Samdae Gwangyang Bulgogijip (Korean: 삼대광양불고기집) is a Korean barbecue restaurant in Gwangyang, South Jeolla Province, South Korea. It specializes in a variant of the barbecue dish bulgogi it invented, which it calls Gwangyang bulgogi. The restaurant is a family business that was founded in 1930; it is currently run by its third generation of owners.[1]

The restaurant was founded as Ilheung Sikdang (일흥식당) by Lee So-eun (이소은).[1] The restaurant did not develop Gwangyang bulgogi until its second generation of owners.[1][2] Its second generation changed the restaurant's name to Gwangyang Bulgogi Sikdang (광양불고기식당).[1] In the 1970s, the restaurant became popular among Japanese tourists. The third generation owner changed the restaurant's name to its current form.[2] After the restaurant developed the dish, other local restaurants began adopting it; eventually it became a dish strongly associated with Gwangyang.[1]

Unlike the Seoul style of bulgogi, which has soup, Gwangyang bulgogi is grilled on a copper pan over charcoals.[3]
