A “terrace†that makes you feel like you are out in an indoor space. In today's weather, there is intense competition for terrace seats where you can spend time enjoying the warm sun in restaurants and cafes. Not only does it have a cool, open feel, but it's also great for taking certified photos because of the emotionally decorated interior. Today, when it's hard to find time to relax due to busy company life, not being able to travel due to the coronavirus, etc., I would like to sit on the terrace and enjoy a meal even for a moment.
With the perfect conditions, including a cool breeze, sunny weather, and lush trees, now is the time to enjoy the terrace. Even if it's the same terrace, each space has the charm of creating a variety of atmospheres depending on how it's decorated. It's fun to choose from terraces that have an exotic atmosphere as if you were in a foreign country to places that add a refreshing atmosphere with green plants. Here are 5 of the best restaurants with terraces full of nature, with fresh sunshine and a gentle breeze coming in between the leaves.
Terrace restaurants include Seoul Apgujeong Osteria Cotto, Cheongdam Terrace Room, Seolleung Chez Alex, Yeoksam Bosket, Dosan Park Rijadangdosan, Sinsa Station Pound Locale, Dosan Park Cecicella, Itaewon Coutijardang, Cheongdam Luca 511, Haebangchon Ori, Hannam-dong Maison Hannam, Seongsu-dong Italian Chacha, Hannam-dong Rossini, Ikseon-dong Double Floor Yangok, Apgujeong Cheung, Namsan 1978 Terrace, Cheongdam, Igote Famous places include Taewon Decode, Dosan Park Grand Ciel, Cheongdam Schedule Cheongdam, Busan Songjeong Obambu, Haeundae Mipo-san, Geumjeong-gu Halmaejip, Gwangan-ri Halong Terrace in Suyeong-gu, and Sonsijip in Geumjeong-gu.

The “Terrace Room†is a terrace surrounded by transparent domes where you can enjoy your meal even on cold winter days or rainy days. The terrace, lined with green trees along the outskirts, is reminiscent of a European cafe district. The interior, which consists of tables wrapped in white tablecloths, wood-tone furniture, and colorful bars decorated with whiskeys, makes you feel like you are in a classic hotel dining hall. The signature dish is the “Iberico cutlet,†which is Iberian sirloin, covered in batter, deep-fried, and topped with plenty of chopped chives. The soft texture of the Iberian sirloin, which is properly mixed with fat, and the contrasting texture of the crispy batter stands out. If you cut the cutlets into bite-sized pieces and dip them in truffle mayo sauce, you can experience the flavor of truffles that spreads fragrant throughout your mouth.

â–²Location: 37 Seolleung-ro 152-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul
â–²Opening hours: 11:30 – 22:00 every day, closed on Mondays
â–²Price: Iberian cutlet 36,000 won, Kongpi octopus 29,000 won
â–²Testimonial (): This place has a different atmosphere from when you come during the day and when you come at night. The atmosphere is also atmospheric, but I often go there because of the flavors and plating that can't be found anywhere else. If you squeeze the grilled lemon that comes with an Iberian cutlet that has bones on it like the meat in the manga, the freshness of the lemon captures the flavor nicely.
2. 'Chez Alex' in Seolleung, greeted by a green lawn

'Ches Alex' combines a restaurant, wine bar, and bakery. A two-story house with a large lawn was renovated and transformed into a restaurant with a terrace. The signature menu, 'Jeju Black Pork Tomahawk', serves pork ribs with ribs that are smoked over a long period of time. It was smoked with various herbs to remove the impurities unique to pork and make use of its rich smoky aroma. Visual performances, such as showing a whole, browned steak and then cutting it into pieces that are easy to eat, add to the pleasure of the meal. The combination of the contrasting texture of the juicy, moist meat and the crunchy skin stands out. You can also enjoy a richer gourmet meal with a fresh romaine salad served as a garnish and finely crushed mashed potatoes.

Jeju black pork tomahawk took a little while to cook, so it came out last. It's so quick and easy! Among them, I think the mashed potato that comes with it has a soft and chewy texture that enhances the flavor of the meat.

“Pound Local†is a brunch cafe during the day and operates directly where you can drink cocktails and wine in the evening. The terrace, which is filled with fresh green plants and gives a cool feeling just by looking at it, makes you feel like you are in a garden. The signature menu is “Black Chicken Bao Bun,†which is a spicy mayo sauce with bao bun, chicken thighs deep-fried in squid ink batter, coleslaw, and cilantro piled one after the other. The bun, which has a light flavor and a moist texture, softly wraps the crispy deep-fried chicken thigh and goes well together. The spicy mayo sauce and fresh coleslaw perfectly capture the deep-fried chicken thighs that you can feel. If you don't like coriander, I recommend saying it in advance when ordering.

I liked the texture of Bao Bun, which was softer and more moist than a regular burger. The spicy mayo sauce is a special point! There's also the editorial shop Chapter One on the 2nd floor, so it's fun to look around while you wait for the food.

“Rijadang Dosan Branch†is a restaurant newly opened by the flower shop “Rijadang Flower.†When you go out to the terrace seat on the 3rd floor, the trees planted densely along the edge create a fresh atmosphere. A terrace with a fresh sensibility was completed by filling the space with white awnings, marble tables, and rattan chairs. The signature dish is “truffle cream gnocchi,†made by putting baked gnocchi on a cream sauce flavored with pecorino cheese and topped with sliced truffles. When the gnocchi comes out, the staff grinds the pepper with a large grinder and grinds it. The cheese cream sauce, which is deeply infused with the rich flavor of pecorino cheese and truffles, envelops the gnocchi and enhances its rich flavor. You can also buy flowers at the flower shop on the 2nd floor, so be sure to check it out.

â–²Testimonial (Shikigin Choding Taste MSG): I saw a terrace meal scene on Friends and found it. The weather is nice these days and it was nice to have brunch on the terrace. The best menu item is a truffle cream gnocchi that looks like a scallop. Soft and chewy gnocchi, cheese cream sauce, and truffles go great together! There's also a flower shop inside the store, so I think it would be great to visit for anniversaries and special occasions. The fresh flowers and the light are great, and there are plenty of photo zones!
