    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small eating area but the hot cheeto corn dog was so good I got the pepper jack and hot dog.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was very nice kept offering samples of different drinks. I had the kiwi drink so sweet and good taste just like kiwi. Spam musubi was very delicious as well! Spicy mayo on everything.

    A small family-ran korean streetfood restaurant. They offer militsry discounts and have consistently great food! I have enjoyed every dish I ordered here (except for the japchae which just tasted like soy sauce but that is a preference thing). Their tteokboki is nice and spicy served with crunchy lettuce and an egg. Their fried rice meals have great giant servings and their korean hotdogs are the best I have had so far! I am particular about the hotdogs and I enjoy theirs a lot. I always get the ramen-covered korean hotdog half cheese. My friends love their flaming hot cheetos korean hotdogs. Give this place a try! And get a fruit smoothie too!

    Came after wanting a Korean corn dog and found Hot Juicy 88. Having not been there it took a second to realize that you order from a touchscreen. There are lots of options to choose from. The corn dogs were good and I liked the 88 the most with half pepper jack half hot dog. I got it coated with potato. The one item I tried that was not to my liking was the mango juicy drink. I thought it was real fruit alas it was a powder and water? and had a very chemical taste. The sausage and rice cake on a stick was tasty. The rice cakes did taste overdone/overly chewy. I should have asked questions and will do so next time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Love that this place is open fairly late! Went here for a quick boba and munchies run. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice clean spot and everything came out fairly quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The hotdogs were pretty good, but I felt like the boba and other food could've been better. The boba wasn't as good as what you'd get from a dedicated boba shop, but still a little better than boba served at an Asian restaurant. Overall though, solid spot especially given limited late night options around the area.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]When you first walk in, it's a very nice small cute restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's a screen upfront where you can order from makes it really easy and you can customize your order. It took about 10 minutes from my food to come out. The workers were nice and at the tables, they have a little container full of all the utensils you'll need which I think is really smart and cool. I was very satisfied with the two things that I ordered. They were very, very good. The Korean corn dog was very hot, but still good. Lol I would definitely come back again!

    Cute little menu !

    The menu is quite extensive and amazing! The customer service is on point. He has a lot of knowledge about their food selections and was able to assist us with getting the best selection for us. He even gave my grandson a juice drink for free!! Will definitely be going back soon!

    I had come here but had forgotten but since I've moved closer I'm fortunate to be able to come back! Now I've never been to Korea but I felt like I was able to sample it if this is what it's like, haha they have drinks and many corn dog toppings to choose from. Service was fast and hospital WHAT I ORDERED: *Hot Cheetos corn dog-half mozzarella and wiener *Potato corn dog-half mozzarella and wiener My hot Cheetos dog came with American cheese when I ordered mozzarella but I'm sure that was because of the language barrier so I'm not tripping, it was still good. It didn't have as much flakes as I anticipated/wanted but the flavor was still there The potato corn dog was very filling!! My only critique is that I'd like the cheese around the dog instead of cheese first then dog later. These two items totaled in $14. Definitely not an everyday thing but I'll be going back to try the OREO topping and fries!!

    Menu, dining area.

    The service was more than great! We ordered the kiwi boba as well(which isn't in the pictures) but It was delicious because it was fresh and naturally sweet! (10/10)They were very attentive and helpful! We were the last customers there right before closing so we took our order to go so they can close up on time and they threw in some complimentary items for waiting since it was longer than usual( the wait time was fast though! Great food takes time to make!!) [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed looking around and being in the shop,looking further at the menu and listening to the good K-pop they were playing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The owners are so sweet and we lovedddddd the food! The portions are big so we got full quick! Our first time trying corn dogs like this and we enjoyed it sooo much! We'll be ordering again soon!

