Divino Ristobar in Hongdae near the children's park is the only decent Italian food I've had in Korea.

I second Taj Palace and Zelen.

Went to Agra for the first time yesterday. Dishes were a bit pricy and inconsistent. However, had the best palak palak paneer in Seoul. I believe they have locations in both Myeong Dong and Itaewon.

For the best "general" buffet around 20k won--there are a kot in Seoul--I like Muscus. Weird name, I know.

I just want to add one more thing about how good Taj Palace is. I went there with another frequent Dave's poster and we became competitive eaters. That never happens. The food there is that good.

If you'll have me, I'd be interested in getting in on a friendly eatimg competition there. I'm pretty confident in my gorging abilities.

No one has mentioned Naked in Itaewon yet. Despite its name and the type of establishment it is (night club, bar), it has fantastic food at good prices. Really, check it out and be surprised!

Why not check out Seoul Eats or Zenkimchi blogs for food in Korea?

I like La Cigale Monmartre for mussels and Belgian (?) food. They have about 20 different recipes for mussels.


I second this place, if it's the one in Itaewon, which is the only one I know of. The girlfriend and I absolutely love it, and we haven't even touched the mussels, which I hear are fantastic and always look delicious when we see others eating there. Personally, I find their salmon amazing and they had a steak medallion that blew me away but I haven't seen on the menu in the last six months.

For Indian / Nepalese I really like Everest near Dongdaemun. Seoul Eats has a photoblog on it.
