Walking in, I really enjoyed the nice, dim drinking atmosphere. It's a great place for a late night get together with friends if you're really interested in trying Korean dishes or interesting dishes like the Live Octopus and Live Octopus + Beef Tartare I ordered. Both items were very interesting and fresh. The portion of the Beef Tartare and Octopus was pretty big. It was extremely surprising. I came here as well for a late Father's Day celebration and also got the Pork Belly with Kimchi. My father enjoyed it thoroughly and so did I. It was very crispy and cooked in a way where the natural flavors really came out nicely. The service was very quick, kind, and Andy was very accommodating during my visit, offering items on the house. I'll definitely come back and bring some friends along! :) read more

We stopped in for dinner the other night. There is parking available. The restaurant itself is small but charming. It feels very homey. We got the two person live seafood combo. It is $160 and comes with almost too much food. We could have easily brought one or two more people with us. You get so many dishes ranging from salads, to corn cheese, to pork, to a steamed egg, a seafood pancake and even cold kimchi soup. Then the live seafood arrives. The live octopus is so cool as it is still moving. Chew it thoroughly and then swallow so the suction cups don't stick to your mouth. There is also abalone, sea cucumber, sea squirt and spoon worms. The freshness is unmatched and the flavors are so good. The star is the halibut and fluke sashimi. Thee portion is so large and having fresh sashimi like this is unreal. And then there is still more food. Now the spicy pork, fried items such as tempura and onion rings, and a spicy fish stew all arrive. Then you get a bowl of Korean shaved ice to end the meal. Such an amazing experience. Service was amazing and really took the time to explain to us all the dishes and the best way to eat many of them. This is a one of a kind meal that you won't soon forget. read more

Come here and dine like royalty. My friend and I came here and got the 2 People Combo ($160) which includes a tanksome of live seafood. This definitely feeds more than two. They also have combos for 3-4 people. We came on a Tuesday when they opened at 530 and it was a slow night and they're open late. Parking was easy since it was slow. But since it shared the lot with a Billiards place I could imagine the lot getting busier. It'll be an adventure for some, especially when your food is still moving. The live octopus is not for everyone, we were instructed to chew it for awhile before swallowing it. Not my thing but my friend had some. The combo also included live abalone, sea squirt, sea cucumber, sashimi, spoon worm, and spicy squid cold broth, beef tartare, spicy fish stew, fried dishes and various special dishes (Jeollado-style: [the southwestern Jeolla provinces of South Korea] is globally renowned as the culinary heart of Korea, distinguished by bold, deeply savory flavors, generous portions, and the extensive use of heavily fermented seafood (jeotgal).) -google The service was god tier! I don't remember her name but she gave us the rundown for each dish. Since it was my first time, I asked what's the best way to eat this and she explained everything like a pro. I also asked if the restaurant is family run and she mentioned the owners grandmas are working in the kitchen and that's how you know this is authentic! We were able to eat most of it and it was soo good. Our server mentioned that we eat well!! I'm assuming a lot of people fail to clear out their plates read more

Zoomak is such a fun spot if you're looking for a lively night out with friends. The vibe is definitely upbeat, music playing in the background, a little loud, but in a good way that makes it feel energetic and social. The food was solid and perfect for sharing. The pork belly platter was beautifully presented and paired really well with the fresh salad in the center. We also tried the spicy dishes, and they had great flavor with just the right kick. Definitely hits the spot when you're drinking. The chicken dish was saucy, tender, and super satisfying. Drinks were on point too, making it an ideal place to hang out, catch up, and just enjoy the night. It's not a quiet dinner type of place, it's more of a "come here to have fun" kind of spot. There's limited parking but it is free. Out waitresses and waiter were very friendly and attentive. Overall, great food, great energy, and perfect for a group night out. I'd definitely come back for drinks and good vibes! read more

Great atmosphere, great food, and solid drink selection! Service was a little slow but servers were very friendly.

