Why Travelers Love MUGUNGHWA
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Came here for lunch course. This place serve authentic + luxurious style korean cuisine with unique menus. Very decent quality ingredient and exceptional services. All the savory dishes are good but drop a bit on dessert part Spectacular. I had the vegetarian set and everything was so good. Like every dish was somehow better than the previous one and I was constantly impressed throughout. Every dish was super consistently high quality, stunningly delicious. If I had to choose the doenjang jigae would be my favourite. This place really did not disappoint. I booked smoothly online and would recommend this wholeheartedly. Always experience great taste and the best service from qualified staff. Special view from the toilet in the evening.. don’t miss it, too☺️☺️

Honestly, it's been four years since I came to this place and I still constantly think of it now. Probably the best food and in general sensory experience I have had in my life. I haven't found any place that matches up with it yet. It was a most perfect evening and I will come back if I ever visit Seoul again. Sending you my love from Spain, dear Mugunghwa team!

A very elegant, classic, and high quality restaurant, with an amazing view. Located on the 38th floor of the Lotte Hotel, the price isn’t cheap - expect to pay around 150 a person for dinner. The meal was very tasty, with high quality ingredients used in classic Korean dishes. Would recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy a taste of Korean fine dining.
