Reviews of Bonchon Fredericksburg (Restaurant)

Catherine Demonti

Seriously the best chicken ever! Fast service and delicious food every time

Scott Summers

Bonchon is always good for lunch.

J L

Love the ginger soy wings

Alexis Ankersen

Greta variety and excellent service. I had a wrap that was amazing and frankly distracted me from enjoying the company of my date. The place feels so clean. They should put some sort of sound absorbing material up though because it's pretty loud even when everyone is only talking at normal volume.

Ashby Collins

Omg, so good!!!!

Julie D

Love the food. Employees are nice .

Deborah Bond

Absolutely delicious food, friendly caring staff.

Zclomera

Favorite place to eat in the world

Sharon DeSouza

First time visit. Casual dining environment. Meal was tasty. We ordered shrimp shumai, potstickers, chicken wrap, and the bulgogi.

Food was really good! A bit pricey but other than will go back when I'm up for it again

dasya white

Delicious and fast service but expensive!!!

Dante Thomas

Tastes super good, a bit pricey and there is no kids menu. Chicken makes it all worth it though.

Katherine Groves

The wings are magical! So crispy & delicious! The price is very indicative of the food - good & you get a lot. I've had the wings, fried rice, pickled radish, and bulgogi bibimbop. Servers are nice, you can order to go, and the decor is minimalistic but nice. Recommend trying once, you'll be hooked!

Kay Hooven

They close their store way earlier than what the posted closing time is, so it's hard to gauge whether or not I'll be able to order food. Their food, when I get there early enough, is amongst the better options in town. :)

Breanna Gray

My boyfriend and I went to an Arlington location first which was amazing and said we didn't think the Fredericksburg location's food would be as good. Sadly, we were right. But even then, the food here tastes really good. I hope this one never goes away because it's only like 7 minutes from where I live which honestly puts me in trouble because I have developed a Bonchon addiction. They let us sit at the bar (which does not serve alcohol like other properties, for those wondering) and all the staff up front were so sweet and attentive.

Chris J

Really good chicken a little over cooked but still good. I'll be back to try again.

Wild

Food is amazing at this location. Service is great. The best item on the menu for me is their pork buns! It has great flavor and is very refreshing at the same time. I am looking forward to visiting again and trying their other options. (Took a bite before remembering to take a picture...oops)

Tarina Lemon

Fresh, portion to share, clean and cozy

Nelbach Family

Went into Fredericksburg Virginia location at 9:20 pm and was told by staff that the kitchen is closed. We were turned away so we are off to eat elsewhere. I’ll never spend my hard earned money there after being treated so poorly. THEY CLOSE AT 10 WTHECK! Absolutely ridiculous! Wish I could rate with negative stars.

I was craving good Korean spicy fried chicken but what I got was not even close. Chicken reminded me of huge nuggets and hot stone bibimbab was tasteless. And if you wanted kimchee, it was extra..not quite Korean.

Kim Gick

came for the wings, wasnt disappointed. dare i say, the best fried wings i have ever eaten, super crunchy super delicious. word to the wise, if you like your korean food moderately still korean, ask them not to put cheese in the dishes. food is a tad bit overpriced, but im sure rent in central park is also; dinged them a star, mom ordered some sort of salad and a good portion of it came out wilted, when server was queried, made excuses instead of immediately saying that he wouldnt have served that to his mother.

Nicole Conton

The wings were crispy AND delicious! The potstickers had just the right amount of sauce. Definitely will be my new spot when I'm craving wings and potstickers.

Chris Pulley

SO. CRISPY. Beautiful chicken.

Anthony Mineghino

Chicken was very greasy even for fried chicken, but the service was very friendly and there are other menu items that are great.

ecolivares2

First time here at Fredericksburg location. Very disappointed that japchae only comes in a full order and they wouldn’t accommodate my request for a small side. Every other Korean BBQ place I’ve tried japchae is a side dish. I wasn’t trying to substitute, just don’t want a full order that I wouldn’t be able to even eat half of I. They need to have sides or smaller portion sizes for people eating light or alone. Edited to add: the bulgogi was good and the half and half order of wings I brought home were delicious. I would definitely order the wings again for take out, and if they decide to offer the japchae as a side I would eat in again.

