Quick and delicious - Edit
Very quick and friendly service. You'll get a can of water as soon as you sit down and two kinds of sidedishes (반찬). I ordered the bibimbap (비빔밥) which comes with a small tofu soup. Both were really good. The soup had a nice amount of spice to it. Definitely reccoment to check it out when you are hungry at Coex 😊
Read moreBeen here a couple of times with several friends and everyone liked it.
They added a few new dishes to the menu. I can definitely recommend the fried tofu and mushrooms. Super delicious!

Tasty vegan food at COEX Mall - Edit
Ate here every day during a one-week business trip to Seoul. All their food was yummy and staff were friendly. Very popular even among non-vegan people, be prepared for a short queue at lunchtime.

Great food and service - Edit
The service was fast and friendly. I had the lasagna and really enjoyed it. My omni friend had the bibimbap and tofu stew. I thought stew was pretty spicy, so if that's not your thing, avoid it. The portion sizes are perfect. The wine selection was small, but organic and very tasty. We'll be back!
Read morePros: Totally vegan , Wine selection

Filling and delicious - Edit
I struggled to find this place in COEX, but I'm glad that I did. My mum ordered the bibimbap and soup, and I ordered the cutlet with rice. The soup was really tasty and the cutlet had a good flavour with just the right amount of sauce. I wish the food had been served at a hotter temperature, but the service was at least quick and efficient.

Amazing lasagne, so many options - Edit
I really craved some ‘western’ style food and I found this spot with so many options! I had the vegan lasagne which was so, so tasty. The portion size perfect with a side salad and side pickles. Super friendly staff too.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options , Side dishes included

Okay somen - Edit
Big restaurant in the COEX Mall in Gangnam. Large menu, went with the Crunchy Vegetable Spicy Noodles with Gyoza Dumplings (e.g. spicy somen) and a tofu tiramisu for dessert.
Read moreThe waiter warned that the somen was spicy, but I didn't feel a kick at all. Hopefully they didn't water it down to make it "foreigner friendly". Felt underwhelmed, probably should've ordered a different main. The dumplings were delicious though.
The tiramisu was also great, gotta look up how to make this when I get back home.
Pros: Lots of options , Dumplings and tiramisu delicious
Cons: Spicy somen really not spicy

Vegan restaurant within COEX Mall (B1, located between Youngpoong Bookstore and Megabox Theatre). Western, Korean, and fusion menu. Contains alliums. Quite healthy and tasty! 5 min walk from Bongeunsa Subway Station Exit 7. Also a 10 min walk from Bongeunsa Temple (which is near Exit 1 of the same station).

Maybe 3,5 - Edit
Maybe 3,5 Stars? Fully vegan with Bowls, Pasta and some changing seasonal dishes.
Read moreWhen I was here they just advertised their new menu. I wasn’t sure what to order because the healthy up eggplant Bowl with additionally bulgogi sounded great.
I ended up ordering the Rice Bowl 🍚 with Tofu Cutlet with vegetables.
I wanted to have something crunchy and the tofu Schnitzel was very crunchy and delicious indeed. negative part are the veggies (all of them…). All of them cold and the mushrooms could have been cooked longer. Didn’t enjoy the taste of pepper as well and it seemed like full size raw garlic. Everything was cold and undercooked!
Their seasonal bowl and also their Mushrooms as side dishes sound good to try! I might go back

Pros: Tofu cutlet
Cons: Undercooked veggies, Raw whole pieces of garlic?!, Vinegar pepper/ jalapeños

Pretty good! - Edit
I had their fried aubergine curry, and although the curry itself was not spicy at all it was overall quite good! Includes brussels sprouts, peppers, and cauliflower as well. The rice has several grains, which was nice!

Not good, not bad - Edit
The food was okay, but I wouldn't go back again. Since there aren't many options in this area, we were happy to eat there and the staff was very friendly. They provided an english menu and we got a seat immediatly (No waiting line). We had the tofu katsu and the soy bulgogi. Both meat alternatives tasted good, but I was a bit disappointed about the rest, since all the veggies were cold and not freshly prepared. The food arrived 5 minutes after we ordered, so it felt like they only heated the meat alternatives and put everything together. In general, the food was also very sweet what we didn't like that much.
Read morePros: Only vegan option, Friendly service
Cons: Not very fresh, Very sweet

Good katsu - Edit
I had read great things about the food, not so great about the atmosphere, but I find it to be the other way around, sorta.
Read moreThe food is good, I ordered the tofu katsu precisely because I’d read so much about it, and it’s flavorful and filling, but nothing I couldn’t make at home.
I went early, prepared to have to wait in line, but even though the place was busy, they served me immediately (I went on a Monday for lunch and I was on my own, maybe weekends are entirely different).
Overall, it was pretty good to have an option that was filling and quite healthy, and being the only vegan restaurant at COEX it’s nice to see it’s busy with locals.

