On a date, the writer ordered the standard course at 30,000 won per person for two and paired it with soju, from complimentary mussel soup and boiled octopus to butter-grilled abalone, abalone sashimi, mulhoe (cold raw fish soup) and abalone innards porridge. Wando Sanghoe packs a lot into the price, making it a solid pick in Yangsan for family dinners, dates or group meals. ## Good to know - **Order**: Standard course, 30,000 won per person × 2 - **How to order**: Kiosk - **Complimentary dishes**: Mussel soup and boiled octopus (also included in the standard course) - **Parking**: Dedicated lot right next to the restaurant - **Reservations**: Most seats are reserved; expect a long wait without a booking - **Address**: 1F, 30-17 Gachon-ro, Mulgeum-eup, Yangsan-si, Gyeongnam - **Price reference**: ₩30,000 ≈ $22.5 (2026-10-23) *as written by the visitor on Jun 7, 2026* With prices so high these days, even a single menu item can feel like a burden when eating out. But at Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch (완도상회 물금역본점) in Mulgeum, Yangsan, I got a full abalone course for ₩30,000 per person. Here's my honest review with all the details! ![Main photo of the abalone course at Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-01-1fb2x-1200.webp) ## What are the parking and exterior like at Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch? There is a dedicated parking lot right next to the restaurant, so it's easy to visit by car. ![Exterior of Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-02-xmsi6-900.webp) ![Outside and parking area of Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-03-16awl-900.webp) There's also a tank at the entrance with camping-style shellfish (for grilling, steaming, plus seasonal seafood). I checked out the abalone shipped straight from Wando, and they were huge and plump, so my expectations went up! ## Inside Wando Sanghoe: reservations and waiting The interior is neat and tidy. There were plenty of seats, but most were reserved, and quite a few people who came without booking couldn't be seated and had to wait, so keep that in mind! ![Neat, tidy interior of Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-04-1gcuj-900.webp) The pot rice (solbap) is cooked right in the restaurant, and it looked glossy and really delicious. I only ordered the standard course this time, but next visit I'm definitely trying the pot rice too! ![Pot rice being cooked in the restaurant at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-05-1t04b-900.webp) ## Wando Sanghoe menu and how to order You order through a kiosk, and there are lots of menu options. We chose two standard courses for one person each (₩30,000). ![Menu at Wando Sanghoe Mulgeum Station Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-06-1p5k7-900.webp) ![Course menu and prices at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-07-dypt9-889.webp) ## What comes in the ₩30,000 standard abalone course? ### Side dishes and free mussel soup Right after ordering, tasty-looking side dishes started arriving. They weren't just there for show; each one felt neat and carefully made. ![Side dishes laid out right after ordering at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-08-1kxn6-966.webp) ![Neatly plated side dishes at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-09-6oi97-m-966.webp) ![Side dishes and free mussel soup at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-10-1jbn6-900.webp) The mussel soup comes free too, and it really soothed my stomach. Naturally, it's a great drinking snack as well. ![Free mussel soup at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-11-1kb1d-966.webp) ### Free boiled octopus Then the food started coming out one dish after another. ![Abalone course dishes arriving one after another](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-12-1e88c-900.webp) ![Boiled octopus served free with the standard course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-13-zxua4-900.webp) Boiled octopus (muneo sukhoe) is included as a freebie even in the standard course, which makes it a generous lineup. It came with sesame oil sprinkled on top, so the nutty flavor filled my mouth, and it was so fresh that the texture was fantastic. ![A plate of boiled octopus with sesame oil](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-14-rbkjh-900.webp) ![Boiled octopus and jangjorim from the Wando Sanghoe course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-15-yno0a-900.webp) ### Jangjorim (soy-braised beef) Next, the jangjorim (soy-braised beef) was salty and clean-tasting. It's a total rice thief. ![Salty jangjorim and the abalone course spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-16-b7u1b-900.webp) ### Butter-grilled abalone and a glass of soju And here comes the star, the butter-grilled abalone! It had a rich buttery aroma, with a tender texture and deep flavor. It melted in my mouth! Even kids were gobbling it up. I also ordered soju, the drink they say is a sin when you get lost in good food, and haha, the alcohol was so sweet that day. With so many snacks, it just kept going down smoothly. ![Butter-grilled abalone table with soju](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-17-eb4n5-900.webp) ![Butter-grilled abalone and course dishes at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-18-10cbg-900.webp) ### Sweet and sour salad The salad that followed paired a sweet-and-sour dressing with crunchy vegetables, enough to bring back even a lost appetite. ![Vegetable salad with sweet and sour dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-19-k0dz3-900.webp) ![Salad and abalone sashimi from the Wando Sanghoe course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-20-vs4f1-900.webp) ### Abalone sashimi The abalone sashimi (jeonbokhoe) had a crunchy bite and top-notch freshness, so good..! It was chewy yet sweet, with a wonderful savory depth. ![Fresh, crunchy abalone sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-21-1b642-900.webp) ![Cold abalone mulhoe with ice floating in it](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-22-43vrm-900.webp) ### Icy mulhoe (cold raw fish soup) Next was the mulhoe (cold raw fish soup) with ice floating in it. Equally tangy and refreshing, I was slurping it down without realizing. Above all, the abalone was fresh, so the textures were simply excellent! ## How does the abalone offal porridge taste at Wando Sanghoe? I finished the abalone course with offal porridge (naejangjuk) for a hearty ending. The nutty aroma hit me the moment I took a spoonful and really stirred up my appetite. Even the deep color was special, and of course it tasted amazing :) ![Dark, rich abalone offal porridge at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-23-1xma6-900.webp) They put in plenty of abalone and offal, so the nutty, clean savory flavor was the real deal. ![A spoonful of porridge packed with abalone and offal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date/yangsan-mulgeum-abalone-course-date-24-aysga-900.webp) I was full, but I couldn't skip the after-meal coffee!!