Denise Ryan

We came for the drum sticks which were amazing, worth the money. The place was a little full but Ian and Megan took great care of us. Ask for them and you will get great service with your delicious food.

Tim Cobb

The Asian Korean food was so so, too much money for the dishes won't work in Fredericksburg

victor Adriazola

Absolutely hands down my favorite chicken wings. Unlike any other I've ever had.

Kristi Fleischman

Delicious! A little pricey but worth it. :)

Harvey Neuman

Great crunchy spicy chicken!

Rob Lantz

I always eat too much.

Timothy Blain

Love bonchond

tkda918

The bibimbab is pretty good. Chicken is good. Service is hit or miss. Bit overpriced, but overall, I enjoyed the food and would go back.

Pete Fukagawa

Everything tastes GREAT, love it!!

Musicbypersonality

Best place in town .

Sirinya Kiser

Food and services is very good.

Adam Deskins

High quality food and service with a relatively low price.

juli mine

The good food and fabulous customer service.

Thuy Minh Hussey

The food is consistently delicious, the staff is nice and the facility is clean. I highly recommend the fried chicken, bulgogi and bibimbap.

Thomas Mandeville

Good chicken and kimchi.

Jeff Rabin

Get the strips. Everything else can be overlooked.

Daniel Long

Great food good price friendly staff awesome food pallet. The perfect amount of spice

kevin smith

It is double fried chicken. It speaks for itself, it's good. Sit down dining is a little cramped, if there is a little crowd. Still has good service and staff.

Gerald Hall

Great food

Vee

I so love these soy garlic wings and fried rice, even though here lately these wings are not playing nice with my gut. (Lol) The fried rice is delish. I can do without the sweet tea though.., the water they use to make the tea has a strong tap water taste to it, which gives it a different taste. I've had other people mention this as well.

Randall Rhodes

Food was great!!!!!!!!

Diana Garnett

Soy garlic wings have me hooked!

Nancy Elmore

Big improvement from last visit. Chicken wasn't overcooked, was tender and moist. Radish was chilled and delicious. Will go back more often now.

Nate Taylor

Korean Fried Chicken - extra crispy and spicy. A variety of specialty side dishes as well. (If you like cold chicken, buy a little extra chicken and have cold spicy leftovers for lunch the next day.)

LaStar cooper

Great chicken but, their wait time is crazy. They tell us 15 min and it will end up being 40 ...to 45 min.

Rebecca Atkins

Friendly people and awesome food.

Mike Webster

I received my order wrong twice. When I went back in the manager who was the one that took my order took exceptional care of me and made sure that my food was correct and even offered to give me credit in their book. Their food has always been awesome and so is their service and attention to customers. Even though they made a mistake they make sure that they took care of me because they want me to come back again. I believe that's how they feel about all of their customers.

LaTisha Rowe-Thomas

Yummy!! With great service!!

Todd and Alishia Knop

The takoyaki were terrible, kimchi was under flavored, wings were super, our server was very friendly

Madeley Mena

Different but good. I tried the (soy garlic) wings for the first time. It was good. Service was good. Place was very clean.

Erin Proctor

I ate here once and tried the toekskjwenf.. I don't know how to spell it, but it was the soup like dish with fish cakes and rice cakes and kimori(??) on top. It was VERY VERY spicy. So spicy I could not eat past 5 bites. So I asked if I could exchange for another dish and I got the wings. OH. My Goodness. They were the best wings I have ever had. No exaggeration. I like crispy wings. I hate soggy wings. And it's hard to get all the flavor on the wings without compromising the crispiness. Their wings were so light and crispy and the flavor was on point. I had never tasted a wing like it. So far that's the only thing I've tried on the menu, but I'd love to try the other unique items on the menu one day.

