Data as of 2026-09-27 · Published 2026-09-29 · Compiled by Gilpost

A minari restaurant on the ground floor of a building on Maeyeong-ro in Yeongtong, Suwon, across from Kyung Hee University's international campus. The menu splits in two: minari shabu with kalguksu, simmered in a pot, and a mountain of duck brisket grilled on a hot stone. Either way, the minari and vegetables at the self-service bar are unlimited and free — and because they are, each person must order a dish. One shabu portion carries three courses: beef, then green minari noodles, then fried rice or porridge — and the rice and porridge are refillable too. It opened on 19 March 2025. What we read runs from two days after that to September 2026, a year and a half. We separated the branches. Five of the thirty confirmed posts were about the Ingye branch of the same chain — different address, phone, hours and parking. One writer says plainly that she had meant to come here but it was a Tuesday, so she went to the branch that opens daily instead. Another, comparing this place with a third branch she had tried, writes that the difference between branches is severe. This page describes Yeongtong only.

The basics

When it opens

Of 18 posts: 6 wrote 11:30–21:30, 3 wrote Daily 11:30–21:30.

The values differ, but the periods they were written in do not overlap. This looks like a change over time rather than a disagreement, and the top row is the most recently reported. We did not confirm it with the restaurant.

What people order

The most ordered dish is self bar (셀프바 (미나리·야채 무한리필)) — 24 of 22 posts.

The prices here are what bloggers wrote down in their posts, and they may have changed since. Check Naver Place for the current menu and prices. This list is not a menu board — it counts what bloggers actually ordered and ate. Check on Naver Place

• 셀프바 (미나리·야채 무한리필)24 ate it
  self bar

  **This is what people come for**, and all twenty-four posts say so: minari, bean sprouts, pak choi, cabbage, enoki, oyster mushrooms, soybean sprouts, plus broth, sauces and white kimchi, all free to fetch. Three note that **the chilli sauce lives only at the bar.** A sign in the room says the minari comes in from farms the same day; six writers repeat it.

  **Because it is unlimited, one dish per person is the rule** — two writers say so, one of them wishing she had known beforehand. Two remark that the bar was not the mess such bars often are, and one watched a member of staff tidying it repeatedly. **The fried rice and the porridge are unlimited too**, by four accounts — one writer notes you can keep asking for more porridge if you are still hungry.

• 볶음밥 · 죽 (마무리)18 ate it
  bokkeumbap juk₩3,000

  **The third and last course**, which you cook yourself. With the shabu it is included and **refillable**; with the duck it is a separate ₩3,000. The same ingredients make **porridge instead** — four writers chose that.

  Three describe what arrives — rice, egg, seaweed, kimchi, vegetables — one comparing it favourably with the usual bare kimchi-and-seaweed. **A child's portion can be arranged.** One writer asked for one without the spicy seasoning, off-menu, and cooked the child's batch first.

• 미나리 생면 칼국수12 ate it
  minari kalguksu

  The **second course**, dropped into what is left of the broth and included in the price. **The noodles are green** — fresh noodles made with minari, by four accounts.

  Five writers say the noodles hold their bite. One reports that her child, who normally refuses noodles cooked in a shabu pot, demanded more of these. The instructions on the table say to top up with broth from the bar and cook six minutes on a medium flame.

• 반반샤브 (맑은 + 얼큰)10 ate it
  banban shabu₩15,000 · ₩15,900

  **A divided pot with both broths**, about a thousand won more than a single one. Of the fourteen who ordered the shabu, **ten took this.**

  **Two reasons people take it.** One is mixed company — one writer wanted the hot broth and her mother did not, so nobody had to argue. The other is to **split the two courses that follow**: two writers recommend the noodles in the red broth and the fried rice in the clear one, and a third preferred the noodles in the spicy and the porridge in the clear. ₩15,000 in March 2025; ₩15,900 in posts from October and November of that year.

