Set menu prices per person, before service and drinks. Lunch menus are often shorter than dinner, and many are served on weekdays only.

Method

How the prices are counted

Per person, before service

Every figure is for one guest. South Korean menu prices include 10% VAT, and most restaurants add no service charge, so these are the full prices before drinks; some hotel restaurants add 10% service on top. Tipping isn't expected. Prices shown in other currencies use the day's exchange rate and are approximate.

Where prices come from

Dinner is the restaurant's main tasting course, and wine is the cheapest pairing for it where one is offered. Prices come from each restaurant's own website where they're published, otherwise from recent reviews and booking sites such as CatchTable. Lunch is the restaurant's lunch course, and the note says which days it's served.

Stars and Google rating

The Google reviews score out of 5 and the number of reviews, checked in October 2026. Stars come from the MICHELIN Guide Seoul & Busan 2026, announced in March 2026; green ▲ and red ▼ marks show the stars gained and lost in that guide.