    Was lucky enough to be right next door to this place getting my nails done or I might have not known about it. Upon walking in, I noticed the cleanliness and how nice the workers were and helpful too! They have tons of options for hotdogs. Whether you are a vegetarian or you like meat-this is the ultimate Korean snack spot! Flavors were on point and even there smoothies are delicious. I didn't actually get my own smoothie but my daughter did and she loved it. They brought me the mango smoothie sample while I was waiting and it was the best! You can even get boba in your smoothie! I will most definitely be back! This place will not disappoint! Plus I think people that treat there customers so well deserve all the business and the food being hot and yummy!

    Ramen crusted beef corndog

    Had a doctor appointment nearby at the Aurora Medical Center, so decided to check this place out rather than driving further to try other corn dog spots out. For the corn dogs, you first pick what kind of dog you want (all beef, cheese, beef with an american cheese slice wrapped around it, half meat and half cheese, etc) then choose what you want it battered with (regular, potato, hot cheetos, ramen, etc). You also choose what you want for dipping sauce (ketchup, mustard, spicy mayo, wasabi mayo, etc). We got 2 regular, 1 hot cheetos and 1 ramen. The batter and crusts were good -- ramen being the kids favorite. The hot dogs inside were disappointing. Small and very plain/boiled. No good texture or flavor to them. Some of the corn dogs also had a lot (too much) batter on them before the crust, which made the ratio to meat even worse. The kimbap was a winner. Seasoned well and good portion size. Would I come back? Maybe to try their entree items, but not for corn dogs unfortunately.

    Def eat it there instead of to-go and def add the spicy mayo and hot Cheeto dust. Super tasty!!

That's a pretty strong endorsement. Also the interior of the restaurant was fairly modern and clean. For anyone unfamiliar with it, soondae (순대) is a traditional Korean blood sausage made by stuffing pork or beef intestines with a mixture of blood, glass noodles, rice or starch, and seasonings. It's one of Korea's most popular street foods and is typically enjoyed with salt or a dipping sauce. One thing to know before you go: this restaurant specializes in soup-based dishes. Every entrée revolves around soup, including the bulgogi. I had never seen bulgogi served in a broth before, so it was a pleasant surprise for both my boyfriend and me. Most of the soups also included clear glass noodles and came in a wide variety of combinations, so there were plenty of options to choose from. One detail I really appreciated was their takeout packaging. If you have leftovers, they use a professional heat-sealing machine that applies a thin plastic seal over the container before the lid goes on. It's a thoughtful touch that keeps the soup leak-proof and makes transporting leftovers much easier. If you're craving authentic Korean comfort food--especially soondae soup--this place is definitely worth a visit.

At least for lunch combo, the thoughtful assortment of main dish and side dishes as well as soup of the day are very satisfactory. Their food is little bit more on a savory side compared to other Korean restaurants who use too many spices. Before I met Baekga, i was pretty disappointed in local franchises of Korean eateries in Colorado, but Baekga not only they have very calm and toned down atmosphere for pleasant meals, it is the venue I would actually bring my visitors to. The location is little far for me to explore their dinner menus but I would love to when I am nearby next time. Champagne kimchi was inspiring. I never had any kind of Kimchi taste like this. I really praise for the creativity. It would be a good pair with a variety of food such as charcuterie board, katsu, sausage dish, barbecue, and simple with wine! I personally liked Dakgangjeong, Beef radish soup (soup of the day), and champagne kimchi from my visit. Frankly, this venue maybe a polarizing Korean restaurant especially for Korean natives, but I personally think this venue deserves more recognition compared to other local Korean franchise in Denver/Aurora who just serve the food items but not the sincerity and/or creativity.

I'm glad we came and discovered another restaurant we can add to our list. It's def a more modern Korean restaurant from the interior alone. But food was delicious. I was interested in a lot of items on the menu u so it was hard to choose from. The dakgalbi lunch special was an actual full on lunch with sides and soup. The galbi tang was pretty good. The meat is some of the best I've had in CO. It was very tender and fell off the bone very easily. The La galbi was so good and flavorful. When it's mixed with the onions and veggies and rice, everything tastes really good combined. I would skip on the pancakes because they were a little burnt. We saw a different one come out and it was also burnt. Otherwise, eat around because it's quite flavorful.

