## In short

Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil (더더간장게장무한리필) is an all-you-can-eat soy crab, marinated crab and crab stew restaurant on Wondang-ro in Deogyang-gu, Goyang. After giving up once on a 90-minute weekend wait, the writer came back on a weekday evening, refilled the crab three times for four plates in total, and finished with the free ramyeon cooked in the leftover crab stew broth. The seasoning at Deodeo is mild rather than salty, so it suits anyone who wants to keep eating crab meat instead of rice.

Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil is an all-you-can-eat soy crab restaurant on Wondang-ro in Deogyang-gu, Goyang, Gyeonggi. I'd been craving soy crab lately and found this place while searching for good spots — it's won a Blue Ribbon award every year from 2022 to 2026, so I was curious 🌟

Actually, I visited last weekend and the wait was a whopping 90 minutes ;; such a huge wait that I gave up once … ^_ㅠ hahaha. When I came back on a weekday evening, it was nice and relaxed. So let me write an honest review after visiting in person ^.^

## Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil hours, parking and location

- 🕰️ Hours: Daily 11:00–21:20 (last order 20:30)
- 📍 Address: 357-1 Wondang-ro, Deogyang-gu, Goyang, Gyeonggi, South Korea, 1st floor
- 🅿️ Parking: Available at the restaurant

## Outside Deodeo: a walk from Wondang Station, and a rabbit in the parking lot

Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil is a bit far from Wondang Station, so I came by car. This place is famous for long weekend waits, so I was a little nervous even on a weekday, but the evening was quieter than expected!

The shop has had a Blue Ribbon sticker on it for years — selected every year from 2022 to 2026, wow. That's exactly why I gave up on the weekend wait once — because it's a trustworthy Blue Ribbon spot haha

✔️ They said they're open as usual during Chuseok holidays -

🅿️ Parking is available right in front of the restaurant. But there was a rabbit living in the parking lot?! 😳 I don't know if it's someone's pet or a wild one, but I never expected to meet a rabbit in a parking lot, so I sat in the car and watched it for a while ^.^ haha. Came for crab, left having seen a rabbit too 🐰

## High partitions inside Deodeo make eating crab with your hands easy

The inside of Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil was pretty spacious! The partitions between tables were quite high, and it turned out to be a good thing 🫢

Eating crab means getting your hands messy, and your mouth too — it's already chaotic enough … ^_ㅠ so it was nice to eat comfortably without worrying about other tables.

## Deodeo's menu: all-you-can-eat or the single-crab set?

The menu at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil is simpler than I expected! All-you-can-eat vs single-crab set — most people order the all-you-can-eat set, so we did too. All-you-can-eat = soy crab + marinated crab + crab stew.

![Menu board showing all-you-can-eat and single-crab set options](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-06-19z2j-900.webp)

The biggest draw is being able to eat crab to your heart's content since it's all-you-can-eat !!! ♥

![Notice about removing the sand sac from the crab shell](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-07-122u0-900.webp)

Before eating the crab, I read the notice too — it said to be sure to remove the sand sac inside the shell !!! This can be confusing the first time you eat it, but since there's a notice, it's helpful to reference -

![Apron prepared before eating the crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-08-1oc80-900.webp)

An apron is a must when eating crab !!! Soy crab sauce is bound to splash … and marinated crab sauce is bound to splash too … ^^ I put mine on right away and started eating.

![Table set with soy crab, marinated crab, and crab stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-09-xo47o-900.webp)

## What comes on the table: soy crab, marinated crab, crab stew and side dishes

The spread came out quickly 🤭 With soy crab, marinated crab, and crab stew on the table, it was already packed! Add the side dishes on top, and it was a truly generous spread .. ♥

It looks even more abundant on video haha. If you love soy crab, this visual alone is exciting 🦀

![Table full of soy crab dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-10-1b0so-900.webp)

![Close-up of the all-you-can-eat set spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-11-1trbj-900.webp)

![Side dishes served with the crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-12-l7tsn-900.webp)

The side dishes filled the table too — gim (seaweed sheets), flying fish roe, steamed egg, braised burdock root, diced radish kimchi, bean sprouts, seaweed, and more. Soy crab is delicious with rice, but wrapping it in gim and adding flying fish roe gives it a whole different flavor, which I loved >.< ♥

## Is the soy crab at Deodeo salty?

The soy crab at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil wasn't heavily seasoned or salty. Overall, it was on the mild side, a bit different from the classic strong 'rice thief' style people expect!

