Pocha has a fun, night life vibe, instagrammable environment! I love coming here when they have events and their club is open. But I equally love coming here just to eat. They have a variety of different fusion flavors that all tie to Korean cuisine. A must get is for sure their Booty Booldak; other than the fun name lol, it's served with crispy taters and cheese melted on top. I also tried their Kimchi Karbonara for the first time! It was good, but I wished there were more noodles, because we were left with a lot of bacon bits in the end. Our server, Sierra, was so sweet! She was welcoming and friendly, and we even had great conversations with her. She was also quick at serving us and getting what we needed. read more

Pocha House - Bulgogi Fries, Kimchi Karbonara, Fire Booty Booldak, soondubu - Bars Near Me - Sacramento, California

Imagine kbbq side dishes + neon lights + dance floor and a live DJ . The kimchi fried rice is soooo good that I've even ordered it for takeout o before. Staff is friendly and accommodating - providing extra siracha and kimchi with no hesitations. Never ended up staying until the dance party started but -- i can see how it could get very lit over there. Hope to come back and dance the night away after a couple of lychee martinis ((soooo good))! read more

Trina and Yasmine were the sweetest girls during my first visit to Pocha House. I'm here from out of town for work and they were both so attentive and kind.

Pocha House might just be my new go-to for Korean comfort food with personality. The vibe inside is warm and lively -- neon glow, great music. The Hot Cheetos Corn Cheese is pure genius -- creamy, cheesy, sweet corn underneath that crunchy, spicy Cheeto topping. It's rich, over-the-top in the best way, and completely addictive. Then there's the Spicy Pork Bulgogi -- tender slices of pork caramelized with that deep, smoky-sweet Korean spice. Perfectly balanced heat, bold flavor, and so satisfying with rice The staff were upbeat and welcoming -- quick service, great recommendations, and genuinely happy energy that matches the food. If you're craving a spot that blends comfort, spice, and just the right amount of fun, Pocha House is it. Every dish brings flavor and flair. read more

I like the vibe of the place. If it were a weekend, I can see how it could be super busy. We got the kimchi pancake, the lunch box, and rose pasta. Honestly, the food was pretty mid. Lacked flavor. The pasta was good but I wouldn't call it a Rose pasta, it tastes like a seafood boil pasta. The drinks were pretty good. We had a good time. read more

We went here after a concert- love that it was open late with comfort Asian food. There happened to be an event with a dj when we went so it was super loud haha but it was good vibes! Cute interior too~ We got a variety of things- army stew, shin ramen, fire booty booldak chicken, soy garlic kfc. All were pretty tasty. The army stew was served on a burner so we could cook it on the table. The kfc was such a good texture - I liked the banchan they served with it- radish, pickled jalapeños and a side salad Parking - street parking, watch the signs as there's a lot of 1 hour parking around. read more

This is a 3.5. We were looking for good Korean food and this spot came up. When we walked up, we had no idea it was a lounge. They guaranteed us that we could order food, so we went in anyway. First we're ordered the Korean wine flight. The servings on the flight were good but we found the drinks too sugary. We were looking forward to the food coming out. The pork bulgolgi was simple but had good flavor. The kimchi rice was also good. The pork belly on the salad was just alright, but we wouldn't order it again. Overall, our food and experience were fine. Not sure if we'd go back, but I'm not mad we went. The read more

Fun spot for Korean food and drinks. The vibe is lively, almost like a hangout place, and the food came out with a lot of flavor. Definitely more of a casual night out kind of restaurant. read more

The vibes of the place was super cute! I love the Korean letters hanging from the ceiling. The food was really good as well! If you want a really good appetizer and love kimchi, the kimchi pancakes were delicious. I ended up getting an order of them for togo as well. Our server, Crystal was super welcome and attentive. My girlfriend and I had a wonderful date here. read more

If you need late night food, this place is an option. Dud not expect to be patted down and gave my purse checked and didn't know this place turned into a night club. It got busy at around 11:00 when we were done eating. Be prepared they will not allow you to bring in a water bottle from the outside and must dump all the fluid content in the water bottle. read more

