Yakiniku is a yakiniku where you can enjoy a small amount of happiness, just like the main character in a Japanese drama where you put one or two pieces of beef on top of the grill in a small personalized style. Yakiniku, which began when the Korean culture of grilled meat spread to Japan, is famous for putting a little bit of Japanese yakiniku sauce called âtaraeâ on raw meat and grilling it right away, but it also refers to Japanese yakiniku in general. Here are some yakiniku restaurants in Seoul that will make us âlonely but happy foodies.â
1. Cheongdam's âten yakinikuâ is fun to watch

A new restaurant launched by ICHI CORPORATION, which operates cement Seoul and TAK. The interior, which is centered around black and white, emphasizes both luxurious and oriental beauty. It's fun to see food delivered by rail, just like a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. Beef tongue, which has an impressive chewy yet crunchy texture, is a must-try part. In addition, they also have a variety of meal menus, such as curry and bibim-myeon.

Ryuma, located near Seongrung Station, is a restaurant that recreates local yakiniku flavors based on Japanese experience. The interior, which is inspired by a small Japanese house, makes you feel like you've traveled to Japan. The set where you can enjoy sirloin, tenderloin, and rib yakiniku with 3 types of special cuts called âhormonesâ is popular. The dinner course, where you can enjoy all the menus in small portions, is also worth recommending.

â²Review (Shikigami Choco Pie lol): I like the atmosphere of a Japanese yakiniku restaurant. I recommend a 3-piece hormone set for sirloin, tenderloin, and ribs. If you put yakiniku on each cup of highball, grill them, and eat them, this is Japan!

This grilled Korean beef specialty store is so famous that there are reviews that they have successfully entered after several hundred phone calls. The price is reasonable compared to the quality of the meat, and they sell a variety of special parts of Korean beef, including beef tongue. The menu that is addictive is yakiniku-style grilling called âcondiments.â Put a little bit of green onion sauce on the tip of the thinly trimmed sirloin or sirloin. Cup noodles and fried rice, which you enjoy as a finishing touch, are also delicious.

4. Relax with yakiniku in a nostalgic space, Cheongdam âYakiniku 22â

A small restaurant located in the middle of an alley in Cheongdam-dong. The Japanese-style interior has a simple feel, and you can enjoy your meal in a relaxed atmosphere. The signature menu is a set that includes 6 types of meat, daichang nabe, yukhoe, garlic rice with mentaiko, and grilled vegetables. If charcoal with good thermal power comes out of a small round brazier, you can eat the prepared meat by putting it up one or two pieces at a time. Overall, it has a light seasoning flavor and a good balance that doesn't impair the natural flavor of the meat.

An up-and-coming hot spot on Songridan-gil. The small space is in the shape of a bar, so it's a great structure to sit side by side with nice people, have a cup of highball, and talk about Dorando. Beef or chicken can be grilled in a small brazier, and I am satisfied that the vegetables with a good variety of recipes, such as mushrooms, pineapples, shishito peppers, and garlic are provided as a basis. It is recommended to eat the meat in the following order: tenderloin, ribs, and sirloin.
