Chinese

Ihwawon

이화원 Ihwawon (梨花園) means 'pear-blossom garden' — one blogger noted the Jeju restaurant writes it this way, unlike Beijing's Summer Palace (頤和園), which reads the same in Korean.

Compiled from 6 blog posts read in fullSources →

A Chinese restaurant on the second and third floors of a building at 20 Dalmaru-gil, Nohyeong-dong, Jeju City. It serves everyday dishes — yuni jjajang at 8,000 won, seafood jjamppong at 11,000, shrimp fried rice at 10,000 — alongside platters such as tangsuyuk (small 22,000) and set courses from 30,000 won a head. We read 12 posts dated February 2025 to October 2026. Three were about Beijing's Summer Palace and were set aside; one is a compilation of online reviews and two are delivery reviews, so everything about the room itself comes from the six posts by people who went.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.

What sets it apart

  1. Tea arrives as you sit down, two posts said: hot pu'er in February 2025, jasmine in March 2026 — the later writer said it cut the greasiness of the meal. Side dishes are pickled radish and zha cai, with kkakdugi mentioned in two posts.
  2. Accounts of the noise split: one post called it quiet, two said otherwise. A February 2025 visitor arrived just after 11 to an empty room that soon filled until it felt hectic; an October 2025 post said group dinners in the hall can get very loud and advised booking a private room for anything important.
  3. It takes reservations, two posts said. One writer, scouting venues for a family engagement meal, booked and ate there, liked the food, but felt the round-table seating would be awkward for the elders. An October 2025 post noted private rooms further inside.
  4. Two dine-in posts found the tangsuyuk batter crisp (Sichuan-style in February 2025, regular in June 2025); both delivery posts also said the batter is thin.

Parking

1 posts say you can park. None say you cannot.

Posts saying you can park1 of 6 posts

There is parking on the ground floor of the building. Only one visitor wrote from experience — a family in December 2025 who found it convenient. Another post carries a copied note saying eight cars fit, with possible double parking.

Where it is

Map showing where Ihwawon is

We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.

Getting inside

Second floor2 of 6 posts
Lift to the floor1 of 6 posts
Toilet inside1 of 6 posts

The restaurant starts on the second floor, as two posts noted. A February 2025 visitor said you can take either the stairs or the lift; a June 2025 post said the second floor holds most of the tables while the upper floors usually go to reservations and groups.

One post (February 2025) mentions a lift, but nobody wrote about a step at the door or getting in with a wheelchair or pushchair — we don't know, rather than know there isn't one. One post says the toilet is behind an automatic door inside; nobody said whether it is split by gender.

No one mentioned: In a basement · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot

Of the 9 posts we gathered, 3 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.

We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know

  • No post describes getting there by bus or on foot; we only know it is near the Nohyeong five-way junction.
  • No one wrote about waiting for a table. One post says it filled up around lunchtime, but nobody mentions a queue.
  • Who people came with doesn't converge: a friend, a husband, children with another family, and a group of six — one post each.
  • Opening hours appear only in copied blocks in three dine-in posts: two say 11:00-21:30 with last order at 20:50, one from December 2025 says 11:00-21:00 with last order at 20:30. Nobody mentions a closing day.
  • Prices held steady from February 2025 to April 2026 (seafood jjamppong 11,000, small tangsuyuk 22,000). A September 2026 delivery post shows 23,000 and 12,000 for jjamppong rice, but those are delivery-app prices, so we can't say the dine-in menu went up. One visitor called the prices reasonable.
  • Phone numbers differ between posts: 0507-1403-8806 in two, 064-749-8801 and 064-712-8886 in one each. Worth confirming before you call to book.
