    Take out Fried Wings and rice balls
    Philip P.

    Okay, so I've been coming here a lot more times than expected and over the years, I've come to appreciate this place more. I've been liking the place so much that I end up buying take out every once in a while for parties, friends, and just to eat at home cause I'm craving some Korean Fried Chicken. Service has been a lot better with bringing out the food. I think that one experience left me with a sour taste in my mouth before which is why I'm updating my review after visiting this place more. Says a lot I think since I keep coming back. So usually I come here pretty late in the evenings and it gets crazy busy some nights, especially the weekends. They have a bunch of different flavors for the chicken and you can always have the sauce on the side. They also got some other great Korean street food and dishes like corn cheese and bossam. All the food goes pretty well with a nice cold beer or soju if you like to drink. It's a for sure solid spot to hang with friends while getting a bite to eat. This place will definitely be seeing more of me in the near future.

    The food here is delicious. And for the food alone, I would give a solid 4.5 stars out of five. After my first visit, I have been craving their short rib soup. The birth is light but extremely flavorful. The sweet potato noodles are the perfect texture, never overcooked with that nice soft chew and perfect for slurping. The beef rib is tender and full of flavor, just like broth. Pro tip, when you're done with the noodles add some rice to your broth. The chicken wings are always delicious. Crispy on the outside and juicy In the outside. The batter in the chicken is not too heavy either. The wings are big too. Plenty of meat on these wings. We did get a small side of banchan with the wings consisting of fermented kimchi, cucumber and fish cakes. The reason for the lack of stars is because on our last visit, we walked in at opening and almost all the tables had remnants of guests being there. Mostly eaten food, empty glasses and lots of dishes on the tables. Halfway through our meal, it clicked in our heads that it was all leftover from closing. So instead of cleaning at the end of their late service, it was left to be cleaned the next day. Our server was attentive to us & we did order from a QFC menu and he did take our payment at the table. So definitely no qualms about the service for us while we were there. Would I come back? I cannot lie I love their short rib soup. But low key worried about the housekeeping of it all.

    Seafood pancake Corn Cheese

    Came here on a weekday evening, not too busy, which makes the customer service experience even more pleasant. The interior looked different throughout the years with different seating, lighting and tv. They also offer complimentary popcorn and peanuts when you wait for the food. A new item I never had was the rose Tteok-bokki, super creamy, not too spicy and rice cakes were chewy and delicious. Also, there's something new with the fried chicken where you can order different sauces each sauce cost two dollars in addition to the $30 fried chicken we ordered three sauce which came to the total of six dollar. I don't know if I like the sauce being on the side because we usually get the sauce mixed in with the chicken, which I would prefer more, but the chicken itself was very good and crunchy. Seafood pancake and corn cheese was solid as always. I think the quality and taste of the food is better than it used to be. I would go back again for the chicken and rice cakes.

    Parmesan Wings + Honey Garlic Wings
    Lisa V.

    Kochi Po-Cha is such a great hang out spot! It's very casual and serves dishes and sides that go well with alcohol (soju). The service was okay, since you can sit yourself anywhere and order through a QR code. The food has a bit of a long wait time, but totally worth it since everything is made to order. We tried the tteokbokki, which had really chewy rice cakes and fish cake. We also had to add cheese and ramen, which elevated the quality of this dish. You simply can't go wrong with tteokbokki, so there wasn't anything too special about this dish compared to other tteokbokki spots. The beef bulgogi was very rich in flavor, it was seasoned and garnished perfectly. I loved how soft the meat was, and I would definitely recommend ordering this dish since it comes out on a hot stone plate and stays warm throughout your meal. I would recommend ordering a side of rice to have with this meal. I had to try the Korean fried chicken here, since I'm a frequent customer at Da-Wa (another Korean restaurant next door) and I LOVE their fried chicken. This place did not disappoint, because now I have two favorite Korean fried chicken spots. The Parmesan wings consists of a dry rub, while the honey garlic wings are more saucy. Both were so delicious and crispy, but my favorite was the honey garlic since it was sweet and savory. Overall, the portions here are very generous for the price. It's nice coming here with a group of friends and being able to share everything. I would definitely come here again for the Korean fried chicken!

