Gangnam Korean Restaurant

At Gangnam Korean Restaurant, every meal is a bridge connecting the vibrant streets of Majnu-ka-tilla with the rich culinary traditions of Seoul. Since 2017, we have been dedicated to crafting an unforgettable experience where ancient recipes meet a modern, welcoming atmosphere. Our kitchen is anchored in the philosophy that food is the most authentic way to understand a culture. From the smoky, sweet notes of our carefully grilled bulgogi to the soul-warming depth of our kimchi stew, every dish tells a story of heritage and passion. We don’t just serve meals; we invite you on a cultural voyage.

Nestled on the first floor of Tara House in New Aruna Colony, our restaurant has become a landmark for both devoted K-lovers and curious diners looking for something genuinely different in Delhi. Our chefs—whom we affectionately call a ramen-tic symphony of talent—treat each plate as a canvas. They blend fresh, high-quality ingredients with centuries-old Korean techniques to create flavors as bold and memorable as Busan’s bustling markets. The moment you step inside, the rustic Korean charm fused with modern elegance signals that you’re in for more than just dinner; you’re here to make memories.

What We Offer

Our menu is a thoughtfully curated selection of authentic Korean soul food. We believe in offering a full sensory experience, from the sizzle of a hot stone pot to the refreshing burst of a perfectly balanced Soju cocktail. We cater to every kind of meal, whether a quick, satisfying lunch or a long, laughter-filled dinner with friends. The dishes we’re most proud of are those that invite conversation and connection.

Signature Dishes & Culinary Highlights

• Bibimbap: A vibrant, wholesome bowl of rice, seasoned vegetables, and your choice of protein, often served in a hot stone pot to create a deliciously crispy crust.
• Japchae: Glass noodles stir-fried with a colorful medley of vegetables in a perfectly savory-sweet sauce—a textural delight that's both light and satisfying.
• Tempura-Kimbap: A fan-favorite innovation where the classic Korean seaweed rice roll is given a delightfully crispy, light tempura batter coating.
• Ramen & Dumplings (Momo): Hearty, steaming bowls of Korean-style ramen paired with meticulously folded dumplings, offering ultimate comfort in every spoonful.
• Soju & Sake: An essential part of the Korean dining ritual, our selection includes flavored sojus and traditional sake, perfect for toasting and pairing with shared plates.

An Ambiance That Tells a Story

The atmosphere at Gangnam is a deliberate blend of tradition and contemporary aesthetics. You'll find warm wooden tables, elegant decor inspired by Korean aesthetics, and a palpable sense of community. One of our most cherished features is the Wall of Fame, a living tapestry of memories where guests pin photos and notes, becoming permanent parts of our family history. It’s more than decor; it’s a testament to the connections made over shared meals.

For an immersive touch, we offer traditional Korean clothing (hanbok) for guests to wear and photograph. This transforms a simple dinner into a cherished memory, making your visit interactive and visually special. The lively yet cozy atmosphere makes it an ideal destination for everything from casual hangouts to birthday celebrations, always backed by a friendly staff ready to guide you through your gastronomic journey.
