We were craving for Korean fried chicken wings and found this place in west San Jose. Their menu had crispy fried and non-fried options, and each had a few flavors to choose from. There were a few side dish choices too. We got the Yangnyeom flavor for fried combo of drumsticks and wings, as well as Tteokbokki. The wings/drumsticks were crispy on the outside and tender inside. The Yangnyeom flavor was sweet but paired well with the chicken. We got medium hot and it only had a very light hint of spiciness. The Tteokbokki portion was quite big and it had rice cake, fish cake, cabbage, and two dumplings. The sauce was slightly spicy but flavorful. Our cravings were satisfied. Definitely a nice place to have quick bites of Korean fried chicken. read more

Am I the only person who finds it strange that they identify "drums" as "wings?" I purchased the lunch special and $2 upgraded to "wings" and I received 3 drums and 2 wings, only for the store to double down and say that the drums are part of the whole wing so it's considered a "wing?" Someone fix this ludicrous menu term!! I still don't understand the upgrade and what exactly am I getting for the upgrade? The wings are ok. read more

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. read more

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! read more

Love the black vinegar soy sauce chicken wings! Von does it the best. They're baked and not fried, so you don't feel it becoming too "heavy" as you would with fried chicken. Pay the extra for wings only, and it's worth it! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

Vons Saratoga - Crispy Padak Chicken (Lunch Special) - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Jose, California

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. read more

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. read more

- 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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I've been going to this Saratoga location 1-2 times a month. They have consistently great food and the friendliest staff. We usually order the crispy fried wings, half mild and half spicy, and they're always packed with flavor, perfectly hot, and super crispy. We also love getting the fries, onion rings, and fried mandu -- everything is delicious every time. This Saratoga Vons is clean and has TVs for entertainment, but we usually grab our food to go. Orders are always ready quickly and packaged neatly, which we really appreciate. We absolutely love coming here and highly recommend it! read more

Great spot for delicious fried chicken. I ordered the Yangnyum Chicken but without the rice. Same price and so worth it. I ate in the restaurant but I saw many to go orders, and I can see why. I can't explain how different it is from your usual fries chicken. The sauce made it even more delicious. The chicken when delivered to your table looks better than the photos on the menu. Elijah and his team are awesome! read more

Vons Saratoga - Delicious - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Jose, California

I got a chance to hit Vons on a Sunday right as they opened. I've been looking forward to this for a while. I left there with some mixed feelings. First off, the chicken is great! We got the extra crispy. The mandu was OK. If I ordered this again, I'd get it without any sauce or sauce on the side. The tteokboki was meh. Way overcooked, not enough veggies or spice. I know I shouldn't compare it to something you'd get at a sit-down Korean restaurant, but I was pretty disappointed it couldn't even compare to street-food level. Checking in and ordering at the kiosk was fine, the service was fine. But one thing that was kind of an issue is the lack of parking. The parking lot was bustling on a Sunday morning, but I was literally the only person in this restaurant. The ambiance was a little "Logan's Run" spooky. I think given any other circumstance, I would probably skip this entire shopping plaza, and go get a Popeye's down the street. read more

Delicious Korean fried and oven baked chicken. We got the crispy garlic and oven baked vons special and both were delicious. There was an amazing crunch on the fried chicken and the oven baked chicken had a really good cook. Careful with the portions though other wise you'll definitely be taking left overs! The music wasn't too loud and there's plenty of seats inside and out. Staff was friendly and helpful answering any and all questions. They also let me try the Padak and Yangnyeom sauces which I loved and need to get on my chicken next time. Definitely coming back soon! read more

Just yuck. We love Korean style fried chicken, but given all the positive reviews for Vons, maybe there are different styles and we weren't aware (and we've eaten at many places). We ordered the honey crispy, the garlic cruspy and the oven baked with Vons sauce. The Honey one (I assume) tasted like circus funnel cake on chicken. It was gross...I just spit it out. I can see how someone might like that, but the texture and flavor tasted cheap and fake. And the skin was a light flaky crisp, not the "traditional" double fried crispy taste. I just want to warn others that if you like BonChon or similar style, you will be disappointed by this. It's like expecting chicken and getting fish (sweet fish)....bleh. The oven version was okay, but it too tasted like fake/cheap sugar. I will say the chicken itself was quite tasty. I was hungry enough to pull off the outside and eat some of the chicken and it was good. But never again. read more

Delicious! I wasn't even hungry and I'm not the biggest fan of korean fried chicken but my friends wanted it and I still loved the food. The man who gave us our food handed us fries and extra wings for free. When interacting with the cashier, he was polite and smiled at me. Chicken was crispy even after sitting on the table for a while and the music was loud which is ideal for drinks with friends. I would come back, this location made me like chicken more :) read more

I think the ownership changed recently, and it's pretty great! I shared an order of the honey butter boneless and a side of fries with one other person, and honestly it was too much for us to finish. Super fair portions, fries had a great crisp, and I don't remember if it's always been a thing here, but they gave us these half gloves that kept our hands cleans while eating. most importantly the new ownership seems real nice Didn't catch the name of the person who was serving us, but he was very kind.
