After spotting a Gin Jaryoko product placement in a Korean drama, the writer visited and ordered the demiglace donkatsu set for ₩15,000 and sake-don (salmon bowl) for ₩14,000, both with a free 1.5-portion upsize option and self-bar. Aside from the lack of parking support, it's a solid pick for solo dining and a budget-friendly lunch. ## Good to know - **Hours**: 11:00 - 21:00 - **Break time**: 14:30 - 16:30 - **Last order**: 20:30 - **Closed**: Every Wednesday - **Parking**: No basement parking at Geumgang Plaza building; use nearby public parking (no parking support) - **Restroom**: Separate men's/women's restrooms in the building - **Seating**: All bar-table seats, with basket storage under each chair - **Service**: Solo dining, takeout, delivery, and local currency accepted; free 1.5-portion (large) upsize - **Upsize note**: ₩3,000 environmental fee if food is left over after upsizing - **Demiglace donkatsu set**: ₩15,000 - **Sake-don**: ₩14,000 - **Price reference**: ₩15,000 ≈ $11 · ₩14,000 ≈ $10 · ₩3,000 ≈ $2.2 (2026-09-21) *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* Hours are 11:00 - 21:00, with a break time of 14:30 - 16:30, last order at 20:30, and closed every Wednesday.

I was watching the drama 'Chaebol Detective 2' and saw a Gin Jaryoko product placement ad that looked so delicious I thought, I really have to try this...! Then I found out there was an Ansan Gojan branch, so I went right away 🤍 By the way, neither the building's basement lot nor the public parking lot offered free parking support...!ㅠㅠ On weekends the public parking lot opens for free, so keep that in mind if you're visiting! ![Order kiosk in front of the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-02-1uad5-m-900.webp) ### Order at the kiosk by the entrance At Gin Jaryoko Ansan Gojan Branch, you order at the kiosk right at the entrance. ![Bar-table interior of Gin Jaryoko Ansan Gojan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-03-1lxcc-900.webp) ![Bar-table seating, good for solo dining](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-04-1ljml-900.webp) ## Inside — all bar-table seats, great for solo dining All the seating at Gin Jaryoko Ansan Gojan Branch is bar-table style, so it looks like a comfortable, no-pressure spot for solo diners! When I visited during lunch hour, there were indeed a lot of people eating alone. ![Basket for storage under each chair](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-05-i1q97-900.webp) There's a basket under each chair for storing your bag or belongings, so you can comfortably tuck them away below. ![Menu board for set meals and udon](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-06-m7rjp-902.webp) ## Menu — set meals, curry dishes, udon, and a free 1.5-portion add-on The Gin Jaryoko menu is made up of set meals, curry dishes, and udon (hot/cold). It's really great that you can add a free 1.5 portion to any menu item 👍🏻 ![Menu board listing curry dishes and udon](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-07-9i6ey-m-900.webp) ![Self-bar with miso soup and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-08-gukct-900.webp) ### Self-bar At the self-bar you can help yourself to miso soup, diced radish kimchi, and pickled radish on a small plate. Water is from a water purifier too! ![Self-bar water purifier and small plate corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-09-3n5yh-900.webp) ### How to use Gin Jaryoko - Order at the kiosk; check your number, and they'll call your number when the food is ready. - Water, side dishes, miso soup, and small plates are all self-serve at the self-bar next to the kiosk. ![In-store usage guide sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-10-1k46m-900.webp) You can get a free 1.5-portion upsize, but if you leave food over after upsizing, there's a ₩3,000 environmental fee (only when upsized)! ![Sign about free 1.5-portion upsize and environmental fee](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-11-qpr7b-900.webp) There's also a receipt review event. If you take part in the Naver receipt review event, you get a canned drink on the house. ![Naver receipt review event sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-12-11h58-900.webp) ## What we ordered — demiglace donkatsu set ₩15,000, sake-don ₩14,000 We ordered the demiglace donkatsu set for ₩15,000 and sake-don for ₩14,000. ![Table setup with demiglace donkatsu set and sake-don](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-13-1gx1r-900.webp) ### Demiglace donkatsu set Unlike the regular demiglace donkatsu, the set comes with a sweet potato croquette and fried shrimp on top! The regular demiglace donkatsu apparently comes with 3 pieces of cutlet. It looked so delicious 💗 The sauce comes poured over by default, so if you're the type who likes to dip rather than pour, just ask the staff in advance! ![Demiglace donkatsu set with sauce poured over](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-14-1c49q-900.webp) ![Donkatsu with demiglace and mustard sauce on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-15-viq5v-900.webp) There was mustard sauce served on the plate too — I didn't realize mustard and donkatsu went so well together? It had been a while since I'd had donkatsu, and it was so good. The regular size already comes with a generous 2 pieces of cutlet, so the 1.5-portion is really something only big eaters should order...! ![Cross-section of a piece of donkatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-16-15uql-900.webp) ![Donkatsu dipped in mustard sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-17-3iyjs-900.webp) The fried shrimp and sweet potato croquette that came with it were really soft, and with tartar sauce they were so tasty 👍🏻 ![Fried shrimp and sweet potato croquette served with the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-18-i3dxn-900.webp) ![Fried shrimp dipped in tartar sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-19-elhjx-900.webp) ### Sake-don (salmon rice bowl) Have I ever seen a bowl this big before...? The sake-don came plated beautifully inside a huge bowl. Because of the large bowl, the portion might look small, but there's plenty of food...! ![Sake-don salmon rice bowl served in a large bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-20-o5b3w-900.webp) ![Sake-don with house-made soy sauce and wasabi](https://img.superchart.com/images/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set-21-1f7hk-900.webp) You pour Gin Jaryoko's house-made soy sauce all over, then put the salmon on top of the rice and eat it with wasabi. The salmon melts in your mouth, and the soy sauce isn't too salty, so you should pour it on generously! ## Wrap-up If you're looking for a budget-friendly donkatsu place in Gojan-dong, Ansan, I recommend Gin Jaryoko Ansan Gojan Branch! ## Where it is - Gin Jaryoko Ansan Gojan Branch (긴자료코 안산고잔점) - 56 Gwangdeokseo-ro, Unit 107, Danwon-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 안산시 단원구 광덕서로 56 107호 - 37.309789, 126.8273272 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B8%B4%EC%9E%90%EB%A3%8C%EC%BD%94%20%EC%95%88%EC%82%B0%EA%B3%A0%EC%9E%94%EC%A0%90/@37.309789,126.8273272,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@beyond-the-kitchen/ginza-ryoko-ansan-gojan-demiglace-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
