Mr Marko - Edit
The food is amazing but the staff has very bad and ugly attitude.
Read moreFirst day we arrived at 19:41 and since they stop taking orders at 19:40 they did not let us order anymore just for being late one minute. After countless minutes of arguing the Lady finally served us but she only allowed us to order 2 dishes. After ordering the food the waitress did not let us sit and she said we can only take out.
We decided to give it another chance but we were met with the same situation.
Too bad that the restaurant has such a good dish but the waitresses ruin the whole experience. We Will not return here.
Pros: Food
Cons: Disgusting behaviour from the staff, Unproffesional, Egoistic

Cute spot, incredible views, food - Edit
Brought my birth family here to try vegan food. Thank you so much for letting me treat my birth family to this meal. They never went to a vegan restaurant and they loved it! I enjoyed crispy fried mushrooms, hubby ordered a spicy dish, my parents enjoyed mushroom bulgogi, and my brothers, sister in law and nephew enjoyed the katsu.

Good service, foreigner friendly, good view in some seats - Edit
Very kind and good service. Menu was a bit hit or miss for me, soup was quite bland and not especially spicy (particularly for Korea) despite being warned but the Tofu and banchan were really delicious.

Good food - Edit
We enjoyed our dinner here. Very tasty and well presented. They were friendly and it has a great view. The description says it’s temple food, however, having just been to a temple I would say it’s fancier than that.

Kinda posh vibes 7/10 - Edit
If you like fine dining and that this place is great for you. I ordered one of the set menu meals and had I think 5-7 courses and they were all solid but nothing blew me out of the water like crazy, they have lots of options though.
Read moreDefo recommend quick service as well on the slightly more expensive side but it's calm. The serving staff were nice but had slight issue trying to order the set menu for 2/3 of us and having the other order seoertley but apart from that it was fine. Cool being so high up as well whilst eating.

Amazing - Edit
The food here was fantastic. I’ve seen a lot of people complain saying the restaurant is too expensive which I vehemently disagree with. The food is delicious and the servings are large and very filling. Would strongly recommend.
Read moreThere is also a phenomenal view of the city, especially if you are eating around the time of sunset.

Wonderful, beautiful view and kind owner. - Edit
A beautiful, set menu and also a la carte menu with many vegan options for diners to choose from.
Read moreThe Set A was delicious and worth the 55k won. You may need to look close for the signs, but please note it is on the 9th floor of the building.
Pros: Food is delicious , Host is warm and speaks English/Korean, Location is astounding

A vegan restaurant that will fool a meat-eater - Edit
I liked that the menu was asian-inspired without trying to replicate exactly specific dishes. However, the Tonkatsu would fool a meat-eater! The flavour and texture were perfect. We also had a mushroom and rice dish which was simple but full of flavours. And the portions are generous too!
Read moreAlso it's just a 20-minute walk along the shore from Gwangalli, so perfect to either finish the day or start the night!
I will definitely go again.

Delicious and calming - Edit
Came for the food stayed for the atmosphere. Stand-out dish was the fried beancurd with rice. Also had the avocado sushi role which was nice but I have had better similar dishes elsewhere. The yoghurt/pudding type dessert was yum. The place was calming and a nice space to spend an hour eating. Would come back and try other dishes.

Delicious Temple Cuisine - Edit
Vegan and allium-free eatery serving Korean temple cuisine. There's a 9-course meal available only with advanced reservation, 7-course meal available for order on the day of visit, and an a la carte menu. I got the Lotus Leaf Rice Set which allowed me to try a variety of items, and I found it quite value-for-money, since the menu leans towards being on the pricier side. Food was delicious and not bland at all despite not using alliums. Located some distance away from Gwangalli Beach (known as a good spot for viewing Gwangan Bridge light-up every night and Gwangalli M Drone Light Show every Saturday), closer to Millak Waterside Park. You can stroll there or take a bus!

Veganes Essen auf hohem Niveau - Edit
Man merkt, dass sich bei der Zubereitung Mühe gegeben wird. Leider war die Klimaanlage etwas kalt eingestellt und die Hintergrundmusik etwas eintönig. Das Restaurant verdient aber trotzdem alle 5 Sterne.

Fantastisches authentisches Templefood - Edit
Eine Tempelküche im 9. Stock mit Blick auf den Hafen und die Gwangandaegyon Brücke. Das essen schmeckt fantastisch, die Mahlzeiten sind üppig, der Service ist sehr freundlich und das Ambiente ist schlicht aber edel gehalten. Ganz nach der Buddhistischen-Tempelküchen-Tradition beginnt auch die Karte mit einer Weisheit und der Philosophie des Restaurants.

Pros: Geschmack, Ambiente, Ausblick

Late Dinner - Edit
After a long day of exploring in Busan, I was grateful to come across a vegan spot that was still opened. I was so excited to try this place out based on the amazing reviews, so I had high expectations. The food was okay. I appreciated the options/effort and made the most out of the dishes we ordered.

Decent. - Edit
From reading the reviews, we expected more. The food was decent, but the prices are high for what it is. It's also a bit out of the way.
Read moreWe had a mushroom and tofu dish, which was good and a sushi roll that was ok. Dessert was also good.
Service was friendly, though slow.

Delicious traditional food - Edit
I ordered the Lotus Leaf set (minimum order of 2) and it was amazing. An all vegan bento box with mixed grain rice steamed inside a lotus leaf topped with pine nuts and beans, sweet and sour vegan “pork”, fried vegan cutlet, salad with tahini dressing, some fruit, natto, tofu stew, side dishes: kimchi, pickled lotus slices, greens and vegan dried squid, dessert: vegan yogurt topped with apricot purée, shaved chocolate and almonds. The space is spacious, peaceful and they have a lovely Japanese toilet too!!

Worth making the effort for - Edit
We visited here on our last night in Busan and it was worth the effort. Lots of choice, from stir fried vegetables and noodles to avocado rolls but we had the temple style food which was incredible and included some homemade vegan yoghurt as a dessert too.
