    Very good food, rich flavors and variety. However service was slow, some key items from the menu weren't avaliable (corn dogs, the best soju cocktails, etc). Restaurant was quite empty.

    This was a true find in the neighborhood. Wonderful flavorful, Korean dishes. We can’t wait to go back and explore the menu further!

    The service is very nice and the environment as well. The food is more less. They don’t have Korean bbq. The starters are really good: chicken and vegetable dumplings, Korean vegetable pancake and spring rolls. Bolgogi not that great is ok with udon and jap chei also ok. Korean fried chicken with sweet and chilli has a weird taste. Korean fried chicken with garlic is good. Rice has no flavor. Overall average, wouldn’t come back only for the karaoke experience.

    Not at the same level as the original restaurant in Baixa, needs some improvement particularly on service.

    For me it was a fair experience, the food was good, the price was good, and the place was nice and clean. Also it was quiet in the day we were. The food was a bit too spice though, if you don't like it too much, I suggest to don't forget to warn them like I did hehe

    I had a great evening at Soju Pocha for my birthday with a total of 11 guests. The food was great, the service was great and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The place is very spacious, so we could get a big table and the atmosphere was really great. Thank you!

    The taste of the food here is identical to the other branches and I love their food. Always a craving satisfied with Soju Pocha!

    Unfortunately, a poor experience. Booked via the Fork with 30% discount. We were excited to give it a try as we love their restaurant that’s in Bairro Alto. Ordered beef bulgogi and kimchi jigae, were served with a bulgogi and different plate with kimchi. Mistakes happen. They rushed to correct the order, and I had to wait for my kimchi jigae and eat separately with my friend. Asked for the bill and we were informed that my plate had a 60% discount instead of 30% due to the server’s mistake. Of course we accepted it but tipped the server to only find out at home that mochi were added to the bill that we not only didn’t order, but didn’t even receive. We can tolerate honest mistakes of servers and try to tip and support with words of encouragements if they screw up, but we can’t stand being ripped off. Won’t visit this branch again, and it’s a shame, because we live in the neighborhood and thought we wouldn’t need to go to Bairro Alto for Korean food anymore.

    We were looking forward to spicy boneless chicken and it wasn't available last night. But it didn't destroy our night. We got the spicy dose we were really in need with another chicken option from the menu combined with their kimchi that we like a lot and some soju. It helped us relieve our stress last night :)

    It was not my first time visiting this place, i really really enjoy the food! But this time, the bulgogi was not tender (it was quite hard), and the pancake was a little burned. A shame. But hoping it was just this time!

    the food was amazing but there was no heating in the restaurant - for the price you pay and considering it’s January, this is a bit unprofessional :(

    we loved the kimchi :-) but that was about it😅 the food looked amazing and then the taste didn’t even come close… everything was bland :-( especially the kimchi fried rice, it tasted like nothing. idk if we ordered the “wrong” things or came at a bad time but… it shouldn’t be like that the place itself also doesn’t look the best tbh, we sat by a weird open kitchen/pantry (???) that had no use besides storing cutlery and napkins. also the place was COLD! it was a cold night and they had no type of heating going on, the people from the table across from us had to wear their puffer jackets while eating!!!! which is so uncomfortable! the waiter was very friendly though :)

    The food is amazing. Spicy soup is a comfort food in the winter. Unfortunately the heating system doesn't working because they are still under maintenance.

    Delicious food, good size portions, great service, reasonably priced. Waitress - Maria - went the extra mile and packaged dishes we didn't eat (because we'd ordered too much!) to take home. Will definitely be returning.
