    KFC with stir fried noodles
    Kay H.

    Pros: clean and lovely environment Cons: price and taste We were SO excited to try K-Pocha -we really enjoy Korean street food. But our experience wasn't a great one as we couldn't finish the food. We ordered the Korean fried chicken bowl with stir fried noodles ($11.50) and a piece of cream cheese garlic bread ($6). We split a meal because neither of us were hungry and just wanted a snack-of-sorts. The cream cheese garlic bread was.... I can't even describe. I am literally a goat and will eat everything. Even if I don't like something, I will eat it bc I hate throwing away food/money. I couldn't. I'm familiar with a dash of sweet in Korean savory dishes. But it was.... It was so nasty I feel like there was something wrong with it. The outside looked like a garlic roll with lots of buttery and savory herbs, but the inside tasted like it was filled with a bad poppyseed cake icing. There was something really awful and "off" about it. For the KFC bowl, we told the register gal we didn't really want anything spicy (I'm a spice wimp) and she noted it should be fine. I will say, the chicken pieces were VERY crisp, juicy, and tender -but it was so spicy I couldn't eat it. My hubs enjoys spicy -but this dish pushed his tolerance and he couldn't finish. I was really sad to trash the food -this has only happened one other time during my eating out experiences. Trashing food is something I do NOT do lightly! On top of all that -$18 and some change for a bowl and a roll is a smidge steep. Maybe it just wasn't the place for us. Le sigh.

    I'm such a sucker for a hot dog and love Korean corn dogs. This spot was definitely worth the drive (less than 20 min from the downtown GR area - I went at rush hour so it was a bit more congested). The place is small and the strip mall has a lot of parking, yet it was difficult to find a spot. Maybe because it was raining and everyone was out to dinner that night. My friend and I arrived and luckily it was not crazy busy yet, but we definitely got there right before the rush! We were promptly greeted by the friendly staff and they took our order. We shared combo A and B and ordered a tater-nado. The corn dogs were the ramen and potato, half beef and cheese. Both were quite delicious but I do wish there was a place that spiraled the cheese and hotdog together to get both in one bite!! The potato was a little too doughy for me though, so I'd probably skip that one next time. But really enjoyed the ramen. The wings were flavorful and I wouldn't hesitate to come back! My only complaint is honestly that it's a bit small and the layout made it feel quite cramped. I sat next to the trash can and because of the amount of people inside, I felt like people were hovering over me a lot. I can't imagine that's an every time problem, so I'm less worried, but it was a bit much for a wet and rainy day. All in all, definitely go and enjoy this spot!! K-dogs and street food are my favorite so I'm very happy this place exists.

    Inside a strip mall

    Korean Street Food served here. Located inside a strip mall near Metro Hospital. Inside is a bar top area for eating and about 5 tables. You go up to the counter to order and pay. They give you a buzzer and you pick up at another counter when it buzzes. I ordered their A Combo ($18). This includes a Korean Corndog and Korean Fried Chicken Wings. The dog comes in 5 varieties (Standard, Ramen, Potato, Hot Cheeto, and Dragon Breath), I got Standard. Inside you can choose: All beef, all chicken, half beef and half mozzarella, half chicken and half mozzarella, or all mozzarella. I got all beef one. For the Wings you can choose: Classic, Spicy, or Garlic Soy. I chose Garlic Soy. Everything was excellent.  This was by far the best Corndog I've had. The Wings were excellent. Not quite as good as Firefox, however a perfectly solid number 2.  They have other options and numerous Korean drinks to choose from. As well as macaroons. Plus they have corndog variety specials and other specials. They have only been open a few weeks and are already massively busy. They're long lines and the food takes time to cook. So be prepared to wait. The staff is friendly and seem to be learning the ropes quickly. Overall an easy 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely. An awesome new restaurant for the area.