    What a great find on the way back from a hike. This place is open late and has great ambience. We ordered the spicy seafood soup and this paired really well with white rice. This was so nourishing after our hike. There's plenty of seafood bits with squid and mussels and it wasn't terribly spicy. The fried chicken was the star of the show but we definitely got lucky. They said they just changed out the oil before the start of the next day but they made a batch of chicken for us with the fresh oil. The breading was really lightly colored and the chicken was juicy and tender throughout. Most Korean fried chicken I've had before tends to be a little darker and has a more burnt flavor but this was extremely fresh. Will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area!

    Love the vibes of Kochi Po-cha! The lighting and decoration in here is just simply too cute, and they have a bunch of drinking games available for if you want to come and get drunk with friends :) We ordered the half and half fried chicken and grilled octopus for the 3 of us, and the amount was poppin off. We had to take a handful of pieces of chicken to go. The honey garlic and sweet and spicy sauces are so tasty, but I wish we tried the parmesan instead because they were a bit similar to each other. Servers were friendly and we waited a bit for our dinner, but overall had a great time.

    Excellent value Korean fried chicken and other comfort food! My friends and I came here after a casual hike after work, so it was fairly late, around 9:30pm, and being Seattle, almost all the restaurants are closed. Fortunately, this one was high up on my list of restaurants to try, so we went here. It was decently busy on a Monday night, but there were plenty of tables. You scan the QR code to order, so we got the special (full order Korean fried chicken + pitcher of beer for $34.99) and creamy rose rice cake with noodles and cheese add on. While the rice cake (with add-ons costed $26) was on the expensive side, the value came from the special. A full order of Korean fried chicken was $29.99 to begin with, so you basically just pay $5 extra for a giant pitcher of beer that the 3 of us barely got halfway. For the chicken, we got volcano (which is a spicier version of sweet and spicy) and honey garlic sauces, both of which were great flavors. The volcano was spicy but still manageable for me, and the honey garlic had a nice sweetness yet still has lots of garlic flavor. The chicken is fairly juicy and tender, and the batter is nicely crispy. Service is okay, fairly hands off, but to be expected in a typical Korean restaurant, so emphasis of the review is on the food which is solid. It is high up there in comparison to some of my favorite Korean fried chicken places such as Sodam Chicken, but it is slightly better based off the value.

    First time trying this place. Fun interiors
    Erin W.

    First time coming here on a Thursday evening. No wait and many empty tables at the time. We ordered off a menu via scanning the QR code on our mobile. We still needed to go to the counter to pay though. Friendly staff. Spacious environment. Free popcorns. The food was pretty good. Noted there were no side dishes like other places would offer. I noticed some food on the chair before I sat down and I cleaned it.

    Makchang
    Christine E.

    Was greeted upon walking in, but my order wasn't taken for quite some time and there only two other tables besides me... Went specifically for the Makchang. There are three side orders that came with my entree: fishcake sautee, kimchi, and potato salad. The main star of the show was the Makchang- they asked if I preferred beef or pig intestine. I opted for the pig. Some parts were gamey and extremely chewy. They prepare on a stone dish and it comes out sizzling over sliced onions and roasted garlic with chives, special sauce, and home fried potato chips over top. The portion is very generous. Could serve 2-4 people. Ambiance is very welcoming and inviting. You can leave your mark and write something special on the walls. Will be back again.

    Spicy Stir-Fried Rice Cake
    Judi W.

