# Weekday no-wait Korean BBQ with $5 kids set: 2002 Witch's Arpeggio - By Chaeeon (https://superchart.com/en/@coffee-shop-pauses/) - Written Sep 8, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Namyangju, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This post was written with support from the business for a visit. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@coffee-shop-pauses/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@coffee-shop-pauses/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/index.md) ## In short 2002 Witch's Arpeggio is a Korean BBQ restaurant with creekside outdoor seating in Wabu-eup, Namyangju, Gyeonggi. Visiting on a weekday at opening time with a kid meant no waiting and an outside creek-view table, where the writer had the 5,000-won tteokgalbi (grilled short rib patty) kids set, jar-aged tomato-sauce pork belly, potato pancake, and pollock roe scorched-rice fried rice from the cauldron. The tomato-sauce pork belly, made without gochujang, was clean-tasting enough for both a spice-sensitive adult and a child, earning a promise to come back. ## Good to know - **Address**: 142 Surero661beon-gil, Wabu-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - **Hours**: 11:00 – 21:00 - **Break time**: 15:30 – 17:00 - **Last order**: 20:00 - **Parking**: Large lot in front of the restaurant (plenty of space on weekdays) - **Waiting**: Waiting guests can use the café next door or the 2nd-floor waiting area - **Seating**: Outdoor creekside seats, indoor seats, dog-friendly seats (indoor, not creek-view) - **Kids menu**: Witch's Rice Thief Tteokgalbi Kids Set — ₩5,000 *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* If you're going on a drive around Namyangju, here's a place I want to recommend — a Namyangju Korean BBQ spot with an amazing creekside outdoor-seating vibe, 2002 Witch's Arpeggio!!! It's great for couples to be all couple-y, and even though it's not far, it feels like a proper getaway, so it's also good for group gatherings — a tasty BBQ place. ![Full view of the creekside outdoor seating at 2002 Witch's Arpeggio](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-01-4bm4v-966.webp) *2002 Witch's Arpeggio, an outdoor-seating-vibe restaurant* > 2002 Witch's Arpeggio 📍142 Surero661beon-gil, Wabu-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea ⏱️Hours 11:00–21:00 / Break time 15:30–17:00 / Last order 20:00 ## What about parking and waiting? ![Large open lot for parking in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-02-1w9dx-966.webp) Drove over to this Namyangju BBQ restaurant! On the way up I noticed some people had come by taxi haha ㅇㅅㅇ There's a big open lot right in front of the restaurant, so parking wasn't hard at all (on a weekday). ![Restaurant entrance with no wait at weekday opening time](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-03-13ht3-966.webp) We visited on a weekday right at opening, so there was no wait, but on weekends, since it's such an outdoor-seating-vibe hotspot, there does seem to be waiting!!! If there's a wait, you can wait comfortably either at the café next door or the 2nd-floor waiting area. ## Seasoned pork belly by a clear, babbling creek ![Outdoor dining space stretching along the creek](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-04-12vta-966.webp) I'd already seen videos of the atmosphere here and had it saved for whenever I next had a reason to go to Namyangju — 2002 Witch's Arpeggio! Sure enough, once I got there it felt like a completely different world, such a gorgeous and relaxed space. ![Relaxed-vibe outdoor seating tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-05-1h6l1-966.webp) ![Outdoor seating where you can hear the creek water](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-06-t33gr-966.webp) Right next to the dining tables, a clear creek flows by — I get why this place is even more popular in the middle of summer. Listening to and watching the cool, rushing water while eating delicious pork belly, Arpeggio was pure healing. ![Clear creek water flowing right beside the dining tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-07-fy4kv-966.webp) ![Outdoor seating with a creek view](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-08-w33o8-966.webp) There were indoor seats too, but I feel like it's worth the trip — even worth waiting for — to sit outside haha. It's a dog-friendly restaurant, and there's a separate dog-friendly seating area inside, but unfortunately that one's indoors and not creek-view. ## The menu, and pork belly seasoned without gochujang This Namyangju BBQ restaurant is known for its seasoned pork belly made with tomato sauce instead of gochujang (chili paste)! Every table I looked at was eating that dish haha. No need to agonize over the menu — there are also plenty of sides to enjoy alongside the meat. ![Menu board at 2002 Witch's Arpeggio](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-09-4zpl4-966.webp) The signature dish at this Namyangju date-spot restaurant, tomato-sauce pork belly, apparently uses no gochujang at all — the flavor comes from tomato sauce, pineapple, and various other ingredients. 👍 All the other ingredients seemed carefully chosen and healthy too! ![Sign explaining the ingredients in the tomato-sauce pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-10-x3ivm-966.webp) ![Pork belly aging in a jar](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-11-1kz9i-966.webp) Pork belly aging in a jar — before tasting it you might tilt your head at the idea of tomato sauce?! Don't doubt it, just go visit!! It's the best seasoned pork belly I've had in a while.