Go somewhere else. 1. I was over charged by almost $10, after I questioned the amount, she didn't bother to go over the items with me she stayed quite and instead of giving me an itemized bill she gave me the one with the total cost. I know she understood what I was referring to. 2. How do you price 5 pieces of drumsticks for $17? That's insane! And it wasn't even flavorful, I had to add sauce myself. 3. Half doesn't mean what you'd think, wings (10) is half compared to drumstick (5), why not just have the same count across the board and change the prices instead? 4. The japchae was flavorless 5. Sweet potato fries were most likely previously frozen and they deep fried them. Not good. 6. The kimchi fried rice was also flavorless. I paid a total of $66 for 10 pieces of chicken and 3 mediocre sides.

Chicken was fresh and flavorful! Everyone loved it! Great crunch and flavorful chicken, thoroughly cooked. Service was friendly and quick. Ordered to go close to closing and chicken was cooked fresh!

korean fried chicken (kfc) in dublin...strip mall location next to luv 2 play...actually located inside bangkok jeong korean bbq restaurant...does have a signage outside, but inside is mainly a kbbq restaurant setup...vons chicken is like a ghost kitchen within...walking in during weekend lunch hours before super bowl....placing an order of the full crunch fried chicken $36.99 (+$1 for wings) and full honey butter crispy fried chicken $36.99 (+$1 for wings)...paying about $85 for 2 full order of kfc wings...roughly 30 minutes...told to wait at the bench by the door and not in the restaurant...restaurant was mostly empty, but constant flow of delivery drivers walking in and out to pick up delivery orders...long wait, but finally ready...plastic bag and boxes partially open to keep it vented to retain the crunch...traveled well and ready for the super bowl...vons kfc was quite popular...the unique sweet and salty flavors of the honey butter is excellent and the most popular choice...the crunch fried is good also...

This gotta be one of the best fried chickens in East Bay. The crunch is real in this place! I placed an order online and 20 mins later it was ready. I was surprised that their chicken was still hot and crunchy after driving back for about 15 mins. We ordered the crispy chicken, half mild and half spicy. Flavors were spot on, although we might try the extra spicy next time. Their mild should be called sweet, but it was the perfect one for the kids. My only feedback will be on the fries. Wasn't impressed at all, they felt like frozen fries, hence the missing star.

We placed an order for takeout, as the establishment offers an interesting of food choices. I was particularly intrigued by their Korean noodle dish, Japchae, and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it turned out to be slightly too salty for my personal palate. The fried chicken, on the other hand, was delightful. Although, if I may be honest, I personally prefer it either plain or with a mere hint of seasoning. As for the garlic chicken, it was truly scrumptious. However, the sweet potato fries failed to meet my expectations. Overall it wasn't bad. Maybe good a once a month thing.

my dad was a culinary arts, instructor, professional chef I'm very picky. I just wanted to stop and try there fried chicken to see if it was better than the competitions in the area, what I found is interesting, there's no breast it's just legs with lots of meat or wings that was kind of confusing, but so delicious. I did not for the honey butter because that's just a powder. Nothing special. I waited the extra 20 minutes it takes when you say I want them. El natural did not disappoint. I got five drumsticks for under $20. I couldn't even finish the fifth one. It was delicious can't speak for the rest of the food there, butthose were great

Come here for the chicken. I Have tried some of the other dishes, and they are okay- just average. It is the chicken that really stands out. There are a lot of spicy flavors you can choose from, and beware- the spicy ones are spicy (red burn). They also have non spicy options which are delicious. Definitely more affordable at lunch due to lunch specials. I recommend getting half orders so you can try more flavors. You can also order to go online.

This review is based off a DoorDash order. Unfortunately,DoorDash decision to group 6 orders resulted in an 1h45min delivery from pickup (we live about 15 mins away). Food arrived soggy and cold, which we heated in the oven. The rice cakes come in a prepackaged white square box; sauce was tasty - the rice cakes were hard and tough to chew. The tornado potato role visually looked great, though the skins were overcooked and not enough potato on the skewer to make it have any substance. Fried chicken was the highlight. Juicy, fried great and seasoned wonderfully. I wouldn't recommend ordering deliver but if we do go in to visit the restaurant, it'll be for the fried chicken k

I tried the honey butter chicken, and there were so many different flavors to choose from. You can't mix and match the flavors unless you specifically buy the (honey butter/cheddar) wing combo. The half box comes with 10 wings. They also offer a new item, the "potato on a stick." Sometimes, I drive all the way to Santa Cruz boardwalk for this tasty meal, but luckily, Vons has it too! The food is made fresh, it took about 15 minutes for my order to be ready. I decided to take my food "To Go" but the dinning area is a great size and there's plenty of parking. With a variety of flavors, you can customize your potatoes to your liking. I highly recommend this place. It might be challenging for first-time customers to decide on flavors, so if possible, do your research before going. It's a lot to choose from :)
Vons is my go to korean fried chicken. I love that it's not super greasy, as sometimes fried chicken can be, leaving me feeling sick after. We got takeout, and by the time it got home 20 minutes later, chicken was still crispy, not soggy. Chicken is also nice and juicy (not dry). Definitely hits the spot. Yummm!

Big place with lots of seating. Ordered the beef Folsom bibambap and it cam quickly along with 6 ban Chan dishes. Food was piping hot the way I like it. Fast and friendly service.

Very rude - when picking up and signing the bill, the employee said I’m too slow to sign the bill.
