Paju lamb skewer spot with floor-to-ceiling window seats: Sannaemaeul

When you want lamb skewers AND Chinese food, picking just one menu feels like such a waste, right? So I found a restaurant with a lineup that lets you enjoy both skewers and full meal dishes together — perfect for dinner and drinks in one sitting. Here's my review haha><

This is Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao (산내마을양꼬치앤칭따오), located in Sannaemaeul. Everything on the menu looked delicious, so it took me forever to choose ㅜ.ㅜ ❤️

Where is Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao, and what are its hours?

Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao is located at 205, 2F World Tower 3, 573 Chaekhyanggi-ro, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do. Hours run from 15:30 to 01:00 the next day, closed Mondays, and building parking is supported.

It's a restaurant located in the commercial complex in front of the Homeplus in Sannaemaeul! It's on the 2nd floor of World Tower 3. You see it right as you step off the elevator.

Parking at World Tower 3: plenty of spaces

The parking garage has several spacious floors, so there were plenty of open spots. No need to worry about parking here!

Inside Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao and its floor-to-ceiling window seats

The interior of Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao has lots of seating with a reasonable amount of space between tables. With 4 AC units and well-managed ventilation, there was none of that stuffiness even though it's a BBQ restaurant, and I sat at a window seat with a floor-to-ceiling window.

As soon as we walked in, it was nearly packed with customers... This place is famous for having lots of regulars even within Sannaemaeul ><

Lots of seats, and reasonable spacing between them too. With 4 AC units and really well-managed ventilation, it was comfortable without that typical BBQ restaurant stuffiness haha

Sitting at a seat with a great view outside really boosted my mood >< Being a full window wall, there's no stuffiness and it feels wonderfully open

If you ask the owner to join the review event, they'll give you something free ❤️

What's on the menu and what comes in each set?

You can order at Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao via the wall menu board or the tableside kiosk. Set menus that come with guobaorou (sweet and sour pork), jisamseon, wosheng rousi, and yuling meat alongside lamb skewers looked like great value.

The menu is up on the wall too, and you can also order through the kiosk at your table!

Why the set menus are the best value here

The set menus looked like really great value. Sets that come with guobaorou, jisamseon, wosheng rousi, yuling meat, and more, all alongside lamb skewers!

Ordering the guobaorou set for 50,000 won

We ordered the guobaorou set for ₩50,000 (lamb skewers + lamb rib meat + guobaorou) and a Coke for ₩2,000.

The guobaorou immediately caught my eye, so I went with the guobaorou set haha

The side dishes that come with the set

The basic side dishes provided were pickled radish, peanuts, radish salad, and onion salad

The self-serve bar you can help yourself to

There's also a self-serve bar where you can comfortably grab more!

How do the lamb skewers and lamb rib meat taste?

The lamb skewers and lamb rib meat skewers at Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao were plump and meaty. Once the meat is loaded on, a machine rotates it while grilling, giving it that charcoal-grilled aroma.

Can you see how plump the meat on the skewers is...❤️ You load up lots of meat and just wait while the machine diligently grills it haha

Sometimes other lamb skewer places have skimpy, thin meat, but here the meat is seriously substantial.... Lamb skewers getting that charcoal-grilled aroma haha

Guobaorou (sweet-and-sour fried pork)

Eating it fresh out of the fryer was shockingly delicious °°° The batter thickness was just right, sweet and tangy.. familiar flavors are the scariest

While eating the lamb skewers, this tangy sweetness in between really refreshes you — guobaorou is genuinely a perfect match with lamb skewers!!!

Chewy on the outside, moist on the inside... plus that distinctive lamb savoriness and charcoal aroma ㅜㅜ

You know how once they're fully cooked, they set them up on top like this to eat, right??

A free plate of stir-fried bean sprouts from the owner ❤️

The kind-hearted owner even gave us a free stir-fried bean sprout dish ㅠㅠ Delicious and crunchy even piled on top of the lamb skewers

Final verdict on Sannaemaeul Yang Kkochi & Qingdao

Located right in the central commercial area of Sannaemaeul, accessibility is great too~ From parking to the interior seating, it was a comfortable place to eat.

Especially the combo of savory lamb skewers, tender lamb rib meat skewers, and crispy guobaorou was such a great meal. With a wide variety of Chinese dishes too, it seemed like a great spot to visit with a group and share!

If you're looking for a place in Unjeong's Sannaemaeul to have lamb skewers with a beer for dinner, I highly recommend Yang Kkochi & Qingdao ❤️
