ABOUT
Yukhoe Jamaejip Jongno 3rd Branch is a Korean beef restaurant near Gwangjang Market, serving yukhoe, Korean-style raw beef tartare, alongside beef sashimi and other beef dishes. The restaurant belongs to the long-running Yukhoe Jamaejip name, which is associated with Gwangjang Market’s raw beef dining scene and dates its establishment to 1974. The menu goes beyond a basic plate of yukhoe. Guests can order yukhoe with live octopus, a combination known as yuktang-i, or pair the beef with sea snail. Other options include yukhoe bibimbap, beef rice bowls, pan-fried beef, and beef liver with honeycomb tripe. A beef radish soup is also described in visitor accounts as part of the meal. Located on Jong-ro, the third branch provides an alternative to the busy market-side branches. Its location close to Jongno 5-ga Station makes it convenient for visitors exploring Gwangjang Market and the surrounding traditional shopping streets. It is a casual, lively Korean dining stop rather than a quiet or formal restaurant.
WHAT LOCALS SAY
Across the available review summaries, the most repeated positive comments concern the taste of the food, the quality and freshness of the beef, and friendly staff. One review aggregator records 73 reviews, with taste-related praise appearing most frequently; freshness, generous portions, and yukhoe bibimbap are also mentioned. These are recurring themes in the available reviews, not a guarantee of every visit. Yukhoe and yukhoe bibimbap are the dishes most consistently mentioned in visitor content. The combination of raw beef with pear, vegetables, and seasoning is a familiar Korean-style preparation, while the rice-bowl options provide a simpler meal for visitors who do not want to order a large shared platter. Reviews also mention the beef soup served with the meal. The branch is described as convenient when the nearby market restaurants are crowded, and some visitors report being seated without a long wait. However, other reviews mention waiting and an occasionally busy or noisy dining environment. The overall experience is best understood as a popular, casual market-area restaurant with a lively atmosphere rather than a guaranteed quick or quiet meal.
