This place is great. Back in an alley of Itaewon, Nekkid Wings is small and seems to always have a wait. To get a table, you put your cell number in and they text you when itâs ready. As for the food, I got soy wings and honey butter wings. I wish I had gotten all soy! Sooo good. As I said, I donât even like wings but a friend was there so I joined her. The wings had a lot of meat on them and were delicious. I thought the honey butter wings were too sweet but decent. You can also get ranch or blue cheese for the wings and a side of carrots and celery. All in all, a great meal. I would definitely go back!

Park Cafe is the restaurant in the Marriott Executive Apartments of Yeouido Park in Seoul.During my 8-months of stay in the MEA, I have come to Park Cafe almost every day mostly for breakfast. Park Cafe offers a variety of high-quality of the food for all kinds of palates (European, Asian, etc). You will surely love the food, but what will really impress you is the service of the employees! I have travelled a lot around the world and the attention of the employees at Park Cafe is the perfect example of Korean perfectionism and attention to little details which make you feel like a king. This is specially important when you are new in a country and you don't speak the language and know nobody. The staff took care of me very well over my stay. Thanks Leeny, Katie Lee, Hyewon, HyeYoung, MinJeoung, YeonOk and also the cooking staff for making my stay in Korea an unforgettable experience. Keep up the good work!! Note: Park Cafe also organizes weekly barbecues when the weather is good for a reasonable price and is well known for accommodating company events. I have used as well Park Cafe for a couple of business meetings and my customers were as well content with the food and the service. Simply put, try Park Cafe since it clearly guarantees success!

I had dinner twice at this wonderful restaurant during my stay at the hotel. The server remembered me (and my choices) the second time I brought my family. Steaks are their main sell and done excellently. They also had a good choice of wines to compliment the meals. Dear. TravellerExoticaGood morning, this is manager of BLT Steak, Mark Kim. Thank you very much for your valuable comment and rating. I am very happy that you have enjoyed our food and service.

Brisket was decent. It was decent. However, the ribs were dry and it felt like it had been reheated many times before being served to us. The portions were Korean sized, so 3 person meal will feed 2. Soft drinks were over priced at 4,000 won.

I would like to start this review with 1) My review, 2) Negatives, 3) Positives and 4) Recommendations. 1) Review- Location was easy to find (above Jamsil subway station, level 4 of Lottie World Mall)- Price was reasonable at US$100 (KRW 112000 daily rate) and 50% for children below 13- Food was overall very good, each food station [our favorite, how many times (x?)]: Steamed lobster [steamed lobster x2], live seafood [ì°ëì§/long arm octopus x1], sashimi & sushi [Did Not Try], grilled meats [beef ribs x2 and butter grilled lobster x2], traditional korean [kimchi x3], south/east asian [chill mud crab x4], tropical fruit/juice [strawberry (below average) x1, mango (normal) x2, water melon juice x1], coffee and ice cream [coffee (below average) x1, ice cream x2], dessert [Did Not Try] and drinks very all good quality and well stocked.- Standard of coffee (Long Black (aka Americano in Korea) and Cafe Latte) is generally below average in Korea. But, this place was below that below average.- Service was very efficient. Staff seemed lost and did not speak English very well.2) Negatives- Let me tell you that it was very very very hard to book a table for 4 adults and 1 child as a foreigner by email. I'd admit that I was late into the game and tried to book only 2 weeks but still it was very painful to send 5 emails to 3 different people without any replies. Management should be more professional to cater for for visitors. - Staff spoke little or no English, at most times seemed confused to what they are suppose to do (this is normally 3 star of below hotel standard)- Kitchen staff were very inflexible, for example asked sashimi chef to provide a plate of "raw fish off sushi as sashmi", he stated that they only have limited allocation per diners, hence, can not to that. So I requested for 1 person, then he said he was not allowed. Anyways, I did not like sashmi on offer so did not take any from that station.3) Positives- On arrival we were escorted to out table and basic house rules were provided- Individual food quality was very good, but not excellent or amazing4) Recommendation- You can find email addresses on other reviews. They take book from 1st of month for next month, so if you can book by email (refer to other reviews), then definitely worth a visit.

Staying for five days in Seoul,Iâve had my fill of Korean food and wanted something different but familiar. I craved for a burger and fortunately,we are staying quite near to Brooklyn The Burger Joint is Seorae. I ordered The Works (bacon,onion,cheese,tomato etc) and it did not disappoint. I chose the âhandmadeâ option,a big patty of juicy,tender,lightlyseasoned beef just the way I like it. The fries on the side were humongous. It was very satisfying. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Stayed at JW Marriott Dondaemun Square for 10 days. Every morning we enjoyed buffet breakfast at Tavolo restaurant offering a vast Korean, European, Asian, and American culinary delites. Even though a self service buffet, the restaurant staff saw to our every needs and comfort.One standout crew member, is Sophia. She is exceptional in hospitality. Every morning greeted us with her warm smile and greeting. When Sophia noted that we had a cough, she brought over a pot of hot water served with honey and lemon slices. Cough was gone by and of day. The food and beverage manager, Para Kim, is also a notable standout for providing excellent service.All professional front desk staff very helpful with information on hotel, getting around in the city, and interesting places to visit.JW Marriott made us feel like the Dondaemun Square address is our home away from home.Hello, thank you very much for visiting Tavolo 24 and making a great review on the TripAdvisor. Because you talked about the service of Sophia, which is a Tavolo 24 employee, it was an opportunity for the employees to think about the service mind once again. If you visit us next time, we will make you happy with our great service. I hope you made good memories while staying at our hotel for 10 days and hope to see us again soon.Thank you very much.Tavolo24,Elly Jin
