Bonchon was recommended from a friend to try. The soy garlic in particular. I got the soy garlic wings and coleslaw.
Overall the food was ok. So much breading and not enough meat. Flavor was good and crunch was good. Coleslaw was fire 🔥 very creamy!
Coworkers went with drumsticks and fries with their food. Looked good and they enjoyed the hot spice.
Service was good at this location and it had a nice aesthetic inside with lots of natural light.
Doubt I would try Bonchon again unless a friend really wants to go. Overall the food isn’t “my jam”

What happened to this place??! We used to go here a lot a few years ago but this visit will definitely be our last. The food we got was OK but the restaurant itself was filthy-the floor, the glass, the tables etc. If my husband hadn’t been so hungry I think we would have gone elsewhere. We did take out in the end and luckily did not get sick but I wonder about the state of the kitchen if the front of house looks so disgusting.

In 2025, I went to columbia location with four friends. The music was loud and the food was disappointing especially the chichen ~ 😥😩The breading of the wings is not consistent, and the soy garlic sauce tastes either too sweet or very salty. It looks like they haven't changed the cooking oil, the base of the fried chicken was too dark even for soy sauce chicken. I end up bring it home and my parents tried it and it went into trash can and they concerned for our health. They need to work on marinated the base of the chicken and need to change the cooking oil more often.

Service - 20 minutes for a single order of bulgogi bibimbap.
Atmosphere - Cozy.
Food - Too expensive for the portion of the food. Around $20 is a one and done for a small serving. Taste wise not bad. Their gochujang lacks flavour.

Chicken strips and bao buns were just horrible. I don’t want to be that person on google reviews like ranting and roasting them but let’s just say I didn’t wanna cook dinner so I got take out, ended up cooking anyway. I’m not really the person to throw food I BOUGHT away, I’m actually pretty cheap so yeah it was that bad. Two bites of bao and tossed it and like 3/4 of the chicken strips and threw it all away.
Wouldn’t not recommend, especially take out cuz the food might be bad but you can’t do anything about it as opposed to sitting down for service there.
Anyway If you’ve read this far you’re prob still interested so here’s the rest of the tea: the bao had spicy Mayo on it which regrettably when ordering online I should have asked for none of it / on the side but alas I didn’t expect it to be as truly nauseating as it was. The chicken strips were tragically disappointing. Like the ice cream parlor at the beach on your 8th birthday has a long line and when you get to the front they’re out of your favourite flavor type disappointing. Mad I spent $40 and don’t really see a path to redeeming that, hence my long winded salty review. Only plus side was their spicy flavoring was good and the wait staff there are very … nice japanese girls
