The Sambari main branch is a place I had already visited several times. This time a friend and I went on a Thursday evening, a little before eight. It is 99 m from exit 4 of Dongnae Station, a seafood bar that also serves grilled clams.

What I like here is the charcoal-grilled octopus and the shrimp. We had both that day.

They grill and clean it for you

The staff put the seafood on the charcoal one item at a time, grill it, and clean it for you.

The raw shrimp comes to the table already peeled.

Price and crowd

The price range is not low. I was still happy with the taste this time, and I plan to go again. I remember standing in a long line here in the past, but these days there seemed to be somewhat fewer guests. That is only my impression.

We finished with ramyeon.
