    The original Korean food! We had an amazing tteokbokki with cheese and a beer. We've been offered a can of grape juice because our order was a few minutes late (we didn't even noticed that)😂. The restaurant was warm and tidy and the staff smiley and professional. We'll definitely come back!

    AMAZING!!! Wish i could give it 10 stars!!!! The food was PERFECT, super flavorful and delicious authentic Korean food, and the portions are HUGE!! We tried the rice cakes and the chicken, and another dish where they poured melted cheese on top (HEAVEN!) and I definitely want to return to try out all the other dishes including noodles and stews! The staff were all so friendly and helpful and spoke perfect english, and the menu has lots of pictures and ingredients, which was truly appreciated. Definitely a must-visit, and I will visit again for sure!! This has become my new favorite Korean food restaurant in Prague!! 🌟💕 100% recommended!

    Classic fried chicken is excellent! Best fried chicken in town. Bulgogi chicken and yangnyeom chicken are good but a little sweet, not spicy. Next time I will ask for more spicy. The menu has many interesting options but they require 2+ people to eat. Bulgogi noodle is a little boring

    A humble place which feels very authentic, reminded a lot places seen in Korea. Service was very fast and friendly. As always with Korean cuisine, there is a lot of onions - those who dont like them too much, better check put what goes into their dish

    A seriously great find in Prague. A real authentic korean food, one of the best I've found throughout European countries, no kidding. Tteobokki is excellent, portion size is also generous compare to the price. They also decorate a part of the restaurant to make it feel more like Korean food stall. Would recommend this place.

    The food in this restaurant was amazing. Truly authentic taste and spice levels. We ordered tteokbokki, their chewiness combined with sweet and spicy sauce were out of this world. Also we had plenty of side dishes like kimchi, seaweed etc., for free! Personally I would like to see more drink options and maybe some dessert, but other than that, i think that there were plenty of options to choose from, even some vegetarian ones. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

    We had dinner and everything was good. We ordered dakgalbi 8,5/10 (huge portion) for 3-4 people. Chicken feet (huge portion) 8/10 for 2-3 people. Fried chicken 7/10 Crab stick egg soup 8/10 They take cash only / bank transfer. Service is good! I think you need to have reservation first, I was lucky because there’s table available. It’s nice to have dinner here. Greetings from Indonesia ✨

    This would be a long one! 1. The staff are very nice and friendly. When we got there, the staff told us that the restaurant was full and there was no table left. As we went outside and looked for another dinner options, the staff went to us and inform us that they put out one table for us!! 2. The food is authentic!! We ordered chimaek combo (chicken-maekju/beer) and seafood jjampong. The taste of both were just top notch! Reminded us of our days in South Korea. The seafood jjampong was perfectly spicy to my taste, which is quite rare because usually the Korean restaurants in Europe do not serve proper spice of korean food. 3. The price is more affordable than the ones I experienced in Germany.

    Second time here. It was pretty good. Service was attentive. They stayed open late. Seems authentic, unlike other places in Praha that mix in sushi and other non-Korean items.

    Great Korean food. We had kimchi pancakes and mandu for starters. For main dish bibimbab all was tasteful. Recommend visit if you are in the area.

    Five stars doesn't feel enough for this restaurant. Absolutely fantastic Korean cuisine, incredible atmosphere and pleasant service. They have soju drinking guides on TV nearby, which also adds a fun touch. A must if you like Korean food!

    First time trying korean food or eating with sticks 😁, but kind staff tried to teach all od us to eat with it. Good food, not too spicy, depends what you get. We are glad to have visited this place. 😁👍👍👍

  • 5/5 Yana R. 1 year ago on Google
    Very delicious food in an authentic Korean environment - huge portions and a friendly service. The only negative point was that it was rather cold inside. Will surely come again, maybe when it gets warmer!👍

    The food was amazing, we had chicken feet and crab soup combo with bulgogi and kimchi pancakes. As much as I would love to give it 5 stars, the staff only spoke English which is ok although would be nice if they said “sorry please in English” instead of bluntly saying “ English only”. Before we got our order we had to wait longer than 30 minutes and in the end we had to go to the front of the restaurant and request for someone to come and get our order. Other than that, food was fantastic.

