What Is Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup?

The Only Soup on the Bonchon Menu

Udon (うどん) are thick Japanese wheat noodles — soft, chewy, and substantial in a way that thinner noodles are not. At Bonchon, the Udon Noodle Soup brings these noodles into a Korean-style preparation: served in a savory broth built on mushrooms, finished with scallions and sesame oil, and available with your choice of Bulgogi beef, a fried egg, or plain.

This is the only soup-format dish on the Bonchon menu — everything else is fried, stir-fried, wok-prepared, or simmered in a sauce. The Udon Noodle Soup is fundamentally different in character: warming, broth-forward, and comforting in a way that fried chicken and rice dishes are not. It is the go-to choice when the weather is cold, when someone in your party wants something lighter and more soothing, or when you want a contrast to the fried items on the table.

The broth is savory and clean — not aggressively seasoned, not spicy. It is one of the mildest and most accessible items on the Bonchon menu, with zero heat across all protein options. The noodles are served thick and fully cooked in the broth, absorbing the mushroom and soy-based flavor deeply.

Quick Answer: Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup starts at approximately $15.99 (plain) and contains no spice. It is available with Bulgogi, Fried Egg, or plain. This is the only soup dish on the Bonchon menu and the best choice for anyone wanting something warm and broth-based.
Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup Price 2026

All Protein Options — Prices & Details

Option Price Heat Best For
Plain (noodles + broth + mushrooms) ~$15.99 None Lightest option, simple flavors
+ Fried Egg ~$16.99 None Adds richness, still light
+ Bulgogi (marinated beef) ~$18.99 None Most filling, Korean beef flavor

* Prices may vary by location. Delivery prices on DoorDash and Uber Eats may be higher. All options contain no spice.

Best Value Pick: The Bulgogi Udon (~$18.99) adds the most flavor and substance to the soup — the Korean marinated beef releases its sweet-savory marinade into the broth as it cooks, creating a richer, more complex soup flavor than the plain or egg versions. Worth the extra $3 over plain.

Nutrition Facts & Sodium Warning

Exact calorie data for each Udon Noodle Soup variant is not published separately in the Bonchon nutrition guide. Below are known figures and estimates based on comparable dishes and available data:

Option Est. Calories Est. Protein Sodium
Plain~450–550 kcal~12–18g~4,000mg ⚠
+ Fried Egg~520–620 kcal~18–24g~4,100mg ⚠
+ Bulgogi~700–850 kcal~35–45g~4,200mg ⚠

* Calorie estimates only. Verify exact figures with your specific Bonchon location. Sodium figures reflect the high-sodium nature of udon broth.

⚠ Sodium Warning: Udon Noodle Soup has an extremely high sodium content — estimated at 4,000mg+ per serving. This is because traditional udon broth is heavily salted and soy-seasoned. If you are monitoring sodium intake, Udon Noodle Soup is the least appropriate choice on the Bonchon menu. The Chicken Katsu (672mg) and plain Bibimbap (315mg) are far better options for sodium-conscious diners.
The Three Versions Compared

Plain vs Fried Egg vs Bulgogi

The three versions of Udon Noodle Soup are meaningfully different — each topping changes the character of the bowl:

Plain
~$15.99 · Lightest

The base broth with udon noodles, mushrooms, and scallions only. The flavor comes entirely from the broth — clean, savory, mushroom-forward. The simplest and most delicate version.

  • Lowest calorie version
  • Most delicate flavor
  • Good when you want something very light
  • Best for people who prefer simplicity
+ Fried Egg
~$16.99 · Moderate

A fried egg floated on top of the soup. The egg yolk breaks when stirred into the broth, adding richness and body to the soup without changing its fundamental flavor. Popular in Korean soup culture.

  • Adds richness from the yolk
  • Moderate calorie increase
  • Familiar comfort food combination
  • Best if you want substance without beef
+ Bulgogi ✓ Best
~$18.99 · Most Filling

Korean marinated beef added to the udon soup. The bulgogi marinade — soy, sesame, garlic, sugar — releases into the broth as the beef cooks, fundamentally enriching the soup flavor and adding a sweet-savory Korean beef depth that makes it a complete meal.

