"Wooga was originally born in Hoengseong, the beef capital of Korea. The restaurant is known for preparing the choicest quality local beef in its unique style: dry aged and well done. Chef Heo Se-byeong has been experimenting tirelessly with beef under the slogan meat science to maximize the characteristics of this meat such as tenderness, juiciness and flavor. Don’t miss out on another perennial favorite: a stew made with soybean paste fermented over long stages by the chef’s own mom." - Michelin Inspector

Wooga, a mention in the Michelin Guide. While that certainly raises expectations, the experience doesn’t quite live up to the hype. That’s not to say it’s bad — far from it — but it’s more of a solid neighborhood barbecue joint than a culinary destination. The beef is good quality, especially the hanwoo cuts, and the staff is attentive with the grilling. You’ll get a satisfying meal, and the banchan (side dishes) are fresh, though not particularly memorable. It’s clean, efficient, and the vibe is friendly, but it lacks the kind of standout flavor or unique character you’d hope for from a Michelin nod. If you’re in the area and craving Korean BBQ, Wooga won’t disappoint. Just don’t go out of your way expecting a transformative dining experience. It’s reliable, not revelatory. Rating: 3.5/5 – Worth a visit if nearby, but not a must-see.

Very overrated. Beef quality is mediocre. It’s okay, not han-woo beef. Also the meat was definitely overcooked to be well-done. Not very tender. Their bathrooms are nice though and it’s spacious inside. Food is meh good, not great. Cream risotto is overloaded with black pepper, if you like that. Again, the service and cooking performance is great, but food was meh.

One of the proper places for Aged Rib Eye BBQ in Seoul.

Tried to make a reservation on Catch Table before hand but they rejected me as I was only one person. Despite a 45 minute queue, the lunch set was very good and value for money, paying only 19,000 won for the bibimbap set, that almost every table had. Interestingly, they torch the raw beef tartare yukhoe ball in front of you so you get a variety of flavours and textures. Was not able to order the bulgogi as that requires a minimum of 2 pax to order. The staff were very quick and friendly.

Apparently this restaurant is listed in the Michelin Guide. We made a reservation in advance through Catch Table and visited for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant was very spacious and had a luxurious feel. We ordered Yukhoe Bibimbap. There was a menu in Japanese as well. It was quick from ordering to arrival. There was so much Yukhoe that it looked like a hamburger steak! The waiter grilled it over a burner for us, and then we ate. It was very filling and delicious. Great value for money. When we left, there was a long line of people in front of the restaurant. It's a popular restaurant! I recommend making a reservation in advance. It was a very satisfying restaurant.

it's nice but not sure if this is the best. They won many Michelin awards so maybe you can use that as a gauge? We ordered the ribeye which the minimum order is 400g. It is enough to fit 2 people. Maybe it is standard practice in seoul but we like that they cook and prepare the beef for you. It is recommended to make a reservation to get a table in the main area otherwise you have to pay 30000 won for a private room.
