Yeouido bar after The Hyundai Seoul: bacon cheese rice cake skewer

What kind of place is Robadayakki Sodam, a bar in Yeouido?

Robadayakki Sodam Yeouido Branch is an izakaya (Japanese-style pub) serving mixed sashimi and skewer dishes in Yeouido, Seoul. I went with a friend on the weekend after we finished shopping at Hyundai department store nearby, and honestly, this place is such a great-value bar snack spot that it's made my top 3 izakayas I've been to lately.

The 4-set: small sashimi + mixed skewers for 44,000 won

The menu at Robadayakki Sodam Yeouido Branch ranges from set menus to grilled skewers, seafood, and fried dishes — a full izakaya lineup. We picked the 4-set (serves 2): small sashimi + mixed skewers for 44,000 won, which is 4,000 won off compared to ordering separately. We wanted both sashimi and skewers, so when we saw this great-value set, we ordered it right away.

The complimentary fried egg 🍳 — a classic, no-frills side dish.

What comes in the sashimi plate, and how does it taste?

The basic sashimi lineup was tuna, flounder, rockfish, salmon, sillago, and mullet. The portions were generous, and everything was fresh and chewy — so good. Even though yellowtail wasn't quite in season, it still melted in my mouth 🫢

* Note that the sashimi lineup may vary depending on the season and availability.

10 kinds of skewers, and the charcoal smoke that makes them

The mixed skewers came out as butter-grilled shrimp, bacon-wrapped enoki, bacon cheese rice cake, bacon tomato, button mushroom, king oyster mushroom, chicken skin, heart, garlic, and ginkgo nut. Ordering the mixed skewers got us an amazing variety for the price. I love izakayas and I'm a total skewer maniac, and this place is genuinely a skewer must-visit 👍🏻 Not overly salty or harsh — just the right sweet-and-salty seasoning plus that smoky char-grilled flavor, and such a wide variety too. Total value-for-money snacks, confirmed!

My personal favorite was the bacon cheese rice cake skewer! Bacon makes everything better 🐷 Anything with bacon is best eaten while it's still hot.
