Where to Eat Samgyeopsal in Cheongna, Incheon — Donya: Charcoal-Grilled Pork Belly with Namul Side Dishes and Doenjang Stew Included
Our Cheongna pork belly review 🥓
At Donya Chamsut Saengsamgyeopsal
(돈야 참숯생삼겹살) in Cheongna,
a charcoal brazier
is built right into each table.
The moment we sat down,
what caught our eye
wasn’t the meat —
it was the side dishes.
The full spread — side dishes ring the grill
19-6 Cheongnaraim-ro 122beon-gil

the dumpling shop Gyeongbokgung
Gaeseong Son-mandu and EDIYA Coffee)

The address may say ‘Seohae-gu’,
but it’s the same place
once known as ‘Cheongna, Seo-gu, Incheon’.
(In July 2026, Seo-gu was split
into Seohae-gu and Geomdan-gu.)
🥗 Namul side dishes — at a BBQ place
At a Korean BBQ place,
side dishes usually mean
lettuce, garlic and ssamjang,
plus some kimchi.
Here, you get namul side dishes
(seasoned vegetables).
Stir-fried bracken, seasoned bean sprouts,
two more kinds of namul, pickled onion,
spicy radish salad, even seasoned dried squid!
A basket of leafy greens for wraps,
plus garlic and ssamjang (dipping paste),
come on the side as well.
🍲 Doenjang stew comes with the table
The menu says,
“Doenjang-jjigae is served
with the basic table setting.”
You don’t have to order it —
the doenjang stew just comes with the meal.
If you want more side dishes,
help yourself at the self-serve bar.
Extra side dishes and sauces
are at the self-serve bar
(as the menu says)
🔥 Thick fresh pork belly over hardwood charcoal
The grill is round
with an opening in the middle,
and hardwood charcoal (chamsut) goes underneath.
Every table has
a chimney-style hood hanging over it.
Fresh pork belly — cut thick, with king oyster mushroom, garlic and green onion
The fresh pork belly
comes cut thick —
thick enough to stand each piece on its edge!
King oyster mushroom, garlic
and green onion go on with it,
and the wire rack on one side
is where you rest the cooked meat.
👶 If you’re bringing kids
They have high chairs.
(per the amenities on Naver Place)
But since the charcoal brazier
sits in the middle of the table,
it’s best to seat kids
on the side away from the fire.
We put our child
on the sofa seat on the inside,
and an adult sat
on the other side of the grill.

👍 Who this is for
✔ Anyone who wants
lots of side dishes, even at a BBQ place
✔ Anyone who wants a filling meal
with the stew included
✔ Anyone looking for a place
to eat grilled meat with kids (high chairs!)
The meat comes thick,
and the side dishes beat our expectations.
With namul side dishes and doenjang stew
on the table from the start,
even with just one order of meat
the table never looked bare.
