Even on a weekday lunch hour, plenty of office workers were there, and the atmosphere felt comfortable enough to eat alone while still enjoying a hearty pork cutlet. Here's my review of this Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station favorite. ![Weekday lunch pork cutlet spread at Hunta Euljiro](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-01-b6e8h-1200.webp) *After a weekday lunch at Hunta, a favorite near Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station* ## How far is it from Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station and City Hall Station? ![Exterior entrance of Hunta Euljiro](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-02-ly40y-966.webp) *The entrance of Hunta Euljiro* Hunta Euljiro is about a 1-minute walk from Exit 1-1 of Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station on Line 2. It's also about a 5-minute walk from City Hall Station on Line 1, so both stations offer easy access. Since the area is packed with offices around Euljiro and City Hall, it looked like a great spot for weekday lunch — comfortable for both an office worker's lunch or eating solo. ## Interior and bar table seating ![Interior view of Hunta Euljiro with black-toned decor](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-03-4jiw3-966.webp) *Interior of Hunta Euljiro* Walking inside, the black-toned interior felt clean, with natural light coming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Four-person tables lined the walls, with two-person tables scattered in between, making it easy to seat any group size. ![4-person tables lined along the wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-04-gpl4w-966.webp) Groups were pushing several 4-person tables together, and the spacing between seats was generous enough that it never felt cramped. ![Bar table seating facing the kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-05-1jnvq-966.webp) *Bar table seating at Hunta Euljiro* There was also a bar table across from the kitchen that could seat about four people, which made solo dining feel completely comfortable. ![Dining room at Hunta Euljiro on a weekday afternoon](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-06-xus72-966.webp) I visited around 1pm on a weekday, and since it was past the lunch peak, there were several solo diners eating as well. ![A corner of the restaurant with signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-07-h6lni-966.webp) ![A section of the restaurant with corporate prepayment signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-08-539o9-966.webp) Fitting for a neighborhood full of offices, the restaurant also runs a corporate prepayment service, which gave the impression that a lot of office workers eat here regularly. The staff were friendly, making it easy to eat comfortably — a spot that works well for solo dining or an office lunch on a weekday. ![Table setting with the ordering kiosk](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-09-3e6mv-966.webp) ## Menu and prices Hunta Euljiro serves not just cutlet sets but also katsudon (cutlet rice bowls) and combo sets. Ordering was easy through the tableside kiosk, which shows photos of each menu item. ![Ordering screen on the tableside kiosk](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-10-233f0-966.webp) ![Cutlet set menu board at Hunta Euljiro](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-11-147zh-966.webp) *Menu board at Hunta Euljiro* The set menu included a kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew) set for ₩15,000, with a choice of loin or fillet. The cutlet sets (jeongsik) came in several options: loin (₩14,000), fillet (₩16,000), loin & fillet (₩17,000), sangdeungsim (premium loin), a mixed cutlet plate, and chicken cutlet (₩14,000). ![Menu board listing katsudon options](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-12-1jk2x-966.webp) The katsudon lineup was just as varied: katarosu (₩23,000), sangdeungsim, loin (₩16,000), and chicken cutlet don (₩16,000). Fillet or chicken cutlet could each be added for ₩4,000. I went with the loin & fillet cutlet set (₩17,000) and a zero-sugar cola (₩2,000). With such a wide menu, it was easy to pick something to my taste. ![Seating area while waiting for the order](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-13-1l8kl-966.webp) ## Any wait at 1pm on a weekday? I visited alone around 1pm on a weekday. There was no wait at all — I was seated right away. Since it was a bit past the lunch rush, there was only one group of about eight people and a handful of other diners. ![Full spread of the loin & fillet cutlet set](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-14-1kgxo-966.webp) *Full spread of the loin & fillet cutlet set* ## What comes with the loin & fillet cutlet set After a short wait, the loin & fillet cutlet set arrived first. The set came with cutlet, rice, a light soup, salad, diced radish kimchi, scallion kimchi, and a variety of sauces. ![Scallion kimchi and diced radish kimchi served with the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-15-1qre8-966.webp) It was my first time seeing scallion kimchi served with pork cutlet, which felt like a fresh touch. The cutlets themselves looked appetizing too — thick cuts of meat wrapped in a nicely proportioned layer of breading. ![Plate of pork cutlet with thick breading](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-16-1g67w-966.webp) Beyond the standard cutlet sauce, there was wasabi, mustard, salt, kabosu pepper, and shichimi (Japanese seven-spice), so I could season each bite to my liking. ![Cross-section of the loin cutlet showing its juices](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-17-8ykt9-966.webp) *Cross-section of the loin cutlet* ### Loin (rosu katsu) I started with the loin, and true to being made with black pork, the texture was much more tender than I expected. ![A piece of the loin cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-18-1p7in-966.webp) ![Loin cutlet served with wasabi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-19-1bj4p-966.webp) It was delicious with wasabi, and a light sprinkle of kabosu pepper added a fragrant twist that made for an interesting combination. ![Pork cutlet sprinkled with kabosu pepper](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-20-jfzlh-966.webp) ### Fillet (hire katsu) The fillet looked juicy just from the cross-section, and tasting it confirmed it was even more tender and juicier than the loin. ![Cross-section of the juicy fillet cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-21-q41pg-966.webp) *Cross-section of the fillet cutlet* It went well with both wasabi and the cutlet sauce, so I could enjoy it however I liked. The accompanying soup had a subtle peppery aroma, and sipping it between bites helped cut through the richness. ![A bowl of peppery soup served with the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-22-1bik2-966.webp) The salad came with a savory dressing, and personally, the scallion kimchi paired so well with the cutlet that it ended up being the most memorable part of the meal. ![Salad with dressing and scallion kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-23-xjjym-966.webp) The portion was generous too — plenty even for an adult woman to feel full — and overall this struck me as a pork cutlet spot that delivers whether you're grabbing an office lunch or dining solo. ![The cutlet set table after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set-24-152n5-966.webp) ## Wrap-up Hunta Euljiro is a great pork cutlet spot for weekday lunch, being close to both Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station and City Hall Station. The atmosphere made solo dining easy, and I was happy to enjoy the tender texture of black pork cutlets along with the variety of sauces. If you're looking for a favorite near Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station, an office lunch spot near City Hall Station, or a good pork cutlet place for solo dining, it's worth a visit. ## Where it is - Hunta Euljiro (훈타 을지로) - 1F, Unit 106, FastFive Building, 24 Namdaemun-ro 9-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 중구 남대문로9길 24 패스트파이브 1층 106호 - 37.5671442, 126.9811504 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%9B%88%ED%83%80%20%EC%9D%84%EC%A7%80%EB%A1%9C/@37.5671442,126.9811504,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@neighborhood-menu-book/hunta-euljiro-ros-hire-katsu-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
