On a visit for two, Jin 1926 served French rack (200g) for 33,000 won cooked medium-rare and lamb ribs (240g) for 31,000 won cooked medium, plus jin-teukseon-bap (6,000 won), a gondre and pollock roe rice eaten wrapped in dried seaweed.

Here's my honest review, from the lamb ribs all the way to the gondre pollock roe rice! ![Photo record of the visit to Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-02-1yvjc-966.webp) ![Lamb table setup at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-03-1h4j5-966.webp) ## How to find Jin 1926 Dasan Branch, and where to park Jin 1926, a favorite for lamb near Dasan Station, is about a 5-minute walk from Dasan Station on Line 8. ![Exterior of the building housing Jin 1926 Dasan Branch near Dasan Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-04-djs1y-966.webp) It sits right on the main commercial street of Dasan Station, so it was easy to get to by public transit, and there's a basement parking lot in the building too, so there's zero parking stress. ## Inside Jin 1926: dining room with privacy panels Walking in, I found a warm, upscale dining room with a wood finish. There were bar-style seats and regular 4-person tables, spaced out comfortably. What I liked most was that each bar seat and table has its own splash panel so oil doesn't fly toward guests — no worries about smell or grease, and a really pleasant meal overall. It felt equally right for a cozy date with a partner or a group gathering — a solid spot for lamb near Dasan Station. ![Wood-finished dining room seating at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-05-13bco-966.webp) ![Table with splash panel installed at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-06-w010q-966.webp) ## Jin 1926 menu and what two people ordered Once seated, I looked over the menu. This Dasan lamb favorite, Jin 1926, offers prime lamb cuts hand-picked from only the top grades, plus some distinctive rice dishes. ![Menu board at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-07-47kd4-966.webp) Worth noting: there's an ongoing event where writing a Naver receipt review gets you one extra lamb rib — definitely grab that if you visit! My partner and I ordered the following for two: - French rack (200g): ₩33,000 - Lamb ribs (240g): ₩31,000 - Jin-teukseon-bap (gondre pollock roe rice): ₩6,000 ## Smoky mung bean sprout stir-fry and the side dishes ![Basic side dishes and sauce setup at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-08-1ylj6-966.webp) After we ordered, the basic side dishes and house sauces came out. Spicy cheongyang chili, white kimchi, a special soy sauce, wasabi, and salt were all set on the table. ![Mung bean sprout stir-fry served as a basic side](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-09-1jq5s-966.webp) ![Close-up of the smoky mung bean sprout stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-10-brl1n-966.webp) The mung bean sprout stir-fry that comes as a basic side was especially great — stir-fried quickly over high heat, still crunchy, with a subtle smoky flavor and peppery kick that cut cleanly through the richness of the lamb. ## How good is the raw lamb at Jin 1926? Pink meat and fine marbling And finally, the French rack and lamb ribs arrived neatly plated on a tray. Even at a glance, the fresh crimson color and dense white marbling were impressive. ![French rack and lamb ribs raw meat served on a tray](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-11-dn40i-966.webp) ![Raw lamb showing crimson marbling](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-12-1kzif-966.webp) The biggest perk of Jin 1926 is that a trained staff member grills the meat 100% for you, start to finish, right at the brazier! Not having to lift a finger and being served the perfectly cooked meat felt like a real treat. ![Staff member grilling lamb over the brazier](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-13-1m78g-966.webp) ![Lamb ribs cooking over the charcoal brazier](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-14-h00cw-966.webp) ## French rack medium-rare, lamb ribs medium: how staff grill each cut The staff member grilled the French rack medium-rare, tailored to suit that cut's texture. The vegetable garnish grilled alongside — scallion, onion, cherry tomatoes, king oyster mushroom — was also generous. Once perfectly cooked, the French rack was plated with the garnish. ![French rack cooked medium-rare with vegetable garnish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-15-aiddu-966.webp) I dipped a piece of the perfectly cooked French rack in salt first — zero gamey smell, melt-in-the-mouth tenderness, and a burst of savory juices like a waterfall. ![A piece of French rack dipped in salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-16-kouoh-966.webp) The lamb ribs were grilled to a perfect medium, with a springy texture. ![Lamb ribs grilled to medium](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-17-1fdn4-966.webp) ![Grilled lamb ribs plated](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-18-1rveg-966.webp) ![Cross-section of chewy lamb ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-19-88e03-966.webp) Cooked medium, the lamb ribs had a chewy, bouncy bite that was just fantastic... ## The paper bone handles on Jin 1926's lamb ribs ![Lamb rib bone wrapped with a paper handle](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-20-ivrrx-966.webp) ![Eating lamb ribs holding the bone handle](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-21-16s0l-966.webp) For the rib bone especially, they wrapped it with a dedicated paper handle so your hands wouldn't get greasy — such a thoughtful touch for guests. ## What jin-teukseon-bap (gondre and pollock roe rice) looks and tastes like ![Jin-teukseon-bap gondre pollock roe rice in a ceramic bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-22-1l21d-966.webp) ![Low-sodium pollock roe on top of gondre rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-23-wb8ud-966.webp) The rice dish that came alongside the meat, jin-teukseon-bap, was fragrant gondre (thistle greens) rice in a dark ceramic bowl, topped with low-sodium pollock roe. ![Gondre pollock roe rice wrapped in dried seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling/jin1926-dasan-french-rack-lamb-grilling-24-fpusb-966.webp) I mixed it thoroughly with a spoon, placed it on crispy dried seaweed, added a piece of spicy cheongyang chili, and wrapped it up. The savory gondre aroma paired with the salty, rich umami of the pollock roe made this an absolute standout dish from the very first bite. ## Is Jin 1926 Dasan Branch worth a visit? Final verdict Jin 1926 Dasan Branch in Namyangju is a wonderful lamb specialty restaurant near Dasan where you can fully enjoy the deep flavor of top-grade Australian lamb along with a refined grilling service.
