Bonchon Pasadena

The quality was disappointing! The lunch prices seemed a bit high for what I received. The chicken I ordered tasted like it had been microwaved. The atmosphere at this location felt very run-down, with chairs stacked up, making it seem like they didn't want customers to sit and eat. At this point, I probably won't return. I would recommend heading to the Bonchon at Round Mill instead; it's much better!

The restaurant has opened, but it does not serve water and uses takeout boxes for the food. This raises some questions about management. The fried zucchini is delicious, but the outer coating tends to separate and seems to be improperly prepared.

The soy garlic sauce is delightful. It is a bit pricey, but I absolutely love the chicken here. We're definitely looking forward to our next visit!

Disappointed in the experience. I have a family dinner XL 1. The meal comes with rice and three other sides. You can choose from 4 different. They only had two available. So I doubled. Placed the order and was told 25 min. Can be back after 35 min and my food wasn't ready. Then I was told that I couldn't have the double onion rings because they had low supplies. I had to take the picky radishes. Not something my kids would eat. I waited 15 minutes before my food was ready. While most of the foods were tasty, the radishes were raw. I've eaten picky little radishes before and they never smelled like a bathroom. That was garbage. So almost and hour wait $60 and rotten secondary dishes I wasn't happy. The chicken was good.

I got pork bun appetizer, mai tai and small fried chicken and the total, during happy hour, was $28. Thats pretty pricey in my opinion, and perhaps I was overcharged?? In any case, I thought the food and the ambiance was generally pretty good, but the spicy Korean chicken is not even slightly spicy and it was served pretty cool. In addition, there was very minimal sauce. For the price, I was pretty let down.
