Data as of · Published ·
Sodamchon's Anyang branch is an all-you-can-eat rice-paper-roll and shabu-shabu restaurant on the second floor of the Daedong Bookstore building — the old Bon department store — in the Anyang Ilbeonga district, right by Anyang station. You order one thing, the set, and choose your meat (standard, wagyu, mushroom, water dropwort, Korean beef, or seafood-and-beef) and your broth (mild, spicy, or half and half). Everything else — the vegetables, the roll fillings, the dumplings and noodles, the side dishes, the cold radish noodles, the bread — comes free and without limit from the self-service bar. The standard set is ₩15,900 at weekday lunch and ₩18,900 evenings and weekends (2026), and children not yet at school eat free. Open daily, eleven to nine. Two things set it apart: a cafe you use after paying, where the coffee, tea and ice cream cost nothing, and a meat coupon for your next visit if you leave nothing on the table. There is a separate room at the back where children watch cartoons.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.
These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go.

What sets it apart
- The bar is the restaurant. What arrives at your table is the meat, the broth, the rice paper and four sauces — nothing else. Fourteen writers describe refilling, and two counted: three rounds of vegetables, four or five. More broth is available too (four writers). The sauces come to the table in their bottles — one writer, used to walking back and forth for refills, found this a relief. There are crushed peanuts, garlic, chilli, hot green chilli and grated onion to build them with, and four writers note a chart of recommended combinations posted up. What gets recommended most is not the main course but the cold radish noodles — four writers, in four different months, unprompted. They are what to eat while the broth comes to the boil; they are what cuts the richness; the sharp young-radish liquid with the thin wheat noodles is a dish in itself. After that: fish-cake balls studded with sweetcorn (one finds flying-fish roe inside), and steamed white bread — "you would not expect bread at a shabu place." One writer labels the rice cakes: purple is sweet potato, yellow is cheese-and-corn.
- When you have finished and paid, the cafe at one side of the room serves coffee, tea and ice cream at no charge — fourteen writers mention it and all fourteen approve. Filter coffee, iced americano, vending-machine coffee, black tea, peach and pomegranate teas, plum tea, omija, juice; and ice cream in vanilla, strawberry, cookies-and-cream, chocolate and matcha. It has its own tables and air conditioning. What gets praised is the ice cream, not the coffee — five writers. One expected nothing from a cafe inside a restaurant and calls it the best thing there. One expected the icy stuff you get at barbecue places and found something else. One had it twice and says so. A regular records matcha being added in February 2026, and another says the space was enlarged in a refit and now takes groups. Two things to know. First, three writers note it is for after you pay — you cannot fetch it mid-meal. Second, it stays in the building: one relays that it is the owner's gift and may not be taken away. And in February 2025 the coffee alone cost ₩500, while all ten posts from 2026 say it is free — so that appears to have changed in between.
- There is a separate room at the back where children watch cartoons — six writers mention it, under six different names: kids' room, video room, children's theatre, kids' cinema, cartoon cinema, kids' zone. One parent puts its value most briefly: the children play and the adults get to eat at their own pace. It is not always open, though. One writer notes that on a weekday afternoon it was shut, and that she imagined children would enjoy it at weekends. That is our only account of the difference, so if you are bringing a child on a weekday, ring first. There is more on this side. Children not yet at school eat free — one parent brought a seven-year-old and notes, pointedly, that nobody asked twice about her age. The same writer records child tableware: cutlery brought out with the order and a divided tray instead of the usual side plate. Another notes a children's line of tteokbokki, rice balls and a 70g meat add-on. Whether there are high chairs we do not know — one post lists them, but nobody describes using one.
- Clear your table and you are given a meat coupon for next time — five writers. One records how to claim it: say at the till that you have left nothing, and you are handed a coupon for extra meat on your next visit. Another relays it as the house rule for a buffet; a third tells readers to take only what they will finish, and collect. There are only three ways to spend more money here — extra meat at ₩10,000 for 120g, extra water dropwort at ₩3,000, and a mala broth at ₩2,000. The coupon covers the first of them. One writer counts the arithmetic as three wins at once: less waste, a reason to return, less thrown away. How much meat the coupon is worth, and how long it lasts, nobody says.

Parking
8 posts say you can park; 2 say you cannot. We leave the disagreement standing rather than picking a side.
| Posts saying you can park | 8 of 21 posts |
|---|---|
| Posts saying you cannot | 2 of 21 posts |
The posts contradict each other outright — eight say there is parking, two say there is none. And the reason for the split is written down. All eight who say yes use the same phrase: mechanical parking in the building — a car stacker. The two who say no write: that Naver lists parking but she could not actually park in the building, and that readers should look up a public car park beforehand (September 2026); and that she drove, found no car park, and used the public one (May 2026). The thing that divides them is the stacker. Two of the writers who say parking exists avoided it themselves: one because her car is an SUV and would not fit, so she used the public car park by the station and found the walk short; another because the stacker is a nuisance, and recommends parking at Samdeok Park and doing the market on the way — two hours free, she says. So "there is parking" and "I can park my car" are different statements here. With a large car, plan on the station car park or Samdeok Park. The two free hours are one person's word; do not rely on it.

