Arrived here around 4:55pm on a weekday, there were a few people sitting down so we grabbed a seat. By 5:15 the restaurant was completely full and a line had formed.

The beef cartilage stew here is special. We didn’t expect a lot of meat to be in the soup so we ordered an additional platter, but it turned out there was indeed a lot in the soup, and the additional was a bit too much for us. The beef cartilage here is cooked to perfection and the taste is excellent. The price is also very reasonable.

도가니탕 Doganitang (beef knee joint soft bone or ankle joint soft bone soup), the 60th years old restaurant. I really enjoy the soup they made soft bone very yummy!!  It’s melt in your mouth I feel like I eat jelly. 해장국 Haejang-guk (dried cabbage soybeans soup) was good too. Eat together with fresh kimchi, radishes kinchi and galice gochujang. You can ask for mustard mixed with soya sauce and dep your soft bone into the sauce. There are a lot of Korean people come here.
There are only 3 menus here. 1. Dokanitang (beef knee joint soft bone or ankle joint soft bone soup) if you want extra size order Dokanitang tuuk 2. Suu yuk it’s only beef knee joint soft bone or ankle joint soft bone and 3.Haejang-guk dried cabbage soybeans soup
The specialness of the soup is one cow can make only 4 portions. This shop uses only the knee joint soft bone or ankle joint soft bones only.  Rich in protein, calcium collagen. It is a soup that is easily digested.  Suitable for people who are physically weak or those who have recently had surgery. People with osteoporosis also prevent and relieve joint pain.

They have simple menu.
Tang (soup) and sooyuk (meat) called "do ga ni".
If you like boiling hot beef soup, should try. Taste good.
Popular place and filled continuously (at least when I was there)
Recommend at least try once while in Korea.

Fyi, if you don't like jelly like texture of food, won't like it. (But broth is good)

I- a South Asian foreigner traveling Korea- came here based on my friend's suggestion. I had no expectations.

The food was exceptionally good and filling. They have a very simple menu which makes things very simple. I went for their main dish- doganitang- which also came with refillable side dishes (rice, kimchi, etc)

However, my main reason to write this review is to mention how welcoming the staff was here. The gentleman working here (I never asked his name but he is from Busan) proceeded to ask me about my travels despite speaking broken English and he even tried to use me how to use a chopstick. There was this cute Korean couple customers who then also tried to help me as well.

Great staff. Definitely feeling very welcomed to this country as a solo traveler

Delicious food in a busy place with a friendly owner!

Try the doganitang and be sure to season it with the provided salt, pepper, and chillies. It's great!
