Absolutely loved this place. We recommend the hotdogs, chicken bulgogi (has some rice cakes), and soy garlic fried chicken. The customer service is excellent and let us use the restroom after closing. Great customer service, great food, and loved the vibes. Highly recommended for everyone

In a state lacking Korean pubs/bars we should be grateful to have 1st Street Pocha. Solid menu and offerings that are well prepared. If I had to gripe, it is on the pricey side and the interior layout is a bit odd which does take away from the vibe of a Korean bar.

One of my favorite wings spots in town! Gotta get the half and half wings.
The noodles are delicious. Usually just do veggie since we’re doing wings.
Last but not least the fries omgosh a must try!

Great food, had spicy noodles with chicken, and their wings were great! Had both the original and spicy! My buddy had the chicken Bulgogi and said it was delicious, too! Would definitely visit again!

I'm not even exaggerating when I say this was the best fried chicken I've ever had in my 24 years of life. The fried chicken was hot fresh and crispy. I absolutely loved the flavors that I ordered. Can't say I was a huge fan of the Rose Tteokbokki. We also got some Soju that was really good and a spicy seafood soup which was very spicy just keep that in mind. I'll definitely be back again soon. Maybe during the week. Keep in mind that if you go on a weekend that the restaurant is very small so you'll probably have to wait to be seated. Some thing that did turned me off a lot about this restaurant was that there was a group of 3 men Being extremely loud and obviously they were drunk, but I felt like they were over-served alcohol. The restaurant is very small so I could hear them literally screaming and laughing right next to me. It really did not let me enjoy my meal as much as I would've liked to.

Overpriced ($17 for a bottle of soju), fried chicken tasted like frozen chicken that was thrown into hot oil. It has a refrigerator taste to it. Limited seating.
Fried chicken was good. It is a Korean style fried chicken, very well fried. Also tried Nagasaki Jjam Bbong. It was also good, too.

I love this place. The Korean hotdogs are great and from ones I’ve tried in the area they have my favorite. My other go to is their wings super crunchy and the sauce is amazing. Usually get it as take out but plan to dine in and try more dishes soon. This is a great spot!

You’ve really got to try the Korean Fried Chicken and Corndogs “hotdogs”. This place was the best date night we’ve had in awhile. Our waitress was warm and wonderful. We’ll absolutely be back, the only trouble is we want to try the whole menu but everything we got was TOO good. From best of the best to best: KFC, hotdogs, mandu, seasoned rice balls and spicy noodles.
Kid-friendliness: The street in front of the restaurant was blocked off with room to run and a designated play area with fun building blocks.

Best tteokbokki I’ve had, and I’ve tried a lot. I’ve never been able to find tteokbokki made the way I like it (they all tend to taste just like watery gochujang). I tried the truffle fries and the rose tteokbokki, and they were both very flavorful and well-seasoned. The rice cakes in the rose tteokbokki were fresh and chewy, and the bacon and sausage were delicious and a nice touch. The sauce was a good consistency—not too thick or watery. It had a slight smokiness from the meats. I personally love a bunch of green onion in my tteokbokki, so I would have loved more, but they gave a decent amount. The amount given for the price was fair; it was quite filling, even though I always eat a lot. The truffle fries are delicious as well; they have a great texture (crispy outside and fluffy inside) and are seasoned well. They come out VERY hot! I also appreciate that they give small metal dishes along with the food so you can portion it out to share or cool down. The atmosphere is casual and cozy, though it can feel a bit cramped since it is small and often busy. Expect to wait outside for a table to open up. They play K-pop music. I really like that they are open late. I will definitely come back here again. Looking forward to trying the bossam sometime. Never had it before, but it looks yummy. I came back a second time the following day for the rose tteokbokki again, and the waitress remembered me.
