When you do a lot of blog sponsorships, sometimes you run into places and think, why does this place even need promotion? That's exactly this spot.. Honestly Negi Silbi is already a waiting-list nightmare of a restaurant that doesn't need any promotion!!!! I got to do the sponsorship and go restaurant-hunting at the same time, haha. Bottom line up front: I'm 100% coming back!!!!! ![Exterior of Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-01-1n2li-900.webp) ![Entrance of Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-02-jk1lo-m-900.webp) ## What is on the menu at Negi Silbi Sinsa? Here's the menu at Negi Silbi Sinsa. ![Menu board at Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-03-mndek-900.webp) ![Vertical photo of the Negi Silbi Sinsa menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-04-dmd6w-900.webp) ![Menu information at Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-05-1a8o9-900.webp) They said the menu changes often depending on seasonal ingredients! For seafood lovers like me, this Sinsa Station spot is basically heaven. ![Basic table setting at Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-06-s2sh7-900.webp) ![Pre-meal radish and shio-kombu salad at Negi Silbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-07-114z2-900.webp) ![Wet wipes and basic table setup at Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-08-171md-900.webp) ### Table setting and the radish and shio-kombu salad This is the basic table setting at Negi Silbi Sinsa. Even the wet wipes felt fancy, and the radish and shio-kombu salad they gave us before the meal was really special and delicious!! Even the pre-meal salad shows Negi Silbi's signature style — the best pocha in Sinsa. ![Soju and ginger ale ordered at Negi Silbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-09-14wbt-900.webp) We ordered soju and ginger ale, haha. Pubs that actually have ginger ale are really rare, so this was amazing ㅠㅠ I really love ginger ale. It was my first time mixing soju with ginger ale and it was so good. We figured we had to order Negi Silbi's signature menu?? So we went for the sashimi!!! ## How does the Jinju-style sea bream makhoe (52,000 won) taste? This is Negi Silbi's Jinju-style chalttomi makhoe medium (₩52,000)! They said the medium size comes with 200g of sashimi! ![Medium-size Jinju-style chalttomi makhoe at Negi Silbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-10-1ag7u-1200.webp) ![Vertical photo of the chalttomi makhoe table spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-11-112ld-900.webp) ![Makjang dipping sauce served with the sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-12-1hmu5-900.webp) I really love this makjang (spicy dipping sauce), you know? And it totally lived up to expectations ㅠㅠ Seriously so good............... ![Sea bream sashimi dipped in makjang sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-13-14c75-900.webp) And for anyone thinking sashimi is pretty much the same everywhere~ nope ㅠㅠ Negi Silbi is different.. I'm not exaggerating, the sashimi itself was so rich and chewy and just soooooo delicious.............. If you go to Negi Silbi, you have to order the sashimi ㅠㅠ ![Perilla leaf wrap with sea bream sashimi and makjang](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-14-n200x-900.webp) Wrap it in a perilla leaf with makjang, chili, garlic, and sea bream sashimi and you'll pass out instantly. ![Holding up the perilla leaf wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-15-4lef9-900.webp) ## Live octopus and beef brisket stone grill (65,000 won), cooked at your table And then the live octopus and beef stone grill we ordered (₩65,000). Negi Silbi also has plenty of options for people who can't eat raw fish, which I loved!! If someone in your group can't eat sashimi, it's kind of awkward picking a restaurant, right? But here they have a good balance of cooked and raw menus, so it's great!! I was so excited I immediately started messaging my friend group chat about doing our next meetup here, haha. They said the live octopus and beef stone grill at Negi Silbi, a top Sinsa Station pocha, tends to splatter the sauce a lot, so they sometimes cook it in the kitchen and bring it out. We wanted to see this 'performance' (?) so we asked them to cook it at our table! ![Live octopus and beef stone grill being cooked at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-16-75iaq-900.webp) ![Live octopus and beef cooking on the stone plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-17-e93j8-900.webp) ![Scene of the live octopus and beef stone grill being cooked](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-18-k589t-900.webp) A dish with one whole live octopus in it!! ![One whole live octopus in the dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-19-gtevo-900.webp) ![Lightly cooked live octopus stone grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-20-lq26w-900.webp) They intentionally didn't cook the octopus all the way through, and it was seriously so tender it was insane ㅠㅠ If you're looking for octopus stir-fry near Sinsa Station, just go to Negi Silbi.. Also the stone plate holds so much heat that even after the flame went out, it stayed warm for a long time! Beef can get greasy when it cools down because of all the fat, but thanks to the stone plate we could eat it warm the whole way through, which I loved. ![Beef staying warm on the stone plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-21-1iqwp-900.webp) Ah it was so good. ![Sea bream sashimi wrapped in seaweed and sea greens](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-22-1428s-900.webp) Then we went back for more sea bream sashimi too, haha. Wrapped in seaweed and sea greens, it's also seriously mind-blowing ㅠㅠ ![Full table spread at Negi Silbi Sinsa](https://img.superchart.com/images/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill/negi-silbi-sinsa-octopus-stone-grill-23-x4bf1-m-900.webp) ## How do you avoid the wait at Negi Silbi Sinsa?
