Escape to Italy in Seoul! I'm Italian, and when I lived in Seoul, Brera Restaurant was like a homecoming! The carbonara was my favorite dish, because it perfectly resembled the authentic Roma carbonara! I went many Times for both lunch and dinner, I tried several dishes. The authentic, high-quality Italian cuisine made me feel right at home! The staff were truly friendly and helpful, and they speak both Korean and English. The location is very close to the subway. I recommend this restaurant if you want to try authentic Italian cuisine! Their fettuccine alla Fantasia di Funghi is a delicatessen, such a winner that, whenever I visit Brera, I rarely venture to explore other dishes. Great service, casual while pleasant atmosphere. Good choice for family or friends gatherings. In my opinion prices are appropriate to the quality and quantity served. Highly recommended. Brera – A Slice of Real Italy in Seoul If you’re on the hunt for authentic Italian food in Seoul, Brera is an absolute gem. As someone who’s picky about Italian spots (I always check if they use guanciale in their carbonara — the real deal!), Brera totally won me over. This place has been featured in the Michelin Guide for several years in a row, and after dining here, it’s easy to see why. Their carbonara? Chef’s kiss. Creamy, rich, perfectly balanced — just like the one I had in Rome. And the amatriciana was equally impressive — bold, comforting, and packed with that deep, savory flavor you can only get from doing it right. We started with the Sicilian arancini, which were golden, crispy, and delicious — exactly how they should be. And of course, we had to finish on a sweet note — tiramisu and crème brûlée — both dreamy, both devoured in seconds. The vibe, the flavors, the authenticity… Brera nails it. If you love Italian food and appreciate places that stay true to tradition, this place is a must-visit in Seoul. I’m already planning my next visit!

Food did not come close to the menu description. Bechamel was absolutely absent from this dish making it a huge disappointment. Staff were lovely.
