Anmog-Ae (안목애) is a seaweed soup specialty restaurant located by the coast. The interior is simple and spacious, with large windows that overlook the beach, creating a calm and relaxing dining atmosphere.

Orders are placed at the counter near the entrance, after which you are given a pager that buzzes when your food is ready for pickup. The restaurant has a self-service banchan (side dishes) cart offering a variety of options, and refills are available. In addition to the self-service banchan, extra side dishes are also served alongside the main dishes you order.

We ordered the seaweed tofu soup, spicy beef soup, and bibimbap.

The seaweed tofu soup had a light and refreshing broth. The tofu was soft and silky, with a gentle soy flavor that complemented the seaweed well.
The spicy beef soup was well-seasoned, with a rich, hearty broth and a satisfying level of spice.
The bibimbap was flavorful and well-balanced—spicy yet fresh from the vegetables, with umami notes from the seaweed flakes and a pleasant fermented depth from the gochujang and kimchi.

Overall, the food was delicious, comforting, and perfect for a casual meal by the sea.
