## In short

Usijang Hoegwan is a beef restaurant in Dohwa-dong, Seoul, a 3-minute walk from Exit 3 of Mapo Station. Two diners ordered the No.9 hanwoo perilla-leaf yuksashimi (raw beef sashimi and tartare) plus flower rib soup, working through chewy raw beef sashimi, egg-yolk-mixed yukhoe, and a rib soup topped with two large short ribs as both drinking food and a full meal. With grilled cuts, sashimi, soups and boiled meat all on the menu, it's a solid pick for a Mapo Station group dinner from first round to last.

I had a get-together coming up in Mapo recently and was trying to figure out what to eat, when I remembered a great restaurant near Mapo Station I'd tried — so let me introduce it.

If you're looking for a Mapo Station group dinner spot or a place that does raw beef sashimi well, here's my review of Usijang Hoegwan (우시장회관)!

## The scene and seating at 7pm

We arrived around 7pm and I was genuinely surprised the moment we walked in — almost every table was packed with customers! It confirmed we'd picked the right place.

The restaurant has a spacious layout with about 50 seats, so it's also a good choice for a group dinner near Gongdeok or Mapo Station.

On one wall, a framed "Owner's Pledge" is displayed with real care, and it gave off a sense of confidence and pride in the food.

You order through a tablet at each table, and there's a review event running too — might be worth joining.

## What's on the Usijang Hoegwan menu

It's a beef specialist, but the menu at this Mapo location of Usijang Hoegwan is surprisingly varied.

- [Grilled] Top-value raw short rib & mixed platter
- [Sliced] Hanwoo 1++ No.9 raw beef sashimi & tartare
- [Simmered] 12-hour deep-flavored rice soup & stews
- [Boiled] The ultimate soju side dish, mixed boiled meat

Beef, raw beef sashimi, soup, boiled meat — quite a diverse lineup.

For the beef itself, you can get top-grade chilled raw short rib at an amazing ₩5,980 per 100g.

The premium ggurit-sal (a chewy cut of beef) raw beef sashimi, from cows raised in Gangwon-do's clean regions, is also one of Usijang Hoegwan's signature dishes.

On the soup side, there's Naju-style clear gomtang simmered for 12 hours, king rib soup, and beef tripe soup, among others — with clam-beef rice soup ranked as the best seller.

Worth noting: it's open from 10am to 10pm, so this Mapo Station restaurant also works for lunch. There's a solo hanwoo 1++ set (raw beef sashimi + rice soup) too, which is a great value option for solo diners.

## What we ordered as a table for two

We ordered yukhoesimi (raw beef sashimi + tartare) and flower rib soup for the two of us. When the full spread arrived and covered the table, I let out an involuntary gasp.

Just looking at how carefully everything was arranged made my mouth water.

The various side dishes and sauces that come with the raw beef sashimi and tartare.

![Napa cabbage kimchi, diced radish kimchi, and silbi kimchi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang-13-yxtl1-966.webp)

Napa cabbage kimchi and diced radish kimchi are served so you can help yourself, and there's also silbi kimchi (a spicier variety) for anyone who likes heat.

## The 1++ No.9 ggurit-sal perilla-leaf raw beef sashimi and tartare

![A plate of 1++ No.9 ggurit-sal perilla-leaf raw beef sashimi and tartare](https://img.superchart.com/images/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang-14-1n4mb-966.webp)

Let's take a look at the first main dish, yukhoesimi. It's a menu that lets you enjoy hanwoo raw beef sashimi and tartare together, and the freshness was incredible — apparently they follow a same-day slaughter, same-day prep principle.

![Generously sliced hanwoo raw beef sashimi](https://img.superchart.com/images/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang-15-n6jte-966.webp)

What stood out was how generously sized each piece of raw beef sashimi was — great for a satisfying chew.

Once in your mouth, you get a chewy bite followed by a melt-away finish.

The hanwoo tartare in the center is mixed evenly after popping an egg yolk over it.

Taking a big bite, the richness of the yolk met the chewy tartare for an explosion of savory flavor.

It's the kind of flavor that clings to your palate — the perfect side dish to have the soju flowing right from the first round.

## How was the flower rib soup?

![A bowl of Usijang Hoegwan's flower rib soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang-18-1y36e-966.webp)

Personally, I always like having a soup dish on hand when drinking. Since this was our first-round spot, I wanted something soup-based that could also double as a solid meal — hence the flower rib soup.

![Rib soup topped with two large king short ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang/usijang-hoegwan-mapo-yukhoesimi-galbitang-19-1fmlo-966.webp)

A large bowl arrives topped with two big king short ribs.

Using scissors and tongs to pull the meat off, the ribs were so tender it slid right off the bone, which I loved.

The rib soup with the meat cut into bite-size pieces. Once we picked apart both ribs, there was more meat than we expected, and the broth was loaded with rice, glass noodles, and scallions.

Taking a big spoonful, the meat wasn't tough at all — soft and tender to chew — and this really was both a filling meal and a great drinking companion.

### The best way to eat the perilla-leaf raw beef sashimi

Since it's called perilla-leaf yukhoesimi, here's the best combination: place a sheet of gim (seaweed) on a perilla leaf, then add raw beef sashimi, tartare, wasabi, and radish sprouts — that's the winning combo!

And that's how we finished a genuinely delicious meal at Usijang Hoegwan, a go-to spot for raw beef sashimi near Mapo Station.

## Final thoughts

With grilled cuts, raw beef sashimi, soups, and boiled meat all on offer, Usijang Hoegwan feels like a Mapo Station restaurant that works for a first, second, or even third round. The owner and staff were all kind, and the atmosphere had just the right amount of noise — lively enough, but still easy to hold a conversation over dinner. A place I'd like to come back to just for the beef next time!

If you're looking for a Mapo Station restaurant to enjoy good food with a satisfying drink, this could be the one to try.
