little as you like (it's $1 extra). But it's a TON of fries!! Very good value. The paper bag allows you to close it and shake it up easily. The fries were cooked nicely too and I liked that they were thin cut. Then the cheese balls came out. The outside is nice and crispy, similar to Korean corn dogs but less breading. The inside was gooey and reminded me more of mochi! So good. Finally the chicken came out after that, but everything was super fast, maybe about 10 minutes for everything to come out! The chicken was a beautiful golden brown and cooked so nicely. I liked that the skin wasn't too heavy and it had a nice crunch. The meat was juicy and tender. Normally we like boneless but he said we couldn't get it in this flavor so we just got drumsticks instead. It was so good in the pickled jalapeño sauce, I needed more of it! Overall very nice cook on the chicken but it's definitely on the plain side so you need that sauce or some more flavorful sides like kimchi to go with it. It's a small place but several booths to sit at. They have delicious drink options like Korean flavored milks and I even saw a poster for kimchi beer. Overall pretty solid place for fast casual Korean food. I hope to try more flavors to get a better sense of comparison to other Korean fried chicken places, but I'm glad they have this type of option in Folsom! read more

I pre ordered and was quite surprised to be asked about additional items since the usual branch I frequent is in Natomas. They offer a small side of salad or rice per each chicken order which was interesting. The food was great and it was consistent with the other branch. Since I preordered while doing errands I got a bit distracted so they called me a few time after I hit the hour mark from my phone order. Inside was small and felt a bit cramped, but it is located in a nice shopping plaza for other items or foods too. read more

This is just one of my favorite places good pricing good chicken. I love their chicken. I would take this over Kentucky fried chicken any day of the week. I like the varieties of fried chicken. I like the boxes of meals. This is just a wonderful place. read more

Nothing in the Sacramento area will compare to this place! The rice cakes have a great texture and the sauce is not too spicy. You definitely need water but it's a good spice. The water is self serve and the staff are very nice! They welcomed us in and waved bye. Super cute place, will definitely come back when I am craving Korean food. read more

Korean chicken! I was introduced to this place by my friend. I'm rarely in Folsom area. Glad I was able to try this place out. They are located next to the Palladio. Been here twice already :) They have pretty good selections on their menu. Main thing is chicken of course. Lots of chicken lol. They offer chicken, beef, pork, soup, special, side orders and drinks. For their chicken selections, there are many flavors to choose from. Plain, saucy, sweet or savory. S1: didn't take a pic. It comes with ttobongee chicken bones or boneless, japchae, rice, kimchi, broccoli and bean sprouts. We got the bones. The wings were very tiny. Kinda plain but it was good. Kimchi had a weird aftertaste I didn't like. Japchae was good. Broccoli and bean sprouts were simple. S2: didn't take a pic. This one comes with yang nyum chicken bones or boneless, japchae, rice, kimchi, broccoli and bean sprouts. We got the bones as well. The wings were tiny but loaded with flavors. Just the right amount of heat. Not as crispy as expected. This one tasted better than ttobongee chicken. Yang nyum chicken: omg, this one was too spicy for me but it was good, tender and juicy. The skin was lightly crisped. Soy & garlic: this one was really good. It was really tender and juicy. Thought it was fried but it wasn't crispy. Dduk bok gi: this was super spicy! The staff told us that she can add water to dilute the heat level but still too spicy for us to handle lol. The texture was really fun to chew on. Definitely a filler. It comes with dumplings. Service was nice and friendly. You order at the front counter then the staff will bring the food over to your table. Food took about 15 minutes. They provided gloves to eat with. It does get messy eating chicken. They also have self serve water station at the front. They are pricey but all Korean places are pricey. Be careful when eating the chicken, it was extremely hot. At least you know it was freshly made. My favorite so far was the soy & garlic. Can't wait to try other flavors one day. Looking forward for them to have a location in Elk Grove :) read more

I had dinner here twice and both times the food was less than good. I am still puzzled how it got such good reviews. I got wings in different flavors and also jabchae. And the wings were so greasy and either flavorless or too sweet. Jabchae also not very authentic. I am a Korean and had plenty of Korean food but I feel this place is so not authentic and not good read more

I lived in Korea for three years and every time I went to a restaurant there, I would order bip bim bap. It's my favorite dish and Ive tried to find something comparable in the US--well Ttobongee makes wonderful wonderful bip bim bap. I'm from Montana so will carry home with me, great memories of a memorable dinner! read more

