★★★☆☆ 3.0 Alicia C. · Nov 2025

The wings are huge, crispy, flavorful 10/10 The pickled radish however is almost always questionable at this location… it’s sometimes grey and does not taste fresh, sometimes tastes spoiled. The texture of the radish is sometimes squishy/mushy too. 50$ for 32 wings, I would hope the sides are at least fresher. Wings, 10/10 Fries, 10/10 Radish, 2/10 the Rockville location is a lot fresher but smaller wings

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Devon Johnson · Jan 2026

I normally love Bonchon, but this last experience was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and tough. A bit undersauced as well. The strips used to be like tenders and now they are closer to cuts of chicken breasts that have been flattened, which probably lead to the texture issues. With all the other midcounty locations closed, this is the closest location for me and I won't be in a hurry to return. Maybe Rockville is better.

The bulgogi fries are $13 and pictured on the menu as a plate of fries covered in toppings. I received a basket of fries with a pinch of bulgogi on top. Not even layered throughout. $4 side if kimchi was dry, dry, dry, with no flavor. $15 Boneless Korean fried soy garlic chicken was overcooked Tyson-style wings that were dry and cooked to death. $16 Bulgogi fried rice was okay. It was so hot in there. It was very uncomfortable. It was clean, and our server was personable. I would not come back nor recommend this place.

★★★★★ 5.0 Charles-Stephen Laubhouet · May 2021

I went with my family of 4 on a friday night. The place is spacious, clean and cozy. They have high chairs for little ones. Our food took about 8 minutes to be served, the flavor was there! We really enjoyed it. The coleslaw was excellent and the boneless wings are extremely were well seasoned. The spice was definitely there, the spicy wing took my bu surprise it was very good and spicy. Our server was nice and friendly.

★★★★★ 5.0 Paul · Jul 2022

Delicious fried chicken, with fun sides, starters, and other entree options. Also a big selection of drinks. The spicy chicken is SPICY! Soy garlic is tasty but not spicy. I recommend the coleslaw as the main side -- radishes were ok, tasted kind of like sweet pickles but would mostly just be for texture. Bulgogi tacos were a fun starter. Interesting mix of flavors and textures, and they look cool too. We came for a later dinner on Friday (8:30ish), and we were surprised how slow it was. Hopefully a fluke, would love to see this place get popular! Service was prompt and friendly.
