Kong pocha (Baltimore)

Came here with my little friend with glasses, we had a very fun time. I enjoyed the food, she enjoyed the food. She gives five big booms. She’s a little autistic and camera shy but it’s okay.

we came on a friday night for dinner and were seated immediately. all the food was pretty good, highly highly recommend the corn cheese it was so yummy! although i didn’t really like the sauce for the grilled cheese chicken. one of their fryers was also down so it would’ve been an hour wait for any fried dishes. vibes inside were cute tho and they generously gave more water and napkins when we asked.

I am a big fan of korean food, and have tried multiple places in this city, but by far, my favorite is this place. One thing to get here without fail is their omurice curry, its such a good curry with rice and egg, perfectly balanced taste, and i had with shrimp tempura, which was crispnice loved it. The fried chicken was delicious, too. Would recommend this place highly and make sure to get some lychee soju. The vibes of this place are fun night pubs in Seoul kind.

The Korean chicken is sooo good! My seafood soup came out perfect it was still boiling. Definitely a hidden gem here, The atmosphere is very friendly and the food came out fast 10/10

I requested no white sauce (maybe mayo?) on top, and they didn’t forget—really appreciate that! The chicken was perfectly crispy, and the seasoning was well-balanced. The portion was generous, making it a great deal for the price. The sauce was a bit heavy and sweeter than I usually like, but overall, it was still delicious.

Amazing. I ate some super bibimbap. This may have been the bibimbap of all time. I came with my neighbor William who is a little odd but I fw him. Everyone should come here and enjoy some delicious food

The closest to authentic Korean I've had in the city 🫨 Loved the army soup, seafood pancakes, and beer/soju!! Wasn't a huge fan of the dumplings. Service was great and such a good vibe inside! Need to try this karaoke room soon.

Three bellies got a taste of Kong tonight, and that's a win in my book. I never thought I'd be greatful to have my DoorDash order stolen- but if someone had never stolen my initial order, I might have never gotten to experience the mightiness of Kong's corn cheese dish- I'm originally from Houston but travelled here alongside my girlfriend for work. Our food scene is wildly competitive back home, as is our hospitality, and we've been scouring Baltimore for both ever since we first flew into BWI. The sweethearts working tonight hooked us up with this lovely kernel appetizer after hearing our troubling tale (in record time too, I've never received a takeout order so quickly). For anyone curious, rest assured, our Kimchi dumpling soup arrived safe and sound. It was clean and refreshing, clearing my heart (and nose) of anything troubling which can sometimes linger after a long day at work. I would've never thought to try their Corn Cheese, but thanks to Kong I got the chance. If you're having second thoughts about the cheese, get it anyways. I've never experienced anything like this before, both courtesy-wise and cuisine-wise. Thanks to Kong, I didn't have to cook tonight. Thanks to Kong, I got to try something new. Thank you Kong. Love, Sara B and Jaden T

I literally get the combo box every few days - hands down the best Korean food I've found in Baltimore. Highly recommend this combo box with cheese and curry (only available through delivery apps, but you can still order it for pickup). The fried chicken is easily the star - 10/10. Super crispy, tender inside, sweet chili sauce hits just right. The bulgogi is great to me (I'm biased bc I love Korean food) but is more soggy and not for everyone (6/10). The egg and rice with the cheese/curry combo is solid 7/10. Portions are generous. $23 for the combo box lasts me two full meals (and I eat a lot as a 6' 190lb guy). The chicken-only box could honestly feed 4 people. Fries are above average for a restaurant 8/10 - crisp and not overly fried but nothing mind-blowing and could use a bit more seasoning. Ambience-wise, it's what you'd expect from a Korean pocha spot, which is rare this close to downtown. Most importantly, the food is consistent. I've ordered a lot from here and will keep doing so. Overall: 10/10. If you're into Korean fried chicken or are looking for a nice pocha spot to hangout in Baltimore, this is a must. Just be careful of your surroundings as it seems to not be in the best parts of town.

