At 7:30pm there was no wait at Jjamppong Jijon, the food arrived in what felt like 5 to 7 minutes, the sujebi (hand-torn dough) jjamppong was full of smoky wok flavor, rice came with free refills, and the glutinous rice sweet and sour pork was mild enough even for spice-shy eaters. A filling, fast weeknight meal near Yeoksam Station. ## Good to know - **Location**: 2nd floor, Building B, 21 Teheran-ro 10-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul - **Getting there**: About a 7-minute walk from Yeoksam Station, Line 2 - **Parking**: Available - **Hours**: Weekdays 10:00-22:00 (last order 21:30) / Weekends 10:00-21:00 (last order 20:30) - **Closed**: Sep 24, 25 and 26 for the Chuseok holiday - **Self-serve bar**: Pickled radish, onion, jjasai (pickled mustard stem) and Korean-grown kimchi, plus tongs, scissors and small plates - **Rice**: Free refills *as written by the visitor on Sep 16, 2026* ![Cover photo from a visit to Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-01-pkvmd-1200.webp) It's been a while, so I went back to Jjamppong Jijon. Here's my review of the Yeoksam branch, starting now > Especially recommended for these people - Office workers near Yeoksam Station ## Where is Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch, and is parking available? ![Exterior of Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch, 7 minutes on foot from Yeoksam Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-02-1su0v-966.webp) It's about a 7-minute walk from Yeoksam Station on Line 2, and parking was available! ## Was there a wait at 7:30pm, and how fast did the food arrive? > No wait as of 7:30pm On a weekday evening there was no separate wait at all. The food came out really fast, so I thought it would also be good for lunchtime. It felt like it arrived in about 5-7 minutes after ordering. ![Menu board listing cooked dishes and meal items at Jjamppong Jijon](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-03-hqjts-966.webp) Along with dishes like kkanpung shrimp, fried eggplant, and sweet and sour pork, the cooked-dish lineup was solid. The meal menu also had a good range — sujebi (hand-torn dough), rice noodle, and soft tofu versions of jjamppong all use different ingredients, giving each a distinct feel, so there were quite a lot of choices. ## Inside Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch: seating and atmosphere ![Interior view of Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-04-1rjnd-966.webp) ![Interior with built-in sofa seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-05-18ppz-966.webp) ![Layout of 2-seat and 4-seat tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-06-ori79-966.webp) ![Seating area at Jjamppong Jijon Yeoksam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-07-sbutt-966.webp) ![Clean interior atmosphere of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-08-1qlkj-966.webp) The interior was clean and comfortable overall. With built-in sofa seating plus a mix of 2-seat and 4-seat tables and a quick table turnover, it looked like it could easily handle group meals too. ![Self-serve bar with side dishes and utensils](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-09-14c49-966.webp) You could freely use the self-serve bar for side dishes like pickled radish, onion, jajai, and domestic kimchi, as well as utensils like tongs, scissors, and small plates. ## How does the sujebi jjamppong taste? ![A bowl of sujebi jjamppong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-10-1dbm8-966.webp) ![Jjamppong with chewy sujebi dough](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-11-1p5u8-m-966.webp) ![Sujebi jjamppong loaded with seafood and vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-12-awdnx-966.webp) First up, the sujebi jjamppong with its lovely chewy texture. It was full of smoky wok flavor, almost like eating it back in China — and sure enough, it turns out the head chef is Chinese! Most of the other customers were Chinese too, so I figured they must have come knowing about his skills haha. The portions were generous, packed with vegetables and plenty of seafood too. ![A meal dish at Jjamppong Jijon packed with ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-13-151jj-966.webp) ![Meal served with free-refill rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-14-74on8-966.webp) This dish was also loaded with ingredients. And since the rice is free refills, I could eat as much as I wanted. ## How spicy is the glutinous rice sweet and sour pork? ![Glutinous rice sweet and sour pork with chili sauce base](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-15-z3fg2-966.webp) ![Sweet and sour pork with chewy glutinous rice batter stretching](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong/jjamppong-jijon-yeoksam-sujebi-jjamppong-16-p630k-966.webp) Maybe because of the glutinous rice batter, it stretched chewily, and being chili-sauce based it had a nice savory depth. It's mild enough that even spice-shy eaters can enjoy it, so I'd recommend this dish. ## Is Jjamppong Jijon worth a dinner stop near Yeoksam Station?
