About

A charcoal-grilled lamb skewer spot in Gangdong known for notably thick, juicy skewers and a busy weekend crowd.

At 고양꼬치 고덕상일동역점, the first impression is the size of the lamb skewers: plump pieces that look substantial on the grill and, according to repeat visitors, stay tender and juicy when properly cooked. Set them over the charcoal and the skewers turn on their own, browning while the table keeps watch. The trick, diners say, is not to let them go too far; the meat is best while still moist. Lamb is the main event, but part of the pleasure is choosing how to season each bite. Reach for cumin, salt or wasabi, or follow one reviewer’s favorite combination: lamb with pickled onion, garlic and chili. Garlic skewers are another recurring recommendation, and several sauces and seasonings make it easy to change the flavor as you go. A serving comes with five skewers, so it is simple to start with the classic order and add more varieties for the table. The extras are not an afterthought. Black guobaorou brings a chewy, crisp contrast with a spicy edge; the original version is also ordered alongside the lamb. For a sharper break between bites, try the cucumber dish: one review calls the cucumber salad crisp and tangy, while another praises the refreshing oi-tangtangi. When you want something warming, mala tang adds a spicy broth with meat and plenty of bean sprouts. Some diners finish with the spicy hot noodles, or choose fried rice. The mood seems suited to lingering over a shared meal. Reviews describe a lively room with friends drinking together and families dining, and one group of longtime friends made a full evening of skewers, hot broth and conversation. Weekend waits are mentioned more than once, so checking the queue ahead may help. At the table, the rhythm is easy: turn a skewer, pass a sauce, take a sip of broth, and let the next round cook.
