    3rd time at Hanshin Pocha. I always enjoy my food here, but I always get the same thing (see pictures). My friends who came with me (first timers) thought their food was just okay. I tried my friend's seafood noodle dish and it tasted great to me. Her comment about it was it's messy to eat because of the shell on the shrimp and mussels. The servers are always nice. I like that they have a ringer in case you need anything from the server, so they don't have to keep checking on you. Hanshin has a bar vibe but it's honestly pretty family friendly. It's very spacious too.

    Definitely has been a spot I have wanted to try out since my recent Korea trip. It was such a perfect environment with plenty of Kpop bumping and great Korean bar food to enjoy. On top of that the service was great and very inviting We got the Soy Garlic Korean fried chicken that was so delicious and a good sized portion that can be shared between three or four people easily. It's that great KFC crunch that very juicy! We got the Spicy pork with cheese that really brought me back to eating Dak Galbi in Seoul. I would recommend getting a side of noodles to mix it all together. That took the dish to a whole new level. The spice of the pork and the cheese with the noodles made it such a solid dish Once again, this place is great for awesome Korean bar food and has a very fun environment. Also it's open late too! If you love Korean food, you will love this place

    Seafood Chive Pancake
    Bronson S.

    Came to meet up with a friend for dinner on a weekday and it wasn't very busy so we were quickly seated. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and they had a button on the table to call them over whenever you needed something. We got the grilled soy and butter squid, seafood pancake, and bugolgi hot pot. The grilled squid was our favorite part of the meal, the flavor was very umami, slight sweet, and very buttery. The texture of the squid was tender too and not chewy. The other two dishes were just okay though, the seafood wasn't really mixed into the pancake and more-so placed on top, which I think led to it being a little dry and chewy. This also made the seafood fall off as you were eating it. As for the bulgogi hot pot, the soup was just a little too sweet for our liking.

    Interior, lots of Korean ambiance, music videos, very spacious

    First time here. Tried the stir fry udon noodles with beef brisket , very good. Service was attentive and accommodating

    Went here with some peeps! This place was cool, got here as soon as they opened. Nice open seating, not crowded. Our waiter greeted us at the door, he was very kind and happy and talkative, he made this experience a whole lot more relaxing! I honestly don't know what we ordered, I seen the grilled squid and requested that, we all sort of ordered whatever and shared it. The kimchi fried rice was bomb! Of course we got some Lychee soju, numerous bottles lol. This place was chill, I look forward to coming back!!

    We came here with friends and had an amazing time! The space is large, clean, and fun. They play kpop music with their televisions showing girl groups and boy groups dancing. I love it. Service was excellent and I love that they have the call button at each table so you're not having to wave someone down. We got the chicken with cheese, rolled cheese omelet, rice balls, odeng soup, and gizzards. We enjoyed every dish and would definitely come back again!

    Buldak Stir-Fried Noodles
    Christine N.

    I go here all the time, and that's not an exaggeration. I love it here. The food, service, and vibes are awesome. It's great that they're one of the few late night open spots. Go with friends, drink some soju, and eat some delicious food. Some of my favorites are the whole fried chicken, green onion chicken, carbonara tteobokki, diy rice balls, whole grilled squid, LA galbi.

    Krush
    Tiffany V.

    My fiancé and I came on a casual Tuesday night and we met CJ (manager) as our waiter and had the quickest service possible. The food came out delicious and hot in no time. The pork cheese and teok is our favorite combo on this earth. We were convinced to try Korea's new beer, Krush. It is similar to a Modelo or heavy coors beer. We enjoyed two beers and the manager offered one on the house! The environment was clean and the neon lights added chill night vibes. We will be back!

    Tteokbokki
    Elena L.

    I love this place, Very spicy, beware but in the best way! I've come here for the late night munchies twice now and it doesn't disappoint! There are tons of layers of flavor in the dishes you can taste the effort. I got the tteoboki and the kimchi stew. It was so amazing the perfect amount of sweetness, saltiness and ingredients added into each dish. I would not skip on the tteoboki especially, I loved it. The service was great too, we come here late and the girls were so nice and welcoming! The inside of the place is very open, with a neon street ambiance. It's definitely a cool place to see.

    Cheesy Pork
    Andrew s.

    At Hanshin Pocha in Mesa, AZ, prepare for a Korean street food adventure that's as fiery as a K-drama romance! Their BBQ pork with gochujang sauce, paired with a sizzling blanket of melted cheese, is a flavor explosion--spicy, savory, and gooey enough to make you forget your table manners. The DIY rice balls are a fun touch, perfect for soaking up the heat, and the late-night vibe (open until 2 AM on weekends!) makes it a go-to for nocturnal foodies. With Chamisul Fresh to wash it all down and a staff that's as warm as the cast-iron plates, this spot is a Mesa gem. Just don't expect to decode their menu without a dictionary--some dishes might leave you puzzled, but delightfully so!

    Pork Mozzarella Cheese Fondue
    Glicy Jane T.

