Outdoor BBQ dinner with corn snail miso soup in Naju: Chamsutjip

In short

Chamsutjip Naju Innovation City Branch is an outdoor-table Korean BBQ restaurant right in front of the central lake in Bitgaram-dong, Naju. The writer grilled seasoned pork ribs 2+1 (36,000 won) over charcoal while watching the sunset over the lake, and the complimentary corn snail miso soup was so good she finished two bowls of rice. Corkage is free for anything except soju, beer, and makgeolli sold in-store, so it's a solid pick if you're after that outdoor-dining mood.

Let me recommend a Korean BBQ restaurant in Naju Innovation City! It was seriously so good I'm already planning to go back!!!!!

Chamsutjip's hours

Daily 11:00–22:00

Chamsutjip, a great restaurant in Naju Innovation City, is open every single day!!! 👍 So you can drop by whenever~_~

The location is amazing too — it's right in front of the central lake in Naju Innovation City!!! Which means it has serious outdoor-dining energy!!! The weather's starting to warm up, so how about catching that outdoor BBQ vibe at this Naju spot~? hahaha

Parking and exterior

For parking, you can either park on the street across from Chamsutjip or use the building's underground lot!! We got lucky and found an open street spot, parked right away^^~!

Walking back toward the lake side from parking, Chamsutjip comes into view!!! Already plenty of customers soaking up the outdoor vibe haha

What's the inside like

Coat cabinet near the restaurant entrance

There's even a cabinet lol. For storing clothes?? We didn't use it, but if you hate your clothes soaking up grill smell, it'd be super useful!!

Chamsutjip's indoor hall packed with customers

This is what the indoor hall looks like, and it was completely packed!!! Definitely a popular BBQ spot in Naju Innovation City!

Charcoal arrives! And they bring a tray for the outdoor table too — super convenient and nice haha

The menu and the free-corkage conditions

Chamsutjip's menu board showing free corkage policy

Free corkage, right there in plain sight!!!!! Soju, beer, and makgeolli that the restaurant already sells are excluded from free corkage, but any other good drinks — free corkage~! Truly the best kind of restaurant haha. Before I was pregnant, my husband and I used to go around looking specifically for free-corkage places, and Chamsutjip, a great BBQ spot in Naju Innovation City, is one! Nice nice~!

Menu board listing meat dishes

For the meat, we went with the seasoned pork ribs hahaha. 2+1~ Two people can easily handle 3 servings, right!?

Wind, temperature, humidity, backdrop — all perfect haha. Am I right or am I right?

Pregnant, so I went with 0.00 zero-alcohol beer

Makgeolli with meat, lol lol lol — I got permission from the owner and bought a 0.00 zero-alcohol beer haha. Normally that's not allowed… since the restaurant already sells zero-alcohol beer..! But when I explained it needed to be exactly 0.00 because I'm pregnant, they let me! So grateful 💗🥹💗

Cheers! Even a pregnant person can join in~!

The complimentary corn snail miso soup

Here it is — corn snail miso soup!!!!!! This comes standard, and it's seriously a rice thief. First time I've ever eaten two bowls of rice at a BBQ restaurant lol. This miso soup was genuinely too delicious. They do lunch service too, so please go, please please please go eat this corn snail miso soup. Absolute rice thief, no joke.

Miso soup packed full of corn snails

Nom nom^^ Two of us finished 3 servings of meat, and the miso soup was so good we polished off two bowls of rice — dinner done^^ hahaha. Our little one is definitely going to grow up strong.. hahahahaha^^~

Overall verdict

Found dental floss when paying lol lol lol. Flossed properly and headed home feeling refreshed^^~ From start to finish it was so good! Especially that outdoor-dining feel — top notch. The meat was delicious too, but the complimentary corn snail miso soup — what even? So good it caught me off guard lol lol lol. Anyway, Chamsutjip, a great BBQ restaurant in Naju Innovation City — I'm definitely coming back!!