Great place to get the Korean pocha vibe. They have a wide variety of Korean food and good place to catch sports games with buddies.

My husband & I came here couple of weeks ago with 2 other couples so total 6 of us on a Saturday night. Ambiance was chill & laid back. There was outdoor seating as well. Business was slow around the time we got there with only 2 other tables but as the night went on, place got booked up. We ordered Kimchi pancake, tofu kimchi, corn cheese, chicken gizzard, & Bacon rice cake skewer for all of us to share. Everything was seasoned right & solid. Service was beyond excellent. Our server initially comped us a free bottle of soju bc he brought the wrong brand but then he continuously comped us more bottles of soju & beer. We don't why but thought that was very generous of him. Bc of the service, I'm definitely coming back in the future & would like to try other items on the menu. read more

I've come here several times before and tried a new menu item. The quesadilla was just okay and I likely won't order it again. We almost always get the shaved ice and the quality/quantity is not consistent and varies depending on who is making it. On this visit, it was excellent! The service and ambiance was good as always. read more

New pocha spot unlocked. The vibes were an older crowd and it was perfect to get drinks and chat with your friends as they weren't blasting the music. Everything was yummy but I wished their pork belly wasn't as fatty and more crispy. Service was pleasant as well. Will definitely be back. read more

If you're looking for an authentic Korean pocha experience, Zoomak is the place. We ordered the pork skin stir-fry, spicy braided pig's trotters, and the Army Stew, and every dish delivered bold, well-balanced flavors that pair perfectly with drinks. The atmosphere really sets this place apart -- not too loud, with nostalgic old-school Korean music that makes you want to stay longer. Solid food, great vibes, and a perfect spot for late-night eats and drinks. Would definitely come back. read more

ALWAYS THE GO TO SPOT!! I love going to pochas and gastropubs, late night eats and drinks. I frequented Korea Town in Los Angeles every week, since I wasn't aware of any late night spots with the same energy or atmosphere in OC. If you like to go to Sojuya, Kappo Honda, etc the like you should come here! The store is great for accommodating small parties I'd say up to 6 before you start combining tables or sitting split up. They also have table set up outside classic plastic stools and table style, which is great if you decide to order their BBQ which you can grill yourself. Food- Portions are great for the price and same with the variety of options that I would say are not as common as other places in OC. Versus other spots with mid fried food or basic items I think you can actually both eat a meal and snack as you go. I recommend the stir fried gizzards(comes with a separate salad similar to ones served at kbbq), beef tartare, and the NEW item slice pork belly with garlic sauce. Service- IS GREAT!! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. More so a relaxed environment for both customers dining in and staff. Atmosphere - Dark restaurant with neon light decor and patio lights I believe outside. It is a smallish restaurant so it feels cozier honestly. Wait- Honestly it depends when you go. Sometimes even if it is pretty packed I have only ever waited up to 10 minutes or so. And that's at around 11PM. Location- You have to turn into a narrow plaza. It has little parking especially when busy, I sometimes resort to street parking. There's karaoke and other restaurants in the next door plaza to hit up after if you go early enough. read more

Waited an hr for our food, never came. waiter was kinda cool but besides that never coming back here. i asked for the check cuz i was over it and the worker decides to call manager or sumn to figure it out which took 10. LIKE JUST GIVE ME MY CHECK AND VOID THE FOOD. Already fuming, i gave them 40 for the drinks and just left. also the staff seems incompetent. if u guys hve time to go outside and vape, then atleast check up on us. They didnt even realize we didnt hve our food until we told them. read more

Perfect spot to relax after work with friends eating some delicious Korean food and drinks. The server was very attentive and courteous. She came by often to check if we'd needed anything. She was nice enough to recommend special menu items too. My favorite is their yukjeon - beef pancake, lightly battered and pan fried served with shredded seasoned cabbages. Yummy Definitely recommend it! read more