• 산더미 오리차돌 돌판구이8 ate it
  sandeomi ori chadol₩15,000 · ₩16,000

  The other half of the menu. **Thin duck brisket on a hot stone plate under a mountain of minari**, slid on by a member of staff. **Salt, soy or spicy** — you pick. The self-service vegetables are unlimited here too, but the fried rice at the end is ₩3,000 extra (with the shabu it is included).

  The line that recurs: the duck fat runs, the minari goes on top and barely wilts, and its scent cuts the fat. One writer notes there is no gaminess at all; two say the 'spicy' is not very. ₩16,000 in October 2025, ₩32,000 for two in July 2026, and ₩15,000 in September 2026 — **whether that is a cut or a difference in how it is written up, we could not tell.**

• 미나리전6 ate it
  minarijeon₩9,000

  The side dish these writers push hardest — order it, order two, you would have regretted skipping it.

  Barely any batter, almost all greens, and fried crisp enough that one writer reaches for a word stronger than crisp; another calls it closer to a fritter. **It takes about ten minutes.** Two writers were told at the counter that this and the dumplings are made to order and to be patient.

• 파김치6 ate it
  pa-kimchi₩2,000

  **It comes with the meal, and you can buy more for ₩2,000.** Three writers list it with pickled radish and water kimchi, and note that these three are not at the self-service bar — **you ask a member of staff.**

  Five writers single it out — well seasoned, ripe enough, a match for the duck; one man is described as having become an addict. The writer who paid the ₩2,000 called it two thousand won of happiness and better than a ₩6,000 kimchi she had bought elsewhere the day before. **But one post (February 2026) states that no side dishes come with the meal and you should use the self-service bar.** We record the disagreement as it stands.

• 미나리샤브칼국수 (육수 하나)4 ate it
  minari shabu kalguksu₩14,000 · ₩14,900

  The house basic. **Choose one broth — clear or spicy** — and one portion brings beef, the green minari noodles for the kalguksu course, and the rice to fry at the end. **The vegetables and minari at the self-service bar are unlimited.** The beef comes as chuck and belly; one writer says you can ask for chuck only. A child's portion (8–13) is ₩9,000.

  **The price has risen.** A post from the opening month, March 2025, says ₩14,000; posts from October 2025 through February 2026 say ₩14,900. On weekdays between 11.30 and 2 there is a **lunch version**, which one writer was told is the same dish a thousand won cheaper. Which broth is better divides them: one says the clear one is where the minari really comes through, one found the spicy one oddly flat, and a third found it gently hot and clean.

• 미나리 쟁반막국수3 ate it
  minari jaengban makguksu₩13,000

  The cold one: buckwheat noodles under minari and vegetables, served on a tray **with a glove for tossing it.** Two posts mention a soup version sold over the summer

  **It is what people order alongside the duck** — a slice of grilled duck on a forkful of noodles, twice described. One praises the sharp cold dressing as a reset between mouthfuls; another, on the soup version, thought it would serve the morning after

• 만두1 ate it
  mandu

  **Two come free if you write a Naver review** — three posts say so, two of them offering the alternative of 75g of beef. No post gives a price

  Only one writer paid for them, and says only that she preferred the minari pancake. **Like the pancake, they are made to order**

• 미나리 냉삼겹살1 ate it
  minari naengsam₩13,000

  Apparently new in the summer of 2026 — one writer, in June, went straight there on hearing it had arrived. **The vegetables are unlimited with it too**

  The one writer who had it rated the pork and the vegetables well and liked that thin cold-sliced belly cooks fast; she also mentions the soybean stew. She was told **it is the evening order here**

• 미나리 감자채전1 ate it
  minari gamjachae-jeon₩9,000

  The potato version, which a July 2026 post takes to be new

  The one writer who ate it thought it good value and liked the minari coming through the crisp potato. **It too takes a while**, she warns

• 미나리 냉수육named in 1
  minari naengsuyuk₩19,000

  One post copies it off the menu board

  **Nobody in what we read has eaten it.** Beyond the price, ₩19,000, we know nothing about it

Parking

14 posts say you can park. None say you cannot.

