Jeongdon Premium The Hyundai Seoul
정돈 프리미엄 더현대서울
About
Upscale katsu restaurant on the 6th floor of The Hyundai Seoul, famous for low-temperature-fried tender round tenderloin katsu.
Perched on the sixth floor of Yeongdeungpo’s The Hyundai Seoul, Jeongdon Premium offers an elevated take on the beloved Daehangno katsu institution. Unlike the hurried energy of the basement food halls, this directly managed dining room is bright, calm, and spacious, featuring high ceilings and thoughtful accommodations like high chairs and stroller-friendly corner seating that appeal to family shoppers. The kitchen prepares all domestic pork cuts using a low-temperature frying technique, turning out breaded cutlets wrapped in pale yellow, feathery panko crusts without greasy heaviness. The house signature is the thick-cut, circular hire-katsu (pork tenderloin). Cut cleanly to display a blush center, the tender meat pulls apart easily while retaining a reservoir of clear, savory juices. For those craving richer flavors and varied textures, the kata-rose-katsu (pork shoulder) delivers a distinct chew balanced by flavorful marbling. Diners wanting to sample across the board can order the massive premium assortment platter, which layers tenderloin and pork loin alongside rich hangjeongsal (pork jowl) and whole fried eggplant. Trays arrive structured and tidy, accompanied by bowls of miso soup, shredded cabbage salad, potato salad, side dishes, two tonkatsu sauces, and an array of three distinct dipping salts meant to draw out the natural sweetness of the fried pork. Savory curry bowls can be added alongside the mains, creating a spiced, aromatic counterpoint to the crisp cutlets. During lunch and dinner peaks, nearby office workers and weekend shoppers quickly stretch out the queue, making an arrival right at opening or mid-afternoon around 2:00 PM the best strategy to secure a table without waiting. With neat table setups and takeout options available for dining on the move, it remains one of the mall’s most reliable destinations for pristine Japanese-style katsu.