We really like the crispy and salad with chicken, we order delivery approximately once a week. Only problem, I can't ever get through on their telephone, it always rings and hangs up?? That's ok I just order via DoorDash read more

Ttobongee Chicken - Folsom - Order delivery last night, 2 orders crispy wings and salad - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

Favorite Korean Fried Chicken in the area! Service was amazing. I can't get over how crispy the chicken was. Korean side dishes on point also! read more

This has been our go-to spot to satisfy our Korean fried chicken cravings in our neighborhood. We usually order the soy garlic but recently, we also ordered the yangnyum chicken with sauce on the side. The yangnyum sauce was sweet and slightly spicy with enough heat. We also recently tried the gochu mayo after a friend got a tray catered along with their japchae. The gochu mayo was delicious with a creamy yet spicy finish. We will be back to try more of their menu and maybe even dine in one day. read more

Wow can I give this place a 5+ They either listened to my previous comment of them not opening early enough for my lunch time or they wanted to have the same time as Vons - cause wow they're open at 1130 now. The diff between a good restaurant and an AMAZING one is listening to their customers feedback. Super stoked! read more

We ordered #7 MAIP DAK CHICKEN and #5 GREEN ONION CHICKEN. Maip Dak Chicken wings were disappointingly not spicy. Wing sizes were small. Flavor was a mild sweet and spicy Green Onion chicken the drumsticks are a great size, good flavor but a little undercooked. Service from the staff was nice! read more

Came here to pick up some chicken for the fam. Ordered the full size 'Original Tto Bong Ee' and a half size of the 'Extra Crispy'. DELICIOUS!! I think they are my favorite fried chicken place. Only 4 stars for now because we have not actually sat in the restaurant yet, so we don't know what the service is like. But overall...excellent food. I am going to order the chicken bulgogi next time cuz it looks yummy too. The pic is only the leftovers because the family ate like a pack of animals. This place has not disappointed. Now, all I need is a good waffle place to make my chicken and waffle dreams come true. read more

Ttobongee Chicken - Folsom - Extra crispy and an original. These were "leftovers" (that only lasted for 10 mins before they got eaten). Good stuff!! - Korean Near Me - Folsom, California

I've been here multiple times since they opened a couple years ago. My mom is visiting and constantly watches K-dramas on Netflix so has been craving Korean fried chicken. The place is a small, clean restaurant with energetic K-pop music playing. Everything is made fresh and to order. I took home the regular and spicy combo chicken box which was pricy at about $30 and also the black bean noodles and an order of kimchi. The wait was about 15 minutes. My mom was raving about how juicy and well flavored the regular fried chicken tasted. Everything tasted amazing. Will be back soon! read more

I've been waiting for this place to open for months. I was excited to have a Korean chicken place in Folsom so I went a few days after the grand opening. I ordered to go and got japchae noodles, a full order of the Yang Nyum chicken, and an order of kimchi fried rice. The japchae was just ok to me. Tasty but I felt it was lacking vegetables. It seemed like I got a lot of noodles without vegetables compared to other japchae I've had at other restaurants. On to the Yang Nyum chicken. It was good. Not spectacular but I enjoyed it and it didn't feel too tough. The sauce also didn't go overboard and wasn't spicy for me at all. I'll go back to try the other items on the menu. Service was nice, and the packaging was good. I admit that for the price it felt that the portions were on the smaller side. It's definitely a good place to go with friends. For a family of four for example to really feed everyone, the bill would start to rack up considering the size of the portion one gets. read more

The best Korean food spot in town! Pretty affordable for the quality and taste. Portions are pretty big too so come with friends! Their crispy chicken is so good and their kimchi rice is very mild but yummy. I definitely recommend this place! Very cozy vibes in here :) read more

Wow! First time having Korean fried chicken and I am thoroughly satisfied. Ordered Yang Nyum chicken and a ham and cheese Korean corn dog. The chicken is awesome. Great balance of sweet and spicy chili flavors. And the portion size is huge! So much more than I could eat in one lunch break lol. Also comes with steamed rice or salad. I've been wanting to try a Korean corn dog for a while now and I enjoyed that as well, but I think it was completely outshined by the chicken. Corn dog is probably an acquired taste since there is sugar on the outside and mostly melted cheese in the center. Yummy but novel. Ambiance is cool really bright a lot of natural light from the windows, K Pop on the in-house TVs really makes it a fun and lively experience. Restaurant was clean and it was early in the day so foot traffic was relatively slow. Overall I would visit here again with a friend and split a plate of their delicious chicken! I'm also curious to return and try other flavor offerings. Price for quality is solid and the staff working were very nice and offered to answer any questions I might have. Nice job! read more

It's beautiful small restaurant, lots of opts for chicken, I love their Korean cheese ball and soup. Staff are very kind and helpful.

