Sometimes those late night munchies just hit. On weekdays, their kitchen is open until around 1am, which is pretty good since most places close earlier on weekdays vs. weekends. We shared their spicy rice cakes, fried dumplings, and popcorn chicken. Their popcorn chicken definitely has a kick to it, so heads up if you are sensitive to spice! Spicy rice cakes were good--satisfied my craving for them and the sauce was nice and thick and coated the rice cakes well. Fried dumplings were okay, but I would skip them next time. They get busy on the weekends! If you have a large group, call ahead to reserve tables and they can definitely accommodate (I've been here with a group of 26 people before LOL). They have call bells on the table so you can always get someone's attention if you need anything. read more

The ambiance here was great (pretty flowers and lights), the server was super friendly, the soju prices are perfect (2 for 1 deal!), but the food was very questionable. The menu is tiny. I wish I took a photo (I think someone else posted one), but the food options were slim. We got the army stew, stir fried pork, and french fries as well as 6 bottles of soju. The army stew had no flavor and the stir fried pork was sticky, burnt, and tasteless all at the same time. The french fries were also stale and had no salt. I love the decor of Pocha Pocha, and they honestly did mostly everything right. Next time I come, it will be for the alcohol and not the food. read more

Pocha Pocha - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

Closed from what I've seen! No sight of it. Drove to this exact location for a birthday pre game and there is no Pocha Pocha unfortunately.

Happy 2000th Review!! So happy to ring this one in while I'm traveling in NY with the best group of friends. Since our college days my friends and I have frequented Sooljips, aka Korean bars, since they have always had great snacks, affordable alcohol and consistency lead to a great time. All these years and we're still the same! Pocha Pocha was conveniently located near us while we were looking up a spot for dinner. This is probably more of an after party spot, but we wanted to streamline and skip to the fun. The interior was super cute and I love the dim lit ambiance with string lights. They also have exterior seating but it was a rainy day and we opted for the inside. Lily was our amazingggggg waitress and she took care of us all night long. She was super friendly, sweet and attentive. Her other team members were fun and friendly also. They brought out complimentary popcorn and plenty of water for the table. These drunk snackies are huge portions and meant to be shared so we went with the Army Stew ($22.99), Grilled Chicken Gizzard ($20.99), Corn Cheese ($??) and Kim Chee Pancake ($14.99). And a fewwww Chamisul Fresh ($12.99) and Chamisul Grapefruit ($12.99). Probably like 6 or 7 bottles?!?! Anyways the soju was the first to come out naturally and I LOVE that they had this special color changing coaster for the soju bottle. This is liiiiiiiit!! We were so excited Lily actually came back with more lighting coasters for us all to have one for our shot glasses. How nice! Their level of service is definitely above and beyond because they even moved an additional table to combine with our existing space so we would have more room for our food! How thoughtful! As the food came out my friends and I were in love with all of the drunk munchies we ordered. I am in love with corn cheese and I have it anytime I see it on the menu and this was legit one of the best corn cheeses I've ever had. If I was a local I can see myself being a Pocha Pocha regular and blowing my paychecks on corn cheese and soju. What an INCREDIBLE NIGHT. Sending love and good vibes to Lily and her team who took good care of us all night. Cheeeerrrsss! read more

Found this Pocha on Google while I was in Flushing last night. Been to a couple different ones nearby but wanted to try a new place. The ambiance is definitely 90s old school with the music and decor they had going on. They have a decent amount of seating and a backyard with heated lamps. The prices are slightly more expensive here, and there aren't that many small appetizer choices. I believe the cheapest food item was $14.99 which is a bit steep, especially if you are just looking for small food items to munch on while drinking. I can't speak to the food quality but the drinks/pocha vibes were very on par and the service was great! read more

they were so nice! great environment good spot to chill w friends we loved it here. They even gave us free cheesecake! good food and service

Very cute vibes instead that I didn't expect looking in from the outside. Great for a group of friends for late night drinking and snacks! We got a couple of things to snack on to pair with our soju and beer and everything was very tasty. Would say something's are overpriced but that's expected when you go out for drinks. read more

