This is a Korean restaurant specializing in yukgaejang (spicy beef soup) on Friendship Highway in Angeles' Koreatown (Anunas), serving seolleongtang (ox bone soup), milmyeon (cold wheat noodles), bossam (boiled pork wraps), and tonkatsu (pork cutlet) with yukgaejang as the centerpiece. According to a 2019 blog post, it first operated next to Jongno Pharmacy and then moved to its current location, adding more tables in the dining hall. In a post the restaurant itself put up in 2026, it says it has been making yukgaejang in Angeles for 10 years.
The yukgaejang broth leans spicy rather than cooling. It has plenty of green onions, so it tastes clean and refreshing, and many reviews say the taste has stayed the same over the years. Several reviews say the basic side dishes, such as kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), geotjeori (fresh kimchi), and eomuk jorim (braised fish cakes), are tasty too, and one review says the sides get refilled. Many reviews say the interior, set up with wooden tables, is kept clean and the staff are friendly. The dining hall is spacious and has a separate area for groups, so it works fine for going with a big party. One review from 2025 said the yukgaejang seemed like it was made from a meal kit and had little in the way of ingredients. A review from November 2026 says the owner has increased the amount of meat.
The most recommended item is the signature yukgaejang, and one review says you can choose the spice level between regular and spicy. The non-spicy seolleongtang is described as having a deep-flavored broth. Several reviews say the milmyeon is close to the authentic taste of Busan, and the restaurant also says it makes it in the style of Busan's Gaya Milmyeon. One review also recommends having dumplings with the milmyeon broth as a hangover cure the morning after drinking. The tonkatsu comes with hash browns, and the portion is described as generous. However, one review says the rice served with it was small, so they ordered an extra bowl of rice. Prices are ₱470 for yukgaejang and yukgaejang kalguksu (knife-cut noodles), ₱520 for budae-spam yukgaejang (₱530 for the spicy version), and ₱550 for hwangtae seolleongtang (dried pollock ox bone soup). Yukgaejang jeongol (hot pot) is ₱1,050, budae jeongol is ₱1,850, and meat dumplings are ₱350, and one review notes that prices aren't cheap since it's a tourist area.
