Craving hot soup on a cloudy day, the writer ordered the extra-large dak kalguksu for 12,000 won, dak gomtang (chicken soup) for 11,000 won and chewy dumplings for 6,000 won, and the big chicken leg and firm, chewy noodles stood out. Of the three dishes at Eonyang Dak Kalguksu, the chicken kalguksu is the one worth ordering again. ## Good to know - **Address**: 160-15 Haedoji-ro, 1st floor, units 129-132, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon - **Hours**: 11am–9pm (daily) - **Chicken kalguksu (extra-large)**: 12,000 won - **Dak gomtang (chicken soup)**: 11,000 won - **Chewy dumplings**: 6,000 won - **Seating**: Spacious hall, with a solo-dining corner and several chargers to one side - **Self-bar**: Plates, ladles and other tools, plus spicy and mild fresh kimchi - **Cooking note**: House-made noodles need 15 minutes to cook *as written by the visitor on Sep 4, 2026* Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch in Songdo, Incheon ![Signature photo of dak kalguksu at Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-01-rzshl-1200.webp) > #self-made noodles and a soup done right > #a great space for solo dining > #the addictive signature spicy kimchi > Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch > 160-15 Haedoji-ro, 1st floor, units 129-132, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, South Korea > 11am – 9pm (daily) ## Hot soup in Songdo on a cloudy day: Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch When it comes to eating in Songdo, Incheon, there are so many good restaurants and such a wide variety of menus. But this particular day was cloudy, and I really wanted hot soup with noodles. So I headed to Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch! I tried the dak kalguksu, dak gomtang, and dumplings together. To cut to the conclusion, out of everything I ate that day, the self-made kalguksu noodles were what I liked most. The texture was great, and above all, the soup was really delicious. ![Hanok-style exterior of Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-02-1ouc9-966.webp) ![Exterior of the Eonyang Dak Kalguksu restaurant on Haedoji-ro, Songdo](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-03-le4wl-966.webp) The hanok-style exterior of Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch ![Menu and price board posted outside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-04-10txj-966.webp) The menu and prices are posted clearly out front, so you can take a quick look before going in! ![Spacious dining hall interior under soft lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-05-1mvwd-966.webp) ![Corner of the restaurant set up with solo dining seats](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-06-x2zsn-966.webp) ## A spacious hall with solo seats and phone chargers Inside, the spacious hall under soft lighting felt open and airy, and I loved that there was a dedicated solo-dining corner off to one side! Right next to it were several chargers, which made it feel like the perfect spot for solo diners! ### What is on the self-bar? The self-bar has the tools you need — plates, ladles — plus spicy and mild dressed kimchi (geotjeori)! That's the signature at every Eonyang Dak Kalguksu branch! The spicy geotjeori!!!! It's seriously spicy!!! Haha ![Self-bar with spicy and mild dressed kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-07-1elxs-966.webp) ![Plates, ladles, and other tools at the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-08-wyfij-966.webp) ![Scooping dressed kimchi from the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-09-1tis2-966.webp) ## Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch menu and prices The menu includes dak kalguksu, dak gomtang, boiled pork (suyuk), soy-braised jjimdak, spicy jjimdak, chogye guksu (cold chicken noodles), and chewy dumplings!! Seeing it all today, I'm now curious about the chogye guksu too~ ![Menu board listing dak kalguksu and jjimdak](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-10-12c8d-966.webp) ![Table setting with a note about the 15-minute self-made noodle cook time](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-11-7gs19-966.webp) They say the self-made noodles need 15 minutes to cook! The table comes set with plates, salt, pepper, cups, and a bone bowl~ > Order details) > Dak kalguksu (large) 12,000 > Dak gomtang 11,000 > Chewy dumplings 6,000 ![Full spread of large dak kalguksu, dak gomtang, and chewy dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-12-11nw8-966.webp) Our large dak kalguksu, dak gomtang, and chewy dumplings arrived! The dishes came out one by one, and just the aroma rising from the hot soup got my appetite going. ![Steaming bowl of large dak kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-13-n34tn-966.webp) ## Extra-large chicken kalguksu, 12,000 won: how were the broth and noodles? I started with the dak kalguksu. I took a spoonful of the broth first, and it had a deep, rich flavor. ![Spoonful of dak