Jongno-gu is the historic heart of Seoul, containing Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, and Insadong's antique street. The area balances ancient and modern — traditional Korean restaurants, teahouses, and street food vendors operate alongside contemporary galleries and specialty coffee shops. Eating here feels like a connection to centuries of Seoul food culture.
EAT
EATWhile in Insandong, I tried this restaurant. The restaurant is traditional style. The food tastes delicious.
A great Korean restaurant with traditional Korean architecture right on Insadong Culture Street. The decor and atmosphere are wonderful, with traditional seating arrangements and ambiance. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I am still having difficulty speaking Korean, but the staff were very patient with me. The food was delicious! I will say the price seemed a little higher than other restaurants I visited in Korea when comparing the type of food served. It was not a deal-breaker for me, just something to keep in mind if you're on a budget. It was still worth it, so I recommend if you're looking for good Korean food in Insadong.
