Short answer
The Kong Pocha menu is built for sharing, so a first order usually combines fried chicken, one starter, a stew and rice. Groups of three or four can look at the family-style casseroles instead.
The Kong Pocha menu is easiest to approach as a shared meal: fried chicken for the table, a starter or pancake, a hot stew and rice for anyone who wants a bowl to themselves. Kong Pocha is a Korean pocha-style restaurant at 12 W 20th St in Baltimore, and this page is an independent guide to ordering there. It takes no orders and is not run by the restaurant.
What are the best-known dishes at Kong Pocha?
The Baltimore Banner (May 2025) describes the restaurant as a sit-down Korean place whose best-known dish is Korean fried chicken. The same article mentions army soup, spicy pork, tofu and clam soup, curry omelet rice, kimchi pancake and bulgogi. On the Uber Eats page, the items shown as top sellers include the Kongbination rice box, Curry Omurice, Kongdak Kongdak fried chicken and Sundubu Jigae soft tofu soup.
Those are the safest anchors for a first order, because both a newspaper and an ordering app point at them.
What is a simple first order for two?
Pick one dish from each of three groups: something fried, something hot and brothy, and something small to nibble on while you wait. This is one way to do it, with prices as read on the ordering pages.
| Dish | Price | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Kongdak Kongdak | $25.99 | Boneless fried chicken |
| Sundubu Jigae | $16.99 | Spicy soft tofu soup |
| Corn Cheese | $9.99 | Grilled corn topped with melted mozzarella |
| Kimchi Jeon | $18.99 | Korean kimchi pancake |
Chicken, soup and corn cheese make a balanced table. Swap the corn cheese for the kimchi pancake if you want something crisper and more savory to share.
What should a group of three or four order?
The family-style section is aimed at groups. Budae Jungol is $48.99 and is described as a spicy army-stew style casserole with ham, sausage, baked beans, kimchi and vegetables. Jjamppong Jungol and Seafood Odeng Casserole are also $48.99, and Sogogibusut Jungol is $49.99. The ordering page says each pot feeds two to three people.
A casserole plus a plate of fried chicken and a pancake is a full table for four. If your group is larger, add a second pot rather than many small plates.
What if you want a bowl to yourself?
The rice section is the answer for solo diners or for people who do not want to share.
- Kongbination (Rice box), $19.99: a rice box that a 2023 campus newspaper review describes as combining fried chicken, bulgogi, greens and a fried egg.
- Curry Omurice, $18.99: curry-style rice with an omelet.
- Kimchi Fried Rice, $17.99: fried rice with kimchi.
- Dolsot Bibimbap, $14.99: bibimbap in a hot stone pot.
- Bulgogi Cup Bap, $14.99: a rice bowl with marinated bulgogi.
A solo order of a cup bap or bibimbap is the cheapest full meal on the readable part of the menu.
Where do these prices come from, and what is missing?
All prices come from the Uber Eats and Postmates ordering pages for the restaurant, read on 11 November 2026. They are delivery-app prices and can differ from what you pay in the restaurant. Only the Featured, Bundles, Family Style, Appetizers and Soups sections were readable, so some sections of the full menu, including entrees and barbecue, could not be checked.
Several items from an older third-party listing have no confirmed price: Kong-Pocha Chicken (bone-in fried chicken), Galbi-Tang, Jjajangmyeon, Jjamppong and the grilling cuts Samgyeopsal and Mocksal. Ask the restaurant about those before you plan around them.
For the whole list see the menu page, and check the hours and location page before you go, since the restaurant opens at 4 PM and is closed on Tuesday.
