Sitting in the annex with her dog Choco, the writer ordered the Kkotgeok C-set for two at 80,000 won — soy-marinated crab, spicy marinated crab and crab stew — with draft beer at lunch, and the roe-filled Yeonpyeong Island crab was not too salty and so full of roe and guts that it was worth mixing into butter rice. For a hearty seasonal crab meal with a dog along, the Kkotgeok annex is the easy choice. ## Good to know - **Menu / Price**: Kkotgeok C-set for two, 80,000 won (soy-marinated crab, spicy marinated crab, crab stew) - **Dogs allowed**: Main hall and annex are separate; the annex is the dog-friendly space (guidelines posted) - **Seating**: Spacious interior with a separate private room at the back - **Parking**: Plenty of parking, in keeping with the large building - **Hours**: 11:00–21:00, open daily (check before visiting) - **Takeout**: Takeout available - **Location**: 1F, Building A, 204 Yuryang-ro, Dongnam-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do - **Price reference**: ₩80,000 ≈ $57.5 (2026-09-19) *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* September rolled around and with the fattening season here, I started craving seasonal food! Today's dish is fall's plump, in-season crab 🦀 I found this spot while looking for dog-friendly restaurants in Cheonan I could go to with Choco. Here's my review of Kkotgeok, where I feasted on soy marinated crab, spicy marinated crab, and crab stew 😉 ## Kkotgeok in Yuryang-dong, Cheonan: dogs eat in the annex Kkotgeok is a soy crab (gejang) specialty Korean restaurant in Yuryang-dong, Cheonan, with its space fully split into a main hall and an annex — guests with dogs use the annex. Parking is generous to match the large exterior ‼️ The interior was spacious and clean, and there was a separate private room inside too, which looked great for gatherings or dinners out 😊 What I loved as a dog-friendly restaurant was that the main hall and annex are completely separate spaces! The annex is set up for guests with dogs — there's a usage guide posted, so please check it if you're bringing your dog! ![Exterior of Kkotgeok in Yuryang-dong, Cheonan with its spacious parking area](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-01-b89zh-900.webp) ![Entrance to Kkotgeok's main hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-02-zoqrt-900.webp) ![Spacious, clean seating inside Kkotgeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-03-dnqxc-900.webp) ![A separate private room inside Kkotgeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-04-rwijw-900.webp) ![Kkotgeok's annex for guests bringing dogs](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-05-11d9d-900.webp) ![Usage guide notice for the dog-friendly annex at Kkotgeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-06-17o2n-900.webp) ## Kkotgeok's menu and side dishes Kkotgeok's menu was varied, with soy marinated crab and spicy marinated crab as the mains, plus boiled pork, dried yellow corvina, and crab stew 😆 ![Kkotgeok's menu board listing soy and spicy marinated crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-07-1mjz4-m-900.webp) ![Menu items including boiled pork, dried corvina, and crab stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-08-1e6xe-900.webp) They said the crab and crab stew are domestic, so I was really looking forward to the in-season crab 🤗 The side dishes that came out first paired well with the crab, and honestly... the japchae (stir-fried glass noodles) was so good haha ![A spread of side dishes that pair well with crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-09-1i99q-900.webp) Disposable gloves were set out so we could eat the crab comfortably, and of course there was sesame oil too 😝 ![Disposable gloves and sesame oil set out at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-10-15f6v-900.webp) ## What comes in the Kkotgeok C-set for two (80,000 won) We ordered the Kkotgeok C-set for two at ₩80,000, which comes with soy marinated crab, spicy marinated crab, and crab stew together. Then the food arrived!! ![The full spread of Kkotgeok's C-set for two](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-11-138hp-900.webp) Soy marinated crab, spicy marinated crab, and crab stew all together — just looking at it made me hungry and full at the same time ❣️ ![Soy marinated crab, spicy marinated crab, and crab stew served together](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-12-16m82-900.webp) The second I saw the crab, I ordered a draft beer right away~🍺 (day drinking is the best!!) ![A glass of draft beer ordered alongside the crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-13-9azq4-900.webp) ## Yeonpyeong Island roe-filled soy crab with butter rice Kkotgeok's soy marinated crab uses roe-filled crab from Yeonpyeong Island, and maybe because of that the pieces were big and plump with meat 😋 The soy sauce seasoning soaked moistly between the crab meat, and I liked that it wasn't too salty ‼️ Every time I picked up a piece to eat, the crab meat and roe were just packed in there..!!