With the review below - Edit
I was with the review below, and it was stressful to have to explain everything to the staff.
Read moreThe bread was served with honey so we had to ask them to swap it for olive oil.
Overall, the food was good & great value for money considering the freebies, but I would only recommend going if you're confident enough in your Korean speaking abilities to fight for them to cook your pasta in water instead of chicken broth.
Very disappointing/concerning that they didn't mention this cooking method to people before when they've explained that they don't eat meat.

PASTA COOKED IN CHICKEN STOCK - Edit
I asked them if the alio olio & tomato pasta could be made vegan. He said no because the pasta was cooked in chicken stock. I have been to this restaurant TWICE previously and asked both times and they said it was vegan no problem. I told him that and he was shocked.
Read moreI asked him if he could cook the pasta in just water instead of chicken stock and he looked at me like I was crazy and said 'if we do that it won't look good'. in the end he agreed but I had to fight for it 💪 he said ONLY the alio olio could be done without chicken stock, absolutely not the tomato pasta (he didn't explain why) SO the bread sticks were still good and the pasta was good but just be prepared to barter if you wanna come here!
Pros: free delicious bread stick, free drink, free sorbet
Cons: not veggie friendly, secret chicken stock

So happy - Edit
I stumbled across this place by accident. It's super cozy and the staff is super kind. He fully understood my basic Korean when I asked if there is meat or seafood in the tomato pasta (since often there is) and he pointed out the tomato pasta and Alio Olio as being without meat and seafood on the menu.
Read moreI chose the Tomato pasta (13000₩) and was surprised when I was served a piping hot, freshly baked bread stick. The dip turned out to be honey, not olive oil, but delicious nonetheless (since I'm just vegetarian it wasn't an issue).
The pasta was really good. Definitely tasted housemade and the spaghetti were cooked perfectly.
I was surprised a second time when I got served a scoop of housemade tangerine sorbet as a free dessert. Delicious.
I really enjoyed the ambience and the food. And the staff was super kind. I left very happy and satisfied.
I felt like I experienced fine dining or a three course meal but I paid a normal dinner.
Pros: Kind staff, Great pasta but not expensive , Complimentary bread stick and sorbet
Cons: Only two veggie options , No English , Didn't see a restroom, but also didn't ask.
