Crispy Fried Chicken (Full) wings only!
Therese J.

This location, specifically, is consistent with their crispy fried chicken we often order for pick up to take home for dinner for those nights we don't feel like cooking! The consistency is what keeps us coming back and service too! It is always a pleasure when every worker we've dealt with has a smile on their face upon entering the establishment. The ambiance is upbeat with music bumpin all the time! The dining area is always clean. Terry is always a pleasure and very friendly too! You won't be disappointed!

Menu showing options and NO MENTION OF SAUCES OR GLAZES
Andrea B.

We came here because Vons Chicken on Branham Lane Closed. The menu here offers Fried Chicken. No Crunch Chicken like the other Vons locations. Also, the menu Clearly Does Not Mention Any Sauce for the fried chicken. (See photos) And the cashier did not mention any sauce. But the Fried Chicken was coated in a glaze/sauce which is not at all what we wanted or expected. It tasted fine but I would not order it again. The cashier did not understand why the sauce missing from the menu is a problem. The store was clean. The service was otherwise nice. But this is not the Vons like the other locations.

I love the pickled daikon!

I'm not sure why I haven't reviewed this place yet - but here goes. I've been ordering from Vons Chicken for at least a couple of years and this is my favorite location. It's on the way from work when I go home, so it's also a convenient location as well. I usually order ahead and it's ready when I get there (10-20 mins, depending on which chicken I order). I've tried most of the flavors and my favorite is the spicy yangnyum - it has a good amount of heat, but it's not overpowering. I also enjoy the fries - cheddar, honey butter and sweet potato fries. I usually go for extra crispy and every single flavor has been great. I love how the flavor is infused into the chicken and every bite is delicious. The fries could be crispier, but that's my preference - they are good as is. Service has always been quick and friendly when I've picked up my order. I've never ate in the restaurant, but it seems like a good place to chat and hang out. Every time I've been here - people are sitting around and seem to be enjoying their meals. There is quiet music playing and plenty of seating available. Everything also looks very clean and calm.

Crispy Padak Chicken (Lunch Special)
Maggie L.

Grabbed takeout lunch from Von's Chicken in Saratoga and it definitely hit the spot! We ordered the Paldak Chicken--the one topped with green onions--and it was delicious. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the generous layer of fresh green onions added a nice kick while making it feel just a little bit healthier (gotta love getting your veggies in, right? ). Service was great too! The staff was super helpful and answered all our questions with patience and a smile, even though we were ordering to-go. Overall, tasty food, friendly service, and a smooth pickup process. Will definitely be back to try more!

We love the padek flavor chicken and the honey butter fries!
Gina D.

We love Vons and are so glad they opened one in Saratoga!! The chicken was so good and the honey butter fries are really addicting. Great and friendly service, and there's seating for about 22 people inside and 12 outside. They were also so sweet and gave our kids balloons during their grand opening!

Crispy Fried with Honey Butter (Half)
Cindy N.

Dominic was knowledgeable and kind to accommodate to the trending flavor "Prinkle" in Korea. I ordered the honey butter and he put in a Cheddar flavor extra to replicate the "Prinkle". So very kind and the restaurant was clean! I love dining here and connecting with the employees!

Cute Interior
Nika N.

Really delicious & yummy chicken here! Vons doesn't fail me when it comes to their crispy chicken. For this location specifically, sometimes it does feel like it's hidden, due to it being in the same plaza as Mitsuwa & Kinokuniya, just on the other side. But I think it's worth the visit, especially when you're crazing some small munchies. The service I got with my friend was super sweet, the staff were very nice. There is parking right in front of their location & the restroom was kept clean too.

Crispy wings and legs!  Von's Saratoga!  For great fried chicken, tasty varieties, very friendly and helpful customer service! Thank you!

Great fried chicken Friendly & helpful service Clean & nice seating for dining in Thank you

Cesar J S.

Let me start off by saying I love me some fried chicken! We ordered the soy garlic glaze with fried chicken and let me tell you the flavoring is amazing! The chicken was fresh crunchy fully cooked and the flavors were 10 out of 10. We went with a mild sauce and it was perfect. The service was great and the restaurant was very clean and they were very fast! Will definitely be coming back here again. I highly recommend trying their food.

