A medium dakdoritang costs 29,000 won, plus 3,000 won to switch to boneless chicken and 2,000 won for extra rice cake, paired with Jipyeong makgeolli at 5,000 won and free rice at lunch, which we refilled once. The sauce-soaked chewy rice cake and tender boneless chicken were the highlights, though the portion was so generous that we left without trying the snow cheese fried rice. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1F, 19 Gukhoe-daero 34-gil, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul - **Hours**: Mon-Fri 11:30-02:00, Sat-Sun 16:30-02:00 - **Break time**: 14:30-16:30 - **Last order**: 01:00 - **Dakdoritang (medium)**: 29,000 won - **Switch to boneless chicken**: 3,000 won - **Extra rice cake**: 2,000 won - **Jipyeong makgeolli**: 5,000 won - **Lunch perk**: Free rice, choose your portion size - **Service**: Takeout, delivery and reservations available - **Parking**: Nearby public parking lot - **Getting there**: 3-minute walk from Exits 4 and 5, Yeongdeungpo-gu Office Station - **Price reference**: ₩100,000 ≈ $73.5 (2026-09-16) *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* I recently went to see the movie Odyssey at CGV Yeongdeungpo, and while I was in the area I stopped by Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch, which is famous around Yeongdeungpo-gu Office Station. You know how dakdoritang lives or dies by the sauce, right? Here you can really feel how much the owner cares about their dakdoritang. The taste was great and the space was so clean and pleasant that I left completely satisfied — I already booked a repeat visit, haha. Let me introduce it right away! ## Where is Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch, and when is it open? ![Exterior of Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-01-177sb-900.webp) Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch is located at 19 Gukhoe-daero 34-gil, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, a 3-minute walk from both Exit 4 and Exit 5 of Yeongdeungpo-gu Office Station.

I think I'll be coming back for that on the hottest days of summer! ![Sign noting use of 100% domestic fresh chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-05-6ny95-900.webp) ![In-store notice about domestic fresh chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-06-11pcq-900.webp) Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch uses 100% domestic fresh chicken, apparently, which got me even more excited, teehee. ## Doriyeon Dakdoritang menu, prices and what we ordered ![Menu board showing the single dakdoritang menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-07-kar8v-900.webp) The menu at Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch is dakdoritang and only dakdoritang. It's a menu board that really shows the owner's pride in their dakdoritang, haha. What I liked was that you can adjust the spice level and add all sorts of extra toppings. ![Tablet ordering device on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-08-e4owq-1200.webp) We ordered easily through the tablet at the table. - Dakdoritang (medium): ₩29,000 - Switch to boneless chicken: ₩3,000 - Extra rice cake: ₩2,000 - Jipyeong makgeolli: ₩5,000 They're currently running a Naver receipt review event, haha.

You can even choose your rice portion when ordering. ![A moderate-sized bowl of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-10-odwbt-900.webp) This is the portion I got after asking for a moderate amount of rice — the dakdoritang was so good that I refilled once more, haha... ![Side dishes served with the dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-11-8el9v-900.webp) ![Plates of side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-12-1gvgq-900.webp) The side dishes were solid! The soft tofu was especially good. ![Soft tofu served as a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-13-1mkq7-900.webp) ![Bean sprout soup at the self-serve corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-14-ew8eb-900.webp) There was also bean sprout soup at the self-serve corner, so I grabbed a bowl of that too. ![A bowl of self-served bean sprout soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-15-v15hz-900.webp) ![Special dipping sauce set out on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-16-1oufr-900.webp) There's a special dipping sauce set out at every table! Dip the chewy rice cake and tender chicken into this sauce and the savory flavor explodes! ![Rice cake and chicken dipped in the special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-17-sledi-900.webp) ## How to eat dakdoritang: sauce, bean sprout soup and rice cake Eat the rice cake and noodles first, then once the 4-minute timer runs out, turn the heat down to low and keep eating, haha. ![Dakdoritang simmering with a 4-minute timer](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-18-190yz-900.webp) ## How does the boneless dakdoritang taste? Finally, the main event: boneless dakdoritang! The sauce itself is on another level — the flavor soaked deep into both the meat and the rice cake. The rice cake here is especially amazing, chewy like garaetteok (cylindrical rice cake) in the best way, it's insane. ![Chewy sauce-soaked rice cake extra](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-19-1exy7-900.webp) The boneless chicken was truly tender through and through. I want to eat it again already, ugh. There was zero hassle of picking bones out, so it was really easy and pleasant to eat! I piled on the sauce and devoured it happily. ![Boneless dakdoritang with a glass of Jipyeong makgeolli](https://img.superchart.com/images/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong/doriyeon-dakdoritang-yeongdeungpo-gucheong-20-8kl5w-767.webp) And with a cool glass of makgeolli on the side, it was a truly perfect pairing, nothing to envy in the world! Unfortunately, the portion was so huge and generous that I couldn't finish it off with fried rice at the end, which I really regret. The sauce is so amazing that fried rice with it would definitely be incredible, but I felt like I was going to burst, so I just couldn't do it. Next time I come back, I'm making sure to finish it off with the snow cheese fried rice!! ## Is Doriyeon Dakdoritang in Yeongdeungpo worth a visit? Doriyeon Dakdoritang Yeongdeungpo-gu Office branch is a place that lacks nothing — taste, generous portions, value for money, freshness, and friendly service. If you find picking bones a hassle, I strongly recommend ordering the boneless option for an easy, comfortable meal!! If you want to feel the happiness of a distinctly addictive sauce, chewy rice cake, tender chicken, and a glass of makgeolli, don't hesitate — go visit. I'll be back soon myself to fully clean out that spicy sauce with the snow cheese fried rice too, haha.
