A Western-style pork cutlet restaurant at the top of Namsan, next to the upper cable car station. The large house cutlet was 14,000 won and the cheese cutlet 17,000 won in April 2026; omurice, udon and pizza are also on the menu. All five posts talked about the view over Seoul. We read 5 posts from November 2024 to September 2026, and all five describe an actual meal.

What sets it apart
- The windows are the point. Four posts mentioned the floor-to-ceiling glass; one said three walls are glass and the right-side tables were the most popular and all taken. One evening visit found the view hard to see in the dark and sat at a four-person table because of the kids.
- One post said the restaurant connects directly to the upper cable car station. Another parked at Namsan Park's lot and climbed stairs; a third walked over from the Palgakjeong pavilion past the beacon mound.
- Two posts came with children. One noted a baby chair and said they folded and stored the stroller.

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
1 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
No post described which floor the restaurant is on from experience; the '3rd floor' in the address is copied text.
Nobody said whether the entrance has a step or is wheelchair accessible; the elevator in one post was at the lower cable car station. Unknown, not absent.
Nobody described the restaurant's restroom; the basement restroom in one post belongs to the lower cable car station.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the 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.

What we do not know
- Portions split by dish: two posts called the big cutlet large, but one found the cheese cutlet too small. The same post found the food a little salty overall.
- We know little about waiting. One post arriving near 2 p.m. had no wait; the idea that lunch has a queue appears only as hearsay.
- Two posts came with family and one as a group of four; none came alone or with friends.
- Opening hours disagree: an August 2026 visit gave 11:00-21:00 daily, while copied info in an April post gave 11:30-22:00 with a 16:00-16:30 break. We don't know which is current.
- Prices come only from April and May 2026. No post called the meal expensive; a 2024 post called it cheap.
- Two posts copied the phone number 02-3789-7738, but nobody wrote about actually booking by phone.