Crispy Yangnyeom (Lunch Special)
Louis K.

- Chicken is freshly cooked, not refried or left cold in the warmer. It was very juicy and crispy. - Fries are also freshly prepared, very hot and crispy, fluffy. - I asked for Mild. And it really is mild, which is great. I got annoyed with other Korean fried chicken places when their mild was still too spicy - The restaurant is very clean, neatly organized. The amount of food I got for their lunch special for 12.99 is really amazing. I would visit again with friends next time.

Our order came out within 15 minutes after the kiosk order and everything thing was hot. Fries chickens were crispy. Ttokboggi was good as expected but having it together with the fries chicken balanced the fried food. Glad we did not add French fries. The place was not crowded at all and so it was a nice experience.

Amelin N.

Great chicken, and rarely ever busy. The honey butter wings are a must try! Ordered over the phone for pick up and it was super quick and easy. You could also order online or on the kiosk inside. Took barely any time for the order to be ready and it tasted fresh. The pickled radish also tasted good and did not stink too much (unlike some other places). Wished the honey butter seasoning was tossed more evenly as I would've preferred it to be coated on all sides vs just the top even though it was a generous portion of seasoning.

Grace S.

The cutest note from the Vons Chicken staff and the best way to end the week. I've been ordering from here for a while now, and as a Korean, I love me some KFC. Lately nothing's really been hitting the spot... until my husband and I found this place in Saratoga! Their fried chicken is always perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I know I sound like a commercial, but I mean it. The service is always great and the quality of the food is always consistent. Plus, they're right next to Mitsuwa and other fun spots, so whenever we're craving KFC, this is our go-to. Would recommend 10/10.

Showing off the food and the three finger gloves that make dining a beezeeee and not messy!

I came here on a weekend evening with a few people. Since it was a hot day, we ordered some cold…read morenoodles, and we wanted to try their tofu soup. For the cold noodles, it was pretty refreshing and a bit light in flavor. It came in a icy vinegary broth with noodles, half a boiled egg, pickled daikon and some pieces of galbi (short rib). Also had option of adding more vinegar and/or mustard if you wanted. The noodles were chewy but that's how it is, recommend asking for some scissors to cut the noodles if it's hard to chew. For the spicy buckwheat cold noodles, it had much more flavor, had a gochujang base, and thicker. It came with half a boiled egg, pickled daikon and pieces of galbi. For the tofu soup, we got the chicken and mushroom which was fine. In addition, the sides were good as well. Service was good.

We ordered the beef soup and the appetizer short ribs, which is about 6 pieces. The sides were good, special shout out to the warm jjapchae! The short ribs came out sizzling, and had a great char with a sweet soy sauce flavor. Meat was tender and had the perfect chew to it, such a comfort meal with the rice. The beef soup came boiling, and there was a generous amount of beef, mushrooms, and tofu. The only complaint I have is the soup ratio was less than what I'm used to so about halfway through the pot there wasn't much soup left to pour onto the rice the way I normally do. But that's not a bad thing, means you're getting more protein! Service was great, but it's a bit expensive from what I'm used to so I docked a star. I'll check out other places and see if this is just the normal pricing for the area.

We ordered the marinated meats combo and wanted to add the fried dumplings, but were told they were sold out. This is actually the second time we've come here hoping to try the dumplings, and they've been unavailable both times. Since we came on a quiet weekday, I was surprised they were already out. It also would have been nice if our server had suggested another appetizer instead of just telling us they were unavailable. When we first sat down, our server asked if we'd been there before, which we had, but neither our server nor the person grilling our meat introduced themselves. Throughout the meal, there wasn't much interaction. I also asked for bowls of rice when we ordered, and was told they came with the combo. After all the meat had been served, we still hadn't received the rice, so I had to ask for it again in the middle of our meal. One thing that would have made the experience better was if the staff member grilling the meat had let us know what was being cooked. They quietly grilled and served everything without saying which cuts we were eating, so we were left guessing until I finally asked. A little explanation would have gone a long way, especially for a restaurant that's known for tableside service. The food itself was definitely the highlight. The beef belly and hanger steak were both delicious and I'd order them again. That said, when you're spending well over $100 for a combo, you expect service that feels a little more welcoming and attentive. The restaurant wasn't busy during our visit, so it wasn't a situation where the staff seemed overwhelmed. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but the service felt uninterested, and that's what kept this experience from being a great one.

