Comments:

  • Found my top restaurant on Jeju Island, conveniently situated near a well-known tourist site on the island's east, ensuring easy access.

  • This place came highly recommended by our tour guide and it did not disappoint.

  • The restaurant excelled in serving some of the freshest seafood available, with the grilled mackerel standing out as a personal favorite, characterized by its crispy exterior and moist interior, highlighting its freshness and superior quality.

  • Another highlight was the sea urchin seaweed soup, a dish traditionally consumed on birthdays in Korean culture, offering an exquisite flavor profile that was both uniquely marine-inspired and delicious.

  • The culinary experience at this restaurant was memorable for its ability to deliver authentic, ocean-fresh flavors, especially encapsulated in the exceptional dishes like the grilled mackerel and sea urchin seaweed soup.
