Post-workout pork and cheese cutlets in Songdo: Ogong Donkatsu

Today I'm writing about Ogong Donkatsu, a new Western-style pork cutlet place in Songdo's District 5 that I visited after a workout~

Where is Ogong Donkatsu in Songdo, and where can you park?

Ogong Donkatsu is at 27 Songdomirae-ro 11beon-gil, Unit 121, 1F Building B, Smart Square, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, right on the main road. It's open 11:00–21:00 and closed on Sundays.

Park in the building's underground garage, and just tell the staff when you pay at Ogong Donkatsu and they'll cover your parking, haha

Inside Ogong Donkatsu: good for solo diners and kids?

The inside is L-shaped. The back has bar seating, which makes it a great setup for a solo lunch in Songdo, while the front has 4-person tables that work well for groups~

The country-of-origin labels were posted inside, and it was nice to see that most ingredients are domestic, haha. They also have high chairs, so it looked like a good place to bring a child~

Besides cutlets, the wall was promoting garlic tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), which seemed like a nice side to order if you come as a couple or with friends~ They also say they don't use roux (flour and butter) and make their sauce in-house~ All of that made it clear to me this is an Incheon cutlet place that doesn't skimp on ingredients!

There's a kiosk at each seat so you can order right when you sit down~ And if you leave a Naver receipt review, they give you a drink, so it seemed worth doing the review for the freebie~

How does the signature Ogong Donkatsu cutlet taste?

Our Ogong Donkatsu and cheese cutlet have arrived!

First, my Ogong Donkatsu (₩12,000) came with two big pieces of cutlet, cabbage salad, corn salad, rice, a warm soup, pickled radish and pickles!

See the crispy-looking coating on the side where the sauce is poured? It's a Western-style cutlet, but the texture is still there~ The soup that came with it was warm too, great for settling the stomach~

Veggies first, right? I had a bite of cabbage salad and then the cutlet~ For a Western-style cutlet the meat is quite thick, and above all the sauce clearly doesn't taste like a store-bought one, which made me happy~

Is Ogong Donkatsu's cheese cutlet worth it for cheese lovers?

The cheese cutlet (₩14,000) my friend ordered wasn't flat but plump, with a bit of a ball-katsu look~

When we cut it in half and pulled it apart, the cheese stretched and stretched, which cheese lovers will definitely love, haha

The stretchy refrigerated cheese and a good meat-to-cheese ratio balanced the cheese cutlet nicely, and the stretching made it fun to eat~

What to order for two at Ogong Donkatsu

Personally, if two of you come to Ogong Donkatsu, I'd order one cheese cutlet and one other cutlet, share a piece of the cheese cutlet first, and then move on to the other cutlet. That way you get to enjoy a few kinds~

Final verdict on Ogong Donkatsu in Songdo

Ogong Donkatsu, the new Western-style cutlet place in Songdo's District 5, has a tasty sauce and cutlets that stick to the basics, so it's a place almost anyone can leave satisfied with~ If you're craving a Western-style cutlet, give it a try~
