On a second visit after Uiwang Lake Park, the writer, her mother and her kids ordered 2 servings of selenium duck brisket BBQ, a kids' assorted seafood egg soup and doenjang (soybean paste) stew. The duck brisket was good, but the seafood egg soup and doenjang stew are the dishes she would order again at Deo Chadol. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1F, 5 Dwitgol 2-ro, Gwacheon, Gyeonggi - **Hours**: Daily 11 a.m.–9:30 p.m. - **Break time**: Mon–Fri 3–5 p.m.; no break on weekends - **Parking**: Private lot in front of the restaurant - **Waiting**: Enter your phone number on the tablet and come in within 5 minutes of the alert - **What we ordered**: 2 servings of selenium duck brisket BBQ, kids' assorted seafood egg soup, 2 bowls of rice, BBQ-house doenjang stew - **Courses**: Couple course up to 4-person course; extra single servings can be added - **Seating**: Central hall and several private rooms; rooms can be booked; limited seating for groups of 6 or more - **Amenities**: Self-serve bar, several types of baby chairs, kids' cutlery *as written by the visitor on Nov 7, 2026 · not checked with the business* ## Back at Gwacheon's Deo Chadol after Uiwang Lake Park This was my second visit to Deo Chadol (더차돌) in Gwacheon! I recently took my mom and the kids there for dinner. The first time, we stopped by with my husband and the kids on the way back from Seoul Land, and I loved it so much that I knew we'd be back. This time my husband was away on a business trip, so the kids, my mom and I went to Uiwang Lake Park. On the way home, both Mom and the kids said they wanted meat. Meat lovers, haha! Deo Chadol popped into my head right away. It's famous as a Gwacheon restaurant near Seoul Land, and coming back after a while was a total success again. ![Main photo of Deo Chadol, a duck restaurant in Gwacheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-01-qd9ms-1200.webp) ## Deo Chadol location, hours and parking Deo Chadol is at 5 Dwitgol 2-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi (1st floor), open daily from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Monday to Friday there's a break from 3 to 5 p.m.; on weekends there's no break. There's also a private parking lot. ![Exterior and location of Deo Chadol in Gwacheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-02-y4vc7-900.webp) Deo Chadol is a well-known duck restaurant in Gwacheon, and its location is great for a meal after an outing to Seoul Land or Uiwang Lake Park, so I'd strongly recommend it for a family meal. For parking, use the spaces in front of the restaurant. I think there's someone helping with parking at peak meal times, but we came early in the evening and nobody was there. ![Parking spaces in front of Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-03-f6eri-878.webp) Ducks in the yard, on the building, inside... whichever way you look at it, even squinting, this is a duck restaurant. Deo Chadol, Gwacheon's duck BBQ spot! ![Deo Chadol's yard and building full of duck decorations](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-04-hrrrq-900.webp) ### How does waiting work at Deo Chadol? Enter your phone number on the waiting tablet and you'll get an alert; you have to come in within 5 minutes of it. So don't wander far! I also liked that the waiting area is enclosed to keep out the cold, with Son Heung-min waiting alongside you. For parties of 6 or more, seating is limited and the wait can get long, so I strongly recommend reserving before you go. ![Deo Chadol waiting area and waiting tablet](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-05-v4noy-889.webp) ![Waiting guide at the Deo Chadol entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-06-11kst-m-893.webp) We also saw awards and certificates from Gwacheon city for restaurants. It caught my eye that the place is recognized locally too, haha. It's not a one-visit place; you end up coming back, and I'm clearly not the only one, haha. ## Deo Chadol menu and what we ordered with the kids Deo Chadol has courses from the couple course up to the 4-person course, so it covers two people up to a big group, and you can add extra orders one serving at a time, which is nice. Oh, haha, and the left side of the menu is what you get for writing a Naver review, and there are not one but 5 options. Amazing, right? A soda lover lives in our house, so we got a soda. The right side is... what? Bead ice cream?! Hahahaha. Deo Chadol's owner is too much, haha. Parents' wallets, empty, empty, empty, haha. I bet lots of parents promise to buy it if the kids eat their duck well, haha. ![Deo Chadol menu and review event notice](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-07-1ru7o-900.webp) Here's what we ordered that day. - 2 servings of selenium duck brisket BBQ - Kids' seafood egg soup - 2 bowls of rice - Doenjang stew (soybean paste stew) from the BBQ menu Honestly, people at other tables were eating the spicy marinated duck all around us and I really wanted it, but since we were eating with the kids, haha, I sadly saved it for next time. Still, the duck brisket BBQ we ordered was delicious. It's thin and easy to eat, so good for eating with kids, and you can enjoy the nutty flavor that's typical of duck. Highly recommend!! ## Inside Deo Chadol: rooms, baby chairs and duck dolls everywhere ![Bead ice cream display at the Deo Chadol entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-08-jon6p-900.webp) Yep, haha. Did you think the bead ice cream was only on the menu? Nope, it's big right at the entrance, haha. To avoid it, cover your kids' eyes as you walk in!! Hahaha. And you can't get caught on the way out either. Deo Chadol also has a lot of celebrity autographs hanging inside. Printing out the celebrities' faces next to them is such a nice touch! With signatures alone you often can't read the handwriting, right? The ones that caught my eye were Lee Young-ja, Ryu Seung-ryong and Go Joon-hee! Maybe because Deo Chadol's owner is from the entertainment world, it's a celebrity hangout!! ![Celebrity autographs hanging inside Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-09-lbkx5-900.webp) ![Celebrity autographs and photos on the wall at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-10-1fntu-900.webp) ![Celebrity