Very nice food! - Edit
The restaurant’s information level about closing days was not existent online. The restaurant was closed for Chuseok and one day after. When we finally showed up on a day, where it was open, we got to try some dishes. We ordered at the small tablet at the table. Very nice food. Very glad we came back.
Read morePros: Ordering at tablet, Taste
Cons: Online information is very limited

Delicious food in quiet Insadong alley - Edit
One of the best vegan places I visited in Seoul. Generous portions and delicious food. The staff were friendly too. The interior is a pretty Hanok style construction. It is cool to have this so close to a busy touristy avenue. It feels quiet and isolated. There are a lot of TV screens playing kooky religious content, be warned. I didn't mind this at all but non vegan guests who are not accustomed to eating at religion/cult-affiliated restaurants may find it uncomfortable. The wheat meat (seitan) stew was my favourite dish here.
Read morePros: Delicious Korean food, Traditional Hanok interior, Friendly staff
Cons: Religious/confronting content played on TV screens, Tables a bit low for tall people

Kein schönes Ambiente, essen ok - Edit
Wir haben vier unterschiedliche Gerichte bestellt. Keins davon hat wirklich gut geschmeckt. Das Ambiente lädt nicht zum bleiben ein.

Not recommended for non-vegan friends - Edit
The food here is fine, its biggest positive is that it’s entirely vegan. But the atmosphere is uncomfortable in a way that I’ve never experienced in other vegan restaurants run by the group that follows the Supreme Master. There are too many TVs at eye level and they are all very close. If you come here with non-vegan friends. Expect that the food isn’t enough to make them enjoy the atmosphere.
Read moreThe food was exactly what you’d expect from one of these places, trending a bit on the less tasty side. I’m not in a rush to go back here.

Neblogai - Edit
Į televizorius nežiūrėjom, supratom iš kitų atsiliepimų, kad jie neverti mūsų dėmesio. Aptarnavimas patiko, maisto įvairovė taip pat. Patiko koldūnai, tteokbokki, priedai. Nuvylė alia sojos kepsneliai (neprisimenu kaip vadinasi), ėmėm plain, ne spicy, gal čia buvo klaida, nes kieti ir beskoniai. Tiesa, pamirkius tteokbokkių padaže tekstūra ir skonis pagerėjo.

Fideos varios - Edit
Estuvo todo muy delicioso, no tuve problemas para pedir (no hablo coreano), ya que se ordena mediante una pantalla. Te avisa cuando la comida tiene cebolla o ajo. Es todo 100% vegano, la comida llegó rápidamente, ingredientes frescos y los banchan estaban riquísimos.
Read morePros: Fideos frios! Los recomiendo al 100%, Dumplings de kimchi
Cons: El precio es un poco elevado

Very unbalanced food, atmosphere quite bad - Edit
Read moreThis restaurant is affiliated with the "Surpreme Master". There are at least three TVS playing Supreme Master TV. I have been to quite a few Loving Huts so I'm somewhat familiar and even though I don't like it, usually it didn't bother me too much. Here it is extremely in your face. We just did not enjoy being there.
My main critique was the food though. The portions were relatively big, but literally only the one thing that it said it is. So the rolled mushrooms for example, even though depicted with some additional greenery I the menu, were only mushrooms.
We ordered two mains, rice and an "egg" and received two small plates with banchan, which were the best part of the meal. Everything else was very greasy. Maybe we just ordered the wrong food. It was a little hard to finish to be honest.
We definitely won't come again. The only thing we liked was that it is completely vegan.

Good food, strange videos on the tv - Edit
We were in Insadong and this was the close restaurant to where we were located, so we decided to go here and from the outside, it honestly looked a little bit shady, so we weren't sure about it. The interior looks quite welcoming and it's easy to order food on the tablets located at the side of the table, and it's fully functioning in English too.
Read moreWe ordered several dishes to try: bulgogi, jjajangmyeon, fried chicken, dumplings and more. We have thoroughly enjoyed all of them and we believed all of them were very decently priced also. The fried chicken definitely made me happy because I don't want to eat actual animals and this made me feel as if I could also try the "traditional" Korean fried chicken.
The only thing that was a bit strange were the propaganda-like videos shown on the screen. I wasn't a fan, but I mostly didn't pay attention to it, but rather to the food, which I enjoyed.
Pros: Good food, decently priced
Cons: Strange videos on the TVs in several languages

Good food, but animal cruelty shown on TV - Edit
Ordered the soondubu jjigae and dumplings which were good, but the TV's showed videos of animals in poor conditions which is not something I would like to see while eating.

Antiabortista y desagradable - Edit
(Happy Cow no me deja poner solo una estrella porque el restaurante es vegano)
Read moreLa comida podrá estar más o menos buena pero, como se ha indicado en algunas opiniones, en el restaurante hay un par de televisiones que retransmiten un canal (con subtítulos en todos los idiomas) con mensajes antiabortistas y bastante sectarios.
No es cómodo ni agradable comer viendo esos mensajes, así que ni volvería ni recomendaría este restaurante. Me han dado ganas de irme sin pagar porque no quería dar ni un céntimo a gente con estas opiniones, pero no lo he hecho por educación.

Best place we've been in seoul - Edit
This food was amazing. We ate the sundubu jjigae and the Korean "chicken" wings which were made of mushroom. It was delicious and it came with various side dishes. You can order on a tablet so it's really easy.

I do not recommend - Edit
My friends and I had lunch in this restaurant recently. At first, everything seems fine until you pay attention to the TVs. A TV channel called "Supreme Master TV" broadcasts various clips, notably anti-abortion and pro-life. It seems to be the TV programme of a cult. It is unacceptable for such programmes to be broadcast. Even tho the food was okay, I absolutely do not recommend this place.

They had the best vegan dumplings for a good price!!! The fried soy protein was a bit bland but that’s on me for not getting the spicy ones.

A must try if you visit insadong.
Read moreAmazing varieties.
The locale is a weird mix of traditional Korean and modern vegan vibes. Resulting in a noisy ambiance, which isn't a bad thing, just setting the tone.

great ambiance, good vegan food - Edit
This place has a wide variety of vegan korean food. I ordered the bibimbap, and it was pretty good but unfortunately it was a little spicy, and they put the sauce over my whole meal and not on the side. There were a lot of dishes included in the price for the bibimbap bowl. This place is very affordable and a great value. It is in a traditional hanok house next to vegan dalsae which is also very good.
Read morePros: good value, good variety of food options
Cons: too spicy

Korean - Edit
A little into an alley off of Insadong is a cozy location. We had the black bean cold noodle and spicy tteokbokki. Entirely vegan and optional allium free as it’s run by Buddhists.