Getting there
Getting inside
| Second floor | 6 of 21 posts |
|---|---|
| Toilet inside | yes 0 · no 1 (of 21 posts read) |
It is on the second floor — and nobody wrote down how you get up there. Five writers place it there in their own words: the second floor of the Daedong Bookstore building; the second floor of what used to be the Bon department store; up to the second floor and the restaurant is right in front of you. The registered address says the same: second floor, part of unit 201, Bon Plaza. Whether that means stairs, a lift or an escalator appears nowhere in twenty-two posts. The nearest thing is one writer's memory of the building as a department store — of the attendants who used to ask which floor you wanted and press the button for you. That is a memory, not an observation. A former department store very likely has a lift, but that is our inference, and we do not print inferences. That it is a commercial block with a bookshop in it is the whole of what we know.
We do not know whether you can get in with a wheelchair or a pushchair. Across twenty-four posts the words for wheelchair, pushchair, ramp, step and lift appear in none of them. We have two facts. First, it is on the second floor — and nobody recorded whether you get there by stairs or by lift. Second, the room is chairs and tables, with eight writers describing generous gaps between them, one noting a party of four was given a six-top. Nobody mentions floor seating. But this is a restaurant you have to walk around to eat in. The vegetables, the starches, the sauces, the noodles and the bread all come from the bar, and fourteen writers describe going back for more. What the route to that bar is like, and whether there is room to move with a plate, nobody looked. That is an absence of evidence, not a no.
The toilet is not inside the restaurant — though only one person says so. One writer, setting out the practical details, records: toilet outside the restaurant, inside the building (July 2026). That single line is the only mention of a toilet in twenty-two posts. Whether men's and women's are separate, whether there is a keypad, whether it is clean — nobody says. A second-floor unit in a commercial block suggests a shared toilet off the corridor, but that is our inference, and we do not print inferences. If you are bringing a child — and this is a restaurant built for that, with a room for them — it is worth knowing the toilet is out of the room.
No one mentioned: In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 22 posts we gathered, 1 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- We set aside three of the twenty-four posts. Two were not about this restaurant at all: one is a restaurant-industry job board, where "Anyang branch" appears once in a list of hundreds of hiring locations; the other describes the same chain's Pyeongchon branch, in a different district on a different floor, and never mentions this one. The third, headed "8 Anyang restaurants worth trying," is a list assembled from searches — our entry runs to four lines of signature dish, features, who it suits and the address, with nobody eating anything — so we dropped it from the count. The twenty-one that remain are twenty-one different people; no one wrote twice. Not one post discloses being paid, and eight say outright that they paid their own way. This restaurant does give things away, though, by design: a meat coupon if you clear your table, and a cafe afterwards that charges nothing. Those are not sponsorship — everyone gets them — so we have counted them separately.
- The bar does empty — three writers land on the same point. One found the bean sprouts gone every time she went back (February 2025, a weekday evening). A party in for a work lunch found it was not being restocked fast enough for the crowd (June 2026). And, from a slightly different angle but the same direction: while the roll vegetables were plentiful, the leaves for the pot came down to cabbage and bean sprouts, which disappointed a writer who had come for vegetables (December 2025). Two of the three draw the same distinction: generous for the rolls, thinner for the pot. The other eighteen call the vegetables fresh, and two note the trays are visibly well kept. All three complaints come from busy times.
- There are queues, but they depend on when you come — six writers found it busy, one found it quiet. Two record waiting: ten minutes on a weekday evening (February 2025), and a long weekend-lunch queue that a booking got them past (April 2026). Four more record a full room: a work lunch party surprised to find a shabu place packed at midday; one who came at the awkward hour of two in the afternoon on a weekday and found it bustling with older customers; one who came before the dinner rush and found it busy anyway; and a regular who says it is always full and was surprised to find space at an odd weekday hour. The one quiet account gives an exact time: a few tables occupied at five on a weekday afternoon, filling up from around six (December 2025). That is our only evidence for the emptiest hour. You can book — two writers did, and a regular advises booking for any family gathering, noting the room takes groups. There is a dedicated waiting area: tables, chairs, and air conditioning strong enough, one writer notes, to make waiting in summer comfortable.
- You walk from Anyang station — though one writer got lost doing it. Four put it close: under five minutes on foot; right by the station at the entrance to the Ilbeonga strip; towards the central crossroads; and, from the woman who parked in the public car park, a short enough walk not to mind. The central market, the Ilbeonga strip and Samdeok Park are all mentioned as nearby. For a first-timer it is not straightforward. One writer, arriving off a packed Line 1 train, got lost at a station she had never used: the map told her to cross the roundabout, there was no crossing, and she eventually found an underpass. "Don't do what I did," she writes (April 2026). Hers is our only account of the underpass, but it means a map alone will walk you into a roundabout. The building itself can be missed — one writer notes there is no large sign outside and that you simply go in through the Daedong Bookstore entrance. The restaurant is on the second floor (five writers say so in their own words). Only one person gives a walking time at all.
- There are two price tiers, and nobody wrote down where the line falls. Weekday lunch runs ₩3,000 to ₩6,400 cheaper than evenings and weekends. The fullest account (July 2026) sets it out: weekday lunch ₩15,900 standard, ₩17,000 wagyu, ₩17,500 mushroom; evenings and weekends ₩18,900, ₩23,000, ₩23,900. Two writers say explicitly that lunch is the bargain. But not one post says when "lunch" ends — neither the writer who came at two in the afternoon nor the one who came at five records a price. If you are planning a weekday visit, ring and ask. Prices have risen. The standard set in the evening went from ₩16,900 (February and December 2025) to ₩18,900 (April 2026 onwards). The ₩15,900 weekday lunch appears in two posts, March and July 2026. And some things we still do not know. One writer lists a Korean-beef set and a seafood-and-beef set on the board; neither has a price and nobody ordered either. We know the mala broth costs ₩2,000 more and nothing about how it tastes. And the posts disagree on how the meal ends — six say rice porridge, four say fried rice. Whether both exist or one replaced the other, we do not know.