There is a car park in the building and it is free with a meal — the second and third floors above ground, by two accounts. Four call it roomy: plenty of spaces, nothing to worry about. Finding it is the hard part, and that is the real story here. The entrance is on the far side of the building from the restaurant, tucked into an alley between shops and easy to miss. Three writers tell you to search a navigation app for the car park by name rather than the restaurant. One lost her signal nearby and drove a full lap looking for it; another found the entrance blocked by a lorry and parked out front instead. Two mention that the street outside will do.

Who came, and with whom

Getting there

Naver Map has a full English mode — Settings → Language → English. In Korea it gives better walking and transit directions than Google Maps.

Getting inside

If you are bringing a pushchair, read this line. One writer, there with her baby, notes of the way down from the car park: it is stairs, so those with pushchairs should be aware. The car park is on the second and third floors and the restaurant on the ground, so this appears to mean the internal route down is stepped. That is the whole of what we know about access. No post mentions a threshold, a ramp, a lift or a wheelchair, and even this line was written as directions rather than as an answer. What the front entrance is like, we do not know.

No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Toilet inside · 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 23 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.

When the posts appeared

What we do not know

• The hours changed; they are not in dispute. Every 2025 post says 11 to 10, last orders at 9, and not one mentions an afternoon break. Every 2026 post says 11.30 to 9.30, last orders at 8.30, with a break from three. One post from November 2025, in between, splits the week: 9.30 on weekdays, 10 at weekends. Three writers say the break is weekdays only — but they disagree about when it ends, 4.30 or 5 (the two April 2026 posts say five). Worth checking before you go. On the Tuesday closing, twelve posts agree. One notes that for a month in July 2026 it closed Wednesdays too, and there was a two-day closure over the autumn holiday. And it closes early when the greens run out — the minari comes in fresh each day, one post explains.
• A lot of the writing about this place was paid for. Of twenty-four posts, five declare sponsorship or a tasting invitation — four with a tag at the end, one saying so in the text — and three state that they paid. The remaining sixteen say nothing at all. Some of those sixteen read like the sponsored ones: the room, then the parking, then the menu, then a verdict, with nothing that went wrong. We count only what is declared. But the reader should know why the praise here is so uniform. The complaints are countable on one hand: one writer found the spicy broth oddly flat; one states that no side dishes come with the meal, where five others describe spring-onion kimchi, pickled radish and water kimchi arriving as a matter of course; and one drove a lap of the block looking for the car park. The Michelin listing is not this restaurant's. Three posts describe it as a sibling brand of a Seoul restaurant that made the 2025 guide — and that restaurant, not this one, is the one listed. (One post says two years running, so even the count differs.)
• Not one writer describes the lavatory from having seen it. The words 'separate men's and women's' appear once, lifted from Naver's facilities list. Where it is, whether it is inside the restaurant or out in the building, nobody says. On queueing we know almost nothing either. One writer says lunchtime fills up enough that there is a wait; another says she had heard as much but, arriving slightly off the hour, sat straight down. Nobody in these posts actually queued — no one gives a waiting time. Two advise leaving yourself some room around lunch.
• The restaurant is at street level and the car park is on the second and third floors, so you come down to it. Only two writers say so in their own words: one sees the sign as they come down to the ground floor after parking, the other advises searching for the building by name because it puts you right by the ground-floor entrance. Twenty-three of the twenty-four posts contain the words 'Haengnim Building, ground floor', but in the rest it is the address line Naver's check-in card prints by itself. One post describes the way down — 'you can get there by the stairs, worth knowing if you have a pushchair.' Not one mentions a lift.
• Almost nobody writes down how to get here without a car. Eleven posts tag it a 'Yeongtong Station restaurant' in the title or the hashtags, but that is a search term, not a direction. Four put a number on it and the four do not agree: two give 580m from exit 2 of Yeongtong Station — both inside a copied information block — one makes it two minutes from the station by car, and one ten minutes on foot from the station, three from the university gate. A single post mentions a bus, with no route and no stop: 'for anyone on public transport, the bus stop is close by.' Nobody writes about arriving by train or by taxi.
