We had fresh Korean pork ribs, handmade seasoned ribs, and free Hamheung mul-naengmyeon. A generously filling meal from banchan to dessert. ## Good to know - **Space**: Two floors; a group room on the second floor - **Parking**: Large parking lot - **Order**: 2 servings fresh Korean pork ribs, 1 serving handmade seasoned ribs, free Hamheung naengmyeon - **Basic sides**: Scallion salad, bellflower root salad, potato salad, seasoned peppers, pickled garlic scapes, shredded radish - **Dessert**: Iced coffee to go and free bbeong ice cream *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* ## Manpo Galbi in Yangju was busy even at lunch Nokdu and I came out for meat for the first time in a while. We arrived at lunchtime, and even the large parking lot was nearly full. Such a popular place, and I only just came now—what a shame, haha. This is Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch. With a first and second floor, it is perfect for gatherings in Yangju, too. Since it is so popular, we reserved on Naver beforehand, but the second floor was almost full too. There is also a group room upstairs, so it would be great for a family meal. The first floor was so packed that I could not even take photosㅠ ![Second-floor dining area at Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-01-1rx0v-966.webp) ![Second-floor seating at Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-02-1wbat-900.webp) ## Kiosk ordering and the self-service bar Every table has a menu and kiosk. Just choose what you want and order. We had already ordered two servings of fresh Korean pork ribs, one serving of handmade ribs, and the free Hamheung naengmyeon (cold noodles). ![Table menu and kiosk](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-03-1m07r-900.webp) ![Order of fresh Korean pork ribs and handmade ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-04-1d5xo-900.webp) The country-of-origin information is clearly posted, and aprons are available too. You can pick one up yourself. ![Country-of-origin information and self-service aprons](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-05-v4fxk-900.webp) Once seated, there is a whole spread of basic sides: scallion salad, bellflower root salad (I think?), and potato salad. The scallion salad goes so well with the meat, so definitely wrap some up together. The potato salad is perfect as a palate cleanser, too! There were crunchy seasoned peppers, pickled garlic scapes, and shredded radish as well. The garlic scapes were seriously delicious, haha. ![Basic sides of scallion salad and pickled garlic scapes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-06-r6dvs-900.webp) You can comfortably help yourself to the basic sides at the self-service bar. We separately brought back peppers, ssam (wrap) vegetables, and ssamjang dipping paste. ## A table that starts with yukhoe and yukjeon A special plus at Manpo Galbi is that yukhoe (seasoned raw beef), yukjeon (pan-fried battered beef), and salad are included. I do not think these are refillable, but with all the meat too, it was an enormous amount of food, haha. Nokdu happily ate the yukhoe, saying it had been a long time since having it. ![Table setting including yukhoe and yukjeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-07-1bjms-900.webp) ![Salad served before the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-08-19y50-900.webp) ![Yukhoe and accompanying dishes on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-09-dqxy8-900.webp) After trying a little of everything, the meat and grill arrived right away. Time to start grilling!! ![Fresh ribs starting to grill on the grill plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-10-1r9re-1200.webp) We started with the fresh ribs. Nokdu was in charge of grilling, haha. Nokdu also filmed a little video when he started grilling. Everything was perfect, from the regular sides to the complimentary side dishes. I recommend definitely trying the salad before the main meal, haha. ![Salad and sides before the meat meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-11-chq10-900.webp) ## Free Hamheung mul-naengmyeon and fresh ribs The tasting portion of naengmyeon we ordered in advance came out too. It is a huge serving for free noodles!! I had wanted to try the doenjang sulbap (soybean-paste rice soup), but I was too full, so I could notㅠㅠ ![A bowl of complimentary Hamheung naengmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-12-aysl5-900.webp) The Hamheung mul-naengmyeon that Dubu chose had very thin noodles, so it was easy to eat and delicious. The broth was really good too, haha. ![Hamheung mul-naengmyeon with thin noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-13-l3lsm-900.webp) Fresh Korean pork ribs grilled beautifully by Nokdu. I had a bite with pickled onions, and they were tender, moist, and so good. For pork, you really cannot beat scallion salad, ssamjang, and ssam vegetables. Wrapped in lettuce, it is the best. The meat was high quality and delicious without even a hint of odor. ![Fresh Korean pork ribs with pickled onions](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-14-rokyu-900.webp) Mul-naengmyeon with grilled meat is the best..ㅠ Even as I write this post, it was so delicious that I keep thinking about it. ![Mul-naengmyeon eaten with grilled meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-15-nntnz-900.webp) ![Table setting after eating the fresh ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-16-17udu-900.webp) ## Wrap the seasoned ribs in naengmyeon After happily eating the fresh ribs, we began grilling the second round: seasoned ribs. The seasoned ribs even had two rib bones, haha. Nokdu happily gnawed on the fresh-rib bones. He ate them all in no time because they were that good, lol. ![Seasoned ribs with rib bones](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-17-eg3p8-900.webp) ![Seasoned ribs grilling with rib bones](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-18-185xk-900.webp) What if you wrap those deliciously grilled seasoned ribs in naengmyeon? Mmm... so deliciousㅠㅠㅠ If you are looking for a great restaurant in Yangju, I totally, absolutely recommend it!!! The marinade was a little sweet and salty, and so tasty! The meat was tender and genuinely amazing too. Dubu preferred the seasoned ribs, while Nokdu said the fresh ribs were better, haha. ![Seasoned ribs eaten with naengmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-19-1rdcj-900.webp) ## Coffee and bbeong ice cream for dessert After eating until we were stuffed, we went down to the first floor to pay. There was dental floss, toothpicks, and more in front of the counter, so I took a photo. It was my first time seeing dental floss at a restaurant.. Nokdu spotted it and used some right away, lol. ![Dental floss and toothpicks in front of the counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-20-lagy0-900.webp) ![Dining convenience items around the checkout counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-21-1285y-900.webp) Another reason Manpo Galbi in Yangju is great for a meal: they even have ice cups, and you can take iced coffee to go. You can fill one with instant coffee too, so make whatever you prefer! We were way too full, so we passed on coffee, haha. ![Iced coffee takeaway information](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-22-iz7ae-900.webp) You cannot resist bbeong ice cream;; This is another free dessert! Just take a piece of bbeongtwigi (puffed rice snack), add ice cream, and eat it. Nokdu was setting up the bbeong ice cream. You can pile on as much ice cream as you want, haha. Following Dubu's order, Nokdu piled it high with ice cream. ![Ice cream dessert added to puffed rice snacks](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-23-8090b-900.webp) ![Puffed rice snack dessert topped with ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo-24-fktzy-900.webp) Some people eat only the bbeongtwigi, while others sandwich the ice cream between two pieces. We were so full that we shared one bbeong ice cream. Truly the best dessert.. It had been a while since we went out for meat, and we visited Manpo Galbi, a great restaurant in Yangju. The prices were affordable, and the basic sides were plentiful. Best of all, the naengmyeon was free and even dessert was perfect. We kept saying we should come back with our parents next time while eating. There were quite a few families dining there too, so I really recommend it!! ## Where it is - Manpo Galbi Yangju Main Branch (만포갈비 양주본점) - 65 Songrang-ro, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기도 양주시 송랑로 65 1층, 만포갈비) - 경기도 양주시 송랑로 65 1층, 만포갈비 - 37.7912149, 127.0873715 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%8C%ED%8F%AC%EA%B0%88%EB%B9%84%20%EC%96%91%EC%A3%BC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.7912149,127.0873715,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@neighborhood-rice-table/yangju-pork-ribs-noodle-manpo/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
