Independent fast food cafe

I had two vegan tacos, one of each type. The one with falafel I enjoyed, the other less so.

There was one member of staff but they were friendly.

Great little diner

Super cool place with friendly service and generous portions. The "chicken" curry was absolutely delicious.
100% vegan.

Saving grace!

I went here two nights in a row and it was amazing. Only one staff member who seated, served and cooked and he was so pleasant and obviously very talented.
The curry and the pasta were both incredible and great portions.
He even gave me some of the rice bread to try for free with my pasta, said he had baked it himself and it was crispy and light.

Pros: Delicious food, Good portions , Lovely staff

Cons: None!!

Gute Burger

Nettes Lokal mit Fast Food-Auswahl. Der Preis war ok und der Burger viel besser als bei Lotteria. Hätte gerne noch die anderen Gerichte probiert.

Pros: Good Food, Nice location

Delicious

Very nice food. I had the curry and it was amazing. Filled me up too.
And my partner had one each of the tacos; he said the falafel one was the best.
Really nice guys too, I would recommend.

Great vegan food!

It’s a very nice restaurant with kind of “fast vegan food” but really tasty. We loved the curry and the chicken with fries.

Pros: The taste , Really quick

Delicious life saver!

Not that many vegan options in Gyeongju-si, but Yella would thrive anywhere. Went three times and loved them all! The star is really the curry, which has everything, from vegan chicken to mushrooms, green beans and rice. Also, try the homemade rice bread. It's really good! On top of it all, the gentleman that runs the place is very friendly.

A saver in Gyeongju

We went to this restaurant twice during our mini visit to the city. The first time we ordered the curry (japanese style) and the sandwich with fries - the curry was better than we expected and the sandwich was what we were expecting. The second time we went was as a plan B, because we wanted to try El Rato, but it was closed that day. However, we really enjoyed the meal, maybe more than the first time. This time we had the tacos and the pasta and we liked both a lot.
Expect a short menu with western style food, a lot of fried components, but let you be surprised and give the restaurant a try if you're not convinced.
This is one of the rare vegan places in Gyeongju and I wish the owner a lot of success.

An oasis in the food desert

Praise the lords. It must be Buddha’s birthday or something, but I finally have some food in my stomach. And it’s good food. I could cry. But seriously awesome - mostly western tacos, sandwiches but also a Japanese curry and a bulgogi salad bowl.

Pros: Vegan food exists in Gyeongju, It’s delicious, You can get here on public transport

Cons: No cons. I won’t bite the hand that feeds

American themed restaurant

Great choice if you're around. Especially because it's fully vegan. We enjoyed our food. The menu is rather small but that didn't bother us.

A gem in Gyeongju!

Food is delicious and fresh, good portions! Fun vibe (sort of modern US diner style). It is nice to support a vegan business in Gyeongju.

Good, if small menu

Credit where credit is due: it must be hard to be an all-vegan restaurant in Gyeongju, which is not vegan friendly. The proprietor is a cool guy who cares about spreading veganism through tasty food. The menu is tiny and Western, but I was able to try a Japanese-style curry that was very nice. I liked it and would recommend it, but I wish it had a bigger menu with a wider range of options, including some Korean dishes.

Excellent vegan food

So pleased to find it in Gyeongju where there aren't that many veggie/vegan options. I had the salad and it was excellent! Very reasonably priced too and nice service. It's a small place with a fairly small menu but was just perfect for what I needed.

Closed because lack of ingredients

We're not lucky in this country with HappyCow. So far, 6 restaurants we tried, 3 of them we couldn't get in. In this case was they don't have ingredients, another one in Seoul didn't exist anymore, and another one in this city we get and they kick us out.... (see my review if interested)

Good choice

All in all I can't complain. The burger was rather mediocre, but the vegan chicken tasted really delicious. Also I liked the variation and size of the salad.

Grateful for a vegan spot in Gyeong-ju

Friendly staff/owners, the food is excellent! It’s a little bit of US diner-Korean fusion but so yummy. The person who I believe is the owner said he makes the bread for the sandwiches himself from rice flour (I think). It was very fluffy and tasty so he knows what he’s doing! Totally worth it and not a bad price either. I hope they get enough support to stay open!!

Good vegan food in a 70s style diner

A new place that only opened in November 2023 in the main shopping district. Owned by a really nice guy who speaks english and loves to practice. The restaurant is in the style of the diner and also has great music. All the food is vegan and they have a good selection including curry, burger, salad and tacos. I had a chicken and a vegetable ball taco and both were tasty and filling.

Pros: Friendly owner, Good tasting vegan food