So I frequent a restaurant called Bonchon, but moved and was really disappointed because they were my favorite fried chicken establishment. I was pleasantly surprised to find this place near the Palladio in Folsom. Similar kinds of side dishes, like the pickled radish and white rice along side while the chicken was definitely a bit different, it was that delicious fried chicken flavor and crunch that you want in Korean fried chicken. Definitely a must try if you are in the area. read more

Great service. Very friendly! Great food! We will definitely return for more Korean food experiences.

Good food, helped with additional utensils and plates as we were eating on the run. Would visit again!

i loveee chicken i am a fried chicken connoisseur, this place is honestly some of if not the best chicken I've ever had in my life. and the kimchi is also some of the best! definitely give it a shot read more

One of the best more authentic Korean places in town. Great portions too. Customer service also 10/10

The chicken is super crispy and fresh! They give you a great amount for the price as well. And the rice cakes are soooo good!

Service: We went close to closing time but the two workers on shift were really kind and didn't rush us on our orders. They were both super sweet especially the cashier! Great service! 10/10 Food: We got the soy garlic chicken and the fried seaweed rolls. The chicken was pretty good but I would say Bon Chon is better in flavor and crispiness. The daikon was delicious though! I would rate the chicken 6.5/10, the seaweed rolls a 7/10, and the daikon a 11/10! Ambiance: We were unable to experience the ambiance since we went so late. They were only doing to go order for the last thirty minutes. We ate outside the restaurant which was still nice since the plaza is fairly clean. read more

The chicken wings are tasty and there's plenty in the order - half & half. The kimchee fried rice was okay but the fried egg yolk cooked on top of the rice and so the yolk was not runny. I'd go here if you want a quick fast food Korean bite. read more

Scrumptious yumminess with a warm friendly welcome is always appreciated when I visit Ttobongee! Hubby and I were excited when we drove by and noticed the new business last year. We have dined here twice now and I've visited to bring home take out a number of times since my work place is just a few minutes from the location. Parking is ample and the wait time for the order doesn't take too long. There has always been a place to sit and rest while waiting. The bi bim bap is my go to comfort food so I'm grateful this is offered here. I order the vegetarian with extra veggies. Complimentary side dishes of kimchee and pickled dish is greatly appreciated always! Jalapeño chicken is perfectly seasoned with just enough spiciness even for me who normally doesn't like spicy foods. The tofu stew is also scrumptious delicious and a must try! read more

Nice spot with great foods n service .. clean atmosphere.. so far just the perfect place ..!

This place was my husband and I's birthday go-to this year. Love the chicken, and the pickled radish(would buy if they offered on its own), and I even got an ice cream for my birthday! Thank you, guys!! read more

Wow! Awesome Chicken! We've been considering eating here for a while, but we weren't familiar at all with Korean fried chicken. So, we didn't know what to expect or what to try. We ordered the #1 Ttobongee Chicken Half Combo 9-piece drums & wings. My husband and I shared the meal. The chicken was incredibly delicious! This is absolutely the best tasting fried chicken I've ever had! The meat was juicy & flavorful. The crust was perfectly seasoned, very crispy & a bit thicker than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise. I loved every bite of the drums & wings so much that I was wishing that I had the entire 9-piece meal all to myself! This is now my favorite place to go for fried chicken! :) The meal came with small sides: garden salad, pickled radish, pickled jalapeños & packets of Soy Sauce & Ranch Dressing. My husband liked the radishes; I didn't try them. Neither of us tried the jalapeños. Maybe next time I'll try those sides. We shared the small garden salad which was: small leaves of Romaine lettuce, carrot shreds, one grape tomato and it was very fresh. Since the salad was really more like one serving, we expanded our salads for sharing by adding a few broccoli florets & a few halved grape tomatoes, that we had on hand. Important tip: This is not fast food. Be sure to plan ahead. My husband walked in & ordered for take-out. He had to wait 20 minutes while the meal was. prepared. And it was definitely worth the wait! We will definitely be back... ideally once a week! :) read more

We went to this restaurant this weekend and this is the best fried chicken we have had in the area and the price is great. We will definitely return back! read more

