Spanish restaurant
El Olivo is an extraordinary dining establishment that transports you to Spain with its exceptional ambiance. The staff members are incredibly friendly and generous, offering extra olive oil and sauces to enhance your experience. Customers leave feeling delighted and satisfied. The cuisine is remarkable, with the main dishes being particularly enjoyable. The side dishes are also delectable, leaving nothing to be desired except for an English menu option to cater to a wider audience. The service provided is outstanding, alongside a diverse selection of dishes available.
This restaurant was just fantastic. It feels like I went to Spain for an hour. Personal was very kind and gave us additional olive oil and sauces. We went out happy happy

Great service and selection. Food is fine, good, but not great- no "Wow" factor. Authentic taste, but no big flavor.

Excellent food. The service was great and courses were spaced out well. The decor really stands out.

A spanish restaurant located at Sunbawi, Gwacheon. The restaurant's building itself is a spanish style. And all the things inside are spanish as well. The cheapest course menu starts from 35,000 won per person. And all the menus are expensive. But, considering that Spanish foods are usually expensive in Korea, it wasn't too much. The foods weren't as salty as you would find in Spain. But, the favor was also weak. Their parking lot can have upto 3 cars. So you'll have to park at the public parkinglot, which is at the center of the village.

Ordered tortilla (Spanish omelet) and paella. As a Spanish person I can tell that both are not good.

(Translated by Google) It's an amusement park, so it's bright and nice. It's crowded with people, so you can enjoy people watching. It seems like there's always not enough space. I went on a weekend and it was full of people~~ Still, there is Lotteria so I can eat a hamburger~ (Original) 놀이공원이라 밝고 좋아요 사람이 북적거려 사람 구경도 하네요 자리는 항상 부족한듯 싶습니다. 주말에 갔더니 사람들만 가득~~ 그래도 롯데리아가 있어 햄버거 먹어요~

Same Lotteria with higher price obviously. Quality is same or the worse than normal lotterias and old.

(Translated by Google) Honestly, the burger is okay, but... F*ck, it really doesn't taste like soda. It's better to just buy the burger. (Original) 솔직히 햄버거는 뭐그렇다고칠수있는데 시~~~발 정말탄산 맛이 안남 그냥 햄버거만사는게 이득

(Translated by Google) Annual members get a 10% discount, which is nice! The food doesn't come out fast, but it's cooked well and warm, so it's okay! (Original) 연간회원은 10% 할인되어 좋네요! 음식나오는 속도는 빠르지 않지만, 따뜻하게 잘 조리해서 나와 괜찮네요!

Chicken restaurant
I love this place. There can be a long line for dinner but the wait is worth it. The chicken skewers are worth the wait. They are juicy and full of flavor. The 닭도리탕 is great. The 오삼불고기 was a good surprise. I recommend to do the fried rice at the end of the meal. The staff is busy but very friendly and glad to help. It is a small place so a big group might be hard to get seats or you may have a long wait. Come here on a date or with a few friends.
Dario D — Google review
Hosujib’s Tteok-bokki is the best!! The broth is very spicy, but very delicious. I like the rice cake, it is very chewy and tasty! Also, worth to try fried octopus too! Octopus are spicy, chewy, and irresistible. It went well with beer and soju! Unfortunately, the skewers are sold out🥲definitely want to try it next time.
Jo A — Google review
This place has perfect atmosphere. The menu is just simple. Korean style chiken soup and chiken skewers. If you pass near, you can't go due to chiken skewers. A man barbecue at all time in front of chiken. So, the visual and smell is really good. If you want to eat local korean food, you should come here. And also enjoy soju. The problem... Waiting is inevitable... Just visit this before meal time.

You are NOT making a mistake missing grilled chicken skewers. It's just 2,000 won for each and looks quite big, you might think it has a decent amount -yes, I did think- cuz it's not boneless. Just small pieces of chicken. Chicken stew is also good, the broth tastes like comfort food. Can be spicy a bit. Check business time and EMBRACE waiting in line. The food here is not the kind of one that you could expect high seat turnover.
Ming — Google review
Waited over an hour to enter, but the wait was worth it. The spicy chicken stew (23000 for medium) and grilled chicken (2000 each) skewers were all on point. The aunties there were really friendly and even gave us a 1000won discount

Spicy chicken soup very delicious. But for chicken grill available after 5pm
ไพโรจน์ ร — Google review
Nice local restaurant with spicy chicken (looks fiery red but not too spicy imho) & potato hot pot with friendly ajumma who can communicate in basic English. Loved the fresh chicken (no frozen taste), multi grain rice, soft tteokbokki and add on instant noodles. Basically the prices on the top left indicates the size & price of the chicken hot pot. Will love to try the octopus hot pot next time. Leave/take out the perilla leaf if u don’t like the taste. The bbq chicken skewers are great too but only available for dinner onwards. Long queue and mainly local crowd. My advice is to go early to enjoy a great meal without having to brave the queue in freezing cold weather..

A great chicken skewers restaurant! They sell also some other korean dishes! This place is really popular. Come early to reserve some seats.

Pizza restaurant
Domino's Pizza Uiwang Poil is a popular delivery and carryout chain that serves an extensive selection of pizzas alongside various other dishes and sides. While the menu offers plenty of delicious options, some customers have noted that the service could be more welcoming, especially for those who may need extra assistance with their orders. Despite this minor hiccup, Domino's Pizza Uiwang Poil remains a go-to spot for pizza lovers looking to enjoy a meal at home or on the go.
(Translated by Google) They told the old lady who was trying to order with a coupon to just leave... I think they explained it to me a few times... But I wish they'd be a little more friendly. I'd be upset if that happened to me at that age. (Original) 쿠폰으로 주문하려는 할머니한테 그냥 가라고 하네요..몇번은 설명은 하신듯한데...그래도 좀 친절히 대해 주셨으면 합니다. 본인도 그나이 먹고 그러면 서운하잖아요

(Translated by Google) I don't know if he's the boss of Albanji, but he's so rude, he keeps cutting me off. I tried to tell him I ordered takeout, but he started arguing and told me to wait in line behind him;; If he's busy, he either hires more part-timers or comes out 20 minutes later than scheduled; and he doesn't even apologize. (Original) 알반지 사장인지 모르겠는데 싸가지 없음 말 뚝뚝 끊음. 포장주문했다고 말하려는데 중간에 시비거는 말투로 뒤에서 차례차례 기다리라고 함;; 바쁘면 알바를 더 고용하던가 예정시간보다 20분 더 늦게 나옴; 사과도 없음
