Eating solo at one of the counter seats, the writer ordered the Brivit Steak at 37,900 won and the Brivit-ade Grapefruit at 6,900 won, and was struck by the cascade of French aligot cheese, the scallion and whole-garlic garnish, and the little bell you ring to place an order.

I had personal business near Sinnonhyeon after a while, so I ended up in Gangnam and finally ate solo at a restaurant I'd been curious about every time I passed by! The vibe and the service were so good — it's apparently a spot foreign customers love and a go-to for Gangnam work dinners — so here's my honest review for anyone hunting for a Gangnam Station steak restaurant! ## Where is Brivit Gangnam Station, and what are the hours? - 📍31 Gangnam-daero 102-gil, 1F, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 🚇333m from Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 6 - ⏰Daily 11:30 - 21:15 - 🙆‍♀️Separate men's/women's restrooms ![Brivit Gangnam exterior signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-02-nz0jd-900.webp) ![Bench to the right of the Brivit Gangnam entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-03-ncw0c-900.webp) ![Front of the Brivit Gangnam storefront near Sinnonhyeon Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-04-ow801-900.webp) The sign is totally cool haha. The bench to the right of the entrance is a photo hotspot for foreign customers — it's cute enough that everyone stops for a shot there. ## Counter seats for solo diners and a self-bar with a fast charger Inside Brivit Gangnam there are actually two counter seats, great for solo diners. The view out the window while you eat is fantastic too! ![Counter seating inside Brivit Gangnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-05-1c974-900.webp) ![Brivit Gangnam seats with a window view](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-06-13nun-900.webp) ![Table layout in the main dining area of Brivit Gangnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-07-1imsu-900.webp) ![Outdoor-terrace-style reserved seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-08-gvaxt-900.webp) The tables inside that feel like an outdoor terrace were so popular they were all filled up as reserved seats! ![Self-bar with water and pickles](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-09-1hlpm-900.webp) ![Fast charger set up at the self-bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-10-1bqqo-900.webp) This really saved me haha — the self-bar has a fast charger! Water, pickles, all of that is self-serve here. And I made good use of that fast charger, let me tell you! ![Ordering bell given along with the menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-11-5y5xg-900.webp) ![Brivit's ordering bell on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-12-kcjs6-900.webp) The system here is pretty unique too — along with the menu, they give you this little bell! Instead of pressing a buzzer to order, you pick up the bell and ring it gracefully, and staff come right over! Genuinely, genuinely kind. Plus there's a free ade event you can stack — works on both Google and Naver reviews! ## What's on the Brivit menu, and what comes in a set? ![A page from Brivit Gangnam's menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-13-1ymid-900.webp) ![Brivit's set menu options](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-14-28lzf-900.webp) ![Brivit's drink and ade menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-15-12xa0-900.webp) The set menu options looked like really good value too! If I'd come with a group I would have definitely gone for a set. ⭐Ordered⭐ Brivit Steak ₩37,900 / Brivit-ade Grapefruit ₩6,900 ![The Brivit Steak as first served](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-16-dewwk-900.webp) ## Brivit Steak, 37,900 won: how does the aligot cheese cascade taste? 1. Brivit Steak It arrives looking like this at first, but there's a surprising twist coming! The menu mentioned a French cheese cascade, which had me curious — then the server stirred a heated pot for a while and poured something over the steak. The visual alone is wild, right? This is French aligot cheese, and it's not a plain cheese flavor at all — it tastes like potato-infused cheese, so at first I thought it was cheese mixed into mashed potatoes to make the cascade! ![Aligot cheese poured over the steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-17-4xct8-900.webp) ![French aligot cheese stretching on a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-18-axy3r-900.webp) It's delicious just wound around the fork with cheese like this, but the steak quality and doneness were spot on too — juicy and tender, so good ㅠㅠ Look at this cheese stretch ㅠㅠ This was my first time trying French cheese like this, and unlike the cheese you normally eat, it has a heavy, rich flavor. It stretches chewily but isn't greasy at all — just perfect! The bread served alongside was really good too — dip it in the wine sauce pooled at the bottom and it's amazing! The sour-cream-like steak sauce was great as well. Overall the garnish was excellent — eating scallions with steak was a first for me, and I honestly thought 'can this even work...?' but it totally did!! So good. The scallions turned out to be a real highlight. The roasted whole garlic was also completely delicious!! ![Steak with scallion and whole-garlic garnish](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-19-1rha7-900.webp) ## Brivit-ade Grapefruit, 6,900 won 2. Brivit-ade Grapefruit I asked which ade was tastiest and ordered based on that — as the best-selling item, it delivered on flavor! It also came with dried grapefruit chips, which made it even better. ![Brivit-ade Grapefruit topped with grapefruit chips](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-20-fne36-900.webp) Just stir it well with the muddler — the concentration is pretty strong, comparable to drinks at a café, so it wasn't bad at all and paired really well with the steak. If you're planning a date course near Gangnam Station, this place looks like a solid pick. ## Verdict: is Brivit Gangnam Station good for a first date or a solo meal? ![Finished steak spread at Brivit Gangnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak-21-1py94-900.webp) The garnish, the cheese, even the steak doneness — everything was delicious at this Gangnam Station Western restaurant, Brivit! With menus prepared by country for foreign guests and staff whose kindness stood out, it's a solid Gangnam Station date spot. If you're looking for a Gangnam Station restaurant, I highly recommend this place for the great value! 🙏Another delicious meal, thanks for reading.🙏 ## Where it is - Brivit Gangnam Station (브리비트 강남역) - 31 Gangnam-daero 102-gil, 1F, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 강남대로102길 31 1층 - 37.5030789, 127.027776 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B8%8C%EB%A6%AC%EB%B9%84%ED%8A%B8%20%EA%B0%95%EB%82%A8%EC%97%AD/@37.5030789,127.027776,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@alleyway-table-seoul/brivit-gangnam-solo-counter-steak/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