autograph display inside Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-11-7fz79-900.webp) ### Is it easy to visit with kids? Deo Chadol has a huge variety of baby chairs, so no worries at all. Inside, there's a big hall in the center, with Room 1 at the back and more rooms on the right side of the entrance. Besides regular tables there are several rooms, which looked good for family gatherings or group meals. We went at an awkward early-evening hour. I deliberately avoided peak meal time so we could eat a bit more comfortably with the kids, but the tables were almost full and the rooms were packed with customers too. My mom looked around and said this place must do really well. If you want a room or a relaxed meal, I recommend reserving ahead. ### What's at the Deo Chadol self bar? Deo Chadol has a well-stocked self bar too. While eating you always end up wanting more side dishes or other things, and I liked that you can just grab as much as you want from the self bar. ![Side dish corner at the Deo Chadol self bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-12-1szli-900.webp) The mussam (thin pickled radish wraps) and the pickled perilla leaves were so good that I went back for refills 3 times. They also have sesame oil, black sesame salad dressing, wet wipes and kids' spoons and chopsticks. ![Mussam and pickled perilla leaves at the Deo Chadol self bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-13-1c2n3-878.webp) ![Sauces and kids' spoons at the Deo Chadol self bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-14-wg2yw-900.webp) ![Neatly kept interior of Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-15-11thy-900.webp) A BBQ restaurant can easily feel chaotic or greasy, but Deo Chadol is kept neat and clean overall, which I liked. And the cute duck dolls are fun to hunt for in every corner! As a duck specialist, it has duck props hidden all over, so searching for them one by one with the kids is fun too, haha. ![Duck doll props around Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-16-17vbn-900.webp) ![Duck props hidden inside Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-17-1bnfp-900.webp) Not just full marks but five times full marks, Gwacheon's Deo Chadol. If you like duck, I really hope you'll try it here at least once. ## Selenium duck brisket BBQ: a taste that satisfied adults and kids Deo Chadol set out the basic wraps, side dishes and a salad. The salad was topped with my favorite black sesame dressing, so I ate way too much of it, shh, secret, haha. ![Deo Chadol basic wraps, side dishes and black sesame salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-18-hlbkg-900.webp) We ordered rice for the kids and my mom, and it was mixed with black rice, which I loved. ![Rice mixed with black rice at Deo Chadol](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-19-6b03t-900.webp) ![Deo Chadol selenium duck brisket BBQ table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-20-1kcif-900.webp) The duck brisket BBQ arrived. My eldest, who's obsessed with grilling meat lately, said she'd do the grilling, haha. With my eldest grilling and my mom helping, I'm a very comfortable mom. I never thought a BBQ restaurant could be this easy. Thank you, Mom 🩷 ### Is the kids' seafood egg soup worth ordering without kids? The kids' seafood egg soup is what I always order at Deo Chadol. Don't assume it's only for kids because of the word "kids" in the name! If you like seafood, I hope you'll order it even without children. The soft egg soup mixed with seafood is easy to eat and goes really well between bites of meat. It has a fairly wide variety of seafood, so it's good for nutrition and texture, and perfect for kids. It's a kids' menu, but I recommend it even without kids!! If I had to pick one can't-go-wrong side at Deo Chadol, it would be this seafood egg soup. ### Why is the Deo Chadol doenjang stew recommended? Besides the seafood egg soup, you must also order Deo Chadol's doenjang stew! At a BBQ place it's easy to think of doenjang stew as something you order to finish the meal, but this one is really good. I came for duck, and the doenjang stew was so good I couldn't tell whether this is a duck place or a doenjang stew place. ![Deo Chadol BBQ-style doenjang stew and seafood egg soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-21-j1kv1-900.webp) Adding the insanely delicious pajeori (seasoned scallion salad) from the side dishes is sooo good~~ ![Duck brisket BBQ grilled on top of onions](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-22-f5sdb-900.webp) The thin duck cooks quickly, and I put it on top of the onions, so the onions get glossy in the duck fat, a two-for-one. With the doenjang stew, the egg soup and the duck all wrapped in a leaf, it vanished in no time. The men at the next table were eating ![Grill plate with stir-fried kimchi at the next table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-23-9skps-900.webp) ![Stir-fried kimchi and beer at the next table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations-24-10z99-900.webp) stir-fried kimchi with Terra and Hite Zero beer, and it looked so, so good that I snapped a photo, haha. ## Second visit to Gwacheon's Deo Chadol, spicy marinated duck next My second visit to Deo Chadol with my mom and the kids was another satisfying meal. It was a great stop on the way back from spending time with the kids at Uiwang Lake Park, and it made the evening even nicer that Mom and the kids ate so well. The duck brisket BBQ was delicious, but personally I'd definitely recommend the kids' seafood egg soup and the BBQ-style doenjang stew. Next time I'll go back with my husband to try the spicy marinated duck I missed. If you're looking for a good meal after a Seoul Land outing, or a duck restaurant in Gwacheon to eat with family, I recommend Deo Chadol. ## Where it is - Deo Chadol (더차돌) - 5 Dwitgol 2-ro, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi, South Korea - 경기도 과천시 뒷골2로 5 1층 - 37.4533362, 127.001765 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%8D%94%EC%B0%A8%EB%8F%8C/@37.4533362,127.001765,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@cafe-corners/gwacheon-duck-dinner-three-generations/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
