Amazing vegan food

The food was amazing, especially the Tonkatsu! I was really surprised by how good it tasted and it was super crispy on the outside :)
Most prices were a bit high but it's worth it in my opinion.
The restaurant in general looks really nice and the view is amazing~

Pros: Amazing food, Free vegan miyeokguk for each person, Cold tea instead of water

Cons: A bit pricey

High quality!

Fantastic food, view and service! It was a very high-quality experience. But that is also shown in the price. Dishes are around 18-25k Won. But in my opinion, the service and the view justify that.
The food was also nice! I had a vegetable stew with rice noodles, which was served with seaweed soup. I also went for the yogurt, which was amazing. #Veganuary

Great place!

I was very happy with my meal here! Got the mushroom salad, the cutlet and a sushi roll. And of course dessert! Everything tasted great.

Great food for the price

I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant. Each dish was delicious and I left satisfied. I was a bit worried about the food not living up to it's higher price, but it was definitely worth it.

Good food and a view

This restaurant offers a variety of dishes that can be described as modern Korean and Asian-inspired fusion food. Note that they do temple-cooking, which means that common spices like garlic and onion are not used and the flavor will be different!

The menu features a course menu, large plates for sharing as well as individual dishes.
There are typical dishes such as Donkatsu 돈까스, Nurungjitang 누룽지탕 as well as kimbap rolls.

Most dishes are made "healthier and veganized", so there are more vegetables and food is less greasy! Overall, the food is good - especially if you enjoy that there is no aftertaste of garlic or onions. The dishes were also delightfully plated.

Rather than casual, it appears to be a more elegant restaurant for dining out. It is located on the top floor of a 9-story building and has many windows which allow a view towards the ocean.

Lovely food!

Delicious temple food. Had the tofu and grapefruit salad and cutlets. All lovely.
They have set menus but these are only for two or more, it would have been nice to taste more things, small plates.
Don't go for the views as the best one is out of the bathroom window haha.

Pros: Lovely temple food, Some of the dressings you can buy

Cons: Set menus for two or more only

Amazing food!

I highly recommend getting one of the set meals. Each plate is small but it adds up to be a good amount of food. It was a great way to taste many of the menu items and they brought us an extra dish. Very friendly as well!

Pros: All vegan, Nice atmosphere , Pretty veiw

Meh....???

Since I already went to HOME and Palmtree, this was last on my vegan tour of Busan.

Honestly, I was disapointed... I ordered a set menu which was special for the day (vegan sweet and sour pork/tangsuyuk/탕수육, vegan spicy seafood soup/jjamppong/짬뽕, and salad). The price was great for all of them, but the taste was... not good... I usually finish all of my food but I didn't really want to... I have had other vegan versions of these dishes, so it's not that I'm unfamiliar with them.. they just weren't great.

While the restaurant is also meant to be an "upscale" place, the chairs and other fixtures in the restaurant look old and tattered... Maybe it was upscale a few years ago, but these days it's a little shabby...

The bathroom was good and clean, and there was a decent view because it is located so high. I saw another person eating alone there who seemed to be a foodie (taking lots of pics of the menu, asking questions, etc) but I didn't stick around to see his reaction...

I might try this place again if I'm in the area (it's close to Gwangangli), but I won't go there on purpose.

Pros: Good location

Cons: Not tasty, Looks shabby

Great food. Amazing atmosphere!

First vegan experience in Busan. I ordered their vegan yogurt and Avocado rolls. The avocado wasn’t the freshest and was a little old but the rest of the roll tasted good. The vegan yogurt was amazing.. Relaxing atmosphere.

Pros: Good food , Relaxing atmosphere with kinds hosts , Reasonable price

Cons: Some ingredients a little stale on my visit.

Get the cutlets!!

We had the Lotus leaf set menu and the cutlets. The cutlets were my favourite!! So crunchy and delicious. A bit pricey compared to other places but more of a fine dining experience.

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly staff

Wow.

This. Place. Was. Amazing.
We waited for the food for a bit longer than expected, but once it had arrived – just wow. Seriously.
Do NOT skip the avocado roll. Everything we tried was SO good.
You should definitely try this place.

Hard to find, but worth it!

I'm so glad I made it to this wonderful restaurant! It was hard to find, but totally worth it. I ordered the rice with mushrooms dish and it was absolutely perfect. Not overly seasoned, but just a big hearty plateful of fresh vegetables and mushrooms. It felt more like good home cooking than restaurant food. It was so reassuring to know that everything (including the side dishes) was vegan. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful and I felt so relaxed looking out towards the sea. I was also impressed that the price was not too expensive at all and there was a good selection of one-person dishes so I could easily eat there by myself. Note the name of this place is "Vege Narang" (베지나랑) if you want to search on a map etc.
