" Had a lovely dinner with friends at Hanshin Pocha! The army stew was a generous portion and tasted great. The environment was friendly, but the wait for seats can be a bit long, especially on weekends. Our server was dawdling but attentive enough. I still appreciate their effort to provide quality food. Would come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious authentic Korean food! I really enjoyed the seafood pancake, but I found the portion to be a bit small for the price. The atmosphere was vibrant, filled with laughter and chatter. However, service was a bit slow during peak hours, impacting the overall experience. I plan to give this place another try for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Hanshin Pocha was mostly memorable, but it wasn't without its flaws. First, the lovely ambiance and upbeat music created a fun atmosphere. The highlight was definitely the assorted side dishes that came with our meal; they were fresh and delightful. However, I felt that the service was somewhat slow, particularly when we were waiting for our drinks. Despite this, the food was delicious, and the portions were quite generous. I ordered the beef bulgogi and it was flavor-packed! I would say if you have the time to enjoy the food and environment, this is a must-visit! I look forward to trying more dishes in the future.

" Delightful experience at Hanshin Pocha! The homemade cakes were delicious and the complimentary fish cakes at the start were a nice surprise. The beef bibimbap was quite authentic and packed with ingredients, but I wish it came with more kimchi. The overall vibe was busy but enjoyable, and I would return in a heartbeat for the authentic feel! " (*Curated Review*)

" Superb! The moment we walked in, we were greeted with the warmth typical of a good Korean pub. I loved the spontaneous vibe with people chatting. The kimchi stew was unexpectedly mind-blowing; spices were just right and very comforting. Service was on the slower side, but the food more than made up for it. I recommend the spicy chicken wings for those who like a challenge! I left feeling fulfilled and happy. " (*Curated Review*)

" A friend recommended Hanshin Pocha, and I'm so glad I went! The food is unbelievably satisfying and the atmosphere feels like home! I had the kimchi stew and fried dumplings which were both delicious. The service was great—very friendly and attentive. This place is definitely worth a visit if you love authentic Korean food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Hanshin Pocha with high expectations, and it delivered! The katsu was juicy and well-seasoned. I also loved the spicy squid! Service was efficient despite the crowd. However, I was a bit let down by the portion size of the rice; I felt it could have been slightly more generous. Nonetheless, I would definitely recommend this place to my friends!
