Hello,

Wazwan Restaurant may be one of the best Indian eateries in Asia let alone the Republic of Korea.

This valuable entity is located in Hannam-dong, Seoul just past the gorgeous Seoul Mosque.

The people who work there seem kind and attentive. More, the food one can purchase there is, in my humble opinion, quite delicious.

The very polite male who appears to be the owner has been sincerely generous to me every time I've been there. He obviously has a good mind and very good manners, too.

Sincerely,

Roch

Seconded. So far, it's my favorite Indian/Pakistani (I actually think it's supposed to have a Nepalese cuisine) in Seoul. Great food and so cheap I felt guilty when I left. Like I hadn't paid enough.

Than in Gangnam is ok.(508-6660)

3 Indian chefs so you can get it nice and spicy on request.

Cheapish,good naan,beer pitchers,rustic decor.

I'm going to try it today. It's really that good? The prices are cheaper than most other places in Seoul so that alone is attractive. Any particular recommendations on dishes?

I really like The Himalayan.

Great, great food, very cheap. The decor is nothing special, but the food is fantastic.

Try Namaste at either Dongmyo station or Jonggak station. They have great curry and it's not pricey either.

The Jonggak location is in the basement of Jongro Tower.

I agree with everything you have written. Wazwan is great. After trying a few other Indian restaurants in Seoul, I am sticking with Wazwan from now on.
