6 Places to Enjoy Crab Dishes in Incheon’s City Center and Port (Excluding Ganghwa)

Incheon's crab dishes are not just concentrated in Ganghwa's Oepo-ri. You can enjoy soy sauce marinated crab and crab set meals in Songdo, Namdong, Bupyeong, and Dohwa as part of your everyday dining. Meanwhile, in Yeonnam-dong and Yeongjong, you can take in the port scenery while also considering steamed crab and seafood menus. Since the ordering structure differs between downtown crab houses and port sashimi centers, it’s not easy to compare them on the same criteria.

This list excludes all the locations mentioned in the previous article about crab spots in Ganghwa and selects six places from the mainland of Incheon and Yeongjong. In a tourism survey of Incheon, steamed crab and crab soup appeared as some of the seafood dishes people associate with the region. When dining in the city center, focusing on set meal compositions is key, while at the port, checking the daily availability and cooking costs is crucial.

Crab houses in Songdo, Namdong, Bupyeong, and Dohwa are suited for public transport and city meals, while seafood restaurants in Yeonnam-dong and Yeongjong cater to seaside trips and large steamed dish menus. If you desire a crab set, consider the inclusion of side dishes and rice; for steamed crab at the port, pay attention to the size of the crabs, cooking methods, and the serving structure at sashimi centers. The nature of the places is what sets the criteria for this list.

The seafood menu in Yeonnam-dong and Yeongjong is influenced by weather, fishing, and stock availability. Even if registered on Kakao Places, not all desired crab dishes will be available daily, so it’s advisable to confirm current offerings via phone or their dedicated numbers. Crab packaging helps maintain cold temperatures during transport, and you should follow the store's storage and consumption guidelines.
