Got a half order of the crispy fried drums. Really good chicken. The drums were a good size. The seasoning was mild. The skin was crispy and not oily. The meat was juicy. Service was very friendly. It does take about 10 minutes to cook. However, it's worth the wait. read more

They are now have their first store in SoCal. Their chicken is so good as they have crispy and grilled options. The staffs are super friendly and helpful. Listen to Korean music as I eat Korean chicken! Highlights of the menu: 1. Crispy chicken: soy and honey butter 2. Roasted oven chicken: vons special and soy & black vinegar 3. Kimchi fried rice read more

The good: I got the honey butter crispy chicken wings and drumsticks in a half size and the Vons special roasted chicken in the same size. It's an extra $1 for a mix of wings and drumsticks or for wings only. Right now, they have an April promotion where you get 3 drumsticks (forgot which flavor) if you buy a full (20 piece) set. For 2 people, we weren't full with 20 pieces but I think we'd be full with 30. Chicken came with a small side of pickled radish. The bad: I don't think there was outside seating. They didn't have a restroom for customers to use (that I saw). The honey butter powder is a bit artificial. The interior is small. The interesting: I've been to a Korean fried chicken place called Vons in Northern California but I think they're not owned by the same people (?). The interesting: read more

Vons Chicken - Crispy Fried w/ Honey Butter (Half) - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

The chicken is good but overpriced. There are many extra upcharges and gotchas that aren't immediately obvious when glancing at the menu. First of all, they do not have "half-half" like any other Korean chicken shop. That is, if you want a whole chicken but two flavors, you must buy two separate half chickens for a far higher total price. To add insult to injury, they have upcharges for having drums and wings instead of just drums. But this is charged per order. So if you ordered two half chickens, it's double the upcharge. Plus, some of the flavors cost more. So when you see the initial menu price, be warned that you will likely pay a lot more. Honestly the chicken is not horrible but at almost $40 for a whole chicken you may as well go to bbq or bhc chicken for a better taste. The chicken was crispy and decently flavored. A little thick on the breading and had excess oil. Though I hope you're not eating fried chicken to cut calories. Good amount of meat on the bones, at least! They said over the phone it would be ready in 10 minutes and when we showed up about 15 minutes later it seemed that they had just started cooking. So if you order over the phone, probably double their initial time estimate. read more

Good Korean fried chicken spot. Most of their flavors are very tasty with good flavor, however my least favorite is ironically their most popular I believe which is the honey butter flavor, not a fan. My favorite flavor is the Vons special, that ones on point. Other than that the staff is friendly, the place is nice, and parking in the plaza should be fairly easy to find. However, they don't have restrooms. Still recommend for a try. read more

Are you team baked or fried? Okay by now, we all had or at least heard of Korean friedddd chicken, but have yall had them baked!? Well here at Vons Chicken, they have both baked and fried options; let's go textures! They have different flavors to choose from that range from, spicy, tangy, and sweet. My favorite was the crispy real garlic, which was sweet and savory with a nice garlic kick! My bf enjoyed the Vons special, reminiscent of a good ole cookout! All in all, the staff was super friendly, I liked the variety of options to choose from, the interior was modern and cozy, and the food was a hit! I am definitely team crispy and I have to come back to try more flavors soon! For now 4/5 Tip: Tucked away in Torrance Crossroads Shopping Center, parking is tight, and can get busy.

Fried chicken was great! They live the name of Korean fried chicken. There are the fried ones and the grilled ones. The fried ones are very crispy. Sauces are amazing. No complains. The grilled ones are tender. Just the perfect fried chickens. Servers were extremely lively. The food was very quick. They play Kpop concert in the restaurant. Korean vibes at heart, I love that! Parking was free. read more

I took away the original oven baked wings. I was very skeptical of getting that option since it was the only options available for a lunch five piece. However, I did really like the way it tasted as an alternative option from fried. The service was quick and efficient, however, I had to wait 15 minutes for my order to be done. Although I did not stay in the restaurant seems to be like a fast food type of restaurant with good vibe , read more

