It was my first time visiting, and I found the izakaya of my life! The Shimesaba bread is huge and delicious. To finish, be sure to order pollack roe ochazuke :)

The atmosphere is crazy about this place... It's really good, the aged raw fish is chewy and fresh and delicious, the nabe is delicious, there are a variety of drinks, and the owner is friendly. There's nothing bad about this place.. I'm full of intention to visit again🤩

Kyaha… I finally found out that there is a good izakaya like this on Sharosu-gil. First of all, the sashimi and nabe here are really delicious. Also, the atmosphere here is great! The speakers were really good, so I listened to music in a daze. The music selection was also to my taste!! Jazz is constantly playing, so it’s a great date spot!!

Wow, this restaurant really has a great atmosphere. If you don't like noisy bars, it has a very nice and charming atmosphere with a feeling between a jazz bar and an izakaya. I didn't know there was a place like this in Sharosu-gil, but I highly recommend it for a date on a special day! The music selection was so good that I almost got absorbed in the music during my stay. The food was also of a high standard, so each and every dish was delicious. I plan to visit next time to try more of the menu items I didn't try. The owner was kind and I felt like I was comforted for a while during my busy daily life. ^^

This is a hidden restaurant I found on Sharosu-gil✨️ After tasting the cream cheese and crackers served as appetizers, I felt that this place was unusual. As expected, I was impressed once by the first menu, Sukseonghoe, and once by the second menu, grilled melon, and saved it as a favorite. This time I had it with draft beer, but next time I plan to try it with sake. The warm shrimp ball nabe soup and shrimp balls were very delicious💗 The owner was friendly and the atmosphere was very nice.

Wow, this is a great restaurant. The lamb ribs are grilled over a fire, so they have a very good flavor and juiciness. The vegetables are also grilled, so the sweetness comes out and is delicious. You really have to try the Mackerel Isobe Maki. Isn’t Shimesaba as good as it gets? The quality of the boiled pork and cold vegetables is also good. The sauce is delicious and the meat is not tough or dry. It's very good when eaten with cucumbers and vegetables. The angeling remains in the beer until the end. The beer tastes good. Everything is delicious. The date course is very good. It's good to watch the owner cook in the open kitchen and chat while watching. The kitchen is very clean, so I trusted it.

I went to Gian Izakaya on Sharosu-gil and the atmosphere was really nice. It was quiet and softly lit, perfect for a date, and the quality of the food exceeded expectations. The shrimp ball casserole had a clean and deep broth that was truly attractive, and the grilled mero was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, giving it a luxurious taste. I even ordered lamb ribs, and they were so soft and flavorful without any unpleasant smell that I kept coming back to them. Overall, the food was clean and harmonious, so it seems like a place where you can't fail no matter what you order. Highly recommended to those looking for an izakaya with a nice atmosphere on Sharosu-gil!

I found this place while looking for a quiet bar at Seoul National University Station! This is a place where you can chat while enjoying delicious food and drinks with soothing music! It was nice to know a good place for a date. The sashimi was served according to the season and was fresh and not fishy at all. I also ordered grilled lamb ribs, which were grilled just right and melted gently. I only drank highballs, but there are various types of sake and whiskey, so keep that in mind!

The photos are not from the same day. Jian has already visited several times! It was good alone, as a couple, or as a group of three. First of all, the quality of the food is high. It's good to try various sakes one by one after entering the sake bar. The music is calm, so it was good to talk alone. It stays late, but no matter when you visit, the warm atmosphere is friendly. I only want to know, but I have to stay for a long time, so I hope it goes well!

I’ve been to Sharosu-gil many times, but I never imagined there was a place where I could enjoy drinks in such a good atmosphere...! Jian has such a great vibe. On top of that, they serve high-quality seafood-focused side dishes, and because the owner is so meticulous, every dish is plated neatly, which I really liked. What I liked most was the sound. The owner’s song selection was also wonderful, and the calm atmosphere was so relaxing that I just chilled the whole time haha. Highly recommend!
