Jin 1926 Dasan Branch: a lamb restaurant a short walk from Dasan Station

My family loves lamb, so we visited Jin 1926 Dasan Branch, a Dasan Station favorite. We usually just eat lamb skewers, but wanting to feed the kids some good lamb, we came here — and it was such a satisfying meal.

Jin 1926 Dasan Branch is really close to Dasan Station, so it's very accessible. It seems like a great spot for both work dinners and family gatherings.

Inside Jin 1926 Dasan Branch and the high chair for kids

The interior has a really upscale look, with cozy lighting that makes for a great dining mood. The table spacing was also on the wider side, so we didn't feel awkward talking.

There's a kids' chair too, so it was easy to seat the children comfortably.

Side dishes and the complimentary bean sprouts

Since we had a reservation, the basic side dishes were already set up when we arrived. Each one was neatly prepared, which made me happy, and they tasted great too.

The vegetables to be grilled alongside the lamb were also prepared in generous amounts like this.

The complimentary bean sprouts were really delicious. As a homemaker, I wanted to ask for the recipe. I could have finished a whole bowl of rice with just that.

Before the meat comes out, they grill the vegetables first.

French rack 33,000 won vs lamb ribs 31,000 won

French rack, 33,000 won per serving, and lamb ribs, 31,000 won per serving, plus the review event serving. The lamb we ordered came out. They only use chilled Australian lamb, so the quality was noticeably different from frozen lamb — the marbling looked great and I wanted to dig in right away.

When the kids are young, like mine, grilling the meat yourself can be tough, so I really appreciated that the staff grilled everything from the meat to the side vegetables — it meant we could enjoy the meal deliciously right to the end.

The lamb was great, but as a vegetable lover, the tomatoes, onions, shishito peppers, and king oyster mushrooms were also so tasty. Thinking about it again makes my mouth water.

The French rack and lamb ribs slowly cooking to perfection. Once fully cooked, they arrange the meat nicely on a plate for you like this.

Did the 3-year-old and 5-year-old actually eat the lamb?

At first, we just dipped it in salt to taste the natural flavor of the meat. The outside was nicely browned and the inside was really juicy, packed with flavorful fat.

I was especially worried the kids wouldn't eat it because of lamb's characteristic gamey smell, but there was none at all, and the texture was so tender that the 3-year-old and 5-year-old chewed and ate it all without spitting anything out.

You know how kids chew something and spit it out or just stop eating if it doesn't suit their taste? My 3-year-old and 5-year-old really ate it well. Doesn't that basically make this place officially verified as good? (Made me think I need to work harder to earn money, haha.)

Ordering one more serving of lamb ribs

Since the kids ate so well, we added a second serving of lamb ribs. At other places, the lamb ribs don't have much meat on the bone, but at Jin 1926 Dasan Branch, there was a really generous amount of meat attached to the bone.

The staff grilled the lamb to just the right doneness like this. They really grill it so well.

Having mostly eaten lamb skewers before, I was truly in heaven eating the lamb ribs. With every bite, the savory flavor lingered in my mouth for a long time.

My personal favorite way to eat the delicious lamb is simply dipped in salt. Fresh meat really is best with just a bit of salt.

They grill the rib bones and hand them to you wrapped in paper like this. I really love this kind of service.

There's just something fun about eating meat off the bone like this, right?

Finishing with bibim guksu for 7,000 won

Bibim guksu (spicy mixed noodles), 7,000 won. This dish is really delicious eaten alongside the lamb. It's sweet and tangy, and wrapping it with the meat tastes absolutely amazing. I'd definitely recommend ordering it.

After eating mostly lamb skewers all this time, Jin 1926 Dasan Branch showed us the true flavor of lamb. Our family was so satisfied that we'll probably be back often. It's just as good for a work dinner as it is for a family gathering, so definitely check it out. 😊