![Close-up of plump soy crab meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-14-f4vgd-900.webp)

But I actually saw this as a plus haha. When the seasoning is too strong, you keep eating rice — but here I could keep eating the crab itself .. 🐷 (for people who want to eat more crab than rice ^.^ hahaha). The crab itself also felt fresh, which I liked.

Up close, the meat looks pretty plump, right? That day I focused less on eating a lot of rice and more on eating as much crab meat as possible >.< hahaha

![Squeezing soy crab meat out by hand](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-15-5kjle-900.webp)

Is there really a method to eating crab… you just grab it with your hands and squeeze it out 🤣 Press firmly where the meat is and squeeze it out, savoring that distinctive sweet-salty flavor of soy crab. Yum!

This is where the high table partitions really helped haha. You can just dig in without worrying about anyone watching.

And of course, you can't skip the crab shell! You have to scrape out every bit of the roe inside the shell haha. Mix rice into the shell and stir it around. If you came for crab, eating crab shell rice is a must !!! hahaha

![Rice mixed into the crab shell](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-16-yt4l0-900.webp)

![Soy crab meat and flying fish roe on gim](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-17-bkhqu-900.webp)

Personally, I loved eating it this way ♥ soy crab meat on gim, topped with flying fish roe. Adding the roe gives it a nice popping texture compared to just eating the soy crab alone haha.

## How spicy is Deodeo's marinated crab?

The marinated crab at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil had a bolder flavor than the soy crab, making it good to mix in between bites. Still, overall it wasn't an intensely strong seasoning style.

![Plate of marinated crab at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-18-1b25f-900.webp)

Marinated crab also gets the hand-squeeze treatment haha. This is really the best way to eat crab ~ finding the meaty spots and picking them clean 🦀

![Marinated crab meat picked out of the shell](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-19-11dwm-900.webp)

I mixed the marinated crab meat into a bowl of rice. Eating it this way, with the sauce soaking into the rice, is a whole different experience !!! (tastes like Yeosu-style seasoned raw crab meat … ♥)

Marinated crab pairs a bit more intensely with rice than soy crab, so I ate it with rice on and off haha. Also wrapped marinated crab in gim! Gim + marinated crab + flying fish roe combo was a real standout, living up to being my favorite combination ♥

![Rice mixed with marinated crab meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-20-4bbt9-900.webp)

## Free ramyeon cooked in the leftover crab stew broth

Can't skip the crab stew either 🍲 The crab stew at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil was great for drinking the broth too.

![Crab stew with a whole crab inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-21-153xd-900.webp)

It was packed with generous ingredients, including a whole crab. After eating crab, a spoonful of the broth felt like it reset my palate, so it was nice to have alongside the main dishes.

And then, suddenly craving ramyeon haha, we added more broth and cooked ramyeon in it. The ramyeon was given as a free service, but by then I'd already eaten so much crab that I was pretty full … ^.^?!

So I didn't push it and only cooked about half a portion. Ramyeon in crab stew broth … ♥ this is a combination that's really hard to make taste bad 🥹

Scoop out the noodles once they're cooked just right! Even though I was already pretty full, there was still room for ramyeon somehow 🐷💦

## Crab refills come two at a time — four plates in one sitting

Ah, at Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil, when you ask for a refill they bring two crabs at a time. At some all-you-can-eat places you feel awkward asking for refills, but there was none of that vibe here 👍 I just asked casually and they brought it right away haha.

We finished, and… asked for another refill … ^^ We refilled three times that day .. so including the first serving, we ate four plates total … ^^ We really ate a ton of crab 🤣 A day we fully enjoyed the perks of all-you-can-eat haha, honestly ate so much soy crab I felt like I turned into a human crab ;; 🦀

## Verdict: at Deodeo the crab itself beats the sauce

![Stacked plates of refilled crab for the final verdict shot](https://img.superchart.com/images/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon/dodo-ganjang-gejang-refill-ilsan-ramyeon-24-14thx-900.webp)

Overall, Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil felt less like the classic strongly-seasoned 'rice thief' style soy crab and more like a place where the crab itself is delicious. (Since the seasoning isn't strong, you don't fill up on rice and can just keep eating crab .. ♥)

Even though it's all-you-can-eat, we didn't fill up on rice — we ate a whopping four plates of crab, so I felt proud that we really got our money's worth haha. Once my crab cravings cycle back around, I'll revisit and eat four plates of soy crab all over again !!! If you're looking for a great soy crab spot in Ilsan, I highly recommend Deodeo Ganjanggejang Muhalliripil >.<
