Buto

We were looking for a bar to have a beer before walking back to our hotel. We came by Buto and just walked in … we did not know anything about it and my goodness it was good! Small cosy restaurant… not on the cheap side and well worth it. Deliciously original food and very friendly and professional service! Highly recommended especially the eggplant menbosha 🙌

Very innovative, wonderfully tasting dishes along with an attentive and very friendly staff. Excellent wine and other drinks options. Though the restaurant only seats 20 or so, there was no rush to turn our table as we were there for almost 3 hours. Creative small plate Korean dishes with Chinese and other influences.

Rice is cooked at 8pm everyday! Chef used to run momo jein in hk and now has returned to Korea! Must try the cauliflower and the rice!!!

Good was fantastic and the chefs amazing. Menu is so good you can’t go wrong. Despite not being on the menu, the guys made us a couple of bespoke cocktails.

our favorite meal in Seoul by far! charming and informative service from reservation (thru instagram) to goodbyes. Hits the sweet spot between cool and cozy, not at all pretentious. I'm a vegetarian and the chef/owner was so gracious about accommodating me (and my omnivore sister). We had multiple courses recommended by the chef and all were outstanding (grilled watermelon salad, sweet corn, mala noodles, fried eggplant, and then two different desserts). I can't recommend Buto highly enough... a particularly welcome find for those looking for a vegetarian-friendly option.

Daily specials off the menu and a great wine selection. Provides english menus for foreigners and friendly service makes it ideal for locals and tourists that are looking for a fun, quality dinner time in Seoul.

A cozy place with great Korean fusion experience. Good selection of European wine.

Food was great, but all the wine was so much overpriced.