    Perfect place for some late night bite! Came here after night snowboarding and we got seated immediately! FOOD: Spicy Stir Fried Rice Cake - One of my favorite dishes and you can't go wrong with it. Something about their rice cake is that it's SUPER squishy, soft and chewy! I was very surprised by how soft it was. It's different from other rice cakes that I've had. Definitely a pleasant surprise. It's the perfect amount of spice without it being too painful. Plus the ramen made it an even better combo. Corn Cheese - Another classic dish that you can't go wrong with. Tasted just as expected. Fried Chicken - The other dishes were great but I'll have to say I was not a fan of the fried chicken. There's very little batter so it wasn't all that crispy and fried. The sauce/flavor is simply added onto the chicken and for some reason the two sauces we got (sweet and spicy & honey garlic) were very watery. I wish that the meats could have been marinated to have more flavor to them. But overall, I was not a fan of the fried chicken and neither were my friends. In terms of serving time, we did have to wait a bit for our food. Two of our friends received their order first while it took a lot longer for our food to come. They take orders through their website which was very nice and efficient!

    Half & Half Chicken Spicy Stir-Fried Rice Cake
    Vanessa H.

    It was my first time at Kochi Po-cha and I was really excited to try everything! We went at around 9pm at night and we were able to get seated almost immediately, even with a large party. The interior is kind of dark and has plenty of seating. This place is perfect for late night hangouts with friends and we saw many other groups hanging out here as well. We got half and half chicken, however I forgot which flavors we got. The chicken texture was perfect!! I loved how crispy it was and how they gave a variety of pieces of chicken (drums, thighs). I also really enjoyed their spicy rice cakes, which wasn't too sweet and had the perfect flavor! :) Overall, this is definitely a spot I see myself going back to in the future with friends!

Outdoor Games & Family-Friendly Vibes Edway isn't just for the 21+ crowd, it's proudly kid-friendly, with outdoor games like cornhole that keep everyone entertained and ladder golf. The spacious patio makes it easy to relax while the little ones play, and the welcoming atmosphere means families feel right at home. Also dogs allowed so that's my main reason for going too! Plenty of space means you won't be elbowing for a view, and the laid-back atmosphere makes it easy to settle in for a full match. While Edway doesn't serve food directly just some odd and ends like a pretzel I saw on the menu, they host a rotating cast of food trucks. Great find!

They have various events going on throughout the month. If you are interested in board games or want to get started, they seem like a great spot to start! I also loved that they did not have a cover charge, such as some game shops have, unless you order, which I do understand and I am sure helps with use and overhead of wear and tear on the games, but they seem to be a community gem and get ample support. Would definitely visit again! Service was great and everyone was so friendly on both of our visits.

Kitchen is serving great pub grub. In long This one hovered in my mind between 4 and 5 stars for a while. It's not quite a basic place, but they maybe could live with being called that. Bottom line, even if it's not for absolutely everyone, the people who come in and enjoy it won't feel like anything's missing at all, so it's five stars. You pull up to kind of a crummy parking lot in front of kind of a crummy-looking strip mall, and you walk through a heavy security door. Nothing looks or feels fancy from outside. Inside, though, everything's clean and well lit. All the furniture is well made; there are lots of custom booths and the light fixtures all match. You don't feel a sense of luxury, but they built this place from the ground up, they built it right, and it's a nice antidote to the exterior vibe. There are at least a dozen huge flatscreens up around the room, at least downstairs. Evidently there's a whole upstairs that we didn't even check out. There aren't a ton of sports decorations, they keep it tidy--but the TVs are showing sports news or the game. This place must get thumping for big games. I can't even imagine trying to park those days. You get a warm greeting right away, with menus on your table in seconds. The menu is a lot of dependable old pub-grub favorites. Pizzas, burgers, sandwiches, chips, rings, fries, and so on. Thing is, they put a lot of thought and effort into each one, kinda going for bragging rights for the best in town on lots of simple dishes. They make the onion rings in house, I'd bet. You can add garlic and parmesan to your chips. The sandwiches are built right with plenty of filling. Prices are competitive, and you will definitely get full. Some people who love to eat love pub grub, and some of those people built the menu and designed the recipes here. We had a couple rounds of cocktails, and all of them did the trick. Made well, served right, good balance of sweetness, good flavors. If this place were a little closer we'd be here a lot.
