Visiting with two children, we ordered 2 servings of the original salt-grilled dakgalbi and 1 serving of the house-marinated version with cheese fondue and spicy buckwheat mak guksu noodles to compare the two flavors side by side, and a meal came with a 6-hour free parking pass. Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi made a generous, easy meal for a family of four on a Gapyeong trip. ## Good to know - **What we ordered**: 2 servings original salt-grilled dakgalbi, 1 serving house-marinated dakgalbi, spicy buckwheat mak guksu, cheese fondue - **Ordering rule**: First order must be 2 or more servings of the same flavor; after that you can add 1 serving at a time - **Parking**: Large lot in front of the restaurant and a separate lot across the road; 6-hour free parking pass with a meal - **Pets**: Small dogs under 10kg allowed - **With children**: High chairs available - **Self-serve bar**: Dongchimi (watery radish kimchi) self-serve - **Takeout**: Uncooked takeout: 3 servings for the price of 2 - **Recognition**: Selected for the 2026 Blue Ribbon Survey *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* ![A full spread of charcoal-grilled dakgalbi at Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi in Gapyeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-01-g1uzf-1200.webp) I recently went on a trip to Gapyeong with my kids. Whenever we go to Gapyeong, we try to find one dish the kids love, and this time, after some thought, we decided to eat dakgalbi (grilled chicken), something the whole family enjoys. ![Exterior of the dakgalbi restaurant found during a Gapyeong trip](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-02-y1wwc-966.webp) There are so many dakgalbi restaurants in Gapyeong that I had to search around before landing on Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi. It's near Nami Island, so it's convenient to stop by before or after sightseeing, and the parking lot is large and easy to use. ## Where is Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi, and how does the 6-hour free parking pass work? Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi has a large parking lot right in front of the restaurant, plus a separate lot just across the street. If you eat there, you also get a 6-hour free parking pass, which makes it a great stop when visiting Nami Island! ![Large parking lot in front of Anbanji Dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-03-tt9ej-966.webp) ![Scenery around Anbanji Dakgalbi near the Nami Island pier](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-04-lo2kl-966.webp) Just a short walk away, the Nami Island pier comes into view, so you could plan to eat either before or after exploring the island. If you're looking for a place to eat near Nami Island, this is a great pick to keep in mind as one of the best Nami Island dakgalbi restaurants. ## Inside Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi, a 2026 Blue Ribbon pick Walking into Anbanji Dakgalbi, the whole place felt clean, and the tables were spaced well enough for a comfortable family meal. Baby chairs were also on hand. ![Clean interior and tables at Anbanji Dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-05-1uigh-966.webp) ![Family seating with a baby chair ready](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-06-1p2p8-966.webp) Small dogs up to 10kg are allowed inside. Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi was also selected for the 2026 Blue Ribbon Survey, so knowing it's a vetted spot made it an easier choice when searching for the best dakgalbi in Gapyeong. ## Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi menu and how to order On this visit we ordered 2 servings of the original salt-grilled dakgalbi, 1 serving of the house-marinated dakgalbi, spicy buckwheat noodles, and cheese fondue. Your first order has to be 2 or more servings of the same flavor, but additional orders can be 1 serving at a time. ![Menu board at Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-07-e6esk-966.webp) ![Raw original salt-grilled and house-marinated dakgalbi as served](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-08-1roif-966.webp) Since we were eating with the kids, we went with 2 servings of salt-grilled, and since we were curious about the marinated version too, we added 1 extra serving. ![Side dishes served with the dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-09-ixyuq-966.webp) ![Plate of lettuce wraps and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-10-nygun-966.webp) Side dishes and lettuce wraps that pair well with dakgalbi came out with the meal. The dongchimi (watery radish kimchi) was self-serve, so we could take as much as we