Where is Yuk Lab Yeouido?

Yuk Lab Yeouido is on the 2nd floor of the Yeouido General Shopping Center, which you'll see right away when you come out of Exit 5 of Yeouido Station. I recommend it as a Yeouido Station restaurant with great beef and private rooms.

Take the elevator or stairs up to the 2nd floor of the Yeouido General Shopping Center and head for the entrance above :)

Private room atmosphere and basic table setup

This is what the inside of Yuk Lab Yeouido looks like! Every seat is a private room, so it's great for business meetings or company dinners :)

I booked ahead, and the table was already set for us 🙌🏻

Every one of the side dishes was good 😋

There's a nice variety of dipping sauces for the meat, set out for each person,

and each sauce even comes with its own spoon, so you can portion it out hygienically for your group. Loved that 👍🏻

How do you order at Yuk Lab Yeouido?

You can order à la carte, and the set menus are reasonably put together too. We went with the set for 3 🙌🏻

By the way, if you join the Naver review event, you can get a discount when you pay 💸

What's in the ₩89,000 set for 3?

After a short wait, the set for 3 (₩89,000) arrived 🥩 The meat looks insane~~

Ordering a set also includes grilling cheese and doenjang stew (soybean paste stew) haha

The set for 3 comes with 120g of jingalbisal (marinated-style beef rib finger meat),

120g of sirloin,

120g of tosisal (beef skirt),

and 230g of lamb ribs, and you grill them in the order I just listed 🥩 They also said you can swap the lamb ribs for tosisal when ordering the set :)

Grilling order: from jingalbisal to sirloin and tosisal

As the staff told us, we grilled the jingalbisal first, sizzle sizzle...

The color on this meat is crazy, right? ㅠㅠ A Yeouido Station restaurant with great beef, no doubt..👍🏻

The first bite is just dipped in salt, and then I put some sauce on my small plate and ate it with the meat, nom 😋

Next up, the sirloin, sizzle sizzle..

The prices aren't super high, but the meat quality is really good, so this is a Yeouido Station beef spot where you can eat happily 👍🏻

And the tosisal, grilled up nicely 🤤

One tip: the grilling cheese in the set doesn't go straight onto the grill. Put it on top of the vegetables like this 🧀

Is the lamb ribs at Yuk Lab Yeouido halal-certified?

And finally, the lamb ribs! 🍗 They say the lamb at Yuk Lab Yeouido uses only young lambs that went through an ethical slaughter process and received 'halal certification'.

How was the ₩5,900 bibim naengmyeon to finish?

There's no way I'm skipping naengmyeon (cold noodles) for dessert... so I ordered the bibim naengmyeon (spicy mixed cold noodles, ₩5,900) too :p

But seriously, why is the bibim naengmyeon so good..? It had a strong nutty flavor, from sesame oil or perilla oil, I'm not sure which, and it made for a really delicious finish 👍🏻

Yuk Lab Yeouido is a Yeouido Station beef spot where every seat is a private room, so you can have a cozy meal.
