Compiled from 3 blog posts read in fullSources →
A budae-jjigae (army stew) restaurant on Mokdongdong-ro 12-gil near Omokgyo Station. We read 4 posts dated 18 July to 2 October 2026; 3 describe an actual meal, and the fourth is one entry in a list of ten Seoul army-stew places. All three visitors ordered the house-named stew — two had three servings plus a half pork cutlet, one couple had two servings. The stew comes with pot-cooked rice rather than a plain bowl, and side dishes and tteokbokki are refilled from a self-serve bar. Only one post gives a price: 26,000 won for two servings.

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
- All three visitors went back to the self-serve bar for more side dishes: dried radish, steamed egg, fish-cake stir-fry and tteokbokki kept warm in a rice cooker. One said she always refills the steamed egg at least once and warned that it runs out if you come late.
- All three posts call the portions large. Two say there is so much ham and noodle in the pot that extra add-ons are unnecessary; the couple who shared two servings wrote that they could barely finish the stew, the noodles and the scorched rice.
- Both posts that ordered the half pork cutlet said the coating was crisp; one noted it was fairly big for a half portion.
- All three visitors mention a 2,000 won discount for posting a Naver or photo review. One also copied the shop's notice of a 2,000 won takeout discount.

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
| Second floor | 1 of 3 posts |
|---|---|
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 1 (of 3 posts read) |
One post describes the layout: nine four-person tables on the ground floor and five more upstairs. Another says the room is roomy with plenty of tables.
Nobody says whether there is a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in — we don't know, rather than knowing there is none. Nobody describes how you get up to the second floor either.
No post says where the toilet is or whether it is separated by gender.
No one mentioned: 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 4 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
- Two of the three visits (3 Sept and 2 Oct 2026) repeat the same phrases in the same order — 'over 30 years', the Blue Ribbon, 'close to Songtan-style', no need for extra noodles, the 2,000 won review discount — and both ordered three servings plus a cutlet. Neither discloses sponsorship, but they read like the same commissioned brief. Only one post shows a receipt and says the writer paid.
- No visitor says they came by subway. The '197 m from Exit 7 of Omokgyo Station (Line 5)' line is copied from the shop's listing, and one post only remarks that being near the station makes it easy to reach.
- Nobody reports waiting. One post says the place was very busy, but we don't know whether there was a line.
- Only one post says who the writer came with (her boyfriend). Two others ordered three servings without saying who was at the table.
- Three posts give opening hours of 11:00-21:00, and two add a 15:00-17:00 break and closure on Sundays and Mondays. They agree, but all copied the shop's listing at the top of the post; nobody says they checked.
- Only one post (September 2026) gives a price: 26,000 won for two servings of the house stew. We don't know what the cutlet, kimchi stew or beef-brisket stew cost, or what a full meal comes to.
- Three posts give the same phone number, 0507-1341-8253. 'Reservations and takeout available' is copied from the shop's notice; nobody says they booked ahead.