The experience here is exactly what I want from Korean BBQ: lively, satisfying, and easy to settle into for a while. The cheese corn is an absolute must and easily one of the best sides on the table. The steamed egg was fluffy and comforting, and the meats were the real highlight. The pork belly was rich and well cut, the bulgogi was flavorful, and the short ribs were tender and cooked beautifully. Add a few bottles of soju and suddenly you've lost track of time in the best way. This is the kind of place you go with friends, order generously, and just enjoy the night.

Everything is a la carte. On Sundays they were doing buy one get one draft beers and that is about the only thing that is considered a deal $9 for 2 draft beers. We weren't sure if the banchan refill were free as the menu indicated extra sides are more $$. So we didn't get anymore banchan than the ones they brought over. The pajeon was limpy and lack of caramelization... I did not try the corn cheese but I was told it was very sweet... We ordered the combo deals that's a tofu soup with a grilled meat of your choice for about $30-38 a person, depending on the meat of your choice. The meat is tasty, the bulgogi is a little bit on the sweet side... and the tofu soup... it's probably the most saddest, mediocre Korean tofu soup I've ever had, and essentially $20 a pop - definitely not worth it. The broth flavor was good, the soup literally had tofu and the meat of your choice... no veggies, no kimchi, no egg... The employees were nice but they didn't come check in on how the meal was until towards the end... we had asked for more napkins when we sat down and the napkins never showed up. Mandatory 20% tips added to a party of 5+. At least they called out that the price was with tips added. I really hope to like this place more... but looks like I'd need to trek back to Aurora for quality and better pricing.

The interior was immediately green flags - l loved the decor and wood tones. It felt like I was in Korea! The menu is your typical pocha fare - soups, Korean pancakes, army stew, KBBQ meats. We ordered the jalapeño soy chicken wings, volcano pork, and the kimchi fried rice. My favorite was the chicken wings, really crunchy with good flavor and the wings were decently sized. The volcano pork came over a fire burner and cooked at our table. It was definitely pretty spicy but paired really well with the kimchi fried rice, which I thought could be spicier. The pork quality was ok but I really liked the flavors and the bean sprouts in the pot. I particularly love that K Pocha has zero sugar soju on the menu no sugar = no hangovers!) I always drink the brand with the fox on it and squeeze a bit of lemon into the shot. We were served by the owner and the service was efficient. He didn't seem to speak the best English so we had to have one of our friends translate when we asked questions, but he was really nice and welcoming. K Pocha seems to be pretty new, so I will hopefully be back soon to support his business! I definitely want to try the army stew and the tofu soups.

Unfortunately, the experience was mixed--and ultimately disappointing. Before the meal, I stopped by the restroom to wash my hands. Both soap dispensers were empty or not working. I notified the bathroom attendant, assuming it would be quickly addressed. At the time, I brushed it off as a minor oversight. One of the highlights of Korean BBQ is always the variety of vegetable side dishes, and this visit did not disappoint in that regard. The assortment of banchan was plentiful--definitely the best part of the meal and something I always look forward to. However, the main dish fell short. I ordered the Kalbi Tang, which was quite disappointing. The beef ribs were clearly undercooked; the meat was tough, bristly, and difficult to chew. Instead of the tender, slow-cooked texture you expect from this dish. After the meal, I returned to the restroom--and to my surprise, the soap dispensers were still not working. This was no longer a small issue. It raised a serious concern: if customers didn't have access to soap, it's very possible that employees didn't either. The thought that staff might be handling food without properly washing their hands is unsettling and frankly unacceptable. I once heard a food inspector say that if you want to judge a restaurant, check the bathroom first. If they don't care about maintaining a basic level of cleanliness, it often reflects what's happening behind the scenes. Unfortunately, this experience reinforced that idea. While the side dishes were enjoyable, the combination of poor entree quality and concerning hygiene issues makes it hard to recommend returning anytime soon.
