About Pokkoi Kitchen

Pokkoi Kitchen serves punchy modern Asian fusion plates tucked discreetly off the Marine Parade strip in Cooley. Diners crowd the covered outdoor tables for the signature wagyu rendang donuts—flaky, crisp pastry packed with tender, richly spiced beef. Small plates anchor the table, from kingfish ceviche to chargrilled barramundi belly and red duck curry, before the meal winds down over chilled pours of housemade limoncello.

  • Savory Wagyu Rendang Donuts: Flaky, crisp pastry stuffed with tender spiced wagyu beef anchors the share-plate starters.
  • Relaxed Outdoor Seating: Covered open-air dining welcomes casual social get-togethers and dogs just off Marine Parade.
  • Housemade Limoncello: House-crafted Italian citrus liqueur rounds out the cocktail and drinks lineup.

Why Dine at Pokkoi Kitchen

Inventive modern Asian fusion, savory signature bites, and heartfelt coastal hospitality in Coolangatta.

  • Signature Wagyu Rendang Donuts

    Pokkoi Kitchen crafts a distinct savory signature by pairing slow-braised beef rendang inside a crisp, flaky doughnut pastry.

    I loved the wagyu donuts, the filling was flavoursome and tender and the outside was crisp and flaky.

  • Multi-Course Tasting Journeys

    Tasting courses and sharing menus showcase fresh regional seafood, inventive kingfish bites, and rich curries with aromatic Thai spices.

    We had the 10 course meal, samples of everything. Everything was delicious.

  • Personal Chef and Staff Hospitality

    Warm floor staff and personal table visits from the chef provide attentive dish guidance and exceptional hospitality.

    He even took the time to come to our table and explain each dish — such a kind and genuine gesture!

  • Housemade Citrus Limoncello

    An unconventional house-crafted Italian citrus liqueur provides a refreshing digestif finish to an Asian fusion meal.

    Their house made Limoncello is light and delightful; just as good as or better than the typical Italian ones.

  • Covered Dog-Friendly Alfresco Dining

    A sheltered outdoor patio welcomes diners looking for a relaxed, casual meal without formal dining restrictions, welcoming pets too.

    We were also able to have our dog with us in the outdoor seating.

Before you head over

Insider recommendations on arrival timing, finding the entrance, and navigating heat levels

  • Aim for an earlier dinner sitting

    Locals advise booking around 6:30 PM rather than later in the evening, as dining winds down early in Coolangatta and restaurants begin packing up toward 8:30 PM.

  • Check spice levels on curry dishes

    The kitchen's curries pack authentic heat—especially the barramundi curry—so check in with the team or ask for spice adjustments if you prefer milder seasoning.

  • Spot the arcade entrance behind Marine Parade

    Tucked away off Marine Parade behind the corner Greek eatery without direct street views, look carefully through the arcade setting to find the entrance.
