Over a weekend lunch we ordered one chuck flap basic table set (180g, 18,900 won) and one top blade basic table set (180g, 27,900 won) to compare the two cuts, and the chuck flap was softer while the top blade was chewier. Each set arrives as a full table with corn soup, kimchi, plum tea and soft-boiled egg rice, so Seoreojeong is a place worth returning to for a date. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1F, 30-17 Munji-ro 316beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon - **Hours**: Mon–Sat 11:00–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Last order**: 20:15 - **Closed**: Every Sunday - **Parking**: In front of the restaurant and along the roadside - **Chuck flap basic table set 180g**: 18,900 won - **Top blade basic table set 180g**: 27,900 won - **Steak portion**: 180g standard, 300g also available - **Seating**: Mostly tables for four - **Price reference**: ₩18,900 ≈ $13.5 · ₩27,900 ≈ $20 (2026-09-21) *as written by the visitor on Sep 20, 2026* Today I visited Seoreojeong Munji Branch (설어정 문지점), a steak restaurant in Munji-dong, Daejeon! Even though it's a steak place, the prices were reasonable, the sets were generous, and the meat was so good — let me introduce it. ![Exterior of Seoreojeong Munji Branch in Munji-dong, Daejeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-01-13d8z-900.webp) ## Seoreojeong Munji Branch: location, hours and parking - Address: 30-17 Munji-ro 316beon-gil, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, South Korea - Hours: Mon–Sat 11:00–21:00 - Break time 15:00–17:00 - Last order 20:15 - Closed every Sunday - Roadside parking available - Parking available in front of the restaurant ![Entrance of Seoreojeong Munji Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-02-1r5ub-900.webp) ![Wood-toned interior of Seoreojeong Munji Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-03-7g5dr-900.webp) ## Inside Seoreojeong: wood-toned dining room and self-serve bar The restaurant had a warm wood-toned atmosphere, and most tables seemed to seat four. I visited around weekend lunchtime and there were quite a few customers — a lot of them looked like families out for a meal. At the self-serve bar you could grab your own water, and there was salt and pepper you could take too. ![Self-serve bar with water, salt and pepper](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-04-nqkg3-900.webp) ## What is on the menu at Seoreojeong Munji Branch? There were also set menus — combinations like top blade + curry pork cutlet, top blade + chuck flap, top blade + chop, and top blade + top blade, all coming with mini udon, fries, and ade. The set combos looked really good too. ![Set menu signage at Seoreojeong Munji Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-05-yhbxk-900.webp) There were three steak cuts — chuck flap, top blade, and chop — with 180g as the basic size and 300g available if you order up. There was also a mini udon set. For pasta, there was aglio olio, rosé pasta, basil tomato pasta, tomato hangover-soup pasta, bacon cream pasta, and pollock roe perilla oil pasta. With so many pasta options, ordering one steak and one pasta to share also seemed like a great idea. ![Menu board listing steaks and pastas](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-06-hruic-900.webp) There was also fried tofu udon, beef curry, and curry pork cutlet. Beer and wine were on the menu too. ![Menu board listing udon, curry, and drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-07-1par9-900.webp) ### Review event perks at Seoreojeong If you take part in the Naver receipt review event, they give you wedge fries plus a canned beer, or a glass of ade — grapefruit or green grape flavor. Definitely worth trying the Naver receipt review event, haha. If you order steak, joining the review event also gets you chilled buckwheat soba. ![Sign about the Naver receipt review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-08-5h2q0-900.webp) ## Chuck flap and top blade table sets: prices and what comes with them The chuck flap steak basic table set 180g is ₩18,900, and the top blade steak basic table set 180g is ₩27,900. ![Sign showing chuck flap and top blade prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-09-14lky-900.webp) ![Table set before ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-10-8ndez-900.webp) Since I wanted to try different cuts, I ordered chuck flap and top blade, one of each. Each was 180g, which turned out to be just the right amount for one person — filling but not too much. Along with the steak, corn soup, kimchi, plum tea, sauce, wasabi, and rice all came out too. The table filled up nicely with such a neat, generous spread. It felt clean and put-together — perfect for a date too. ![Table full of the steak table set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-11-tujuy-1200.webp) Time to dig in! ![Two plates of chuck flap and top blade as a table set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-12-fht5s-900.webp) ## How does the 180g top blade steak taste? Here's the top blade steak basic table set 180g. ![Top blade steak basic table set 180g plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-13-18gfz-900.webp) The piece of meat was big and thick. It came cooked just right, and it was already seasoned well enough that you didn't even need to dip it in sauce — it was that tasty on its own. You could still dip it in salt, pepper, or a soy-based sauce if you wanted. ![Side dishes with plum tea, sauce, and wasabi](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-14-1etcp-900.webp) On the far left was plum tea, which was great to sip as a palate cleanser after finishing the steak. I thought it was such a thoughtful touch to include plum tea for that. Eating it with rice and kimchi, and topping the meat with wasabi, was perfect! ![Steak table set with rice and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-15-1ocis-900.webp) The knife shape was unusual — unlike the knives at most other steak places, it looked almost like a saw, which I found interesting. ![Unusual saw-like steak knife](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-16-1tf7q-900.webp) The corn soup was smooth too, and tasty even with pepper sprinkled on top. ![Bowl of corn soup sprinkled with pepper](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-17-1i5xa-900.webp) ![Cross-section of sliced top blade steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-18-1mnbm-900.webp) The meat was really so tender and delicious. Compared to the chewiness of the chuck flap, the top blade felt even chewier. It came with sauce on it already, and it tasted even better eaten together with the cooked onions in sauce. ![A bite of steak topped with cooked onions in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-19-oxrq3-900.webp) ![Steak and onions coated in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-20-zr5y5-900.webp) The rice even came topped with a soft-boiled egg, so good that you could eat just the egg and rice alone and it'd still be delicious. Mix in the onions and sauce too, and you'll polish off a whole bowl of rice in no time! ![Bowl of rice topped with a soft-boiled egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-21-x8pqh-900.webp) ## How the chuck flap differed from the top blade This one was the chuck flap, and it was just as delicious as the top blade, haha. ![Chuck flap steak basic table set 180g](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-22-1t3od-900.webp) Look how big the piece of meat is. ![Thick slices of chuck flap steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-23-88mer-900.webp) ![A tender bite of well-cooked chuck flap steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak/seoleojeong-munji-sirloin-flank-steak-24-rzu80-m-900.webp) It was much more tender than the top blade, and at around ₩18,900, I thought the price was really reasonable too. The quality was great, so I'd love to come back for it again.