    A bit underwhelming but worth a revisit. Honestly I was a bit underwhelmed with the experience and food here. I did go during the soft opening, so I'll give them credit for doing their best with managing everything. I waited for over 40 minutes for my order and it wasn't hot. Unfortunately I did not get the infamous cheese pull in my Korean corn dog because of this. Flavors were decent and did make me think of the amazing street food I enjoyed in an Asian night market. So that's good! I also did enjoy the flavor of the spicy mayo. My boba was underwhelming, especially for the price. The tapioca did not seemed fully cooked. Might go for a different drink next time. The ambiance of the restaurant was cute. I liked the vibe and loved the music choices. The servers were very nice but I could tell they were a bit overwhelmed. In my visit there, the tables did not get cleaned once. Again, I know this was the soft opening so I'd definitely give them another chance maybe when they're not as busy.

    We were so excited when we heard there was a new Korean street food place coming to town! The service is always excellent and the food is the perfect balance of being flavorful without being too greasy. The potato and mozzarella corn dog is definitely our go to and be sure to finish off the meal with a refreshing Bingsu! This spot is easily one of our top Korean places in Grand Rapids.

    Def get the kalguksu and matcha layer cake. Phenomenal. Do half and half for the corn dogs as well. Best corn dog of my life!

    Who would have thought we'd have Korean Street food right down the road in Wyoming? I was so excited to try this and after having gone twice, I still have plenty of things to try. Have been very happy with all of my choices and everything is tasty and unique- a very fun place to go with a foodie/ adventurous eater. I enjoy the half and half dogs, with half Mozzarella cheese and half beef or chicken hot dog. You can get a variety of coatings, I like the Ramen with the yummy mustard sauce (I'd buy that sauce in a bottle!!) The taternado is fun and crispy if a little hard to eat, but you're getting that for novelty, let's be real. My husband has gotten the tteoboki both times and loved it, said its something he'd love to have when he's sick too! I also have tried the kim chi rice ball and the cheese corn- straight forward and yummy. Staff is nice and willing to help and explain. Our first visit was on a Saturday at lunch and they were slammed! Happy to see their success and the wait was reasonable. They do offer online ordering too. My recent visit on a Friday evening was a bit earlier than a dinner rush but it picked up after we got our food. So be patient, it'll be worth it. Or order ahead! I am excited to come back soon and try the bingsu. Very happy to have a unique option right here in the suburbs.

    I went there recently for the first time on a Wednesday night. They don't delivery or take orders over the phone so you have to go there and order to go or stay there. When i went inside all the tables were taken and people were waiting. I placed my order and waited for about 20-25 minutes for my food. It was a bit longer than usual but since it's a new restaurant I would expect the service to be slow but I hope it gets faster over time or I can place an order over the phone. I ordered the potato corn dog with half mozzarella and half chicken combo with spicy tteok bokki and mango binsu. The potato corn dog was really good! It was crispy and flavorful. I loved the sauce on top, I would recommend getting some extra to dip it in. Just be warned it is very big and filling. The tteok bokki however was a bit disappointing. It was not spicy at all and more on the sweet side especially considering it is Korean I would've definitely expected more spice. The binsu however was amazing!! I loved it and would highly recommend it. I do plan to go back and try some chicken wings or a different corndog. I would definitely recommend this spot.

    DATE & TIME OF VISIT: September 9, 2023 @ 3:50pm. They were busy (the place is SMALL so good luck finding an available table). AMBIANCE: Basic, nothing to write home about. CLEANLINESS: Tables were dirty, floor was dirty. SERVICE / SERVER: front counter person was friendly. The person we picked up our order from not so much. FOOD: This is what we ordered.... The Signature Corn Dog (beef) - flavor was alright, breading was heavy, overall this was an alright corn dog. $5.95 Dragon Breath (half chicken half cheese) - we all hated this one. There was nothing about it that we liked. Even if we would have ordered it in beef I don't think it would have changed our opinion. $6.95 Potato Corn Dog (cheese) - it was ok, think it would have been better as a beef. $6.25 Tater-nado - this had good flavor, crunch and we all liked it. $4.95 OVERALL THOUGHTS: Overpriced for what you get. Not much we liked here and not impressed with the lack of cleanliness of the facilities. WOULD I RECOMMEND OR RETURN? No I would not recommend or return. Just not our taste.

