Seoul's most-visited shopping district, and the densest concentration of street-food carts in the country. Many restaurants here keep picture menus and English-speaking staff.
Meat is ordered by weight per person, usually 150–200g a portion, and most places have a two-portion minimum. Either the staff grill for you or you do it yourself. Wrap a piece in lettuce with garlic and ssamjang paste — that parcel is called ssam. Ordering a portion of rice or cold noodles at the end is the normal way to finish.
Ordered by how complete each public record is and how long the licence has been held — not a popularity ranking. Opening hours, prices and ratings are not in this data.