Can you please tell me where it is located?

Look for Coex mall in Gangnam, floor B1 and walk around following the blue path :)

Thanks for replying.

I believe you are referring to the main entrance.

No worries!

very tasty!! - Edit
I’ve had 3 meals here now and each one was amazing! in my first few days in korea I was struggling around my hotel area to find vegan options, and then on a whim while visiting coex mall I came across this gem!! it is a 40 minute train for me so i can’t visit as often as i’d like, but having said that it’s definitely worth the trip:) so yummy!!

Great tofu katsu, not so great atmosphere - Edit
Since I read the reviews beforehand, I was prepared for waiting in the queue to enter the restaurant.
Read moreMy main complaint is that everything feels rather rushed when you actually get a table - it feels like they want you to eat your food as soon as possible, so they can serve the next person in line. That would be fine if it were an actual fast food place, but the prices are not THAT cheap.
That being said, I thought the tofu katsu was delicious.
But keep in mind that all of the vegetables in the bowl (like mushrooms and broccoli) are cold, so only the tofu is actually freshly prepared.

Amazing food - Edit
Friend recommended I try bulgogi in Korea, so I was thrilled to find a place with vegan bulgogi! The bulgogi was tasty, and the different ingredients in the dish (rice, peppers, etc) all went together well.
Read moreTomato soup was reminiscent of pizza — delicious!
Fried lotus root and tofu was also very tasty and quite a generous portion.
Staff speak English and have an English menu available. They get busy and have a wait during regular mealtimes, so be prepared! Waitstaff took our order when we were next in line, so our food would be started as we were being seated. Very thoughtful!
Highly recommended.
Pros: Vegan Korean food

Thankful for a vegan restaurant in coex - Edit
I'm thankful this place exists where options aren't that great in coex! I had a craving for something tomato-y so I ordered the tofu lasagne (and was also intrigued by the tofu element). In hindsight it wasn't enough to fill me but it was nice and settled my craving. The salad was a bit lacking. Just a regular balsamic salad. I'm intrigued to go here again and try the other dishes. I will definitely go back! Staff were reasonably friendly and gave me a menu in English.
Read morePros: Intriguing menu, Easy to eat a lone with counter style tables, Fully vegan options
Cons: A bit of a rushed process

Perfect for a tasty lunch between shopping sessions - Edit
Perfect location in the COEX mall for a lunch break between the draining shopping sessions. Be careful, it might be pretty crowded and you have to wait. But the waiters took our order while waiting and we got our food not that long after seating. Even in the busy ours it didn’t felt hectic at all. Food was very nice and they have a big variety of vegan options.

Perfect Lunch - Edit
I ordered the Bibimbap which is served with a Soft Tofu Stew. The stew was very very tasty, and in combination with the fresh Bibimbap it was the perfect lunch menu. Even if the typical Bibimbap sauce was missing, it was still yumme and I will definitely come back to try other dishes!

Worth it - Edit
Had my first visit. I ordered the tofu katse rice bowl, and it was good. The tofu steak was delicious, with perfect sauce, and the mushrooms, broccoli and pickled onions and radish complimented it well. Maybe a little more flavor to the rice would change it to A plus. I shared the lasagne with a friend as a second entrée. Flavorful- tho small if you are very hungry. I would say every visit warrants adding on the tiramisu- it's a must. I will come back for the tofu steak and to try other dishes. We wanted chopsticks and they gave them to us. At 5:30 on a weekday there was no line, and choices of seating. I like that they have an open kitchen and the chefs were paying attention to how their food was received. The servers were friendly. I would also buy some yogurt to go next time. It's great to see this kind of option in such a high traffic, mainstream area.

food is great but atmosphere and service a bit lacking - Edit
the food here was way better than i expected. everything that we ordered was really good and for me i think the price and the portion matches well. the fried mushroom and tofu dish was really really good and i would definitely eat it again. everything was seasoned well and crispy and cooked well. i would love to try some different things next time.
Read morethe only downfall is that there was quite a long line to wait in and as they were pretty busy, forgot our drinks until we reminded them a while after we were seated and received our appetizer.
i was also really wishing for some chopsticks as some of the food was a bit annoying to eat with a fork.
overall i would definitely come back.
