La Cucina

Opened in 1990 and with sophisticated interior decoration, this is the first restaurant known to have served Italian cuisine in South Korea. It is on the way to Namsan Mountain so you can enjoy the view while trying the delicious course meals they offer.
With recent renovations came a more modern facade, higher ceilings, and two floors of dining space with stunning views, but the heart and soul of the restaurant is definitely the food that remains comfortingly familiar. The rich and silky tagliatelle with ragù and meat-sauce lasagna is the most selling dishes.
