It was so delicious it was crazy... Try the soft bossam with kimchi. It's the best. The stir-fried octopus is also salty, but it tastes even better if you sprinkle seaweed powder on it. You can also mix it with rice, but then I was really full, so I only ate the stir-fried octopus, and it was delicious.

It was my first time going to the main branch of Obong House, and unlike the chain restaurants, it was so delicious. I ate a lot.

I love Obong House so much, and after going to Balsan's main branch, I realized why there are so many chain branches of Obong House haha. It's absolutely delicious...❤️ Every side dish is so delicious, and I don't miss anything like Bossam, Stir-fried Octopus, and Makguk (buckwheat noodles)!! Choi Gonidang...🧡

The Obong Special was very good, the portions were good, and it was delicious. The stir-fried octopus was a little spicy, but it was so delicious that I kept eating it. Parking is convenient, and my child ate it well, so I will have to visit again.

I visited with my boyfriend on the weekend for a dinner date! Even though I was a little full because I ate lunch late, the food was overall delicious so I had a drink 😋 I was satisfied with the quality and composition of the food, probably because it was the main restaurant, and it was nice to be able to eat more side dishes and seaweed soup on my own!! I want to come again when I want a hearty Korean dinner!

I love Obongjip's stir-fried octopus so much that I've tried it a few times at other branches, but this is the first time I've been to Balsan's main branch. But the main branch is different as expected;;;; It's really delicious, and the seasoning is not good... Why is it so delicious? I was curious about the Obong Special, and both the bossam and makguksu are really delicious... Especially the bossam meat... why is it so soft... so juicy... and the bossam kimchi is ridiculous.... A Balsan Korean food restaurant approved by food lovers ㅠ I'll go again.....

It’s been a while since I visited because a lot happened last winter! Obong Restaurant is delicious for people of all ages, holidays, weekdays and weekends, anytime and with anyone! * Today’s menu Obong special that I always eat!! The owner, who recognizes me even though it's been a while and speaks kind words to me, the chefs who make delicious food, and the staff who serve us kindly and quickly are the best!! (Actually, it’s no secret that I’ve been regularly buying Obong House’s stir-fried octopus from home shopping since last summer😘)

I ate Obong Octopus Bossam at the main branch of Obong House, Balsan, and I was really satisfied! The spicy octopus had a fiery scent and was delicious, and the bossam was soft without any unpleasant smell, so it was a great combination when eaten together. When you take a bite of the octopus and bossam on lettuce, you can immediately see why it is so popular. The basic side dishes are clean and good to go with a drink, and I was able to come in right away and eat comfortably without a reservation. This is a Balsan restaurant that is great to visit anytime with friends, family, or lovers!

As expected, the main branch is different! The gambrisal bossam melted in your mouth, the octopus was plump, and the smell of fire was crazy. It was so delicious..❤️ I was really impressed by the sense that the owner added sesame oil and seaweed powder when mixing the rice with the stir-fried octopus seasoning! The Obong Special was so rich that I ate bossam, octopus, and makguksu until my stomach was full. The store is spacious and comfortable, so I don't think there's a better place for a family gathering or company dinner near Balsan Station! Parking was easy and the staff were all very friendly, so I had a pleasant meal. I'll go again next time! :)

I ate it last time and it was so delicious that I came back! I remember having to wait, so it was open for dinner☺️ I wanted to eat stir-fried fish, so I ordered the Obon Fish Special and ate a lot! The crab is the absolute best value for money~ Stir-fried fish for 2, Bossam + Makguksu, so it's not only cost-effective but also generous! I'm going to come back and order this next time I go to the restaurant. The owner and staff are very friendly and the side dishes are clean, so you can keep eating them as you please. It's even served with hot seaweed soup, so it feels like I'm eating proper Korean food👍💚 The stir-fried fish is spicy and sweet, so I ordered seaweed powder and sesame oil from the self-service bar, mixed it with rice, and it was hearty and delicious! It’s not irritating so it’s easy to use! The bossam is moist and soft and the kimchi is really delicious! It's the best combination when wrapped with makguksu (buckwheat noodles), so I highly recommend ordering the set😆 I'll definitely be visiting again!
