    This was one of my favorite places for fried chicken but today was a complete disappointment. We ordered the yangnyeom fried chicken, mild flavor and I really can't believe what I'm saying but it was just fried chicken covered in ketchup! The taste was horrible, even my kids were asking why did it taste like that. I told the waitress and she didn't do anything about it. Then we ordered a soybean stew and they brought us this thick hummus like soup that didn't look appetizing and the flavor was just plain soybean purée. This is sad as this used to be of my go to places for Korean fried chicken.

    Honey butter fried chicken
    Yiqiu W.

    Great fried chicken and service. Food is seved fast and i love the honey butter flavor the most and all of them are very crispy and tasty. Will definitely come again!

    My order of Kimchi fried rice, basket of Honey Butter Fried Chicken (half order) and a side of pickled cucumber.

    Oh man! Yes yes! This is soul food with real Korean "Seoul" (soul)! Imagine KFC but sit down, serves a variety of beer, wine, soju, or non-alcoholic drinks, a deep Korean "healthier" menu, kimchi, rice and with Korean hospitality. This place a variety of different fried chicken with different levels of spiciness. It is not greasy and you can go home knowing it is homemade. And if fried chicken is not your thing, you can request korean bbq and everything that goes with it. The service is fast friendly, and simply hospitable. People are friendly and proud to serve what they serve. The place has lots of seating so its excellent for large parties, couples, or even solo. I went here by myself and and enjoyed a drink, half order of Crispy Honey Butter Fried Chicken with spicy seasoning, and kimchi fried rice with an order of pickled cucumber. I then ordered a Potato Tornado with honey butter.... I am not sure what it was but it was a sweet and savory desert... and I bet you can find it on YouTube! I'll be back for more!

    Here's the menu and prices as of Sept 2024

    Always good and worth the wait....wings are GREAT, japchae is excellent too. Try the different varieties both fried and roasted

    We came here around 5:30pm and were the only ones here. The place is spacious and has variety of Korean food options. You can get Korean BBQ if you want. We didn't feel like cooking so we opted for fried chicken, seafood pancake, and japchae. Everything was delicious. It is more on the pricy side. But overall, once in awhile coming here is not bad. It wasn't crowded and you don't need to wait to get seated.

    Had takeout as the dining area was closed for a party. I've always seen Vons chicken when I'm out and about, but never tried. This was my first. I must say it's different than what I'm use to. That alone will bring me back again. Got me half of the honey butter chicken with a side of kimchi fried rice for $25.84. It's pricey but that's the norm these days. Inflation! But hey, their chicken is crispy! It's also Banseok Jeong Korean BBQ, so I'd like to try that one day. They were very nice to us. Great customer service!

    Delicious food! Nice clean big restaurant with a nice setup and style. They also do Korean bbq. We came here for lunch but surprisingly the lunch special is only for togo? We wanted to eat there so just order half size combo of Crispy yangnyum chicken, half size combo of soy sauce & black vinegar chicken and some kimchi fried rice. The half size was a really good amount! We had so much left over. The chicken flavors we picked were really good! The crispy yangnyum was perfectly crisp with a nice sweet n spicy flavor. Our favorite was the soy sauce & black vinegar looots of flavor and really good! Kimchi fried rice was one of the best kimchi fried rices i have had! There was a little dolup of a red sauce on the kimchi plate and that was really good too! Loved it all! Nice service definitely can't wait to go back!

    Japchae
    Mj J.

    We placed an order for takeout, as the establishment offers an interesting of food choices. I was particularly intrigued by their Korean noodle dish, Japchae, and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it turned out to be slightly too salty for my personal palate. The fried chicken, on the other hand, was delightful. Although, if I may be honest, I personally prefer it either plain or with a mere hint of seasoning. As for the garlic chicken, it was truly scrumptious. However, the sweet potato fries failed to meet my expectations. Overall it wasn't bad. Maybe good a once a month thing.

