After enjoying the generous portions on an earlier visit, the writer returned on a weekday evening with a neighborhood friend and ordered bibim mandu (spicy sauced fried dumplings), fish cake udon and cheese donkatsu (pork cutlet). Haengbokhan Udon Gage gives you a lot of food for the price and stays open until 3 a.m., so it works for late-night meals too. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1st floor, 257 Jungang-ro, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul - **Hours**: 10:40-03:00 (last order 02:00) - **Parking**: Free parking available - **Ordered**: Bibim mandu, fish cake udon, cheese donkatsu - **Seating**: Seats arranged for solo diners, self-serve bar *as written by the visitor on Aug 29, 2026* ![Exterior of Haengbokhan Udon Gage Sinjeongnegeori Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-01-1spw0-1200.webp) I went back to Haengbokhan Udon Gage, the place I'd visited once before and loved for its generous portions and flavor.

In an era when so many people eat solo, I liked that this is a place where you can comfortably visit by yourself. ![Self-serve bar in the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-07-i4sf6-900.webp) There's also a separate self-serve bar. ## What is on the menu at Haengbokhan Udon Gage? ![Menu board listing udon and pork cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-08-1frvu-900.webp) Haengbokhan Udon Gage has a pretty wide-ranging menu.

First, the bibim mandu was a nostalgic menu I used to eat often at snack shops as a kid, so it was a nice surprise to see it here. The spicy-sweet sauce was tossed together with various vegetables and dumplings, and it really woke up the appetite. It wasn't just intensely spicy — the crunch of the vegetables paired well with the dumplings, making it a dish anyone, young or old, could enjoy. ![Fish cake udon topped with big chunks of fish cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-11-1uo7i-900.webp) ## Is the fish cake udon a generous portion? The fish cake udon came loaded with big chunks of fish cake and chewy noodles. The broth was rich yet savory, perfect for a warm meal. The portion was especially generous — one bowl alone was enough to fill you up. That's actually why this place comes to mind whenever I'm looking for a Sinjeongnegeori restaurant for Japanese-style dishes. ![A bowl of fish cake udon with generous noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-12-1wmqp-900.webp) ## Cheese donkatsu was the favorite of the day And the dish I liked best that day was, without a doubt, the cheese donkatsu. The crispy fried cutlet was packed with mozzarella cheese, so anyone who loves cheese would be very satisfied. ![Cheese donkatsu with stretchy mozzarella cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-13-is9vk-900.webp) ![Plate of crispy fried cheese donkatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit/happy-udong-shinjeong-cheese-donkatsu-revisit-14-1lk2m-900.webp) The combination of cutlet and cheese worked really well together — personally, it was my favorite dish of everything we ordered that day.
