About this spot
Hand Steak delivers the raw, unfiltered experience of a true Korean steakhouse where you watch your cut being seared right before it hits your table. The sizzling beef arrives with a charred crust that locks in juices, served simply with garlic butter and fresh greens to let the meat's natural flavor shine.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'hand-cut' portion size if you are sharing, as the chef slices the steak from the block at your table.
- Expect to wait 15-20 minutes for the sizzling plate to arrive while you enjoy a complimentary side of kimchi or soup.
- Bring cash only, as most small Seoul steakhouses like this one do not accept credit cards.