I love Vons Chicken. The food is delicious but this will be the last time I come here. I spent $49 on 20 "chicken wings" and onion wings for my family. First of all, the definition of a chicken wing is 3 distinct parts. At Vons, they found the drumette and the wingette as separate pieces. Totally wrong and false advertising. The sides of cole slaw and pickled radish is not proportionate to a FULL order of "chicken wings". The order of onion rings claim to be 12, but can you really measure by the numbers as a small ring is certainly less food than a larger ring. Lucky me, I only got 10 rings instead of 12. On the website and in the restaurant, they have a January special. If you order anything "FULL," you get 3 oven roaster garlic chicken pieces for free. Oh, but since I order through the Yelp app which is a link to Grubhub, I not only paid HIGHER PRICES but I wasn't eligible for the special. And I picked up the order, it was not delivery. What gives, Yelp? Bottom line - sucked into paying higher prices, not entitled to the restaurant's special, and my order was short. Delicious food but I will never return. Ok, bye. read more

You think you've had all the Korean fried chicken in LA, but then I came across this place and their flavors sound amazing I had to try it! You can also choose the spicy level on the chicken as well. I got their brand new flavor, "Crispy Real Garlic Fried Chicken." It has tons of garlic sauce over the super crispy fried chicken pieces! Half order of 4 wings & 3 drumsticks are $18.99 just FYI. BTW, their Honey Butter French fries are so good it's really addicting! Plenty of parking spaces available in this plaza, which is always a plus in my books! read more

This is one of my favorite Korean chicken places in the South Bay. Five stars : customer service fresh orders stamp cards monthly special promos their crunchy fried chicken My family picks up fried chicken from here regularly. And we always get the same thing 1. Full order wings - crunchy fried They use a special batter and it gives it a different crunch to the chicken wings. We especially love this chicken because there is no added spice therefore even my 2 year old son can eat this well. Usually when I get chicken wings from other stores - they still have some kind of spice that makes it spicy for the little ones. My 6 year old devours the chicken wings 2. Full order wings - Yang yum (spicy or mild) We usually get mild for our family but when we get this for our friends we always go with the spicy. They are so good and irresistible. Such a popular dish for potlucks!! Every month this location has promos and deals. They seem to want their customers to try out the other flavors so always ask what the promo is for the month. Inside the location is quite small so not too for large groups to dine in One of the reasons we love coming here is the customers service. There is one gentleman that always tries to greet their customers in Korean (clearly he's not Korean) and the level of politeness from him really leaves the place with a pleasant feeling. They also have a stamp card therefore for us we always fill it up and receive a fee half order of your choice. read more

I've heard about Vons in Norcal and I'm so happy it's in SoCal now! Padak (green onion chicken) - Crispy Chicken with Mustard Flavor and Sweet Wine Flavor Sauce and green onion Our absolute favorite! I'm not a fan of green onions, but the combination is magical. You get the sweet and salty notes and it's balanced so well. Soy & Black Vinegar Chicken - Sweet harmony of sour taste of black vinegar and salty taste of soy sauce Really good! It's not too sour, don't worry. Crispy Yang-Nyum - Crispy Chicken with Sweet and Sour or Spicy Tasty Marinated Seasoned Chicken Loved the sauce on this! The mild isn't too spicy, so try spicy if you want a kick! Boneless Ssam - A premium menu of boneless chicken thigh meat wrapped in ssam radish and dipped in fresh colorful vegetables and sauce I've never seen this before and was in awe about how delicious it worked together. The ssam radish is pickled and goes well with the chicken and veggies nicely. The boneless chicken is so good on its own - I kept eating it non-stop! Kimchi Fried Rice - My first time I'd seen bell peppers in kimchi fried rice. Very solid! Not to mention, their fried chicken is huge!! Can't wait to come back! read more

