I know an all you can eat raw tuna restaurant near Yangpyoung station (line 5).

I think $20, probably the best place I've been too. Other places have been more expensive and not as good to me.

Also I don't know about subway, but there's a quiznos right outside of Yeouido station next to the burger king, and a quiznos in the kyobo building in Gangnam.

You wouldn't happen to know where around Yangpyeong this would be, would you? I heart tuna.

Hyehwa: All you can eat sushi at Marisco. Go out exit 1, walk straight, look on the right by Pizza Hut.

Hyehwa: Subway sandwiches. Go out exit 4, turn and walk left. Just past the Family Mart at the intersection.

Jongno 2 ga (or just East of Jonggak Tower): Subway sandwiches

City Hall: Quiznos. On the one way street from the City Hall Plaza to the Cheongyechon.

Myeongdong: All you can eat seafood buffet. Too complicated to give directions.

Miasamgeori: Quiznos in the basement of Lotte Dept. Store

Itaewon: Subway and Quiznos

Yeouido: Quiznos by the station, SW corner of the big intersection at the station

There are tons of all-you-can sushi places. One example is the "Dokdo Chamchee" chain.

Look for the words "마음껏" (maeum got) written somewhere on the sign. It basically means "as much as you want".

Note: Usually any Korean I write just shows up as question marks or gibberish. If that is the case here, sorry.

Skip the Subway places here. The first three times I ate one here I could not believe my mouth. Waffer thin meat, sweet pickles and half assed bread.

I make better at home after a trip to PB

You wouldn't happen to know where around Yangpyeong this would be, would you? I heart tuna.

I will post a map for you by tomorrow with the exact directions if you want. I'll try to give directions as best as I can.

-Come out of exit 2, should be the only exit with an escalator.
-Walk straight, towards the road that will eventually become the omokyo bridge(the bridge would be on your right).
-make a left and walk until you see a bank on the left, can't remember which name.
-walk a little further and on your left you will see a tuna house. there should actually be two in this area, but the first one is the one i've gone to and I can say it's really delicious there and the owner is a nice guy (he doesn't speak English though). Not very hard to order, just say a serving for one person.

So for $20 you basically get unlimited tuna, unlimited missu soup, along with a serving of corn, jook, gim(seaweed), as well as one tuna rolled in seaweed and rice and wasabi (which i guess is sushi), and some other cone shaped seaweed with rice and some crystal things in there.

Anyways I really recommend it and just posting this has got me craving tuna again. I really like the ingredients there compared to other places.


here is a few pics from a while back:

Each Subway is different in quality. The one near Jonggak is great. Some meats are better than others. Avoid the "steak" in Korea. And the Chicken breast isn't solid pieces, it's chunks (unlike the picture shown). You can order off or on all the veggies you want. Bread quality is great 90% of the time. And it beats butter-toasted sandwiches with sweet sauce.

The road leading to HongDae's main gate has a Subway and a decent taco joint. Across the street from there and down a bit toward the corner, there's an all you can eat sushi place (10,000 won?) in the basement.

On the 'park street' of HongDae, just up from Exit #5, there a some all you can eat samgyupsal places. If you go out Exit 5 HongDae or Exit 3 Hapjong and head straight up, you'll see an all you can eat sashimi place just up from the corner leading to 'Rodeo Street'.

There's a fancier all you can eat sashimi place in from Exit 5 in Hongdae. Go out Exit 5, take an immediate left and keep going. You'll cross the 'park street', and then go into a street that breaks right (there's a small coffee stand on the corner). Go up a little ways, and the sashimi place is on the 2nd or 3rd floor in the building across from 'Shooters' (at least I think that's the name), the pub with the outside deck seating.

Great. Now I'm freakin hungry.

I think the sushi is only 10K, and they also have the 'California rolls'. The quality was as good as any poonshik I've seen. Eat what you want, ignore the rest.

As for the sashimi, it's a bit more than 20 bucks, and most would agree that soju is the way to chase it down.

There is an all you can eat sushi place between Gangnam station and Yeoksam station. It costs around 17,000 for all you can for 40 minutes. It's fresh and quality is pretty good. Go out exit 8 of Gangnam station and walk straight about 200 metres. It's before the first set of lights on the left, just before a Two Two Chicken place. There is a screen outside showing the inside of the restaurant and steps leading down to the restaurant which is in the basement. Good stuff!
