Two adults and a baby stopped by for a late Saturday lunch on the way back from Seoul Grand Park, waited about 10 minutes, and had the couple course for two at 55,000 won, which covers sulfur-fed duck chadol (beef-brisket-cut duck) barbecue, raw duck jumulleok (spicy hand-mixed duck), doenjang stew and self-serve fried rice. With roomy parking and two types of baby chairs, Deo Chadol is an easy pick for families eating out with a young child. ## Good to know - **Location**: 5 Ditgol 2-ro, 1st floor, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do (next to Seonbawi Station) - **What we ordered**: Couple course for two, 55,000 won (visit: 2 adults, 1 baby) - **A la carte price**: Sulfur-fed duck chadol barbecue, 200g — 18,000 won - **Course line-up**: Duck chadol barbecue, raw duck jumulleok, doenjang stew, fried rice (self-serve) - **Side dishes**: Salad, wrap vegetables, green onion kimchi, pickled perilla leaves (refills at the self-serve bar) - **Wait**: Full house at late Saturday lunch, about 10 minutes - **Seating**: Main hall, private room, bar table / two types of baby chairs - **Parking**: Gravel lot with plenty of space, staff guide you in - **How to order**: Kiosk ordering, several review and follow promotions - **Price reference**: ₩55,000 ≈ $41 · ₩18,000 ≈ $13.5 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ## Why we stopped at Deo Chadol on the way back from Seoul Grand Park Deo Chadol is a duck specialty restaurant on Ditgol 2-ro in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi. We stopped by this Gwacheon favorite on the way home from Seoul Grand Park. Searching around, I found Deo Chadol has quite a reputation as a family-friendly spot to hit after visiting the National Gwacheon Science Museum, Seoul Land, or Seoul Grand Park. True to Gwacheon restaurant form, the parking was perfect, and the place had a country-garden kind of vibe. ![Exterior of Deo Chadol in Gwacheon with a country-garden feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-01-d9zgs-900.webp) It was pretty hot out that day, so we parked and headed straight into the restaurant. As our car pulled in, a staff member came out and helped guide the parking. ![Driveway leading into Deo Chadol's parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-02-wd2ji-900.webp) You just park anywhere in the gravel lot, and the space is really generous. This spot is right next to Seonbawi Station, and there were plenty of restaurants around, plus quite a few cafés to hit right after the meal. ![Spacious gravel parking area at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-03-8n80g-m-900.webp) ## How long is the wait at late Saturday lunch? We visited during Saturday late lunch and the place was fully booked, with quite a few reserved tables. I waited a little over 10 minutes. Looking around, surprisingly there were some couples, but the crowd was mostly families out for a meal or groups of older adults. ![Fully booked main hall at Deo Chadol on a Saturday late lunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-04-1v5ri-m-900.webp) It didn't feel like a rowdy drinking spot so much as a place quieter groups come to often, so I thought it was well suited for a family visit. ![Main hall tables at Deo Chadol filled with families](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-05-vdtsc-900.webp) Across from the main hall there's also a separate room, which looked good for reservations if you want a quiet meal. ![Separate room across from the main hall at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-06-1hhm6-900.webp) ### Is Deo Chadol good with a baby? Two types of baby chairs Since we came with a baby, the most important question was of course whether the place is kid-friendly. There were tons of baby chairs, and even at the bar tables you could sit with a baby, since they had two kinds — with legs and without. ## Deo Chadol menu and the 55,000-won couple course for two ![Duck menu board at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-07-1l3rw-610.webp) ![Course menu composition guide at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-08-12csh-602.webp) ![À la carte and meal menu guide at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-09-jdqat-601.webp) Since Deo Chadol is basically a duck specialty restaurant, most of the menu is duck dishes. Coming as a pair, most people go for the couple course, and the 3- and 4-person course setups looked really solid too. With 2 adults and 1 baby, we ordered the couple course for two at ₩55,000. ![Table set before ordering the couple course for two at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-10-1rng2-900.webp) You order through a kiosk, and since they run a lot of promotions, there's plenty you can get extra if you pay attention. There were review events, follow events, several going at once. ![Kiosk ordering and event promotions at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-11-nj9ow-1200.webp) The basic side dishes were salad, lettuce wraps, green onion kimchi, pickled perilla leaves, and so on — if you run out, you can grab more from the self-serve bar. ![Basic side dishes: salad, lettuce wraps, green onion kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-12-1l2pf-1200.webp) The vegetables grilled alongside are water dropwort, king oyster mushroom, and onion. Staff told us in advance that once the duck fat starts rendering, you should grill the vegetables in it. ![Water dropwort, king oyster mushroom, and onion on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-13-nblow-1200.webp) ## Sulfur-fed duck chadol barbecue and the house special sauce The sulfur-fed duck chadol BBQ is ₩18,000 for 200g, and the meat quality looked really good. ![Sulfur-fed duck chadol BBQ, 200g, grilling](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-14-1ilxz-966.webp) ![A piece of duck chadol with the house special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-15-1mpgu-900.webp) ![Duck chadol BBQ eaten with lettuce wraps](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-16-c3ln0-900.webp) The house sauce is on the spicier side, and it was tasty enough that you could tell why they call it 'special sauce.' I've noticed this before, but duck chadol has a clean, light flavor, so even the baby ate it up happily. ![Lightly grilled duck chadol with side vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-17-5edng-966.webp) The doenjang (soybean paste) stew that came with the set was also quite clean-tasting. ![Doenjang stew included in the couple set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-18-1fzlw-900.webp) ## Raw duck jumulleok and self-serve fried rice to finish Next came the raw duck jumulleok (spicy stir-fried duck). They say it's ready to eat once the sweet potato is fully cooked through — it turned out less spicy than I expected, more like a dakgalbi (spicy stir-fried chicken) sauce flavor. ![Raw duck jumulleok cooking together with sweet potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-19-kf1il-900.webp) Man... duck jumulleok is hard to share with a baby, but for adults it's a real treat, a true standout. Coming right after the light, clean duck chadol, it worked perfectly in terms of order too — really delicious. ![Raw duck jumulleok finished cooking in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-20-vqgk7-900.webp) Last in the couple set is the fried rice. You make it yourself, stir-frying it together with whatever meat is left over. ![Self-fried rice stir-fried with leftover meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait-21-5tjcs-966.webp) The duck jumulleok's own sauce is incredible on its own, and eating it with the seaweed and perilla leaves made for a perfect finish. Heading out to pay, I noticed toothpicks, dental floss, and mouth-rinse stations set up for guests — it really drove home how much thought Deo Chadol puts into taking care of customers. ## Is Deo Chadol in Gwacheon worth a visit? On a day like this, when you want a good garden-style meal with family in Gwacheon, Deo Chadol is a great choice. They even set out milk coffee at the end, and between the parking, the atmosphere, and the food, everything is solid — making it a great option for families looking for a good restaurant near Seoul Grand Park or Seoul Land. ## Where it is - Deo Chadol (더차돌) - 5 Ditgol 2-ro, 1st floor, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 과천시 뒷골2로 5 1층 - 37.4533362, 127.001765 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%8D%94%EC%B0%A8%EB%8F%8C/@37.4533362,127.001765,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@basalt-cafe-pages/gwacheon-duck-course-saturday-lunch-wait/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