Why would you put vons chicken in the same plaza as Vons supermarket, who serves fried chicken?! We meant to eat at kyo-ru ramen but they no longer had outdoor seating like Vons (and almost every other restaurant on this strip) did. The lunch specials drew us in. The fried chicken was delightfully crisp and not greasy. The lunch combo comes with a choice of fries or rice, coleslaw or pickled radish. The roast chicken in the mini ssam combo was fantastic too. I wasn't expecting a delightful and colorful low carb veggie plate at a fried chicken place. They have a few interesting slightly nicer sodas but I'm a bit baffled it was two cream sodas instead of more variety. It was pretty quiet but it still took a little longer than the 10-15 minutes we were told. It was worth it because everything came out freshly made but we were in a little bit of a rush. I would order online if coming again since outdoor seating got us takeout packaging anyways I get ads for this place on Instagram regularly read more

This is a Korean chicken place that has both fried and oven roasted chicken. They have different flavors to choose from. I got the fried honey butter, garlic, oven vinegar and vons special sauce which is bbq sauce. The fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. The oven roasted is a healthy option with a nice glaze. The presentation was nice. Inside it is casual and clean. There are multiple tables to eat. There is a big parking lot outside. The servers were nice. read more

Definitely a go gotta. While driving by I see this place and figured I'd give it a shoot. I walked in the staff were so friendly and helpful to me. Was a little bit pricey but so is everything now a days. Anyway got my order to go and when I opened my bag at home it was a blessing to my nose and tastebuds. The chicken was moist and still hot. I definitely will be coming back soon. 5 thumbs up read more

Came in on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too crowded. Ambiance is open and clean. Service was extremely nice and helpful. The batter of the Korean fried chicken is very well balanced - not too thin and not too thick. Very crispy and not greasy at all. I like that they provide a variety of flavors different from other spots. I also really like how you can get a mix of wings (flats/drums) and also actual full sized drumsticks! I haven't seen this combo at other KFC spots. I definitely prefer the crispy fried over the roasted oven chicken, but it's a good option if y'all tryna be healthy! I really like their variety of flavors here -Honey Butter was my fav! This spot is worth a try if you're in the area! -Cheddar French Fries -Roasted Oven Vons Special Chicken -Crispy Fried Honey Butter Chicken -Crispy Fried Real Garlic -Roasted Oven Soy + Black Vinegar read more

Ever since our favorite Korean fried chicken moved away, Vons chicken has become the highest contender for best flavor and fry for the chicken. We have a weird tradition in our family to order KFC (Korean fried chicken) during halloween and Von's is a wonderful option. Best order: - half chicken of crispy fried - half soy Just wish their radish was a little different! I like that it's in the same plaza as in n out and home goods so if I want to do some home shopping ahead and also grab in n out fries to pair, I can do so. Because it's in this huge plaza, parking is never difficult- just be prepared to fight thru people trying to get in line for the in n out though. I swear in n out lines now a days is becoming as cruel as people camping out in the olden days for Black Friday deals. Sometimes I think the line queue workers look like police enforcement or maybe my eyes just turn them into authority because In N Out guests can be aggressive in their cars! read more

Super excited that I was able to enjoy their crispy soy chicken;) If buying 1/2 which is 10 pieces, it is quite expensive of $17.51. But for that price, I say treat yourself with such crunchy chicken wings, and the flavor is heavenly. Sadly on Monday, I thought they were open. Make sure to check the business hours as I was probably delirious due to being hungry and didn't check online. We have tried the crispy fried cheddar and that literally got me hooked with Vons!!! Be careful because IMO it can be quite addictive lol It does come with pickled radish and coleslaw too. Parking here is decent and close to IHOP and Homegoods. read more

Have to update my review due to my most recent experience. First of all, $18 for 10 wings is already ridiculous. Then the audacity to give me the SMALLLLLEST wings I've ever seen in my life! They look like miniature wings no joke. I couldn't believe it. Even the radish only had 4-5 tiny cubes of radish. Everything is nickel and dimed. +$1 for wings, +$1 for soy flavor. bbq chicken is slightly more expensive but a MUCH better value. I seriously cannot believe how small the chicken wing was. I paid $30 for 10 pc chicken and fries. Unfortunately will not be back anymore. read more

