🏅 Blue Ribbon–Selected Beef-Broth Noodles in Mugyo-dong: Gomguksi-jip

We confidently recommend Gomguksi-jip, a long-standing noodle house in Mugyo-dong selected by the Blue Ribbon Survey, for anyone who wants to taste noodles in rich Korean beef broth and tender boiled beef.

If you are staying around City Hall or Gwanghwamun, we recommend Gomguksi-jip on Mugyo-ro for a hearty lunch or dinner with companions.

The signature gomguksu serves noodles and beef in a long-simmered Korean beef broth with a deep, rich flavor; despite the name, noodles rather than gomtang are the star here.

The spicy noodle hot pot, simmered with beef and noodles, and boiled beef served with ssamjang and green chili are also popular, along with grilled ribeye and brisket.
