Bonchon Ellicott City

This is a restaurant I really want to recommend to others! First, the portions are generous and the food is delicious! I had a meal there this time, and it was better than most snack bars. I even bought some chicken to take home and ate it for dinner and the next day, and it didn't have any fishy smell and was still delicious. If you want to eat authentic Korean chicken and Korean food, I highly recommend you go there! Also, the owner and staff were very friendly, which made for a pleasant dining experience! Thank you!

It was my first time going to a Korean fried chicken restaurant, and this place did not disappoint! The service was great! I got their bulgogi fries and yang yum chicken. The sauce was savory and spicy, the perfect mixture of both. And the bulgogi fries were hot and crispy. I would definitely recommend and this is now my new favorite fried chicken restaurant! The portion sizes was great, and I couldn’t finish the fries.

I’m honestly shocked at how far Bonchon has fallen. This used to be one of our favorite spots, so much so that we drove 40 minutes just to eat here. And for what? Cold, stale food and a completely disappointing experience. The chicken, which used to be crispy, juicy, and fresh, came out dry, chewy, and clearly not freshly made. The seasoned fries were even worse. They used to be amazing, garlicky, with real parmesan. Now they taste and smell like dirty feet with some weird yellow cheese dumped on top. Absolutely ridiculous for $11.99! The restaurant itself is dirty, and the server never once came to check on how our food was. The new kiosk system only adds to the frustration it’s confusing and makes the service feel even more disconnected. We are extremely disappointed. We wasted our time

Ive been to many Bonchon's and unfortunately this was the most lack luster one. The food was good, and staff nice enough, but the atmosphere was off, TV's weren't working, overall it felt like a ghost town. I feel the location plays a big part as it is hidden from the main road and even with GPS I didnt notice it until we were in front of it.

I ordered this time for pickup. Their food has gone down hill for a while and this is last time I eat there. The chicken strips were very dry and they changed the sauce to the point it had little flavor. Even considering it was pickup, they didnt have the crunchy shell/breading they used to have. It was also close to 90 bux for french fries, 18 count strips, and a 12 count mixed. I would suggest finding a local place that makes Korean fried chicken because this Bonchon is not even a shadow of what it used to be:
