Yeongjong seafood jjim with kalguksu noodles at 300°C Seafood Galbi

What is weekday lunch like at 300°C Seafood Galbi in Yeongjong?

I stopped by 300°C Seafood Galbi Main Branch (300도씨해물갈비 본점) in Yeongjong for a weekday lunch, haha. It's a place where you can have seafood, meat and even kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) all in one hearty meal, so I came in with high hopes.

Even though it was weekday lunchtime, there were quite a lot of customers, lol. Somehow everyone always knows where the good places are!

I could park right in front of the restaurant, so it was easy to just pull in and walk inside.

Clean, tidy dining room at 300°C Seafood Galbi

Inside 300°C Seafood Galbi, the place was much cleaner than I expected. The tables were neatly arranged and the whole space felt well kept! Even on a weekday lunch there were plenty of diners, which made me even more excited, haha.

What we ordered at 300°C Seafood Galbi: the ₩49,000 set for 2

I ordered the cuttlefish stir-fry + black pork cutlet + kalguksu set for 2 at ₩49,000. I went back and forth over the menu: I wanted seafood, I wanted a pork cutlet, and I couldn't give up kalguksu either, so I went with the set! The best thing about a set is being able to taste lots of dishes at once, lol.

There's also a self bar on one side. You can grab side dishes and extras yourself, which is handy.

After a short wait, today's spread arrived! Wow, lol, it was way more generous than I expected. From the cuttlefish seafood jjim (steamed spicy seafood) to the cutlet and the seafood kalguksu, the table was completely full, and just looking at it was reassuring.

How does the cuttlefish seafood jjim sauce taste?

The sauce on the cuttlefish seafood jjim at 300°C Seafood Galbi was really good. It was the first thing my chopsticks went for! It looks appetizing, haha, with the red stir-fried sauce coating the cuttlefish and seafood evenly.

One bite and, yep! Above all, the sauce was great. It wasn't just spicy; it had soaked well into the ingredients, so I kept reaching for more. Dipping the cuttlefish and seafood in plenty of sauce made me want a bowl of rice, lol. Personally, I really loved this sauce.

Tossing kalguksu noodles in the seafood jjim sauce

Later I tossed some of the kalguksu noodles in the cuttlefish seafood jjim sauce, and that was a real treat too!

The sauce clung to the noodles and added so much savory depth. So delicious.

How many pieces of black pork cutlet come with the set?

The black pork cutlet in the set came as 4 pieces in total. Can't skip the black pork cutlet, right?

When I cut into it, the cross-section showed the cutlet packed full of meat. It's not one of those cutlets with only a thick coating; there was plenty of meat inside, which I liked.

How do you cook and eat the seafood kalguksu?

The seafood kalguksu at 300°C Seafood Galbi is eaten by putting separately served fresh noodles into a broth full of seafood and vegetables and boiling them. And this seafood kalguksu is the last dish I'll introduce!

The kalguksu isn't plain either; it was generously loaded with seafood and vegetables.

The noodles in particular are fresh ones served separately. You just drop them into the broth and let them bubble away.

The broth, infused with seafood and vegetables, was light yet refreshing! After the spicy cuttlefish seafood jjim, a sip of the kalguksu broth left my mouth feeling clean.

I really enjoyed the light, refreshing seafood kalguksu!

Is 300°C Seafood Galbi a good hearty lunch near Yeongjong, Eurwangni and Club 72?

At 300°C Seafood Galbi Main Branch I happily polished off everything from the cuttlefish seafood jjim to the black pork cutlet and seafood kalguksu, haha. The best part was getting so many dishes from one set, and the food was generous overall, so it made for a filling lunch.

If you're looking for a Korean restaurant in Yeongjong, a hearty spread like this seems like a good choice. I'd also recommend it for anyone looking for a place to eat near Inspire, or around Eurwangni. People searching for restaurants near Club 72 may want to keep it in mind too. The menu lineup also works well for a solid meal before or after a round of golf. If you're craving seafood jjim or kalguksu near Club 72, it's worth a visit, haha.

The owner was friendly too, so I felt good the whole meal. Tasty food, a clean restaurant and easy parking made it a satisfying visit overall! Next time I'm in Yeongjong I want to come back, and next time I'll try other dishes, lol. If you're after a hearty meal in Yeongjong, I recommend 300°C Seafood Galbi Main Branch!
