Teombeong Songdo Bonjeom

텀벙 송도본점 A monkfish house in Songdo, named for the splash fishermen once made throwing the ugly fish back

Korean · Yeonsu-gu, Songdo-dong

Data as of · Published ·

Teombeong is a monkfish house on the street side of a shopping block beneath an apartment complex by Songdo Central Park. Mul-teombeong is the Incheon word for the fish — the sound it made when fishermen threw it back — and the shop calls itself a monkfish restaurant. The braise comes four ways, by cut and by sauce, with four levels of heat and a separate choice of saltiness, and it ends with fried rice you stir yourself in what is left in the pan. At lunch there is a soup for one; the rest of the day the menu assumes two or more. It appeared on two national television programmes in late 2025, and the writing about it picks up sharply afterwards. The posts we read run from December 2024 to September 2026.

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.

These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go. Place — check hours

What sets it apart

  1. Four levels of heat, and the saltiness is a separate question. The shop hangs a yardstick on each level: one is Shin Ramyun, three is buldak. The yardstick does not travel well. One writer ordered level one and still found it hot; another ordered level three and found it milder than buldak. A regular says she used to take the mildest and now prefers the middle, which she thinks tastes better. You can ask for no heat at all, one post says, and another that people who cannot take chilli are given a tartare sauce instead. One writer was told the kitchen does not use capsaicin extract.
  2. People come back — and the count of posts is not a count of people. One blogger wrote twice, in November 2025 and February 2026, and by the second she was already calling it an nth visit. Four posts are return visits, two of them telling the same story: she kept walking past, kept seeing it full, went in, and now goes regularly. One writer came for the braise and returns for the clear soup. Three first-timers say they will be back; one table says probably not — the one that smelled something off in the roe.
  3. The autographs on the wall became real partway through. A customer in April 2025 noted the signatures of celebrities the owner hoped would come — wishes, pinned up. A customer in December 2025 wrote that the hopeful fakes had been replaced, since the broadcast, with real ones on the outside wall. The broadcast happened in between. By January 2026 a writer is describing photographs with the cast and a guestbook. You can read the shop's year off that one wall.
  4. You may bring your own bottle. Four posts say corkage is free, and one writer actually brought whisky — he had been ringing round Songdo for a place that would let him, and two others turned him down. The menu, as copied into one post, limits it to a single bottle; nobody who went has written about how that is applied in practice. Three tables ordered soju, beer or cheongha at the shop, and two writers had driven and drank nothing.

Parking

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

Posts saying you can park2 of 21 posts

"Parking available" appears often, but nearly always copied. Only two writers looked for themselves: one explains that you go past the shop, turn right, and find the basement car park of the complex, and that you must give your plate number when you pay for the two free hours to apply; the other drove and says only that it was easy. Nobody says what happens after two hours. One post suggests a public car park nearby if you will be longer.

Getting there

Getting inside

Second flooryes 0 · no 5 (of 21 posts read)

Ground floor, facing the road. It takes two units in the block's shopping arcade, and the firm that fitted it says the wall between them was knocked through to make one twenty-four-pyeong room — a fact recorded only in that trade post, by nobody who came to eat. No post mentions stairs or a lift. One writer says you cannot see in from outside and assumed it was shut, which is why, two posts note, a hand-lettered sign on the door says it is open.

Nobody has looked at the doorway. In twenty-two posts the words for step, ramp, kerb, wheelchair and pushchair do not appear once. Several say it is at street level on the ground floor, which is not the same as saying you can get in — and the only description of the entrance comes from the firm that fitted the place out, which put a delivery pickup stand and a second till just inside the door. This is not a no. It is that nobody looked.

Not one line about the lavatory. Whether it is inside the restaurant or out in the building's corridor, whether it is shared between men and women — nobody says. The word appears once, in a joke about what the chilli does to you the next morning, which tells us nothing about this shop. Units in a residential block often send you out to a shared facility, but we could not confirm it.

No one mentioned: In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · 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 25 posts we gathered, 4 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

  • Nobody writes about getting here without a car. In none of the posts is there a walk from a station, a bus, or a number of minutes. One writer tacks the nearest subway exit onto the address in brackets and then says nothing about how she arrived. The closest anyone comes is a 2024 line that on foot it sits right by the complex entrance, on the road, and is easy to find. A post that only summarised the television coverage puts it ten minutes from the station — but that writer never went.
  • The closing time moved. Five posts written between December 2024 and August 2025 say it shuts at 10.20pm, last orders at 9.30; ten written between October 2025 and September 2026 say ten o'clock, last orders at nine. The dates divide cleanly, so this reads as a change rather than a disagreement — though we have not asked the shop. Weekday lunch orders stop at 2.20pm, five writers say, which is a different deadline from the evening one and the one that matters if you are going for the lunch special. One post from April 2026 gives eleven o'clock as the opening; the other fifteen all say half past.
  • Not one post declares a sponsorship. Two clusters still stand out. Two posts went up on the same day, 24 December 2024, both about a newly launched lunch menu — a menu that appears in none of the twenty posts since. And six posts between November 2025 and January 2026 open by naming the television show. We counted both clusters, because the writing, the orders and the prices differ from one to the next. Two writers say a Naver receipt review earns you a free dish or a topping, and two more that booking through Naver brings one — so some of the plates in these posts were not paid for.
