Visiting for a second round of the night, the writer ordered Chinese chili nurungji (scorched rice) eggplant fritters, spicy red egg soup, the traditional liquor Nimome and Bingtanbok, and found the tables at Sisibibi spaced far enough apart to talk easily even with a large party nearby. Sisibibi suits a quiet date or a small gathering near Sadang Station. ## Good to know - **Location**: 2nd floor, 163 Sadang-ro 30-gil, Dongjak-gu, Seoul (117m from Exit 8, Sadang Station, Line 2) - **Parking**: No parking in the building; use Sadang 1 Public Parking Lot (1 hour of parking support available) - **Closed**: Closed Sep 25, Chuseok day - **Corkage**: 20,000 won for wine or sake, 30,000 won for whiskey - **Groups**: Group tables for 5–10; full venue rental from 25 people (ask for details) - **Amenities**: Group-friendly, reservations, Wi-Fi - **What we ordered**: Chinese chili nurungji eggplant fritters, spicy red egg soup, Nimome, Bingtanbok *as written by the visitor on Sep 25, 2026* Sisibibi, near Sadang Station, was our second-round stop.

![Interior hall and table layout at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-07-8rwzt-m-966.webp) ![Vertical view of Sisibibi's interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-08-1lp1d-966.webp) ![Seating interior at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-09-1g3h7-966.webp) ![Full view of the hall at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-10-1thc2-966.webp) The interior is clean and the tables are spaced just right, so even with a group of customers around, it was easy to have a conversation ### Close-up look at the tables and setting ![Table detail at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-11-11kd3-966.webp) ![Basic side snack with an old-school feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-12-6trki-966.webp) Once you sit down they bring out a basic side snack — maybe because Sadang skews an older crowd, it had that old-school snack vibe I guess I'm at an age now where Sadang suits me better than Hongdae or Gangnam... it's comfortable ## Nimome, a traditional Korean liquor ![Glass of traditional liquor ordered at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-13-86iul-966.webp) ![Bottle of Nimome traditional liquor](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-14-116s8-966.webp) I ordered it thinking I'd had it before — turns out it wasn't the same one, but it was still delicious, this Nimome ![Award notice on the Nimome label from a traditional liquor competition](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-15-13jxy-966.webp) Apparently it won top prize at the 2017 Korea Traditional Liquor Competition ![Generously portioned side dish plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-16-io9u7-966.webp) I figured the low price meant a small portion, but it actually comes in a pretty generous amount — see the photo! ![Cilantro served separately alongside a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-17-fx1ay-966.webp) I don't eat cilantro, but my companion loves it, so I asked in advance for it to be served separately — the best ## Spicy red egg soup at Sisibibi ![Sisibibi's spicy red egg soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-18-n22b0-966.webp) *Spicy red egg soup* I ordered this thinking it'd be nice to have one soup dish, and it paired really well with the drinks we ordered this time — very satisfying egg soup ![Inside the egg soup with egg and glass noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-19-1kwuf-966.webp) Another great thing about Sisibibi's egg soup — lots of egg, and it even has glass noodles in it ## Chinese chili nurungji (scorched rice) eggplant fritters ![A plate of Chinese chili nurungji eggplant fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-20-1jql9-966.webp) *Chinese chili nurungji eggplant fritters* And here's the eggplant fritters I was really, really happy with. Coming with nurungji (scorched rice) makes for a great combo, and especially the Chinese chili sauce was so delicious It's clearly a Korean pub, yet even the Chinese-style sauce is perfect here ![Close-up of eggplant fritters topped with chili sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-21-1b0nb-966.webp) Back in school, I only ever got mushy eggplant and hated it — if they'd served eggplant fritters like this back then, I'd have loved eggplant way sooner ![Eggplant fritter picked up together with nurungji](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-22-3tozh-966.webp) If this had been our first round instead of the second, I would have ordered the eggplant fritters one more time ## Bingtanbok, the last drink of the night ![Bingtanbok ordered at Sisibibi](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-23-1xmg2-966.webp) ![Bingtanbok glass and side dish spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi-24-116x8-966.webp) Hangang-style boksoju (peach liqueur soju cocktails) have been trendy for a while now, and the Bingtanbok we ordered here has a similar vibe If you like boksoju, this will be your kind of thing ## What we liked about Sisibibi The staff were kind and the vibe of the place is great, so it works well for both a date and a gathering. Sadang has a strong image of loud, rowdy bars so I hadn't come around here much, but this time I found a bar that's exactly my style — really satisfied ## What could be better at Sisibibi Nothing ## One-line verdict on Sisibibi If you're looking for a quiet bar around Sadang, Sisibibi is one I'd want you to visit(♥) ## Where it is - Sisibibi (사당 시시비비) - 163 Sadang-ro 30-gil, 2nd floor, Dongjak-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 동작구 사당로30길 163 2층 - 37.4774866, 126.980839 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%AC%EB%8B%B9%20%EC%8B%9C%EC%8B%9C%EB%B9%84%EB%B9%84/@37.4774866,126.980839,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-evening-stool-2/sadang-korean-pub-quiet-date-sisibibi/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
