I want a nice, romantic place to eat, and I found this one recommended, but I can't find any menu. Does anyone know what food they have? Or any other suggestions for nice, non-Korean restaurants?

Do you remember what you ate?

Le Sainte Ex in Itaewon is a nice French bistro, not exorbitantly priced, though you won't be eating on the top floor of a skyscraper either.

I've been 3 times. I think it's excellent. Truly international cuisine made with all the best ingredients. The head chefs are foreign. Nuff said.

Not too expensive. Around 40,000 per person for two courses.

Went there years ago for a romantic dinner. Can't recall exactly what we had except for a nice bottle of Riesling. Since I've been very disappointed in Korean restaurants' wine selection in the moderate price range, that was a big plus for the place. I do remember the food being very good and the atmosphere pleasant, clean and upscale. For the price, which was not too exorbitant, it is a great place.

For a romantic dinner in Seoul, I highly recommend the Pierre Gagnaire in the Lotte Hotel.

I'm never able to find it without yelling out in the streets like a mad man.
