The staff member assigned to us gave us a friendly explanation of everything! There are also group seats and 4-person tables inside. The space isn't huge, but it can hold quite a lot of people. As time passed the place filled up fast — it's the kind of Jeongja Station restaurant people bring whole work teams to. ![Seating inside Nokji Bundang Jeongja Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-03-1tb6d-842.webp) They also sell a variety of drinks in-house that pair well with the food. Water is served hygienically in bottles! There are also high chairs for families with kids. They thoughtfully provide lockers so your personal belongings don't absorb the smoky smell. ![Bar table seat with locker and bottled water ready](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-04-o8rvy-900.webp) Right now the restaurant is running a discount on Suntory Malt's draft beer! ![Sign for the Suntory Malt's draft beer discount promotion](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-05-kf1yv-900.webp) There's also a great deal where you get the pricier green onion rice for free if you leave a Naver receipt review — worth keeping in mind! ## Nokji hours, reservations and parking - Hours: Daily 4:00 PM–10:00 PM - Closed: None - Reservations: Available via Catch Table - Parking: 2 hours supported at Jeongja Station transfer public parking lot - Notes: Reservations available, groups welcome, corkage allowed / one free corkage coupon with Naver reservation ## Nokji menu and prices: French rack at 34,000 won At Nokji Bundang Jeongja Branch we ordered two servings of French rack at ₩34,000 each and mentaiko (pollock roe) green onion rice for ₩6,000.

It's a Jeongja-dong meat restaurant offering high-quality lamb and beef, grilled by experts, at a reasonable price. There's also a nice range of wine and whiskey to pair with the meal — worth a look! ## French rack for two: from table setting to resting the lamb When you order the French rack, Nokji Bundang Jeongja Branch first brings out a personal setting. ![Personal table setting served after ordering the French rack](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-08-1c221-900.webp) This is the personal setting they gave us right after ordering. ![Side dishes including white kimchi, wasabi, and herring roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-09-1eotb-900.webp) From baek-kimchi (white kimchi) to all kinds of sauces — let's take a look one by one! There's wasabi, herring roe, and a seasoned dried radish-green (siraegi) doenjang mix. White kimchi and Nokji's special soy sauce! You can add as much spicy cheongyang chili as you like. And salt for a plain, clean bite! All the side dishes and fermented seafood were mild, not too salty, so they stayed light and never got tiring. Being pregnant, I (Hamjourney) only added a tiny bit of cheongyang chili! ### What the French rack looks like: rosy pink slices for two Soft French rack with a beautiful red glow! ![Two servings of raw French rack with a red glow on a plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-10-1ij1k-900.webp) We ordered two servings — a good amount for two people to share comfortably. ![French rack portioned for two people to share](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-11-bvhp3-900.webp) I'd heard it's more tender and tasty than shoulder rack, so I decided to try it. ![Close-up of the French rack before grilling](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-12-1gyme-900.webp) The charcoal grill was already heating up from the moment we ordered! ![Heated charcoal grill built into the bar table](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-13-1i8z7-900.webp) They laid the French rack, mushrooms, and green onion on the grill with a satisfying sizzle. ![French rack, mushrooms, and green onion on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-14-e7opo-900.webp) Thanks to the strong heat and the staff's skill, it grilled to perfection without ever burning. ![Staff grilling the lamb French rack](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-15-bejiy-1200.webp) They flipped the meat at just the right moments as it turned a beautiful golden brown. They cooked it just enough and sliced it for us first. The outside was golden and crisp, the inside juicy — their grilling skill is really something else! The meat then goes through a resting process, which spreads the heat evenly inside, reducing juice loss and maximizing flavor and aroma. After resting, the lamb is sliced up into easy-to-eat pieces — and the plate it's served on is actually a mini grill too, so the meat never gets cold! ![Grilled French rack served on a mini-grill plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-16-1405m-900.webp) The lean meat is thick with a satisfying chew, but because it's young lamb, it's never tough — just tender all the way through! ![Thickly sliced French rack lean meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-17-zbjhl-900.webp) There's absolutely no gamey smell typical of lamb — it's clean and light. The skill of the staff really matters this much! No wonder it's a well-known Jeongja Station restaurant. ### Three sauces in order: soy, egg yolk and basil pesto Then a second sauce comes out with egg yolk in it. It's a special sauce stirred until the yolk breaks and turns brown. They also serve mashed potatoes, great for dipping the meat in or eating on their own. Creamy and soft, it melts in your mouth — dip it generously in the yolk sauce and it's pure bliss.❤ The mushrooms, grilled golden brown and full of flavor, are also a nice treat. Next they grilled the rib meat, along with some minari (water dropwort) that came with it. Don't underestimate the meat between the bones — it's not tough at all, it has a nice chewy texture. ![Rib meat and grilled minari picked apart on a wooden board](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-18-1gbmv-900.webp) They carefully picked the meat off the bone on a pretty wooden cutting board, prepping it to be easy to eat. They recommended it especially with the minari, since the aroma pairs so well. While the onions were also grilling to a nice golden brown, the last sauce arrived! Basil pesto with nuts, served together with cheese. The French rack rib meat, grilled minari, and the special sauce together were an amazing combination! It genuinely felt like being at a high-end French restaurant. And the caramelized grilled onions added a lovely sweetness on top of everything — truly excellent. ## Mentaiko green onion rice, 6,000 won: the side to pair with lamb And of course, the mentaiko (pollock roe) green onion rice — I always order this whenever I come to Nokji. ![A bowl of mentaiko green onion rice at Nokji Bundang Jeongja Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-19-ieza0-900.webp) Fluffy rice combined with salty mentaiko and fragrant green onion makes for wonderful umami. ![Close-up of mentaiko and green onion on rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-20-1sg96-900.webp) Rather than being sharply salty, the mentaiko's savory flavor spreads gently. ![Mentaiko green onion rice before mixing](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-21-r0yi0-900.webp) Mix it in with the mayo and it comes together in no time! ![Mentaiko green onion rice mixed with mayo](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-22-22rqb-900.webp) The fragrance of green onion adds freshness and balances out the saltiness of the mentaiko cleanly! ![A spoonful of finished mentaiko green onion rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-23-1o375-900.webp) It's a really great side dish to pair with the lamb. ![Green onion rice portioned into a bowl for sharing](https://img.superchart.com/images/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat/nockzi-bundang-jeongja-french-rack-bar-seat-24-j1zgb-900.webp) They even gave us a separate bowl so we could portion it out easily, and we ate until we were full! ## Is Nokji Bundang Jeongja worth it for a date or company dinner?
