Western food - Edit
The first time I went I thought the food was ok but not more, except for the lavender chai latte which was scrumptious.
Read moreThe second time I had the pistachio gnocchis it was delicious, and the dessert was so rich and decadent!
The owner speaks perfect English.

cute, welcoming and creative menu - Edit
Came here on a rainy day and sat by the window to journal. Sadly, I wasn't hungry, so I only ordered a drink: a lavender chai latte. It was soo good. 🥰 Next time, I would definitely try the hot chocolate with mini marshmallows and one of the desserts! I really liked the calm and relaxed vibes of Rooted.

I'm still dreaming about that tomato *tuna*! Really such a sweet place, great menu and fresh, nourishing food and delicious drinks. Lots of real plants, whichto me make a place special. The owner spoke perfect English so I didn't have to embarrass myself with my trash Korean.

Delicious find!! - Edit
Lovely owner and delicious food. Very western vibes. We got the gnocchi, potato salad and tomato tuna bowl. I really recommend trying the tomato tuna - i’m gonna try recreating it at home. My bf liked the gnocchi best, he thought it was cheesy and yummy😄for dessert we shared a slice of banana bread and a chocolate chip cookie, still warm from the oven!

There isn't a lot of vegan food in the area, so this place is a plant eater's oasis. The owner is super nice and speaks English fluently. The food is reasonably priced and the place is cozy. I don't the food is superb but it's certainly quite nice. I'll definitely come back here.

Cozy European Atmosphere & Simple menus - Edit
A few interesting menus. Only 5 mins walk from the subway station. The owner chef speaks very fluent English. I wish sourdough has much more sour flavor…

Absolutely Amazing!! - Edit
When we were there we had the pesto risotto with vegan shroom-scallop, the excuse me… Jeju carrot? and an apple crumble parfait and everything was exceptional!! The chef of the restaurant was so kind and sweet, the decoration was very cosy and I highly recommend!! Their menu changes weekly, you can find their current menu on their Instagram @rootedseoul They’re open Tuesday through to Saturday, if you have the chance, definitely check it out!

Best vegan food I've had in Seoul! - Edit
Had the Hummus platter and my partner had the Grilled Cheese, nicest vegan Grilled Cheese sandwich I've ever had! Dessert was lovely too, my partner had Banana Bread and Banana Ice cream and I had a Peach Parfait with Ice Cream and Banana Bread also, washed down with an iced soya latte. Cannot recommend this place enough, lovely cost atmosphere within walking distance of the Lotte World Mall and Tower, well worth the trip!

Lovely spot with a menu that’s hard to chose from - Edit
What a hard choice: the menu looked and sounded just very appealing. I chose a Green curry that was delicious and/but different to what I expected. Loved the atmosphere, very cosy and sweet and intimate: They cook in front of you.
