Parking is something you quietly end up worrying about when going out to eat as a group, so I was happy with that. A great west Suwon restaurant when convenient parking matters. ![Parking area at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-02-1vdi8-966.webp) ![Parking area at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-03-2s1ou-966.webp) ![Grilled-fish menu at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-04-oy7qv-966.webp) ## Grilled mackerel and a wide range of fish Their signature grilled mackerel is ₩16,000. There were many kinds of fish, including grilled Spanish mackerel, cutlassfish, croaker, tonguefish, and Atka mackerel. You can choose according to your tastes rather than sticking only to mackerel, which makes it nice for a family meal. The Premium Set seems to come as a generous spread with grilled mackerel and sashimi, too. I think I would order that for dinner. ![Menu guide at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-05-cbqps-966.webp) ## Waiting and a bright, tidy dining room There was also a Catchtable waiting system. As you would expect from a popular restaurant, there was a wait, but the place is large, so the line moved quickly. We were eighth in line and waited less than 10 minutes. ![Catchtable waiting information area](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-06-gvyxc-966.webp) ![Waiting area at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-07-11ag6-870.webp) The waiting area was nicely set up like a cafeteria, and the interior was bright and clean, giving it more of a neat Korean restaurant feel than a typical grilled-fish spot. I have been wondering where to take the family for the Chuseok or holiday break, so I saved this one for now, haha. ![Bright, clean Korean restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-08-1qdn6-966.webp) ![Dining area at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-09-1nlb6-966.webp) ![Interior seating at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-10-uw558-966.webp) ## A full Korean table with miyeok-guk and banchan Once seated, we were served miyeok-guk (seaweed soup), japchae (stir-fried glass noodles), seasoned vegetables, and several other banchan (Korean side dishes). It was not just a single piece of grilled fish: with soup and side dishes too, it felt like a satisfying full Korean meal. ![Korean meal setting with miyeok-guk and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-11-zlpln-1200.webp) Once our grilled mackerel arrived, the whole table was complete. Golden-grilled fish with warm rice, miyeok-guk, and side dishes is such a familiar, delicious combination. Grilling fish at home can feel like a burden because of the smell, so it was also nice to eat it comfortably here. ![A full meal with grilled mackerel and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-12-psrqa-966.webp) ### Crispy outside, moist inside grilled mackerel The mackerel in particular was a good size, with a nicely golden surface. It was crisp outside and moist inside, perfect with rice. A hearty Korean meal beats heavily seasoned food every time. If you are a Korean-food person, this is a combination you simply cannot dislike. It was the kind of spread my parents would enjoy. ![Golden-grilled mackerel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-13-7q0v9-966.webp) ![Full grilled-mackerel meal setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-14-z5o0t-966.webp) ![Grilled mackerel with Korean side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-15-1hd93-966.webp) ![A plate of moist grilled mackerel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-16-vwzs8-966.webp) ## The self-service bar where I refilled japchae twice Beyond the basic side dishes, there is a separate self-service bar. We could bring back as much japchae and as many Korean side dishes as we wanted, and everything was kept very clean. The japchae here was seriously so good. I went back for two more refills just for that. You could polish off a meal with the side dishes alone. ![Grilled mackerel meal with parents in west Suwon at Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-17-13c4v-966.webp) Warm miyeok-guk and nutty sungnyung (scorched-rice tea) were also available to take as much as we wanted. After grilled fish and rice, finishing with warm sungnyung made it feel like a truly filling meal. ![Miyeok-guk and sungnyung self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-18-y4sat-966.webp) ![Self-service corner with warm sungnyung](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-19-ggmmy-966.webp) The real finish was sikhye (sweet rice drink). There was sikhye in the beverage corner too, so it was easy to help ourselves. Sweet sikhye as dessert made it perfect. ![Beverage corner with sikhye](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal-20-bd9qr-966.webp) ## A comfortable grilled-fish meal with parents Overall, this was an easy place for a family meal: the restaurant was spacious and clean, with grilled fish, varied side dishes, convenient parking, and a tidy atmosphere. If you are wondering where to take your parents for the upcoming Chuseok or holiday break, a grilled-fish spread like this could be a good choice. Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch felt reasonably priced rather than excessive, and was a nice spot for a relaxed family meal. ## Where it is - Godeungeo Myeongpumi Doeda Suwon Branch (고등어명품이되다 수원점) (고등어명품이되다 수원점) - 1731 Seobu-ro, Gwonseon-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기도 수원시 권선구 서부로 1731 1층 고등어명품이되다) - 경기도 수원시 권선구 서부로 1731 1층 고등어명품이되다 - 37.2633415, 126.9720795 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B3%A0%EB%93%B1%EC%96%B4%EB%AA%85%ED%92%88%EC%9D%B4%EB%90%98%EB%8B%A4%20%EC%88%98%EC%9B%90%EC%A0%90/@37.2633415,126.9720795,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-doorplate-lunch/suwon-grilled-mackerel-family-meal/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
