Review
Goldengejang is famous for its wide range of delicious side dishes on top of its high quality and taste.
I don't usually enjoy marinated crab but the seafood at this restaurant made me fall instantly in love with marinated crab after one bite.
The interior of the restaurant isn't spacious and can seat about 30 people.
It was very neat and you can choose to grab a seat at the regular tables or choose a table where you take off your shoes and sit down.
The restaurant also has a country of origin sign up on the wall. Both crab and abalone are domestic and shrimp is imported.
The blue crabs are very fresh because they are from Yeonpyeong Island in Incheon which boasts its high quality.
You can visit the restaurant in person to try the crab but they also offer delivery!
If you are in Korea, you can place an order online and receive it.
Out of 239 online store reviews, they received a rating of 5/5 so they have a very high reputation!
Please note that the online store's menu and prices may differ.
Ths restaurant won the Best Restaurant Award at Incheon's Best Restaurant Management Competition.
The menu we ordered is the assorted set (33,000 won), Gejang set (25,000 won), and spicy marinated crab (5,000 won).
The assorted set meal includes marinated crab, marinated shrimp, and marinated abalone. The gejang set includes marinated crab and marinated shrimp.
Its portions are big enough to break the little table!
If you order your meal, you will receive this hot seaweed soup first.
You can scoop it up with a ladle and try it.
This is what the meal looks like from my point of view.
If you order a set meal, you will receive so many side dishes, rice, and seaweed soup. Don't you already feel full just looking at it?
The side dishes such as jangjorim, stir-fried fish cake, cucumber kimchi, stir-fried eggplants, acorn jelly, and more are served. They were all delicious and it was fun to eat because they were healthy side dishes that I never got a chance to try before.
I also felt like I was getting healthier and nourishing my body with each bite.
The main dish was finally here! Fresh crabs from Yeonpyeong Island. We ordered the assorted set meal which came with marianted crab, marinated shrimp, and marinated abalone.
Do you see the crab that's full of delicious yellow eggs?
The price was affordable compared to its portions!
For your information, the restaurant provides the plastic gloves that make it more convenient to eat.
If you put the egg and the meat of the crab on top of rice and eat it together, it's so delicious!
The crab eggs are savory and soft, and the meat is firm and sweet. The soy sauce isn't too salty so it's really delicious with the rice.
This is the abalone that is also included in the assorted set. The abalones were much bigger than I imagined.
They use the finest abalones from Wando-san, and is slightly cooked so even those who can't consume raw foods can eat it.
The abalone was chewy and saltier than the crabs so having it with rice was essential.
Koreans like to eat it with Cheongyang red pepper, because it helps remove its greasy taste and makes the taste even fresher! It can be spicy to foreigners.
Do you see the chubby shrimp? I really liked the chewy texture of the shrimp meat.
The shrimp tasted chewy and sweet, rather than salty and fishy.
We payed an extra 5,000 won for spicy marinated crab and here is what it looks like.
The spicy marinated crab was just an additional item on the menu but its portions were pretty big and there was a lot of fresh meat in the crab.
The seasoning was really good! It had a moderately spicy and savory flavor and the seasoning had some sweetness to it too which went well with the fresh crab meat.
After you finish your meal, the leftover taste of crab will stay in your mouth for quite a while.
So they have a coffee machine available for you to cleanse your palete.