  • Most filling version
  • Richest broth flavor
  • Highest protein (~35–45g)
  • Best overall version of the dish
Recommendation: Order the Bulgogi version. The beef marinade fundamentally improves the broth flavor and makes the soup a complete, filling Korean meal rather than a light side dish. The extra $3 over plain is absolutely worth it.

Verdict: Order Udon Noodle Soup if you want the only soup-format dish on the menu, prefer a warm and broth-based meal, or want a very different experience from the fried chicken and rice dishes. Avoid it if you are monitoring sodium — the broth is extremely high in sodium (est. ~4,000mg). For a low-sodium option, choose Chicken Katsu (672mg) or plain Bibimbap (315mg).
Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup cost?+

Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup starts at approximately $15.99 for the plain version. Adding a fried egg is approximately $16.99, and adding Bulgogi is approximately $18.99. Prices vary by location and are typically higher on DoorDash and Uber Eats.

Is Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup spicy?+

No — all three versions of the Udon Noodle Soup (plain, fried egg, and Bulgogi) have zero heat. The broth is savory and clean with no Korean chili. It is the mildest dish on the entire Bonchon main dishes menu and suitable for anyone including people who cannot tolerate any spice at all.

What allergens does Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup contain?+

Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup contains Wheat (in the udon noodles — udon is always wheat-based), Soy (in the broth), and Sesame (sesame oil finish). The fried egg version also contains Eggs. The official menu notes it contains sesame seeds or sesame seed oil. It is not gluten-free. Always confirm allergens with your specific location.

What are udon noodles?+

Udon are thick Japanese wheat flour noodles — much thicker and chewier than ramen noodles or spaghetti. They are soft, slightly elastic, and have a mild, neutral flavor that allows them to absorb broth deeply. Udon noodles are the dominant ingredient in the soup — substantial and filling in a way that thinner noodles are not.

Which version of the Udon Soup should I order?+

The Bulgogi version (~$18.99) is the best choice for most people — the beef marinade enriches the broth significantly and makes the soup a complete, filling meal. The Fried Egg version is good if you want something lighter without beef. The plain version is best if you want the cleanest, most delicate broth flavor or want to keep calories minimal.

Is Bonchon Udon Noodle Soup high in sodium?+

Yes — Udon Noodle Soup is extremely high in sodium, estimated at approximately 4,000mg+ per serving. This is because traditional udon broth is heavily salted and soy-seasoned by nature. If you are watching sodium, choose Chicken Katsu (672mg) or plain Bibimbap (315mg) instead.

Can I order Udon Noodle Soup for delivery?+

Yes — available through the Bonchon app, bonchon.com, DoorDash, and Uber Eats at most locations. However, soup dishes generally travel less well than fried or rice dishes. The broth may shift during transport and the noodles continue to absorb broth while in transit, making them softer by arrival. For the best experience, ordering Udon Noodle Soup for dine-in or quick pickup is recommended.

What To Order With It

Best Pairings

🍳
Wings (Soy Garlic)
The most popular pairing — crispy Soy Garlic Wings alongside warm Udon Soup. The contrast of crunchy fried chicken and warm soup broth creates a satisfying balance. Order Wings as a starter and the Udon as the main.
🥦
Kimchi — ~$3.99
A small side of kimchi alongside the soup adds the fermented, spicy element the broth lacks. Eating kimchi between spoonfuls of the mild udon broth creates the balanced Korean flavor profile that makes the meal feel complete.
🥑
Potstickers — ~$12.49
Korean pork dumplings as a starter. In traditional Korean and Japanese dining, dumplings alongside noodle soup is a classic combination — the dumplings are eaten while the soup is still steaming hot.
🧲
Pickled Radish — Free
Complimentary with any chicken order. The sweet-sour crunch of pickled radish works well alongside the warm broth — the acidity and crunch provide textural contrast to the soft noodles and broth.
