Two orders of the ₩30,000 regular abalone course brought mussel soup, basic side dishes, abalone innard sauce, boiled octopus, abalone salad and jang, sashimi and butter-grilled abalone, all seasoned lightly enough to eat plain. The writer has been a regular for two years, with the portion size and quality unchanged — a reliable pick for a hearty, restorative meal in Yangsan. ## Good to know - **Regular abalone course**: ₩30,000 per person - **Order size**: Ordered for 2 people - **Course includes**: Mussel soup, basic side dishes (salad, silkworm pupae, sweet potato, etc.), abalone innard sauce, boiled octopus, abalone salad, abalone jang, abalone hoetguk (cold raw seafood soup), abalone sashimi, butter-grilled abalone - **Parking**: Dedicated lot right next door; fills up at lunch and dinner - **Ordering**: Tablet ordering at the table - **Address**: 1F, 30-17 Gachon-ro, Mulgeum-eup, Yangsan-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea (near Mulgeum Station) *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* Wando Sanghoe (완도상회) is the place to go in Yangsan for an abalone porridge feast — a restaurant that starts with abalone and ends with abalone! ![Full spread of Wando Sanghoe's abalone course meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-01-14rol-966.webp) If you're from Yangsan, you've probably been here at least once by now. In the past, if someone said "let's get a hearty meal," samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) was the first thing that came to mind — but these days, for people in Yangsan, the first restaurant that comes up is Wando Sanghoe. That's how well established this place is. I've been a steady regular here myself for the past two years. ## Location and parking at Wando Sanghoe ![Exterior and entrance of Wando Sanghoe near Mulgeum Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-02-1mszf-966.webp) It's located near Mulgeum Station, and there's a dedicated parking lot right next door, so parking is really convenient. That said, during lunch and dinner it gets so busy that the parking spaces fill right up! I went for an opening run, and by the time I left, the restaurant was full and the lot was packed too — just a heads up! ## Inside Wando Sanghoe's Mulgeum Station main branch and the menu ![Ocean-themed interior seating at Wando Sanghoe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-03-1somg-966.webp) ![Wando Sanghoe's menu board showing the abalone course lineup](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-04-1xjde-966.webp) It's set up like an old-school seafood stew restaurant. The interior has a strong ocean feel, and the course meals are shown in photos, which makes ordering a lot easier. You order via tablet, and most people order the abalone course. The course is plenty for lunch, and for dinner, a spicy seafood stew as a drinking snack would be great too! The regular abalone course is ₩30,000 per person, and that alone is filling enough, so we ordered two — one per person. ## What does the abalone course actually look like? ![Mussel soup and basic side dishes served at the start of the course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-05-plmrh-966.webp) It starts with mussel soup, followed by the basic side dishes — salad, silkworm pupae, sweet potato, and more. There's enough here to fill you up, but the main dishes are so good that if you have a small stomach, don't fill up on the sides! Trust me. ![Plate of basic side dishes including salad and silkworm pupae](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-06-87rmo-966.webp) ![Basic side dishes served early in the course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-07-49iy3-966.webp) ![Wando Sanghoe's basic side dishes including sweet potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-08-1emia-966.webp) ![Table set with the abalone course's basic spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-09-1d4q5-966.webp) ![A dish of sauce made from abalone innards](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-10-1qgda-966.webp) ![A plate of well-boiled octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-11-7ejmq-966.webp) ![An abalone dish from the course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-12-17ira-966.webp) ### Abalone innard sauce and boiled octopus There's a sauce made from abalone innards, which anyone who likes innards will love — I really enjoyed it myself! If you're the type who loves your Yangsan abalone porridge packed with innards, you'll definitely love Wando Sanghoe's abalone porridge. There's also tender boiled octopus. It's not chewy at all — clearly boiled just right. My son loves octopus so much... seeing this made me think of him again, haha. ![Abalone salad made with cooked abalone](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-13-1gzn1-966.webp) ![Wando Sanghoe's lightly seasoned abalone jang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-14-wbwrs-966.webp) ### Abalone salad and abalone jang There's also an abalone salad made with cooked abalone, and abalone jang (soy-marinated abalone). It would taste great with plain rice, but it's seasoned just right so it's delicious to eat on its own, without being too salty. ![Table fully spread with the abalone course meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-15-y10jq-1200.webp) ### Abalone hoetguk and abalone sashimi By the time the whole spread is laid out, the table is practically overflowing. A course where you can enjoy every type of abalone — hoetguk and sashimi! Honestly, even in Jeju Island you can't get this kind of food at this price. If ₩30,000 per person gets you this proper a restorative meal, I'd choose seafood over hot samgyetang any day, haha. ![Table setting with abalone hoetguk and abalone sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-16-15vk0-966.webp) There's something fun about the crunchy, springy bite of abalone sashimi, too. And as you chew it softly, the sesame oil meets that distinctive nutty flavor and releases a sweetness — that's the true taste of abalone! ![Abalone sashimi served with sesame oil](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-17-dr439-966.webp) ## Why I've been a regular for two years I originally went looking for Yangsan abalone porridge as a restorative meal, and when I found out they had a full course, I checked it out — and I was completely won over, becoming a regular for two years now at Wando Sanghoe. ![Close-up shot of Wando Sanghoe's abalone course dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-18-1mnmf-966.webp) ![The abalone course spread, unchanged after two years](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-19-1na9l-966.webp) The portion size and quality haven't changed a bit between two years ago and now — it's exactly the same as the first time, which is why it's one of the restaurants I trust for a hearty meal in Yangsan! And above all, the staff are all so kind, and maybe because so many older guests come here, everyone is bright and cheerful^^ ![A plate of Wando Sanghoe's butter-grilled abalone](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-20-rb62t-966.webp) ![Tender, well-grilled butter abalone](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-21-qnvwx-966.webp) ### Butter-grilled abalone Even if you make it exactly the same way at home, it never tastes quite like this — why is Wando Sanghoe's butter-grilled abalone so good? It's not chewy at all, just tender and easy to bite into, and it's one of the dishes that even older guests with sensitive teeth genuinely enjoy! ![An abalone dish served later in the course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-22-o451z-966.webp) ![Final dish of the hearty abalone course](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-23-1mjes-966.webp) ![The full spread of Wando Sanghoe's abalone course meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe/yangsan-abalone-course-wandosanghoe-24-1k5c5-966.webp) ## Visit tips When it comes to Yangsan abalone porridge, the place that comes to mind now is Wando Sanghoe's Mulgeum Station main branch!