Marquez

EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING IM GOING TOMRROW AND WOULD RATE THIS A 100000+

Mustafak18

Great selections and reasonable price for first time trier

Donnie Wells

Tasty, hefty portions. Takoyaki and shumai were delicious. Bulgogi was huge and so good. Even their fries are excellent.

Diane Madden

This place is so good everything is outstanding! Try the chicken and tacos! Highly recommend!

Sage Oni

My first bon chon after months of not only hearing how good it is but ordering for friends without tasting it. I had the mix of sweet and mild spicy chicken. Great concept, fresh chicken, nicely done crusting. Flavor doesn't go deep into the thighs, the wings were okay. An area of improvement definitely but overall not unimpressed the coleslaw was probably the best I've had in a while too. Overall I'll say a 3.7 outta 5

Conrad Althoff

Great fried chicken. Also Bibimbap rice bowls with the beef (boglugi) are awesome.

Brianna Bloodsaw

Absolutely delicious!!

Quincy Chuang

Unlike other Bonchon locations, there is no soju or alcohol at all at this location.

Nate Ferguson

One of the best fried chicken wing places in the area. So excited when they opened one down here. Very unique tasting with an Asian flair but so delicious. If you do not like spicy.... go for Garlic Soy. They are BOMB.

Hwajin Lee

Not Korean fried chicken. More better at Centerville store. Not fresh.

John Rigsby

Best wings in Fredericksburg!

Sherri Dorsey

excellent tacos

Trent Stinson

Wow! Sweet surprise in Fredericksburg! Fresh salads and amazing signature chicken! I strongly recommend the soy ginger wings and the sesame ginger salad! Great atmosphere and clean environment!

Shawn McCartney

Always good food. Fast friendly service.

carmen delcid

Muy muy bueno

Travis McClintock

This was my first experience at Bonchon and let me just say it was phenomenal. Far exceeded my expectations, I was told how good it was by friends and family but until I tried it for myself I couldn't really believe what they were telling me. The wings are unlike any I've ever had before, extra crunchy and juicy. Perfectly fried and their two flavors are out of this world! My wife got the potstickers and they were equally amazing. I will be back time and time again. I would give more than 5 stars if possible.

Bailey Matthews

Amazing. Best wings, attentive, knowledgeable server, very clean table, silverware, plates. Food came out fast, hot and correct. Server returned periodically for refills etc. Will definitely come back very soon. Much on the menu to try.

Mark Proestel

Fried chicken wrap was yummy.

Richard Rantz II

Fantastic Chicken Wings

Eric Hennessey

Good food at good prices. Just wish they served beer and wine.

Trina Haley

Delicious wings!

Anna Marie Torre Wright

First time trying this location and we were not let down. Same yummy food and good service that we have enjoyed at other locations. First time trying the pot stickers and they were a winner. Asking for light soy-garlic sauce was not an issue and the wings and pot stickers had the perfect amount. Drinks refilled without asking. This particular location is a little tricky to find and the dining area is a bit tight as other reviewers have noted.

Tammy Eckler

This place is one of my new Favs :) !!!!!! The food was awesome!!!!! We had wings, rice, and tacos and oh my, all was just wonderful. Restaurant was clean, staff was very pleasant and most of all the food was priced right.

Shenora Shillshams

I ate their soy garlic chicken wings a few weeks ago and although they had a nice flavor I had a bad case of diarrhea after eating these wings. Yikes! Ppl with sensitive tummies please do not indulge in these twice fried, diarrhea inducing delights. Yours, Shenora Shillshams

Macho Mortensen

Best wings in town

Artie Bethea

I love to go there...because I love the Korean beef dishes. Korean chicken is good an idea that has caused my friends to keep coming back. I love to set at the bar, because I get quick service and personal attention from the employees, even calling my name when I walk in the door.

Jdz Random thoughts

Love the food!

Jacquita Little

Food was amazing!!! Little pricey but def GOOD!!

Candie Murphy

I highly recommend the chicken katsu if you love sweet spicy and fried you will love this dish .

Jennifer Hunter

Simply AMAZING!!!!!