    We tried Hanshin Pocha and ordered the pork cheese fondue, bulgogi hot pot, seafood chive pancake, and donkatsu. The food itself was just okay--nothing really stood out, but it wasn't bad either. The biggest issue we had was with the pacing of service. Our main dishes came out first, and it seemed like the kitchen forgot to put in our seafood chive pancake order. We followed up when we were already nearly done eating and asked to cancel it, but they still brought it out and didn't accommodate the request. It made the meal feel a bit disorganized and rushed at the end. Overall, an average experience--fine for a casual night out, but probably wouldn't go out of my way to return.

    Delicious soju
    Mstng O.

    Wowie, this place is delicious! So many restaurants around here have only one or two tasty items on the menu but every time I come here I try something new & it's delicious. The music is fun & they play music videos with interesting visuals. The staff has always been friendly & solicitous for all my visits.

My go-to dishes are the Yook Gae Jang (육개장) and the Dol Pan Bibim Bap (돌판비빔밥). We also love ordering the Eun Daegu Jorim (은대구조림). Unfortunately, they no longer allow call-ahead orders for that dish because too many people would place orders and never show up. I do wish they would consider taking payment over the phone since it takes quite a while to prepare. The restaurant gets very busy during both lunch and dinner hours, so patience is key. The staff is often short-handed, but they work hard and are constantly moving to take care of everyone as best they can. Despite the wait at times, the food is consistently delicious and keeps us coming back.

They are a bit busy so we had to flag them to come over. We split the army stew. This had sausage, spam, rice cakes, ramen, and kimchi, I believe. Everything was very flavorful and went well with the rice. It's also a pretty big portion for two people and I want to say it was around the ballpark of $30. We got the complimentary banchan (side dishes), which was nice. Our favorite side dishes were the braised potatoes and the spinach. I don't love candied sweet potatoes or potatoes for that fact but these were so soft and tender. There is plenty of parking in the area, which is quite nice. I'll be back here the next time I am in the area.

My friends and I came to this place together because I had been before and liked the Korean food here. Food was legit and was a good experience previously. However, the day we came in, the waitress got my friend's order wrong as my friend wanted the bibimbap but the waitress heard something else and brought out a soup. When my friend immediately told her that isnt what she ordered, the waitress (new) proceeded to argue with my friend. I watched incredulously as things started to unfold. The waitress even asked my friend to pronounce bimbimpap again and told her she should learn how to pronounce it better. She kept arguing wirh my friend and mind you, waitess wasnt Korean or Korean American. At this point, I had to step in, as I also heard my friend say bibimbap clearly. The waitress didnt know what she was talking about and at the same time was being rude as heck to my friend. Then, my other friend shows up and orders a bibimpap. When the bibimpap is brought out, I asked her to bring some gochujang for my friend. I didnt know if my friend would like this chili paste, so wanted her to have the option to try it. The waitress again decided to argue about this and at this point, she was really testing my nerve. She said bibimpap doesn't come with gochujang and I am like thinking are you crazy, woman? I am not Korean but I have been eating Korean food for 30+ years, I know what I am talking about. She then asked me to repeat gochujang several times and I was very annoyed at this point. Its like, look lady, you dont know what youre talking about, stop sticking your foot in your mouth and come on, be nice to your customers! Because of this terrible behavior, I asked to speak to a manager, a woman came over and listened to what happened and apologized and thats how we found out she was new. I was beyond frustrated at this point. Despite the horrible service, I still left a 10% tip, but honestly the waitress deserves zilch and needed more training. The food is solid here but I wont be returning with that kind of behavior, I can choose where my money goes, and these days with it being so hard to get by, good luck to this place as I am not coming back.

We came on a weekday afternoon, so it wasn't busy when we arrived. We got seated within the 10 minutes since they were setting up the tables for us. Ordering is fairly easy since they offer combos depending which meats you like more. Everything we ordered was good quality. My favorite meat cuts were the beef tongue, brisket and the intestines. If you're not into eating inside parts of animals, I would recommend getting the brisket or kalbi cuts. The Banchan (sides) were good too. They had fish cake, kimchi, pickled radish and cucumbers available. We also tried the tofu soup, steamed egg and corn cheese which all came out hot and tasted flavorful. This spot is a-la-carte, so you order off the menu and pay by items. My only downside is that they didn't have rice paper here since I don't really eat the white rice since it fills me up too quickly. Other than that, I would come back here again next time I'm visiting family. Service here was awesome too! We were checked on throughout our whole meal and the servers were friendly.

They are a little further than I typically would have gone for delivery, but we figured it would travel well and were craving something from our usual Mexican food fix.

I got part brown rice and greens with every veggie option I could get! I was unable to add an egg on the delivery platform, (maybe due to poor traveling?), though it does look like they may offer this in person. We then got some kimchi fries to share. You also get your option of protein on this, which we had selected chicken bulgogi. Shortly after placing order, we received a call from the Bibio team that they were out of a few sauces we had selected, as well as the chicken bulgogi, we made some quick substitutes and upon delivery they had included some complimentary mandu which were delicious and a really kind gesture and really went the extra mile without having to. Overall, everything we got was delicious, flavorful, awesome portions and great as leftovers. The kimchi fries were very good, but I think better for dining in, as most fries are, so I would absolutely order and try them again on an in person visit, but maybe avoid for long drives. Thanks so the great Bibio team for a wonderful first experience and extra great service even while dining out!
