KongDog Korean Restaurant / Kong Pocha 분식/포차

If you want a unique treat that is both comforting and hearty, this is the place for you. The Korean corn dogs are heavenly, and there are plenty of options to customize them into the treat of your dreams (including for vegetarians). While the restaurant itself has changed gears a little and turned into a sit down restaurant with a full menu, you can still ask for the corn dog menu and order the corn dogs online for pickup and delivery. Underrated spot in Davis Square!

Absolutely loved this place! The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding — everyone was so friendly and welcoming. It is the perfect spot to hang out with friends and enjoy great Korean comfort food. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a fun and tasty experience!

A bit overpriced. It’s cheap food, nothing crazy high quality, but it’s expensive. Tastes good though cuz there’s no way you’re messing up a fried corn dog. Took a while to come out which is annoying cuz it’s just a corn dog. But again, was gas🔥🔥I don’t like how you have to pay extra for so many small add ons for the corn dog… cheese is extra. Potato’s are extra. Sauce is extra.

Kong Dog Somerville should be shut down. On 7/31/2025 I came in with a friend for lunch. I paid $10 for a sweet potato corn dog and $7.99 for dumplings in a dining room that was filthy — the floor hadn’t been swept, and the straws weren’t wrapped. Our waitress, an Asian woman in her 20s, barely served us. She just stared from across the room, which was creepy and unprofessional. I still left a $1.50 tip, which I thought was fair considering how little she actually did. As I was leaving, she told me, “Next time you should use the kiosk, it doesn’t require a tip.” That is one of the rudest things I’ve ever heard from someone in customer service. We came back on 9/8/2025 because my friend wanted to try again. The same waitress greeted us with, “Are you sure you want a table?” which immediately set the tone. We spent $55 this time and got instant Neoguri noodles passed off as ramen for $16, with an overboiled egg and fake calamari. She forgot the egg in the first place and then acted annoyed when I asked about it. She also made a strange comment to my friend like, “I’m glad you’re in a better mood than last time,” which is out of line for any server to say. And, once again, she stood across the room watching us, whispering with the cook — who I can only assume is her father — while both of them kept throwing glances our way. I tried to leave a $7 tip this time, and the waitress wouldn’t even accept it. The way she refused it felt like a slap in the face, basically saying, “keep your money, you clearly need it.” That kind of attitude is disgusting in any business, let alone one that’s already cutting corners and serving garbage food in a dirty space. This wasn’t just bad service, it was hostile. The food is cheap, the atmosphere is gross, and the staff goes out of their way to make you feel unwelcome. It’s no surprise the place was dead. Kong Dog Somerville isn’t a restaurant, it’s a scam.

A nice little spot to grab soju and junk food with a friend. Cool atmosphere at night and great selection of Korean music. No other place quite like it around. Can’t go wrong with a couple bottles of soju, Kong fries and some tappeokki.
