Bonchon Uptown

Really good food and amazing service! We're visiting Minneapolis from Canada and ended up coming to Bonchon after our original dinner plans didn't work out. Honestly, I'm glad we did! The food was so good, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed, kept our waters topped up, and were just genuinely friendly throughout the entire meal. My boyfriend loves spicy food, so he ordered one of the really spicy dishes. I thought it was really nice that one of the employees came over to check on him and make sure it wasn't too spicy. It was just a small thing, but it really showed how attentive the staff were. Overall, we had a great experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and everyone made us feel really welcome. I would definitely come back! Also, my boyfriend accidentally left his hat there, so I hope someone enjoys their new Canadian hat. Lol

I'm just gonna say it. The chicken here slaps! So good. Try the Gold dust flavor. They have traditional, boneless, and strips for chicken. Wide selection of appetizers and all have been good at this location. They do tend to be pretty busy with phone call orders, online orders and walk-ins contributing to their business so I would def recommend ordering online or through the app a good bit ahead of time but the wait is worth it if you don't. I don't usually eat in but the decor is nice and cozy from what I've seen. Decent amount of seating but most don't dine in. It feels more like a take out spot. Make sure to ask for sauce in your order if you want some. Overall, it's about the quality of the food and that's there. They're a big worldwide chain for a reason. Tldr review: YUM!

I don't often write reviews but I thought this was too tasty not to rate! I got the chicken katsu, and it was delicious, and very prettily plated! The restaurant has a pretty nice atmosphere too. And the service was good!

I ordered the Katsu Chicken and the Bolgogi Fries. Both items were very good, the chicken was crispy. About $35 for that plus a Jarritos and a fountain Pepsi. The windows do have graffiti on them on the outside, but the inside of the restaraunt was clean. My main complaints are that they only have 3 things on the fountain machine, no ice, and you cant substitute sides. The Katsu usually comes with coleslaw and I asked if I could just get more rice. I was told they can't swap, but they can omit the coleslaw. Okay, whatever, not the end of the world. They also are very busy online orders wise and not staffed enough to handle it. The single hostess/waitress was having a hard time dealing with all the doordash/ubereats drivers and checking on us and the other two patrons sitting in at the same time.

ummmm … i only live 4 minutes away and i arrived like 5 mins after the estimated time so maybe a total of 9 mins of my food sitting and well … bonchon uptown needs to work on their packaging. Cold pickled radish was warm. I would have preferred my fries in a box instead of a paper bag 😒 the spicy Korean wings was good tho
