Compiled from 2 blog posts read in fullSources →

A steamed-crab restaurant at Mangu-ro 458, Building D, in Jungnang-gu. You pick a Russian or red snow crab set; a spread of sides comes first (raw fish, octopus, sea squirt, oysters, fried crab leg), then the crab, then fried rice in the shell and a soup with noodles. Neither post gave prices. We read 2 posts, from July 2025 to February 2026, both family visits.

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

  1. Both posts ate in a private room. One said every table is in its own room; the other sat eight people in one room and found the table big enough.
  2. One post watched the crab being taken from the tank and put straight into the steamer after ordering.

Parking

Posts saying you can park1 of 2 posts

One post parked there and said the lot tucked behind the building was a relief in an area where parking is hard. The other post did not mention parking.

Where it is

Map showing where Dokdo Gejjim 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

No post described which floor the restaurant is on; only the address says ground floor.

Nobody wrote about a step at the entrance or wheelchair or stroller access. We don't know.

Nobody mentioned where the toilet is or whether it is split by gender.

No one mentioned: Second floor · 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.

What we do not know

  • One post relayed that seating is limited to three hours from ordering, as something it was told; we did not count it.
  • No post gave a price; one only said it is not cheap. We don't know what a set or a meal costs.
  • Both posts list hours as 12:00-23:00 daily, but both copied it alongside the address and phone. Nobody mentioned a break, last order or closing day.
  • Both posts list the phone number 02-433-8892, but neither said whether they booked.
  • One post's title mentions Yangwon station, but nobody described getting there by subway or bus.
  • Nobody said whether they had to wait. That doesn't mean there is no wait; we just don't know.
  • Both posts were family meals. None came with friends, a partner or alone, so we can't say how it suits those.
