LOWFIVE
로우파이브 안국 Ro-upaibeu Anguk Low five is the low-handed counterpart of a high five; one post relays the owner describing it as an easy, casual greeting, in line with the house motto 'Together tastes better'.

Lowfive Anguk is a wood-fired pizza and pasta house on the ground floor of a red-brick building, a 3–5 minute walk up Bukchon-ro from exit 2 of Anguk station. It is the Seoul branch of a Suwon (Haenggung-dong) restaurant; the earliest receipt is from March 2026, so it opened around then. Of the 25 posts by people who ate there, 18 ordered the half-and-half pizza (usually 26,000 won), and 15 of those put corn pizza on one half. Several pairs ordered three plates — a pizza plus a pasta or the avocado kimchi fried rice (14,000 won); two such bills came to 60,000 and 64,000 won. You order by the QR code on the table and fetch water, hot sauce and parmesan from a self-service bar in the middle of the room. We read 30 posts dated 6 June to 14 October 2026: 25 from visits, and 2 set aside as being about a different restaurant.

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
- Waiting is the defining feature here. Of 25 posts from visits, 17 waited and 3 did not. Several posts say paper numbers are handed out at 11:05 and 16:35, and remote CatchTable queueing opens at 11:40 and 17:10. People arriving at 11:08, 11:10 and 11:35 got numbers 6, 4 and 14; two who queued remotely on the way waited about five minutes on arrival; one who joined just after 6 pm was called in 30 minutes; one saw seven parties waiting at 7 pm on a Thursday. Two posts say you lose your place if you are not in within 8 minutes of being called, one says 10. The three who walked straight in came at opening in the early weeks, early on a Friday evening, and at 1:30 pm on a Thursday.
- Posts disagree on reservations. Seven say you cannot book (no phone or same-day bookings); two booked anyway — one says she usually phones ahead, another reserved by text message. An August post noticed a new 1 pm 'queue reservation' slot on CatchTable.
- You order through the QR code stuck to each table — 17 posts say so — and several note that staff take your order while you wait, so food arrives soon after you sit. On paper menus, one post says there are none and two say there is one on the self-service bar or on request.
- Nine posts mention the open kitchen where you can watch the pizzas being made; one places the toilet just to its left.
5 more
- Nine posts found something spicy — mostly the Tex-Mex taco pizza, the hot-pot pescatore, the spicy shrimp rigatoni and the kimchi fried rice. One self-described heat-avoider found it pleasantly hot; another found the pescatore mild.
- Eleven posts describe walking there: 2–5 minutes from exit 2 of Anguk station along Bukchon-ro towards Jaedong Elementary School, across from the Constitutional Court. One came by village bus 2 to the Jaedong Elementary stop, a minute away. Two note it sits in a side alley, out of sight from the main road.
- Ten posts went with friends, four with a spouse or partner, one with a mother; many recommend it for dates.
- Ten posts found the staff kind — one was brought a detergent-dampened wipe unasked after splashing pasta sauce on a white shirt, another praised them for handling requests like leaving off the coriander.
- Five posts found portions generous — one took two slices home — while one found the truffle cream pasta a bit small.

Parking
3 posts say you cannot park. None say you can.

Do not count on parking. Three posts say in their own words there is nowhere to park; the other 'no parking' lines are copied from the listing. One post quotes a notice outside saying nearby parking is very scarce, and suggests the Hyundai Gye-dong building car park a short walk away (3,000 won for the first hour).

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
Eleven posts describe walking there: 2–5 minutes from exit 2 of Anguk station along Bukchon-ro towards Jaedong Elementary School, across from the Constitutional Court. One came by village bus 2 to the Jaedong Elementary stop, a minute away. Two note it sits in a side alley, out of sight from the main road.
Getting inside
| Toilet inside | 3 of 25 posts |
|---|---|
| Separate restrooms | yes 0 · no 1 (of 25 posts read) |
No post describes the floor level or any stairs; the '1st floor' appears only in the address. We do not know.
No post says whether there is a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller gets in — not that there is a barrier, just that nobody wrote about it. One post notes the restaurant sits on a very narrow alley where the queue forms.
Three posts say the toilet is inside the restaurant; one adds that it is a single shared unisex room and clean.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet. 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 28 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
- Posts disagree on space. Five call the room large, one calls it small and cosy. Three found the two-person tables cramped — one urges avoiding the wall-side two-tops, another struggled to fit two dishes, a third sat three at one — while one found the tables roomy. Several mention seating from two-tops to an eight-person table; one mentions a separate bar table.
- Opening hours appear in 22 posts and almost all agree: Tuesday to Sunday 11:30–21:00, break 15:00–17:00, last orders 19:30, closed Mondays. Three add a 14:20 lunch last order; one copied listing says 'daily'. Several warn it may close early when ingredients run out, and many of these hours are copied from the listing.
- Things sell out: the lasagna is limited daily; one post found both the kimchi fried rice and the lasagna gone by 12:25 on a weekday, another found the avocado kimchi fried rice gone at lunch, and a third found the corn pizza sold out on a Friday evening.
- Prices: the half-and-half is mostly listed at 26,000 won but three posts say 27,000. One says a taco half adds 1,000 won, yet three others chose a taco half and wrote 26,000, so we cannot say which is current. Two posts call it good value; none call it expensive. Two bills for three plates between two people came to 60,000 and 64,000 won.
- Phone: over ten posts give 0507-1360-7125; one gives 010-8325-3307 and says it booked by text. Whether phone reservations are accepted is split seven to two, as above.
- No post discloses sponsorship. Five say they paid their own way, with a receipt or the 'paid myself' tag. One 13 October post follows a numbered promotional template ('store introduction', 'store features', 'dignified service'), so we discount its praise. The backstory (a brunch shop that started in Suwon) is hearsay passed on by the writers.
