Zu & Pocha has become my spouse's and I's favorite date night spot. The pricing is good, but the highlights are the quality of the food and the amazing rapport of the staff. 11 out of 10 would recommend to anyone that wants a chill persona 5 esque vibe. Also high note their cocktails are phenomenal and recommend the ruby vine and cloud 9 each time, also thier oysters are amazing!!!

I came in by myself on Valentines. It was very packed and unfortunately they had ran out of the wagyu steak, which is what I came for. But the food I got was still super delicious. There was a little mix up in the kitchen and didn’t get my ramen but I think it’s understandable given how busy they were. But honestly the best part of the night was the amazing service by my server/bartender Kiho, who was just amazing. No matter how busy he was he always made sure to regularly check on me and my food. He was just amazing!! I’ll definitely be back for the impeccable customer service!!

Worst experience ever….waited for 45 mins and at the end the server said the kitchen is packed and we need to wait for more 20 mins….we had reservation too. What is the point of reservation when you need to wait for an hour??? This is disgusting. They ruined our valentine’s dinner.

I usually love their wagyu steaks, flavor itself is amazing. There was a tiny inconvenience tonight but the manager and the server did a very good job handling the issue.

Dining here is truly an amazing experience. The staff were so kind and attentive and always coming to check on how our meal was, not to mention how amazing and special each dish is. Definitely must visit and a great place to come with friends and family. The kimchi fried rice and the seafood jjampong was definitely my favorite and a must try!

Truly a 10/10 dinner experience!! The atmosphere was super upscale yet cozy and the staff there were extremely attentive and welcoming. Not to mention, the food was AMAZING! I’d recommend the kimchi fried rice, the jjamppong ramen, and any of the sushi rolls. Will definitely be returning on my next trips to Phoenix!

We were visiting Phoenix for just a couple nights and were looking for a great dinner near the Arizona Grand Resort, and happily we ended up at Zu and Pocha! It wasn’t too busy on a Saturday night and had a fun laid back atmosphere. We started with the takoyaki and the fried smelt. I’ve been wanting to try takoyaki for a while and they certainly met my expectations! Crispy on the outside with a hot delicious filling. The smelt was a new experience for me, when I imagined whole fried fish I thought they would be smaller and crispier, but they were tender and juicy. I even ate the heads lol; fun and unique for sure.

For our mains we both got the kimchi fried rice; there were a ton of entrees I’d love to try but that fried rice just sounded too good to miss! Portions were generous, food was great, and the service was fast and attentive. I’d love to come back if I’m in the area again!
