Aged Meat Grilled to Perfection Near Nambu Terminal
On a day when I was visiting an exhibition at the Seoul Arts Center, I decided to enhance my mood with some delicious aged pork and headed to a famous BBQ restaurant near Nambu Terminal Station.
It's conveniently located within a short walk (about 5-6 minutes) from the Seoul Arts Center, making it a great spot to visit after a performance or exhibition.
Upon entering, you'll see the Blue Ribbon award displayed – a testament to its guaranteed deliciousness.
They serve meat for both lunch and dinner, and their lunch special is incredibly generous. Many people visit this Seocho-dong restaurant just for lunch.
The Seocho-dong lunch special includes Kimchi Stew + Stir-fried Pork, and they even offer unlimited rice! (Minimum order of 2 servings)
If you're using Nambu Terminal Station and looking for a great place for lunch or dinner nearby, I highly recommend this Seocho-dong BBQ spot. It's easy to remember since it's called Nambu!
The space is clean and spacious, and the table arrangement is unique. There are large, connected tables, making it ideal for company dinners or group gatherings.
They also have private rooms in the back, so you can enjoy your BBQ in a more intimate setting with a reservation.

Nambu Platter
Nambu Platter (62,000 KRW / 600g)
Aged Pork Belly, Aged Pork Shoulder Loin, Pork Skirt Meat
This platter allows you to enjoy all three of their signature cuts, making it a popular choice at this Nambu Terminal restaurant.
I enjoy experiencing the different tastes and textures of each pork cut, so the platter was the perfect choice for me. I like trying a variety of cuts to find my personal favorites!
Side Dishes
The variety of side dishes they offer is amazing, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of flavors with each bite of meat.
Breadcrumb Salad, Soybean Paste Sauce, Pickled Vegetables, Young Radish Kimchi, White Kimchi
They also have perilla leaves and lettuce salad that are freshly made upon ordering, so you can enjoy plenty of vegetables with your meat.
Four Special Sauces:
Garlic Soy Sauce, Shiitake Mushroom Wasabi Pickle, Wasabi, Fermented Anchovy Sauce
The side dishes and sauces are perfectly set to eliminate any greasy feeling.
This Seocho-dong BBQ restaurant uses a specially made stone grill where they cook the meat for you.
The grill is unique, consisting of a gas-fired stone plate + a charcoal grill. They first grill the meat on the stone plate and then move it to the charcoal grill to infuse it with a smoky flavor.
They provide a full grilling service from start to finish, cooking the meat to the perfect doneness, so you can fully enjoy Nambu's signature aged meat.
They also quickly grill the vegetables and mushrooms and place them on the side.
They started with the aged pork skirt meat and pork shoulder loin.
The thickly cut, square-shaped pork shoulder loin had a delightfully chewy texture.
The pork skirt meat was especially delicious, with a perfect ratio of fat to meat, resulting in a burst of juicy flavor in my mouth.
I enjoyed the pork skirt meat without any additional seasoning, and its savory flavor was intense.
After we finished the first two cuts, they slowly grilled the aged pork belly.
The pork belly had an excellent fat-to-meat ratio. They grill it whole to lock in the juices and then cut it into large, easy-to-eat pieces. The texture is wonderfully chewy, tender, and moist.
This Nambu Terminal restaurant excels at serving meat with a high fat content, so next time I want to order the pork skirt meat and pork belly as individual servings.
Eating fatty meat continuously can sometimes feel greasy, but the side dishes here are designed to eliminate that greasy feeling, allowing you to enjoy your meal with various flavor combinations.
My favorite sauce of the day was the shiitake mushroom wasabi sauce. It's incredibly addictive and makes you want to eat meat endlessly!
Kimchi Rice Soup
Kimchi Rice Soup (8,000 KRW)
Finally, I got to try rice soup!
I don't actually eat soybean paste stew. So, I was always envious of people eating soybean paste rice soup at BBQ restaurants.
But kimchi rice soup?! It's like they created this meal just for me! Of course, I had to order it.
It arrived bubbling hot in an earthenware pot, topped with fresh white tofu.
This Nambu Terminal restaurant's meal menu allows you to enjoy the unique sweetness that comes from the rice starch when rice is cooked in kimchi stew, creating a thick and flavorful soup.
I guess I really wanted to try rice soup. I gave a small portion to my companion and ate the rest myself!
The kimchi rice soup, made with well-fermented kimchi, had a delicious tangy and spicy flavor.
It was also packed with pork, which was tender, moist, and had a slightly chewy texture after being cooked in the tangy broth.
The broth of the spicy and refreshing kimchi stew had a sweet flavor from the rice starch, making it thick and rich. I couldn't stop eating it.
I loved the kimchi rice soup, which allowed me to finally try rice soup for the first time. This Seocho-dong BBQ restaurant offers a grilling service where they cook aged pork belly, pork shoulder loin, pork skirt meat, and pork hanging tender for you. It's a place I want to visit anytime I'm craving meat :)
