Songnim Bok Jangeo Freshwater Eel Unlimited Refill Wongok Branch, at 47 Wonseon-ro, Danwon-gu, Ansan-si, 1st floor. ## Songnim Bok Jangeo Wongok Branch: refill price and parking Songnim Bok Jangeo's unlimited eel refill is ₩29,900 per person. It's written that they use 100% domestic eel, prepped fresh each dawn, so even though it's all-you-can-eat, I got the sense they still care about the quality of the eel. ![Unlimited eel refill signage at Songnim Bok Jangeo Wongok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-01-1hnkl-900.webp) Parking was available behind the building, with space for about 4 cars. ## What the interior and menu look like Walking in, the place had an overall clean, tidy restaurant vibe. ![Clean, tidy restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-02-jv6gj-900.webp) The menu had separate adult and child pricing for the unlimited refill, plus a per-person table setting fee charged separately. Besides eel, there were other meal items available too, but this day I stuck to the plan: unlimited refill eel. ![Menu with adult/child unlimited refill pricing](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-03-1rheu-900.webp) ## Why eel and bokbunja go together, and the free bottle On one wall of Songnim Bok Jangeo Wongok Branch there was signage about how well eel pairs with bokbunja (black raspberry) wine. There was an explanation saying it goes great together, and I'd been thinking it'd be nice to try eel with bokbunja — ![Signage about eel and bokbunja wine pairing](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-04-free6-m-900.webp) ![Notice about bokbunja wine posted in the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-05-1vdex-661.webp) and right then the owner gave us bokbunja wine as a service item. I ordered eel and got complimentary wine on top — great start, put me in a good mood right away. Having wine alongside unlimited eel made the meal feel even more generous. ![Complimentary bokbunja wine](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-06-178xr-966.webp) ## Thick Korean freshwater eel grilled by the owner The owner personally brought out the first batch of eel, along with a bit of chicken neck and pork belly too. ![First serving of freshwater eel with chicken neck and pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-07-nxmqg-900.webp) Looking at the eel first, the thickness was impressive. The flesh was plump, and it looked like good-quality eel just from the sight of it. ![Plate of thick domestic freshwater eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-08-pajok-900.webp) The owner grilled the first batch on the pan himself. ### How thick and firm the eel tastes I dug into the grilled eel with high expectations. ![Eel browning nicely on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-09-vveq2-900.webp) Eating the nicely browned eel, the flesh was thick yet had a satisfyingly firm bite. ![A fully grilled piece of eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-10-aslr4-900.webp) Chewing it, the muscle structure was still intact, letting me really taste eel's signature light, savory flavor. The outside was browned with smoky char and nuttiness, while the inside stayed moist. The tail section in particular had a chewy texture and a strong savory flavor, making it a delicacy worth savoring on its own. ## Ginger and eel sauce served generously The eel sauce was set out in a big communal container, so I could scoop out as much as I wanted — convenient. Dipping the eel in the salty sauce. ![Eel sauce provided in a communal container](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-11-2gsof-543.webp) Fresh ginger to eat with the eel was also generously provided. Piling ginger on a piece of eel made it taste even better and feel healthier too. ![Ginger to top the eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-12-aszm7-900.webp) ## Side dishes from baek-kimchi to pa-kimchi (green onion kimchi) The side dishes were varied too — baek-kimchi (white kimchi), pa-kimchi (green onion kimchi), pickled vegetables, and more. Eel itself has a rich, savory flavor, so pairing it with these tangy, clean sides worked really well. ![Side dishes including baek-kimchi and pa-kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-13-19srn-900.webp) ![Side dishes including pickled vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-14-knqwa-900.webp) Wrapping eel in pickled perilla leaves in particular added a fragrant, salty note I personally really liked. Garlic was also served generously from the start, so I could wrap it into ssam (lettuce wraps) along with the sides for variety. ![Eel wrapped in pickled perilla leaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-15-1f5ll-900.webp) ![A piece of eel with ssam vegetables and garlic](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-16-jmdeu-900.webp) ## Chicken neck and pork belly served alongside the eel I also grilled up the chicken neck meat that came out at the start. It had a light flavor with a decently chewy texture — a different kind of appeal from the eel. ![Chicken neck and pork belly grilling on the pan](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-17-1kaiz-900.webp) The pork belly had rosemary aroma added, so grilling it brought out a subtle herb scent that was surprisingly good. After eating eel non-stop, mixing in different meat mid-meal was a nice palate change. ## Refilling eel at the self-serve bar Side dishes and vegetables could be taken as needed from the self-serve bar. If I ran short on any side while eating eel, I could just go grab more — convenient — and I could also load up on whatever ssam vegetables I wanted. ![Self-serve bar with sides, vegetables, and eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-18-s4zm1-900.webp) Best of all, eel itself was available at the self-serve bar, so after finishing the first batch I went and grabbed another plate to grill myself. ### The second round of eel tasted even better Grilling the second batch of eel myself, it somehow tasted even better than the first — maybe because I'd gotten the hang of it by then. ![Second batch of eel grilled by hand](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-19-skewq-900.webp) Round two of eating time began again. Bite after bite, mixing it up with ginger, eel sauce, pa-kimchi, pickled perilla leaves — eating without pause. ![Second round of grilled eel with sides](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-20-1fris-900.webp) The eel was so thick that just a few pieces were filling, but since it was unlimited, I could fill up entirely on eel — which felt amazing. ![A piece of eel dipped in eel sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-21-ik7wv-900.webp) ![Grill loaded with thick eel pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-22-4zwfv-900.webp) ## Finishing the meal with bokbunja wine While eating eel to my heart's content, I also sipped the complimentary bokbunja wine. Savory eel and sweet bokbunja wine — a pairing that couldn't help but go well together. It felt like a proper restorative, health-boosting meal. ![A glass of bokbunja wine paired with eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-23-1bgj0-900.webp) Eating as much delicious domestic eel as I wanted, I wrapped up the meal completely satisfied and full. ![Full spread of unlimited eel at Songnim Bok Jangeo Wongok Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service-24-1jco3-1200.webp) ## Is Songnim Bok Jangeo worth it? Final verdict Songnim Bok Jangeo Wongok Branch lets you enjoy unlimited domestic eel for ₩29,900 per person, plus complimentary bokbunja wine on top — pretty great value. The eel was thick, firm, and moist, and there was fun in mixing it with the various sides: ginger, eel sauce, baek-kimchi, pa-kimchi, pickled vegetables. Most of all, being able to easily grab more eel and sides from the self-serve bar meant I could eat until fully satisfied, and the complimentary bokbunja wine on top made it even more satisfying. A great eel spot in Wongok-dong, Ansan, if you want to eat your fill of eel for a hearty boost. ## Where it is - Songnim Bok Jangeo Freshwater Eel Unlimited Refill Wongok Branch (송림복장어 민물장어 무한리필 원곡점) - 47 Wonseon-ro, Danwon-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, 1st floor - 경기도 안산시 단원구 원선로 47 1층 - 37.3291149, 126.7980395 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%86%A1%EB%A6%BC%EB%B3%B5%EC%9E%A5%EC%96%B4%20%EB%AF%BC%EB%AC%BC%EC%9E%A5%EC%96%B4%20%EB%AC%B4%ED%95%9C%EB%A6%AC%ED%95%84%20%EC%9B%90%EA%B3%A1%EC%A0%90/@37.3291149,126.7980395,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-errand-lunch/songnim-eel-wonkok-bokbunja-service/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