    Great location, close to the centre. Perfect place to visit near Vysehrad for some Korean food! They have a great atmosphere and the waitress is super nice ☺️

    We found this place by luck, and it is truly a hidden gem a bit outside the main city. The service was very friendly, the restaurant had a cool and original atmosphere and the food, well, it was nothing short of amazing. I would have given it more stars if I could! 🌟

    This place was great, but got little service. The flavored rice wine was delightful. I had the coconut and my friends got the honey. The kimchi pancakes (kimchi jeon) were super good. We ordered Ttoek-bokki for our main dish which did not disappoint. I'm not a huge Korean food buff, so I can't vouch for how legitimate it is. It was delicious, spicy and filling. I hope to come back and try other dishes here in the future.

    Came for New Year’s Eve— Cute and clean, pleasant calm environment, relaxing and homey decor. Was blown away by the food, the Kimchi jeon, chicken wings (the sauce was the best sauce I’ve had in Prague since August!) and the rice cakes, it was all amazing.

    Lovely place, great food a bit spicy 🔥, so be prepared. You can get here nice portion of food for about 200 CZK. If you love Korean food you definitely shouldn't miss it.

    Authentic Korean food in Prague! Their kimchi jeon is crispy on the outside but still soft on the inside. We had 4 types of banchan including their home made kimchi which is a delight! We also had the jjampong and tofu kimchi jjigae, both of which was perfectly spicy and well-seasoned🥹 the perfect cure for our hangover 💛

    Visited Europe and was craving Korean food so badly! Chanced upon Praha Pocha and it did not disappoint - The atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely - We ordered the fried chicken and a stew to share, it was tasty! Everything seasoned well and super yummy

    If you love Korean food or are you willing to experience exotic foods? This is the correct place. The most important thing is that the owner himself has been around. It is very well cooked very well arranged. Deserves the 5*

    What a treat and discovery in Prague. My friend from Poland and me (from Canada) wanted to pursue his love of Korean food. And we found it here. Everything that showed up at our table was delicious. But the 6 stars goes to the service - which was because of Bahar and Alex.

  • 5/5 Radka B. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing experience, amazing food, amazing service. Really recommend it to anyone interested in korean cuisine and culture!

  • 5/5 Tommaso S. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Dárius G. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing, tasty and cheap Korean food in Prague 👌👍.

  • 5/5 Roger A. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome restaurant with the original Korean taste. Since my last time in Korea I didn't find a place with such a good gamjatang and dakbal. Eating in Pocha has been like being in a Seoul's street restaurant again. Good products and the original receipe: on a portable stove, with fresh banchan, and somaek

  • 5/5 Mate 2 years ago on Google
    Great food, even better service 👩‍💼👌 Veronika is best waiter ever 🙂

  • 5/5 Aqmil K. 11 months ago on Google
    Love the place as well as the food. Came here twice - lunch and dinner (different days) the food is superb. We have a lot of Korean food in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, however the food here is totally different. Fully recommended 5/5

  • 3/5 Eva F. 10 months ago on Google
    Came on a Wednesday eve, no problem to find a free table for two (around 19:00). The food was OK, wings were good, fruit soju really nice (recommend to come on Wed, it is cheaper), but bibimbap was a bit disappointing... Comparing to other Korean restaurants (also their own, one close to Národní I believe have the same owner), we had better in taste and plating there. The staff was fine, no big issue. The place was quite big, but without any interesting details, bibimbap came plated in a bowl you usually use for prep not eating. Fighting! You can do better in future! 😉

    Im there at tuesday. We didnt reservation but we are lucky to get the table. Its "the best" korean restaurant that i ever eat,even I was in many famous restaurant. Especially when you are asian who move abroad to europe. I was there with my husband(deutscher). He still say that everything is so delicious. For the price i think it's reasonable price with perfect portion. All the waiter and waitress are so nice.

  • 5/5 Marten H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food! Came at a quiet time, so plenty of space. Loved the decor. The bibimbap and chicken was very tasty, but I expected it to be more spicy.

  • 4/5 Cristi 2 years ago on Google
    This is a hidden Korean restaurant with a good offer on the menu of dishes. There are many 2 persons dishes which look the most attractive as well. We had a kimchi soup and a gamjatang pork stew. The portions were big and the food was very tasty. The prices are above mid, it was a bigger bill than other restaurants. The staff is young and nice.
