*as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026*

I was looking for somewhere to grab dinner and a drink with a friend when I landed on Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan. As someone who loves yukhoe (raw beef tartare), the menu that let me have Korean beef yukhoe together with sea urchin caught my eye — but once I actually sat down to eat, it wasn't just the main dishes that stuck with me, even the basic side dishes were memorable.

When I'm hunting for a good restaurant in Sinyongsan, I care about the space as much as the food, and this place had a wide hall plus a variety of rooms, so it also looked like a solid pick for a Sinyongsan office dinner.

## Where is Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan, and what is the space like?

Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan is at 13 Hangang-daero 40-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 3rd floor. The Yukhoegwan Black sign is big and visible from the 1st floor, so it wasn't hard to find.

![Building elevator entrance leading up to the 3rd-floor restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe-02-18pp6-m-900.webp)

The restaurant is on the 3rd floor, so you just take the elevator up.

The entrance is neatly kept from the start — the kind of place that felt totally comfortable for an evening meal with a friend.

Once inside, the hall was much bigger than I expected. There's a main hall in the middle with rooms arranged on either side.

### How many people fit in the private rooms?

Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan has a room big enough for 8–10 people, great for eating together in a group. It's private enough for conversation, so it should suit people looking for a Yongsan office dinner venue too.

There's also a separate 4-person room. For smaller gatherings or a quieter meal, this kind of space seems comfortable.

The main hall has plenty of seats too and feels spacious, so if you're looking for a Yongsan restaurant or Yongsan bar that can also handle large groups, this is worth keeping in mind.

I liked that they run both rooms and the hall together, so you can pick your seating depending on the type of gathering.

There were photos on the wall from when the place was featured on the TV show Gogi Seomanana. Knowing it's been on TV made me even more curious about the menu.

One wall was also covered with autographs from famous celebrities. Made me think quite a lot of people have visited.

They stock everything from sake to whisky, so it's a good spot not just for a meal but for drinks too. With a lineup like that, this could easily work as a Sinyongsan bar.

## Korean beef yukhoe and sea urchin platter: what they cost

That day at Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan I ordered Korean beef yukhoe for ₩42,000, the sea urchin platter (uni han-sang) for ₩37,000, a Suntory Kakubin highball for ₩10,000, and some other drinks.

Once seated, seaweed soup (miyeokguk) comes automatically. It wasn't just broth — it was loaded with generous ingredients, so I kept going back for spoonfuls while drinking.

The order that day was Korean beef yukhoe plus the sea urchin platter, along with the Suntory Kakubin highball. We added soju on top of that. Laid out together, the yukhoe and sea urchin looked pretty appetizing right off the bat.

The sea urchin comes ready to eat with gim malt (dried seaweed strips), sushi rice and more. It's more fun to build your own combinations than just eating it plain.

The yukhoe is sliced with a soft grain and comes with minari (Korean watercress) mixed in. Even before mixing in the egg yolk, a nutty sesame oil aroma rises up, and the fragrance of the minari blended beautifully with the beef.

### Lemon soju made with half-frozen Chamisul

And for anyone who likes to drink, the icy Chamisul soju is worth noting. It comes with half a lemon and a container so you can make your own lemon soju.

I squeezed the lemon and mixed it into the soju myself. The bright lemon scent made it perfect for sipping alongside the yukhoe.

Cheers with a friend over dinner — beef or yukhoe just isn't complete without soju.

The seaweed soup is refillable too. Packed with seaweed and other ingredients, it was great for spooning up between bites and paired well as a drinking snack.

Also had a glass of the Suntory Kakubin highball. It has a cleaner feel than soju, so it was nice to alternate between the two while eating the yukhoe.

## Same-day butchered Korean beef yukhoe: how was the texture?

Once you pop the egg yolk and mix it evenly through the yukhoe, you're ready to really dig in! The minari brought fragrance and the yolk added nuttiness — personally, this combination was a favorite.

Apparently they use 100% same-day slaughtered Korean beef, raw and freshly trimmed, for both the mungtigi (cubed raw beef) and the yukhoe. Maybe that's why the meat had a springy chew instead of going limp, with the savory flavor building the more you chewed. There was none of that watery or mushy texture you sometimes get from frozen meat — you could really feel the elasticity in every fiber.

### Gamtae seaweed, gim or crackers: which pairing worked best?

I wrapped some in gamtae (seaweed flakes) with sushi rice and sea urchin, and also topped gim with cheese, yukhoe, and pear. Even the same yukhoe tastes different depending on what you pair it with.

![A bite of gamtae topped with sushi rice and sea urchin](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe-18-kxs52-900.webp)

The combination I loved most was crackers topped with cheese, yukhoe, pear, and my favorite black sesame sauce. Gim with sea urchin, sushi rice, and wasabi was also clean and refreshing.

Seeing the icy soju again, I couldn't resist one more glass...

![Icy Chamisul soju served with lemon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe/yukhoegwan-black-sinyongsan-hanwoo-yukhoe-21-193io-900.webp)

And the surprise discovery was the cold pasta that comes as a basic side — this was genuinely delicious. The pasta was well coated in a cold, nutty sauce, and taking a bite between mouthfuls of yukhoe felt like a palate reset. Even though it's just a complimentary dish, I finished every bit of it happily.

They're also running a review event, so if you're planning a visit, that's worth keeping in mind!

Looking at the menu, there were plenty of dishes that would intrigue any yukhoe lover, like same-day slaughtered mungtigi and an assorted sea urchin and raw beef sashimi platter. I'd like to try more of the menu next time.

## Final verdict on Yukhoegwan Black Sinyongsan

Yukhoegwan Black felt like a place that genuinely cares about ingredients. They apparently source everything directly, from domestic chili powder to mill-pressed sesame oil and Guérande salt, and above all, their principle of using only same-day slaughtered Korean beef for both mungtigi and yukhoe really showed in the flavor. Yongsan yukhoe restaurant, confirmed!

Above all, with everything from rooms to a spacious hall, the range of spaces seemed genuinely useful for anyone looking for a Sinyongsan office dinner or Yongsan office dinner venue. Having options from small gatherings to large group dinners is a real plus.

If you're looking for somewhere to eat dinner in Sinyongsan, or hunting for a Sinyongsan restaurant or Sinyongsan bar, this is a good place to remember for enjoying yukhoe with a drink. With more restaurants and bars popping up around Sinyongsan lately as people search out the next Yongsan hotspot, this was a nice place to stop by on a day I wanted yukhoe and a drink in a clean, tidy space.
