Arriving alone for a late dinner after a skin care appointment, the writer ordered minari gomtang (water parsley beef soup) for 14,000 won and pollock salad for 14,000 won, then added perilla leaves from the self-serve side dish bar. Deep broth with tender Korean beef plus the sweet-spicy pollock salad made Geumnyeong Gomtang an easy, filling solo meal. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1 Bongeunsa-ro 4-gil, 1st floor, Gangnam-gu, Seoul — 2-minute walk from Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 4 - **Hours**: From 10:30 AM (closed Sundays) - **Break time**: 3:00 PM–5:00 PM - **What was ordered**: Minari gomtang 14,000 won, pollock salad 14,000 won, zero-sugar cola 2,000 won - **Menu**: Gomtang and rice noodles as mains, with pollock salad and boiled pork slices as sides - **Self-serve bar**: 6 side dishes, with kimchi and diced radish kimchi served in earthenware pots - **Price reference**: ₩1,000 ≈ $0.7 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 15, 2026* ![Signature photo of minari gomtang and pollock salad at Geumnyeong Gomtang Yeoksam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-01-1netk-1200.webp) I came to Sinnonhyeon Station after work for a skin care appointment, and figured dinner would be way too late if I waited until I got home — so I stopped by Geumnyeong Gomtang, a solo-dining Korean restaurant favorite near the station, and had dinner there! I ordered the deep, rich broth with warm rice along with the spicy pollock salad, which was a nice special touch. Even though it was dinner out, it was easy on the stomach, filling, and really delicious~ And the owner was super friendly too, so it was a pleasant meal all around! ## Geumnyeong Gomtang Yeoksam Branch hours and how to get there from Sinnonhyeon Station This Sinnonhyeon favorite is open from 10:30 AM every day except Sunday, so you can go for lunch all the way through dinner.

Coming back afterward, the lit-up exterior looked so pretty! Decorated with cherry blossom trees, it feels more like a café than a gomtang restaurant haha. ### Inside Geumnyeong Gomtang: seating for solo diners ![Interior of Geumnyeong Gomtang Yeoksam Branch with widely spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-07-1duwr-966.webp) Opening the door, the inside was really bright and neatly arranged.

I grabbed some perilla leaves haha. They brought over the earthenware pots too. The kimchi and diced radish kimchi were so generously portioned~! I served myself as much as I wanted~ ![Bowl of minari gomtang topped with minari](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-13-pe1u5-966.webp) ## How do the minari gomtang and pollock salad taste? The minari gomtang arrived~ The contrast between the green minari and the meat looked so pretty, and it really looked like premium Korean beef, wow. The pollock salad, neatly served in an earthenware bowl. It came with minari, napa cabbage, cucumber, and onion. ![Pollock salad and vegetables served in an earthenware bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-14-jsukq-966.webp) With the perilla leaves I brought over myself, it was a beautiful, appetizing spread! ![Full spread of minari gomtang, pollock salad, and perilla leaves](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-15-1fk8i-966.webp) A cold cola on the side, all set. The rice is packed inside the gomtang, so it soaks up all that deep broth nicely. ![Inside the gomtang bowl packed with rice in the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-16-irgoy-966.webp) ![Spoonful of gomtang broth and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-17-39oy2-966.webp) I didn't expect there to be rice cakes inside, but they were chewy and so good. ![Rice cake found inside the gomtang](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-18-oi3ta-966.webp) Just as it looks, the beef is slow-cooked so there's no dryness at all — it's tender and just melts along with the rice haha. ![A piece of slow-cooked Korean beef](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-19-1l50n-966.webp) The thick pollock slices, glossy with a spicy-sweet sauce. Both the flavor and color are appetite-boosting! ![Thick, glossy, spicy-sweet pollock slices](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-20-4j5ku-966.webp) After the gomtang, I topped some napa cabbage with minari and pollock salad. If you come to Geumnyeong Gomtang, you absolutely have to order the pollock salad. It's really that good!!! ![A bite of napa cabbage topped with minari and pollock salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-21-5039z-966.webp) ![Pollock salad piled on top of gomtang rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-22-1ayzd-966.webp) It's delicious whether you eat it on its own with vegetables or piled on top of the gomtang rice ㅠㅠ ![Minari gomtang eaten together with self-serve perilla leaves](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-23-8un2g-966.webp) The gomtang pairs really well with the perilla leaves from the self-serve bar too! It's loaded with minari, which I love, so it feels like a healthy meal. The pollock salad also comes with plenty of minari, so laying it over napa cabbage and topping it with the pollock makes for a chewy, spicy-sweet treat. Can't forget the kimchi and diced radish kimchi either~ With that deep broth and top-grade Korean beef, every combination felt wholesome and filling. ![Korean beef purchase record posted in the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner-24-1xite-966.webp) ## Why Geumnyeong Gomtang works for a late solo dinner near Sinnonhyeon Station They even had proof of their Korean beef purchase records posted up~ You can feel the quality just from the meal itself :) If you're looking for a filling, healthy meal near Sinnonhyeon Station, I recommend visiting Geumnyeong Gomtang — just a 2-minute walk away, cooking with great-quality ingredients! ## Where it is - Geumnyeong Gomtang Yeoksam Branch (금녕곰탕 역삼점) - 1 Bongeunsa-ro 4-gil, 1st floor, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 봉은사로4길 1 1층 - 37.5045732, 127.0261358 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B8%88%EB%85%95%EA%B3%B0%ED%83%95%20%EC%97%AD%EC%82%BC%EC%A0%90/@37.5045732,127.0261358,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-meal-gaps/geumnyeong-gomtang-yeoksam-minari-solo-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