The food was great! I ordered their Sweet chili chicken cup bap and was so surprised by how good it was. Chicken was fried to perfection, serving size was huge, and loved the sweet and spicy flavors. My daughter got their kimchi soup with dumplings and I loved how they seasoned it, gave me comfort food vibes. Came here Friday evening around 6 and they were not busy, but saw plenty of folks picking up food. We were seated right away and our orders were taken quickly. Maybe because there weren't a lot of dine in customers. The whole vibe of this place feels like a late night bar. The only drawback to this place is its location, but if you don't mind the graffiti...definitely worth a try if you want some good Korean food. Full disclosure, this place isn't in the best part of town. The neighborhood leaves much to be desired. I think next time we'll order take out.

I love love love this place. They are super authentic and they're always attentive to me when I order carry out and when I eat in the restaurant. I love their friend chicken, it's like no other and you don't have to have a flavor but all the flavors are good. I love their soup. I love how everytime I eat inside the restaurant, I know exactly what to expect and everytime, they deliver with passion Don't be deterred by the outside! Go inside and enjoy a Korean experience

I hadn't been to Kong Pocha in years until last night and shame on me. This place is incredible. The wait staff was inviting and knowledgeable about the various options, the interior was lively with catchy K-pop filling the air. But the food was the best part. The spicy and sweet fried chicken entree was addictive (though next time, I'll ask them to fry the accompanying fries extra crispy--too soggy for my taste). The edamame was simply seasoned with salt but we'll done. And the shrimp fried rice was workmanlike. It's dangerous for my waistline that this place is so delicious, nearby, and open late. I will absolutely return. 9/10

One of the best pocha places I've ever had! Very authentic vibe, super efficient service, lots of indoor seating and nearby parking. The banchan, cream chicken omelet, and corn cheese were some of the tastiest dishes I've had in a while. Generous portion sizes. Highly, highly recommend!

A hot spot for college students to gather and grab a meal together (not always for drinks hahaha). For after dinner hours a party of five friends including me ordered the army stew and a combo platter of chicken, fries, and salad. The food was filling! It came out to be about $20/person split this way. The fries are a bit of a disappointment we realize because they are reheated as they are a bit softer and slightly lacking in taste because of it. Service was kind, immediate, and hospitable. Thank you!

I started going to Kong Pocha back when they opened and ADORE them so much! The staff are super (thanks Jack for always making me smile and feel welcomed into the space!) and service is quick and friendly. This is a great spot to go with friends, either one or 8+, and have a hearty meal and share some soju. Kong Pocha is also a shining star in the night as one of the few places open late EVERY NIGHT! I first fell in love with their curry omu rice, a luxurious dish of rice, their super star k fried chicken, an omelette, and a velvety, layer of a creamy, rich curry sauce. The fried chicken isn't like a baltimore chicken box. it's not chef hard wings. it's K-fried chicken and it's addictingly good! Crunchy, crisp, juicy, and seasoned perfectly as a different but welcomed experience to the options in MD. Don't sleep on their traditional dishes! When I take friends, I always encourage them to try items they've never had or heard of like the seafood soups/stews or braised items. YUM! If you want to wade your way in, start with more approachable items like the corn cheese (simple but delicious) or seafood pancake, followed by a cup bap. Personally, I love all of the omulette rice, the jjamppong--짬뽕, or the Seafood & Fish Cake Casserole--해물 오뎅 전골. Eat family style for even more fun!

Have never left a review before. Disappointment awaits. This place provides miserable food. Ordered Bulgogi and Shrimp dumplings. Let me show you what I got. The Bulgogi is an atrocious tray of onions and a bit of beef and the "dumplings" are like tater tots. Worst culinary expedience I've had in Baltimore. Forget this place. Never again.

