B N Chicken — Restaurant in Santa Clara

This place deserve 3.5 stars.

For as long as I can remembered, I've wanted to try ginseng chicken. Finally I found a restaurant that specializes in it! (thanks yelp!) I satisfied my craving and it was delicious!

We came on a Tuesday night at 8pm and the place was dead. The waitress was very attentive and seated us immediately. She spoke broken English so she wasn't able to answer my questions regarding the menu. Nonetheless, we figured out what we wanted and ordered Dak kalguku and Hukmanul.

While waiting for our food to arrive, our waitress brought us 2 jars of kimchee. One was regular cabbage the other was radish. Their kimchee was very flavorful. The only downside is that we were not provided with any other banchan items.

Hukmanul: The chicken was very tender and the broth was flavorful. When we asked for more sliced garlic, our waitress gladly brought us more.

Dak Kalguku: the noodles were hand-made and had a great texture. The broth was a bit on the peppery side. The aftertaste of the pepper def gave my mouth a kick!

I can't wait to come back and try their "hangover spicy...

Bubbling Samgyetang... piping hot Fried Chicken... refreshing Naengmyun (cold noodles)... this place has an effortlessly delicious menu! My coworkers and I came here for a lunch outing and they were able to seat 8 of us at a table (we called ahead of time over the phone). They only give kimchi and kkakdugi with your meal. I like that they keep it simple.

I ordered the Fried Chicken with Salad, which came with 6 pieces: three drumsticks and three flats. Each piece was juicy and you could tell it was freshly fried. It was steaming with every bite. Honestly, it was too salty for my preferences, but it was decent overall. The "salad" that it comes with is thinly sliced cabbage and carrot with dressing.

The Naengmyun is pretty delicious here! Keep in mind: they only have this on the menu during the summer! They don't add much broth, but there's a decent amount of slushy ice. I love that they layer the beef in egg! Pretty unique and adds nice texture. Interesting that they add...

I would give minus one star if I can. THEY DO NOT RESPECT THEIR CUSTOMERS! If you want to be treated as a customer should be treated, then DON'T GO! The Samgyetang is a good choice in cold weather, but that's when it is not sold out. I ordered pick up and after a long drive to the restaurant, instead of getting the soup that could warm me up, I was told the Samgyetang is sold out. They could have cancelled the order online, BUT THEY DIDN'T! They could have called me to let me know they run out of Samgyetang, BUT THEY DIDN'T! They could have apologized to me driving all the way there, BUT THEY DIDN'T! All they did was just told me the Samgyetang is sold out and after I ask why I wasn't informed they simply said "I apologize, okay? I'm busy!" then head back straight to the kitchen. THIS IS THE WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER...
