    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
    Be H.

    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!

    Crispy "Yangnyum" Chicken
    Frances L.

    Can't go wrong with fried chicken, but Vons is delicious! My husband and sons couldn't wait to try Vons when we heard the restaurant had opened a location in Dublin. We liked the choice of the combo which includes drumsticks and wings. Plus, we enjoyed the variety of sauces available. Crispy "Yangnyum" Chicken was spicy goodness! The chicken was still crunchy and was coated in a spicy, savory sauce. Our other favorite was the simple Crunchy Fried Chicken made with 5 grain powder. We'll be back and hope to try the oven baked chicken when it's available.

    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?

    I've been meaning to write this review since July 2021--at least, that's how old my first set of…read morephotos is from when I intended to post a review. But years later, Tasty Pot at Ulferts Center is still one of our reliable go-to spots in Dublin. My wife usually orders the Beef Hot Soup, while I go for the Taiwanese Supreme Spicy Hot Soup - both with a side of rice and either black or green tea during lunchtime. Both pots are consistently delicious, satisfying, and served steaming hot - the kind of hot that clears your sinuses and makes your nose run. For reference, we order them at the "medium" spice level, so either we're weak sauce or they really are that hot and spicy. I especially like that Tasty Pot's meals are complete individual servings. You get the full hot-pot experience without having to fetch ingredients, wait for a communal pot to cook, or coordinate a family-style meal. It's easy, convenient, and perfect when everyone just wants to dig into their own bowl. Service has always been fast, and the food comes out piping hot and ready to enjoy. The wait staff also checks in to see whether you are running low on soup and need a top-off. They also have a rewards program that earns you points toward a free hot pot; it has changed over the last couple of years from a "buy seven, get one free" setup to a points-based system - either way, it's a nice bonus. If you're craving comforting Taiwanese-style hot pot in the Dublin, Pleasanton, or Livermore area, this is an easy five-star choice.

    My sister recommended Tasty Pot because she said it was well known for its soup and good service,…read moreso we decided to give this location a try. Unfortunately, our experience at the Dublin location was extremely disappointing. We visited on August 8, 2026, at around 8:45 PM. We are a family of 9 and were just passing through the area on our way to our hotel. Since the restaurant's website states that the closing time is 9:30 PM, we thought we had enough time to have dinner, especially since this was our first time visiting. As soon as we arrived, however, we were told by the server that 8:45 PM was the last call for orders. We immediately tried to order as quickly as possible using the online ordering system because we did not want to inconvenience the staff. After placing our order, we were then told that green tea and other teas were unavailable, so all of our drink orders were canceled except for water. We understood that items can sometimes run out, so we let that go. The biggest problem was the service and atmosphere after we received our food. It was very difficult to get the attention of the staff because everyone seemed to be rushing around cleaning. We genuinely felt like we were a burden simply because we were still eating. What was especially inappropriate was that while customers were still dining, the staff began putting chairs up on the tables. I even took a picture because I believe management should be aware of what was happening. If the restaurant is still open and customers are still eating, this is not the kind of atmosphere customers should be subjected to. Even worse, it appeared that the AC was turned off while we were still eating, even though it was not yet closing time. With hot pot already being a very warm meal, we were literally sweating while trying to eat. After a long day of traveling, the last thing we wanted was to feel rushed and uncomfortable during dinner. We tried not to make a big issue out of it because we were tired and simply wanted to finish our meal and get to our hotel. But honestly, this type of service is unacceptable. I don't know if this is how every Tasty Pot location operates, but if this is specific to this branch, management really needs to address it and properly train the staff on how to treat customers who are still dining during business hours. Unfortunately, this was our first experience with Tasty Pot, and it will most likely be our last. We were hoping to enjoy the food and understand why my sister recommended it, but the poor service and uncomfortable atmosphere completely ruined the experience. With hot pot, the food is already hot enough. There's no need for the customers to leave with a boiling-hot temper because of the service. Very disappointing, and definitely not a place I would recommend based on this experience.

Some pros to this place is that now it is an ACYE and still has lamb options! I came here with a large party. You can make reservations in advance which is great. We were seated promptly when we arrived. However, since the party was pretty big (larger than 10), the table we sat at felt awkwardly position. It was round but it definitely has the cooking stoves in the center. It was hard to cook since we had to reach out to them, there were 4 cooking apparatus in the center. Also, this table felt very private - so there's definitely pros and cons to it since there's a barracade that enclosed it. There's also hot foods that is a self-serve buffet, this includes french fries, chicken wings, chow mein, fried rice. I didn't try the chow mein and fried rice. My kids ate the chow mein and some of the fried foods and gave my a thumbs up. They definitely enjoyed the french fries and there's also sesame ball in this hot food buffet section. There's a separate section for DIY sauce bar which has all the essential sauces I like. There's also another self-serve buffet section of raw foods which includes a variety of vegetables, dumpling, quail egg etc. The meat are ordered with the wait staff. If you order off the premium menu, it also includes some hot foods such as the lava baos which my kids adore. As for the broths, I think I'll stick the original bone marrow broth. I do feel like there's a herbal or distinct taste to the broths but it is still fine. I tried the spicy one and the tomato-based one. Although they are good, I prefer the simplicity of the broths sometimes so sticking to the original broth. I still enjoyed all the meats. I had the lamb and it was what I expected. The higher quality meats were fine as well. They do come around to refill the broth as well. As for ending the menu, there's self-served soft serve which you can put in a cone or a cup. They also have those fried dough with condensed milk which is delicious. Of note, I find the water here has a metallic taste. Unclear if it is due to the city of Dublin water or it has something to do with the restaurant. Overall, still a pleasant experience and would definitely return to enjoy hot pot!
