    Ramen maker as you've seen in K drama
    Anna L.

    They have new menu items ranging from chicken (obviously!) to Korean appetizer snacks (tteokbokki/mandoo/japchae). We loved the hot, crispy fried chicken and the soy garlic fried chicken. The server was nice and friendly. The place is great for eating with friends, definitely worth checking out.

    1/2 Crispy Yangnyeom Chicken

    This is my favorite Korean fried chicken place for to-go! We make the rice at home, order online and it's usually ready in 15-20 minutes. The crispy yangnyeom chicken (5/5) has great crispness and flavor. The half size is perfect to split between me and my boyfriend. We also like to get half medium and half mild sauces because the medium is a bit too spicy and the mild balances it out well. I've always eaten to-go so that's how I'd recommend you guys do it too :)

    Service is efficient and the chickens are tasty. Personally the original crunchy is the best. Yangyum version is intentionally over fries a bit to prevent soggy chicken so it's really a matter of preference. Ramen stations are a neat addition. We did not try it but it was fun to try in Korea outdoors. I'm curious how these will be received by US diners.

    I picked up a full chicken order with honey butter. The flavor was great but the quality of the chicken was not that good and too dry. The lady at the counter was super nice and friendly.

    Fresh fried chicken wings? Great to have as a meal or bring to parties. Food I ordered the following via Yelp through GrubHub: B. Crispy Fried Chicken Full E. Crispy Fried Chicken with Cheddar Full Sweet Potato Fries with ranch dip The total was about $99 USD and was easily shareable for a group of people. The order was piping hot and ready before the quoted pick up time. I ordered the Crispy Fried Chicken with a medium spice level and it had a nice kick to it. The Crispy Fried Chicken with Cheddar Full was very crispy, flaky, and crunchy. It had a lot of the cheddar seasoning - which was amazing! The cheddar seasoning reminds me of the Velveeta macaroni dried cheese packets, but much better. The Sweet Potato Fries portions were a bit on the smaller side. It would've been nice if the box was filled considering it's $4.50 for each order. Customer Service The staff was very friendly and quick with gathering my order for pick up. Overall, I would definitely recommend trying it if you haven't already.

    Visiting here for the second time and no bleach smell this time! Went with a friend for dinner and the service was fast with a lot of to-go orders coming in and out as we waited for our chicken to be served. What I ordered: Honey Butter/Cheese Chicken Wings- very interesting dry rub combination that was sweet and complimented the saltiness of the crispy chicken wings. Thankful that I could order half half to try both flavors. The honey butter was more flavorful because of that nostalgic factor since the flavor profile reminded me of Asian honey butter chips at an Asian supermarket. Would recommend this flavor if you and your party are looking for something new to try and if you prefer dry rub! Better experience than last time! :D

    Came into Von's for their awesomely amazing tasting chicken. Once yopu have Von's Korean chicken wings no other chicken will satisfy your wing cravings. Von's chicken is always made fresh and is steaming hot. Their wings have a great outer layer and crispy, crunchy with every bit. You wont be disappointed with this great chicken and wings. I prefer the fried over the baked. The taste is better and the crispyness makes it even better. Will continue to come to Von's chicken when im in the area to satisfy my chicken wing cravings. This location is a bit out of my way, however, I know if I want good tasting chicken wings with a crispy crunch in evry bite this is the place. Im deffinately stopping in when im in the area. Happy eating, CRUNCH. Loved the pop of orangein the interior. Small dinning area but it works.

    The deals here are crazy good! Each combo plate costs $12.99 and it was more than enough food for me. I got the 3 Drum combo with steamed rice and boy was it good. The drums were huge and the soy glaze on the chicken was perfect. Some places drench their chicken in sauce which makes the flavor overpowering, but Vons puts the perfect amount of sauce on their chicken. They even threw in an extra wing for my order! The service was quick and we got our food in about 5-7 minutes after ordering. The seating inside was super clean and eating in the store was a great experience!

