We had the A Set for two, with two kaisendon bowls, cheese fries, and a canned drink, and even the mackerel and ankimo were delicious. Verdict: Makise Hapjeong is a satisfying, good-value lunch spot in Hapjeong. ## Good to know - **Kaisendon**: ₩20,000 - **A Set for two**: 2 kaisendon bowls, 2 cheese fries, 1 canned drink - **Distance**: 6-minute walk from Exit 8 of Hapjeong Station (Lines 2 and 6) - **Parking**: No dedicated parking; use a nearby paid parking lot *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* I heard there was a great kaisendon (seafood rice bowl) spot in Hapjeong near Hongdae, so I went! I have no idea why I love kaisendon so much these days, haha. Let me share Makise Hapjeong, which felt like such good value! ![Signature kaisendon at Makise Hapjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-01-1gz5x-1200.webp) ## What are the exterior and interior of Makise Hapjeong like? ### Exterior ![Compact exterior of Makise Hapjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-02-9u8xt-900.webp) I expected the exterior to be bigger, but it was more compact than I thought~ ### Interior ![Interior of Makise Hapjeong with figurines](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-03-63eoc-900.webp) Despite looking compact, the tables were laid out well inside, so there were more seats than I expected! There were so many figurines—I think the owner especially likes One Piece~! ## A Set for two and à la carte menu ### Menu ![Makise Hapjeong menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-04-mmqpj-900.webp) ![Makise Hapjeong set menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-05-1lbqr-900.webp) You can order set meals too, so we got the set for two~! A Set comes with two kaisendon bowls, two cheese fries, and one canned drink. ![A Set for two details](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-06-1cunc-900.webp) ![A Set for two menu photo](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-07-1atsi-900.webp) ![Makise Hapjeong à la carte menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-08-1qwok-900.webp) ![Hapjeong kaisendon lunch with non-fishy mackerel at Makise Hapjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-09-13nps-900.webp) ![Sushi menu with bong sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-10-zfnk5-900.webp) Besides the sets, you can also order à la carte! They have kaisendon, sakedon (salmon rice bowl), ebi sakedon (shrimp and salmon rice bowl), aburi sakedon (seared salmon rice bowl), and ebi katsudon (shrimp cutlet rice bowl)! There is also a sushi menu, including bong sushi~! ![Receipt review fried-cheese promotion](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-11-1hv59-900.webp) Makise Hapjeong gives you complimentary fried mozzarella cheese for writing a Naver receipt review, so I joined in too! Haha. ## Basic sides and how to eat kaisendon ### Basic setting ![Basic kaisendon side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-12-qa39f-900.webp) ![Danmuji and gungchae side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-13-165nm-900.webp) There were danmuji (pickled yellow radish), gungchae (pickled stem lettuce), and a mixed pickled-radish dish made with wood ear mushrooms (?)—the texture and flavor were both good! ![Kaisendon basic side-dish selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-14-14qit-900.webp) ![Instructions for enjoying kaisendon](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-15-1hevd-780.webp) There are also instructions on how to enjoy kaisendon, so it might be nice to follow them~ ## ₩20,000 kaisendon sashimi and cheese fries ### What we ordered ![The kaisendon meal we ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-16-149ih-900.webp) ![합정 카이센동 고등어도 안 비린 점심, 마키세 합정](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-17-1x6az-900.webp) The kaisendon arrived! Isn't it amazing that this looks like this for ₩20,000?! Such incredible value 👍 It is a filling meal that feels completely worth it even at lunchtime! It came with soup and roasted seaweed too! They say it tastes even better wrapped in seaweed~ ![Kaisendon served with roasted seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-18-1k3ds-900.webp) ![Kaisendon topped with sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-19-1wfwp-900.webp) ![Kaisendon wrapped in seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-20-it9a1-900.webp) ![Kaisendon sashimi selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-21-vwqp7-900.webp) None of the sashimi had any fishiness at all! Everything was in such great condition! I was surprised that even the mackerel, which can be fishy, was not fishy 😲👏 And my beloved ankimo (monkfish liver) was included too, so I put it on seaweed and enjoyed it so much 🤤 ![Kaisendon with ankimo](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-22-11f6f-900.webp) ![Ankimo kaisendon on seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-23-1ab9v-900.webp) These are the two pieces of cheese fries included in the set! The cheese pieces were big~! I loved how stretchy and crisp they were. Honey came with them too, and the combination was so good! ![Cheese fries served with honey](https://img.superchart.com/images/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise-24-x6ncr-900.webp) This is the fried mozzarella cheese I received for writing a Naver receipt review, haha. Eat it while it is warm~ ## Getting there from Hapjeong Station and parking We cleared every last grain of rice~! There are so many kaisendon bowls in the ₩30,000 range these days, but Makise Hapjeong was a great Hapjeong kaisendon spot at an affordable price~ If you are craving Hongdae kaisendon, Hapjeong kaisendon, or Hapjeong bong sushi, I recommend Makise at Hapjeong Station! For kaisendon of this quality at this price, you need to run to Makise 🩷 I was so satisfied that I will go to Makise whenever I am in Hapjeong, haha. It is a 6-minute walk from Exit 8 of Hapjeong Station on Lines 2 and 6! There is no dedicated parking, so please use a nearby paid parking lot :) ## Where it is - Makise Hapjeong (마키세 합정) (마키세 합정) - B01, Basement, 44 Poeun-ro 2na-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울특별시 마포구 포은로2나길 44 지층 b01호) - 서울특별시 마포구 포은로2나길 44 지층 b01호 - 37.550496, 126.909741 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%88%ED%82%A4%EC%84%B8%20%ED%95%A9%EC%A0%95/@37.550496,126.909741,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@regular-meal-detours/hapjeong-kaisendon-fresh-lunch-makise/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