Saw this place a few months ago before it was open. It was on my to go list. We went on a Friday around 6. It wasn't too busy and there's about 3-4 small tables for 2 & then 4 bigger tables for a family size to maybe 6. Lucky for us there was one empty table for us to dine. We tried the half extra crispy chicken and half soy garlic chicken which both were delicious. It didn't take as long as what I had read on Yelp. It came pretty fast. We got an order of fries which was a big portion and was delicious . We also got an order of japchae which was good and lastly the japchae rolls which was different first time trying it and it was pretty good. I also tried the Korean beer for the first time and didn't know I had to shake it up. Oops lol it was milky towards the end but it was still good. All and all I thought the food was delicious. For the price it's worth it! I was reading some people said it's over priced, guess they never been to any other Korean chicken places. It's not your typical chicken fast food and you get what you pay for! you're willing to spend money,something different and delicious I highly recommend coming here! We definitely will be back to try the items. read more

I have been waiting to try out the few Korean-style chicken places in Folsom for a while now; they have finally opened. I ordered online for pick-up, I had arrived slightly early, so I sat inside and waited for them to prepare my order. The staff advised me it would be about 15 minutes, so it was earlier than the time I had selected to pick up perfectly understandable. The staff are amicable, clean, and neat, have a small tap to the left when you walk in for beverages, and the kitchen is straight to the back. Small indoor seating a few outdoor patio seating as well. Jalapeño Chicken half with jalapeño sauce - This was perfectly spicy and not for me, lots of flavors, and the chicken was perfectly crunchy. 5/5 Gal Bi Chicken half with gal bi sauce was perfectly seasoned, so much flavor and crunchy with every bite. 5/5 Kim Chi Fried Rice - This should be listed as spicy on the menu, I loved it, but after many bites, the spicy accumulates and starts to take over but so much flavor. 4/5 Ham & Cheese corn Dog - I was disappointed with this, not sure why it comes with sugar on them, but I like the savory flavors better definitely want to get that again. 2/5 I want to try several other wing flavors; I will be selective with the sides I get with them. read more

A fried chicken place that's not too far from home! I love the area and plaza they decided to open this one up in. I usually order the crispy chicken combo from here! The order comes with radish and jalapeños. I recently ordered the fried rice and coleslaw as well. The fried rice complements the chicken, so that you're not just eating chicken alone. I enjoyed the coleslaw, it just added extra flavoring on the side and you feel healthy eating it lol. I have yet to try their beers, but I'll definitely be back again!! read more

I didn't realize there is a Korean chicken restaurant in Folsom. Menu is very overpriced so even though I wanted to try this place, I won't be returning. Also check their menu at the website for updated prices, it is higher than what someone posted on Yelp a month ago. I ordered the full size (around 18 pieces) boneless soy sauce and garlic chicken wings. It came to 32$ with tax which is ridiculous. The order came with pickled radish and jalapeños in some sauce. Chicken itself was well seasoned and tasty. The soy sauce option (no. 4) is spicy as listed. read more

The chicken was so delicious and we also ordered japchae. The portion was good size and it tasted so good. The people who work there were really nice. I highly recommend this location. I have been to the one in Natomas that one was ok as far as service. I will come back if I am in the area. read more

I had such high hopes for this place as I lived across the street and would always pass by the "opening soon" banner for weeks and check on their opening date. I also watched some k dramas and was dying to try out some korean fried chicken as they were so frequently shown in the shows. I came here for a to-go order (probably the second day they were open) and had to wait for a long time for the food to be ready. I think it was a little pricey for the amount of food, and the food wasn't too impressive. I did enjoy it but wasn't planning on returning as a regular guest. However, the staff were very friendly, and the people who were dining in in the restaurant seemed to be having a great time! Would recommend giving it a try for yourself! read more

Good Korean Fried Chicken Just opened in Folsom (July 2021) and the chicken was great! Had their Extra Crispy and Soy Garlic. Soy Garlic was good and just a bit spicy. Extra Crispy was hot, straight from the fryer and was my favorite of the two. Served well with the Kimchee Fried Rice. I can probably come back just for the fried rice alone. It was that good. Not at ally spicy. Their grand opening features 50% off on all drinks, so we took advantage and got a pitcher of beer for the table. Would definitely go back again, but be advised. It took a very long time (30-45 min) to get the food. Maybe because they just opened recently or maybe we ate their during an early dinner rush, but even the to-go orders took that long and saw several people waiting in disgust for their food. I would recommend phoning in your orders as I noticed several of those came in, even when I was ordering. read more
