“Dangol Sikdang” in Gyeongju is a humble, no-frills restaurant loved by locals, known for its spicy stir-fried squid and savory soondae — a perfect spot for a hearty, authentic Korean meal.
What is Dangol Sikdang?
A Place Locals Love
Tucked away in the heart of Gyeongju, Dangol Sikdang (which literally means "Regulars’ Restaurant") lives up to its name.
It’s a go-to spot for locals, especially during lunch and dinner hours.
Everything is freshly cooked upon order, and you can truly feel the warmth of home-cooked flavors.
Must-Try Menu Items
Spicy Stir-Fried Squid (Ojingeo Bokkeum)
This dish was bursting with flavor – chewy squid, spicy gochujang-based sauce, and just the right amount of heat.
Paired with warm rice and mild side dishes, it made for a seriously satisfying meal.
Soondae (Korean Blood Sausage)
The soondae here had a clean, mild flavor with no unpleasant smell.
It wasn’t overly seasoned, so it paired well with ssamjang (fermented soybean dipping sauce) or salt.
It may look simple, but it was perfectly done — soft, hearty, and comforting.
