The best high-end restaurants in Seoul!
1. Jungsik Seoul | Korean Fusion
The extensive variety of international labels found on the wine list matches the elegance of the menu. Multi-course menus are served in the main lounge, but you can have a more casual drink at Bar Jungsik, which is located on the first floor of the restaurant. There you can order a plate of seafood stew or a sea urchin and a seaweed paella and enjoy it in a more relaxed atmosphere.
2. Mingles | Global korean
His craftsmanship has earned Mingles a Michelin star thus far and he has also caught the attention of foodies around the world for his daring creations like white kimchi wrapped in foie gras and lamb marinated in soybean paste.
5. Gaon | Korean
Gaon is another of Seoul's 3 Michelin star restaurants. Like La Yeon, the goal of this restaurant is to enlighten customers about the high-end possibilities of traditional Korean food. Instead, the dining "space" consists of five private dining rooms. There are very few seats, so reservation is essential.
3. La Yeon | Korean
One of the two 3 Michelin star restaurants in Seoul, it sits on the rooftop of the Shilla Seoul Hotel and offers spectacular views of the city. Kim introduces traditional Korean dishes to modern territory through contemporary technique and presentation, a culinary tactic that elevates the more classic dishes.
4. Soigne | Contemporary
Sleek, small, and decorated in a black and white color scheme, Soigne could very well be the most cosmopolitan restaurant in Seoul. Each menu focuses on a certain theme, from the aromas of herbs and spices to dishes inspired by the Korean coast.
