The writer went solo and ordered Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), and Harbin beer, finding the spicy broth made the beer taste even better and the portion disappeared without leftovers. A perfect spot for a spicy Chinese meal with a drink on the side. ## Good to know - **Ordered**: Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), Harbin beer - **Restaurant size**: Entire 1st and 2nd floors - **Address**: 19 Teheran-ro 1-gil, 1st-2nd floor, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![Visit photo of Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon, a Chinese restaurant near Gangnam Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-01-1r6kp-900.webp) ![Exotic Chinese atmosphere at Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-02-jz43q-900.webp) It was one of those days when I was really craving that flashy, exotic Chinese vibe again! ![View of the Chinese restaurant on a day craving spicy broth and dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-03-1v282-900.webp) I wanted a spicy, rich broth, hot dumplings packed with filling, and a cold beer to go with it all — so after some thinking about where to go, I ended up at Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon, a Chinese restaurant in Gangnam, haha. ![Exterior of Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon spanning the 1st and 2nd floors](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-04-12lrk-900.webp) ## A Gangnam Station Chinese restaurant that takes over the whole 1st and 2nd floors As soon as I arrived and looked at the exterior, I noticed the whole first and second floors were being used, so it was much bigger than I expected! Walking inside, the interior gave off such an exotic vibe that I almost felt like I'd been transported to actual China. ![Interior decorated with red lighting and decorative pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-05-opcyd-900.webp) The red lighting, the flashy decor pieces, and the neatly arranged tables all made for a really interesting and pretty atmosphere, haha. ![Neatly arranged tables inside the Chinese restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-06-1fxlr-m-900.webp) On one side of the first floor, I could even catch a glimpse of the staff hand-making dim sum, which was fun to watch. ![Staff hand-making dim sum on one side of the first floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-07-5ne9d-900.webp) On top of that, hearing the owner and staff freely chatting in Mandarin and Taiwanese with each other, ![A corner of the restaurant with an authentic Chinese feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-08-g289v-900.webp) it really felt like I was traveling abroad, and gave me an even stronger impression that this was a serious,专业 beef knife-cut noodle spot! ![Interior decor pieces at Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-09-1s0c1-900.webp) ![View of the restaurant hall from the seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-10-l3vnc-900.webp) ![Table setting and restaurant atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-11-1k56o-900.webp) ## Why I ordered beef knife-cut noodles, xiaolongbao, and beer all by myself Once I sat down and looked at the menu, there was so much good stuff that I genuinely couldn't decide what to eat, haha. ![Menu at Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-12-56lvq-900.webp) I couldn't skip the dim sum, I definitely had to have the beef noodles, and I was craving a cold beer too, so ![Menu page listing dim sum and beef noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-13-1mp4s-900.webp) in the end I went all out and ordered the Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), and Harbin beer, all together! ![A full spread of Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles, xiaolongbao, and Harbin beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-14-1x0oi-900.webp) It felt like a bit much for one person, but calories don't count if it's delicious, right? Haha. ![A solo table setting of the ordered Chinese dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-15-1d1an-900.webp) As I kept eating, it was so good that the whole solo portion went in easily! I finished every last bit, haha. ## How spicy is the Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles, really? The Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles came out first, and the visuals alone were incredible. ![Red broth of the Sichuan-style beef knife-cut noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-16-1dkpy-900.webp) I normally love a spicy, punchy broth, and the moment I took my first spoonful, that dizzyingly spicy yet deep, rich broth flavor wrapped around my tongue — it was totally my type! ![A spoonful of the spicy beef knife-cut noodle broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-17-15up2-900.webp) Since the noodles were knife-cut (dosakmyeon), they had a chewy texture that soaked up the broth really well, making every bite fun to chew. The generous chunks of beef melted softly in my mouth too — I was in awe while eating, haha. ![Chewy knife-cut noodles with large chunks of beef](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-18-1dzfo-900.webp) ### Pairing it with Harbin beer And thanks to that spicy, rich broth, the Harbin beer I ordered alongside tasted several times better, haha. ![Harbin beer enjoyed alongside the beef knife-cut noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-19-1mhj1-900.webp) Taking a cool sip of Harbin right after a spoonful of the spicy beef noodle broth — that combo was absolutely amazing! I thought it would be the perfect combo for a satisfying lunch near Gangnam Station or a happy drink after work. ![Beer and Chinese food spread enjoyed as a drink pairing](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-20-5766u-900.webp) ## How was the xiaolongbao broth inside? The xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) that came out next were steaming from the steamer basket, and just the sight of them made my mouth water. ![Steaming xiaolongbao fresh from the steamer basket](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-21-1pshf-900.webp) I dipped one lightly in soy sauce, placed it on a spoon, tore a small hole in the wrapper to taste the broth first, and then popped the whole thing in my mouth! ![A xiaolongbao dipped in soy sauce and placed on a spoon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-22-1o7yl-900.webp) The moment I bit in — pop! — warm, savory broth burst out all over my mouth, and it was genuinely amazing, ugh. ![Cross-section of a xiaolongbao with broth bursting out](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-23-hklvn-900.webp) The dumpling wrapper was chewy and the filling was packed full of meaty flavor — I immediately understood why customers keep coming in! Taking a bite of the spicy Sichuan beef knife-cut noodles, then dipping the juicy dumpling in sauce, and finishing it off with a cold Harbin beer — all my stress just melted away, haha. Harbin beer really couldn't pair better with such excellent food. Enjoying properly made beef noodles, juicy dumplings, and cold beer in that exotic, authentic Chinese vibe made for such a satisfying time. ![Vertical shot of the full Chinese meal spread at Namsogwan U Yuk Dosakmyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights/gangnam-sichuan-beef-noodle-soup-nights-24-1queg-1200.webp) ## Who would I recommend this to If you want to enjoy delicious food in a vividly Chinese atmosphere, this place is perfect for you!