😘 The shell was full of guts too, so how could I possibly resist mixing rice into the crab shell~~🤪 ![Yeonpyeong Island roe-filled soy marinated crab packed with meat and roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-14-1uxe1-900.webp) The soy crab's gentle sweetness blended with the rich, deep flavor of the guts for a savory, umami-packed bite 🤎 ![Rice mixed into a crab shell still full of guts](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-15-td9ty-900.webp) Kkotgeok also thoughtfully gives you butter ![Butter served alongside the crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-16-9s05f-900.webp) Mixing it in gives you an even nuttier flavor, so make sure to try it this way!!! ![Nutty crab butter rice mixed with butter](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-17-190sp-900.webp) Choco waited (sort of) patiently, and since it's a dog-friendly space, we got to eat comfortably 😍 ![Choco the dog waiting in the dog-friendly space](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-18-mumjh-900.webp) ## How were Kkotgeok's spicy marinated crab and crab stew? Kkotgeok's spicy marinated crab was piled high with minari (water celery) and chili peppers, and just looking at it I could tell the spicy-sweet seasoning was going to be good 😙 The thick sauce coated the crab meat evenly, and behind the spiciness there was a lingering sweetness! ![Kkotgeok's spicy marinated crab topped with minari and chili peppers](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-19-17vmb-1200.webp) Look at how plump and full the meat is in the spicy crab too..!! (mouth-watering visual 🤤) Piling the spicy crab meat over white rice went perfectly with the sweet-spicy sauce 👏🏻👏🏻 Now to finish off, the crab stew 🦀🦀 The umami of the crab was fully melted into the broth ![Umami-rich broth of the crab stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-20-1r9ts-900.webp) Spicy yet refreshingly clean-tasting! ![A bowl of spicy, refreshing crab stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-21-p6ztl-900.webp) ![Meaty crab pieces in the crab stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-22-dsvyt-900.webp) The crab stew was also loaded with meat and felt hearty, and eating it with rice made it even better — we finished the meal fully satisfied to the end 🧡 Crab really is a rice thief 🍚🍚🍚 ![Finishing the meal with crab stew and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-23-1k73l-900.webp) Kkotgeok also does takeout, so keep that in mind if you're interested 😄 ![View of Kkotgeok with takeout information posted](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab-24-c3wpb-900.webp) This was my review of Kkotgeok, a soy marinated crab and spicy marinated crab spot in Yuryang-dong, Cheonan, made even better because I got to enjoy it with Choco 😉 ## One-line verdict on Kkotgeok - Recommended if you're looking for a great Korean restaurant in Yuryang-dong, Cheonan! - Even more recommended if you're looking for a dog-friendly restaurant in Cheonan! - Plump Yeonpyeong crab prepared both soy-marinated and spicy-marinated in one meal! - A hearty two-person set that even includes crab stew! 📍Location: 1F, Building A, 204 Yuryang-ro, Dongnam-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, Kkotgeok Cheonan Yuryang-dong Branch / ⏰Hours: 11:00–21:00 / No closed days (please check the latest business info before visiting) ## Where it is - Kkotgeok Cheonan Yuryang-dong Branch (꽃게옥 천안유량동점) - 1F, Building A, 204 Yuryang-ro, Dongnam-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea - 충청남도 천안시 동남구 유량로 204 A동 1층 - 36.8125019, 127.181033 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%BD%83%EA%B2%8C%EC%98%A5%20%EC%B2%9C%EC%95%88%EC%9C%A0%EB%9F%89%EB%8F%99%EC%A0%90/@36.8125019,127.181033,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@meal-impressions-2/kkotgeok-cheonan-yuryangdong-pet-friendly-crab/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