♥️ ## Witch's Rice Thief tteokgalbi kids set ![Full spread of the Witch's Rice Thief tteokgalbi kids set](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-12-5ybar-966.webp) Since I was visiting with my kid, instead of the spicy seasoned pork belly we ordered the kids menu — 5,000 won worth of happiness. ![A child eating the tteokgalbi kids set](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-13-1cq51-966.webp) Maybe because we were eating out with the creek breeze on us, my kid enjoyed it even more, which was satisfying to see. There's a kids menu, so don't worry about visiting as a family with children. ## Witch's jar-aged tomato-sauce pork belly ![Base side dishes served with the tomato-sauce pork belly order](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-14-nbeyu-966.webp) When you order the tomato-sauce pork belly, a set of base side dishes for wrapping the meat comes out — fresh vegetables, rice crackers, seaweed for wrapping, and a spicy perilla-leaf sauce that cuts through the richness cleanly. ![Unusual tomato kimchi side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-15-1k2g9-966.webp) What was surprising was the tomato kimchi(?) — making something so different out of tomatoes shouldn't work, but it wasn't weird at all, it was charming, a side dish that kept drawing my chopsticks back. ![Full table spread with tomato-sauce pork belly and potato pancake](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-16-oibhr-1200.webp) Once we ordered the tomato-sauce pork belly and the potato pancake, the whole table was full :) First, the dish I was most looking forward to — the tomato-sauce pork belly! It looked thicker and more coated than I expected. A staff member grills the meat for you, and the paper underneath isn't parchment paper — apparently it's eco-friendly hanji (traditional Korean paper)!! 👍 ![Tomato-sauce pork belly grilling on hanji paper](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-17-1cryf-966.webp) ![Staff member grilling the seasoned pork belly on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-18-1cpef-966.webp) The staff kept coming back to flip and grill the meat, so we had nothing to do but sit back and be healed by the creek sounds — the Namyangju date-spot restaurant '2002 Witch's Arpeggio.' The sauce looked like it might be burning, but the meat was cooked just right. The flavor I'd been so curious about — 'wait, this is really tomato sauce?!' — turned out incredibly clean with an explosion of savory depth!! The sauce was so good that I kept reaching for more meat — a real Namyangju pork belly spot. ![Tomato-sauce pork belly wrapped in seaweed and rice crackers](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-19-1hg5b-966.webp) You can wrap the meat various ways in the seaweed and rice crackers served as side dishes, but personally the sauce was so tasty that I was happy just eating the meat plain. ((Next time I definitely have to try the cheese version.)) It wasn't very spicy, so even someone who's sensitive to spice — or even an elementary schooler — could enjoy it happily. Pork belly you could eat many different ways alongside clean side dishes! What I half-doubted about the tomato sauce turned into full confidence, and I'm already planning to come back. ## Witch's crispy-outside, chewy-inside potato pancake ![Witch's crispy-outside, chewy-inside potato pancake](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-20-17hic-966.webp) A side dish just as popular as the pork belly — the potato pancake! ![Cross-section of the crispy potato pancake](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-21-dypoe-966.webp) ![Potato pancake served with pickled onions](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-22-1ik6i-966.webp) The crispiness is on a totally different level from potato pancakes elsewhere — if you're visiting with a group, I definitely recommend ordering this too. Not just the edges, but the entire surface is peak crispy. Yet inside, it stays wonderfully chewy — a potato pancake that everyone, from kids to adults, devoured. Eaten with the pickled onions or the perilla-leaf side dish, it goes down even more cleanly — the kind of dish that makes you think of makgeolli (Korean rice wine) haha. ## Cauldron scorched-rice fried rice loaded with pollock roe If you've had the pork belly, this is the dessert you have to try — scorched-rice fried rice with the savory, salty punch of pollock roe alive in every bite. ![Cauldron scorched-rice fried rice loaded with pollock roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-23-vh1gt-966.webp) After finishing the meat, they make fried rice for you in a small cauldron — with a properly crisped scorched-rice layer plus pollock roe, it made for a satisfying, filling finish. 👍 ## Wrapping up with clean air and creekside healing ![Creek scenery in the clean, open air](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill-24-41jx5-966.webp) Arpeggio, a Namyangju spot known for its vibe and outdoor seating, turned out even more delicious than I expected across every dish — the kind of Namyangju BBQ restaurant that deserves a round of applause. Dipping my feet in the cool creek and soaking up that getaway feeling made it an even better place to visit. If you want good food for a Namyangju date or a gathering, definitely go check it out.♥️ ## Where it is - 2002 Witch's Arpeggio (2002 마녀의 아르페지오) - 142 Surero661beon-gil, Wabu-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 남양주시 와부읍 수레로661번길 142 - 37.6220965, 127.2636562 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/2002%20%EB%A7%88%EB%85%80%EC%9D%98%20%EC%95%84%EB%A5%B4%ED%8E%98%EC%A7%80%EC%98%A4/@37.6220965,127.2636562,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@coffee-shop-pauses/namyangju-weekday-kids-set-valley-grill/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
