I recently had the chance to visit Asado Pocha during lunch and decided to try their Chimichurri Steak. The restaurant has a modern and cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. The football-themed décor adds a unique touch, and I can only imagine how lively it must have been during the FIFA World Cup. It's a shame I missed that experience! As for the food, it was excellent. The portion was incredibly generous and definitely worth the price. The steak was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly. As a beef lover, I really enjoyed every bite. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back again. Next time, I'll bring my babe here because I think he would really enjoy both the atmosphere and the food. read more

This was my second time visiting, although it's been a long time since my first visit. I'm happy to say the food is just as good as I remembered. My favorite was the picanha. It was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and served in thick, juicy slices. If you order the set for two, it also comes with cheesy baked rice, potato salad, beet salad, and chips, which made the meal feel complete. I also loved the three different sauces, and I thought it was a nice touch that they served kimchi on the side to help balance the richness of the meat. The whole meal felt surprisingly fresh and well-balanced. - Also have variety of tab beers ! (Coors , asahi , modelo etc) The owner was very kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I definitely recommend giving this place a try! Free parking but limit space read more

Asado Pocha - Cheese ball - Latin American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Perfect for a weekend lunch! Even though it was the weekend, they still offered their lunch special, which made it a great value. We tried both the chimichurri and asado, and both were delicious. The asado was more tender, while the chimichurri had a chewier texture with a richer beef flavor. The lunch special portion was just the right size for one person and very reasonably priced. The cheese balls were also a standout and definitely worth ordering. Another plus is the dedicated parking lot and the ability to watch soccer games while dining. The only downside is that there aren't many tables, so seating can be limited during busy times. Overall, a tasty and affordable spot that I'd happily visit again! read more

Seats are limited, but my family often gets takeout from here and we always enjoy it. The asado is delicious and full of flavor. There have been a few times when the portion of meat was a bit inconsistent or the asado wasn't at its best, but most of the time we've had great meals. We've also dined in before, and the food was excellent. The owner was very friendly and welcoming.This is a local gem, and I hope this place stays around for a long time! read more

Every time I walked by this place I thought oh I have to try that and I'm so mad it took me so long to go. The food is incredible and such a good deal for what you get. We did one of the BBQ combos which comes with beet salad, potato salad, cheesy rice, cheese balls, ceviche and chips, yucca, kimchi, and then there's a ton of veggies and sausage that come with whatever meat you order. Oh and beer or soju come with! Literally what more could you ask for? Sitting outside is such a nice atmosphere and the staff is great. I'm surprised this place isn't packed 24/7 but I'm glad because that means there will be a table open for me. read more

Asado Pocha - Two meat combo - Latin American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Asado Pocha is one of those places that completely surprises you--in the best way. First off, this is not your typical pocha. For context, a pocha in Korean is basically a casual bar, usually serving comfort food and drinks. But this spot flips the script in such a unique way--it's a Korean bar serving Latin American food, specifically asados (grilled meats). And somehow, it just works. The grilled meats are solid, but what you absolutely cannot skip are the cheese breads. They're ridiculously good--warm, soft, and addictive. If you're coming with someone, just get a regular combo and call it a day. You really can't go wrong. The space itself is definitely a hole-in-the-wall, but that's part of the charm. It's not polished or refined--instead, it feels homey, like you're just hanging out at a friend's spot. The owner adds so much personality to the place. He's a friendly Korean guy who speaks Spanish and clearly loves sports--especially football and baseball. The walls are covered in sports memorabilia, and honestly, this might be one of the best low-key spots to catch a baseball game. And let's be real--free parking in Koreatown? That alone is a win. They've got parking in the back, which makes coming here so much easier. Overall, if you're looking for something different, cozy, and full of character, this place is it. It's not about being fancy--it's about good food, good vibes, and a genuinely unique experience. read more

Omg omg omg ... the asado ... that's the only thing I can say. It was soooo good. We were looking forward to trying this place and it was worth the wait. The star here is the asado of course. They grill it nicely along with onions and kimchee and it pairs beautifully. I would also recommend the ham and cheese empanada. read more

A solid asado place! The place only has a couple of tables inside but it looks cozy and it's got TVs so I think you can catch live games here while dining. I got their lunch special for to-go and everything was great. The meat was juicy and the rice was surprisingly tasty! Good portions too. Got to chat with the owner a little bit and I could tell he was serious about serving good meats and making the place enjoyable for his customers. Definitely check this place out if you want reasonably priced and tasty meat. read more

Tried this place for the first time today and really liked it. We were going to get the asado, but one of the staff recommended the pichana and it was a great choice. Super juicy, flavorful, and portion was perfect for two. There was a variety sauces which all paired really well with the meat, and all the sides were really good too. Service was great, everyone working there was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Parking was easy, plenty of spots in the lot in the building (a big plus in Ktown). Definitely coming back to try the asado and empanadas! read more

Food is always fresh, quick, and absolutely delicious. The service and ambience are top-notch -- you can feel the care and personality in every detail. What started as a little hole-in-the-wall gem in Koreatown has quickly become one of my favorite places to eat. The more I come here, the more it feels like home. The food is consistently amazing, the vibes are effortlessly chill, and the energy is just right -- whether you're coming with co-workers after a long day, on a casual date night, or even dining solo like a rock star. I recently came with a big group of my best friends for a reunion, and it couldn't have been a better choice. The atmosphere, the music, the laughter, and of course the incredible food made it one of those nights we'll all remember. Good food, good music, good company -- what more could you want? This spot never misses. Huge thanks to 사장님 for keeping the rock-and-roll spirit (and the grill) alive! read more

BEST ASADO EVERRRRR - must try in LA ktown. The meat is flavorful and the decor is great. It's heavy metal themed with some soccer jersey's too. A great vibe, with great food!! A must visit and must try when in LA :) read more

Juicy, Tender, Perfectly slow cooked meats with simple seasoning, yet so flavorful. I top my meat with their buttery homemade mashed potato salad, fresh tangy salsa, a piece of grilled garlic, dress it with their special sauce... Maluco Beleza! Don't forget to take a bite of their Grilled Jalapeño! It adds a nice kick to the flavor. They had a new menu that day, which was grilled scallops and shrimps in a special creamy corn sauce on a shell. I felt like a mermaid eating this. Paired so well with their white wine. Chill vibe to Game Time Fun Time with great service and food. Definitely a weekly go to. read more

this place was awesome!! the owner, robert, was so welcoming and personable! the ambiance felt just like coming to a friends house and yapping over dinner! the cheese balls are SO good, not too heavy but perfectly cheesy. the asado plate is so worth and sharable! my wife and i tore it up 10/10. i think my favorite part was having every bite feel different. the meat was tender, juicy, and paired with the stir fried kimchi, garlic, onions, and even SAUSAGE, it was...... *chef's kiss* not to mention the sauces!! i was starving when we got here and the chips and 3 different kinds of salsa (red, green, and chimichurri) warmed up my palate to the mixture of korean and latin cuisine. p.s. in case you didn't know, robert was the best part of this meal through and through. support local businesses! read more
