After finishing my wedding-dress fitting, the three of us had robot par-grilled bone-in pork belly and spicy soft tofu stew, and a staff member cooked the first round. Verdict: a great spot for bone-in pork belly and outdoor-table vibes on a cool day. ## Good to know - **Location**: 90 m from Exit 6 of Apgujeong Rodeo Station - **Parking**: Valet parking near the valet booth for ₩5,000 - **Ordering**: Order first via the table QR code, then pay together when leaving - **Included side dishes**: Perilla leaves, lettuce, kimchi, bean sprouts, and pickled side dishes *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* After finishing my wedding-dress fitting, I was really craving meat and found Chobeoljip Apgujeong Rodeo Branch. It also has that outdoor-table atmosphere, so I think it will get very busy once the weather turns cooler. ## A Korean BBQ restaurant with outdoor-table vibes in Apgujeong Rodeo ![Chobeoljip Korean BBQ restaurant in Apgujeong Rodeo](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-01-dkyl3-900.webp) This is Chobeoljip, a new restaurant in Apgujeong Rodeo. It has branches in Gwangjin-gu and Namyangju too, but this one also has outdoor-table vibes, so I think the atmosphere would be even better after work on a Friday or on the weekend. It was a little warm when I visited, so we sat inside. ## Chobeoljip Apgujeong Rodeo Branch location and valet parking ![Location guide for Chobeoljip Apgujeong Rodeo Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-02-1y0k1-900.webp) It is 90 m from Exit 6 of Apgujeong Rodeo Station. Since it is near the valet booth, you can leave your car for ₩5,000. ![Valet booth near the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-03-15h2u-900.webp) The valet booth is located before you turn left, just before the alley in front of the restaurant. ![Chobeoljip exterior and outdoor-table atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-04-1jsc2-900.webp) ## Robot par-grilling and how to order There is a robot in the restaurant that grills the meat. It par-grills it nicely, so you only need to cook it a little more on the grill at your table, which makes the meal much easier. ![Restaurant robot par-grilling meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-05-1e0tj-900.webp) To order, scan the QR code at the corner of the table and open the link. You order in advance, then pay for everything together when you leave. ![Table QR-code ordering guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-06-sy86p-966.webp) This was the basic table setting. I liked that the salt, wasabi, and ssamjang (Korean dipping paste) came individually rather than being shared. ![Basic setting with salt, wasabi, and ssamjang](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-07-v37z4-900.webp) Along with two kinds of wrap vegetables—perilla leaves and lettuce—you get kimchi, bean sprouts, and pickled side dishes. ![Perilla leaves, lettuce, kimchi, and bean sprout side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-08-14rf0-900.webp) A staff member even recommended grilling the kimchi and bean sprouts, saying they are delicious that way. ## Bone-in pork belly and soft tofu stew for three ![Bone-in pork belly ordered for three people](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-09-1r639-900.webp) The three of us visited and ordered the bone-in pork belly first. The meat attached to the bone is secretly so delicious, right? ![Bone-in pork belly with meat attached to the bone](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-10-1iasg-1200.webp) They also grilled shishito peppers and mushrooms alongside the pork belly. ![Pork belly with shishito peppers and mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-11-igc4l-900.webp) ![Shishito peppers and mushrooms grilling together](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-12-104sv-900.webp) The staff member cut the kimchi into easy-to-eat pieces and grilled it for us too. ![Grilled kimchi cut into easy-to-eat pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-13-1mm7t-900.webp) ![Kimchi and meat grilled by a staff member](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-14-ksddq-900.webp) Because the robot par-grills the meat at just the right temperature and with the right technique, it felt like it cooked very quickly on the table grill. A staff member cooked the entire first round for us, while we cooked the additional meat ourselves. ![Bone-in pork belly finishing on the table grill after par-grilling](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-15-dh3a2-900.webp) We also ordered the soft tofu stew as a side. It comes in something like a jjamppong bowl, and it is generously portioned and pleasantly spicy—perfect with rice. ![Generous, pleasantly spicy soft tofu stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill-16-i830b-900.webp) If the weather has cooled down enough that you want to eat at an outdoor table, try the bone-in pork belly at Chobeoljip in Apgujeong Rodeo! ## Where it is - Chobeoljip Apgujeong Rodeo Branch (초벌집 압구정로데오점) (초벌집 압구정로데오점) - 4 Apgujeong-ro 54-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 압구정로54길 4 1층 - 37.5277285, 127.0394208 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B4%88%EB%B2%8C%EC%A7%91%20%EC%95%95%EA%B5%AC%EC%A0%95%EB%A1%9C%EB%8D%B0%EC%98%A4%EC%A0%90/@37.5277285,127.0394208,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@bedside-drawer/apgujeong-rodeo-pork-grill/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