I've now become a semi-regular here and boy I gotta tell ya the food is worth it every time. Normally I'd order the Bulgogi Cupbap and my boyfriend with get the Chicken Cupbab. Both entrees are always so delicious, everything is cooked to perfection. I'd typically spend about $35 each time. To be honest, each portion of both meals is enough for two. I have gotten the tteokbokki once and personally I'm not the audience for it; it's still cooked very well though. I will say though this restaurant CAN get a little pricey if you take advantage of the kbbq selections or some of their other meal choices. But their more simple dishes can be really affordable. The service is pretty good as well, it's very simple and easy going. I will say one thing though it is a little difficult when it comes to checking out, there isn't a specific waitress/waiter, so it's a little confusing. The style of the establishment is really homey, if you're familiar with traditional kbbq then you'll agree when I say it's pretty close to the real thing. Very nice late dining spot

From the outside I wasn't sure what to expect. It was a bit dark inside with low warm lighting. They seated us in a back corner which had less light than the corner across but it wasn't terrible. Menus are available via QRcode so we love the sustainability. I went here for a date night and it was super chill. The staff didn't really bother you too much throughout your dining. They gave you the instructions and gave you a lot of time to decide on what to eat and they answered any questions you might have. The food came out super quick. I honestly think it took less than 15m for the food to be served after ordering. Their food was really tasty and fresh. They also gave ALOT so the money is worth the portions. I ordered the Sweet Chili Chicken Cup-BAP, it was more sweet than chili. Still was good nonetheless. They also gave an assortment of toppings or additional adds like kimchi, pickle radish, etc. by it self it was great however the kimchi wasn't my fav because it had a bit of a kick to it. Overall I would rate this place a 7.5/10.

If i could give it more than 5 stars i would. Went here before the Short n Sweet tour for a pre-concert dinner and oh my god... you'd have to drag me out of here. The food was DELICIOUS. This is truly a hidden gem because there should be lines out of the door for this place.

The food was a ten out of ten especially since their portions were so big. The teokbeokkie was spicy, sweet, and cheesy. I also had the jampoong which was perfect for the cold night. We did have to wait a bit since the place is smaller and did not have a reservation. Definitely a family style meal place!

This was one of the few spots that were open late night after a concert in Baltimore. - Rice Cake + Dumpling Soup - Spicy Pork Hot Stone Bibimbap Both of the entrees were decent for a late night meal otherwise it does not stand out compared to other Korean restaurants. The service was good even though it was very busy that night because almost everyone came from the concert nearby. The exterior near the parking lot looks kind of sketchy, but the interior has a unique bar vibe.

Grabbed dinner here the other night. I used to frequent this location a decade ago when it was under different ownership. The true Korean BBQ experience is gone. You can order some other Korean dishes. We got the bulgogi which was good, the other steak dish which was just ok, the seafood pancake was truly bland and underwhelming, and the beef tofu soup which was great. I was disappointed both in the variety of banchan. The ambiance is very casual and they have a parking lot next door

I got the boneless sweet and spicy fried chicken ($25.99). It came with fries and a salad. The chicken was very good - crispy and flavorful. They also gave a 4 complimentary side dishes of kimchi, pickled radish, tofu with a chili sauce, and green beans and cabbage. That was nice to eat while we waited for our chicken to arrive. Our server was friendly and the food came out relatively fast. The kitchen is open until midnight so I can see how it is a very popular spot for college students, which seems to be most of their customers. In terms of the ambiance, it was very casual. There is a bar up front with Korean BBQ plates. They also have there own private parking lot, which is a plus!

Kong Pocha stays in my mind rent-free. It's so delicious and the perfect late night hangout spot. I've come a few times and each time is great! It was a little tough to find street parking and a spot in the parking lot (it's very small but to the right of the store), but we managed to eventually. There's many tables both in the back and the front, but the place is popular enough that you might have to wait a little bit before you get a table even if it's late. It's kind of confusing because you have to walk into the middle of the store past the bar area to get seated. I like the vibe here! The lighting is really dim with Korean music playing in the background at a moderate level. I think it's a great spot for a group hangout or a date night! Service has always been very kind and you get buttons to call your server. Food comes out quickly. The banchan is good but I wish there was a little more variety. I love the curry chicken cup-bap and cream omelet. The chicken is spiced so perfectly and comes out crispy and juicy. The curry has a nice blend of sweetness and various spices. There is also so much chicken that comes with the meal! The cream omelet was also delicious and large! We also ordered the corn cheese, which isn't my favorite that I've had, but is okay. Overall, I think the food has great value and taste. I'll probably crave their chicken forever. I would love to come to drink and have tasty eats with friends!

