On a day with no appetite and low energy, I had its milky chicken-broth dishes alongside tangy mixed cold noodles; it looked suited to solo meals and small gatherings alike. Verdict: Cheongdam Mimgye is worth a visit when you want warm broth and lighter chicken dishes. ## Good to know - **Address**: 20 Hakdong-ro 77-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - **Hours**: Monday–Saturday 11:00–22:00; closed Sunday (please confirm) - **Parking**: Eonbuk Elementary School public parking lot nearby; ₩300 per 10 minutes - **Seating**: Solo bar tables and a room for up to 10 people - **Weekday lunch**: Unlimited steamed rice, 11:00–15:00 - **Corkage**: ₩3,000 per glass; wine, champagne, and spirits permitted *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* ![Signature chicken dish at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-01-wt9lq-1200.webp) Lately I’ve had no appetite and felt a little low on energy, so I was seriously craving a steaming bowl of soup. That’s how I ended up at Cheongdam Mimgye (청담 미미계). They have every kind of chicken dish here, from dak-gomtang (chicken soup) to chogye-guksu (cold chicken noodles) and chicken kalguksu. It’s a modern Korean restaurant that turns one carefully simmered, milky chicken broth into everything from hot pots to noodle dishes, so it’s honestly perfect for anyone looking for a healthy meal 💛 ![Cheongdam Mimgye chicken dish selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-02-1q7de-966.webp) ## What to order at Cheongdam Mimgye > To give you the conclusion first: - For a filling restorative meal, get the half-chicken dak-gomtang ⭐️ - For a day with no appetite, get the tangy mixed chogye-guksu ⭐️ - If you love noodles, get the half-chicken kalguksu ⭐️ - It was a great Cheongdam Station spot for both solo meals and gatherings. ## Getting there from Cheongdam Station and useful info It’s about a five-minute walk from Cheongdam Station! It’s in the alley right beside Cheongdam Neighborhood Park, so it was easy to find even on my first visit. ![Directions to Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-03-1wal6-966.webp) It’s also walkable from Gangnam-gu Office Station, so lots of people look it up as a Gangnam-gu Office restaurant. The hours are said to be Monday–Saturday 11:00–22:00, closed Sunday, though you should confirm. Seoul Pay is accepted, and you can use the nearby Eonbuk Elementary School public parking lot. It’s ₩300 per 10 minutes. ![Exterior of Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-04-2btb3-966.webp) When I walked in, the wood-toned walls and soft indirect lighting gave it a calm, tidy atmosphere. ![Cheongdam Mimgye interior with wood tones and soft lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-05-kky9r-966.webp) There are separate one-person bar tables, so you can eat comfortably alone, and there’s also a room inside for up to 10 people—apparently great for company dinners or family gatherings! ![Bar tables and room at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-06-ndwl2-966.webp) ## Chicken dishes ordered and customized by tablet ![Tablet ordering screen at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-07-15qoz-966.webp) You order from a tablet at each table. Being able to adjust the portion and ingredients yourself was quietly so convenient. ![Chicken dish menu at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-08-1qglu-966.webp) These were the three dishes I had: tangy mixed chogye-guksu, half-chicken dak-gomtang, and half-chicken kalguksu. Since they offer half a chicken rather than a whole one, it was nice for a lighter meal. They also have dakgaejang spicy chicken soup and hot-pot dishes! 👉 TIP: They have soju, beer, makgeolli rice wine, and traditional liquors such as Munbaeju and Ilpum Jinro too. ## The half-chicken soup and chogye-guksu combination ![Banchan side-dish spread at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-09-18sk4-966.webp) The banchan side dishes came out before the mains, and each one was so neatly presented that my expectations immediately went up. ![Neatly presented banchan side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-10-10703-966.webp) ### Half-chicken dak-gomtang The moment the earthenware bowl arrived, there was half a chicken sitting right in that milky broth. I tried a spoonful, and it was clear and clean-tasting. ![Half-chicken dak-gomtang in an earthenware bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-11-14ova-966.webp) A little salt and pepper with a piece of the half chicken was just perfect. It felt like restorative food that wasn’t overly heavy. ![Chicken served with salt and pepper](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-12-ftu2q-966.webp) ### Half-chicken kalguksu The milky chicken broth came loaded with kalguksu noodles. The noodles were pleasantly chewy, and the broth clung right to them. ![Half-chicken kalguksu in milky broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-13-w86zf-966.webp) The portion was honestly just right. ![Perfectly portioned chicken kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-14-9dzea-966.webp) ### Tangy mixed chogye-guksu Ordering this between two bowls of hot soup was such a brilliant move. The sweet-and-tangy seasoning had a touch of mustard that perked right up at the tip of my nose. I usually hold back from mixed noodles when I’m watching my diet, but there was plenty of shredded chicken on top, so it felt like I was getting protein too and I could enjoy it with an easy mind. ![A bowl of tangy mixed chogye-guksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-15-1xsnv-966.webp) ![Chogye-guksu topped with chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-16-1chhc-966.webp) Alternating a spoonful of dak-gomtang with a bite of chogye-guksu kept it delicious right to the end!!!! ## Weekday lunch and corkage tips ![Lunch information at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-17-1bcf7-966.webp) 👉 Weekday lunch comes with unlimited steamed rice. The unlimited-rice event runs weekdays from 11:00–15:00, so definitely try pouring the dak-gomtang over rice. 👉 For solo dining, go for a one-person bar table. 👉 Corkage is ₩3,000 per glass. You can bring wine, champagne, or spirits, and it’s ₩3,000 per glass regardless of bottle count, so it would be nice to bring a bottle for a dinner gathering. ![Corkage information at Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-18-1b4oc-966.webp) ## When I recommend Cheongdam Mimgye ![Final review of a visit to Cheongdam Mimgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles-19-16onh-966.webp) - Office workers eating alone near Cheongdam or Gangnam-gu Office - Anyone managing their diet but looking for a hearty healthy meal - A restorative meal when taking your parents out - A small gathering where you’re bringing wine For a day when you’re low on energy and have no appetite, I recommend a bowl of dak-gomtang at Mimgye near Cheongdam Station 💛 ## Where it is - Cheongdam Mimgye (청담 미미계) - 20 Hakdong-ro 77-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 학동로77길 20 1층 - 37.5199887, 127.0488471 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B2%AD%EB%8B%B4%20%EB%AF%B8%EB%AF%B8%EA%B3%84/@37.5199887,127.0488471,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@twilight-rice-table/cheongdam-chicken-soup-noodles/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
