Songnim Bok Jangeo's Seongsu branch sits deep in a Seongsu alley, on the 1st floor at 148 Seongdeokjeong-gil. Unlimited freshwater eel, plus all-you-can-eat pork belly and duck neck meat — I was excited even before walking in! ![Exterior of Songnim Bok Jangeo Seongsu Branch tucked in a Seongsu alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-02-ckrn9-900.webp) The eel was soaked through with charcoal aroma, and the duck neck meat was good enough to rival a dedicated duck restaurant. With a free bottle of bokbunja on top, I left with a full stomach and a good mood. ![Entrance view of Songnim Bok Jangeo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-03-1sklr-900.webp) ![All-you-can-eat signage and restaurant interior view](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-04-1cnao-900.webp) The all-you-can-eat deal runs for 2 hours at ₩29,900! Tucked away in a Seongsu alley, it felt like a hidden gem that a lot of neighborhood locals frequent. It's great for a stop while exploring the area, and also works well for a family meal or a group gathering. ![Interior atmosphere of Songnim Bok Jangeo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-05-osriy-900.webp) ![Group seating with wide table spacing at Songnim Bok Jangeo](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-06-1khwh-900.webp) The interior had a clean yet cozy Korean BBQ vibe. Tables were spaced generously and group seating was well set up, so it'd be great for a loud, lively gathering with a bunch of people. Takeout is available too, so packing up leftovers after the meal is an option. The owner and staff were friendly, which made for a relaxed, no-pressure meal. ## Unlimited freshwater eel for 29,900 won: staff grill the first round I ordered Songnim Bok Jangeo's signature dish: unlimited freshwater eel at ₩29,900 per adult. For the first round, the staff kindly grilled a mix of eel, pork belly, and duck neck meat for us. ![Table setting for the all-you-can-eat freshwater eel meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-07-1mbfe-900.webp) ![Charcoal grill and the first round of meat being prepared](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-08-aw7ra-900.webp) ![Eel, pork belly, and duck neck meat on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-09-1ufqg-900.webp) ![Charcoal-grilled freshwater eel grilled by staff](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-10-17zc5-900.webp) ![Close-up of golden-brown grilled freshwater eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-11-ass8h-900.webp) Eating the eel grilled golden brown over the hot charcoal, the subtle charcoal aroma wafted through, crispy outside and juicy inside — so good. ![Eel topped with teriyaki sauce and shredded ginger](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-12-1q6ko-900.webp) ![Side dishes including green onion kimchi, perilla leaves, and pickled onions](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-13-184k6-900.webp) No fishy taste at all — just tender and savory. Wrapped with a bit of teriyaki sauce and shredded ginger, it was pure honey. The side dishes were varied too — green onion kimchi, perilla leaves, pickled onions, and more — so the meal felt complete. ![Side dish spread served alongside the eel](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-14-1vn2l-900.webp) ### The complimentary bottle of bokbunja wine Eel goes with bokbunja, of course!! I was actually about to order some, but they gave us a bottle for free. The sweet, sharp bokbunja paired perfectly with the eel, duck neck, and pork belly. ![A complimentary bottle of bokbunja wine](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-15-1rjp2-900.webp) ## Duck neck and pine needle-aged pork belly: more memorable than the eel The eel at Songnim Bok Jangeo was delicious, but the duck neck meat here was seriously outstanding! It was savory and chewy enough to pass for a dedicated duck restaurant. Grilled golden over the charcoal, it had a springy texture packed with savory juices — I refilled it again and again. ![Charcoal-grilled duck neck meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-16-a8onf-900.webp) ![Refilled duck neck meat on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-17-zfuhb-900.webp) ![Duck neck meat and pine needle-aged pork belly grilling together](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-18-1rrsd-900.webp) The pork belly was aged with pine needles, so there was no gamey smell, and the quality was great — a good balance of fat and lean meat that I really enjoyed. ![Grilled pine needle-aged pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-19-3656k-900.webp) ## How does the all-you-can-eat self-serve bar work? At Songnim Bok Jangeo's self-serve bar, you can freely grab fresh freshwater eel, pork belly, and duck neck meat. No need to feel awkward about it — the bar was kept clean and organized, so I could take as much as I wanted. ![Overview of the all-you-can-eat self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-20-1ueoc-900.webp) ![Freshwater eel and meats laid out on the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork/seongsu-eel-buffet-duck-neck-pork-21-1yuce-900.webp) ## Who should eat at Songnim Bok Jangeo?
