    Drink Menu (December 2021)

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    Their food is okay but the server is not friendly. If you really like friendly with delicious food, don't recommend!

    Great service! When you walk in, it feels like you want to immediately be part of a k-drama.. drinking late night beer and eating great food with your crush or your good ol' buddies. The staff kept checking on our table and mentioned they are new restaurant. Good portion of food for the price. It's so nice to have people who care about their customers in NYC!

    Patio

    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!

    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.

    Can be easy to miss if youre not looking for it (especially in my case as they have scaffolding…read moreoutside right now). It has a very chic atmosphere when you first walk in. Sat at a high top by the bar and had a fairly light dinner. The Beef Tartare comes out with a cracked quail egg for you to pour into the meat yourself and the beef sat on top of sone sliced pear. It's a small appetizer but it tasted fresh and clean, the crispness of the pear matches well with the heaviness of the beef. The cured shrimp was delicious, I'm sad there was only 3 because I wanted 5 servings of it. The uni, roe, and soy shrimp practically melted in your mouth. The Uni Bimbimbap has rave reviews and I can see why. It was filling without being overly heavy and each bite had uni in it after mixing it up. If you're unsure about uni, this is definitely a great way to introduce yourself to it's flavor palette.

    Vibes of the place are nice!! Food is standard Korean food, nothing extraordinary. Had a lot of…read moredrink options - Soy & garlic wings: 10/10, flavor is great, and wings were juicy - Sweet potato fries: 8/10, gigantic thick fries. Good but I prefer my fries thinner. Sauce was meh - Seafood rose tteokbokki: 8/10, super creamy, but wish there was more rice cake. Lots of seafood!! Bb.q Chicken's rose tteokbokki is better imo - Pork shank: 9/10, really tender and juicy meat that fell off the bone. Hella pricey tho (-1 point) - Kimchi fried rice w/ prime hanger steak: 6/10, just okay. Not a huge fan of the fried rice, the steak was good, medium rare - Espresso martini: 8/10, really strong lol

    Five senses has been around forever and is still a solid staple in k-town! Stopped by on a Friday…read moreevening around 8 and there was no line for two so we were seated quickly. They have a variety of the standard fare Korean options at reasonable prices. We tried the ddukbokki and bulgolgi dupbap which were both good. The portion sizes were on the bigger size and the ddukbokki were giant. I do wish the ddukbokki was a little less watery but overall tasted fine. The bulgolgi was pretty standard for what I'd expect. Overall a solid option in the area if you don't want to wait for a long queue outside of the other popular spots.

Seafood Pancake: Great pick. Crispy on the outside and packed with seafood inside. Beef Belly & Mala Cream Noodle Soup: Loved this one. Udon with tender beef and baby octopus... so good!!! Spicy Braised Pork Rib Stew: Rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The highlight for me was the raw marinated crab. I spotted it on the wall menu and immediately had to order it. It's rare to find in the city! And honestly, this was way better than BCD's. So flavorful. Only complaint... the banchan portions are small and not a lot of variety. Other than that, I really enjoyed my meal and I'd definitely recommend this spot.

The restaurant itself is huge, with two stories, yet it still has a lively and comfortable atmosphere. The menu is extensive, with plenty of traditional Korean dishes, and the lunch specials offer especially good value for the quality and portions. Everything we ordered was delicious, but the galbi-jjim (갈비찜) and tteokbokki (떡볶이) were the standouts. The galbi-jjim was rich, tender, and deeply flavorful, while the tteokbokki had that satisfying, authentic Korean flavor I look for. Service was excellent--attentive, efficient, and friendly even with such a large restaurant. Great food, great atmosphere, reasonable lunch options, and a huge selection. Definitely one of my favorite Korean restaurants in NYC and a place I would happily return to.

It's extremely crispy and very high quality. A large issue I had at this establishment was the service. The server felt unfriendly, and whenever we tried to flag him down, he wouldn't even look at us. It took around 20 minutes after our meal to get our check which was ridiculous. It was a shame because this was easily one of my favorite meals in NYC, but I don't know if I would return solely due to the service.
