In short

The writer booked a room and ordered the 600 mixed set (400g shoulder rack + 200g pork belly) with doenjang jjigae, steamed egg and rice, plus Milkis, a soda rarely found at a meat restaurant.

Hope everyone had a great weekend~? I don't know why cravings hit so hard on weekends 🤤 This past weekend in particular, I was weirdly craving thick, juicy grilled meat from the moment I woke up! 🥩✨

Meat is always love no matter when you eat it 🤤, but this place I visited had such great quality meat and was such a good spot for a date that I really wanted to share it 💖 It's Donbegi, famous for being a Gwangalli meat restaurant.

As soon as I stepped in, the overall cleanliness and tidiness of the space made a great first impression ✨

Liquor display case and pre-searing area on one side of the restaurant

On one side of the store, a fancy liquor display case stood out, and toward the kitchen I could see a dedicated space where they pre-sear the meat to a golden brown before it comes out 🥩🔥

Going upstairs, there was a private room set up on the 2nd floor! I thought booking the 2nd-floor room for gatherings, work dinners, or family meals would be great for enjoying a relaxed time together 👍

On one side of the store, there's a neat self-serve bar where you can easily grab fresh ssam (wrap) vegetables, side dishes, and aprons!

What comes with the 600 mixed set at Donbegi

Ta-da~! ✨ We had booked the room in advance, and as soon as we walked in the table was already fully set — it made me feel pampered right from the start 💖

We sat down and ordered via the tablet, but unfortunately the pork omakase was sold out 🥲 What we ordered instead was the 600g mixed set (400g shoulder rack + 200g pork belly), doenjang jjigae (bean paste stew, medium spice), steamed egg, and 2 bowls of rice.

Tablet requests: extra glasses, new grill plate and more

And one detail that really impressed me while ordering! ✨ Looking at the Donbegi Gwang-an Branch tablet screen, it had everything from glass types (soju glass, beer glass, wine glass, ice glass) to specific requests like "water please," "change the griddle," "remove the flame," and "add scallion salad" all listed as menu items! Whenever something came up during the meal, we didn't have to call a staff member or wait — just one tap and the request went right through. So convenient, and it really showed the owner's thoughtful attention to detail 💖

Milkis at a Korean BBQ restaurant

I was also touched once again when I looked at the drink menu! 🥹 I genuinely love Milkis, but honestly, it's really hard to find a place that sells it at a regular meat restaurant or diner, right?! But when I spotted Milkis right there on the menu, I thought "wow, this place really gets it!" and ordered it without a second thought 💖

Wine lineup and couple's wine set menu

The menu also had a solid wine lineup, including a "couple's wine set" option! This time we enjoyed our meat with Milkis, but I quietly promised myself, "next time I'll definitely book the room again and pair the pork omakase with a glass of wine" 🥂

Shoulder rack and ogeopsal grilled by the staff

Thick shoulder rack on the griddle

After a short wait, the prepared meat arrived, and the thick shoulder rack was carefully grilled on the griddle by a staff member! The moment it hit the griddle, that sizzling, savory smell filled the air, and I was practically drooling while waiting 🤤

Grilled shoulder rack topped with myeongran and baek-kimchi

Finally! The staff member topped it with myeongran (pollack roe) and baek-kimchi (white kimchi)! Honestly... the juices just burst out 💥

Pre-seared pork belly on the griddle

Just grill it lightly for about 50 seconds, so the two of you can chat slowly while you put it on the griddle~

The pre-seared pork belly came out already cut, with the staff explaining it to us like that! Thanks to that, our conversation never got interrupted and we could enjoy a really relaxed meal 😍

Is Donbegi Gwang-an a good date-night spot in Gwangalli?

Between the meat quality, the service, and the comfort of the private room, I found myself thinking, "I have to bring my parents here next time." Donbegi is a place I'd strongly recommend to anyone who wants good atmosphere and delicious, hassle-free meat in Gwangalli! Definitely worth a visit! 👍💖
