About
A long-running Seodaemun beef restaurant known for premium Korean beef sirloin and a weekday lunch set of pork rib kimchi stew and beef yukgaejang.
In Seodaemun, Pungyoram has the feel of a long-standing neighborhood table rather than a room dressed up to look old. Its retro interior, familiar side dishes and decades of focus on Korean beef give it a lived-in warmth. At lunch, the mood shifts toward the working day: a set meal arrives ready to eat, while dinner invites a slower gathering around the grill. For the beef, the signature choice is the premium flower sirloin. One account describes it as a mix of sirloin and the prized rib-eye cap, with a few slices of brisket served alongside; diners cook the meat themselves on a heavy iron plate. Expect rich, savory beef, with scallion salad to cut through the richness. The meal is supported by a generous spread of neatly served banchan—kimchi, japchae and other familiar accompaniments that feel at home beside the meat. This is a place for sharing a substantial dinner, whether among colleagues or with a group of friends. Pungyoram is also more than a beef-house lunch stop. Its limited lunch special brings together pork back ribs braised with kimchi, beef yukgaejang, rice, seaweed and side dishes, including japchae. The stew is described as tender and gently seasoned rather than aggressively spicy, with glass noodles adding another texture. It’s a hearty, home-style spread that makes lunch feel like a proper meal, not a quick bowl eaten between meetings. The setting suits both sides of the menu: an old-fashioned, welcoming room for a full beef dinner, and a dependable-feeling stop for a filling midday table. Come for the flower sirloin when you have time to cook and share; come at lunch for the contrast of tangy, soft rib-and-kimchi stew and warming yukgaejang. Pungyoram’s appeal lies in that combination of serious beef and generous, familiar food.
