Compiled from 16 blog posts read in fullSources →
An Italian restaurant on the 21st floor of the L7 Hongdae hotel, right by Hongik University Station, with wood-fired pizzas and pastas in the mid-20,000-won range and steaks from about 50,000 to 98,000 won. We read 17 posts from 10 June to 8 October 2026; 16 describe actually eating here. Most are wedding-invitation gatherings or dates, booked ahead to get a window seat over the city and shared across the table. From 7 to 10 a.m. it serves only the hotel breakfast. One post was a disclosed ad; five said they paid their own way.

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
- Five posts mention window seats: one said most tables are by the window, another could see N Seoul Tower in the distance, and one with a fear of heights found the floor-to-ceiling glass on the 21st floor a little scary. Several advise booking to get a window table.
- Seven posts say they booked. In one, a party of six had mistakenly been booked as two; staff rearranged the table on arrival and set out a high chair for the baby.
- Four posts got a discount, each a different way: an employee discount, a 25% late-bird deal, a Naver Pay promotion crediting 40,000 won on an 80,000-won bill, and a hotel-guest breakfast discount. One noted the hotel-guest discount does not apply to dinner at the restaurant.
- Five posts found the tables well spaced; one found the room smaller than expected. One mentions the high ceiling.

Only one post says from experience that parking in the hotel is easy. 'Two hours free in the L7 basement car park' and '3,000 won per extra 20 minutes' were copied from listings by several posts.

Where it 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.
From the station
2 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 3 (of 16 posts read) |
|---|---|
| Lift to the floor | 3 of 16 posts |
Posts put it on the 21st floor (one says 22nd), while the registered address says 19th; another post places the hotel's rooftop bar and pool on the 22nd.
Three posts say you take the lift to the 21st floor and step out at the entrance. One found the entrance a little hard to locate at first because the hotel shares the building, but said the hotel lobby in front of the restaurant was a comfortable place to wait for the rest of the group.
We don't know about steps at the entrance or wheelchair access. One group brought a baby, but no post mentions wheeling in a stroller. That means nobody wrote about it, not that access is lacking.
We don't know whether the toilets are inside the restaurant or separated by gender; one post only says they are clean, being in the hotel building.
No one mentioned: Second floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · 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 17 posts we gathered, 1 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
- One post from a booked 1 p.m. weekend lunch in June 2026 said there was a single floor server, so booked guests waited at the door while tables went uncleared, and the floor under their table was not clean; the server stayed friendly throughout. No other post describes this.
- Two posts say first-hand that it is close to Exit 1 of Hongik University Station; figures like '121 m' or 'one minute on foot' were copied from listings and not counted.
- No post describes queueing. One says booked guests waited for tables to be cleared, so we don't know how long walk-ins wait.
- Six posts give the same opening hours, 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily with a break from 10 to 11:30, and three give last orders at 9 p.m., but all of these were copied or heard. No post mentions a closing day.
- Prices mostly agree across posts. Only the bistecca with truffle risotto differs: 52,000 won on a June 2026 visit and 56,000 won in a July post. We can't tell if it went up or was miswritten.
- The phone number 0507-1373-1372 appears in only one sponsored post, copied from a listing; several posts say they booked through Naver.
