Two adults and two kids ordered the hwangto-marinated garlic beef short rib platter (kkotgalbi + galbisal) for 89,000 won in a private room, with grilled shiitake mushrooms and seafood doenjang stew (soybean paste soup) on the side. With a baby chair, self-service banchan bar and plenty of parking, it's an easy pick for a family barbecue outing. ## Good to know - **Hwangto Garlic Beef Short Rib Platter (kkotgalbi + galbisal)**: ₩89,000 - **Closed**: Every Sunday - **Parking**: Spacious lot, plenty of room before 6 PM - **Seating**: Private rooms, baby chairs available - **Extras**: Self-service banchan refill bar, barley tea water, dessert served after the meal *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* My husband recently caught a bad cold and was really run down, and between childcare and work I was feeling drained too. So to recharge, we went to eat beef at Dorimgwan, a well-known beef restaurant in Hyangnam 🧡 ![Exterior view of Dorimgwan Hyangnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-01-h0fmw-900.webp) ![Parking lot and entrance of Dorimgwan Hyangnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-02-qty8b-900.webp) ## Parking and closing day We got there before 6 PM after work and there weren't many cars in the lot, so parking was easy haha. The parking space is also pretty huge! Closed every Sunday, so keep that in mind if you're planning a visit! On our way in, haha, we spotted a kitten and our kids got completely distracted, lingering there for a bit before we finally headed into the restaurant. As we sat down we noticed a funny sticker — "Good grill master seat" lol. Guess whoever sits there is supposed to be good at grilling meat. ## Reserved ahead, so the table was already set We'd made a reservation ahead of time, and the table setting was already all prepared when we arrived — I was so touched by the thoughtfulness. We were also starving at that point, haha. ![Banchan table already set up thanks to the reservation](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-03-vqpev-900.webp) ![Dorimgwan's basic table setting with side dish plates](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-04-1x5z6-900.webp) Dorimgwan, known in Hyangnam for its great beef, clearly puts a lot of care into every single banchan (side dish) on the table! ![Close-up of Dorimgwan's carefully made banchan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-05-1ur56-900.webp) ![Seafood doenjang jjigae loaded with tofu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-06-1jrma-900.webp) Seafood doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew) loaded with tofu. We had it as a palate cleanser while eating beef, and it was genuinely rich and deep ^^ It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say we went for beef and ended up sampling a whole Korean meal course. ## Menu and order — Hwangto Garlic Beef Short Rib Platter, ₩89,000 ![Dorimgwan Hyangnam menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-07-gqrp0-m-900.webp) ![Menu board listing the beef short rib items and prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-08-1tecu-900.webp) ![Menu board showing the meal menu items](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-09-2oav4-900.webp) Our family (2 adults, 2 kids) went with the most recommended item — the hwangto (yellow-clay) garlic beef short rib platter with kkotgalbi (flower-cut short rib) and galbisal (rib finger meat) for 89,000 won. In the end, we — the big-eater couple — walked out completely stuffed. ![Shiitake mushrooms on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-10-4qvlw-900.webp) What's this sitting on the charcoal grill? Shiitake mushrooms! ## Barley tea to drink, private room for the kids The water Dorimgwan serves is barley tea, and it was so nutty and warm. Our kids love barley tea too and drank it right up ^^? Hahahaha, whether you're a kid or an adult, good-tasting water matters! ![Cup of nutty barley tea on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-11-13cre-900.webp) There's thoughtful attention to detail for guests everywhere you look, haha. We were seated in a private room toward the back, so the four of us could eat comfortably with the kids being as loud as they wanted. There's a baby chair too, of course : ) ## Refilling banchan at the self-service bar We checked out the self-service bar too! It's set up so you can take as much of any banchan you're low on as you like, within reason of course. ![Self-service bar for refilling banchan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-12-176zd-900.webp) ![Side dish corner at the self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-13-1gzy2-900.webp) After browsing the self-bar, we came back to find the mushrooms perfectly grilled — so moist and delicious. We dipped them in chilgejang (seasoned raw crab sauce) and it was fantastic! ![Perfectly grilled, moist shiitake mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-14-jir39-900.webp) ![Grilled mushrooms dipped in chilgejang sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-15-16ajp-900.webp) ## The beef arrives, piled high with garlic The beef arrives! Time to put it on the grill — the 'hwangto garlic beef short rib platter,' loaded with garlic. ![Hwangto garlic beef short rib platter piled with garlic](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-16-1frin-1200.webp) Oh my, the meat looked so fresh! My husband and I both gasped the moment we saw it. To take care of the kids first, we cooked the beef through thoroughly and cut it up on their plates right away — both our kids, big and little, ate the tender beef so well ~ haha. Mom and Dad were so proud ^^ ![Beef short ribs and garlic cooking on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-17-1dix4-900.webp) ![Simmering seafood doenjang jjigae alongside the grilled meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-18-1yyyi-900.webp) The seafood doenjang jjigae simmering away looked gorgeous, haha. And now Mom and Dad's serious eating time begins too. The meat was delicious plain, and also great dipped lightly in the onions or sauce provided ~ Looking at these photos makes me want to go back to Dorimgwan, our go-to Hyangnam beef spot! They grilled up the galbisal too. ![Galbisal grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-19-8bqrc-900.webp) The beef cooks fast on the charcoal grill so you have to keep flipping it, but our kids, hah, kept shouting for "more, more, more" — they clearly loved it. ![Flipping the beef as it cooks on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-20-1t9d6-900.webp) ![Fully grilled short ribs plated up](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-21-1iyec-900.webp) Both the kids and us parents ate ourselves full of beef for the first time in a while. ![The table after everyone ate their fill](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-22-tl46j-900.webp) ## Finishing with seafood doenjang jjigae and dessert For a final palate cleanser, we happily finished the seafood doenjang jjigae, boiled down nice and thick! ![A bowl of thickly simmered seafood doenjang jjigae](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-23-1kpwt-900.webp) ![Dessert corner offered after the meal at Dorimgwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room-24-1ulkg-900.webp) On our way out after the meal, we found these little desserts waiting. Felt like a thoughtful touch from Dorimgwan that people of all ages would appreciate, haha. If you're in Hyangnam and want to enjoy grilled beef short ribs privately with your kids, trust me and give this place a try! ^^* ## Where it is - Dorimgwan Hyangnam (도림관 향남본점) - 50 Seobong-ro, Hyangnam-eup, Manse-gu, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 화성시 만세구 향남읍 서봉로 50 - 37.1001343, 126.9076944 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%8F%84%EB%A6%BC%EA%B4%80%20%ED%96%A5%EB%82%A8%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.1001343,126.9076944,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@trial-basket-beauty/dorimgwan-hyangnam-family-galbi-private-room/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
