About Doma

Doma brings late-night Seoul pocha energy to Melbourne CBD, running until 1 AM with hearty group feasts and icy bottles of soju. Diners gather around bubbling hot pots and platters of fried chicken dusted in snowing cheese or sweet chili. Tables roll their own DIY rice balls packed with fish roe, seaweed, and mayo—the go-to foil for spicy braised beef ribs and sizzling chicken feet. Refillable banchan keeps pace alongside bowls of savory pork stew and cold glasses of makgeolli.

  • Late-Night Pocha Feast: Serving shared hotpots, spicy anju, and drinks until 1 AM in the CBD.
  • Interactive DIY Tables: Hand-rolled spam or fish roe rice balls and stir-fries mixed right at the table.
  • Korean Fried Chicken: Crispy double-coatings ranging from snowing cheese to sweet chili and soy garlic.

  • Crisp, Juicy Korean Fried Chicken

    Doma crafts signature fried chicken prepared with varied sweet chili, honey soy, and sour cream coatings that stay crispy outside and juicy inside.

    I still dream of Doma’s Sour Cream Fried Chicken every day. Sooo good ❤️ — crispy outside and juicy inside.
