UAHRA Gwanghwamun: Premium Hanwoo Beef Omakase Experience Near Gyeongbokgung Station
Hello, everyone! Today, I'm excited to share my review of the Hanwoo beef omakase course at 'UAHRA' Gwanghwamun, a renowned beef restaurant in Gwanghwamun.
Being someone who believes that good drinks are essential with beef or Hanwoo omakase, I always prioritize restaurants with a corkage-free policy.
UAHRA is not only corkage-free but also boasts private dining rooms with a great ambiance, making it a choice you won't regret for any gathering.
Let me introduce you to my delightful dinner experience at UAHRA!
Before my dinner reservation, the weather was exceptionally lovely, so I intentionally arrived two hours early to explore Gyeongbokgung Station and Seochon on my own.
Located near Gyeongbokgung Station in the K-Twin Tower, UAHRA is easily accessible!
UAHRA is located on the B1 floor of the K-Twin Tower, and the entrance exudes a luxurious atmosphere.
Parking at UAHRA is supported for 2 hours and is available from the 3rd basement floor of the K-Twin Tower. Parking in Zone A is said to be the most convenient!
All seats are in private rooms with a wonderful atmosphere. They even have the traditional Korean moon jar!
They have rooms that can accommodate up to 20 people, making it perfect for occasions like 60th birthday celebrations, first birthday parties, or company dinners! I think it will be very popular at the end of the year. It also has a great atmosphere for a formal meeting between families before marriage.
If you're looking for a private dining room with a great ambiance near Gyeongbokgung Station and Seochon, I highly recommend UAHRA. And don't forget, it's corkage-free!
UAHRA Dinner B Course: 10-Course of Top-Quality Aged Hanwoo Beef Grill with Personal Fire Pit:
- 90g: ₩129,000
- 120g: ₩139,000
- 150g: ₩149,000
The name 'UAHRA' is a combination of 牛 (U), meaning Hanwoo beef, and 'ARA,' a pure Korean word for 'ocean.' :)
UAHRA is a private Korean dining experience presenting a high-quality Korean course - Hanwoo Omakase - with premium-grade top-quality Hanwoo beef and seafood.
We enjoyed the Dinner B course, and my companion added ₩10,000 for the 120g portion! I recommend men add this.
At the beginning, they showcase the ingredients that will be used in today's course, which is great for taking pictures!
I love enjoying things with my eyes, and adults seem to really like this kind of thing. My mom's 60th birthday is coming up soon, so I should bring her here...
Chawanmushi: Scallop, Asparagus, Ginkgo
The meal starts with chawanmushi, which is warm and smooth and easy to eat. Plus, the plating is so cute. It's acorn-shaped! If you request it for your anniversary, you will be provided with dessert lettering + polaroid + 1 glass of champagne each! Be sure to enjoy it with champagne :)
Elegant (4 Bite-Sized Dishes): Tuna, Hanwoo Beef Tartare, Hanwoo Tenderloin, Lobster
Next comes the amuse-bouche, four bite-sized dishes called 'Elegant.' The plating is the best...
From tuna rolls to Hanwoo beef tartare canapés, Hanwoo tenderloin fritters, and lobster, it's full of high-end ingredients!
It's truly delicious.
Red Sea Bream: Eggplant, Korean Parsley, Yuzu, Pear, Dill
Fresh raw fish is a must, right? The red sea bream and the refreshing sauce go so well together! I finished my champagne here, lol.
Cho-dang Corn Soup: Truffle Oil, Avruga Caviar, Spinach, Mushroom
The Cho-dang corn soup that completely captivated me! It was so delicious that I finished the entire bowl.
It's really creamy and rich. I thought the soup would be shallow, but the portion is also large. I love it.
Abalone: Radish, Kelp, Basil
Abalone, braised radish, and steamed pumpkin are served together. The chewy abalone, soft steamed pumpkin, and braised radish were a perfect combination. :)
I thought it would be difficult to keep coming and going since it's a private dining room, but the server was very friendly ㅠ
Tilefish: Mullet Roe, Aster scaber Rice
This was also a really, really delicious menu item. Plus, the plating is so pretty. I want that plate. Anyway, grilled tilefish is placed on top of aster scaber rice, and they pour a broth made from tilefish bones. How can this be so delicious ㅠ
UAHRA, a beef restaurant in Gwanghwamun, not only serves beef but also presents the best taste in Korean cuisine through various ingredients, which was great!
Perilla Oil Octopus Hanwoo Noodle: Octopus, Sea Urchin, Hanwoo, Korean Parsley, Yuzu, Capellini, Aged Kimchi
It's a perilla oil octopus Hanwoo noodle! Just hearing the name, it doesn't seem like it would refresh your palate, but it's a refreshing dish haha.
I fell in love with capellini at the Hanwoo omakase UAHRA.. ; ; I'm using it instead of somen these days haha. It's actually good because it doesn't get soggy?!
Personal Fire Pit Grill & Bapsang: Hanwoo Striploin, Grilled Vegetables, Potato, Parsnip & Hanwoo Seaweed Soup, Icheon Rice, 3 Side Dishes
The main course at the beef restaurant in Gwanghwamun is Hanwoo striploin grilled over a personal fire pit, served with bapsang!
Premium Hanwoo striploin of such good quality that you can feel it just by looking at it!
The photo above is 90g, and the photo below is 120g ~ haha. Adding ₩10,000 for 30g.. is the right thing to do, right? haha
Grilling it diligently with vegetables ✨ I want to eat it so badly again ㅠㅠ
Also, since it's grilled on a personal fire pit, it's nice because you can grill it yourself haha.
You don't have to worry about each other's grilling preferences or speed ㅋ Isn't this a must-have course for company dinners...?
I prefer it just like this. Hanwoo striploin that melted in my mouth...
Even the bapsang with my beloved Hanwoo seaweed soup ✨ With Hanwoo striploin dipped lightly in salt on top of white rice made with Icheon rice, it's heaven ㅠ
Here, a rich Hanwoo seaweed soup + ripened kimchi and salted seafood... it's crazy. It feels like my birthday today...
Dessert
To finish, a refreshing dessert - I thought I was going to explode haha
If you apply for a anniversary, they will letter it for you, so if it's your anniversary, be sure to apply >_<
A happy dinner at Hanwoo Omakase 'UAHRA', a beef restaurant in Gwanghwamun
If you are looking for a private dining room with a good atmosphere near Gyeongbokgung Station & Seochon, I would definitely recommend UAHRA!
I hope my review has been helpful, and I wish you all a happy day! Bye >_<
