For a family meal with a variety of seafood dishes, I visited Sokcho Ojingeo Eosijang Yeoksam Branch (속초오징어어시장 역삼점).

A seafood restaurant for a family meal near Yeoksam Station

If you're looking among seafood restaurants near Yeoksam Station in Gangnam for somewhere your family can share a variety of seafood dishes, take a look.

The blue sign and menu display caught my eye right from in front of the building. There was also a stand by the entrance where you could check out the different menu items.

When you think of a seafood restaurant near Yeoksam Station, it's easy to picture an evening of raw fish and drinks first. But there was a wide range of menu items here for people visiting for a family meal in Yeoksam, like us, too.

Once inside, the space was bright and had plenty of tables. As you can see in the photos, it had a relatively bright, tidy atmosphere rather than the usual seafood-restaurant feel.

A large menu was posted on the wall, making it easy to see everything at a glance. Sokcho Ojingeo Eosijang Yeoksam Branch had plenty of options beyond raw fish, including dishes suitable for a full meal, so it was easy for everyone in the family to choose what they wanted.

They were also running a small event, so do join in. 😊

There was a self-service bar on one side of the restaurant, where you could help yourself to any side dishes you needed.

You could also serve yourself as much miyeokguk (seaweed soup) as you wanted, so there was plenty of soup without ordering a separate soup dish.

The table came set with basic side dishes, including kimchi. They were nice simple accompaniments before the main dishes arrived.

From salmon sushi to raw fish rice bowls

The first dish to catch my eye was the salmon sushi. Thick slices of salmon were neatly arranged on top, making quite an impression on the table.

When raw fish rice bowls and grilled fish alone felt a little incomplete, adding sushi was a nice option too. I liked having the choice to order sushi as well as raw fish at a seafood restaurant near Yeoksam Station.

The centerpiece of our meal that day was the raw fish rice bowl and salmon rice bowl. Each large bowl came generously filled with raw fish, vegetables, shredded seaweed, and other ingredients. Even in the photos, each bowl looks quite abundant, doesn't it?

I also photographed the process of adding rice and sauce, then mixing it yourself. Everyone could mix theirs to their preferred degree.

With dishes like raw fish rice bowls that make a complete meal, it also seemed like a good option when looking for a seafood restaurant near Gangnam's Yeoksam Station for lunch or a family meal.

A family meal shared with grilled fish and shrimp

We also ordered the grilled Andong salted mackerel set meal. One large whole mackerel arrived on the plate.

Ordering a grilled dish alongside the raw fish made it great for sharing different menu items as a family. It was a good lineup for a family meal in Yeoksam, where people who enjoy raw fish and people who want cooked fish can visit together.

We ordered the butter-grilled shrimp too. Several shrimp arrived lined up on one plate, and the presentation immediately caught my eye.

What I remember about Sokcho Ojingeo Eosijang Yeoksam Branch is its broad selection, from raw fish rice bowls and sushi to grilled fish and shrimp. That makes it worth considering for a family meal in Yeoksam or a meal with a larger group.
