Eutteum Suksunghanu NO.9

About

Semi-omakase beef restaurant in Doksan-dong grilling aged premium 1++ No.9 Hanwoo over personal charcoal braziers.

Tucked on the first floor of the Lotte Castle Gold Park 3 complex in Geumcheon, Eutteum Suksung Hanwoo No.9 brings a polished, semi-omakase beef experience to Doksan-dong. Operating with an open kitchen and subdued lighting, the dining room balances sleek counter seating with well-spaced tables. Despite the serious charcoal grilling happening at every station, the space stays noticeably free of smoke and lingering grease, making it an easy pick for dates, family outings, and celebratory meals. The core draw is domestic beef graded at 1++ No.9—the peak marbling tier in Korea—carefully wet-aged to deepen tenderness. For newcomers, the assorted platter (*hanwoo modeum*) is the standard order. It showcases cuts like thinly sliced *chadolbaegi* (brisket), dense rib meat (*galbisal*), tender blade steak (*buchaesal*), and marbling-heavy sirloin (*deungsim*). Staff tend to the tabletop charcoal braziers (*hwaro*), grilling and slicing each cut to match the diners’ pace so nothing sits overcooked. The accompaniments stray pleasantly from standard barbecue fare. Alongside pickled garlic scapes, white kimchi, and perilla leaf, the table is set with seasoned *ankimo* (monkfish liver), spicy tossed cockles (*kkomak muchim*), bright basil pesto, and seasoned sushi rice. Guests frequently pair the hot beef with a smear of rich liver over a bite-sized block of sushi rice, creating an improvised beef nigiri that contrasts rich fat with sea-brined depth. Lunch hours pull a steady corporate crowd for quicker bowls like 1++ beef tartare bibimbap (*hanwoo yukhoe bibimbap*), cockle bibimbap, and hearty cabbage beef soup (*hanwoo ugeoji haejang-guk*). Drivers can park smoothly in the attached Lotte Mart underground garage, where elevator bays lead right up to the storefront. With daytime reservations open from 11:00 AM, it delivers a focused, fully serviced beef tasting without the rigid tempo or sky-high markup of high-end Gangnam tasting counters.