Kong is such an asian classic in the charles village area, especially for college students. modeled after a classic Korean late night bar, this is the perfect place for a casual dinner, getting drinks, or 2am bites. It's a default option for many craving asian food and for good reason! Known for their fried chicken, this visit had me ordering three different portions of it. the galbi sauced fried chicken is incredible. crispy, crunchy, juicy, sweet, tinged with sourness, and savory, it's an excellent option for greasy food lovers. It's controversial for food lovers to order bone in vs Boneless, but the boneless option at Kong is excellent and packs a comparable amount of flavor because they use chicken thighs. the cream omurice with fried chicken was also delicious, with a savory cream layered with soft eggs and seasoned rice. i will say having a bit more sauce would have been great but that's being very nitpicky the spicy chicken with cheese is something i've never had but it was very good! chargrilling the chicken brought a smokey element unique to this dish on the menu, and while i'm usually a proponent of fried over grilled, this dish goes toe to toe with the rest of the spread. I think having a pickle on the side would take this to an 11/10 as it's very rich but still incredibly tasty. Lastly the cheese tteobboki was not the star of the show but offered carbs for our meal. i think it's a bit too saucy though and it's a little bit grainy, but flavor wise it's very balanced with the spice, salt, and sweetness. i wish there were more fish cakes in addition to the quantity of rice, especially for the price, but oh well. Service for this place is all business, it's pretty standard although sometimes can be a little iffy in terms of speed. I think the menu is also on the pricier side for korean food but the flavors make it very justifiable if you have a little dough to spend. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for good asian food!

All I can say is WOW! If you're looking for authentic Korean food in a hyper local Bmore setting, this is the place for you. The CM of Baltimore took me here after an event and I'm so happy she did. This spot is open late on Thursdays. I love the intimate setting and all the film posters in Korean on the wall. We were seated quickly and given tasty banchan. My friend highly recommended this secret menu item that was a combo. I opted for the original version of it and was able to try so many different delicious things on their menu from this. I had incredible fried chicken, a fried egg on rice, and another delicious BBQ type dish. It was so much food I was able to take some home for the next day. I also tried their amazing corn cheese. It was sweet gooey deliciousness. My friend adored her kimchi fried rice. I highly recommend checking out this local gem.

What a welcome to an authentic Korean bar experience. Walking into the restaurant there were several people waiting in the standby area for seating. The staff attentively greeted us and advised the wait time with be roughly 20-25 minutes. Shorter than expected we were able to get seated and scanned the QR code to access the menus. The layout of the restaurant did give street bar vibes with moderate decor consistent to what you can find in Seoul or Chunchoen. The crowd was mostly Asian in the 20-30 age range. They corn cheese was super creamy, gooey, and tasty as it was served on a cast iron skillet to the table. *Bonus* the staff understood Korean drinking games and spectated and provided options to try which added to the authenticity of Korean bar experience. Be ready to have a spoon, Soju, and beer handy. The brisket was prepared in the kitchen opposed to being made at the table. Didn't matter as it was super tasty and loaded with veggies. This is one of the rare times it was season compared to the uncooked table side brisket what you have to add your own seasonings. The star of the show was the chicken. One you get a huge portion of chicken and I do encourage you to do the bone in over boneless. The cut of the chicken was not a standard breakdown so you had better bites and more symmetrical pieces. The server did us a favor and brought the sweet and sour on the side so we were able to try the chicken both ways. It was well seasoned, very hot, juicy, crunchy, and tender. Lastly, I finished off the evening with the popsicle which you can select from many options in the freezer. I really like this restaurant and I would give them a 4.6 of 5 star rating. Can't wait to go back!!!!

Easily one of the best places for food in Baltimore. If you don't know about pochas, it serves Korean food and is open until late night. Service is quick and food is delicious. Great for hanging out with friends before or after a night out! Would recommend the honey butter friend chicken and their pancakes. And always with with a bottle of soju. Come with friends and have a good time with great food!

