Both of us were craving meat, so we went hunting for a good spot — and found one that's clean with amazing service. Introducing Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch, strongly recommended if you're looking for a date-night or family-gathering spot! ## Where Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch is and when it opens Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch is at 65 Songnang-ro, 1st floor, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, open daily 11:00–22:00. There's a large parking lot right in front. Manpo Galbi is a rib house that gives free naengmyeon (cold noodles). Charcoal-grilled galbi starts with the basics — fresh, firm cuts paired with handmade marinade. We'll stay true to the fundamentals. We make our own noodles and broth by hand. It takes more effort and time, but we made that choice after much thought. In gratitude for our customers' visits, we wanted to be a rib house that satisfies everyone with generous portions — from the side dishes to dessert, all made with warmth and care. (store's own description) It's in Yangju, so perfect if you're driving! Looked like a great spot for a family gathering too haha. ![Exterior and signage of Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-01-1ogxw-900.webp) ![Full view of the Manpo Galbi building on Songnang-ro in Yangju](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-02-1h31c-900.webp) > First, the meat itself must be excellent and always consistent; second, the marinade must not mask the meat's own flavor; third, it must touch the charcoal and take on that smoky aroma — this is the true way of galbi. ![Store sign reading 'the true way of galbi'](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-03-5a30y-900.webp) The place is huge. There's a big parking lot right out front so zero worries about parking. ## Inside Manpo Galbi: dining room and second-floor private rooms Right at the entrance of Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch there's a bbeong-scream (puffed rice cracker with ice cream) station and iced coffee. Puffed rice cracker plus ice cream, and iced coffee — best dessert combo ever! ![Bbeong-scream dessert corner at the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-04-1c8w0-900.webp) ![Dessert corner with an iced coffee machine](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-05-aimzj-900.webp) At the counter there's even floss, candy, and fabric spray, so you can leave feeling good after paying. The staff greeted us kindly right as we walked in, which made it easy to settle into our seats. ![1st-floor hall seating with indirect lighting at Manpo Galbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-06-11xmh-900.webp) ![Table seating with a sofa at the rib restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-07-qncnj-m-900.webp) ![Sleek interior hallway of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-08-4pl2f-900.webp) The vibe is upscale and clean! From the wallpaper to the indirect lighting to the sofas, the interior is so sleek it doesn't even feel like a typical rib restaurant.

The sweet marinade had soaked in fully, and the juices burst out while the meat melted softly. The raw beef short ribs were also 250g, and I highly recommend this one. ✨✨ You absolutely must order this!!✨✨ Even before grilling, the rich marbling stood out. Supposedly the best part of the flower rib, and indeed it was tender. It melted in my mouth and honestly, no exaggeration, it tasted like milk lol. Ugh, how do I even explain it... anyway we ate it with pure amazement. This is the dish we vowed to order again next time — absolutely recommend it. ![Raw beef short ribs grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-19-1d1z5-1200.webp) ![A piece of golden-grilled rib](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-20-1wc0a-900.webp) ## How was the 28,000-won LA galbi? We also ordered the LA galbi and it was no joke. The visuals alone were unbeatable, chewy ribs soaked in marinade — TT. The taste of eating at grandma's house during Chuseok, but a fancier version! ![Handmade LA galbi on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-21-1lspb-900.webp) It pairs really well with the sweet onion sauce. The bone part is nice and chewy, love that. First time buying LA galbi at a restaurant, and now I need to come back for it often! ![LA galbi served with onion sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-22-ytf7i-900.webp) ![Fully grilled ribs and side dishes on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-23-1aa03-900.webp) ![Two diners trying LA galbi, raw beef short ribs, and marinated ribs at Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs/yangju-mampo-galbi-la-galbi-beef-ribs-24-dxoek-900.webp) ## Free naengmyeon and bbeong-scream to finish the meal For dessert, each of us got a free bowl of naengmyeon.
