🇰🇷 Visited 11/12/2023 rainy wet Monday Afternoon. The following sharing are based on our unbiased personal opinion and experience. We heard a lot about the black pork street and wanted to try it ourselves. We manage to park our cars and stroll along the street for a good restaurant. We noticed almost all the restaurants in black pork street don't equip with the exhaust fan system. Which also means they're not serving their dishes in charcoals. We settled for this restaurant at the start of the street which has more patrons. Settled down with a table for 06 pax. Ordered our food and shortly after food was served. We ordered their signature black pork set. The side dishes were served and the bean sprouts with spring onion was good. The seaweed was also delicious. The black pork was cooked over open flame 🔥 and on a plate. The plate was placed tilted to allowed excess oils to flow down to a container. The store owners was serving us and cooking our pork over the plate. As compared to the charcoal grill this lose out significantly in term of taste. Nevertheless this also has its own flavor and taste. Overall 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ for the services and food qualify.

A visit to Jeju is never complete if you don't eat the black pork. I heard about this place as it is rather popular, but there is some confusion here because they have posters saying they are Michelin but it's not in the Michelin guide whether it's a star or a Bib Gourmand. Nevertheless the food here is pretty good. I ordered the special basic set and the boss thought I wouldn't be able to finish it as it is usually meant for 2, but I managed to clean up everything on the table. A nice selection of banchan, and there is no need to cook as the staff will go around tables cooking for the diners. They made sure the meat is not overcooked they would turn off the stove when it's done. Loved the combination of the black pork and the banchan that came together. It tasted very good with all different kinds of combinations wrapped together with the vegetable. The boiled pork was surprisingly delightful and I enjoyed it a lot with the sauce provided. Turned out to be a pretty good meal and it's only 56,000 won for 2 which was quite reasonable. It's just right beside the Black Pork street sign and very easy to locate. Recommended.

Dining Experience @ Dombedon (돔베돈). . The only reason this review is being posted, is as a warning. . Misinformation online states that Dombedon (돔베돈) is a Michelin starred restaurant - it is not. Dombedon received a mention in the Michelin Guide 2011, but have no star nor bib gourmand award. . This doesn't surface properly through a cursory internet search however, which is why we ended up visiting and wasting our time and calories. . The hype around this place results in misinformed tourists eating here, in turn leading to premium pricing for what is average quality food at best. And certainly worse service than elsewhere - staff didn't bother explaining any dish, or showing diners how best to pair the ingredients. . Portion sizes of sides and accompanying dishes are smaller than elsewhere. We only had about 7 pieces of grilled pork each. Was so unsatisfied and hungry afterwards.

I would give this place 6 stars if it was possible. Each time I come to Jeju, I would eat at this place twice. The black pork is just so succulent and tasty and the oil from the fats just runs clear. The service can definitely improved but I am here for the food. I been to other black pork restaurants in Jeju and they are just different. Particularly the black pork restaurants that grill the meats with charcoal fire and a wire mesh; the pork just cook too fast and get burnt fast. At this restaurant, the pork is grilled using a cast iron pan and the meats are so tender cos of the measured heat of the cast iron; I use cast iron grill at home too. Do remember to tell the servers that you want to have the kimchi fried rice and do remember to keep some of the pork for them to fry into the rice.

One of the lousiest bbq restaurant I have been to. Limited menu. They attempt to cook for u but badly cooked. Claimed to be nice and other reviews raved about this restaurant but the entire experience was way below average. Other than the bean paste stew, steamed egg, rice, lettuce and soft drinks that are acceptable, the pork was very bad. Lousy quality for both the bbq and the boiled pork. It’s been a long time since I visited a bbq shop in Korea that is this bad. The food actually looked good but when you eat it, u will know why I could not even finish the pork they served! They just gave off the vibe that they are there to scam tourists and non locals! Do avoid this shop. Not good at all.

We went for a late night walk and came across this restaurant. It is open until midnight, which suited us. It is comfortable without being excessive. The tables could be a little bit bigger to accommodate the vast amount of plates and dishes and drinks. The coke comes in original glas bottles and is perfectly cooled. It's great. So is the beer. Food wise obviously this place only serves pork. We just ordered the menu for 2 people and really enjoyed the various pork dishes. The waiter cooked for us to ensure we didn't mess up the temperature of the meat. The total price came to WON 50,000.- which we thought was more than reasonable. Thumbs up and thanks for a great night meal.
