## In short

Guigo is a wood-fired grilled fish restaurant on Jungbu-daero in Giheung-gu, Yongin, Gyeonggi. On a Friday evening the writer drove an hour and a half from Pangyo with her mother and sister to share Guigo's assorted grilled fish set (mackerel, rockfish, flounder, beltfish and Spanish mackerel) with hot pot rice, and checked the self-serve banchan bar, the kids' chairs and the kids' tableware. Because the fish at Guigo is barely seasoned, it suits a family meal out with young children.

Today I want to introduce a restaurant my mom, my sister and I went to last Friday evening :) My job is in Pangyo, and since it was rush hour it took an hour and a half by car... I was starving to death...

## Where is Guigo, and what are its hours?

Guigo is a wood-fired grilled fish restaurant on the 1st floor of a building at 761 Jungbu-daero, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and it's an easy stop as a Yongin restaurant near the Korean Folk Village. Hours are Mon–Sun 11:00–21:00, last order 20:00, closed every Tuesday.

📍 If you're driving, they tell you to head over next to the self-service car wash — and that's exactly right!

🚌 There's a bus stop nearby so it's accessible too, but you'll need to walk up a hill!

♥️ The building isn't right on the main road so it doesn't really stand out!

⏰ Mon–Sun 11:00–21:00 / break time 15:00–21:00 / last order 20:00 (closed every Tuesday) / [Chuseok holiday — open as usual] Thu 9/24–Sat 9/26, 11:00–21:00

### Is parking easy at Guigo?

🚘 There was plenty of room in the parking lot! When I arrived there was exactly one spot left, haha, but I still think it'd be enough even for a group!

The building was taller than I expected! Guigo the restaurant is on the 1st floor! For a second I thought those clothes were sold at the restaurant too, but it seems there's a clothing shop(?) on the 2nd floor? Once I came back out though, it didn't really stand out like an actual clothing shop, haha.

## Inside Guigo: does it work for groups and family meals?

The inside of Guigo is spacious and comfortable, with a vibe that could easily seat a group, and I'd recommend it for a family meal. It felt like it hadn't been open very long! ♥️♥️

I thought they only had grilled mackerel, but they actually have an assorted grilled fish set too! Kids love fish, so I thought it'd be great if more families came to visit :)

## Which five fish come in Guigo's assorted grilled fish set?

Guigo's assorted grilled fish set comes with five kinds: mackerel, rockfish, flounder, hairtail, and mackerel pike. We were going to just order the grilled mackerel, but we wanted to try other fish too, so we went with the assorted set!

🐟 Doesn't it look super hearty just from looking at it?? haha

🎏 Grilled fish 🎏 Usually grilled fish is pan-fried in oil, but Guigo grills it in a wood-fired oven, so there was no fishy smell and no greasiness either! It also had basically no seasoning at all, which I thought made it great for kids too! Honestly, isn't fish basically the ultimate rice thief?? haha I found it a bit too bland so I dipped it in soy sauce, haha. And having a spoonful of the seaweed soup along with it made everything come together so nicely 💜

![Extra side dishes brought from Guigo's self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-16-26pth-966.webp)
*Extra self-serve side dishes*

## What's at Guigo's self-serve side dish bar?

At Guigo you can grab extra side dishes yourself from the self-serve bar, and japchae (glass noodle stir-fry) isn't a default side dish — you have to get it from the self-serve bar. I'd recommend the stir-fried fish cake from there! haha

The chonggak kimchi (young radish kimchi) wasn't fully fermented at the time, so personally it wasn't my favorite! 🫥 (I'm someone who prefers well-fermented kimchi...) → chonggak kimchi is best when it's properly fermented ♥️

Japchae doesn't come as a default side dish, you have to go get it yourself! I forgot to take a photo of it :( Take only as much as you'll actually eat, without being greedy 💜 That's just basic manners!!

![Kids' tableware prepared at Guigo](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-17-epm5g-m-966.webp)

### Can you bring kids? Guigo's high chairs and tableware hygiene

Guigo has kids' chairs and kids' tableware ready to go. Since it's a restaurant and lots of different children use them, hygiene matters, right? They were kept very clean!

![Neatly set table at Guigo](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-19-p0nr3-966.webp)

The table was super neat! Since the hot pot rice and side dishes take up a lot of space, having it set up this way kept it from feeling cluttered and made things easy!

![Individually packaged soy sauce and wasabi on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-20-1mkop-966.webp)

![Sauce setup on the Guigo table](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-21-10mye-966.webp)

![Individually packaged condiments set at the dining spot](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-22-ygwqr-966.webp)

Usually soy sauce or wasabi are left on the table and you pour some into a separate small dish, but at this restaurant everything was set up in individual disposable packets!

![Water dispenser inside Guigo](https://img.superchart.com/images/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner/guigo-yongin-giheung-grilled-fish-dinner-23-1s0ls-966.webp)
*Water dispenser*

They give one bottle of water per table, and if you want more, you just use the water dispenser!

## What I liked most about Guigo

- 💜 Easy parking & accessibility → the restaurant sign isn't visible from the main road so it can be hard to find, but your navigation app will guide you there
- 💜 The staff are friendly
- 💜 The hot pot rice is delicious, and the nurungji (scorched rice) for dessert is the best!!
- 💜 A great place to come as a group — family gatherings, work dinners, etc.!
- 💜 They have kids' chairs & tableware
- 💜 You can go back for more side dishes