Ordered these wings for Super Bowl Sunday and they were amazing. Got my food relatively fast for the occasion. Despite being the end of the world the workers were nice to me. These wings are so crispy. So crispy in fact I left the bones clean. Nothing was wasted. I typically get weird about eating the tendons at the end of wings because it just sounds gross and paints a weird picture in my head as I chew but the wings were so crispy even the tendons were good. We got soy, Cheddar, and bbq wings. A ton of fries. And then we went next door and got two boxes of the two hands hot dogs. Pretty good combo to watch the game. read more

tip: go for the crunchy fried chicken over the crispy if you are just getting plain . after trying both, I've found the crunchy version has way more flavor on its own. The crispy fried chicken, unless you add sauce or something else, just comes off kind of bland. read more

Their chicken is well seasoned. Kids and I always get fried chicken mixed with cheese. Sometimes I get the honey butter and the garlic flavored ones. It's addicting, I prefer it more over the other kbbq chickens that I know and are around. Steamed rice is a must. And those pickled radishes... Dreaming when is my next date with them. Staffs are ok and chill. Most grateful for giving us their new product, garlic chicken for us to sample. It was good. Can't wait to visit this place again and bury my teeth on those Korean fried chicken! read more

Too many flavors to choose from so there's hard to not find one you like. Surprisingly I liked the fried chicken over the baked chicken. I think my favorite was the crispy soy fried chicken. However, after having the honey butter fries (OMG!!! in love - never had fries like this) I think the honey butter fried chicken would be the winner for me. Absolutely great staff and service. I wish I could remember the staff's name that provided the most service (25 year old guy, well mannered - that's all I remember lol) he deserves a raise, he's amazing! read more

Finally a rare gem where they serve roasted chicken instead of just korean fried chicken. I recommend getting their volcano spicy & soy vinegar chicken. These are my go tos. My only con is going to be the price, its a little bit on the pricier side for a whole roasted chicken, besides that amazing place. I have never ate in, only ordered online. Staff was nice every time. read more

This place was pretty good. The portions are huge and the service was great. I got a chance to try 3 different flavors. My favorite was Crispy Soy Chicken. That was amazing. The other flavors were Special Sauce Chicken and Crispy Yang Nyum Chicken. They have both oven and fried chicken. I had their fries. It was like having dessert. Something I had never tasted. They also have Jinro in different flavors. There are other sides and flavors I want to try. Hopefully soon. read more

Vons Chicken is now officially my go to fried chicken place. I stopped in on Saturday afternoon to satisfy my craving for some crunchy goodness and it really did not disappoint. Firstly, I admit I'm a bit of a fried chicken snob. I am usually not impressed but I fell in love after this visit. Presentation is immaculate and the smell is amazing. I ordered both fried chicken and oven baked to have some variety: the crispy soy, yang-nyum, the special sauce and the palak chicken. Everything tasted SO FRESH, you can really tell that they only use premium ingredients. They use their own special blend of seasoning in the batter, but it's not so overbearing that it masks the flavor of the meat, which was amazingly clear. I also tried the "ssam" which is oven baked chicken that you wrap in thinly sliced radish and eat with fresh veggies. Super refreshing, the pickle really enhanced the chicken. Service was impeccable. I had a lot of questions and they were patient and knowledgable and even gave recommendations when I couldn't decide. I ended up getting the honey butter french fries and it was such a new experience. If you like the korean honey butter chips, you'll definitely like the fries. It is located in a plaza so there is plenty of parking, and I didn't have to wait too long to get my food which is always a plus. read more

Check out Von's Chicken in Torrance!! They have locations only in NorCal and Hawaii but now they have opened their first in SoCal! I'm so glad I got to come and try such a wide variety of items from their menu. I got to try some of their popular fried chicken options such as the crispy soy and yang nyum. If you like a bit of spice I recommend the yang nyum but my personal favorite was the crispy soy (perfect texture and flavor combo of garlic and soy!). Not only that but their honey butter fries were bomb (definitely get this if you like honey butter chips). What makes Von's special is their choice of oven chicken and boneless chicken "ssam" as well. Their special sauce oven chicken was soft and had a nice mild flavor. The boneless ssam is meant to be wrapped with radish and their sides of bell pepper slices. I recommend trying these items if you want to opt for a healthier option from fried chicken! Overall I really enjoyed getting to come here. Service was so kind and everything tasted so great. Would love to come back another time! read more
