Where is 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch, and what are the hours?

Second-floor window seats: easy for solo diners

I ate at the restaurant, though there were a lot of takeout and delivery orders too! It's a clean space, and being on the 2nd floor means you get a lovely green view through the full-length windows.

Walking in, the place feels clean, comfortable, and cozy — no pressure eating alone here. There are plenty of tables, so it's also a good spot for a simple solo lunch in Euljiro!

You can order via kiosk or through Naver order 🤎 Regular gimbap, keto gimbap, fresh fruit juice — Igu Tamago is packed with healthy options.. ✨

"Tamago" is Japanese for rolled egg, and the biggest feature of the gimbap here is that a whole rolled egg goes into the roll!

Spring roll gimbap: rice paper wrap with pineapple inside

Vietnamese-style spring roll gimbap 🥗 highly recommend for a diet meal! It's packed with vegetables and was filling enough as a full meal on its own.

Such a neat little full spread — they give you pickles, broth, and a ssamjang mayo sauce together.

Besides the spring roll version, there's a wide variety of keto gimbap, and the ingredients felt fresh. I love healthy food normally, so the other menu items looked delicious too!

The colorful look alone is so pretty it's perfect for taking to go. Even without rice, the other ingredients pack it out so full — such a satisfying, generous feeling.

Wrapped in rice paper, you can see how packed the filling is — and pineapple, which is a must for Vietnamese-style spring rolls, is right there too!!

Dip it generously in the ssamjang mayo sauce and pop it in your mouth — wow, the texture is artful, and it tastes so healthy and so good.

Tuna keto gimbap: a whole rolled egg keeps it from tasting dry

Tuna keto gimbap 🤎 my personal favorite menu item! The signature tamago (rolled egg) makes it soft and moist. There was none of the dryness keto gimbap usually has — instead it was nutty and clean-tasting.

Now I get why it's so popular — the best menu item at this Euljiro gimbap spot for solo dining, tuna gimbap, 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch,, eat it twice *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

Usually keto gimbap has a layer of egg sheet laid down like rice to cut carbs, but at 29 Tamago the egg goes in as a fluffy rolled egg, so it felt more like eating Japanese futomaki than gimbap.

The dipping sauce that comes alongside is so good too — this is a keto gimbap with no rice at all, and apparently it's a popular menu item packed with whole rolled egg, fresh vegetables, and tuna.

The whole rolled egg inside blends naturally with the other ingredients, bringing up a subtle sweetness that was delicious.
