I'm what you'd call a sauce killer, someone who genuinely loves dipping meat into sauce haha, so the fact that they gave us four house sauces won me over immediately. ## Where is Shashlik Masan Branch, and how are parking and reservations? Shashlik Masan Branch is on the 2nd floor of a building at 7 Deokdongnam 1-gil, Masanhappo-gu, Changwon, Gyeongnam, South Korea, and it has its own parking lot, so it's convenient even if you're driving. ![Exterior of Shashlik Deokdong Branch, 2nd floor on Deokdongnam 1-gil in Masan](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-02-kjncn-1200.webp) 📍 Shashlik Masan Branch / 7 Deokdongnam 1-gil, Masanhappo-gu, Changwon, Gyeongnam, South Korea, 2nd floor Gapo and Deokdong tend to draw a lot of couples driving in for a date, so not having to worry about parking is a real plus. We went on a Wednesday around 7:30 p.m. — I'd recommend booking ahead if you're going on a weekend. ## What we ordered at Shashlik Masan Branch and what it cost That day at Shashlik Deokdong we ordered pork belly-neck charcoal grill for ₩25,000, chicken thigh charcoal grill for ₩12,500, a truffle fries plate, and homemade lemonade. ![Table spread of our order at Shashlik Deokdong](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-03-cjxdj-900.webp) ![Pork belly-neck charcoal grill with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-04-1hmp9-900.webp) ![Plate of charcoal-grilled meat skewered on sticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-05-jbz8s-900.webp) ![A plate of chicken thigh charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-06-ad3m1-900.webp) ![Homemade lemonade and table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-07-ftm9l-900.webp) ![Close-up of the charcoal-grilled meat, already cooked](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-08-1olxc-900.webp) ![Our full menu lineup on the table at Shashlik Deokdong](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-09-926mh-900.webp) What my husband and I ordered that day was - Pork belly-neck charcoal grill ₩25,000 - Chicken thigh charcoal grill ₩12,500 - Truffle fries plate - Homemade lemonade I got curious about the name and looked it up — shashlik refers to cubes of marinated meat grilled on skewers, haha. True to the name, charcoal-grilled meat is the main event, but instead of grilling it ourselves at the table, it came out already cooked, so it was nice being able to just chat with my husband while we ate. ![A piece of fully grilled charcoal meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-10-148zp-900.webp) Great for anyone who finds grilling their own meat a hassle (me) — since it comes out fully cooked, all you have to do is eat. ## Pork belly and neck, chicken thigh and the four house sauces Shashlik Deokdong served an owner-made special sauce alongside teriyaki, garlic, mustard, and spicy sauce — four in total. As a genuine sauce killer, this lineup made me so happy haha. The same meat tastes completely different depending on which sauce you dip it in, so I never got tired of it. ![Four sauce dishes including the house special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-11-bymqb-900.webp) ![Dipping meat into one of the sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-12-dhkv8-900.webp) By the end I was just dipping into all four sauces at once. The sauces were so good. ![Meat paired with teriyaki and garlic sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-13-1q6ea-900.webp) ![Pork belly-neck charcoal grill dipped in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-14-a94kf-900.webp) The teriyaki and garlic sauces were especially to my taste. Charcoal-grilled meat has its own distinct aroma, and paired with a sweet or pungent sauce, I kept reaching for more. If you love meat, the pork belly-neck needs no explanation. The chicken thigh was genuinely tender — I wished I could've had a whole kilogram of it. I was glad we ordered both. ## The truffle fries plate comes with ciabatta too The truffle fries plate at Shashlik Deokdong isn't just fries — it comes with ciabatta bread too. ![Truffle fries plate served with ciabatta](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-15-j50ot-900.webp) Spreading jam on the bread was so good — I mean, who cares that I was already full? One of the sauces served alongside tasted yogurt-like to me, and it was a real hidden gem. Dipping the salty fries in it lightly mellowed out the saltiness, and it worked surprisingly well. ![Dipping fries into a yogurt-like sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-16-1mpnh-900.webp) ![Ciabatta with jam alongside the fries](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-17-vp5yo-900.webp) If you like truffle fries, this