Charcoal beef BBQ in Dadaepo, Busan with sea views: Hwarou Dadaepo

I went to Hwarou Dadaepo (화로우 다대포점), a Dadaepo favorite of mine. The value and the taste are both amazing, so I'm fully satisfied every time I go. It was so good that I went back again, and here's my revisit review!

What are the parking and atmosphere like at Hwarou Dadaepo?

Hwarou Dadaepo has a parking lot on the building's 1st floor. The restaurant is on the 7th floor, so you can see Dadaepo beach through the big windows.

It was a cloudy day, but the whole Dadaepo sea was still visible through the big window. The atmosphere was nice too 😄

The interior is very spacious, and the ventilation system works well, so it was comfortable.

Hwarou Dadaepo menu and basic side dishes

Hwarou Dadaepo sells beef, pork belly and ribs. We ordered Hwarou Set A, which we get every time.

First, a full spread of side dishes was set out. Only side dishes that go well with meat came out!

There was myeongi namul (pickled wild garlic-like greens) and several kinds of jangajji (pickled vegetables). The soy sauce-based pickles went so well with the meat. Onion and scallion salad came out too!

The basic side dishes can be refilled at the self-serve corner. They have myeongi namul there too, and as a myeongi namul lover, I was so happy haha.

Hwarou Set A: chuck flap tail, rib finger meat and skirt meat

The cuts in Hwarou Set A are chuck flap tail (salchi-sal), rib finger meat (galbi-sal) and skirt meat (toshi-sal). The beef is imported, but the quality was good, and I loved being able to eat beef at pork prices.

The chuck flap tail and rib finger meat had a decent amount of marbling.

Skirt meat, the cut meat lovers go crazy for,, it's a pretty tasty premium cut, and it came in the set menu!

Charcoal-grilled skirt meat

They put the skirt meat from Set A on first. The moderate thickness looked just right for grilled skirt meat.

The grill plate conducts heat well, so the meat got nice grill marks, and they filled it with plenty of charcoal, so the charcoal aroma soaked into the meat!

I tried the first piece with just the meat, and it was tender, with a deep, rich beefy flavor that was so good. Skirt meat, the cut meat lovers go crazy for,, 👏

It's also delicious with a little wasabi on top.

Eating just the meat is good, but myeongi namul goes so well with beef, right? haha

Eating it with the other pickles like this wiped away the greasiness and made it even tastier 👍

Chuck flap tail with salt and cheese fondue

Next is the chuck flap tail. I liked its deep, fresh color and decent marbling. It cooked up so juicy.

For the first piece I dipped it in just a little salt, and the nutty, clean flavor was so good. Chuck flap tail, of course! It also paired really well dipped in cheese fondue~

Rib finger meat with teriyaki sauce

Last is the rib finger meat. It's cut nicely into bite-size pieces.

Can you see the sizzling marbling? It's rich in fat and cooked up so deliciously. It got grill marks from the plate, so it looked even better too.

Golden and juicy, it looked delicious just by looking at it haha

The rib finger meat is good dipped in salt, and with this teriyaki sauce, the sweet flavor was awesome!!

The charcoal-grilled king oyster mushrooms smelled great too and went so well with the meat!

How is the doenjang-jjigae (₩4,000) at Hwarou Dadaepo?

For the meal dish, we ordered the doenjang-jjigae (soybean paste stew, ₩4,000). It was just the right amount for two people.

It had plenty of vegetables like zucchini, onion and tofu, plus meat, so the deep flavors of the vegetable and meat broth blended beautifully. It was the very definition of a good BBQ restaurant doenjang-jjigae.. wow

I put it on rice and mixed it up, and it was insanely good. Nothing beats this for finishing a meat meal,, Hwarou Dadaepo, with great value, taste and view, gave us a delicious and satisfying meal!

Hwarou Dadaepo is the place for beef and pork in Dadaepo. No matter how many times I come, I leave fully satisfied 👍
