Em Emiko 😛April 25, 2013Yes their wings are delicious but not as spicy as I would like my wings to be. If you love super spicy wings like me, try next door KyoChon. If you dont care for the heat, this place is amazing for u
Brigitte PerezJune 29, 2015Main floor is for a quick bite. Upstairs dine in. Combo #1 spicy with sweet potato fries. Boy was it spicy!!! Love the garlic and mustard sauce.
I love the fried chicken here. The watermelon soju drinks are pretty good, too. Staff is great. My only small complaint is the lighting is so dark, I can barely see my food while I eat and drink.
Martha RotterFebruary 12, 2013The fried mac & cheese sounds very strange but get it. When it arrives, you'll wonder why anyone would serve a cheese dipping sauce with fried mac & cheese, but just go with it - it's delicious
Sasha ChinnayaJanuary 13, 2019Fried chicken is soooooo good. The tacos are delicious. Just get the chicken with fries special though. It’s just what I needed on lunch breaks.
AbbyJanuary 14, 2013Get a half/half order of wings & spicy potstickers. But beware if you're going for a late-night snack - they're open til 4 but often close the kitchen much earlier. Hello, I'm not here for the beer.
Steve MarOctober 16, 2012Order the mixed chicken. Definitely go with spicy if you can handle it. Regular wings were a tad on the sweet side. Didn't really live up to the hype but still very delicious
Nathalia ThompsonDecember 18, 2018Great late night spot to eat and hang with friends. It’s also affordable.
Patryce CritzApril 18, 2017Bonchon Chicken never lets me down. Had potstickers and the chicken wings as I always do. Plus the ambience is always so chill.
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014These wings are so addictive, we sometimes order a second box once we've finished the first. Are we proud of this fact? Most definitely. Read more
LisaDecember 11, 2012While a bit more expensive than "normal" wings, they are worth it. I suggest getting the mixed box and unless you like it REALLY HOT, skip the hot/spicy sauce. Quick service and totally addictive.
Food RepublicJune 18, 2012Say what you will about the glut of Korean fried chicken in this 'hood, Bonchon's larger portions & thoughtful restraint w/chili flakes give all the crunch & flavor with none of the mouth-melting burn
The fried mac n cheese triangles are delicious (although not exactly authentic). Get the lunch special.
Mai TaMarch 9, 2016Crispy, tasty fried chicken. Don't get the spicy ones if you cannot handle spice.
- Nancy KangMarch 20, 2012My fave korean fried chicken spot! Crispy & tasty on the outside, juicy & tender on the inside. Warning: The spiciest vers is VERY hot.
JANICE💯October 30, 2014Korean style chicken that hits the spot. Good for large groups but expect some waiting. Music video and sports on multi screens.- Thomas MoAugust 17, 2014Best wings in NYC. Get the wings instead of drumsticks if you want more of the crispy skin.
Jane ChuMay 7, 2012I liked this place more than the Korean Fried Chicken joints in LA, but the quality here came down a bit after switching to owners/management. Still worth checking out. Gets very noisy.
Fried chicken wings (split between garlic and hot), potstickers, and a pitcher of Kirin beer. Yum!
Hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had. Try the rib eye wraps with the spicy mayo. Delicious!
Village VoiceSeptember 16, 2013Korean fried chicken at its finest, make sure to try the sweet soy-garlic sauce or spicy chili glaze!
Best fried chicken in NYC, I would argue best fried chicken in the world.
Get the chicken wings and a side of rice. That's all you need to make your night.
LogoTVOctober 9, 2012Crispy goodness on the outside, tender heaven on the inside. Order the wings already! - Jake Manabat, Hunting Season
Cuppy CakeMarch 23, 2013Best chicken wings if your looking for spicy this is the place to be:) salad with tofu .
Christine WilsonOctober 13, 2014Amazing chicken! The fact that it's not dry when deep fried is wonderful
Come here tons of times, and if u want to drink, drink the sujo, drink the Aloe, yoghurt soju.- Nancy KangMarch 20, 2012My fave korean fried chicken spot! Crispy & tasty on the outside, juicy & tender inside. [Drool] Warning: The spiciest vers issue VERY hot.
I get the 1Opc half & half deal of wings when I’m here.
the spicy garlic chicken is the best. it may look like a little bit of food, however it is very filling.
Libster CJune 25, 2012The ginger soy wings are awesome. Plus they have sweet potato fries! Open until 4am!
