On a weekday at 7:30pm the 75-seat hall was nearly full, and the Obongjip Special at 62,000 won was ordered by kiosk and shared between two, with self-serve seaweed soup and banchan from the bar. Spicy octopus, mild bossam and tangy noodles in one set made Obongjip an easy no-debate dinner. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1F, 62 Teheran-ro 81-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul - **Menu ordered**: Obongjip Special 62,000 won (fire-grilled stir-fried octopus for 2 + small bossam + tray makguksu) - **Seating**: 75-seat hall, plus a group room for 15 - **Parking**: No dedicated lot; nearby Samseong-dong First Parking Tower (paid) - **Lunch specials**: 11am–3pm, weekdays only / stir-fried octopus 13,000 won, stir-fried pork 11,000 won, bossam set 11,000 won - **Visit time**: Weekday around 7:30pm, tables nearly full - **Self-serve bar**: Banchan and dishes self-serve, seaweed soup included *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* ![Obongjip Samseong Branch's Obongjip Special full spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-01-1v9oe-m-1200.webp) Today I went to Obongjip Samseong Branch, famous as a Samseong Station restaurant, and I'm bringing back a review of the Obongjip Special that lets you enjoy stir-fried octopus, bossam and makguksu noodles all on one table haha It's often mentioned as a Samseong Station restaurant and a COEX-area restaurant too, so I figured a lot of people would be curious — so I put together everything from location to menu to taste in detail. ## Where is Obongjip Samseong Branch, and is there parking? Obongjip Samseong Branch is on the 1st floor of 62 Teheran-ro 81-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. There's no dedicated store parking lot. The nearest paid parking is Samseong-dong First Parking Tower nearby. ## What kind of restaurant is Obongjip Samseong Branch? ![Entrance of Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-02-1cgxh-900.webp) Obongjip is a Korean food brand known for its menu combining stir-fried octopus and bossam. ![Spacious hall seating at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-03-1n3ht-m-900.webp) The Samseong branch has a spacious hall that fits up to 75 people plus a 15-person group room, so I found it's also a popular spot for Samseong Station work dinners. ![Interior table view of Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-04-1oai0-900.webp) On days when you want to try several Korean dishes at once among Samseong Station restaurants ![Korean menu signage at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-05-stv81-900.webp) this is exactly the kind of combo this place pushes, so I went in with high expectations. ## How busy is Obongjip at 7:30pm on a weekday? The moment I walked in.. so~ many people haha I went around 7:30pm on a weekday and the tables were almost completely full. The spacing between tables isn't super wide, but the tables themselves are big so eating wasn't uncomfortable at all. There's a separate self-serve bar, so if you're short on banchan you can grab more yourself, and there are plenty of dishes too. ![Self-serve seaweed soup at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-06-1y42m-900.webp) This seaweed soup in particular was really fresh and piping hot, with that homemade taste — I loved it. ![Group seating and room space at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-07-qsqm0-900.webp) There are group seats and a room too, so it looked like a popular lunch or work-dinner spot for office workers looking for a Samseong-dong restaurant. ![Country-of-origin labeling board at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-08-tb6ma-900.webp) The country-of-origin labels were also clearly marked, so extra peace of mind haha ## Obongjip Samseong Branch menu and prices ### Main dishes at Obongjip - Nakji Obong Special (stir-fried octopus for 2 + small bossam + makguksu) ₩62,000 - Squid Obong Special (stir-fried squid for 2 + small bossam + makguksu) ₩62,000 - Maesaengi Yeonpo Bossam (soft octopus soup + small bossam + porridge + kalguksu noodles) ₩59,000 - Gabri Suyuk Jeongol (hot pot) ₩34,000 - Maesaengi Yeonpotang (soup + kalguksu noodles) ₩32,000 - Spicy octopus hot pot ₩32,000 - Obong Bossam (small) ₩33,000 / (medium) ₩38,000 / (large) ₩44,000 ### Lunch specials (11am–3pm, weekdays only) - Grilled octopus stir-fry ₩13,000 - Mild-spice octopus stir-fry ₩13,000 - Grilled octopus-pork stir-fry ₩13,000 - Grilled squid stir-fry ₩13,000 - Grilled squid-pork stir-fry ₩13,000 - Grilled pork stir-fry ₩11,000 - Bossam set (single order available) ₩11,000 ### Rice and noodle dishes - Grilled octopus stir-fry ₩14,000 - Mild-spice octopus stir-fry ₩14,000 - Grilled octopus-pork stir-fry ₩14,000 - Kalnakji ₩14,000 - Grilled squid stir-fry ₩14,000 - Grilled squid-pork stir-fry ₩14,000 - Grilled pork stir-fry ₩11,000 - Bossam set (single order available) ₩12,000 - Clam kalguksu ₩10,000 (estimated) ### Anju: dishes to share with drinks - Cuttlefish sukhoe (parboiled) ₩25,000 - Tofu kimchi ₩22,000 - Mung bean pancake ₩15,000 - Pancake (kimchi/chive) ₩15,000 - King dumplings (meat/kimchi/half-half, 