One of the most popular K-food restaurants in the Bay Area, and their food is always a 10/10!…read more I've come back here so many times because all of their soups are so comforting, especially the galbitang - my absolute favorite. It feels just like a warm hug in a bowl! Their cold noodles, both spicy and non-spicy versions, are refreshing and perfect for cooling down summer heat. We also almost always order the mo deum soo yook for extra protein. It's a combination plate with boiled beef brisket, tail, and tendons. You will have to season them yourself with salt and pepper, but beef is always so soft and tender. I highly recommend ordering this only if you're dining with a group of 3 or more because the portion is huge! After finishing your meal, they'll serve you a yakult, super yummy and great for digestion (super thoughtful of them) They're busy and almost always have a waitlist, especially during peak dinner hours. From my experience, the longest I've waited was about 45 minutes, but normally it's only around 20-30 minutes. There's a boba shop nearby where you can grab a drink while waiting. Overall, I have nothing to complain about with this place. Try it once and you'll understand why everyone loves it!

Came here on a Saturday around noon and thankfully we were early enough to avoid a wait. they don't allow outside drinks, which is a bummer because it was so hot and our drinks would go bad if left in the car. I got the galbi tang and they gave a good amount of beef! I was able to take home for a second meal :) i also love their kimchi. maybe around 10 minutes after we got our soup, we had asked for refills on the sides. when we got the refills, we also got our bill. we were no where close to being done eating and the servers would constantly check our table to see if we're done or needed boxes. while we were boxing our leftovers, the server aggressively took our soups (half way in the air trying to pour it) from us and packed it herself. my friend was trying to get the bone out first but the server was just awfully impatient. The whole dine-in experience felt very uncomfortable, especially since we were still actively eating.

We ordered the Stone Pot Bibimbap, Soft Tofu Soup, and the Korean BBQ Beef Short Ribs (Galbi). The short ribs were, without a doubt, the highlight of our meal. They were perfectly marinated, incredibly tender, juicy, and literally melted in our mouths. Easily one of the best Korean BBQ short ribs we've ever had. The stone pot bibimbap was also delicious, with crispy rice on the bottom and fresh, flavorful toppings. The soft tofu soup was hot, comforting, and full of flavor. The restaurant was very clean, cozy, and welcoming. The side dishes were fresh and tasty, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. We're so glad we came back, and we'll definitely be returning again. Highly recommend Omogari to anyone looking for authentic and delicious Korean food in San Jose!

Also, even though there is a small parking lot behind their building, do not park there. That is for employees only. And before you ask, no, I did not park there. I'm a rule follower. Just sharing for your information. There is always plenty of street parking. Just make sure you feed your meter. I paid $3 for an hour and a half of parking. Again, this update is after multiple meals with different people. SJ Omogari continues to be a go to favorite, especially if you want Meat Jun. I've tried it at other restaurants, and none come close to the flavorful, tender version from SJ Omogari. My friend and I had lunch at SJ Omogari yesterday. The tables seemed very close together. It's good for the restaurant to get more people, but it felt a little closed in for my personal space preferences. This was my friend's first visit, and she loved it! I ordered Meat Jun (duh), and we shared a dumpling tofu soup. I was feeling bold, so we asked for medium spicy. I was sweating, but it was very flavorful and I kept eating as the sweat dripped down my head. My friend ordered the chicken bibimbap, which SJ Omogari calls, "Chicken Ricebowl." That stone bowl was SUPER HOT! It was sizzling when served, and we could still see steam as she packed up her leftovers! My friend loved the crispy rice on the bottom. SJ Omogari is on the pricy side, but still worth it. Go!
