4.0
(130 reviews)A 30-year Seongsu institution long counted among Seoul’s three classic houses. The trotters here are notable for having no off‑odor and for being deeply seasoned all the way through the skin and meat, so many diners skip dipping sauces. A mild sweetness keeps the dish from feeling greasy; eat it with the provided banchan like seasoned chives, kimchi and pickled radish for balance.
Local Tips
- •Signature jokbal with seasoned skin and meat — no extra sauce required
- •Comes with classic banchan (seasoned chives, kimchi, pickled radish) to cut the richness
- •Open daily noon–10pm with takeout; order Medium or Large to share
