Why Travelers Love Papero
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Yum, yum, yum! Papero did not disappoint. This charming restaurant was steps away from my hotel and I was excited to give it a shot considering the reviews. I chose the mushroom burrata salad and the margarita pizza. The salad was mouthwateringly delicious, and the pizza was very good. The portions were perfect for a solo diner. Service was warm and genuine. The waitstaff recommended a wine for me based on my dinner selections and it paired perfectly. I love Korean food but sometimes you just want a good pizza! I definitely recommend stopping here for some fresh Italian and great service. Just craving for italian in jeju and ended at this place. All foods were amazing! But just about the lamb that serves without side dishes or potatoes i wish i had some side dishes including in this dish. However, i would still recommend all travelers to this italian place in jeju. You wouldnt regret! Chanced upon this random Italian restaurant around the area amidst Korean and Chinese food restaurants. Owner spoke English if needed. English menu was also available. The food were delicious. Do note that each person was required to get a drink. Btw I think the calamari was really outstanding. Do give it a try

We were sick of hotel food and seeking comfort, this was such a wonderful surprise! The food here is absolutely delicious. The owners are so incredibly warm and welcoming. The pizza is really special. The pasta was fantastic. The wine was great. Only wonderful things to say about this restaurant. We came here two nights in a row. They remembered us on the second night. Such a hidden gem.

Decent food, but small portions for the price, and absolutely insane drink prices, and it is mandatory to order one drink per person. I felt like I got robbed. 18k for a bottle of beer and 16k for a non-alcoholic lemonade? Seriously? Also, the pizza crust was soggy and the toppings only covered less than half of the surface area. I want pizza, not half pizza/half bread. The crust of a pizza should be crispy when it is fresh from the oven. Otherwise there is no point getting it at a restaurant and you might as well get it delivered so it can get soggy in the box. The lasagna was good and the quality of the pizza toppings was also good. I would not recommend eating here though. One pizza and one lasagna were not enough so we had to order a second pizza, even though we are not big eaters. Also I should note that I am from New York so my pizza standards are quite high. I hope this helps.
