I visited Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch, which looked great for family meals or work dinners thanks to its calm, upscale vibe and private rooms. ![Exterior of Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-01-151ou-966.webp) It wasn't a loud, rowdy kind of place, so it also seemed like a nice date spot around Seokchon Lake in Jamsil haha. Here's my review! ## Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch: location, hours, parking and corkage 🍽️Location🍽️ 9-13 Ogeum-ro 15-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul You can walk here from Jamsil Station! It's located in the Bangi food alley area. 🍽️Hours🍽️ Daily 12:00 – 24:00 Weekday break time 15:00 – 17:00 No break time on weekends 🍽️Reservations🍽️ Naver Reservations Catch Table 🍽️Parking🍽️ 4 spots available in front Use nearby public parking lots when full 🍽️Corkage🍽️ Available One bottle of wine or whiskey free ₩10,000 per bottle after that ![Information image for Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-02-1ajm1-966.webp) 🍽️Rooms🍽️ The basement floor turned out to be all private rooms! It looked great for work dinners around Seokchon Lake, entertaining guests, or family meals. There seems to be a room fee. ## What's on the menu at Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch, from grilled meat to sashimi Yukmong uniquely sells both grilled meat and raw fish! ![Menu board showing both meat and raw fish at Yukmong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-03-hon02-966.webp) They have pork, beef, and aged sashimi too, so it seemed even better for visiting with a group. ![Menu board listing pork, beef, and aged sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-04-1kzz4-966.webp) What gave me confidence in the freshness of the meat was that they also sell raw dishes like beef tartare (yukhoe) and raw beef sashimi (yuk-sashimi). Those are dishes you can only serve if the meat is truly fresh, so I felt like I could trust it. ![Menu board with raw beef dishes like yukhoe and yuk-sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-05-c77ig-966.webp) The drinks menu ranges from regular soju and beer to draft beer, premium soju, and red wine, so there are plenty of options. ![Drinks menu listing soju, beer, and wine](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-06-2eijc-966.webp) ## What two people ordered: 550g Korean pork sampler and Seolhwa 1% marbled short rib There were two of us, and we ordered the Korean pork sampler, Seolhwa 1% marbled beef short rib, draft beer, and mul-naengmyeon (cold noodle soup) — that was our full order. ![Table setup of the Korean pork sampler ordered for two](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-07-1lb3k-966.webp) The Korean pork sampler includes pork neck, belly, and skirt meat, totaling 550g. It also comes with doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew). ![550g Korean pork sampler with neck, belly, and skirt meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-08-p9bos-966.webp) Rice is extra haha. I wanted to try the beef too, but the sampler set was already quite a lot, so we added a single serving of the marbled beef rib on top. Everything came out beautifully arranged when ordered, and the staff grilled it for us directly. ![Meat and side dishes set on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-09-aw5vh-966.webp) ### Tableside grilling service from first cut to last They don't just put the meat on the grill — they grill it all the way through for you. It's nice to enjoy meat cooked at its best by someone who really knows what they're doing. ![Staff providing full grilling service](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-10-4tomn-1200.webp) It let us focus more on conversation, and most of all, we could eat comfortably. The side dishes were also set out neatly, with a clean Korean-style presentation. ![Side dishes neatly arranged in Korean style](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-11-1fbmc-m-966.webp) ### Best cuts ranked: pork neck, then skirt meat, then belly Among the pork sampler cuts, Monggeul Mongsul's preference went neck > skirt meat > belly. It's not that the belly tasted worse — it's just the most familiar flavor, so it ranked a little lower. ![Three cuts of Korean pork cooking on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-12-jc183-966.webp) The pork neck was really tender and juicy, which I loved. The skirt meat came out as a whole cut, thick and delicious. ![Thickly grilled whole skirt meat cut](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-13-19qeq-966.webp) The beef gets grilled first, and well… beef is beef. It was so tender it disappeared in seconds haha. ![Grilled Seolhwa 1% marbled beef short rib](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-14-11knz-966.webp) For dessert we had mul-naengmyeon, which is based on a meat broth, so it paired well as a finish. ## Free corkage in Jamsil, a rarity, with wine glasses set out It's hard to find a corkage-free spot in Seoul, especially in Songpa, Jamsil. Sure, only the first bottle is free, but ₩10,000 per bottle after that still felt reasonable to me. ![Bottle of red wine brought for corkage](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-15-d7tl8-966.webp) We brought a light red wine, and after seeing it, they even set up wine glasses for us. Since whiskey is also allowed for corkage, I'd guess they'd set up whiskey glasses for that too! ![Wine glasses set up at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-16-1lsd8-966.webp) If you want to use corkage, it's probably a good idea to ask in advance. ## Quiet, polished interior and basement rooms for up to 24 What satisfied me most was the calm interior atmosphere. ![Calm dining hall inside Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-17-mf60l-966.webp) The moment you walk in, even though it's a BBQ restaurant, it has a quiet, upscale feel. ![Upscale interior design of the BBQ restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-18-1te2g-966.webp) The tables and floor were spotless, with nothing slippery. That's probably thanks to the smoke extraction system positioned close to the grill. ![Clean table with a smoke extraction system](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-19-g2299-966.webp) Overall, you can eat in a calm atmosphere, so it seemed great for dining with parents, anniversary dates, or work dinners. ![Seating arrangement suited for group dinners and family meals](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-20-8v9kw-966.webp) ![Private room space on the basement floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-21-1ya8z-966.webp) On top of that, the basement floor has private rooms, which looked great for meeting the in-laws or entertaining guests. The rooms can reportedly seat up to about 24 people. I'd like to come back for an anniversary. The owner and staff were all kind, and we could eat quietly, so I left wanting to visit again. ![Table after finishing the meal at Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-22-kry3f-966.webp) ## Who should book Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch - Anyone looking for a work dinner spot near Seokchon Lake - Anyone looking for a quiet Korean BBQ place in Bangi-dong, Jamsil - Anyone looking for a corkage-free restaurant in the Bangi food alley - Anyone looking for a quiet date meal near Seokchon Lake - Anyone looking for a Korean BBQ spot for meeting the in-laws in Bangi ![View near the entrance of Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner-23-1nmke-966.webp) That's it for this review — once again, the two of us ate 700 grams of meat haha, this was Monggeul Mongsul! ## Where it is - Yukmong Bangi Direct Branch (육몽 방이직영점) - 9-13 Ogeum-ro 15-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea (basement, 1st and 2nd floors) - 서울특별시 송파구 오금로15길 9-13 지하1층,지상1~2층 - 37.5131724, 127.1090504 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9C%A1%EB%AA%BD%20%EB%B0%A9%EC%9D%B4%EC%A7%81%EC%98%81%EC%A0%90/@37.5131724,127.1090504,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seongsu-side-plate/yukmong-bangi-corkage-wine-beef-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
