It was packed with old men. I thought, "This is a great restaurant!" I went in. It was noisy because it was dinner time, but it wasn't chaotic and clean. The Gwanbuk Sundae Soup and Sundae Soup were delicious. The spicy sundae was impressive, and the radish kimchi and kimchi were also delicious. Choo choo choo

★★★★★Liah Cha6 months ago

Expected a wait for lunch, holding the wooden spatula tag. I ordered the set menu and switched to the spicy broth, it was absolutely delicious and rich. Just note that the place is small, so you'll be sitting pretty close to your neighbors.

★★★★★B K6 months ago

It was a day when I was annoyed from stress and working overtime. Hungry, I was looking for a hot soup place and ended up visiting this spot on my way home. I ordered the Pork Jowl Sundae Guk set, and the pork jowl served with it was absolutely the best. On top of that, the sundae soup was quite tasty. However, the sundae itself inside the soup didn't taste particularly special; it just tasted like good sundae. The side dishes were decent, and the atmosphere and vibe of the place weren't bad, so I thought it was a soup restaurant worth visiting. If I visit again, I want to try the chewy cheek meat sundae soup. Additionally, since there is a wide variety of sundae soup options here, it seems like the main dish, but looking at the menu, it is truly the perfect place for a drink with a company dinner or a gathering. It is a place I would like to visit for a drink sometime.
