Pollo pollo is a great place for comforting Korean food! The restaurant is small but the inside is nicely decorated with warm lighting. Our servers were also very nice and attentive whenever we needed utensils and takeout boxes.My favorite dish was the cheese corn as it was nice and stretchy and it paired well with the spicy rice cakes and tangy kimchi fried rice. The fried chicken was also crispy and juicy. Definitely coming back!

I'll be honest, if my parents didn't tell me about this place, I would have kept overlooking it. But I'm so glad I know about this place now because it is a great find.This place is open from 11:30am 3pm and 5pm 10pm (11pm on Fridays and Saturdays). Be mindful of that time gap when they're closed because I made that mistake once which was completely my fault.My family and I came right when they opened up for the second half of the day. The interior is nice and cozy with soft ambient lighting, which I am a huge fan of. There is a variety of seating options, with table and booth seating on the either side of the building and a bar like seating with high chairs in the middle of the building.We got a variety of dishes because we wanted to try a little bit of everything. Overall, everything tasted great!Teriyaki Chicken Bowl A nice classic dish with a good ratio of chicken and rice, served with vegetables and pineapple on the side. I love this twist to teriyaki chicken because it balances sweet and savory well, plus the texture of the rice is nice.Spicy Noodle Soup A hearty soup served with noodles, an assortment of seafood, and an assortment of vegetables. The noodles are cooked al dente, and they seem freshly made based on the texture. It's a very good soup, however my spice tolerance isn't great so I struggled to eat it and had to dilute the leftover soup when I got home. However, if your spice tolerance is good, by all means go for this dish!Shrimp Fried Rice Bowl This dish was HEAVENLY my favorite one out of the selection of dishes we ordered. It comes out in a pan, served with an egg and two hash browns on top. The fried rice has a slightly sweet taste that pairs well with the umami of the shrimp. I am absolutely OBSESSED with the crispiness of the hash browns that I could go on about it. A dish I'd definitely recommend getting.Kimchi Fried Rice (not pictured because we got it to go) A great mix of savory, tangy, and spicy. The rice is cooked just right, and seaweed is sprinkled on top as garnish. It also comes with a side of pickled yellow radish and pickled onions and jalapeños which complements the fried rice well.Not only were the dishes great, but service was great as well. Our server was swift whenever we needed extra utensils, more water, etc. Overall I'm very satisfied with my experience here! Totally coming back for that shrimp fried rice and other menu items.

I love eating here. There's a blackout in concord so we were nervous this was going to be closed as well but thankfully not. We decided to try completely different dishes so we could get a better feel of the restaurant and they did not disappoint. The jjamppong was so rich and spicy and was a pretty decent size. The corn cheese was ooey-gooey and went great on top of our chicken. The service was really great. The servers were checking on all the tables making sure they had everything. They were also super accommodating when giving us sauces since we could not decide what flavor chicken we wanted. The chicken was full of crunch. The vibes in here are also pretty solid. It's aesthetic and they play good music.