I've always wanted to come here because my husband and I heard great things especially about the party life at night. We were in the area looking at Yelp bookmark and Pocha House came up. When we went around 5:30 PM, it was not busy at all. It is so cool inside! Between the lights and the black furniture and all of the art, you just can't go wrong. The train even went by which means they offered four dollar shots and of course we had to take one. We love this entire experience. Our server was extremely nice, helpful and kind. I learned about the various drinks they offer. She also had good recommendations for food. The cheese corn was out of this world and having it made in front of you was quite the experience. I will definitely be back because I didn't experience a night life yet. There's so many other things. I'd like to try on the menu. read more

I came here with a friend for Saturday late night food and we had around a 20 minute wait, so we just waited in the car. There's a lot of residential street parking nearby, so we just ended up chilling and waiting until they gave us a phone call. Fortunately we did not need to wait inside the store, since it was quite packed and the music was really loud. We actually didn't realize it was more of a drinks and dancing type place until it got later in the night and people started filling up the restaurant to dance. The menu is a little overwhelming, but we ordered the kimchi fried rice, the pocha shin ramen, and the bulgogi fries. The food took a little while to come out, but when it did it was piping hot and ready to eat! I enjoyed our food immensely. Service is a little haphazard since it became difficult to flag down our server to get our check later in the night but I understand, it is an overstimulating place to work. Overall I would come back here again if I was in Sac to try some more of their options (e.g KFC and sides like corn cheese)! read more

The place looks cool. I was a little disoriented by the American hip hop exclusive playlist. The food was alright. A lot of it is Korean western fusion. I do like the corn cheese from here. Everything else was just kind of okay. Service was friendly and pretty quick as well. Unfortunately there's just other food that's better.

We went on Wednesday night and it wasn't busy at all. We also had a very big party. The place is nice and spacious with a separate bar towards the back. The bathroom is such a vibe and perfect for pictures. We ordered a bunch of food (Honorable Mentions: Rose Pasta and Bulgogi Fries). The Rose pasta was seriously delicious with the perfect amount of sauce and shrimp. My friends did say it was slightly too much of a tomato flavor, but I thought it was perfect. The Bulgogi fries were very crispy and had a fair amount of toppings. We ordered a bunch of drinks like the yogurt sojus which were so yummy. It is a very light drink because of the yogurt, so it is perfect for lightweights. read more

I came early on a Friday evening with little to no people there! The staff were finishing their cleaning, but we're really glad to help us. We ordered the makgeolli (rice wine) along with some food. The bulgogi fries & the soy garlic fried chicken were both solid options. They also have a DJ around 10 pm on the weekends if you're in for a more louder dinner experience. I definitely would come back here read more

Pocha House - Bars Near Me - Sacramento, California

Love the vibes at Pocha House! Pocha House offers Korean street food classics in a vibrant, high energy space. I've been to ticketed events at Pocha House like R&B night, and I recently stopped by with friends for drinks and a bite. This is definitely a spot you won't want to miss on a night out on the town, and their food is globally inspired and sure to satisfy. My group of four started at the bar with a round of shooters, and we were seated at a booth in less than 20 mins, despite being a walk-in on a Saturday night. Service was quick, and we were offered the option of dining with chopsticks or a fork. To start, I ordered a Lychee Martini, and it was served with fresh fruit on the rim! The drink was sweet and strong without feeling overpowering. For dinner, I ordered the bulgogi. It came out on a sizzling plate, and it was perfect to share. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu, especially their Spicy KFC! Pocha House is a fun edition to the Midtown foodie and night life scene. Be sure to stay for the DJ! read more

I ordered pickup before a show at the nearby Channel 24 and the spicy bulgogi was super yummy! Prices are a little steep but in my opinion, the amount of food you get is worth the price. The spicy bulgogi came with kimchi and an ample helping of rice. My friend got the hot cheeto cheese corn and she liked it, although a little spicy for her taste, so I finished it. The restaurant had a really nice vibe and decor throughout, which extended to the bar at the back of the restaurant and restrooms. The process of picking up the food was prompt and the staff were super nice and let my friend use the restrooms too. I hope I can bring my family here when we're in town next time! read more

