I went to Bonchon as my regular Korean fried chicken place was closed. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and the taste. I did Take-Out and the chicken remained crunchy even after my ride home. The flavors were subtle and the sauce was nice and light which I preferred. I also enjoyed the Cole slaw which was not too mayonaisy.

Service was great but the food is very sub par. Not enough sauce, grilled chicken for tacos was a bit dry. The slaw was nice but yeah, very underwhelming.

The location feels like it just gets a wipe down with water no cleaner. The food was alright. I've dined at other Bonchon locations and it didn't taste the same. My friend requested for the veggies in his dish to be chopped up, and the poor waiter had to inform us the kitchen stated they could not chop the veggies. Weird, chefs who don't know how to use knives? The tepenyaki wasn't cooked well, too soft on the inside for how hard it was fried. The chef clearly loves adding sauces to the dishes as it was drenched in mayo and bbq sauce. The staff were kind otherwise

Just ordered food from this location on door dash once I received my food it was ice cold and no sauce on the chicken and my wife’s bulgogi was un fit to eat, it was more of a stew and flavorless. I called this location and spoke with a manager but was told they use a “standard” amount of sauce I offered to bring the food back for a refund but the manager denied a refund. Very unprofessional and was getting a disgusting tone over the phone and said there is nothing he can do. for 100$ of almost no food I expect ok food and ok service but this place lacks the basic standards I get better service from jack in the box and that says a lot. Save your money and avoid this San Leandro location.

I hate to give a poor rating. The chicken seems to somewhat hard and only placing the sauce, loosens up the hardness. It seems to have been cooked well ahead and then sort of sit all day or for hours. Sometimes the chicken is so stringy and chewy where by you have to spit it out, which seems to be aign that it's a bit old. I didnt need to do that this visit but in past visits. Maybe ensure the chicken is more fresh perhaps and dont let it sit out longer than it should. Their flavors are fire and the fried rice compliments the fried chicken well. I always ask for more onions because i love scallions.

Fried chicken was great, generous and prompt. Good kimchi! Would return, and order weirder stuff next time
Worst service ever! I used their website to create an order for delivery, which showed confirmed and that delivery driver was waiting for order to be completed, only to be canceled by Bonchon 10 min prior to when it should have been delivered. Called the restaurant to be informed that I can re-order via DoorDash if I wished to but that order was refunded. Wtf? Who cancels an order for no reason and then asks the customer to re-order? No thank you, I won’t be spending my money at Bonchon again.

I love Korean foods here. I've tried a few things on the menu, and they are always tasty.
Portion wise when it comes to the Bibimbap do not I repeat do not get it. It felt as if it was a kids' size Bimbibap. I even asked the cashier if it was the appropriate size because I remember when I ordered it, it looked a lot more, and to which he replied, that's the right amount. Please, I advise everyone to go to a Korean restaurant. I beg you to save your time and money to a real Korean restaurant. But the atmosphere and cashiers are nice though <3
