I tried the medium wild makhoe platter and fried oysters, plus the terrace pocha-style outdoor dining atmosphere and kind service. Pohang Makhoe is a place I would happily revisit for raw fish and a drink after work. ## Good to know - **Address**: 162-2 Jeongja-dong, Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기 성남시 분당구 정자동 162-2) - **Reservations**: Naver reservations available - **What I ordered**: Medium wild makhoe platter; fried oysters - **Special feature**: Says it receives wild fish caught in Pohang that morning by same-day direct shipment and sells it the same day *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* ![Representative image from a visit to Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-01-9svh4-1200.webp) ## Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch location and reservations Address: 162-2 Jeongja-dong, Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기 성남시 분당구 정자동 162-2) Reservations: Naver reservations available Special feature: A makhoe (mixed sliced raw fish) and seafood specialist that says it receives wild fish caught in Pohang that morning by same-day direct shipment for sale. ![Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch restaurant information](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-02-l5wsl-966.webp) ![Directions to Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-03-fxwfc-966.webp) ![Jeongja-dong Pohang Makhoe restaurant guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-04-xvrg5-966.webp) There’s one important thing you absolutely need to know before visiting! Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch is independently operated, with no connection at all to stores in other areas or stores with different names. I think that is where this Jeongja main branch’s one-of-a-kind quality and flavor come from. It is popular, so it tends to be busy at dinner time. Since Naver reservations are available, I recommend booking ahead before you visit. ![Reservation information for Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-05-w6kpc-966.webp) ![Information to know before visiting Pohang Makhoe in Jeongja-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-06-2kn22-966.webp) ## A terrace and atmosphere made for outdoor pocha dining In weather like this, when it is perfect to eat outside in the breeze, the outdoor pocha-style terrace seats are by far the most popular. The outdoor terrace is nicely set up so you can enjoy raw fish while feeling the evening breeze. The indoor atmosphere was great too: the entire restaurant was kept very clean and comfortable, so even those sensitive about cleanliness can dine with peace of mind. What impressed me most was the staff’s service. Even during the busy dinner rush, they moved quickly, immediately took care of anything needed, and were so kind that I felt wonderful throughout the meal. ![Terrace atmosphere at Pohang Makhoe Jeongja Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-07-7jijc-966.webp) ![Indoor atmosphere at Pohang Makhoe in Jeongja-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-08-8aaia-966.webp) ## Medium wild makhoe platter and fried oysters The main dishes I ordered that day were a medium wild makhoe platter and fried oysters, a great side to enjoy alongside it. ![Wild makhoe and fried oysters ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-09-1jc60-966.webp) ### Medium wild makhoe platter The moment the makhoe arrived, I could see how fresh it was. Perhaps because they operate on the principle of receiving wild fish caught off Pohang that very dawn by same-day direct shipment and selling it that day, the fish had exceptional freshness and springy texture. The makhoe platter came with a generous seasonal mix of fish, including gizzard shad, assorted fish, and red flounder. Its savory flavor and the pleasantly firm chew of the bones, so characteristic of wild makhoe, were superb. The more I chewed, the more the nutty flavor unique to wild raw fish spread through my mouth—I simply could not put my chopsticks down. ![Same-day wild makhoe assortment shipped from Pohang](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-10-544gl-966.webp) ### How to enjoy makhoe deliciously The way to eat makhoe deliciously is very simple and intuitive. - Put as much of the assorted makhoe as you want on your small plate or in your individual bowl. - Add Pohang Makhoe’s special chojang, a sweet-and-tangy chili dipping sauce, to taste and mix it through. - Place the mixed fish on fresh ssam vegetables (perilla leaves, lettuce, and so on), add garlic or chili, and wrap up a big bite—that’s it! The sweet-and-tangy chojang, savory wild fish, and firm texture of the bones come together for a mouthful of rich flavor. Even the medium size was generous enough for several adults to enjoy without feeling shortchanged. ![Makhoe with special chojang and ssam vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-11-4dss3-966.webp) ![Wild makhoe enjoyed by several adults](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-12-h8l8j-966.webp) ![Generous medium wild makhoe platter](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-13-19xdx-966.webp) ### Crispy, fresh fried oysters The fried oysters I ordered as a side with the raw fish were also a special treat that surpassed my expectations. The coating was wonderfully crisp, while the oysters inside were fresh and plump with none of the fishy taste. They were the definition of crisp outside and tender inside, making a fantastic savory pairing to enjoy between bites of raw fish. ![Crispy fried oysters ordered with raw fish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-14-1ehxa-966.webp) ![Fried oyster dish with fresh oysters](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace/jeongja-pohang-makhoe-terrace-15-114ys-966.webp) ## Raw fish and a drink after work in Jeongja-dong If you are looking near Bundang’s Jeongja-dong for a delicious dinner and a drink after work, Pohang Makhoe in Jeongja-dong seems like an excellent choice.