We came in on a Friday around 7:15pm. A very modern space. We were seated right away. Our server was friendly and helped us make our choices. We ordered the flight to Seoul (soju flight), doshirak and soy garlic KFC with an extra side of kimchi. The flight-delicious if you like soju. The doshirak was great too. A lunchbox size meal with rice, spam, fried egg, kimchi with seaweed and spicy sauce. The KFC wings (large) with soy garlic were crispy with a nice sauce. It came with pickled radish, jalepino with soy sauce (?) and a small coleslaw with dressing. We asked for a small taste of the spicy sauce in the side (we were told it would be super spicy but it was just the right amount of heat and tasted delicious. Definitely too spicy for some-not Thai spicy). The kimchi is house made and definitely delicious (not too spicy) Super accommodating - when an uninvited friend (fly) joined our extra sauce, they quickly replaced it for us. Five stars for food and drink four stars for ambiance. They play music (a little too rough for me) personally would prefer to hear k-pop : ). tvs are playing movies with no volume. Also only street parking but not too bad. read more

My friends and I had an outstanding experience at Pocha House. Admittedly, we had apprehensions because it looks more like a nightclub than a Korean restaurant. Ironically, I loved the food and didn't care for my cocktail! Our waitress was great from start to finish. We had Soju, Korean Spicy Fried Tofu, Beef Bulgogi, Stir Fried Rice Cakes, Kimchee Fried Rice with Spam. What was great is that we had a few dishes set aside the meat proteins so that our vegetarian friend was able to enjoy the dishes the rest of us were enjoying. Every dish was balanced and flavorful. I wouldn't hesitate to visit Pocha House again. read more

I've been back to Pocha House a few times now and it's a vibe. From the neon lights and great music to the attention to detail, even in spots like the bathroom. I have heard the nightlife is great here, but I prefer the slower hours where I can enjoy a meal or a spot at the bar. I've also ordered takeout when I'm craving Korean food and the experience has always been great. A lot of the food offerings are sharable and meant to be enjoyed along with great friends and drinks. Their soups are delicious and one of the menu items that you'll want to order as a dine in experience. Some of my other favorite items are the tteokbokki, wings and bulgogi, but there's a lot of variety on the menu and a little something for everyone. The portions are generous and everything is so flavorful. I like to sit at the bar when I'm not getting takeout and the staff is always really nice. The music is also great here and if you're into it they have DJs come in and events that you can check out. They're open late and food is available late too! read more

I love this spot--been here a few times now but this past time we came in on a Monday night, around 6, and were the only ones in there for at least 40 minutes. It was after thanksgiving week so that could've factored into why. Vibe here is immaculate and I know the late night scene is a fun one, but they truly do have some good food!!! The wings are my favorite, a little crunchy, sweet and spicy, well-cooked. I adore the pickled daikon radish on the side and a nice lil cabbage salad. HIGHLY recommend :) Our waitress was sweet & attentive & everyone who works here seems to be in a good mood and really helpful! A really good Korean-American option around the corner from the cute streets in the Ice Blocks. read more

Pocha House - Chicken wings + cheese corn - Bars Near Me - Sacramento, California

Have been getting into Korean food lately, so wanted to check out Pocha House! Finding parking took so long :( They do not have a designated parking lot and the building is located next to a railroad, so it's all street parking The restaurant decor is really on theme and has a nice vibe for a night out with friends. For food, we ordered: 1. Tteokbokki - rice cakes were perfectly chewy and the sauce was not too spicy with the perfect amount of savory-ness. 2. Bulgogi Fries - super crispy fries topped with flavorful bulgogi and drenched in a creamy sauce and lots of cheese! Really hit the spot and I could not get enough of it! I also dipped the fries in the tteokbokki sauce, and that was really good too. Overall, we ordered the perfect combo of comfort food, and I definitely want to come back sometime to try their drinks! read more

