I tried the typical chicken soup.... Conclusion: very special 🤔... but who is on slightly slippery soup with cooked chicken skin and low-salt diet will inspire the soup 😉
The "grilled chicken" what was touted as the best in town by a nice regular customer in front of the store was then unfortunately much too dry for our taste

Comforting large pot of ginseng chicken soup. We got a half piece of ginseng in the soup and soup was topped with ginseng roots. No ginseng wine unlike the gobong Samgyetang restaurant further up. Roast chicken rather dry especially the breast meat but tasty.

Nice warm food in Winter ☺

They saved us from 0 degree weather.

Beautiful tender chicken in both roasted and boiled.

Good to try something different chicken.

The wild ginseng chicken soup is delicious, with glutinous rice stuffed inside the chicken so you eat it like porridge. Also tried the roast chicken which was tender and the skin very crispy. Great spot in Myeong-Dong!

Above average ginseng chicken and soup, efficient service and allows sharing, unlike some ginseng chicken restaurants. Great value for money.

The ginseng chicken soup was tasty and it was a hearty and warm meal after a long and cold day in Seoul! The soup wasn’t bland and I could taste the ginseng in the soup 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Definitely a must go place if you are in Myeongdong!!

Samgyetang lovers this IS the place.
BEATS the other place that was reviewed to be Seouls best.
I personally think this is the best place for ginseng chicken soup.
their broth are tasty and clear, not think and chunky.
their rice inside the chicken is tasteful and infused with the herbs a d ginseng. not porridge style like other places.

lots of their customers are old Korean folks. if you see a resto that has old local people, means it's authentic and the real deal.

my number one choice for samgyetang.

they also sell tons of roasted chicken.
I didnt try it but looks great too.
