Moa is a Korean-fusion restaurant on the ground floor of the Geumseong Building on Teheran-ro 5-gil, about a five-minute walk from Gangnam Station exit 11. Dishes mix Korean ingredients into pasta, risotto and arancini — perilla-oil and salted-seafood pasta, abalone butter pot rice, doenjang arancini — and are meant for sharing; prices named in the posts run from 12,800 to 24,900 won. Two posts said three dishes and a soft drink for two came to 54,500 and 53,600 won. Five posts ordered from a tablet at the table. We read 31 posts dated 27 September to 24 October 2026; 19 are about this restaurant and 16 describe actually eating there.

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
- Expect to wait at mealtimes. Six posts waited: 40 minutes at 7pm, 20 minutes, more than seven groups lined up before opening on a Sunday, full by 11:40 on a weekday with a queue after, and queues straight after office hours and on a weekend. One post walked in at 5:30pm on a weekday with no wait but said every seat was gone after 6. You join the queue on the Tablering kiosk outside or the app; three posts booked ahead on Naver. One post says tables are limited to 90 minutes when the room is full.
- The window seats are the draw. Four posts mention outdoor tables or a terrace along the windows, and four mention sun pouring in through large windows. One describes the window counter as half terrace, half indoors; a family post stepped out to the open front seating for air with their child. Three posts note an open kitchen.
- Five posts went with friends — the most common company, including a pre-wedding invitation dinner. One went on a date, and one with family and children; that post said a stroller fit beside the table without trouble.

There is no restaurant parking. Four posts said the building has none and you need a nearby public or private lot; the family post parked at Yeoksam Cultural Park public lot no. 1 and walked three minutes. One post saw one or two spaces but suspected they were for staff.

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
7 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 1 (of 16 posts read) |
|---|---|
| Step-free access | 1 of 16 posts |
| Toilet inside | 1 of 16 posts |
We know little about access. One post brought a stroller in and parked it by the table, and one says the restaurant is on the ground floor. No one mentioned whether there is a step or a ramp at the entrance — that means unknown, not absent. A 'wheelchair-accessible entrance' line in one post is copied listing data, so we did not count it.
Only one post said from experience that the restroom is inside the restaurant. Separate men's and women's restrooms appear only in one post's copied info box, so we don't know.
No one mentioned: Second floor · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · 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 20 posts we gathered, 4 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
- It is not quiet. Two posts said the room is noisy and advised against it for a blind date; one said it is not quiet but you can talk. One found the outer window seats less loud.
- Posts split two to two on a waiting area: two describe chairs or a waiting spot outside the entrance, two say there is no separate waiting space.
- Posts disagree on price. Three found it reasonable — pasta in the mid-teens of thousands of won, generous for the money — while two called it on the pricey side, more for a special outing. The beef-tartare kimchi wrap is listed at 15,800 won in two posts and 16,800 in one.
- Seven posts said it is an easy walk from the subway — about five minutes from Gangnam Station exit 11, about three from Yeoksam Station exit 4. The family post warned of an uphill stretch on the way if you are pushing a stroller.
- Fourteen posts listed opening hours, all copied into an info box: thirteen agree on 11:00–22:00 daily with a 15:30–17:00 break and last order at 21:00; one gave an 11:30 opening and a 15:00–17:00 break. One says there is no closing day. Four posts gave the phone number 0507-1399-2028; bookings were made through Naver.
- Promotional posts are mixed in. Three use the same search phrase 'Gangnam Station Korean restaurant' in their titles, and one of them discloses it was sponsored. Three posts say they paid their own way. Two are write-ups from public listings by people who never went, and we did not count them.
