The moment it landed on the table, a subtle smoky, grilled aroma drifted up and made my mouth water just looking at it. The meat cuts looked thick too, so it seemed like it would be delicious. ![Close-up of chop steak cut into bite-sized pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-15-1k5zp-900.webp) ![Chop steak tossed in the special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-16-1dohi-900.webp) I tried the beef right away, cut into bite-sized pieces, and the moment it hit my mouth, savory juices burst out with every chew — better than expected. The smoky special sauce paired so well with the meat that it wasn't greasy at all, and I kept reaching for more.

They were savory and crispy with good seasoning, great to pick at between bites of steak. ![A colorful plate of chicken salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-20-15687-900.webp) ## Chicken salad for 13,000 won: portion and ingredients The chicken salad wowed me visually the moment it arrived, with its colorful look. It wasn't just tossed together carelessly — the colorful vegetables, chicken, and dressing were arranged neatly on a big plate, and you could tell a lot of care went into the plating. ![Close-up of chicken salad with generous chicken chunks](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-21-vncrj-900.webp) ![Chicken salad mixed with raisins and tomatoes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-22-1f7jd-900.webp) ![Vegetables in the chicken salad topped with cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-23-1ji0f-900.webp) ![A forkful of chicken salad being lifted up](https://img.superchart.com/images/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak/pohang-songdo-oceanview-free-parking-chopsteak-24-1tyjh-900.webp) I tried it right away — the generously sized chicken chunks were crispy outside and moist inside, better than I expected. The sweet-and-sour raisins and fresh tomatoes added bursts of flavor along with the savory sprinkled cheese, and the combination was fantastic. All the vegetables were fresh too, with a great crunchy texture. Above all, they didn't skimp on ingredients and filled the plate generously, so it felt like great value too — I was fully satisfied the whole time eating it 👍 Next time I want ocean-view Western food while looking out at Songdo Beach in Pohang, I'll have to come back here.
