Cool place

The french fries with truffle oil were 5/5. The menu is a bit on the pricey side (not for German but for Korean prices). The place itself has a very cool and relaxed atmosphere like a pub. You're able to eat delicious food and also drink as much as you want. 1 bottle of Soju is 5000 Won, 1 bottle of Cass or Terra also 5000 Won.

They don’t open at 12.

I went there at 12 and it’s closed.
Went again at night. Food was OK. I ordered tofu soup and fried enoki. Tofu soup was quite bland for my taste and the enoki was good!

Went twice while in Busan

They had a separate vegan menu and lots to choose from. Everything was tasty but we liked the Sichuan noodles the best. Loved the aesthetic of the interior decoration. Staff were very friendly. Highly recommend.

Great vegan options!

Separate vegan menu with many options. Great place to go if you are with non vegan friends or family! The food is really good! The owner sometimes gives free appetizers as well. Great location in seomyeon and open until 2am! So if you need some vegan food after partying… go here haha.

Get the Vegan Omakase!

I loved that they had a complete vegan section in their menu and even a vegan omakase!

Let me just say each dish was done so nicely with a lot of attention to detail. At first glance I probably wouldn’t have taken a second look at the bread or salad, but luckily I got the omakase because even those managed to impress me. The bread is simple but instead of a butter, it was this creamy, slightly sweet sauce that was frozen in a shaved ice dessert form (not the clunky ice but the thin layers of ice which is a specialty dessert in korea?) and topped with truffle.
My favorites though were the eggplant, each eggplant was cooked so darn well, like a true eggplant should be cooked. Only Asians cook eggplants this way. The eggplant should never be firm or rubbery, this one literally could melt in your mouth. Imaging biting into a crunchy sugar shell (of a sweet, spicy and tangy sauce) and having the hot eggplant just spill out into your mouth. It’s amazing.
The fried rice was absolutely amazing as well. Coming from a Chinese restaurant family…I always hear my dad go on about what makes a good fried rice and this had it! Never again can anyone serve a mediocre fried rice with cabbage and corn. This was filled with chives, green onion, fried garlic, and had just the right amount of oil and “wok air”. It’s cooked exactly like one of my old favorite Hong Kong fried rices from before I went vegan.
The soup also really hit the spot. It came in a black stone bowl giving vibes of kimchi soup, but had a super kick of spice and lemongrass - I had never had a soup that spicy before, but it was so good.
This spot gave me vibes of Asian fusion with an essence of Korean hospitality.
Definitely worth trying. I want to go back and try some of the other dishes like their knife cut noodles and enoki mushroom. But until then…

Pros: Eggplant crisp, Fried rice, Soup

Also forgot to mention after the bread that the salad had pieces of lychee and fried garlic, with the micro greens which really elevated the flavors.

Nothing special

The fried enoki were super oily and a little bland. The cauliflower was good but not enough sauce- do to that they were a bit dry.

Can’t recommend enough!

We were intending to go down the road for Daejon Cafe but it was closed. We aren’t sad about it as this was the best dining experience we’ve had in South Korea. A specific vegan menu with lots of options. We ordered 4 dishes between 2, which was plenty. Strong flavours and a lot of spice. Atmosphere is great too - very cosy.

Pros: Varied and clearly labelled menu, Flavoursome, Atmosphere

Just what I craved!

This was a really good rice noodle soup! Enjoyed it thoroughly. Bit of a warming for people who don't handle spicy very well. The vegan menu was available in a separate category which made it very easy to find. Many options available and the shop looks really cool! Though for drinks the choose was small, alcohol or carbonated drinks, which I personally both don't drink.

Many options for vegans!!

They have english version of the menu and quite a variety for non-vegan place! Took my non-vegan friends there and ordered the vegan fried chicken (which was cauliflower) and truffle fries. I ordered the tomyum noodles. SO GOOD and the cauliflower was FIRE 👌👌👌

Fantastic, cool atmosphere

The tofu in the vegan maradosak was delicious - the texture reminded me of toasted marshmallow! Eggplant chips portion was generous and particularly delicious. Tofu bao bun was ok but not very exciting (and veggie only).

I wasn’t keen on the deep fried ice cream (not vegan) but husband liked it.

Pros: All food very tasty, Vegan options very clear and easy to order, Lots of alcoholic drink options

Cons: Also serves meat (lots of choice for non-veggies), Not many exciting non-alcoholic drinks, More tofu in the noodle dish would make it better

At least try the eggplant chips!

We ordered the vegan Omakase (a selection of 5-7 dishes by the chef) and it was freaking delicious. We also got something that wasn’t on the menu, which was offcourse a nice suprise. If you choose the omkase option you don’t have to worry that it won’t be enough. If you don’t want a whole menu, please do not forget to try the eggplant chips. Those were amazing and is a favortie for vegans AND non-vegans.
Plus nice colorful vibe!

I absolutely recommend this place!

Pros: Eggplant, Variety, more than enough food in the omakase option

Great vegan options

We went here thanks to Happy Cow when Dajeon (a fully vegan place nearby) was closed that night. The vegan options at Tae Tae Tae were excellent. You order from a tablet on the table which has multiple language options. We had vegan omakase for two and it was excellent.

Pros: Great vegan options, clearly labelled , Fun atmosphere

Full page of vegan options

Everything was delicious and beautifully presented! Very nice atmosphere and vibe with great service. We did the 'chef's selection' (35k per person) - next time I'd just order a la carte, I'm not sure this was good value for money.

Monday lifesaver ;)

After trying unsuccessfully to find a vegan place that is also open on a Monday, I finally got to TaeTaeTae. It was a bit hard to find, but I am glad I did, very nice service with special vegan options and lovely food.

Pros: Service, Catered for vegan , Sweet details

Easy to see the vegan options, delicious food

There are several vegan options easily visible on the screen you use to order. The staff I spoke to spoke very good English too. My favourite was the vegan stir fry (fried in pea oil). If contains flat, wide ride noodle pieces and a few pieces of tofu. It’s not a huge portion but enough for me.

Pros: Food was excellent , Vegan food is clearly marked, Easy to communicate with staff

Ein Traum für Vegetarier und Veganer in Korea

Nach bereits zwei Wochen in Korea in denen ich nur selten eine vegetarische Hauptmahlzeit bekommen habe war dieses Restaurant ein wahres Highlight! Das Essen war super! Es gab eine große Auswahl sowohl für Veganer als auch Fleischesser, das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich und auch das Ambiente hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir würden sofort wieder kommen 😁

Pros: Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und hilfreich, Das Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt, Das preis-leistungsverhältnis war super!

Amazing !!!

Food was amazing so we went back twice. First time I had mapo tofu, and the second the peking veg (the aubergine was incredible🤤). You can order on the tablet where the menu is in English. Staff are really friendly and explain things to you!

Delicious Food and Great Vibes!

I had the pleasure of visiting this Busan restaurant and I'm thoroughly impressed.

Despite not being entirely vegan, they offered a clearly labeled vegan menu in English. The food was delightful—our favorites included vegan chicken, fried mushrooms, Pad Thai, and the tempting fried ice cream (note: not vegan). By far the best vegan food in Busan.

5/5 stars if the evaluation were possible for non entirely vegan restaurants.

Pros: Vegan fried chicken, Fried mushroom mountain, Pad Thai

Great dining place with nice atmosphere. Asian fusion kitchen with separate vegan menu. Staff asks if anyone is vegan before bringing out the menu’s.
