A pollock-braise house that opened in early September 2026 at 123 Yeono-ro in Ora-dong, Jeju City, off Yeonbuk-ro. The main dish is semi-dried pollock braised in a spicy sauce with rice cakes — 42,000 won small, 56,000 medium, 70,000 large — with three spice levels; four posts counted three whole fish in the small. Until 3 pm there is a lunch set at 15,000 won a head for two or more. Extra side dishes come from a self-serve bar, and you wrap rice, fish and bean sprouts in laver. We read 11 posts dated 10 September to 23 October 2026; 10 of them describe an actual visit.

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.
What sets it apart
- Built for groups: 7 posts mention a separate group room, one describing it as private space for 30 to 40 people. Nine posts describe a big hall with widely spaced tables, and several saw local elders arriving for gatherings.
- Side dishes are topped up from a self-serve bar, as 8 posts describe; one notes the laver sheets are refillable there too, another recommends loading up on the pickled chillies.
- All 3 posts written by families with small children found high chairs; many ordered the 12,000-won house-made tteokgalbi patty for kids who can't take the spicy braise.
- Three posts found the braise not salty. Sweetness splits 3 to 2: three called it sweet-spicy, two said it wasn't sweet. Those who ordered regular or mild compared it to slightly below Shin Ramyun heat.

Parking is easy: 9 of the 10 visit posts mention the large private lot right in front, and 3 of them say even a tour bus would fit. One visitor arriving on a rainy night noted the lot was brightly lit.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 1 (of 10 posts read) |
|---|
Only one post mentions the floor: a ground-floor shop in a brick building. Another says it occupies a standalone building.
We don't know about steps at the entrance or wheelchair access — nobody wrote about it. One post's summary box says strollers can get around, but that is copied information, not something we counted.
We don't know about the toilets; one post's summary box says they are inside and clean, but no one described using them.
No one mentioned: Second floor · 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 11 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
- Only one post saw a queue: arriving at the 10 am opening, they saw people waiting by noon. Another, arriving at 11:30 on a weekday, saw the room fill at noon. Nobody recorded how long a wait lasts. One post booked through Naver and was seated straight away.
- We don't know how to get there by bus; posts only give driving times (10 minutes from the airport, 5 from the provincial office). Three posts say they drove.
- All 10 visit posts give the same hours: daily 10:00–21:30 with a break from 15:30 to 16:30. These are copied summary lines, and one post also says 21:00 in its text. Three posts say it is open every day of the year; nobody gave a last-order time.
- Prices are consistent across the Sept–Oct 2026 posts, except one listing the medium braise at 65,000 won where three others say 56,000. One receipt shows 57,000 won for a small braise, a tteokgalbi, stone-pot rice and a bowl of rice.
- Takeout is unclear: one visitor took a small braise home before returning, while a post a day later said takeout and delivery were 'still being prepared'.
- Five posts give the same phone number, 0507-1340-0254; one post booked a table through Naver reservations.
- Most posts follow the same template — the same 'Jeju Korean restaurant' keyword, a paragraph on pollock's health benefits, and the house's eating instructions in the same order. Two posts say they paid themselves; the other eight say nothing about sponsorship. Claims that the heat comes only from Korean chillies with no capsaicin, that the owner won cooking-contest prizes, or that it descends from a Seogwipo fish house are the shop's own words or hearsay, and we did not count them.