kalguksu broth lifted from the bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-14-4b4we-966.webp) At first sip it's clean yet deep, and once you eat the noodles alongside it, the broth soaks naturally into the noodles and each bite gets even more intense. It has that long-simmered kind of depth, so my spoon kept going back for more. ![Whole large chicken leg in the soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-15-1vmg4-966.webp) ![Dipping the chicken leg into peppered salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-16-jtlv8-966.webp) There's a whole giant chicken leg in there! It was a pretty big chicken leg~ You've got to dip it in the peppered salt for the full flavor! ![Dak kalguksu broth with added perilla powder](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-17-ewvpd-966.webp) I love perilla, so I added some perilla powder~ It gets even nuttier and cleaner-tasting~ ![Lifting up the self-made kalguksu noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-18-13uy6-966.webp) Maybe because they're self-made kalguksu noodles, the texture was great. They weren't too soft or mushy — there was a nice chewiness, so the noodles really held their own alongside the broth. Personally, when it comes to kalguksu, the broth matters, but I care quite a bit about noodle texture too, and this time the noodles were especially memorable. And the geotjeori pairs perfectly with these noodles soaked in that broth!!! ## Dak gomtang (chicken soup), 11,000 won Even though it uses the same chicken, the dak gomtang had a different feel from the dak kalguksu. And again, that huge chicken leg visual~ ![Bowl of dak gomtang with a chicken leg inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-19-44wak-966.webp) Eaten with rice, it becomes a filling meal, and eating the chicken together with the broth gives you a clean yet warm flavor. If you're like me and love noodles but only feel like you've really eaten when there's rice, you'll probably like the dak gomtang too. ## Chewy dumplings, 6,000 won ![Plate of chewy dumplings served at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-20-ttb9e-966.webp) ![Close-up of the chewy dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-21-19is9-966.webp) I can't leave out the dumplings we ordered alongside. ![Dumpling split in half showing the filling](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-22-ikfi0-966.webp) ![Dumpling showing its chewy skin](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-23-516mr-966.webp) The dumplings had a striking chewy bite the moment you took a bite. The dumpling skin wasn't too soft or mushy — it had a springy texture when you chewed it, which made for a great mouthfeel. A bite of kalguksu, then a dumpling, and you get a completely different texture from the noodles — really nice. After eating nothing but dak kalguksu for a while, adding dumplings in between kept the meal from feeling monotonous. ![A bite of dumpling paired with the kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch-24-pcjlb-966.webp) The dumpling skin was really chewy, which I loved, and the filling was tasty too, so it paired well with the kalguksu. ## Which of the three dishes is worth ordering again? I tried all three menu items, but after finishing everything, the one I kept thinking about was, of course, the dak kalguksu. Especially as someone who loves noodles, the texture of the self-made noodles was quite satisfying, and the broth wasn't a flavor you finish after a spoonful or two — it was the kind you keep dipping into along with the noodles. On a day when I'm craving hot broth and chewy noodles in Songdo, I think I'd choose the dak kalguksu again. I think I'd order it again on my next visit too. So if you're looking for a good dak kalguksu spot in Songdo, Incheon, Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch is one I'd think of. ### Who will like Eonyang Dak Kalguksu in Songdo? - Anyone looking for a good kalguksu restaurant in Songdo, Incheon - Anyone craving dak kalguksu in Songdo - Fans of self-made kalguksu noodles - Anyone who loves a deep, rich broth with noodles - Anyone who also enjoys warm soup dishes like dak gomtang - Anyone who wants kalguksu and dumplings together - Anyone wanting a filling meal If you especially care about noodle texture, I think it's worth trying the self-made kalguksu noodles here at least once. ## Where it is - Eonyang Dak Kalguksu Incheon Songdo Branch (언양닭칼국수 인천송도점) - 160-15 Haedoji-ro, 1st floor, units 129-132, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, South Korea - 인천광역시 연수구 해돋이로 160-15 1층 129-132호 - 37.3958572, 126.6461599 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%96%B8%EC%96%91%EB%8B%AD%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%EC%9D%B8%EC%B2%9C%EC%86%A1%EB%8F%84%EC%A0%90/@37.3958572,126.6461599,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@behind-the-storefront/songdo-dak-kalguksu-gopbaegi-mandu-lunch/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
