Great Korean fried chicken! We ordered several items and they were all well prepared and tasty. Service was very fast and the staff was very friendly.

Boneless wings are Terrible, my mistake was trying the boneless wings at Ten Asian foodhall in Cherry Hill first. Nooo comparison. Sorry I would never recommend their boneless wings.

I like coming here with family. The food is great. I'm not mentioning my menu favorites because I dont want them running out of my faves.

Everything was very good! My favorites were the fries and corn. Classic crunch was a bit too salty but overall I would recommend and eat here again!

I came back to Bonchon hoping for another good experience after a decent first visit, but this time was a total disappointment.
I ordered about $60 worth of food for takeout for my family and asked for some extra Korean BBQ sauce when I picked it up. The woman at the front was pretty rude and told me it would be $1 for the extra sauce. I didn’t mind paying, even though I had just tipped $9, because I wanted to make sure the chicken had enough flavor.
What I got was a leaky plastic container with barely any sauce — and honestly, it didn’t even taste good. The chicken itself was super dry and not enjoyable at all. Definitely didn’t live up to the high over inflated price.
I'd highly recommend another one of the many other local restaurants that serve way better tasting chicken in the area over Bonchon.
2 out of 5 stars in being very generous for this place.

Bonchon’s chicken isn’t just good—it’s life-altering. My personal fave is the drumstick.... so spicy... so crunchy, which I’m convinced might actually be the best chicken on planet Earth (don't fight me on this, just believe). 🐔🔥 Every bite is crispy, saucy perfection. I’ve also fallen in love with the Bulgogi Stir Fry Udon, and today I’m venturing into Bacon Kimchi Stir Fry Udon territory. Can’t wait! I’ll try to update with photos… assuming I don’t black out from joy and inhale it all before my camera comes out. LOL. Bonchon = happiness served on a plate. They should've been featured on KPop Demon Hunters!
Oh! And Nita is just the very best! Ask for her. Always great help and very peaceful. Thanks Nita!

this is a fast food restaurant located in a modern shopping plaza. Despite being mostly takeout, we had excellent service while dining in. The staff brought our food out to our table very quickly, and it was pretty good.
let’s start with the edamame. I was happy to see it was not buried in a mountain of salt as is often in the case. It came in a takeout container, which was great because it was such a huge serving. We ended up taking over half of it home.
All the other servings were generous as well. I found the crispy fried chicken to be a little too salty for my taste. But they have a variety of ways of preparing it that might suit your taste.
we also tried the Bulgogi beef, which was not as good as a full on Korean restaurant or as you would make it home, but it was pretty good for a fast food establishment.
Parking is sample and there is handicap accessibility. The decor was clean and modern but kind of sterile in that fast food kind of way
There is not much in the way of vegetarian options. Definitely save room for dessert. The Korean donuts are fun.

The food was very fresh and good. It was different which is what I was looking for. I definitely want to go back and try different items. The staff is extremely friendly with a smile and not the fake niceness we all know. Give them a try if you are looking for a different kind of vittles.

The food here is consistently good. While the menu may not be large, they cover many of the standards. I have always received my order with a smile, and it has always been correct. I also feel the cost is reasonable, and the taste is great (IMO). We usually order the Bibimbap, fried chicken, or Jap Chae. If I could wish for one thing, it would be for them to offer the avocado ball appetizer that some other locations have.

It was okay, great selection. Taste is just fine. Not as great as I was expecting. I have tried other Bonchon's but this was just mediocre.

We ordered the sample plate with Korean BBQ wings and legs, steak fries, Street corn, coleslaw, and potstickers. It was all very delicious. I think Korean barbecue chicken is our current favorite thing.... and this was one of the best we've had so far.. we will definitely order food from here again.

Great chicken, but other food is just alright. Prices are not there, though. I could get 10 wings, drink and fries from Wingstop for $13.99, but Bonchon only gives 10 wings for $14.50. Bonchom does have better wings, but not enough to warrant that price. Especially in this age of inflation and tariffs. Also steamed rice is $3.50; please just go to any Asian restaurant and ask for steamed rice and they will practically give it away.
