Ogeunnae 2 Dakgalbi 오근내2닭갈비

Ogeunnae 2 Dakgalbi is a Michelin Bib Gourmand iron-plate chicken galbi restaurant and the second branch of the well-known Ogeunnae franchise, situated in the Yongsan restaurant alley. Like the original location, it uses exclusively thigh meat and a mildly sweet, gently spicy sauce that appeals to a broad range of palates. The hot plate arrives loaded with sweet potato, cabbage, perilla leaves, mushrooms, and rice cakes alongside the chicken, creating a generous mix of textures as the vegetables wilt down during cooking. Once the chicken is nearly done, chewy jjolmyeon or udon noodles go in, followed by fried rice to close the meal. The steamed egg side pairs neatly with soju, and additional banchan are available at a self-service station. Thanks to the tender thigh meat and clean flavor with no gamey notes, families with children can enjoy the dish without concern. The space is wider and more polished than the original branch, with large windows giving an open feel, though the noise level from iron-plate cooking across the room makes quiet conversation difficult. Aprons are provided to guard against oil splatter. Wait-list registration is handled through the Tabling app, and on weekends or holidays queues can grow long, with a two-hour dining limit enforced during busy periods. Last lunch order is at 2:30 PM, so timing is important. Parking is tight, making public transit the better option. Per-serving prices run roughly 1.5 times higher than chain dakgalbi restaurants, but portions are generously sized.
