Dongheungwan Suta Jjajang
동흥관수타짜장
About
Hand-pulled jjajang noodles and crisp, sauce-on-the-side tangsuyuk in a spacious Chinese-Korean restaurant.
The point here is the su-ta jjajang (수타짜장): hand-pulled noodles, praised for a firm, chewy bite that holds up to the last mouthful. Their savory black-bean sauce is described as neither especially salty nor sweet, making this a straightforward bowl rather than a heavy, sugary one. The room has a traditional Chinese restaurant feel, with red accents and enough space between tables for family meals and larger groups. Order the su-ta jjajang for ₩8,000, or share the glutinous-rice tangsuyuk (찹쌀탕수육), ₩18,000 for a small portion. Reviews single out its crisp, bite-sized pork and sauce served on the side; it is the most consistently praised extra. The seafood su-ta jjamppong (수타해물짬뽕), ₩11,000, brings a seafood broth with a light wok aroma when it is at its best. Opinions are less settled here: some diners find the broth onion-heavy and the seafood sparse. There are also seafood jjajang and other Chinese-Korean dishes on the menu, so a group can mix bowls and shared plates. The restaurant has dedicated parking, baby chairs and rooms for groups, which make it practical for family lunches or a company dinner. It opens daily from 10:40 to 21:30, but closes for a break from 15:30 to 16:30; plan around that gap rather than arriving mid-afternoon. It also works as a meal stop after hiking at Samaksa. The dossier gives no booking or ordering procedure, so check directly if your group needs a room. Come for a casual noodle meal, or bring a few people to share plates in a more spacious setting. The appeal is the hand-pulled noodle texture and the option to order a range of familiar dishes. Keep expectations measured: reviews mention uneven quality, including bland jjajang and variable seafood in the jjamppong, so the strongest bet is the signature noodle bowl with tangsuyuk to share.
