Western

Haiwei Seoul Yeongdeungpo Taimseukweeo-jeom

하이웨이서울 영등포 타임스퀘어점 Highway Seoul — the house styles itself as a Korean highway drivers' canteen (gisa sikdang) crossed with an American roadside diner.

Compiled from 19 blog posts read in fullSources →

A Western-style cutlet house on the fourth-floor dining level of Times Square in Yeongdeungpo, billed as a Korean drivers' canteen crossed with an American diner. You order pork cutlet platters (14,500 won), spicy-pork rice bowls (13,500), cubed steak on an iron plate (29,000) or pasta (14,800) from a tablet at the table, and help yourself to rice, cream soup and a children's seaweed soup at a self-serve bar. We read 24 posts dated April 14 to October 24, 2026; 19 describe actually eating here.

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. Seventeen posts mention the self-serve bar: rice, mushroom cream soup, a children's seaweed soup, cutlet sauce, kkakdugi and jalapeños, as much as you like. Cutlets don't come with rice, one post notes, so you fetch it yourself. Two posts complained that the soup cups are tiny — 'like soy-sauce dishes' — so you make several trips.
  2. Five posts went with children and four mention high chairs. Several describe a microwave for baby food and self-serve kids' cutlery; one family that goes often liked the many power outlets for a portable formula kettle. They switched their child from the Toowoomba pasta, which was 'a bit spicy', to the bulgogi ragù.
  3. Nine posts call the cutlet thick and seven call the batter crisp. Several mention the slice of butter that melts over the sauce, and three made little sandwiches by stuffing cutlet and cabbage into the split bread roll on the plate.
  4. Nine posts say the portions are big: a platter puts cutlet, a side meat, salad and bread on one plate, and one pair found a platter plus a half chicken just right for two. Seven posts call it good value.

  1. Eight posts say the room is large; two sat at six-person tables and one at a sofa booth along the wall. Five describe ordering from a tablet or kiosk at each table.
  2. Five posts found something spicy — the spicy pork, the chili pasta, the cutlet sauce — and one disagreed, saying the 'spicy' sauce was barely hot. Two posts warn that the red bottle on the table is tomato gochujang, not ketchup.
  3. Four posts got a free ade for posting a photo review on Naver; two of those were sponsored.

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.

Getting inside

In a basementyes 0 · no 5 (of 19 posts read)
Step-free accessyes 1 · no 1 (of 19 posts read)

It's on the fourth floor; five posts describe going up (several by escalator) and finding it right there. No one mentions an elevator.

Posts split one to one on strollers: one said bringing a stroller in is difficult, another (a regular) said staff seated them at a roomier table when the baby was asleep in the stroller. No one wrote about wheelchairs or a step at the entrance — that means no one said, not that it's fine.

No post says whether there is a restroom inside or whether you use the mall's. We don't know.

No one mentioned: Second floor · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · 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 22 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

  • Two posts found it easy to reach by transit via Yeongdeungpo Station exit 6; the '217 m from exit 6' figure elsewhere is copied listing data. No post names a bus.
  • Only one post actually waited: arriving after 2 p.m. on a weekend, they registered at the kiosk by the door and got in after about five minutes. Another described the kiosk without having to use it; the rest only guess that weekends may have a line.
  • The retro coffee vending machine out front: two sponsored posts call it free, while a regular who goes with her child calls it a 300-won machine.
  • Prices have moved: the cheese cutlet was 15,000 won in April 2026 and 15,500 on a September menu. The chuck-flap iron-plate steak (33,000) from April is gone by September, replaced by the cubed flat-iron steak at 29,000. Prices above are as of September–October 2026.
  • Opening hours appear in 14 posts: 13 say 11:00–22:00 daily, one says 11:00–21:00. Last order is mostly 21:00, once 21:30. Nearly all of this is copied into info boxes.
  • Several posts copy the phone number (0507-1319-9280) and say Naver booking is available, but none describes actually reserving.
  • Three sponsored or comped posts from September 2026 share the same script — the 'American diner meets Korean drivers' canteen' line, the Instagram link, the photo-review ade, the free coffee machine. We read them alongside the unsponsored posts and gave them less weight.
