If you are a sucker for tangy Spanish food and you are in Gangnam, Seoul, the first place you should hit is Sobremesa.

The head chef creates the country’s traditional recipes with a bit of Spanish rooting to them that gives an excellent taste, essentially drawing huge applause from tourists worldwide. The most cherished dish is the Segovia suckling pig, which is served with some sous vide potato with a roasted apple. You always need to have a reservation, especially when it’s a weekend.

UPDATE Feb 9, 2024: Unfortunately, Sobremesa is temporarily closed for now. So you might want to check out other restaurants in Gangnam. Who knows? Sobremesa might be reopening its stunning restaurant in the future!

MADE

This is one of the best Italian-American restaurants in the heart of Gangnam, Seoul, with an unmissable ambiance. It is also a favorite brunch place for the Gangnam people and draws a major crowd because of its huge array of authentic Italian and American recipes in all Seoul. While their menu might seem utterly simple, it’s not so dull in reality. In fact, it’s almost a shame not to taste their classics like meatballs and spaghetti when you’re in Gangnam. If you ever visit MADE, you need to try out the beef meatballs that are prepared with local Hanu and good-grade quality beef.

NEW YORK B&B BURGER AND BAGEL

It is one of the best Hamburger restaurants if you are ever in Gangnam, with different servings of the dish in both Cajun and American styles.
