Gangnam Station restaurant open all day, no break time: Eulji Darak

Where is Eulji Darak Gangnam Station, and what are the hours?

Eulji Darak Gangnam Station is on the 2nd floor at 22 Gangnam-daero 96-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. It's open daily from 11:30 to 21:15, last order at 20:30, and there's no break time. No pets allowed, and no parking either, so you'll need to use a nearby public parking lot.

I went to Gangnam for the first time in a while! I got the chance to grab a meal voucher at a restaurant I've been going to for years, so I headed straight over. This time I visited with a sponsored meal voucher, but it's a place I've genuinely loved for years — let me introduce Eulji Darak, the Gangnam Station restaurant with no break time.

Eulji Darak is open from 11:30am to 9:15pm. Since it's a Western food spot open through lunch, tons of office workers come by! And with no break time, you can go whenever you want, which is nice (˵ •ᴗ• ˵)

The entrance has moved: press the elevator button

It'd been a while since my last visit, and I think the door in the photo on the left used to be the entrance, but it's changed. It might throw you off a bit, but if you press the elevator button, the restaurant appears.

Inside Eulji Darak: atmosphere and the self-serve station

The inside of Eulji Darak is a very clean white tone! Maybe because I went during lunch hour, but there were sooo many office workers there for a meal haha.

Water, tissues, and wet wipes are all neatly arranged. Pickles are provided if you ask.

Eulji Darak menu and what we ordered for two

Here's the menu! There's a wide range of Western dishes from pasta to risotto, so if you love Western food, you'll really enjoy this place.

• Pork neck steak ₩24,000
• Spicy crab risotto ₩19,000
• Eulji-ade (lemon) ₩6,900

The pork neck steak is the dish I've always ordered every time I've come to Eulji Darak.

The table setting is nicely done too. I really liked that flat spoon haha. Eating risotto with it kind of feels like a full mouthful, ha. The tissue also has this cute phrase, something like 'happily clattering away right now' — so cute.

You order by ringing this bell. If you're shy like me, this might be a little tough haha. I always feel weird about ringing a bell to call staff, like I'm being bossy (definitely not the case, but still!), so I asked my friend to do it. She did it without a second thought.

Eulji-ade (lemon), 6,900 won

The ade came out first! You just pour in the syrup that comes alongside it.

The color was so pretty... it wasn't too sweet or too sour, so sipping it between bites never got in the way. Loved it.

Chopped pork neck steak, 24,000 won: the dish I always order

My absolute favorite dish at Eulji Darak!! The pork neck steak. Meat, roasted vegetables, and mashed potatoes too! It's packed with everything I love.

The seasoning isn't too strong, and the vegetables — bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli, and more — are roasted in a nice variety, which I love. Also, the meat is pretty big but not tough at all, so it's easy to eat!! Tender enough to eat in one bite without any trouble.

I really love potatoes, so I love this mashed potato too. Eating it together with the steak and roasted vegetables is soooo good (~‾▿‾)~

Spicy crab risotto, 19,000 won: mix the egg yolk if you are weak with spice

This is the spicy crab risotto my friend wanted! You pop the egg yolk and mix it in.

I'm a total spice-wimp, and I mixed it a bit carelessly, so it turned out pretty spicy. But it was so good I kept eating anyway... So I mixed it properly one more time, and it became a nicely spicy level! If you're a spice-wimp too, make sure to mix the yolk in well with this risotto.

There's this much crab in it too. Eating spicy risotto together with crab made the flavor incredibly rich. Absolute umami bomb. It paired really well with the pork neck steak ◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜

The two of us went and were totally stuffed haha. Cleaned our plates completely.
