Jihwaja - Seoul

I had no idea that I went to a very traditional restaurant that served a kings tightly. I only knew they had a vegan cure and it was heavenly. it is very much pricey, but according to my opinion it is so worth it. this will be my going for vegan imagination.

Visited with my friend. Little pricey but worth it. Delicious and pretty foods. I recommend course meal to enjoy full experience.

I have great enthusiasm on Korean royal cuisine; never hesitated to spend extra money on this. After trying numerous restaurants serving royal cuisine, I dare to say this restaurant is one of the best. Price can be quite high, however, customers can get what they pay, highly distinctive food and service. We had Jineobyul Manchan and a wine (I forget the name of the wine) Atmosphere: Was noisy but cannot blame them. We were allocated in an isolated room but other customers in another room brought their spoiled kids and allowed them to go wild. Otherwise, nice and cosy. Service: Excellent. I could see they are proud of what they are serving; this proud was directly linked to excellent customer service. This allowed me to feel like they truly provide royal cuisine not selling royal food. Food was served with great explanation to allow us to know what we would eat, background of each dish and the best way to eat to taste the best flavour. Food: Overall great both taste and plating. Now I forget what it was but one was a bit blunt and disappointing. Nevertheless I decided to give them 5 stars because this was well compensated by other dishes. Personally, I do not like sinsunro; but their sinsunro was great; this let me know, in fact, sinsunro is a great food. Others: If you are visiting Korea and have enough budge, I would highly recommend to try full course from here. Nowadays, it is not hard to find Korean restaurants but not one serve royal cuisine. Even in Korea, it is hard to find restaurants serving decent royal cuisine with proper manner but this does.

Traditional Korean cuisine, excellent quality and very kind staff

The best quality and service. Not only does it look amazing but the taste itself is superb. Great place to bring someone who wants to try a proper unique korean cuisines. Simple explanations about the ingredients and how to eat helps you get the best taste. The staffs are well mannered also.They give you the best impression till the last minute which I consider the final course of the meal. 맛도 맛이지만 세심한 부분까지도 신경을 써서 손님들을 배려하는 모습이 좋은 곳입니다 보통 어느 정도 유명해지면 서비스의 질이 조금은 낮아지기 마련인데 지화자에선 그런 모습을 찾기 힘들었네요. 주택을 개조해서 만든 곳이라 모던함에서 벗어나 간만에 조용한 분위기에서 식사하고픈 분들에게 강추합니다
