How I Chose My Favorites for This List
These are the 15 favorite restaurants near Osan Air Base that I have eaten at most often over the last 1-8 years. They range from fancy to fast. There are some spots I visit when I’m in a hurry and hungry like Jangkeumne Baekban and restaurants I go to on all the special occasions like Ceviche 210.

Where is Sinjang-dong?

Sinjang-dong is the area outside of Osan Air Force Base which is about a 10-minute walk from Songtan Station. This area is mostly known for its international restaurants, but I have a few Korean food spots that delight my tastebuds. Most of these restaurants are along Sinjang Shopping Street. However, some may refer to this area as the SED (Songtan Entertainment District), Osan Ville, Songtan, or other names depending on your community.

However, you will have your own best list that I highly recommend sharing with others in the comments or the Pyeongtaek Food & Fun Facebook group. I also recommend leaving reviews in the South of Seoul app in order to share your favorites with others.
