Reviews
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Plucky's Korean Fried Chicken in Sea Point, and it was nothing short of a remarkable experience. From the delectable food to the inviting atmosphere and the genuinely friendly staff, this establishment sets a high standard in the culinary scene.
Let's start with the star of the show: the Korean fried chicken burgers. It was, without a doubt, a flavor explosion. The chicken was fresh, warm, and prepared to perfection. Each bite was a delightful mix of crispy and tender, and the bold Korean spices were a true delight for the taste buds. What truly stood out was the portion size – it was not only delicious but incredibly filling. Plucky's certainly doesn't skimp on serving up a hearty meal.
Now, let's talk about the boba, which was an unexpected delight. The drinks were refreshing, and the boba pearls had just the right texture and sweetness. They were the perfect complement to the meal.
The atmosphere at Plucky's is also something worth mentioning. The vibe is inviting and relaxed, making it an ideal place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The restaurant's cleanliness and warm ambiance added to the overall experience, making it an enjoyable place to dine.
However, what truly sets Plucky's apart is its exceptional staff. They provided honest recommendations and were a pleasure to interact with. Their pleasant and welcoming attitude enhanced our overall dining experience, and it's clear that they take pride in providing top-notch customer service.

I'm still dreaming of the Bao buns, so good! It's like drizzled with Korean sauce, seeds & fresh produce they make all things even better. I sampled the combo, what delicious fun. The food is no doubt amazing but effort needs to be placed on customer experience. There is no follow between ordering & reading the menu & waiting. It would make sense to have a bigger displayed menu to the left of the order counter so that people don't have to bunch up.
The staff try but the lady taking our orders was interrupted several times by other staff & we kept having to go over my order. It was busy & the wait was not bad at all. When is the restaurant with tapas menu opening? 😄

Located next to the Nando’s on main road. Look for the cat mural!
Interesting little korean place, with limited seating but a fairly extensive menu.
My kimchi wrap (R95) was a generous size and very tasty. I will definitely go back and check out the rest of the menu.

Love this place, food and service excellent always!
Been many times, and will continue to visit.
One concern I do have, is that I think staff could wear gloves when handling foods such as kimchi or anything else really. I witnessed a cook squeeze the kimchi with her hands (without wearing any gloves).
Other than that, this place never ever disappoints. Can’t wait for our next visit.

I recently visited Plucky’s, a halal Korean restaurant in Mojo Market. I purchased a Wikideal, which included 2 burgers, 2 sides, 2 gourmet milkshakes, and dessert. The food was delicious with creative presentation, and the portions were large with additional sauce provided. The staff were friendly and attentive. I definitely recommend this place.
Mojo Market was a vibe, featuring a DJ and live music at a comfortable volume. Cleaning was done promptly and there was ample seating. Overall, a fantastic experience!