Donnell Lyons

Stumbled in the restaurant Bonchon. It was great the chicken, rice and kimchi. Overall a hidden secret!!!

Leonore Sheppard

Excellent food and great service! Loved the Korean tacos!

Dan Gentry

Best chicken place in the area.

Faith B. L.

Over priced appetizer. Decent food. I got the shrimp shamui and some chicken with glass noodles. About $22ish. App was okay, didnt like it much. Entree was better than the appetizer.

J Best

I'm angry, because their Bimbimbap tastes better than what I cook at home.

James Heckerman

Wings are great here. Nice change from BDubs even though there's only two types of wings.

Mig Ace

You gotta try at least once, I guarantee you will be back for more regardless of the price.

Katie Martin

Food is excellent! I will say the "vibe" of the restaurant isn't my favorite. It's not bad, just nothing special, but that chicken... With that chicken you can so no wrong! Spicy pot stickers and a soy garlic combo is where it's at!

Matthew Davis

Let me start by saying my wife and I love Bonchon Chicken, just not the Fredericksburg Bonchon Chicken. We usually go to the one in Fairfax which has great service and the chicken is cooked perfectly every time. At first we were very excited that they were going to open a store in the Burg only to find out that they do not carry the same menu and the cooks leave alot to be desired when it comes to this company's chicken at this location. Our first and last visit to the f'burg store was a month ago when we called in an order for pickup. They do not carry the same menu as the Fairfax store and more importantly the chicken incredibly overcooked borderline burnt. Guess we'll just continue driving to Fairfax for our favorite chicken. Really is a shame that the people in Fredericksburg are not being served the quality of food that my wife and I have come to love from this establishment.

Anissa Wells

This place is terrible. The food wasn't bland but even that might've been better than the 1-toned sad excuse for bulgogi they serve. And on top of that it made me sick! Do yourself a favor and go to an actual family owned Korean restaurant instead of this garbage place. Also, what chain restaurant doesn't have an allergy menu in 2018?

ashley Kaufman

The garlic wings are to die for. A crunch with every bite.

Jamie Graupman

Great food. Made fresh while you wait.

Travis Jackson

There food is really good and always fresh. However, they definitely close earlier than posted! This evening, I arrived at 9:40pm and decided to call my order in while I waited in my vehicle with the kids. However, instead of answering the phone call, I watched the employee look at the phone and put it back down! After this, they will never have to worry about me being a frequent weekly customer.

Cars n Stuff

Came by due to the reviews of the chicken. I would say they have a very unique breading that is flavorful and crunchy. I'd recommend getting a half/half order because the spicy wings have some bite to them, but it's not too bad. Korean tacos were excellent and the potstickers were amazing. We did have to ask for water refills but overall the service was fine.

Paul Frields

Delicious food and curiously excellent service make this a great place for both lunch and casual dinner. I'm in love with the bibimbap. My kids can even both agree on Bonchon, which is great. It's not the cheapest place you can eat, but you'll know where the money goes when you taste the food. Unabashed fan here.

Kelly Esperanza

Great food. Best wings in the world. Move over buffalo wings

Bingo

good service

M Lawrence

Purchased popcorn chicken on the fly while out with a friend. Very friendly staff, what I had was on point!!

Frannie Monasterio

The signature chicken carries them but I go to Bonchon for okonomiyaki. Unfortunately it wasn't there. Everything else about the restaurant is good - the staff were friendly and attentive. The bathrooms were clean. The prices are what you'd expect. I'd sooner go to the Bonchon in Fairfax or Richmond, however.

Laura McCartney

Food is cooked to order and tastes great.

Ny Giants

Great food and service

Wendy Remick

Didn't like the hot. Too spicy for me. Love their pot stickers.

Michael Lackland

Korean Fried chicken, crispy, saucy, sweet, spicy, great fried rice and other side dishes. Winner, winner...

Wade Jensen

Spicy means SPICY. Really. Like Habanero pepper hot. Very tasty though.

