About
24-hour pork and Korean comfort food restaurant near Sadang Station, serving grilled Jeju pork belly and generous sets with chives.
Tucked along the Namhyeon-gil alleyway just a short walk from Sadang Station’s Exit 6, Meoksoe Dolsoe is a welcoming second-floor sanctuary for classic Korean comfort food. Having relocated from its former spot near Exit 5, the expanded space features bright window-side seating, an efficient ventilation system that keeps heavy smoke at bay, and touchscreen kiosks at every table. Operating 24 hours a day—pausing only for an afternoon break between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM—it transitions seamlessly from a tranquil breakfast and lunchtime retreat into a bustling evening pork house that accommodates both solo diners and late-night groups. The kitchen’s dual identity shines equally through generous homestyle set meals and tabletop grilling. A standout lunch order is the heukdwaeji jeyuk baekban, which pairs sweet-savory Jeju black pork with mounds of fresh, aromatic garlic chives (buchu) that cut through the rich, spicy seasoning. Meals often begin with a complimentary starter of nutty, mildly sweet pumpkin porridge (hobak-juk) to wake the palate, accompanied by individual tureens of doenjang-jjigae, banchan, and house kimchi so well-crafted that the restaurant sells it by the batch. Other lunch favorites span sizzling dolsot bibimbap, hearty ttukbaegi bulgogi, and a deeply savory heukdwaeji kimchi-jjigae. Come evening, tabletop burners take center stage. Grill orders naturally focus on thick cuts of Jeju ogyeopsal, prized for its springy skin and rich ribbons of fat, alongside leaner, clean-tasting samgyeopsal. Servers pile the hot sloped griddle with bean sprouts, mushrooms, and sliced kimchi, allowing the pork drippings to fry the aromatics to a crisp sizzle. Wrapped in lettuce with seasoned chives, pickled radish wraps, raw garlic, and ssamjang, each bite delivers the unfussy, layered indulgence of a neighborhood classic. Street parking on the narrow alley is unavailable, making a brisk walk from the station or a nearby public lot the easiest route to this round-the-clock neighborhood staple.