    Vons Special, Hot, Half Combo 1

    Vons offers both fried and roasted chicken as well as some Korean side dishes like tteokbokki. You order and pay at the counter, but the food is brought out to your table and they bus the table. They provided food safe gloves which was really convenient for eating the saucy chicken. I've never been offered this before and now I'm not sure I'll be able to eat chicken again without it, haha. We ordered two "half" size combo 1 and a side, and this turned out to be a lot of food. A "wing" here is either a flat or drumette (i.e. 2 "wings" is a full wing), while a "drum" here is actually the leg drumstick. Each half combo 1 was 4 wings and 3 drums. We liked the Hot Vons Special sauce which had a good kick to it without being overwhelming. The Crispy Real Garlic flavor was much sweeter than we were expecting and we probably won't get this one again. However, we liked how crispy the fried chicken was -- we'll try a different flavor next time. The Sodduck (So-Tteok) was fine, but nothing special. The chicken portion was larger than we expected, so we probably wouldn't order a side next time.

    3. Half Garlic Chicken E. Crispy Yangnyeom Chicken
    Yan L.

    Pretty standard fried chicken tossed in sauce (except mine wasn't for some reason). Nothing exciting and pretty expensive. Similar to Wingstop but with Asian flavors and very expensive. I think 20 boneless wings ran me up to around $40. Also similar to Bonchon but not as good. Either would be good alternatives to this chain. The reason why I'm giving 3 stars is because of the garlic powder + maybe cheese thing they gave me on the side. That was good and carried the chicken. Overall nothing special wouldn't go here again but it was fun to try.

    Went in on a weekday 12:30pm, completely empty. Ordered the lunch special for $13.99 which turned out amazing! Perfect for a quick lunch. Chicken was crispy and had a little kick. Kimchi fried rice didn't really have much kimchi but still tasted good. I would go back if I am in the area again.

    Crispy Fried Chicken L3. Six Wings Lunch with Kimchi Fried Rice and sauce on the side
    Naomi N.

    i love the chicken wings at Von's, it's more crispy and larger than other places. I always try to go during their lunch special which is Mon-Fri 12-3pm. my go to order is the Crispy Fried Chicken which is their soy garlic chicken with sauce on the side. I usually get mild if i'm not feeling the mood for spice.I always ask for sauce on the side because i feel like they don't put enough sauce on their wings. it's really nice that they give out their sauce on the side unlike other places. This time i decided to try the crispy fried garlic wings, i would say they were pretty good but I would stick to their crispy fried soy garlic chicken because i like the savoriness from the soy sauce . the garlic chicken has the same flavor as the soy garlic but without the soy sauce and more sweet. In my opinion, i would skip out on the kimchi fried rice. I got it and it was very soggy and wet. I was pretty disappointed eating it, it was kind of like mush to me. the rice was probably over cooked or something. I would opt in for the fries instead.

    Cheese Buldak
    Austin H.

    I got the cheese buldak and I really liked it! We asked if the chicken can come less spicy and they were able to do that for us. There is so much gooey cheese on top. This is supposed to come with rice cakes, but we had a hard time trying to find any -- maybe because it blended in with all of the cheese. The sauce adds a nice punch to the chicken and it was not too overpowering. The portions are big -- you definitely get your money's worth, which is why I'm giving 5 stars! I think one cheese buldak can feed three people, possibly even four people if you eat conservatively. I came here with one other person for a weekday dinner. The store was pretty much empty except for several customers who came in to order takeout, so we were able to find seating easily. You would order and pay first at the counter and sit down to wait for the food to be brought to you. Because of this structure, you kind of need to approach the counter if you need any service. The server we interacted was nice and accommodating. The dining area and restroom was really clean.

They did have TV's and the game was on. A couple empty tables that allowed us in. Wings were great. Cooked quite well and crispy. Had a few craft beers on tap.

The thai one is my absolute favorite, topped with green onions. I believe when we tried to Korean kick, it was a very similar flavor to the thai, minus the green onions. For the sides: Regular fries, seasoned fries, chili cheese fries, tater tots, chili cheese tots, zucchini sticks. We usually end up with fries. Last time we tried the seasoned fries, which we were hoping and hoping that they weren't too seasoned, being that the wings already have lots of flavor. However, we were pleasantly surprised to a very subtle seasoning. Overall, we keep coming to this place for their consistency and finger licking good wings.

Well seasoned, meaty pieces and definitely enough to feed 3-4 people (we were a party of 2). I had the next day - popped in air fryer and still as tasty. The honey butter was the fav for me. Soy garlic chili had a nice kick. The only down side was our fries were a little cold and dry and the soju cocktail didn't quite hit the spot (tasted the syrup) so I guess mix well before pouring. Other than that I'd love to try the other fusion dishes.
