The restaurant charged me full price of alcohols instead of happy hour price, they promised me they’ll refund money back through the bank but it’s been 2 months and I haven’t seen anything, terrible experience! I won’t delete it until I get the proper refund back!

The staff are very nice and give great recommendations for drinks. They will even cater drinks to your preferences. The bar feels friendly, welcoming and has a good atmosphere. The food is also great, I the charred octopus, spicy garlic noodles and classic sabayon and they were all delicious.

Great local spot serving fantastic cocktails and decent Korean fusion food

POOR service and poor food, does not understand how the branding can be high-end French & Korean dining? The fried calamari was like what I bought frozen calamari at Costco, and NO ANY servant for me for the whole night, even nobody asked me to add water, additionally the portion was really small, and waited one food for almost ONE HOUR??? Really poor!!

The best bartender in my experience has been Chi. Not only is he attentive to the customers but on my sporadic visits to the bar, he has had the attention of either the entire bar counter or half of it, engaging each and everyone there while simultaneously making drinks. I've observed many customers go out of their way to greet Chi and thank him on their way in and out even when he's off the clock. Chi is definitely the most vibrant and energetic employee to date.
Two other employees I'd like to give props to are Brandon and Barsha. Brandon has consistently been an amazing server every time I've visited and Barsha has been a lovely and wonderful server. Both Brandon and Barsha deliver when it comes to customer service and vibes.
There are two other bartenders, Louise and Angie, they are both solid at what they do but I have to say, Louise can be quite disruptive and very loud to the point that everyone can clearly hear him. He's a funny bartender and solid at making drinks but I do question the appropriateness of some of the topics he'll be discussing or having with customers as they touch upon sensitive things that I won't disclose on here. Angie is solid at what she does, delivers customer service when needed but I have to take points off for her mood swings that I've observed. I've witnessed her being rude to her own coworkers several times thus far which can't be good for team morale. Other than the things noted on Angie and Louise, they're both solid at what they do but your mileage may vary with them. This is why I make mention of Chi being the vibe at Bar Bon Mot because whether he's in a good mood or not, he's always consistent.
I've never been to a bar that has delivers an experience like Bar Bon Mot does. It's clear that Chi has established something of a clientele of regulars that seem to come in just for Chi. The difference is also day and night when Chi is there and not there. I hope to continue seeing Chi grow and develop as well as the team because he is definitely bringing in good things for Bar Bon Mot. Even just watching from a distance, you can clearly see the fun that Chi brings to everyone at the bar whether it's him dancing while making drinks, taking care of customers, to asking nerdy things like if you like pokemon, he's definitely an essential to the Bar Bon Mot team.
The manager at Bar Bon Mot also deserves praise. It's clear that the manager of Bar Bon Mot is the reason why things run smooth at the bar. I've single handedly watched him step up and fulfill roles when others can't be it whether they're stacked on orders or members of the team didn't show up. You are awesome Anthony, you and Chi definitely keep the front of house running smooth along with Brandon and Barsha.

Went there for my birthday but was so disappointed. Very creative dishes and nice presentation but poor execution. The lamb lollipop lacked flavor, and the beef short rib dish was lukewarm. The Octopus was the only worth noting dish. The cocktail was just OK. OCK is way better in both drinks and food. Also, the screaming kids ruined the vibe.

I wanted it to be good but it wasnt. Short rib fatty and barely warm. Apps nothing to write home about. Drinks are excellent. 5% health surcharge

They announced they're open for lunch on social media a few months ago, Google says they're open, we make the drive over, and they're closed.

This place is ROBBING people! The food is horrendous and the prices are rocket high! Food comes out cold or lukewarm. Everything tastes like they were frozen food that's been reheated.
The worst dish was the garlic noodles! The noodles were soggy, as if it was for my grandma with no teeth to eat. The noodles were also cut into short 2in pieces for some reason.
There's a 5% extra charge added to every bill, for the waiters. The suggested tip starts from 18% which is wild for the horrendous food quality.

Please DOUBLE CHECK YOUR BILL! Someone mentioned over-billing in the review below, and the same thing happened to us. They randomly added about five items to our bill. Initially, we paid it, but a few minutes later, we started wondering how the total could be so high. When we checked the receipt, we noticed items had been added that we never ordered. When we pointed it out, they said they would correct it, but instead of refunding the amount, they charged it to the credit card again!
Was expecting good fun food but the food is kinda mid. Everything just mid and doesn’t leave good impression. The restaurant should have signature dishes and game up their recipe.

The vegetarian garlic noodles were very disappointing. The dish was overwhelmed by a thick, excessive sauce that completely masked the natural flavors of the vegetables and noodles. It was also quite greasy and felt unhealthy, much like the cauliflower appetizer. On a positive note, the shorter male waiter around 7pm was incredibly sweet, kind, and attentive, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Unfortunately, he left early, but we made sure to leave a good tip, hoping he receives it.

This place is lipstick on a pig. Looks nice, but food is terrible. They actually served microwaved MiLa dumplings from Costco! The bottle of alcohol wasn’t shaken up when served…ruined the taste and all the sediment was dumped into our glass on the last poor. Octopus was very fishy and not fresh…defrosted. I would advise manager to reach out. The service was disappointing and the food was even sadder. (Ps, we were the only ones in the restaurant and it took forever to get the food and the check had to be requested 3 times!)

Everything we had was tasty. The mussels dish was our favorite. Garlic noodle was also really good. The salmon mousse, we couldn’t really taste the salmon in it but it tasted fine. We also ordered catch of the day dish (not shown in picture), the fish was light and crispy but the kimchi fried rice it came with was lacking; it tasted more like lightly seasoned fried rice—couldn’t taste the kimchi. Overall, the presentation was great and taste was enjoyable.
