🐙 A Southern-Style Seafood Feast by Dongmyo Station, Mokpo Nakji Maeul
Featured on Korean TV, Mokpo Nakji Maeul is a seafood restaurant at Dongmyo serving seasonal dishes of long-arm octopus, hamo (pike conger) and Spanish mackerel. We recommend it to guests who want to taste seafood in the style of Korea’s southern coast.
If you are exploring the Dongmyo flea market or Dongdaemun, we recommend a hearty seafood dinner at Mokpo Nakji Maeul, just a 2-minute walk from Exit 5 of Dongmyo Station.
The hamo course offers pike conger sashimi, shabu-shabu and a finishing fish porridge all in one. The bakssok yeonpo-tang, a clear and refreshing octopus soup with gourd pith, is a signature way to enjoy octopus.
Tender, rich Spanish mackerel sashimi is another draw, priced at market rate. With group seating, private rooms and hours until midnight, it suits family gatherings and evening get-togethers.