is well worth ordering as a side. ## We meant to order fried rice as well, but ran out of room Our original plan that day was, "Let's finish the meat, then get fried rice!" But... between the pork belly-neck, the chicken thigh, the fries, and the ciabatta, we got way too full for fried rice. I heard from someone who'd been that the fried rice made after the meat is really good too. So next time I'll pace the side dishes so I can actually get to the fried rice. Consider it homework haha. If you've tried the fried rice, leave a review! ## Bonfire and marshmallow roasting after dinner Here's the reason Shashlik Deokdong stuck with me: once we finished eating, they gave us marshmallows to roast over a bonfire outside. Honestly, I used to be the type who thought, "why bother roasting marshmallows?" haha. But this was the first time I properly roasted one, and now I get it. 🔥🔥🔥 The outside gets slightly crisp while the inside turns completely soft and chewy. It's seriously amazing — it tasted like a totally different food from a plain marshmallow. I fell in love with roasted marshmallows that night, haha. We came for dinner and ended up making another kind of memory with my husband, sitting by the fire and roasting marshmallows. ## A Gapo restaurant with sea views if you come during the day Apparently you can see the sea from Shashlik Deokdong if you visit during the day. We went in the evening, so we got the night-view atmosphere instead. ![Outdoor area at Shashlik Deokdong lit up in the evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-18-fliji-900.webp) ![Evening view of the outdoor terrace at Shashlik Deokdong](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-19-18b6m-900.webp) ![Night view and lighting in the Gapo Deokdong area](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-20-10oeu-900.webp) ![The outdoor bonfire spot at Shashlik Deokdong](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-21-f9egq-900.webp) ![A vertical photo taken in the night-view atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-22-1tkdv-900.webp) ![An evening photo taken in front of Shashlik Deokdong](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-23-16y4q-900.webp) If you're heading to Gapo or Deokdong for a date, it'd be great to pair sea views during the day with charcoal grill for dinner and a bonfire to finish. It's not just a place to eat and leave — you can take photos before and after the meal and sit by the fire for a bit, so it's especially satisfying for a date. ## The mirror photo zone and the dining room atmosphere Inside, there's even a mirror photo zone for taking pictures — nice touch from the owner. ![The mirror photo zone inside Shashlik Deokdong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds-24-helpi-900.webp) These days, taste matters, but it's also nice having a spot to snap a photo on a date. The restaurant itself was clean overall, so it was comfortable to eat in, and the owner was really kind — I felt good the whole time we were there. ## What we liked about Shashlik Masan Branch Having been there myself, here's what stood out: - Charcoal-grilled meat that comes already cooked - A good mix of pork belly-neck and chicken thigh - A wide range of sauces, including a house-made special sauce - Great side lineup with truffle fries and ciabatta - Bonfire available after the meal - You get to roast your own marshmallows - Sea views during the daytime - Mirror photo zone - On-site parking - Kind owner and a clean space This would especially suit anyone looking for a good date restaurant in Gapo. ## Who Shashlik Masan Branch is best for I'd especially recommend this to anyone heading to Gapo with a husband, girlfriend, or boyfriend for a date, anyone looking for a restaurant with a bit more atmosphere than a typical barbecue place, anyone who prefers meat served already grilled over grilling it themselves, and — like me — anyone who loves a place that's generous with sauces, haha. Next time I visit, I'm definitely getting the fried rice I was too full for this time. Shashlik in Gapo Deokdong — went for meat, ended up by a bonfire roasting marshmallows too. If you want your dinner to feel like more of a date than just a regular meal, it's worth a visit. 🤍 ## Where it is - Shashlik Masan Branch (샤슬릭 마산점) - 7 Deokdongnam 1-gil, Masanhappo-gu, Changwon, Gyeongnam, South Korea, 2nd floor - 경상남도 창원시 마산합포구 덕동남1길 7 2층 - 35.1404288, 128.5770833 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%83%A4%EC%8A%AC%EB%A6%AD%20%EB%A7%88%EC%82%B0%EC%A0%90/@35.1404288,128.5770833,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@jangsan-evening-skillet/masan-gapo-shashlik-dukdong-sauce-fourkinds/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
