Tasty food - both Korean food and other Asian food.

You sit on floor (which I don’t mind), but it might be good to know for some.

Pros: Big menu, All Vegan, Staff was very friendly

Amazing experience

The food here was absolutely amazing- we ordered rice dishes and received 5 or 6 small side dishes with it. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is lovely. I also bought some noodles and little vegan croissants. I definitely recommend going here if you're in Seoul!

Loved it!

Fully vegan menu, with many options: bibimbap, tofu stews, salads, noodle soups, soy/beans steaks, ...
We had a bibimbap and a spicy tofu stew: they were both delightful!
Portions are just right, so one main course for lunch will be enough.
The venue is very nice too: cross sitting, in a ‘temple-like’ atmosphere.
Staff is friendly and speaks English.
Prices are absolutely fair: 10K each for the dishes we ordered.
Don’t miss it!!

A vegan heaven in Seoul

I had the vegan Korean BBQ and omg... It was the best! All the side dishes were also delicious as well as the dumplings. This place is a must visit if you're in Seoul.

Yum!!

So delicious! The bbq meat is a must try! I think the price is very reasonable and you get a good portion size. I enjoy sitting on the low tables feels more authentic 😃

Not impressed

I am not sure why this place gets such great reviews. It felt very dirty inside. There are dying plants everywhere. I was seated next to stacks of boxes (traditional floor seating here) the kitchen didn’t look clean. The whole place had a “junky, cluttered” vibe. The dumplings were good. The bbq was very chewy. The sides tasted old. It was quite full inside but not loud. I would not go back or recommend. Disappointing!

Traditional and excellent

I was there in November 2018 and brought two meat eaters (one from Sweden and one from Korea) and all three of us were really impressed. All of the dishes were just fantastic.

Leave plenty of time

Both times I’ve been here the food has been great. But when they say they close at 9pm, they really do. There is a comedy waitress who will literally stand over you and make you eat up by taking your plates away. The bill comes directly after ordering and “money now” is demanded. It’s all pretty funny and adds to the experience. I would definitely recommend for traditional Korean vegan food. Just don’t go after 7:30pm!

Pros: Traditional Korean food, Traditional setting

Cons: Don’t visit late if you want a leisurely dinner.

Just ok

Maybe it’s because I’m not used to eating Korean food, but I thought the food was just ok. But they did have good portions and decent prices. The place is a cute old fashioned place where you take off your shoes and sit on the floor. It is a bit hard to find, like some people said, they have a sign that says vegetarian restaurant. Julifarn said “find Insadong-Gil 12 and it’s at the end”.

Pros: Decent menu options, Good portions

Cons: A little hard to find

Very good experience

When entering you should leave your shoes in the closet on the right, the restaurant is on the left door. Food was really good, i had the bibimpap but there is a ton of options. Waitress wasn't that good at English but friendly and everything went really well.

Generous and tasty vegan Korean food

This restaurant is like a Loving Hut, providing vegan food and projecting Supreme Master TV at every corner. Food is very good, typically Korean and generous in portion. You have plenty of choice and every dish comes with Korean sides, free tea and water. Except for TV, the place is pleasant and traditional. Prices are fair and the whole experience is definitely worth the visit.

Pros: 100% vegan, good food, generous portions, pleasant place, various choice, fair prices

Cons: TV everywhere

Authentic!

A bit difficult to find but well worth it! The street does not appear on google or apple maps, but find the Insadong-Gil 12 street and follow it to the very end and there it is😄A cozy place where you eat on the floor. I had some noodles with vegetables which tasted great.

One of my Seoul favs

This place is so good. Last year we went there with my friend like 3 or 4 times during our 12 days stay in Seoul because we liked it so much. This year unfortunately i could go only once when i was in Seoul for a few days. I absolutely love all the banchan they give you. How much of sides you get really depends on the time you go there and on the amount of food you order i think haha? Anyway, you can’t go wrong with vegan bbq, soy cutlet, fried dumplings or the sesame noodles. The staff is kind, service is nothing extraordinary, just normal - but really not rude/cold like some reviewers say.

Pros: Not pricy, Traditional veganized :), Variety of foods you can buy to take home

Cons: Not everything is fresh but hey??? It’s so good.

Nice place to bring non-vegan friends

오세계향 is my favorite vegan restaurant so far. The food is familiar to Koreans, so it’s a great place to bring non-vegan company when introducing veganism. There is a wide variety of menus and the place is spacious. The seats may be a bit uncomfortable though, since there aren’t any chairs and you have to sit on the floor.

Pros: OK location-in the middle of Seoul, Diverse menus (including “meaty” food)

Charming restaurant with traditional Korean food

Very friendly staff! Huge menu and good sized portions. Had the vegetable soy stew which came with 5 small dishes/rice.

Next time I’d go for a bigger noodle dish, they looked delicious.

Seating on the floor and small shop at front selling vegan cheese etc.

Food was okay, slow service.

I have been to many vegetarian/vegan restaurants in different countries around the world and the food here was disappointing. It was okay but not as good as it could be. We were in a group of 6 and ordered various different dishes but none deserved a 5 star.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Better than going to a non-veg korean restaurant , Peace of mind - typical fish sauces are not used.

Cons: Taste was not that good. , Service was slow and poor.

This place deserves more 3-star reviews

Lived in Seoul for three months and went here quite often. It’s good as far as vegan Korean food in Seoul goes, but I honestly can’t bring myself to giving this more than three stars. The service sucks. Like honestly. The food is good, but not out of this world. The best part of the restaurant is the setting and the floor seating. I’d recommend going for the experience but don’t expect to have your wig snatched.
