Planning to eat beef, the writer switched to the ₩29,900 all-you-can-eat eel course instead, adding self-bar pork belly and chicken neck meat to thick eel body and tail cuts. Spacious and clean, it worked well for both recovery meals and group dinners. ## Good to know - **All-you-can-eat eel (adult)**: ₩29,900 - **All-you-can-eat eel (child, elementary school)**: ₩14,000 - **Table setting fee**: ₩3,000 - **Self-bar**: Wrap vegetables, side dishes, pork belly & chicken neck meat, sauces - **Additional meal items**: Eel soup, galbitang, yukgaejang, buckwheat cold noodles, spicy ramyeon - **Address**: 8-35 Gwonjung-ro 50beon-gil, Gwonseon-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* ![Main photo of grilled freshwater eel at Songnim Bok Jangeo Suwon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-01-dvebg-1200.webp) ## Went for beef, ended up with all-you-can-eat eel My husband and I wanted to go get some good beef and do a bit of body recovery eating haha! But thinking about prices these days, I looked around and realized that for the price of beef, we could go somewhere and eat as much fresh freshwater eel as we wanted! ![Visiting the all-you-can-eat eel restaurant in Suwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-02-11w5c-900.webp) Wanting both stamina and good value, we headed to a famous Suwon eel spot, Songnim Bok Jangeo Freshwater Eel All-You-Can-Eat Suwon Main Branch. ![Exterior of Songnim Bok Jangeo Freshwater Eel All-You-Can-Eat Suwon Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-03-1kvzz-m-900.webp) *The exterior of Songnim Bok Jangeo, well suited for group gatherings and dinners in Suwon* ## What's the atmosphere like inside? The moment we walked in, the spacious, comfortable interior caught my eye right away. The tables were spaced generously too, making for a relaxed dining setup. ![Interior of Songnim Bok Jangeo with generously spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-04-19ww9-900.webp) *The spacious, comfortable interior of this eel spot near Suwon City Hall, great for group dinners* No smoke or grease residue anywhere — kept impressively clean — so I immediately understood why it's recommended as a group dinner spot for office workers nearby. ## All-you-can-eat eel prices and menu ![Songnim Bok Jangeo menu board showing all-you-can-eat eel prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-05-195np-900.webp) *The menu showing all-you-can-eat eel prices and the various additional meal options* We sat down and looked over the menu. The all-you-can-eat eel price is ₩29,900 for adults, ₩14,000 for children (elementary school), plus a ₩3,000 table setting fee — a very reasonable setup! ![Menu section showing additional meal items](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-06-1sylr-900.webp) Not just freshwater eel — with various meats and side dishes included, the value was excellent. There were also plenty of additional meal options: eel soup, galbitang, yukgaejang, buckwheat cold noodles, and spicy ramyeon. ## Neat, tidy basic side dishes Once we ordered, clean basic side dishes were set out. ![Basic side dishes of perilla leaves, pickled onion, and ginger namul](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-07-fxaxr-900.webp) Fragrant perilla leaves to bring out the flavor of the grilled eel, sweet-savory pickled onions, and — of course — the essential spicy-sharp ginger namul (seasoned side dish) were all set out neatly. Each side dish was so tidy that I got excited about how to combine them with the eel. ## Pork belly and chicken neck meat at the self-bar too I went to the self-bar to grab more side dishes, and it turned out this wasn't just an eel all-you-can-eat — surprisingly, you could also help yourself to as much pork belly and chicken neck meat as you wanted! ![Neat basic side dishes served alongside the grilled eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-08-os7u0-900.webp) *The tidy basic side dishes that double the flavor of the grilled eel* The self-bar had wrap vegetables, side dishes, meats, and various sauces, all kept clean and easy to serve yourself according to taste. We wanted to try a bit of everything, so we loaded up carefully. ![Wrap vegetables and side dishes brought from the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-09-1qsi0-900.webp) ![Plate of sauces and side dishes from the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-10-xx0hw-900.webp) ![Plate of meats brought from the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-11-rho35-900.webp) ![Ingredients prepared at the self-bar corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-12-34wov-900.webp) ![Pork belly and chicken neck meat brought from the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-13-1gndt-900.webp) *Pork belly and chicken neck meat at an eel restaurant!?* ## Thick, high-quality grilled freshwater eel Then the main event — the freshwater eel — went on the grill! I thought since it was all-you-can-eat, the pieces might be small or thin, but I was pleasantly surprised — the flesh was really thick and high quality!!! I love the thick body part, so I mainly grilled body and tail cuts. ![Freshwater eel body and tail cuts cooking on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-14-jpq9n-900.webp) Tasting a nicely browned piece of eel, it was crispy outside, juicy and bursting with flavor inside — genuinely delicious eel. ![Thick-cut grilled freshwater eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-15-of3do-900.webp) *The impressive thickness and quality of the freshwater eel* There's a reason it's called an eel spot near Suwon City Hall. ![A nicely browned piece of grilled eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-16-umn7s-900.webp) ![Close-up of springy, plump grilled freshwater eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-17-qcvbc-900.webp) ![Grilling eel on the tabletop grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-18-1obay-900.webp) ![A piece of eel held up with tongs](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-19-1ekua-900.webp) So plump and springy!! ## Savory pork belly & chewy chicken neck meat After eating our fill of eel, we grilled up the pork belly and chicken neck meat we'd brought over. The pork belly picked up a nice smoky char and had the fat rendered right out, making it savory, while the chicken neck meat had that distinct chewy texture with a light, clean flavor — a real treat. Starting with eel and moving through various meats made for a satisfying meal. ## How to wrap grilled eel for the best bite ![Perilla leaves and side dishes ready for wrapping eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-20-1l3t3-900.webp) ![Grilled eel placed on a perilla leaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-21-jwz76-900.webp) Let me share a tip for eating this well! ![Eel wrap topped with perilla leaf, ginger namul, and pickled onion](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-22-ldsgo-900.webp) *A hearty eel wrap with perilla leaf, ginger namul, and pickled onion* Place a well-grilled, thick piece of eel on a fragrant perilla leaf, dab on some spicy ginger namul and the special sauce. Add pickled onion on top, then wrap it into one big bite — the richness gets cut right through and savoriness fills your mouth. ## Final thoughts ![Table full of eel and meat dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-23-1v764-900.webp) ![Table at Songnim Bok Jangeo after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim/suwon-freshwater-eel-unlimited-songlim-24-vg9o4-900.webp) We went planning to eat beef, but ended up with a hearty meal of reasonably priced, thick freshwater eel plus pork belly and chicken neck meat. The space is also large and clean, making it perfect for gatherings or group dinners!!!
