The 17 Best Restaurants in Gyeongju, South Korea - Eater
"Garlic lovers swoon for the spicy, garlicky braised pork here, which comes with a variety of vegetable banchan. Wrap some rice and pork in a lettuce leaf for a perfect ssam bite, and ask for a side of bokeumbab, or fried rice, to soak up any leftover sauces. [$$]" - Summer Sun-Min Lee
This is a spicy braised pork rib dish with lots of garlic(boneless). The umami flavor sticks to your mouth, with a spicy kick and the sharp heat from the garlic. It's truly addictive and delicious. After finishing the pork ribs(without bone), make sure to add extra fried rice. The pot has many burn marks, but it's a symbol of an old, beloved restaurant. While there's no hygiene issue, it might give a negative impression to those who are sensitive.

Nicey but pricey
This restaurant in a side street has a minimum order of 2 servings for each dish. We ordered the braised beef short ribs (sogalbijjim) - 2 x KRW 22,000 which came with a nice selection of ban chan and ssam wraps - lettuce and perilla leaves. We also ordered 1 serve of rice for which we were charged KRW 1,000. It was very tasty but we thought that it was quite pricey.

Delicious pork rib stew. Best meal we've had in Korea so far. The pork flavour is deep with gorgeous garlic, sweet and spicy flavours. The bacham side dishes were delicious and great accompaniments. The staff were friendly and spoke English which was very helpful. The price of 11,000W is per person and you need to order a minimum of 2 of the same dish.

A place for those who know what they want. It has a small menu with food made to perfection. The 이모들 ("aunties") are nice to boot and attentive to when you need more side dishes. Mostly for groups, but I was there solo, so that works too!
이모들, 감사합니다~ :)

Best meal we have had in Korea. Ignore the bad reviews - no idea what they are talking about. Food was INSANE and such a friendly, fast service! They replaced the side dishes straight away. Wish we could have this in the UK!

Great, but after my kids rocked this place, it added up. The stewed beef and pork ribs are spicy but not unmanageable.
