A couple shared the 2-person jjukkumi sarimong-ttang at 18,800 won per person plus cheese steamed egg and flying fish roe fried rice for 3,500 won each; pork belly comes in the pan, so two servings filled both of them, and the cold seaweed soup cooled down the spice. Songjjujip Magok works well as a dinner that leads straight into an evening walk through Seoul Botanic Park. ## Good to know - **Hours**: 11:00–23:00 (last order 22:00) - **Address**: 2F Central Tower 2, 158 Magokseo-ro, Gangseo-gu, Seoul (260m from Exit 1, Magoknaru Station) - **Parking**: Free parking inside the Central Tower 2 building - **Reservations**: Available through Naver Reservation - **What they ordered**: Jjukkumi sarimong-ttang for 2 (18,800 won per person), cheese steamed egg 3,500 won, flying fish roe fried rice 3,500 won - **Side dishes**: Perilla leaves, seaweed, chives, flying fish roe, mayo sauce, bean sprouts, white kimchi, salad, cold seaweed soup - **Seating**: Large dining hall with a separate group section - **How to order**: Table kiosk plus a staff-call button - **Lunch menu**: Jjukkumi bibimbap - **Price reference**: ₩18,800 ≈ $14 · ₩3,500 ≈ $2.6 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 5, 2026* ![Table spread of jjukkumi sarimong-ttang at Songjjujip Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-01-1x7os-1200.webp) I'm Lime, and I love eating out with family. Ever since I had a really good jjukkumi (webfoot octopus) dish last time, I've been hooked on the flavor. So this time my wife and I headed to Songjjujip Magok near Magoknaru Station. Magok really does seem to be a neighborhood full of great restaurants. This Songjjujip location served up a generous portion of fresh octopus, and with the spicy sauce plus extra noodles and fried rice, it felt like a proper full meal. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone hunting for a good restaurant near Seoul Botanic Park or Magok COEX. ## Where is Songjjujip Magok? Hours, directions and parking Songjjujip Magok is on the 2nd floor of Central Tower 2, 158 Magokseo-ro, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, about 260m from Exit 1 of Magoknaru Station. Hours are 11:00–23:00 (last order 22:00), with free parking in the Central Tower 2 building and Naver Reservation available. It's close enough to Exit 1 of Magoknaru Station to be an easy stop by public transit too. ## Inside Songjjujip Magok: seating and group tables Songjjujip Magok is a 2nd-floor restaurant with a wide, open hall, plus a spacious group seating area off to one side that could easily work for a company dinner. A cute sign greeted us right at the entrance. ![Entrance sign at Songjjujip Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-02-n55c0-966.webp) The whole place was clean and the hall felt wide open, with no sense of being cramped at all. ![Spacious open hall seating at Songjjujip Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-03-12l22-m-966.webp) There's a separate, spacious group seating area on one side that would work great as a spot for office dinners. ![Songjjujip Magok fully packed during evening peak hours](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-04-16ymz-966.webp) We visited during the evening peak and the place was nearly full — clearly a popular jjukkumi spot. ## Songjjujip Magok menu and kiosk ordering At Songjjujip Magok you order through a table kiosk, and any extra requests go through the staff-call button. You can add sari (extra noodles or ingredients) to the spicy octopus dish to your taste, and there's also a jjukkumi bibimbap available at lunch. ![Table-mounted kiosk ordering screen](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-05-1poa1-966.webp) Ordering is easy through the kiosk installed at the table, and for anything extra, all you need to do is press the staff-call button. ![Menu board listing octopus and extra ingredient options](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-06-1w5ps-966.webp) You can add all kinds of extra noodles or ingredients to the spicy octopus dish to enjoy it your way, and at lunchtime there's jjukkumi bibimbap too — this would make a great Magok lunch spot as well. ![Basic side dishes including perilla leaves, seaweed, and chives](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-07-g3pos-966.webp) ![Side dishes of flying fish roe and mayo sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-08-inb2f-966.webp) ![White kimchi and cold seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-09-voiiw-966.webp) The basic side dishes included: perilla leaves, seaweed, chives, flying fish roe, mayo sauce, bean sprouts, white kimchi, salad, and a cool seaweed soup. The white kimchi and cold seaweed soup that came as standard sides were the real MVPs, cleanly cutting through the spice that crept up on us! ## Is jjukkumi sarimong-ttang for two enough for two people? We ordered jjukkumi sarimong-ttang for 2 (₩18,800 per person), plus cheese steamed egg for ₩3,500 and flying fish roe fried rice for ₩3,500. The moment the 2-person jjukkumi sarimong-ttang arrived, I was grateful for how generous the portion looked. There was pork belly in it too, so two servings alone were plenty for the two of us. A friendly staff member cooked the deliciously spicy octopus for us right at the table, which made it so much easier to eat — really appreciated that. The staff recommended a delicious combo: wrap the octopus, dipped in mayo sauce, in a perilla leaf along with seaweed, chives, and bean sprouts. The savory and spicy flavors came together beautifully, a real treat. Personally, I liked it even better without the perilla leaf — just seaweed and chives let the octopus's own bouncy, savory flavor really shine through. ![Cheese steamed egg ordered alongside the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-10-1dqgp-966.webp) The cheese steamed egg we ordered alongside was soft and savory — glad we got it too! ### Finishing with flying fish roe fried rice And of course, we finished with the flying fish roe fried rice! The popping texture of the roe was so satisfying I couldn't put my spoon down. If you visit this jjukkumi restaurant near Magoknaru Station, I highly recommend not skipping the flying fish roe fried rice! We ended up scraping the pot clean. ## Verdict, and a walk to Seoul Botanic Park after dinner ![Wrapping up the octopus meal and a post-meal walk scene](https://img.superchart.com/images/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang-11-1tbw8-860.webp) Getting to enjoy fresh octopus together with pork belly made for a really satisfying meal, and just as the spice started to build, a sip of the cold seaweed soup cleaned the palate right up. Drop by on a day when you're craving something spicy to blow off some stress. After another delicious dinner, we grabbed a cold americano and capped off our Seoul Botanic Park food-and-walk course with a stroll through the garden. Feeling the cool autumn breeze drift by, it was a small but genuinely happy day. ## Where it is - Songjjujip Magok (송쭈집 마곡) - 2F Central Tower 2, 158 Magokseo-ro, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강서구 마곡서로 158 센트럴타워2차 2층 송쭈집 마곡나루점 - 37.5680891, 126.8254241 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%86%A1%EC%AD%88%EC%A7%91%20%EB%A7%88%EA%B3%A1/@37.5680891,126.8254241,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-placemat-2/songjjujip-magok-naru-jjukkumi-sarimongttang/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
