Pocha is short for Pojanmacha in Korea. The exact definition of Pojanmacha is "Tented Cart on Wheels" that serves street food with drinks. Over the years, pojanmacha has developed more into a brick and mortar style and has similar feel that of Japanese style Izakaya. It is an intimate but causal spot to share good food and drinks with friends. We focus on Asian fusion with a concentration on Korean food.

    We arrived 10 minutes before the restaurant opened, but they graciously seated us at a table and gave us water while we waited. All of the servers that work there are so kind and friendly. The buffet did not disappoint. They had an entire section that was vegan friendly.

    My husband and I loved the bright light coming in from the windows, the quiet ambience, the sincerely attentive service and the extremely tasty freshly cooked food. Plus the brown butter pot de creme was amazing! I had the General Tso's Chicken and it was perfectly spiced with the best braised cabbage leaves. Delicious! Well worth the price for all that we enjoyed. We will definitely visit again and regularly.
