Bonchon Philadelphia

Bonchon Philadelphia brings Korean fried chicken and Asian fusion cooking to 1020 Cherry St. in Philadelphia. The restaurant is built around chicken that is fried twice for a crisp texture, then finished with a choice of signature sauces. Wings, drums, boneless pieces and strips form the core of the menu, with accompaniments such as pickled radish or coleslaw.

The menu also extends beyond chicken. Korean comfort food and Asian-inspired casual dishes include sandwiches, tacos and steamed bao buns, while sides range from fries and onion rings to sweet potato fries, fried zucchini and Korean cucumber salad. Cheese balls and other shareable items provide additional options for a casual meal. The menu includes dishes with ingredients such as sesame, dairy and spicy sauces, so diners with allergies or dietary restrictions should check individual preparations before ordering.

The setting is casual and lively, with a family-friendly approach suited to relaxed meals, shared orders and groups looking for familiar comfort food with Korean flavors. The food works for a quick chicken order, a more varied spread of sides and small dishes, or a meal centered on different sauce choices. Catering is also part of the venue's offering, extending the menu beyond the dining room for gatherings and hosted meals.

Bonchon Philadelphia offers dine-in service along with online ordering. The Cherry Street location can be reached at (267) 639-6686 for questions about current service arrangements, menu ingredients, catering and seating. Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover are accepted payment methods.
