Pre-pandemic this place was great, I work in the building and ordered a few times each week. Post-pandemic things have changed.........I've been charged $26 for a $21 meal, I've been charged for extra bugolgi a few times but didn't receive it, you're charged .10 convenience fee (I guess I'm inconveniencing them when I place an order), I ask for no mushroom but often to have to return the order or pull them out the bowl myself, today I placed an order and it took over 35 minutes...read full review

Bonchon Navy Yard offers a fun atmosphere and good food, with highlights like the Korean Tacos and Korean chicken. The ordering system through phones can be confusing, leading to dishes arriving at unusual times. While the wait staff is friendly, they tend to be more hands-off than expected. Some may find the self-service style and lack of personal attention lacking. However, the location is often praised for its attentive staff and delicious, hot dishes.
Customers find this spot to be a pretty fair-priced place for decent value food. The flavors are strong, and the restaurant serves as a solid fast casual spot, also good for takeout. The wings, especially the soy garlic flavor, are recognized as the best ever—crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. While some enjoy the trivia night atmosphere, it can be too loud for conversation, making the patio a preferred option despite it being a bit chilly. Recently, there have been concerns that the spice level in the spicy tenders has decreased, but the overall experience remains enjoyable, especially with generous portions and fantastic cocktails.
