I have been going here ever since it opened.  It is a little pricey but so worth it.   When you walk in the place is pretty big and clean.  You are greeted right away upon walking in.   This time around, we ordered online for pick up and ordered a few items we haven't tried.We ordered:1.  Bulgogi fries - I was surprised how good it was.   I wasn't expecting much since they are known for their chicken.2. Potstickers - Crunchy and soft in the middle. I love how they drizzle the sauce on top.3.   Popcorn shrimp - of course, the shrimp was not the biggest, but it was so addictive. Something about the batter being crunchy and chewy, once you eat one, you can't stop.4.   House fried rice (bulgogi) - very flavorful, but the rice was a little too sticky to my liking and a little too sweet.5.  Korean Fried Chicken with soy glaze - Alwaus got you smacking. It's so crunchy and not overly saucey. This goes great with the pickled radish.6.   Korean donuts - I don't know why, but I had high expectations.  I was disappointed.  It was just a regular sugar doughnut. I was expecting it to be chewier, like with rice flour.  If you're thinking about it,  don't bother. It's not worth the price.Overall,  you can never go wrong with going here.

Very nice and chill bonchon. The service was great and most of the food was amazing.The chicken combo and sliders were top tier but the fries… I mean bonchon fries are some of my favorite but this time it was bad. And by bad I mean horrible. They were like overdone but cold steak fries. Not the flaky crispy outside and soft inside, hot fries I know and love. They’re like fries you’d expect to get at Dennys. I’m not sure what happened but everything else was good. Popcorn shrimp wasn’t great but decent. I didn’t expect a lot to begin with.While disappointing, the server was cool and really friendly.I’d definitely go to another bonchon if you like the fries, I assume most people would.

Looking for a quick bite. Brochon is it. We ordered the Korea Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, Fried Zucchini & Popcorn shrimp. The food was even better for next day lunch. Cozy place with a bar tvs to watch the game. Plenty of free parking and restaurant is wheelchair accessible. Oh! Also great customer service. I will be returning for more good food. Brochon does not accept cash. Have a credit card ready.Parking: Large parking lot with plenty of handicap parking spaces.Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is Handicapped accessible.

Years after their opening, I finally tried this place out. The restaurant is on the smaller side but this place seems to do most of their business with takeout and delivery orders. My boyfriend and I were seated right away and we liked that there were TVs all around. Service was great. Our server provided great recommendations and was attentive.Parking: Parking is in a lot for the whole shopping center. That said, it can be busy or not busy depending on the day and time.

So so yummy! First time there and the server was so helpful in recommending what to try. Friendly environment & very busy, but we were seated fairly quickly. Can't wait to go back again.

No hate to the service, the staff was very friendly and attentive. 10/10 but they need more work on their food. The spicy chicken strips were so dry, I struggled swallowing and chocked. Their spicy sauce is the type of flavoring that I can make at home with gochujang but just lacks that 2% factor. Got the drumsticks and wings with soy garlic sauce and limited edition yang-yum sauce as well -- yang yum sauce was decent, but the soy garlic sauce was just salty. Their chicken is dry. I've had juicier chicken wings for $5 at a hole in the wall restaurant. It is hard to suck at Korean fried chicken but they have accomplished this.

Wings are great, but a bit pricey for the amount you get. Kimchee fried rice is delicious. Overall, good food, but for more of a takeout/casual restaurant, the prices are a bit high. Friendly staff!

Great food , fast service where else can you get scrumptious korean chicken like this. They also come from four different flavors you just can't wrong. Did I mention they also offer alcoholic beverages too.Vegetarian options: Not a good place for vegetarians.Wheelchair accessibility: A lot of room to accommodate.

Easy ordering on kiosk machine, online or at counter. Parking lot. Service was quick and friendly. To go was pack neatly. Chicken wings was crunchy and flavorful with perfect combo soy and garlic.

Scott Love

Very average. Tenders were dry as a bone. And chewy ?. Korean BBQ flavor was fine. Soy garlic marginally better. Take out orders automatically add tip which is
