The Instagram Famous Restaurant, Visited in Person!

There was a restaurant near Sinnonhyeon that I couldn't resist checking out because I kept seeing it on Instagram. It's a Japanese place called 'Kyokoko,' and my friend kept insisting we go, so we finally visited on a Saturday evening.

Exterior of Kyokoko Sinnonhyeon Branch

It's really close to Exit 6 of Sinnonhyeon Station, so it was easy to find. It's located on the basement level, and the sign is subtly beautiful, making it stand out even if you're just passing by.

Japanese Vibes Galore! A Cozy Interior

Interior Atmosphere of Kyokoko

Once inside, it really felt like I was in a ramen shop in Japan! The Japanese posters on the walls and the overall interior were so pretty. There was a bit of a wait when we went, but it seemed to be because it was a Saturday evening.

The seating wasn't very spacious, but it wasn't uncomfortable either. The open kitchen allowed us to watch the cooking process, which was fun.

Finally Ordered! The Fun of Choosing a Menu

The menu was more diverse than I expected, so it took a while to decide. They offered ramen, mazesoba, rice bowls, and hamburg steak, among other things. The prices were reasonable for Gangnam.

After much deliberation, we ordered the signature Charcoal Grilled Hamburg Steak, Mentaiko Mazesoba, and Shiotori Ramen. The portions were perfect for sharing with a friend!

Time for the Foodie Feast! πŸ”₯

Charcoal Grilled Hamburg Steak

Charcoal Grilled Hamburg Steak - The Fun of Grilling Yourself!

The presentation was amazing! You grill it yourself on a brazier, and the aroma from the melting butter was mouthwatering. They said it's made with a mix of beef short ribs and sirloin, and the juiciness was incredible.

At first, I wasn't sure how to grill it, but the staff kindly explained, so I was able to cook it perfectly. I grilled it to medium, and it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, melting in my mouth!

Mentaiko Mazesoba

Mentaiko Mazesoba - That Addictive Taste!

It's no exaggeration to say I came here for this! It was topped with plenty of mentaiko, and when mixed with the noodles, the salty flavor was unforgettable. The portion was larger than expected, making it great value for money.

The popping texture of the mentaiko went perfectly with the noodles, and it wasn't fishy at all, so even those trying mentaiko for the first time would enjoy it.

Shiotori Ramen

Shiotori Ramen - Rich Chicken Broth

The chicken broth is said to be simmered for 12 hours, and it was rich yet clean. The grilled chicken that came with it added a nice chewiness. The ramen noodles were chewy and paired well with the broth.

I thought it might be greasy, but it wasn't at all, and it was so delicious that I could drink every last drop!

Honest Overall Review

Pros:

  • The fun and delicious experience of grilling your own hamburg steak
  • The interior lets you fully experience the atmosphere of Japan
  • Great value for money considering it's in Gangnam
  • The staff were friendly and provided good explanations

Cons:

  • There was a bit of a wait, so you might have to wait
  • The seating isn't spacious, so it might be inconvenient with large bags
  • The ventilation isn't perfect, so your clothes might pick up a slight smell

Would I Visit Again?

Definitely YES! I want to try other menu items next time. I've heard the Buttered Short Ribs are amazing, so I'm definitely going to try that too.

It's a great place for gatherings with friends or for a date. The atmosphere is nice, and the food is delicious, so the satisfaction level is high!
