I'm looking for the best steak restaurant in Seoul.

Price is really no concern. I'm looking for someplace suitable for my wedding anniversary. So a nice atmosphere is a must. Location is not terribly important, but just in Seoul somewhere.

Our experience at Mercado Brazillian steak was off the charts. The steak was fantastic then they brought out chicken that was even better. How could it be?

Tasty Blvd in Apgujeung. Their Australian Black Angus ribeye is amazing and I think the venue is really appropriate for a wedding anniversary.

I also vote for a Brazilian place, but mine is Ipanema, close to Seodaemun station. 26,000 for all you can eat dinner - buffet, sushi, pasta, soups, - and meat brought to your table on a freeking sword. The garlic-rubbed steak is awesome. Lunch is cheaper, like 18,000 maybe? I don't really know, never been there for lunch. Plus the servers are all Brazilian.

Me and my lady like the Brazilian Joint, Sao Paulo in Gangnam. Its about 100 meters past exit 15. For 23,000 won you get all you can eat steak (cooked PERFECTLY), Kangaroo, lamb, etc etc. It comes around often and the wait staff is amazing.
On the speakers you have a nice mix of Brazilian traditional and jazzy tunes, so its got that. The place is small and quiet, and the decor low key. When taken with the music and the wait staff, you end up with a very cozy, home-like atmosphere that is just so chill that you can't help but gaze into your lover's eyes whilst waiting for the waiter to bring more steak.
As a final note, I'd be remiss to not point out that they also bring around a spicy beef parmigiana, roasted pineapple and cinnamon, salad, and breads- so even if the lady in your life is not enthused about tons of meat, she will still be delighted with the cooking.

don't know when they open, R and I are both late eaters, so I CAN tell you that the price goes up at 10:00. They do serve a lunch, but I don't know if they bring around meat for that.
I forgot to mention previously that they have an amazing wine selection, quite a few good Chileans.

The Meat section of any department store. Go to the section that says American beef. If you have a portable gas range and a few bottles of wine you can have a party in your own living room.

Couldn't agree more. If you want it done right, do it yourself.

Eric's Steakhouse in Seorae Village is great. Very small and cozy atmosphere. Steaks are delicious. The prices are reasonable. You'll be paying slightly more than going to Outback, but the steaks are a lot better.

I went for lunch there and was so disappointed that I walked out after eating only one bite off each item. I got an ultra tough piece of beef that was cut WITH the grain (not against), a nasty chicken wing, and damn Korean sausage. That place is utter shite.