Stopped by here for the first time after my night flight and wow, so impressed by the lady who served us. She was incredibly kind and patient with our orders, food, and everything. The tofu stew was great and it was a killer combo with rice. Great vibes here and would love to come again. read more

we had a table for 10+ people and had made a reservation the week prior with someone on the phone, but when we got there, the host stared at us blank in the face, saying she wasn't aware of our reservation. turns out that the person on the phone was new, so she hadn't known it's not possible to reserve for 10+ people without confirmation of $35 min per person etc agreements. they were able to accommodate us after some back and forth thankfully. the new waiter served us and she was very nice but we definitely noticed a lack of attention to customer service because every time we were served soup or some dish, we had to then ask for a ladle, bowls, shot glasses for the bottles of soju we ordered, etc. i know it's tough to accommodate a big group but when the restaurant is fairly empty with 2 other tables, i'd hope to be cared for a little more than the bare minimum. we all really liked the ambiance indoors but were a little disappointed with the service. the food was pretty standard for pocha food- i would recommend the chicken karaage and the seafood stew (but note that it doesn't come w noodles!) for a $700+ spend with a big party, i hate to say i'd likely try somewhere else in the area next time. read more

Excellent food, service, and pub atmosphere, and probably where all Koreans go at night for a drink with friends and some comforting food while you're at it. Fairly new restaurant with a caring attentive staff. We called and made sure they were closing at 2AM so we could come in for some late night stew. We were treated to some chilled white daikon/kimchi soup while we waited for the food. The army stew and seafood stew were presented on table gas stoves. Out of the two, we preferred the army stew with ramen noodles, pork slices, sausage, veg, onion, and spam bubbling away in a slightly sweet mildly spicy stew similar to tofu soup. Perfect with some perfectly cooked Korean rice. The seafood stew had a variety of shellfish including crab, mussels, giant clams, with veg and firm tofu to soak up the intense broth. Good hearty food. tl;dr get the army stew spicy and maybe try to ask to add some more sliced pork. Definitely the atmosphere to get an alcoholic beverage to go with the food. Immaculate service. Can't wait to return. read more

I recommend this business because the food is good and prices is reasonable and the service is good. Use the code: Toad for a 5% discount. Happy hour is Sunday through Thursday 5pm to 8:30pm. 25% off soju and beer. And inquire within for an additional chance to win a bottle of soju. Say, to the server I would like to play toad shots. Its a game of getting a number from 1 to 30. Good Luck! read more

I've been to this location on multiple occasions, and the some of the workers there are extremely rude. Specifically Esther has served me multiple times and has given attitude, nasty looks, and bad service. She is also very unresponsive and doesn't look to help resolve issues, if anything she creates issues that shouldn't have happened. There is another worker who is very nice, and it's very unfortunate he has to work with such a negative person. If it weren't for him, would be giving this place a one star review instead of two. read more

Came here on a whim on a Saturday night around 8:30 PM. The place looked empty from the front but they have a super cute back room with tons of lights and tables. They're currently running a 2+1 for soju bottles which is a great deal!! Between two of us we ordered the stir fried pork and squid karaage as well as 3 soju bottles (just because of the deal). The pork was super flavorful and the squid came with an addicting dipping sauce. The food came out super fast, as well. You do have to order rice separately, though, which is always a bummer lol. Service was great and would definitely come back here for great pocha vibes. Way more affordable than spots in Manhattan! read more

I came to Pocha Pocha with 6 other friends for college reunion and had a very positive dining experience. I was able to make a reservation 3 hrs ahead and find a parking spot around 3 blocks away in the neighborhood near by. The restaurant owner was super hospitable and treated us free soda! I would definitely visit Pocha Pocha again in the future read more

I love the atmosphere, super nice for drinks and small bites food. All the portions are good enough for four or more ppl, they are very filling read more

Mid foods , good spot for drinks though. Food is wild pricey here ngl taco bravo across the street slaps though

The service and food were great! The place was cozy, very festive and welcoming. They are very friendly and approachable, however, I just noticed that the hostesses were very touchy to men. This is somehow inappropriate especially when you're dating the guy that they're touching too much. It may seem a friendly touch, but still not appropriate. read more

Army stew was amazing! The noodles were al dente, perfect amount of spicy, similar to a shin bowl ramen but much more complex flavors. Shared between 3 people. Their bonchon which was free was the cold radish soup, not a fan. The service was amazing and they spoke English. read more

Had a pre-bachelorette dinner here and we had an amazing time. We were able to book the patio in the back (all to ourselves) and ordered the food in advance. Overall, great food and service. If you're looking for a private space, this is a perfect spot. The owner/manager was very accommodating and didn't require a minimum spend either. Highly recommend! read more

Pocha Pocha - Patio - Korean Near Me - New York, New York

How does this place have 4+ rating? worst service we have ever had. one waiter serving entire place on Saturday night, once he takes your order that will be the first and last time you'll see him until it's time to pay the bill. Food was toooo salty and saucy very small portioned for the price. Luckily a lot of restaurants/bar/pub that opens late night in same area. We couldn't leave this place fast enough, 25% tip to that waiter was my good deed of the day read more