We tried the curry omurice bowl through DoorDash. Curry was super yummy and a little sweet. The fried chicken stayed surprisingly crispy even though this was a delivery order. The egg and rice were fine but the chicken and curry stole the show. This meal totally hit the spot after a late night out

Really unique dining experience with some awesome Korean comfort food. The kko kko fried chicken was phenomenal and a huge portion! Excellent service, very attentive and nice staff. Love the decor and ambiance. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Stopped by this past Wednesday night and my goodness have things changed! So good that the place stayed packed ALL night!! They even utilized the front and back private room for more seating. I was there with a group of 6 for about 6-7 hours catching up with some friends. For starters, the food tasted sooooo good! Best that I've ever tasted and I've been going here for a while !! The fish cake soup was so flavorful and had a nice kick of spice with the addition of the jalapeno peppers. The chicken was crunchy and stayed crunchy and the sauce was a nice balance of sweet and spicy. The tteokbokki was also well balanced and it was a generous portion! Since we were there for so long and kept ordering drinks they gave us some free items like the corn cheese which was so creamy. The fries were very crunchy, not soggy at all and the sweet chili sauce was a nice compliment. The servers kept checking in on us and did their best while they were also managing 8-10 other tables! I am so glad to see the changes and I hope it stays this way!

When I ate at this restaurant it was a large group of people, so I was pleasantly surprised with how fast the staff took and came out with our orders. The food was delicious and even looked mouth-watering.

Chicken wings were doing their thing very well big wings, hella juicy and oily like fried chicken should. Was incredible idr the flavor but was good. Seasfood Noodles were great as well and the vibes immaculate. You know the food is flowing here

Excited to try this new spot, and it was really good. But of course word travels fast and expect a little wait time But the food was amazing . We started with seafood pancake ... first time trying it and it was cooked so well... also really loved the steamed shumai... was already stuffed and still had some of the sweet and spicy fried chicken Will definitely come back and highly recommend

Walked to this place after catching a movie at Charles Theater. The interior had a cool vibe with Kpop blasting. We scanned the QR menu and decided to share an order of spicy rice cakes with cheese and sweet and spicy fried chicken that came with a salad. For 2 people, it was definitely way more than enough. We are definitely getting 2 separate meals out of this other than just dinner tonight. The bone in fried chicken is easily shareable for 3 to 4 people. It's sweet and spicy but not overwhelmingly spicy, very crispy despite being drenched in the sauce. The spicy rice cake appeteizer was definitely a hit as well with mozzarella cheese. This place stays open late into the night, so it's a perfect place to hit up if you're looking to eat some carbs after out partying and drinking or something.

This place is great. I get the Kongbination every time which is really good. The food is high quality and good for the price. The kimchi pancake is also good. $18 for the Kongbination which includes rice, fried egg, two kinds of bulgogi, 2 kinds of fried chicken.

I go here almost everyday. Literally the best korean spot in maryland. Get anything on the menu and it will be fire fs

Delicious food with just enough vegetarian options. Great vibe inside the restaurant regardless of how busy. One of my fav dinner and late night places in Baltimore!

Kong Pocha in Baltimore is a Korean restaurant styled with nostalgic retro memorabilia and serving affordably priced comfort dishes. For dinner we had the dumplings, seafood pancake, kimchi pancake, sweet and spicy fried chicken and army soup. Affordably priced and generously portioned, Kong Pocha is a great place for a casual group or pregame dinner

Kong Pocha is an unassuming Korean spot tucked away from the busier streets. It's entrance is small but belies the large open space and casual format within. The pictures of the fried chicken originally left me a little concerned about authenticity (and quality). After all, I was a long way from NYC's KTown. However, once the Kongbination platter arrived, I was converted! Kong Pocha seems to only offer boneless fried chicken but it's juicy. They said that they only serve dark meat. I didn't know dark meat boneless chicken was a thing? The breading was amazing too with the sauces. The Kongbination also comes with bulgogi and spicy pork, both of which were also amazing. If I'm ever back in Baltimore with a late night craving for Korean fried chicken or soju, I'll be going to Kong Pocha!

