15 Essential Korean Restaurants to Try in Orange County

"Inspired by Korean food wagons that evolved into outdoor food stalls, Hanshin Pocha serves street food and savory bar bites that pair well with soju and beer. Wedged in a cluster of casual restaurants near an Albertsons at Quail Hill Shopping Center, the location seems like an unusual place to set up a pocha. But people (many of whom are UCI students) wait in groups outside for tables. The tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) and kimchi jeongol (kimchi hot pot), along with the pub-friendly whole fried chicken and stir-fried spicy squid are easily shareable. Dishes can also be taken to-go." - Jenn Tanaka
