Rokuji
로쿠지 Rokuji is Japanese for 'six o'clock' (六時); one writer pointed out the irony that this izakaya opens in the early afternoon.
Compiled from 29 blog posts read in fullSources →
Rokuji is a small izakaya on the ground floor of an alley in Chebu-dong, Seochon. People come for the sukiyaki: 26 of the 29 visits we counted ordered it, dipped it in beaten raw egg, and finished by boiling the udon that comes with it in the leftover broth. Posts from September 2026 on put the sukiyaki at 32,000 won, and thirteen paired it with a 5,000-won Kelly draft. The menu also covers sashimi, skewers, fried dishes and other hot pots, and because it opens at 2 p.m. on weekdays writers call it a Seochon daytime-drinking spot. We read 30 posts from December 2024 to October 2026 and set one aside because it was about a different restaurant.

Rows without a count: 11 of 11 posts.
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
- Fourteen posts mention an outdoor terrace table. Two describe it as a single table, and three writers say they grabbed it. One noted the air conditioning reaches that seat.
- It is a small room: eleven posts say so, and one counted roughly three four-seat and four two-seat tables. Several describe bamboo blinds or partitions between tables, and four found it quiet enough to talk. One writer instead found the tables packed close and the room bustling.
- Thirteen posts call the portions large, mostly about the sukiyaki; one pair left meat behind, another skipped a second dish.
- Nine posts mention complimentary pretzels with pickled radish (and pickled peppers); one writer got the pretzels refilled.
2 more
- Six posts say the sukiyaki is not too salty. One differed: by the time the udon went in, the broth had reduced and turned salty, so they added water.
- Nine posts describe walking from the station: most say about five minutes from Gyeongbokgung Station exit 2, two say seven or eight.

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.
From the station
Nine posts describe walking from the station: most say about five minutes from Gyeongbokgung Station exit 2, two say seven or eight.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 2 (of 29 posts read) |
|---|---|
| Toilet inside | 3 of 29 posts |
| Separate restrooms | yes 0 · no 1 (of 29 posts read) |
Two posts say it is on the ground floor and easy to spot; nobody mentioned a basement or upstairs seating.
We don't know whether there is a step at the entrance or whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in. That isn't a no; nobody wrote about it.
Three posts say the restroom is inside the restaurant; one of them notes it is shared by men and women.
No one mentioned: Second floor · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet. 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.

What we do not know
- Waiting is split one to one: one post saw people waiting outside, another walked straight in on a weekday evening. A third arrived around 7 p.m. to find about two tables left.
- Opening hours have shifted often. Posts up to 8 March 2026 list Tuesday as the day off; from 30 March it is Sunday. All eleven posts since August 2026 give Tue-Thu 2-10:30 p.m. (last order 9) and Fri-Sat 4 p.m.-2 a.m. (last order 12:30). Mondays are split: six say closed, three say lunch only, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. These are all copied info blocks, so check before going.
- Prices have gone up. Sukiyaki was 28,000 won in March 2025, 29,000 in September 2025, 30,000 from December 2025 to June 2026 and 32,000 from September 2026; the small sashimi platter went from 36,000 to 40,000. One May 2026 post paid 40,000 for sukiyaki and two drafts for two. Nobody called it expensive, and one writer found the food fairly priced.
- Eleven posts list the phone number 0507-1434-7014. Only one writer said they booked ahead, for 6 p.m. on a weekday; the 'reservations by phone' line elsewhere is copied info.
- Eleven posts landed in one month, 8 September to 8 October 2026, following much the same sequence: info block, terrace, sukiyaki, raw egg, udon. Only one of them disclosed sponsorship. Across everything, four posts said the restaurant supplied food or service, seven said they paid themselves, and eighteen said nothing.