I had them one time late December via Uber eats in the area I was in and I was pressed to get back. Went again early February after work one night was kinda sad cause I didn't want to go by myself but I was welcomed Ordered my food. I could smell soo many spices and seasoning I was reconsidering my chi ice that was decided on in the car. It's very family friendly. Enjoy your meal

I crave Kong Pocha at least once a week and end up going at least monthly, so it's past time I review it! I cannot recommend this Station North hidden gem enough. Always playing K-Pop and other Korean music with Korean idol and/or vintage movie posters on the walls, the inside is dark and never more than half full. Open 4pm-2am most days, this authentic Korean restaurant guarantees bang for your buck with large portions and banchan with every meal. The last time I went, I was craving cheese (which we all know is a specific, all-consuming type of hunger), so I got the Tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) with Cheese appetizer; the satisfyingly chewy bite-size cakes were topped with mozzarella and covered in a perfect medium-spicy broth. Like always, I got the Kongbination for my entree, a great deal for only $18.99; this large dish comes with tender beef and pork bulgogi, crispy fried chicken, and a fried egg on rice. I highly recommend this Baltimore Korean spot - come hungry and ready to bring home leftovers.

This is the sort of place where memories are made. This is because this is one of the few late night grub spots. So if you're in the area and hungry and it's 10 pm, FANTASTIC. The food itself is solid but by far not the best quality Korean food I've had. But if you're sort of drunk, sometimes it doesn't matter. Sometimes you're just there to eat something warm with good company. Plus, this place definitely serves good vibes. I haven't been to Korea, but I imagine there are spots just like this there. Somehow no matter what day you come and how late, this place is busy (contributing to the vibes). Service is solid. A little pricey but you forgive them. When I eventually leave Baltimore, I'll look back on my time at Kong Pocha fondly!

Kong does excellent Korean food in a very unassuming building. We came here and quickly were able to find seating. This place fills up FAST! We got a few dishes: corn cheese, sweet and spicy fried chicken, and beef bulgogi. They brought out 4 banchan (side dishes) that were each excellent - a crunchy and sweet radish, kimchi, cold sautéed beans and onions, and a tofu dish. We then got our corn cheese. This dish was still bubbling with cheese as it arrived to our table. The cheese was perfectly melted and had a slightly sweet flavor due to the corn kernels. Highly recommend! The fried chicken came and again it was amazing. It came with fries with mayo drizzled on. The fries were really solid. The chicken itself wasn't that crispy as we had hoped, but the flavor packed a punch and had a small kick. If their chicken was crispy and fresh this would've been an easy 5/5. The beef bulgogi had a lot of flavor. I do think it was too much onion to beef ratio, as for the price you would hope to have more beef. Again, flavor was spot on and quantity was pretty decent. Overall this is a really good spot, and if they could make the few changes I have suggested, it would be a great spot.

Kong Pocha deserves five stars! We enjoyed the crispiest Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) along with sweet, creamy Corn Cheese. The Army Stew, a favorite of mine, stands out for its history and unique, satisfying taste. It's a delicious relic of the Korean War (6-25) with a traditional jjigae stew base, featuring Army rations like government cheese and savory spam along with ramen noodles, chewy tteokbokki rice cakes, all in a spicy, fatty broth--truly a cultural melting pot. Honorable mention for the spicy, umami Kimchi Fried Rice. This time we rented the private room with karaoke--food and fun was about $45 per person for 15 people.

The fried chicken here is amazing and highly recommend it. They come is large portions and one is definitely enough for 2 people. The salad that comes with it is kinda mid, but the chicken makes up for it. The fried dumplings are okay, but not amazing. The service was great and it gets busy later in the night.

