Menu & prices

As listed on Naver at the 2026-08-12 verification run. Korean menu prices move a few weeks behind the platforms; treat these as the shape of the bill, not a quote.

Where the local verdict runs further ahead, within walking distance

Same district, a gap that runs further in the locals' favour, and a local score at least as high as this one — both conditions, so "locals prefer it" is a fact rather than a turn of phrase. Distances are straight-line from 충무집.

Food tours work the Myeongdong night-market strip — this restaurant is 495 m from it. Guided crawls cover that ground in an evening and order the things you would not point at. We measure the ground, not the itinerary: see what the local scores say about it.