wanted from the bar. ![Dongchimi taken from the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-11-lgt12-966.webp) ![Dakgalbi placed on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-12-1676h-m-966.webp) Once the dakgalbi went on the charcoal grill, that savory smell started rising up and made us want to dig in right away, haha. ![Original salt-grilled dakgalbi browning nicely on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-13-tpopw-966.webp) ## Salt-grilled vs. marinated dakgalbi: how different do they taste? We tried the salt-grilled version first at Anbanji Dakgalbi, and since the seasoning wasn't heavy, it had a clean, mild flavor. As it grilled over charcoal, the surface browned nicely and picked up a subtle smoky note, and it was good even eaten plain. ![A fully cooked piece of salt-grilled dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-14-a85cp-966.webp) After the salt-grilled version, we moved on to grilling the house-marinated dakgalbi. ![House-marinated dakgalbi placed on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-15-12m3x-966.webp) ![Marinated dakgalbi cooking as the sauce sizzles](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-16-1hsxu-966.webp) Since it was already seasoned, the flavor felt distinctly different from the salt-grilled version. As the sauce cooked slightly on the charcoal, it gave off a really appetizing smell. ![Close-up of grilled marinated dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-17-1bpfg-966.webp) ### Dipping the chicken in cheese fondue And we couldn't skip the cheese fondue we also ordered. ![Cheese fondue served alongside the dakgalbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-18-b8qfk-966.webp) Dipping the nicely grilled dakgalbi into the cheese added a savory richness that gave it a whole different feel. ![A piece of dakgalbi dipped in cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-19-q2n96-966.webp) The kids seemed to enjoy the fun of dipping into cheese too, and they ate it up well. ![Enjoying cheese fondue dakgalbi with the kids](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-20-4jb8a-966.webp) ### Spicy buckwheat mak guksu noodles on the side It felt like something was missing if we only ate dakgalbi, so we also ordered spicy buckwheat noodles. ![A bowl of spicy buckwheat noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-21-mx0yj-966.webp) Eating the tangy noodles alongside the dakgalbi gave our mouths a nice, refreshing reset. ![Spicy buckwheat noodles tossed and ready to eat](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-22-u2p1k-966.webp) The noodles, tossed well, went great alongside the dakgalbi, and they were also good eaten on their own in between bites. ## Uncooked takeout to grill at your Gapyeong accommodation Anbanji Dakgalbi also offers uncooked takeout. For takeout, they increase the portion so you get 3 servings for the price of 2. If you're staying at a pension or other accommodation in Gapyeong, it seems like a good option to order takeout and grill it there yourselves. We ate at the restaurant this time, but when traveling with kids, there are days you just want an easy meal back at your accommodation. Takeout would be great for those days! ## Is Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi worth it with kids on a Gapyeong trip? ![A full dakgalbi table spread shared by a family of four](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-23-gf7gf-966.webp) Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi was a dakgalbi meal we thoroughly enjoyed with the kids on this Gapyeong trip. Trying the salt-grilled and marinated versions side by side let us compare the flavors, and with the cheese fondue and buckwheat noodles added in, it was a hearty spread for a family of four. ![Table at Anbanji Dakgalbi after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family-24-ixegr-966.webp) If you're looking for dakgalbi near Nami Island, Anbanji Dakgalbi is worth remembering as one of the best Nami Island dakgalbi restaurants we visited. I hope this helps anyone traveling around Gapyeong with kids and looking for a good dakgalbi restaurant the whole family can enjoy :) ## Where it is - Namiseom Anbanji Dakgalbi (남이섬 안반지 닭갈비) - 1061 Bukhangang-byeonro, Gapyeong-eup, Gapyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 가평군 가평읍 북한강변로 1061 남이섬 안반지 닭갈비 - 37.8070013, 127.5247096 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%82%A8%EC%9D%B4%EC%84%AC%20%EC%95%88%EB%B0%98%EC%A7%80%20%EB%8B%AD%EA%B0%88%EB%B9%84/@37.8070013,127.5247096,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@osan-supper-stall/namisum-anbanji-dakgalbi-gapyeong-family/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
