Compiled from 2 blog posts read in fullSources →
A Korean barbecue on the third floor of a building on Myeongdong 8na-gil, where staff grill your pork belly (18,000 won) or pork neck (21,000 won) at the table. We read 5 posts dated 17 August to 21 September 2026. Two were about the separate No. 2 branch on Myeongdong 10-gil and were set aside, and one was a single entry in a list of 15 Seoul restaurants, so we did not count it as a visit. Only 2 posts, both from September 2026, describe actually eating here, so every count below comes from those two.

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
- Both visit posts say staff did the grilling. One liked that finished pieces were moved to the side of the grill, and the other says rice cake and king oyster mushrooms were grilled along with the pork neck.
- One post sat at the window and ate while watching the Myeongdong street through the large glass. Two posts mention private rooms.
- Both visit posts noticed many foreign tourists among the diners.

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

Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 2 (of 2 posts read) |
|---|---|
| Lift to the floor | 1 of 2 posts |
Two posts say it is on the third floor, and one took the elevator up. It is not in a basement.
Nobody said whether there is a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller gets in. One post mentions an elevator, and that is all.
No post about this branch says where the toilets are or whether they are separated by gender. That means nobody wrote it down, not that they are missing.
No one mentioned: Second 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 3 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
- Some phrasing in one visit post (top-grade 'golden' pork belly, snowflake Hanwoo, cozy rooms and a large hall) matches the restaurant's own blurb quoted in a No. 2 branch post. We treat it as the restaurant's copy, not as evidence.
- One post says it is close to Myeongdong station, but did not give an exit number or walking time.
- No post about this branch says whether they had to wait or whether you can book.
- Neither visit post says enough about who they came with to group them. Both say it looks good for team dinners or groups, but neither went as one.
- Both visit posts list opening hours as daily 11:00 to 04:00, but both copied this along with the address and phone number. Nobody mentioned a break time or closing days.
- The only prices are four items one post copied from the menu. No post said what a meal came to, and neither called it expensive or cheap.
- Three posts about this branch give the phone number 02-753-3536. Nobody said whether you can make a reservation.