With our first choice for dinner unexpectedly being closed for vacation and a long line ahead of us at our second, you could say we were in a bit of a scramble to figure out where to go next. Do we go to some place tried and true or stick with our original plan of trying something new? After seeing Pocha House in our Yelp search results, though, it sure didn't take us long to try our luck here! Really, as total fanatics of Korean food, how could we ever say no to the prospect of Korean fried chicken?? Walking into Pocha House, there were two things that immediately struck me - that we didn't have to wait for a table (woohoo!) and that the vibe here is super lively. Not in the loud, rowdy sort of way, but that there was a lot of activity going on - a couple of birthday parties, group outings, some date nights, and possibly even a first date next to us. After taking a look at the menu, it was easy to see why folks come here for all sorts of occasions - their Korean pub-style menu has a little of everything for everyone. From their apps, bar bites, and noodles to soups, stews, BBQ meats, and vegetarian plates, there were more dishes that caught our eye than we could hope to finish! -- BULGOGI FRIES - French Fries Topped with Bulgogi, Kimchi, Garlic Mayo, Kimchi Mayo, Green Onion, and Sesame Seeds...$15 This was so good! The fries were fried to the perfect crispiness and had a lot of toppings. In particular, I liked that they didn't skimp on the bulgogi (though, I'll always take more) and how it well all of the flavors married together. Delish! -- SOY GARLIC KFC - Korean Fried Chicken Wings Tossed in Soy Garlic Sauce Topped with Green Onion & Sesame Seeds Served with Cabbage Salad and Pickled Radish and Jalapenos...$19 The portion felt a little light for the money, but this tasted great. The batter was crunchy and not super thick while the chicken itself was both moist and piping hot. If anything, the soy garlic sauce was a bit on the sweet side, but it really wasn't that bad. While there's nothing about our meal at Pocha House that I regret, I do wish we had come here under different circumstances. Namely, with more people and/or when we were looking for something heftier to eat so that we could've tried more of the menu. Given how we only got two dishes to go with our drinks, this does feel a little incomplete. Though, admittedly, this probably has more to do with my FOMO for the things that we didn't get to check out, like their Budae Jjigae and Fire Booty Booldak! I may not know as to when I'll be able to make my way back to Pocha House, but you can be damn sure I know exactly what I'll be ordering when I do! Plus, I love how they're open late! read more

Ive been to pocha numerous times but last night was amazing. I came with some friends I met at tiger. Jordyn was our server. The halloween decorations were so cute. The food came out so fast despite it being 11:20pm and midnight being when the kitchen closes. My friends even got flights and they were definitely inebriated so it got the job done. Their pricing is quite good in my opinion. Food is amazing. Vibes are good. Music is good. Other than Yd Tofu House. I really enjoy pocha as my go to Korean restaurant. read more

Ambiance was great, they played all the current hip-hop and R&B jams. Was def vibing singing along on very warm early summer evening. It's an interesting decor with a dark base of smoke gray/black but with pops of color from what looked like fluorescent lighting? But it was daylight so I don't know for sure. Service was great, Justine and Kim (on the first visit) Ang and Em (on the second visit) were very kind, hospitable, and super cool. Granted it seemed like I got there before a dinner rush both times, I think there was only two parties there at the time each time. They said there's a DJ Friday nights at 10, but not clubby haha. Onto the food (which was ordered to go), the spicy pork bulgogi came with kimchi and rice. Not spicy either, which always scares me at first with Korean spices haha. But thankfully this one wasn't over the top. I did hear the spicy KFC is spicy though, in case you're thinking of ordering it. The dish was definitely tasty, you know it's good when you're lightweight sad it's all been eaten. When you put all elements of what a good eatery should be, this place hit all the checkmarks. Would definitely come back and dine in for future dinners in Sac Midtown. read more

