"Everyone knows that a little bit (but not a lot) of interactive cooking equals fun at a restaurant. Pochawa Grill also knows that bright pink neons and pumping K-pop ramps that up to the next level. This tight-knit Korean BBQ spot in Chinatown isn’t built for wallflowers. It’s inspired by pojangmachas in South Korea—stalls where you can eat, drink, and slur words with friends until the early hours. Even though it closes at 11pm, good times are still had here by groups small and large. Meat sizzles on tabletop grills and everything, from rib-eye to the LA galbi, is well prepared and presented." - Jake Oliver, Daisy Meager, Sinead Cranna, Rianne Shlebak
