One of the best Korean vegan restaurants - Edit
One of the very good Korean vegan restaurants in Seoul. Food is always of good quality. Good ambience. Good location in the heart of Insadong. They speak very little English, so communication can be a slight issue.

Go to for solid vegan options, come hungry - Edit
You order from your table via a little screen. Love the dumplings and the orange chicken. Had the same thing there twice. But there are several other great options. Worth it. Near a fun commercial walk street so nice getting there. Also vegan ice cream place next door for a sweet option after dinner. Restaurant also sells some take out vegan meats that are yummy, if you are traveling to an island that may have limited vegan options.

I don’t like Korean food… - Edit
…And this was one of the best meals I’ve had anywhere! Everything came quickly, it was fresh, and the prices were reasonable. The staff were super friendly as well.
Read moreThe only drawback is how COLD the air conditioning in the restaurant is! It was uncomfortable, and resulted in my food cooling so rapidly that I had to accept eating half of it like it’d just come out of a fridge. Even so, they were some of the best leftovers ever!
Pros: Delicious, Wide variety, Fair price
Cons: Freezing AC

Wide variety of Korean dishes, it's like a dream come true to taste Korean food that you keep seeing on the streets but can't eat. The staff are pleasant.

Loved it - Edit
This was my favourite spot during my seoul visit, all the food was just amazing and i went back twice. I was especially impressed by the fried “chicken” as i have never tried any meat alternative that was so crunchy and tasted genuine, I love that you can order on a screen by your table and the older lady who serves the food is very sweet, I would come back to korea just for this place

Best vegan spot for Korean food ! - Edit
I have known Osegyehan for many years, but just came back in Korea for traveling and still never disappointed. You have pretty much all the basic Korean food veganised. You order now with ipads, and the seats are not on the floor anymore but the Western way. I recommend for vegans to stay in Insadong when travelling in Seoul. I used to go almost every day to eat, you can pick a different dish each time. Even if you eat alone, they give you a lot of side dishes 반찬. I really like that. The vegan fried egg is really good ! Recommend it.

Really tasty - Edit
A huge selection of traditional dishes at a great price. Ended up sampling quite a bit of the menu 😅 The mandu were really delicious, also really enjoyed the fried chicken. Probably wouldn’t order the bibimbap or nurunji guk again, but they were okay.

You place the order on the tablet and the food is served. I got the vegan bulgogi which was outstanding, and the side dishes were really good too. Had a great experience here

Great Experience - Edit
A vegan snack bar that is somewhat hidden near the Insadong. The food is all vegan and very tasty.
Read moreThe prices are quite reasonable and the proportions are ample. Ordering is done via a tablet at the table. The dishes are also indicated in English. Water and tea are available free of charge.
The food is also fresh and quickly prepared. Since it is quite busy, you sometimes have to wait a few minutes until you get a table.
Pros: Delicious Food, Unconplicated order, Low prices

Excellent Korean food - Edit
I'll probably get through a few burgers while in Seoul, so it's exciting to sit and enjoy veganised traditional Korean fare. Food came quite quickly, good prices, and it's easy to order food through a screen.

Great choice of vegan food and perfect spice level - Edit
This was tucked away at the end of the road in a lovely old building. You can order via a touch screen in English which makes things a bit easier.
Read moreWe had the spicy tofu stew and tteokbokki with a side of dumplings. The tofu stew was amazing and the tteokbokki was the nicest we've tried in Korea, and obviously good to know that the sauce didn't have fish in it.
Pros: Great choice of dishes, Perfect spice level on the tofu stew

Tasty, traditional and cheap! - Edit
An absolute gem in a maze of alleyways. We tried the jjajjangmyeon (black bean noodles), naengmyeon (cold noodles) and doenjang jjigae (soybean stew) and they were all wonderful. It was so nice to finally get to try all the side dishes..😂The service was super quick and some staff members speak English. Will definitely come back!

Traditional korean food in vegan version - Edit
Delicious, spice level: not too intense 😀 As in most places in Korea: it's hard to communicate in English. The kimchi dumplings were the tastiest.
Read moreTradycyjne koreańskie jedzenie w wersji wegańskiej. Pyszne, poziom ostrości, nie zbyt intensywny więc super 😀 Jak w większości miejsc w Korei: ciężko się dogadać po angielsku. Najsmaczniejsze były pierogi z kimchi.

Wholesome cheap eats - Edit
Hidden in a little backstreet of insadong district this fully vegan restaurant has an abundance of options. You order via a digital screen at your table giving you plenty of time to look through the menu (in both Korea and English). Staff don’t appear to speak much English but that’s okay 😁 service is super quick too so turn around for tables is fast.
Read moreLots to pick from with meat alternatives too.
Portions are good but worth ordering more and sharing so you can try lots of different things.
The texture of the meat alternatives is fab and full of flavour in every meal.
This is a no brainer for any (vegan or not) visiting SK.
Pros: Menu offering, Quick service, Setting

Great food and service shame about the horrible footage the tvs are playing on a loop - Edit
Food was really tasty, especially the sweet and spicy fried "chicken". We got seated straight away, our food arrived quickly and there are even vegan instant noodles and snacks you can buy to take with you. I can't give it 5* because of the tvs that are everywhere playing a ridiculous vegan TV channel which includes footage of animals being slaughtered and dead children from the Syrian war, no one wants to watch this whilst trying to eat a meal
Read morePros: Service is fast, Spicy fried chicken is amazing
Cons: Please change the awful TV channel

Thank you for commenting about this. I wish I had been warned before going because I would have gone somewhere else. It felt a bit hypnotic & it creeped me out. I looked it up & it’s a cult thing. 😒 very sad

Hidden away at the end of an alley is this lovely but chaotic gem!
Read moreYou order through a tablet on your table, and the food comes fairly quickly. We ordered just after a table of 20 but didn't have to wait more than 30 mins for our food.
Owner speaks English well, but not the servers. Serve yourself tea and water.

Pros: Great food!, Big portions
Cons: Not the cleanest place
