Disappointed

After reading the amazing reviews I went here with my partner. We had the bean cutlet and mushroom soup as they seemed to be the most hyped about dishes. The cutlet was nice, but not very filling. The soup was just not good in our opinion, maybe this will be your taste if you love mushrooms, but for us it was an overkill. There were at least 4 different types of mushrooms in there and a mushroom broth. To us it felt like every bite was the same flavour.

The vibes in the restaurant were very fancy, which caused us to expect something better. Also there was a big screen playing ads the whole time which felt very out of place. When my partner had to cough a little, the staff from the kitchen actually opened the curtain to look at him? This made us feel not welcome at all.

We've eaten at better vegan/vegetarian places in Busan, but if you're in need for a vegan meal and in the area it's probably worth it.

Creative and fresh food 🥑

Beautiful restaurant located next to the sea. The place is spacious, and every dish we tried was absolutely delicious! I especially loved the Avocado Rolls, they were so fresh and full of flavor. Many of the dishes feature mushrooms, but in very creative ways, with interesting textures and delicious combinations.
The staff were incredibly friendly as well: the chef came over to let us know that they had run out of vegan ham for the Gimbap my partner had ordered, and offered to replace it with their own black sesame tofu mix, which we didn’t mind at all: it was actually absolutely delicious!
The prices are slightly higher than other vegan spots we visited, but still quite reasonable.

Overall, a wonderful experience, and we’ll definitely be returning on our next trip to Busan. 🤍🌱

Overrated, not for a sigle person

I read that last order would be at 7.40 pm so I hurried to get there on time and arrived around 7.20 pm. There was no staff so I rang the bell but no one showed up. After 10 minutes finally a young woman showed up and told me they have no seats left (which was a lie, they just didn’t want to let anyone in anymore). I begged a bit because I came all the way and I didn’t know where else to get vegan food in this area. She finally gave me a table but I had to hurry to order before 7.40 pm. I wanted to take the soup with the crispy rice things but she said that’s usually a dish for two people. I asked for the set menu but that’s also not for one person. So I decided for Sushi and Fake meat. I think those are also dishes you usually order to share in a group. So it was a bit too much but only the fake meat or only the sushi would have been too little. The food was good but nothing special. The price was high and in my opinion not worth the experience.

Delicious and satisfying

This place is located on the 9 Th floor of a building facing the water.
I came with a group of nine and ordered the family style. The dishes just kept coming constantly. My favorite was the kimbap, which is like a sushi roll and the fried mushrooms. We had so many mushrooms! Everything was delicious.

For dessert we had soy yogurt with marmalade and a dusting of chocolate powder that was just OK. I wish they had better desserts. 

Pros: Mushrooms!!, Kimbap, Generous portions

Cons: Lack of deserts

Taste, Portions, Prices, Super!

The staff were very, very kind. They gave me recommendations about what might be too much to order. I was skeptical it would be filling enough, but when I finished it was a *perfect* portion. not too full, just perfectly satisfied!

I couldn't get a new sea/ocean view because of the many others enjoying the food, but I had a nice experience anyway!

I've never had a dish so mushroom centered be so hearty and so filling. Even though I love mushrooms I often feel mushroom based dishes at vegan places often leave me still hungry. And the pickles were outstanding!

Pros: Perfect Portion!!, Delicious food, all ingredients

Incredible mindful healthy food!! We had the spicy mushroom rice stew, the avocado roll, and the vegan katsu ham cutlet with all of the banchan from kimchi to pickled peppers and more... Everything was impeccable and we love this place dearly.

Amazing vegan food

Everything was perfect, the portion, the flavours the texture, so happy to have found this place during my trip to Busan, which is not the most vegan friendly place…

Tasty Food with Minor Inconveniences

At our fist visit, we were unlucky since they had an event and only two options were left. However, the spicy soup and fried beancurd were tasty. At our second visit, they had no avocado left, so we couldn't try the avocado rolls. Thus, we opted for the beancurd again because it was delicious and got the mushroom rolls. Those were tasty although the teriyaki sauce was not prominent. The non-alcoholic beer was average and should have been a bit colder.
We recommend going there for lunch or at least in the late afternoon to avoid any disappointments.
You can buy some of their mock meat directly at the restaurant and have a fortune cookie as well which are nice touches. The good view towards the sea is restricted to two tables.

Great spot at the top

The food was good. It reminded me a lot of foods you can find at the temple which usually does not use aromatics like garlic and onion.
It was delicious and enjoyed by myself and friend.

Mr Marko

The food is amazing but the staff has very bad and ugly attitude.
First day we arrived at 19:41 and since they stop taking orders at 19:40 they did not let us order anymore just for being late one minute. After countless minutes of arguing the Lady finally served us but she only allowed us to order 2 dishes. After ordering the food the waitress did not let us sit and she said we can only take out.
We decided to give it another chance but we were met with the same situation.
Too bad that the restaurant has such a good dish but the waitresses ruin the whole experience. We Will not return here.

Pros: Food

Cons: Disgusting behaviour from the staff, Unproffesional, Egoistic

Cute spot, incredible views, food

Brought my birth family here to try vegan food. Thank you so much for letting me treat my birth family to this meal. They never went to a vegan restaurant and they loved it! I enjoyed crispy fried mushrooms, hubby ordered a spicy dish, my parents enjoyed mushroom bulgogi, and my brothers, sister in law and nephew enjoyed the katsu.

My birth mom liked her meal so much she made a version of her meal for our breakfast the next day!

Good service, foreigner friendly, good view in some seats

Very kind and good service. Menu was a bit hit or miss for me, soup was quite bland and not especially spicy (particularly for Korea) despite being warned but the Tofu and banchan were really delicious.

Pros: Service, Quick

Good food

We enjoyed our dinner here. Very tasty and well presented. They were friendly and it has a great view. The description says it’s temple food, however, having just been to a temple I would say it’s fancier than that.

Kinda posh vibes 7/10

If you like fine dining and that this place is great for you. I ordered one of the set menu meals and had I think 5-7 courses and they were all solid but nothing blew me out of the water like crazy, they have lots of options though.

Defo recommend quick service as well on the slightly more expensive side but it's calm. The serving staff were nice but had slight issue trying to order the set menu for 2/3 of us and having the other order seoertley but apart from that it was fine. Cool being so high up as well whilst eating.

Amazing

The food here was fantastic. I’ve seen a lot of people complain saying the restaurant is too expensive which I vehemently disagree with. The food is delicious and the servings are large and very filling. Would strongly recommend.

There is also a phenomenal view of the city, especially if you are eating around the time of sunset.

Wonderful, beautiful view and kind owner.

A beautiful, set menu and also a la carte menu with many vegan options for diners to choose from.

The Set A was delicious and worth the 55k won. You may need to look close for the signs, but please note it is on the 9th floor of the building.

Pros: Food is delicious , Host is warm and speaks English/Korean, Location is astounding

A vegan restaurant that will fool a meat-eater

I liked that the menu was asian-inspired without trying to replicate exactly specific dishes. However, the Tonkatsu would fool a meat-eater! The flavour and texture were perfect. We also had a mushroom and rice dish which was simple but full of flavours. And the portions are generous too!
Also it's just a 20-minute walk along the shore from Gwangalli, so perfect to either finish the day or start the night!
I will definitely go again.

Delicious and calming

Came for the food stayed for the atmosphere. Stand-out dish was the fried beancurd with rice. Also had the avocado sushi role which was nice but I have had better similar dishes elsewhere. The yoghurt/pudding type dessert was yum. The place was calming and a nice space to spend an hour eating. Would come back and try other dishes.
