Gongneung all-you-can-eat Iberico pork BBQ with ₩3,000 beer: Eongteori

I've been hanging out around Gongneung Station a lot lately and was always disappointed there was no all-you-can-eat frozen pork belly place nearby — so today I visited the newly opened Eongteori Muhandae Pae Gongneung Branch to review it!

• Location: 83 Dongil-ro 192-gil, 2nd floor, Nowon-gu, Seoul
• Hours: Daily 12:00–03:00

How to walk to Eongteori Gongneung Branch from Gongneung Station, and is there parking?

Eongteori is a well-located pork belly restaurant in Gongneung, just a 5-minute walk from Exit 1 of Gongneung Station. Parking isn't available, so keep that in mind if you're driving!

Inside Eongteori Gongneung Branch: is it big enough for group dinners?

This place is clearly the standout spot in Gongneung for all-you-can-eat pork with variety, since the restaurant was packed with people. There were groups dining too, so if you're planning a group meal or gathering in Gongneung, this place could work well!

What does Eongteori Gongneung Branch cost per person, and how much are drinks?

Orders are placed through a T-order tablet on the table. The price for an adult at Eongteori was ₩17,900. In this era of high prices, offering not just plain pork belly but a variety of cuts at this price makes it one of the best value restaurants in Gongneung.

The drink prices here are also a great deal — soju is ₩3,000, beer is ₩3,000, and you can drink unlimited soju for ₩5,900 per person. I was more in the mood for beer than soju today, so I ordered that instead.

• All-you-can-eat pork belly, per person: ₩17,900
• Beer: ₩3,000

Which cuts you get: Iberico, Duroc, marbled pork belly and frozen pork belly

At Eongteori, even the thin-sliced pork belly comes in varieties like Iberico and Duroc, and you can also try flower pork belly and frozen pork belly by cut. I naturally assumed an 'unlimited thin-sliced pork belly' place would only have thin slices, so I was amazed such variety was even possible at this price!

The Hangang ramen and fried rice corner and the self-serve vegetable bar

There's also an all-you-can-eat Hangang ramen and fried rice corner, and it was noticeably better stocked than other all-you-can-eat spots in Gongneung. The vegetable self-bar had plenty of lettuce wraps and grilling vegetables, all looking fresh.

What order to grill the pork in, and which cut to try first

I put the meat I brought over straight onto the grill, and since it was frozen pork belly, it cooked quickly — nice. There was garlic, bean sprouts, kimchi, and mushrooms too, so I went for the full set of grilling vegetables. Putting the kimchi and bean sprouts where the fat drains off is my personal pro tip!

If I had to recommend from what I tried, both the Duroc and Iberico thin-sliced pork belly were great, and I'd especially recommend the flower pork belly for its great look. If you like thick-cut pork belly, go for the frozen pork belly — you can pick whatever suits your taste!

Grill it, set it on the shredded scallions to cool a bit, throw the next batch on the grill, go grab more meat — it's basically an endless cycle. If you come to Eongteori Muhandae Pae Gongneung Branch, try tackling it this way too. Wash it all down with a sip of beer and — ahh — it really hits the spot.

Is Eongteori Gongneung Branch worth it? Final verdict

Today I visited Eongteori Muhandae Pae Gongneung Branch, a pork belly restaurant near Gongneung Station, and the all-you-can-eat lineup was solid and the value was great. The restaurant is also spacious, so it seems like a good fit for family gatherings or group dinners. I'd definitely recommend it for a work dinner in Gongneung!