Pocha House came to the rescue when all other restaurants were closed after a concert at Ace Of Spades (they close at 2AM!) Environment was pretty, not too crowded on a Wednesday night Service was quick, seated ourselves down as a party of 4 Menus pretty simple, advertised as a Korean Bar with food on one side and drinks on the other side of the menu Our party ordered Soy Garlic KFC (8.7/10) Very crispy, clearly double fried as they should be, seasoned through, cooked perfectly. They got the sauce down too, you can taste the ingredients (it's not too sweet as places usually are). Big contender for best bite of the night Bulgogi Fries 9.2/10 Honestly, we only ordered these because we saw a review raving about it. Normally don't order French fries at restaurants just because we're skeptical. These did not disappoint. Fries came super crunchy and still had a nice bite in the middle. Seasoned well, the kimchi topping was better than the side Kimchi order. The Bulgogi was some of the best I've had. Seasoned well, cooked nicely. Sauce on the Fries was really good, couldn't tell what it was. Soondubu (Spicy Tofu Soup) 8.5/10 Pretty standard, would order again, spice level was tolerable and similar to what we get at other places. Seasoned nicely. Not pictured (Tteobokki) (Spicy Rice Cakes) 8.5/10 Pretty standard. Would order again, the serving dish is a little shallow and messy but it was pretty. Rice cakes were cooked nicely, fish cake was a nice addition. The egg was nice too. Seasoned well, not too salty like a lot of other places are. Pocha House was a great choice, would definitely come back (and try their alcohol) it was late and we had over an hour commute back. Thank you for the hospitality read more

Came here for an event last month and couldn't wait to return. My peeps and I had a little bit of everything and were so full after. I started with a pineapple cider and boy was it tasty. While I enjoyed my cider I probably would have been better off with sharing two soju bottles with the tables. Once my party arrived per the suggestion of the server we ordered a lychee soju for the table and whew it creeps up on ya! For the appetizer we ordered the bulgogi fries which gave us some of everything and yooooo it was so good!!! From the kimchi to the bulgogi the mix of flavors were chefs kiss. As a non beef eater I did taste the bulgogi and it was so good . A little sweetness to the meat and well seasoned. Had to stop myself from eating more but wanted to at least see what the hype was as I didn't taste it the previous visit. For the entrees two of us had. Soy KFC and the other had the tteokbokki with added fried seaweed rolls. While they don't have happy hour which is of course a bummer for 3 entrees, 1 appetizer, 2 drinks, and a bottle of soju all for $118 that's pretty darn good in my book!!! I'm so mad at myself I didn't get our servers name as she did a phenomenal job and was legit the only person handling the entire front. Also shoutout to the bartender for stepping in a helping her as well when the place started to get packed with people. I can't recommend this place enough! I can't wait to return to try the spicy pork bulgogi and fire botty booldak.

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Trina, and she made our night so special! We mentioned to her that we had just gotten married earlier this month and that this was our first date out as newlyweds. To our surprise, she went above and beyond by paying for one of our drinks as a sweet congratulations gesture. Not only was she incredibly kind and attentive--always checking in, keeping our waters full, and making sure we had everything we needed--but our food and drinks also came out quickly and perfectly. Trina made sure the whole experience felt seamless and enjoyable. Servers like her truly make a difference. We left not only full but also grateful for the thoughtful way she helped us celebrate such a meaningful time in our lives.

I crave this place! Such a cool vibe, plenty of space, good music, great staff, and great food. We came on a slow night when there weren't any events happening so it was a chill spot to wind down and eat some late night cravings. Tteokbokki: I ordered this with ramen and cheese, and it was all the worth it! I love spicy food but my bf doesn't, so I was a bit surprised when it fit both our liking. It was honestly the perfect spice where u just want to keep eating more. The rice cakes were perfect and the cheese literally melted in the dish. 100/10 crave this everytime now. Hot Cheeto corn cheese: a MUST. Idk what it was but it hit the spot and to our shock, the hot Cheetos fit absolutely well for this dish. I thought it would taste like a street corn, but it had a much different flavor to it. We all loved it. Lychee martini: it was a bit strong but a good option if u like lychee like me. Soju flights: we arrived as a table of 4 and there was 4 sojus in the flight so it was perfect for us to try out and take some shots lol. Great experience and hope to attend one of their events late night soon! read more
