I thought this was a great dining experience, bringing in some really great flavours and ideas into each dish. I find for the experience that it was well priced. I liked everything and didn’t hate any particular dish. Definitely there were standouts too. The most surprising part of the whole experience was how absolutely delicious and smooth the coffee at the end was! We ended up buying a couple of the bottles, we were obsessed. I went there with my family and had a very nice time. I was very pleased that they allow children to dine here and have a special meal (beef bone soup, rice, dessert) planned out just for them. The chef comes by to explain all the courses and is very personable. The tilefish and hanwoo beef were just top notch. Come hungry as the tasting menu is quite substantial. I hope this place gets more attention and business as it is very deserving of it. We recently visited a Michelin Elegant and Fine Dining restaurant in Busan to celebrate a friend’s birthday. We had made a reservation a month in advance since we were a party of seven, and we were really looking forward to the experience. Unfortunately, due to heavy traffic, we arrived about 20 minutes late and couldn’t return to the hotel to change into more suitable attire. We immediately apologized for our delay, and the staff was understanding. Overall, the service was good, the food was fantastic, and the chef was very friendly, explaining each dish in detail. However, one minor downside was that the staff asked us to keep our voices down, even though the restaurant wasn’t crowded that evening. There were only two tables occupied: our group of seven and another couple seated at a distance. While we understood the restaurant’s fine dining atmosphere, it did dampen the celebratory mood a little. For those planning to visit, I would recommend dressing more elegantly and suggest keeping your group small—no more than four people—to avoid being too loud. Also, be mindful of the corkage fee if you plan to bring your own wine, as it’s on the pricier side. That said, you'll surely enjoy a delightful Michelin dining experience here.

Great first fine dining experience in Busan. Chef Park Ki Sub explained each of the dishes. Atmosphere was classy and ambient. The morille mushroom, buckwheat noodles flavour, and quality of the beef were the highlights. Definitely one to check out in Busan

Korean beef and the buck wheat noodle were awesome! Pricing wise I’m not sure what’s the typical fine cuisine pricing in Busan, dinner was 145,000 won per person and we also ordered a bottle of wine.