4pc) ₩6,000 - Steamed egg ₩5,000 Among the many menu items, the Obongjip Special — which lets you try three dishes at once — is the most popular combination. ![Menu board at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-09-g4ppq-900.webp) ![Kiosk ordering screen at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-10-uc4x2-m-900.webp) Ordering is easy — just use the kiosk! ## Obongjip Special at 62,000 won: enough for two? It's a menu that brings out stir-fried octopus, bossam and makguksu noodles all at once, so it was perfect for a day when I wanted to eat a bit of everything. Rather than ordering just one dish, being able to share several foods made it a combo I'd recommend to anyone struggling to decide what to order at a Samseong Station restaurant. The portion was plenty for two people to share, and between the spicy octopus stir-fry, the mild bossam and the tangy makguksu, nothing was lacking. ## The banchan and self-serve seaweed soup The side dishes were generous from the start! Seaweed soup plus my favorite seasoned stir-fried sausage~ haha From white kimchi to various braised bean sprouts, it was a lineup that went well mixed into the octopus stir-fry or rice. ## Bossam (boiled pork with wraps) The bossam was so tender first of all. It was boiled soft with no off odor, so it was a perfect match to eat between bites of the spicy octopus stir-fry! The bossam kimchi and pickled radish were also really fresh. ![Small bossam and bossam kimchi from the Obongjip Special](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-11-1a4wf-900.webp) ![Tender boiled bossam meat at Obongjip](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-12-1pq88-900.webp) ![Pickled radish side dish served with bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-13-1xt6i-900.webp) Topped with kimchi and pickled radish, it was honey-sweet..!! ![A bossam wrap topped with kimchi and pickled radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-14-1j6r7-900.webp) ![Lifting up a bossam wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-15-15312-900.webp) If you keep eating only spicy food you can get tired of it fast, but pairing in bossam between bites made the flavor combo great. ## Tray makguksu (chilled buckwheat noodles) ![A bowl of makguksu noodles from the Obongjip Special](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-16-kq2nw-900.webp) The makguksu, with its sweet-and-tangy sauce, did a great job of cleaning the palate. The sauce color looked really deep, but when actually eaten it wasn't that strong a seasoning, which I liked. Put on the disposable gloves and shake it up properly~ After eating the octopus stir-fry or bossam, taking a chopstick-full of makguksu ![A chopstick-full of mixed makguksu noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-17-m5f0r-900.webp) completely resets your palate so your hand keeps going back for more hahaha ![Sweet-and-tangy makguksu noodles, mixed and ready](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-18-w5l4f-900.webp) The makguksu can get soggy, so it's best to eat it quickly haha ## Fire-grilled stir-fried octopus True to its 'grilled' name, the smoky char that hit my nose the moment it landed on the table was great. Look at the octopus..!! It was super springy. ![Springy octopus in the grilled octopus stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-19-1j1t8-900.webp) I ordered the regular spice level, and the sauce was moderately spicy with rich umami that soaked in well, ![Grilled octopus stir-fry ordered at regular spice level](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-20-4oskn-900.webp) a taste that kept pulling my chopsticks back no matter how much I ate haha Of course you have to mix it with rice — sprinkle on the seaweed flakes, add the octopus too ![Bibimbap topped with seaweed flakes and octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-21-hhqty-900.webp) and mixed in with the bean sprouts too, the crunchy texture makes it even more delicious, love it♥ ![Octopus bibimbap mixed in with bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-22-15ms3-900.webp) The octopus texture was really good too. Eating it with rice made it filling and great for an energy boost~ haha ## Who Obongjip Samseong Branch suits best ![Full table spread at Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-23-1xp9f-900.webp) - ① Anyone looking for a Samseong Station restaurant - ② Anyone wanting to enjoy several dishes at once as a Samseong-dong or COEX restaurant - ③ Anyone looking for a work-dinner spot near Samseong Station - ④ Anyone who wants spicy and mild food together - ⑤ Anyone looking for a spot good for 3–4 people to share ## Final thoughts on dinner at Obongjip Samseong Branch ![Closing shot of Obongjip Samseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special/obongjip-samseong-weeknight-special-24-swbf4-m-900.webp) Obongjip Samseong Branch, where you can enjoy stir-fried octopus, bossam and makguksu all at once and the taste was top-notch too! The place is spacious and even the self-serve bar details are well taken care of, so it's a place I want to save on my Samseong Station restaurant list.