    I was at the mall and when I was heading home, it was lunch time and I was craving chicken and rice when I remembered Von's Chicken was in the same center as Casa Orozco. I thought I would give this place a try. I walked up and the area is blocked by a cart so all of your orders, check in and pick ups are right there. Luckily I was the first one in because it started to fill up afterwards. Being the novice I am, I almost ordered a half chicken when I really wanted a plate. They do offer a lunch special but since there was no indoor menu, I had to walk outside and look at the sandwich board in front of the restaurant. I decided to go with the Crunchy Fried Chicken with rice. I paid and was told it will take 15 minutes to prepare. It was close to noon and I knew I was going to cut it close to make my 1:00 pm meeting. I decided to wait for my order and observe the customers coming in. I overheard that it's strongly recommended to make reservations for dining in. You will get in if it's not busy, but it's preferred that you make a reservation. For those dining in, there's a choice between the Korean menu or the chicken menu. Another option is to consider Door Dash. There was a driver who showed up twice to pick up orders for his customers before I even received my order! I may do that next time to skip the 15 minute in person wait. I did get my order with 30 minutes to spare! I have to admit this was really good and I would do it again. It is on the pricey side, so it will be on occasion for me. Overall, I'm glad I got the lunch special. A half chicken will run you about $15, while a whole may cost $30.

    Bibambap

    Big place with lots of seating. Ordered the beef Folsom bibambap and it cam quickly along with 6 ban Chan dishes. Food was piping hot the way I like it. Fast and friendly service.

    Side dishes to go

    Came here for lunch spontaneously and the food was pretty good. We originally wanted to sit down and eat here but since they only offer their "lunch specials" to go, we ordered and took the food home. We ordered 2 of the lunch specials, both 6 fried wings with the kimchi fried rice upgrade.. flavors were: Crispy Yang-nyum Chicken and Real garlic chicken. The garlic chicken were my favorite! It was nice and CRISPY, you can really taste the garlic and a hint of brown sugar... so good! The Yangnyum was decent, I would compare it something similar to sweet and sour chicken, i didn't care too much for it. The Kimchi fried rice was flavorful. Ordered some side dishes as well... ordered the quail eggs, fish cakes and vegetable japchae. All were tasty but nothing special.. I was SUPER shocked to find that those 3 items added up to be $53!!! Come to find out the japchae was $19...$19!!! Never in my life have I ever seen that price for vegetable japchae... I was surprised! Was more shocked at the fact that they listed it for $10.99 but rang me up for $19. I felt scammed. So here are some advice.. get the lunch specials to go, and ALWAYS double check the prices. I'm almost certain the lunch specials weren't actually $10.99 (+1 for kimchi fried rice upgrade).

    I am a big fan of the honey butter chicken here at Vons. Definitely a one of kind taste/flavor. I've been to the Vons in concord, but this was my first time at Vons Dublin. This is a combined Vons with another Korean bbq restaurant. They serve the Vons menu, then also a menu for their kbbq selection.. The chicken is so crispy and not dry. They also give pretty big drums. If you get all drums, a half order comes with about 5 large drum sticks. Honey butter never fails to impress me. My first time getting the crispy garlic, thought it was good, but still like the honey butter better.

    Who doesn't love crispy fried chicken?! My sister is a big fan of Korean fried chicken so of course she chose to get takeout from here for her birthday. We got an order of the honey butter fries which is always a hit! The fries are always crispy and we love the sweet and salty taste! The padak chicken is always yummy with the green onions on top of it! The honey butter fried chicken is my sisters favorite and is always the first to disappear from the table! The chicken coated in the honey butter sauce with cheese all over it is such a delicious bite! You can't stop after eating just one! The oven roasted chicken was perfectly flavorful and juicy! The red burn chicken was so good! I love spicy food and this was the perfect spicy level for me! Overall this place is super good! They are very quick and friendly!

    Has indoor dining opened?

    What are the nutrition facts of the chicken and the other items on the menu? For example carbs, protein etc?

    If you have to ask you can't afford it. It's battered, fried (maybe 2x), and drenched in sweet & savory sauce. Great for a cheat day.

    Can you order half and half like half crispy and half soy garlic?

Very chewy and I couldn't finish it since I ate a lot of sushi before it arrived. My sister didn't even finish her individual plate too and so we ended up taking them to go. What shocked me is that they serve us a huge portion of desserts especially the green tea ice cream. I thought that it's only going to be one scoop but they gave us 3! I think the one scoop is for someone's birthday? I don't know. And the vanilla ice cream with grilled pineapple is so yummy and it had a lot of cinnamon flavor I believe. It's one of the best vanilla ice creams I'd ever had. I probably never tasted vanilla ice cream that good before! I also appreciate the staff for helping with us with our orders! They were so helpful and kind to us. If I ever bring my friends over, it'd be this place. I highly recommend for others to try this place because the food here is really amazing!