    K-Pocha was our chosen restaurant for a quick dinner on Saturday evening. If you're not a fan of full on spices or texture - this wouldn't be a good place to choose. It wasn't as busy as we assumed - based off the reviews and their grand opening. The line went by quick, stood in line for at least 5 minutes before we placed our order. The cashier didn't seem stressed or overwhelmed, she took her time with us which made the experience better especially with their exciting menu. After placing our order, we received our buzzer - after waiting about 10 minutes or so, it went off and we got to pick up our food three Korean dogs, our side of Tteokbokki, and our two boba teas! Our Korean corn dog was very breaded - cheese was so CHEESY to the point where you had to literally break it with your fingers or wrap it around your corn dog . The taste was sweet with some spice! Tteokbokki was delicious with a taste of homemade sauce - at one point, it felt like it was too saucy and as if they used a sauce from a jar. We chose the spicy (6/10) option, it wasn't sweet or overpowering, it was enough sauce for your rice cakes, enough side portion to go along with your corn dog! The food was hot, our teas were cold - it was an amazing experience even though they don't have much space for seating - it was definitely worth it. The vibe itself was great, music playing in the background, everyone chatting around you. This is more of a "quick lunch hangout" vibe vs an actual sit down place. There isn't much privacy since seating is limited and it's pretty small. However, that didn't stop customers coming in. We were there for almost an hour and customers just kept walking in. It was amazing and I'm excited for this place to explode more than it already has. 10/10 recommend for a quick bite and amazing food.

    Sweet Pocheeto
    Hillary S.

    Loved everything we tried here! The pocheeto corn dog was fantastic, soooooo cheesy and such an interesting combo of flavors. We had an appetizer with rice and sausages on a stick that was very good, and also a dessert with melty cheese in it. Took black bean noodles to go for later, which were also fantastic. The service was great. Made good recommendations on what to try. It is small inside and was pretty busy, but there was a decent amount of seating.

    Mango and strawberry bingsu
    Sandy T.

    Only tried the bingsu here. It was made with vanilla ice cream, choice of fruit, and mochi pieces. Everything tasted as you can expect, the one thing I wished was done differently was more shaved ice instead of ice cream.

    I'm deeply disappointed by my experience at this bakery. I came in at 1:50 PM to pick up a cake…read morethat had been ordered ahead of time. I was kind, spoke Spanish, and tried to be as clear as possible about what I was there for. At first, the staff couldn't find the order under the name I was given, which is understandable. What's not acceptable was the attitude I received: eye rolls, scoffing, chuckling, and dismissive behavior that felt targeted and completely uncalled for. After confirming the correct name with my mom and giving it to them, they said they recognized the order and brought the cake out. But instead of completing the pickup, they left the cake sitting out and helped several other customers who came in after me, including three who also picked up cakes. They even decorated a cake in front of me while I continued to wait. No one communicated with me. I was repeatedly asked for the name on the order, even after giving the correct name multiple times. By the time I finally got the cake at 2:20 PM, it had been sitting out so long that decorations were sliding off in the heat. The box wasn't enclosed properly either, and it felt like they just didn't care. What made this especially disappointing is that it was my first time at this bakery, and I was picking up the cake for someone who has been ordering from them for years without ever having a problem. The fact that I had such a negative experience on my very first visit makes it feel personal. As an Afro-Latina, I can't ignore how racially charged the behavior felt. I came in kind, calm, and speaking the same language, but was treated with blatant disrespect. I expected better from a community-based business. I would not recommend this bakery and will not be returning.
