I had a get-together planned in Gangnam so I went hunting for good restaurants nearby and found Arigyegok, a Gangnam Station favorite! Honestly, hunting down good restaurants is basically my only hobby these days... but this place had me sold from the exterior to the food visuals alone, so I went straight away.

## Arigyegok near Gangnam Station: nearly full by 6:30pm on a weekday

Arigyegok's Gangnam Station branch is a fusion Korean bar and restaurant on Teheran-ro 1-gil. We arrived just a bit after 6pm, and by 6:30 it was nearly full. If it's this busy on a weekday, you could probably expect a wait on Friday nights or weekends.

The exterior already looks like something special, right?

It was so packed inside that I didn't get many photos, but overall the vibe was quite cozy and appealing. That said, with the place so full, it did get a little loud, making conversation slightly tricky.

The menu leans fusion Korean too, and the decor has these cute traditional Korean touches scattered throughout.

There were four of us so we sat at a table for four, but once we started ordering all these dishes, honestly the table space felt a bit tight...!

![Arigyegok menu page for alcohol and drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-07-1p82s-900.webp)

## Boyang anju set for 3 at ₩57,600, swapped for 4 people at ₩67,600

Ordering the set menu at Arigyegok is the easiest way to go. We started with the anju set for 3 at ₩57,600 as the base and paid extra to swap out a few items.

The menu is seriously extensive — all kinds of cold dishes, dumplings, desserts, stir-fried anju, signature anju, savory pancakes (jeon), fried anju, and more. There was also a wide range of alcohol and drinks, but since we were planning a second round elsewhere, we skipped the drinks and just focused on the food.

- Anju set (for 3): ₩57,600
- Spicy hangover chicken hot pot: ₩1,000
- Mud duck jeonbyeong: ₩1,000
- Cheesy potato pancake: ₩8,000
- Total: ₩67,600

![Full table spread of the anju set at Arigyegok](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-08-u969i-1200.webp)

The food came out surprisingly fast — within about 5 to 10 minutes. And every single dish looked gorgeous... Our order ended up being spicy hangover chicken hot pot + mud duck jeonbyeong + cheesy potato pancake + black sesame cucumber salad.

![The four dishes that made up the anju set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-09-1bf5x-900.webp)

## Spicy hangover chicken hot pot ₩23,900: yukgaejang with a hint of mala

The spicy hangover chicken hot pot is ₩23,900 à la carte.

![Spicy hangover chicken hot pot topped with a decorative tree](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-10-ak9wo-900.webp)

The presentation is really unique too — the little tree sitting on top is the real showstopper. It's just decoration, so the staff take it away afterward. Seems like such a small thing, but it instantly elevated the whole dish's look. So charming.

![Chicken hot pot pot with the decoration removed](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-11-7jtqj-900.webp)

The chicken piled on top gets added into the broth once it starts boiling. I expected a standard Korean-style spicy chicken hot pot, but when I ladled some out, a clear mala aroma hit me.

![A ladle scooping up the spicy chicken hot pot broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-12-11xiz-900.webp)

It's somewhere between yukgaejang (spicy beef soup) and Chinese-style spiciness with a spoonful of mala thrown in. The combination was way more appealing than I expected. The broth was rich and properly spicy, and the chicken was tender and juicy. Truly a hangover cure in a bowl!

![A bowl generously filled with chicken from the hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-13-imx7g-900.webp)

There's already plenty of chicken in there, and once you add more, it becomes seriously generous — enough that even four people couldn't finish it. You can also add noodles like udon, crispy rice, or glass noodles. Rice mixed into this broth would be amazing too.

## Mud duck jeonbyeong ₩19,900: why every table at Arigyegok had one

The mud duck jeonbyeong (crepe wrap) is ₩19,900 à la carte, and it seemed like every single table at Arigyegok had ordered one.

![Full plate of Arigyegok's mud duck jeonbyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-15-dvi52-900.webp)

![Mud duck jeonbyeong served with sauce and nacho chips](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-16-1q2ku-900.webp)

This dish was seriously unique too. The duck was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, cooked so well I wondered how they managed it. You just slice it and eat it, and the sauce underneath had a chipotle or nacho-sauce kind of flavor that worked really well. It comes with nacho chips and various cabbage to wrap alongside the crepe.

![Cross-section of the sliced mud duck jeonbyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-17-1eusj-900.webp)

Now I understand why every table had this dish when we walked in... Generous portion, absolutely delicious, and not something you'll easily find elsewhere, so I highly recommend it. The duck is done in more of a smoked-duck style, but tastier than the smoked duck I usually eat. Juicy and moist — I really enjoyed it.

Can you see that shine? The kind of dish you just want to pick up with your hands and tear into!

![Plate of black sesame cucumber salad at Arigyegok](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-20-1b2qa-900.webp)

## Black sesame cucumber salad ₩7,900: the light side dish to order

The black sesame cucumber salad is ₩7,900 à la carte.

![Crunchy cucumbers tossed in black sesame sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon/gangnam-arigyegok-boyang-set-cheese-potato-jeon-21-ww1bx-900.webp)

This one was nutty, mildly spicy, and sweet-and-sour all at once — delicious. The cucumbers stayed crunchy, and the flavors blended really well together, making it a great side dish to have on the table. It was the perfect match alongside the richer, heavier dishes like the hot pot and the jeonbyeong.

## New cheesy potato pancake ₩18,900: crispy jeon under corn cheese

The cheesy potato pancake is ₩18,900 à la carte — it's a new item, so we were curious and tried it. Like everything else, this one came in a generous portion. As soon as it arrived, the staff sprinkled it with sizzling corn cheese, and the presentation was seriously impressive.

And the potato pancake itself was so crispy... even after sitting there covered in sauce for a while, it stayed crispy all the way through.

Inside there's potato mousse too, and the cheese sauce mixed with corn, salty bacon, and fluffy potato all come together into something pretty flashy. If you love rich, salty, nutty flavors, this is exactly your thing. Total taste bud winner — I kept picking at it, so I think I ended up eating most of it...

A bit of a mess, but... we truly went all in on the food porn here!! There was so much food we left some behind, but it was genuinely delicious and generous.

## Is Arigyegok worth it? The verdict on value anju in Gangnam

Arigyegok is a Gangnam Station favorite with great atmosphere and great food! The mala-tinged, yukgaejang-style spicy hangover chicken hot pot, the juicy mud duck jeonbyeong, the tangy crunchy black sesame cucumber salad as the perfect side, and the crispy, cheesy, salty cheesy potato pancake — every dish had its own character, tasted great, and came in generous portions.

Everything was good, so it's hard to pick a favorite, but purely by personal taste, the mud duck jeonbyeong and the cheesy potato pancake were my top picks. More than anything, I doubt there's another spot in Gangnam offering this much anju for this price. If you're looking for a great restaurant near Gangnam Station, I highly recommend this one!
