Jeju Special House Hongdae
제주특별집 홍대점 · Korean BBQ
ABOUT
Jeju Special House is a Korean BBQ restaurant specializing in aged Jeju pork. The restaurant says its pork is aged for more than 240 hours before being grilled over charcoal. Its signature Jeju Special Set (500g) combines several cuts, including pork jowl, neck-side meat, pork cheek, pork belly and other specialty cuts, making it a convenient way to compare different textures in one meal. The restaurant is located about an 8-minute walk from Hongik University Station and stays open until 3 a.m., making it particularly suitable for late-night meals around Hongdae. Staff grill the meat for guests, and the menu is available in Korean, English, Japanese and Chinese. The restaurant has no dedicated parking, so public transportation is the practical choice.
WHAT LOCALS SAY
Reviews frequently mention tender, juicy pork and the convenience of having staff explain the different cuts and grill them for guests. The set menu is particularly useful for first-time visitors because it lets diners compare several Jeju pork cuts rather than ordering only one familiar cut such as samgyeopsal or pork neck. The side dishes are also a recurring part of the experience, with lettuce and other vegetables, kimchi, pickled onions and dipping sauces served alongside the meat. Some reviews particularly mention the anchovy-based dipping sauce and recommend grilling kimchi together with the pork. The restaurant is described as clean and lively, with friendly service and a significant number of foreign visitors.
