A family of five with two babies booked a private room after swimming at Island Castle and ordered five servings of hanwoo-style pork galbi, dwenjang jjigae with chadol, and pudding-style steamed egg, finishing with free naengmyeon and beontugi ice cream for dessert. With baby chairs and utensils set up in advance, it's a solid pick for family gatherings with young kids. ## Good to know - **Address**: 28-37 Godeok-ro 355beon-gil, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–22:00 - **Hanwoo-style pork galbi**: ₩19,000 per serving (ordered 5 servings) - **Chadol dwenjang jjigae**: ₩6,000 - **Pudding steamed egg**: ₩3,000 - **Rice**: ₩1,000 - **Dessert**: Free handmade naengmyeon per person, beontugi (puffed rice) ice cream, ice cup - **Seating**: Private rooms available, wide hall seating, baby chairs and baby utensils provided - **Side dishes**: Refillable at self-serve bar *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* After swimming with the family at Island Castle water park in Uijeongbu, we had to eat some meat, right?

We arrived around 6:50pm on a Saturday, and there were quite a few people waiting even though we had a reservation. We had booked ahead but still walked in a bit nervous! ![Entrance of Manpo Garden with a Saturday evening waiting line](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-02-1saw5-900.webp) ## A private room for two babies, complete with baby chairs The owner set us up in a private room, and the side dishes were all laid out already! We'd noted two babies when booking, and they had baby chairs, a baby spoon, and even a fork ready. I was worried eating in the main hall with babies would be chaotic, so this was really touching 🥹🥹 The owner is so kind 👍 ![Private room seating at Manpo Garden with side dishes set up](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-03-eh2j9-900.webp) The room was upscale and clean, perfect for a family gathering or an important meal with guests. Of course, the main hall also has quite wide seating spacing, so you can eat comfortably there too! ![Main hall interior at Manpo Garden with wide seating spacing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-04-v23f6-900.webp) ## What we ordered and the prices We were hungry after swimming so we ordered right away 🍗🍖 - Hanwoo-style pork galbi, 5 servings (₩19,000 each) - Chadol dwenjang jjigae (₩6,000) - Rice (₩1,000) - Pudding steamed egg (₩3,000) ![Manpo Garden menu board with hanwoo-style pork galbi prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-05-1t49j-900.webp) ## Basic side dishes — with yukhoe and yukjeon included The side dishes were arranged so neatly it put me in a good mood before I even started eating, haha. Pickled gungchae (aster stems), garlic scape jangajji, potato salad, dwenjang-seasoned chili mix, mu-saengchae (radish salad), and baek-kimchi samchae mix all came out — great with the meat. ![Basic side dishes at Manpo Garden including jangajji and mu-saengchae](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-06-6h93q-900.webp) ![Plate of potato salad and baek-kimchi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-07-1guhd-900.webp) ⭐️And get this, yukhoe (raw beef tartare) and yukjeon (pan-fried beef) come as basic side dishes too!! Wow, I think this is the first place I've seen give out yukhoe and yukjeon for free, haha. My hungry niece polished off the yukjeon and half a bowl of rice in no time. ![Yukhoe served as a basic side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-08-17n06-900.webp) ![Yukjeon served as a basic side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-09-1u3xm-900.webp) ![Yukhoe and yukjeon served together on a table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-10-zycg4-900.webp) ## The hanwoo-style pork galbi is real rib meat The hanwoo-style pork galbi is genuinely rib meat!! A lot of places give you pork shoulder or meat stuck onto a pork bone instead, but this is the real thing, haha. Truly living up to its reputation as a Yangju galbi spot~~~ ![Raw marinated hanwoo-style pork galbi before cooking](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-11-cvg07-900.webp) It sizzles away over charcoal~~ Since it's marinated, it burns fast, so you have to flip it often! ![Marinated pork galbi grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-12-ml28t-1200.webp) We ate it with pickled onions and fresh vegetable salad, and the pork galbi wasn't dry at all — really moist. ![Grilled pork galbi eaten with pickled onions](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-13-1muyw-900.webp) ![A piece of pork galbi topped with fresh vegetable salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-14-jht0d-900.webp) ## Pudding steamed egg and chadol dwenjang jjigae The steamed egg and chadol dwenjang jjigae came out together. Wow?! It really does look like pudding, matching its name perfectly, haha 🍮🍮 So soft and smooth, easy to slurp down. ![Soft pudding-style steamed egg at Manpo Garden](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-15-1e3j8-900.webp) ![Table setting with steamed egg and chadol dwenjang jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-16-d3n0e-900.webp) The dwenjang jjigae was loaded with chadol (beef brisket). It was spicier than I expected, which the adults appreciated for that kick 🌶️ ![Chadol dwenjang jjigae loaded with beef brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-17-12lwy-900.webp) We happily worked through all the side dishes and wraps too, haha. ![Pork galbi wrapped with side dishes in a lettuce wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-18-ifqrg-900.webp) ### Refill side dishes at the self-serve bar If you run out of any side dish, you just grab more from the self-serve bar. Salad refills at other places can sometimes feel awkward to ask for, but since it's self-serve here, you can help yourself freely 🥗 ![Self-serve bar at Manpo Garden for refilling side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-19-1tq1r-900.webp) ## Free handmade naengmyeon for everyone After eating our fill without a break, haha — the best thing about Manpo Garden!! ⭐️They give free handmade naengmyeon (cold noodles) to each person. Where else does that~~~ ![Free bibim naengmyeon served per person](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-20-1t3aw-900.webp) ![Handmade mul naengmyeon served for dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-21-9zkqv-900.webp) The bibim (mixed) naengmyeon is sweet-and-salty and pairs perfectly with the pork galbi, while the mul (broth) naengmyeon is tangy-sweet and totally resets your stomach after all that meat, haha. It's about the size of a dessert portion but still quite filling. What a treat 😆😆 ![Ice cup station for iced Americano](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-22-v2g3c-900.webp) ## Dessert: beontugi ice cream and an ice cup For the final dessert, there's an ice cup too, so you can take out an iced Americano ☕️ and there's also beontugi (puffed rice) ice cream 💥💥🍦🍦 The puffed rice keeps popping out of the machine one after another, haha, which is fun to watch too. You take a piece of puffed rice, put ice cream on top, and you've got beontugi ice cream 🤗 ![Beontugi puffed rice topped with vanilla ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert-23-rcgcz-900.webp) The ice cream is a nice quality vanilla!! It's my first time trying it with puffed rice, but it goes together surprisingly well, haha. We really enjoyed even the dessert 👍👍 ## How the family reacted Everyone in my pork galbi-loving family was happy with the atmosphere, taste, and hospitality overall, which made me proud, haha. My dessert-loving dad seemed to really love the beontugi ice cream... ha. If you're looking for a great Yangju galbi restaurant, I highly recommend this place. ## Where it is - Manpo Garden (만포가든) - 28-37 Godeok-ro 355beon-gil, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 양주시 고덕로355번길 28-37 1층 - 37.8058284, 127.0817134 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%8C%ED%8F%AC%EA%B0%80%EB%93%A0/@37.8058284,127.0817134,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@afterwork-small-plates/yangju-galbi-family-room-dessert/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