Carlos Oyola Arroyo

Delicious meals, clean place, and a family oriented restaurant.

Justin LaRose

Delicious, unique, and affordable specials. Fans of spicy will be happy here.

Brad Orme

Love Bonchon - need my fix about once a month. Nice location and friendly staff

MichaelJ W

Seriously disappointed in this location. Bon Chon advertised a 20% off discount for veterans on Veterans Day. Was informed after eating that THEIR location was not participating in the promotion. We were regulars but will not be returning. The Woodbridge store always honors the promotions and has a larger dining area.

Margaret Welsh

Really good pan Asian cuisine. Small menu, but tasty.

melissa j

Delicious food

Kim Suszczewicz

Hot means hot!

Geoff Douthitt

Great chicken, always a good time

Kevin Haynes

It delicious

mike killian

Bon Chon strips are what other chicken strips want to be when they grow up.

Allen Anderson

Great Food Fondue at its best

Caleb Taylor

Delicious

Colin Vaughn

Could not complain about anything from walking though the door till exiting would go again

Shayley Hohn

I live in Richmond and this was my first time going to this one. It was good, a little disappointed that they don’t serve any alcohol and they don’t let you do any substitutions for the sides.

Nandana Silva

Great food and friendly staff.

Steven Wohlman

Awesome chicken

Bonster Hamibee

Good service. Ordered lunch bibimbap and pork buns. Buns were good but a bit overpriced for what you get. $10.95 for four buns appetizer. Bibimbap was a nice surprise- it comes stone bowl, which is awesome. You don't get any side kimchis like regular Korean places. Pid $3 for a tiny bowl of kimchi for a side. Overall not a bad place to get quick common Korean dishes. Did not get to try the chicken. Will try next time.

Vanessa Richardson

Some awesome chicken!

Raphael Spurlock

Culinary catastrophe. Those pork belly buns were the worst. Of course the pork belly was almost all fat. The coleslaw was warm. Chicken was..meh

DREW LIPSCOMB

Wings are crazy good! Can't comment on anything else. Only had chicken and o-rings. Orings good too, though, not standard restaurant go to, so that's good

andrew lester

Food is always good and moderately priced

Tony

Some of the best and definitely the biggest chicken wings I have every eaten. You can order a garlic, mild or hot flavor. It also has great Korean style food with an American twist

Martacelis Fuentes

Delicious food, worth to try!!

Mandi J

Our meals have always been good. The service can be slow at times. Best item I have had was the spicy chicken sliders.

Shawn McNabb

Always yummy. Good service.

Jeffrey Miller

Super awesome wings!

monica vallejo grisales

(Translated by Google) Delicious!!! (Original) Delicioso!!!

Selena Cox

Chicken wings were amazing, cooked thoroughly and very crispy!

Emily Cooper

Tasty food with lots of spices. Don't have good options for kids but they were kind enough to accommodate a special request for small guest.

M Clark

This restaurant is great! Finally another option rather then Chili's, Friday's, Ruby Tuesday and O Charles for a decent sit down resturant. The food is great, not your typical Korean type style resturant. This is more geared towards america's which is fine. Every dish I've head there has been good. The (and I am screwing this up) Bim-Bup-Bop? Is fantastic. Huge amount of food that you could split with another person. The chicken is also a good dish. Crispy, but not dry at all. Wonderful staff that is friendly and attentive, but not hovering over your table the whole time. Never once have a had a bad meal there and would recommend to anyone that wants something different then the standard line up of resturants I mentioned above. Go there eat foods, get fat, take some home and do it all over again. And if you don't like this restaurant.....we'll that's probably because you hate America

Roger Erickson

Best, biggest wings

Chuni Swint

Food is good. Prices are a bit high

Mo Arr

Try the soy garlic chicken wings. You will NOT regret it. If you like spicy food, the spicy ones have a little heat to them, but not much.

Miriam Castillo Cerda

Overpriced and slow wait staff.

Pamela Martin

Love the food!

Rashida Thom

Delicious crispy Korean fried chicken... highly recommend!!
