Sansol Sinnonhyeon: a pork belly BBQ spot near Sinnonhyeon Station for after-work dinners

🥩 I've been craving meat so much lately, so right after work my friends and I headed to Sansol, a famous Sinnonhyeon pork belly restaurant! It's so talked-about that I'd been wanting to visit forever, and I finally made it happen✨

Sansol Sinnonhyeon hours and parking

• Hours: Daily 16:00–23:00

Staff grill every cut, and no smoke smell on your clothes

At Sansol Sinnonhyeon, staff grill the meat from start to finish. The exterior and atmosphere are clean and upscale, so my expectations shot up the moment we walked in. Since staff handle all the grilling, there's no worry about smells or oil splatters, which made it perfect for chatting cozily with a friend. The meat was thick and had picked up a lovely smoky char, so the juices burst out with every bite... it was pure joy!

The banchan (side dishes) were clean and well-made, and there was a nice variety of sauces that paired well with the meat, so we ate down to the last piece without ever getting tired of it. The dining room was pleasant too, so there was none of that heavy, smoky air you usually carry out of a BBQ place — that made me like it even more! The staff greeted us warmly and the table we were seated at was spacious and comfortable~

Ordering the mixed grill platter: banchan and sauces served with it

After some deliberation over the menu, we picked the mixed platter so we could try a variety of cuts~

As soon as we ordered, neat and fresh banchan started appearing on the table one by one! Thanks to the sauces that go perfectly with meat and the refreshing side dishes, we were already grinning before the main dish even arrived😋

What the mixed grill platter looks like on the grill

The moment the mixed platter finally arrived, I genuinely gasped!

The bright pink color of the meat and its thick cut both radiated freshness.

As it went onto the grill and started turning golden brown, the savory smell filled the air and it was hard to resist~

Can you hear that golden sizzle? Crispy on the outside, moist and juicy on the inside — it was seriously mouthwatering🥩

How the pork belly tastes: first bite with just salt

I tried a piece dipped lightly in salt first, and the moment I bit in, savory flavor burst through my mouth!

The pork belly had zero gamey smell, was tender, and full of juice, so I ate it up without even thinking.

How the texture differs from cut to cut

Ordering the mixed platter meant we got to enjoy distinct textures and flavors from each cut — really appealing!

Every single piece was 0% dry, soft and clean-tasting, so I couldn't stop reaching for more with my chopsticks.

We finished it down to the very last piece and walked out happily patting our full bellies👍

Adding hongge ramyeon (red crab ramyeon) to finish
