Recently, I visited Pohang to treat my beloved family to some special seafood. The first place that came to mind for crab was the famous Minam Pocha, located near Yeongil Bay.

As I strolled along the beach, the soothing sound of the waves and the refreshing sea breeze revitalized my spirit.

1. Location & Address of Minam Pocha

Minam Pocha is conveniently located right in front of Yeongildae Beach, making it very easy to find. The row of restaurants in the area filled the air with a delightful sea scent, enhancing the atmosphere. Thanks to its distinctive signage, I was able to locate it without any trouble.

Before heading to Minam Pocha, I checked reviews and was drawn to their reasonably priced crab course menu. The generous offerings included steamed crab, sashimi, fresh shrimp, and water-based dishes, making it perfect for trying various foods with family.

The restaurant features comfortable seating areas where guests can sit on the floor without shoes, creating a private and cozy dining experience. The cleanliness of the establishment made it an excellent choice for family outings.

Outside the entrance, there are warm and inviting outdoor tables, beautifully decorated like a street vendor, giving a friendly and relaxed vibe. I especially appreciated that dogs were welcome.

2. The Special Course Menu

As I sat down and examined the menu, I found a variety of seafood options, including live fish and crab dishes. Since it was my first visit, I decided to order the special course to sample multiple dishes. Shortly after, an impressive array of food arrived, exceeding my expectations.

The first dish that captivated my taste buds was the marinated crab. The enticing aroma of sweet and salty flavors was irresistible. Biting into the juicy crab meat released a rich and delightful taste.

Next, a refreshing jellyfish salad filled the table. It was clean and had a delightful crunch, pairing perfectly with the other dishes, especially the addictive sweet and sour sauce.

3. Lobster Cheese Butter Grill

The beautifully grilled lobster with cheese and butter was a sight to behold. The rich aroma of butter and deep cheese heightened my appetite. The tender lobster meat, combined with melted cheese, created a savory sensation.

Enjoying it while warm, the cheese stretched perfectly, and the lobster's texture was satisfying. The main course featured a platter of fresh shrimp, lobster, and crab sashimi, each with distinct flavors and textures, keeping my interest high throughout the meal.

4. Sashimi Platter

The sashimi platter was a feast for the eyes, with glistening slices arranged beautifully. Each type of fish offered a delicate flavor, showcasing the quality of the ingredients used. The taste lingered pleasantly in my mouth.

For a lighter taste, I opted for wasabi soy sauce, enhancing the original flavors of the sashimi. Even when dipped in spicy sauce, the freshness remained, allowing me to enjoy the variety without getting bored.

5. Steamed Crab

Finally, the star of the meal, steamed crab, was served. The vibrant red crab, filled with meat, was visually stunning, and its moist, glistening flesh was irresistible. The sweet aroma of crab meat left a lasting impression.

The reasonable prices were another significant advantage, as the crab was prepped for easy eating. Each bite of the tender, sweet crab meat was a delight, especially when dipped in soy sauce.

6. Fresh Shrimp Sashimi

The fresh shrimp sashimi was another highlight. The shrimp's bright appearance showcased its freshness. As soon as I tasted it, the sweet flavor burst in my mouth.

Finally, the crab fried rice, presented in a beautifully decorated crab shell, was rich in flavor without any fishy taste. The essence of crab blended perfectly with the rice, creating a delightful experience.

To wrap up the meal, the spicy soup offered a refreshing finish, making me crave soju. The flavors deepened with each boil, leaving me impressed.

At Minam Pocha in Pohang, I enjoyed fresh crab and a variety of seafood dishes, all at reasonable prices. It was a memorable meal that left my family completely satisfied.
