Our Story

CHAPTER · 01

A corporate chairman’s mansion.

We kept the grandeur of the mansion that once belonged to a corporate chairman. A spacious hall and unmistakably Korean atmosphere lend quiet dignity to a single bowl of kalguksu.

CHAPTER · 02

Straight from the sea.

Fresh clams delivered each morning and octopus — ‘the ginseng of the sea’ — form our broth. That is the secret behind a soup at once clean and boldly spicy.

CHAPTER · 03

K-food that wins over the world.

We share the appeal of Korean spice and tradition with every visitor to Anguk — which is why food lovers from Japan and beyond keep coming back.

The store has a very clean and well-designed layout with a modern Korean style that feels comfortable and welcoming. My friends and I arrived right at opening time and were lucky enough to get seats immediately—within just 10 minutes after we sat down, the restaurant was already full, which says a lot about its popularity. The food portions are generous, and the signature spicy octopus noodles are only available for two people or more, so it’s definitely better to come in a group and share. We also tried the non-spicy clam noodles, which were absolutely delicious—the clams were fresh, sweet, and full of flavor. If I had to rank the dishes, the seafood fried pancake would be my top pick, but the spicy octopus noodles are a must-try as well. One small regret is that we didn’t get to try the fried potato chips, but that just gives me a good reason to come back again next time!

Sooooooooo tasty Their seafood pancake has very thin batter, making it crispy and light to eat. The octopus noodles were mouth-watering and delicious as well. Yummm Just one note: the potion is huge - the pancake is pizza-size and the noodles were in a big bowl. We have 2 persons and cannot finish 2 dishes.
