Jongno Gyerim Dakdoritang Wangsimni Branch

ABOUT

Jongno Gyerim Dakdoritang is a Korean restaurant brand known for its signature garlic-rich dakdoritang, a spicy braised chicken stew cooked in a flavorful broth. The brand originated in Jongno, Seoul, and has become known for its distinctive approach to this much-loved Korean comfort food. Rather than serving a dry, heavily reduced sauce, the dish features a generous amount of garlic and a spicy broth that allows the chicken and vegetables to simmer together, creating a hearty and satisfying meal. The restaurant is a good option for visitors who want to experience a traditional Korean chicken dish with bold flavors. Dakdoritang is commonly shared around the table, making it suitable for meals with family, friends, or colleagues. Diners can enjoy the stew on its own or add ramen noodles to the broth for an extra filling finish. The Wangsimni branch has recently moved to a new location on Majang-ro in Seongdong-gu. As the relocation is very recent, some online information may still reflect the restaurant's previous location.
