Set 3 came with gyukatsu, steki-don, and two drinks, and the meat stayed tender and juicy even when cooked longer. Verdict: a filling, fun date meal near Seoul Station. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:30 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Last order**: 14:00, 20:30 - **Parking**: Paid parking available on B2 of the building - **Ordered**: Set 3: gyukatsu + steki-don + 2 drinks *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* I had something to do around Seoul Station this time, and while looking for lunch, I came across Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch, which looked like a nice stop for a Seoul Station date too, haha. We ordered gyukatsu and steki-don, and the meat was tender rather than tough, with properly juicy flavor too, so we had such a delicious meal! It was fun grilling it ourselves as well ㄱ_ㄱ ![Signature gyukatsu and steki-don dishes at Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-01-1d0o4-1200.webp) ## Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch near Seoul Station Exit 10 Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch, a great Seoul Station date restaurant, was located very close to Seoul Station Exit 10! ![Exterior of Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch near Seoul Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-02-umx2d-900.webp) ![Exterior of Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch in the basement of LG Seoul Station Building](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-03-s2crf-764.webp) It is on B1 of the LG Seoul Station Building, and paid parking is available on B2, so it looked convenient whether taking public transportation or driving :) ![Inside the building where Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch is located](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-04-1b0cc-900.webp) ![Directions around Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-05-161by-900.webp) Restaurants in office buildings are often closed on Sundays, but Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch was open on Sundays too! We visited around 1:30 p.m. on a Sunday, and there were quite a few customers inside, haha. Its Japanese-style atmosphere came through from the exterior, so I was excited before even going in ㅎㅅㅎ ## What is the interior like? ![Interior of Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch with customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-06-mipic-900.webp) There were quite a few customers inside, so I could not take detailed photosㅠ It was neat and nice, haha. ![Meat model inside Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-07-9gd9r-900.webp) There was a meat model, and it really caught my eye~ ## Gyukatsu and steki-don set menu ![Menu at Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-08-b4f5g-900.webp) ![Gyukatsu and steki-don menu information](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-09-koty3-900.webp) Here is the menu at Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch. Along with the main dishes—gyukatsu (beef cutlet, sirloin), steki (sirloin steak), hamburger omurice, steki-don (steak rice bowl), teppan chopped steak, Japanese curry, karaage (Japanese fried chicken) and fried shrimp, Napolitan yakisoba, cold soba and fried shrimp—there were drinks, alcohol, and set menus too! There was quite a variety, so there were lots of choices. It looked good not only for a Seoul Station date but also for coming with children, haha. We ordered Set 3. Set 3 included gyukatsu, steki-don, and two drinks. ## Gyukatsu grilled on the tabletop grill ![Gyukatsu meal served with rice and soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-10-1p5sj-900.webp) First, the gyukatsu arrived! It came as a full meal with rice and soup, and the portions were generous overall ㅠㅠ The gyukatsu portion in particular was more plentiful than I expected, so at first glance I thought we would have a really filling meal, haha. The outside was crisply fried while the inside still had its red color, so you can grill it little by little on the tabletop grill to your liking! ![Steki meat in the steki-don](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-11-oigdq-900.webp) The steki in the steki-don also looked delicious, with lots of meat :) First, we grilled the butter on the tabletop grill! ![Butter and gyukatsu cooking on a tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-12-59yzm-702.webp) ![Gyukatsu grilled on a tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-13-1g2qm-900.webp) Then we grilled the gyukatsu little by little, haha. It was nice to grill only as much as we wanted to eat at a time. I also captured it sizzling away deliciously on video~ ![Gyukatsu grilling on the tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-14-74u4v-558.webp) ![Tabletop grill cooking gyukatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-15-1rkl7-693.webp) The guide for enjoying gyukatsu said to grill it for 7–8 seconds for the best taste, but we cooked ours a little longer, lol. ![Gyukatsu cooked for longer on the tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-16-1wdb4-774.webp) ![Gyukatsu meat cooked on the tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-17-yvbgm-792.webp) Even cooked for longer, the meat was not tough but tender, and the juices burst all over my mouth ㅠㅠㅠ So freaking good..♡ ![Grilled gyukatsu with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-18-1thc9-900.webp) ![Enjoying a gyukatsu meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-19-nqmer-900.webp) ## Steki-don grilled and placed over rice And the menu item I personally found fascinating at Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch was the steki-don! Usually, when I think of steki-don, I think of finished meat served over rice, but here you grill the steki yourself too. We cooked the meat to our preferred doneness, placed it over rice, and enjoyed it properly, haha. ![Steki-don grilled by hand and placed over rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-20-1exqd-900.webp) ![Steki-don served with egg and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu-21-1jw5c-899.webp) Like the gyukatsu, the meat was soft and tender, and the more I chewed, the more nutty meat juices I could taste ㅠㅠ Together with the soft egg and rice, it became even richer and moister—a totally great combination...! You can eat a generous amount of rice and meat together, so I think it would suit anyone who especially loves a filling meal ㅎㅅㅎ If you are looking for a tender meat dish near Seoul Station, or want to enjoy a delicious date meal, I recommend Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch! ## Where it is - Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch (이치규 서울역점) - B116, B1, 98 Huam-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울특별시 중구 후암로 98 지하1층 B116호) - 서울특별시 중구 후암로 98 지하1층 B116호 - 37.5538652, 126.9746174 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9D%B4%EC%B9%98%EA%B7%9C%20%EC%84%9C%EC%9A%B8%EC%97%AD%EC%A0%90/@37.5538652,126.9746174,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-eating-hours/seoul-station-date-grilled-gyukatsu/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
