In love with this food! - Edit
We had dinner at Obuthan. We saw it has a lot of good reviews, but were a bit unsure about the menu as it didn't seem very korean. They use local and seasonal ingredients and all my doubts went away after starting to taste the food. We ordered the korean style pasta with seaweed and the potato gnocchi with spinach sauce. It was delicious!! I couldn't get enough of that spinach sauce.
Read moreThe space is very calm and pleasant and the staff polite and kind.
Give it a try if you can.
Edit: I forgot to mention the fried rice cakes, which we ordered to start the meal. Very tasty! Cooked with salt, pepper, garlic, I believe. Would order again.

Lovely place with kind people - Edit
I had lunch at this restaurant! They are according to people usually super booked, but because I was on my own I could have lunch just fine. The staff treats you very well! The lady even let me try the special herb beforehand, so I could decide which menu to get. The lunch menu was a seasonal menu, so it might change in summer. But I really liked the tofu and side dishes!
Read morePros: Amazing Food, Staff speaks English and have English Menu, You get treated like a special guest 🥰

Lovely - Edit
Very kind owners, chill atmosphere with nice music and wine. The pasta was delicious, my favourite was the Korean style pasta (garlic yummm). Also the fried vegetables tasted very fresh and nutritious. For me personally it lacked a bit of salt but my boyfriend thought it was perfect the way it was. Bit on the pricey side (16.000 - 18.000 won per dish), but worth it after we saw how much love went into every single meal.

Super delicious - Edit
We had both the fried vegetables and the grilled cauliflower with rice cakes. Especially the cauliflower with the rice cakes was super delicious! It was a bit pricy but I can still highly recommend it.

Nice atmosphere - Edit
The restaurant had a calm vibe that I really appreciated, and the staff was lovely. Differently from the other all vegan places in Busan, it's not associated to the Supreme Master, and it offers alcohol, including craft beers. My favorite was the fried rice cake.
Read moreWe went a second time, but for lunch, and the food was even more impressive, and with a really good price for the quality of the set. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Busan.

A bit hard to find but worth the search - Edit
Thanks to an elderly Korean gentleman, I was able to find this little gem - and I am glad he helped. Very welcoming place, nice English speaking service that explains the menu and ingredients well, good food and delicious barley water. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but it’s money well spent.

Absolutely delicious - Edit
I went with a group of non vegans and they were so amazed at everything here. We got almost everything on the menu and shared. Even the plate of veggies and cauliflower was spectacular.

No ifs no Obuts - Edit
Good quality, healthy vegan set lunch for only 12,000 won. A little on the plain / unexciting side - hence 4 rather than 5 stars.

I went there for an early lunch but didn't manage to reserve since I do not speak Korean. There were just two other tables taken so it wasn't a problem. They offered two set lunches of which I took the seaweed option which was very tasty.

Absolutely delicious! - Edit
Food was so good that I completely forgot to take pics! They serve traditional Korean food during the lunch time and western fusion food for dinner. If you go for dinner, the gnoccis with nut sauce are a must!