I FINALLY made it to Kong Pocha. Even though I've lived around this spot for years, I never made a point to visit. Four of my friends and I came by for dinner on a Saturday night. We were seated immediately and the service was great the entire evening. We ordered... - boneless fried chicken - shrimp shumai - seafood pancake - kimchi fried rice - BBQ pork belly Wow, wow, wow. Everything was just incredible. My favorites had to be the fried chicken, the seafood pancake, and the kimchi fried rice. Fried chicken was crispy but still meaty, seafood pancake was packed with flavor and very filling, kimchi fried rice was perfectly cooked and spicy but not overwhelmingly spicy. I didn't get to try the BBQ pork belly but all my friends said it was great! We also got some beers and soju to drink and let's just say everyone was a bit lit by the time we left. Total came out to about $40 per person including tip. Solid! A couple things to note: they don't have their BBQ stations open right now so if you want a DIY experience, you'll have to go elsewhere. None of us were bothered by this and my friends remarked that the pork was very well cooked. Kong Pocha, you have a new fan!

Kong pocha has the best sundubu jigae. It is my favorite. Service is fine, the waitress only checked in on us a couple of times. It has a nice vibe, I like to sit down and eat there but I often order food delivery from them.

A fun concept Korean restaurant in the heart of Baltimore city. The decor is a throwback to old school drinking joints in Korea and the food is bar food oriented. The service is always helpful with explanations of dishes and the staff speaks English so no need to be intimidated to order! Things I regularly order are the butter fried chicken which is just fried chicken with a lighter sauce but it's still crispy. The dish is pretty big with fries and salad. I've tried the kimchee fried rice and it was absolutely delicious. The cream omelet rice wasn't as heavy as I was worried about and was quite tasty! Would recommend for a quick dinner or a night where you want to hangout with friends while drinking both American and Korean alcoholic drinks! The selection there is a nice intro to Korean drinks!

The presentation was very nice. The bow was neatly packed and the food nicely arranged. I ordered the KONGBINATION. One taste and I knew this place is not for me. As I forked through the rice, I discovered that the carton was dampened with grease which really made my tummy ache. Didnt like food at all. I enjoy authentic Korean cooking and have had Bulgogi many times and have loved it elsewhere particularly in Ellicott City, but this West 20th Street, Baltimore restaurant did not impress me at all. I hope the food improves. I am a picky diner and an aficionado when it comes to Asian cuisine and when it comes to restaurants in general.

Food was great, good portions sizes. Service was quick even though it was pretty late. Nice vibes & drinks.

A true authentic Korean gem in Baltimore!! It is like a time capsule of the 90s Korean pojangmacha late night experience, down to the decor and style of the menu. The atmosphere is amazing with amazing food to match. Service was also good and fast. The area is not canton safe but is absolutely worth the visit. Am looking forward to returning to try the karaoke for another fun night out. A must try in Baltimore and for any Korean food enthusiasts!

It's rare to find a pocha in a city like Baltimore, but this one gives all the best vibes. The food is awesome and pretty reasonably priced, I just wish the drinks were a bit cheaper considering it's a pocha. Service was great all around, would definitely come back on a night out with friends!

This hole in the wall is some of the best Korean food you will find in Baltimore! Every dish we had was excellent, especially the fried chicken, seafood pancake, and the cheese corn! It can be hard to find a Korean place on the east coast that serves cheesy corn but this place had it, so that's basically an automatic 5 stars for me! The staff was super friendly and the prices were good for the amount of food that you got. The neighborhood looks a little sketch at first glance but well worth a visit!

Came for the food, stayed for the vibe. For real tho, the food was solid, nothing crazy buttt... late night?? parking?? Terra??? Imma be back

We got 2 bibimbops and they were absolutely delicious. This is now my wife and my new go-to Korean spot. Super chill and very enjoyable.

The food was very good, the fried chicken was excellent. We had several dishes recommended by Jack our host. Great guy! When we arrived at around 7 they had only a few coustomers but by the time we left it was a full house. Plenty of free parking on the side of the building. So to start, we really enjoyed the pickled items, Kimchi and radishes were a favorite. They have beers and many flavors of Soju, really refreshing and very much appreciated. We started with the Kong combination, pork, beef, fried chicken, rice, etc. then we also had the pork belly, recommended by Jack, which was perfect. Very meaty, although my wife thought it was a bit tough, I enjoyed the flavor and texture. We also had the rice and melted cheese pancake, a very heavy app, but we were here to try everything we could. I thought it had a nice amount of heat, I could have used more in fact. We had a great meal in a very busy spot, (get there early!) and we will go back!
