Visiting with a friend, the writer ordered three plates at 16,900 won each — White Rose Pasta, Awesome Tomato Pasta and Rose Aglio e Olio — to taste cream, tomato and oil sauces side by side, for a total of 50,700 won for two. Because none of the three sauces overlapped, Awesome Rose works well for two people with different tastes sharing plates. ## Good to know - **White Rose Pasta**: 16,900 won - **Awesome Tomato Pasta**: 16,900 won - **Rose Aglio e Olio**: 16,900 won - **Coca-Cola Zero**: 0 won - **Total for two**: 50,700 won - **Address**: B1, 40 Apgujeong-ro 10-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul - **Hours**: 11:00–22:00 (last order 21:30) - **Parking**: Valet available; 4,000 won for 2 hours inside the alley by the 7-Eleven - **Reservations**: Naver Reservation, Catch Table - **Price reference**: ₩4,000 ≈ $3 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Aug 31, 2026* ![Space at Awesome Rose Garosu-gil decorated with roses](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-01-hsgvp-900.webp) > A Garosu-gil meal enjoying three kinds of pasta in a space decorated all over with roses I went to Awesome Rose near Garosu-gil to have pasta with a friend. The atmosphere and the food photos looked so pretty that I'd been curious about this Garosu-gil pasta spot for a while. ![Walking through the Garosu-gil alley to Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-02-u60tx-850.webp) ![Exterior of the Awesome Rose Garosu-gil building](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-03-1xzfy-900.webp) ## Where is Awesome Rose Garosu-gil, and where do you park? You can find it by walking in from Sinsa Station toward the inner part of Garosu-gil. ![Best-review certifications posted at the entrance of Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-04-113xz-900.webp) The entrance was covered in best-review certifications, and valet parking is available in the alley behind the 7-Eleven for ₩4,000 for 2 hours. ![Rose-decorated entrance leading down to the basement](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-05-uf33k-900.webp) ![Stairway entrance to Awesome Rose decorated with roses](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-06-qa7en-900.webp) ## Inside the rose-decorated basement dining room From the entrance leading down to the basement, roses were everywhere, giving it a completely different vibe from an ordinary pasta place. ![Interior of Awesome Rose decorated with flowers and props](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-07-cumss-900.webp) ![Table seating at Awesome Rose under soft lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-08-5r52s-900.webp) Inside, the space was full of flowers and sentimental little props, and the lighting was soft, making the whole place feel cozy. There were photo-worthy spots everywhere, so it seemed like a good place to visit not just for a meal but as a Garosu-gil date spot. The tables weren't cramped, and the classic mood made it a nice place to eat while chatting slowly. There were just two of us, but there were so many menu items we wanted to try that we ended up ordering three pastas. ## What two people ordered at Awesome Rose, and what it cost - White Rose Pasta ₩16,900 - Awesome Tomato Pasta ₩16,900 - Rose Aglio e Olio ₩16,900 - Coca-Cola Zero ₩0 - Total ₩50,700 ![Table and ordering tablet at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-09-10vot-900.webp) ![Pasta menu screen at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-10-s6gyb-900.webp) Ordering was simple, done right at the table. ![Ordering screen showing menu photos and prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-11-ytzjp-900.webp) ![Coca-Cola Zero prepared after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-12-d6xxf-900.webp) It was convenient to pick dishes while looking at photos and prices for each menu item, and after ordering, the Coke came out right away. ![Three plates of pasta set out on the table at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-13-wl6w9-1200.webp) Our order arrived. ![A plate of cream-sauce White Rose Pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-14-1lh9b-900.webp) ### White Rose Pasta, 16,900 won: the cream option As the name suggests, White Rose Pasta is built on a white cream sauce base. You could really taste the soft, nutty flavor of the cream sauce. It came with plenty of sauce, and the noodles were richly soaked in cream, so it was moist. ![Noodles of White Rose Pasta soaked in cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-15-1w0rx-900.webp) ![White Rose Pasta lifted up with a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-16-ywk87-900.webp) With the first bite, the soft flavor of the cream came through first, followed naturally by a nutty richness. It was more soft and moist than heavy, so it wasn't overwhelming to eat. It wasn't a strongly seasoned dish, so it was easy for anyone to enjoy, and it was the softest of the three pastas. ![Plating of Awesome Tomato Pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-17-1b9iy-900.webp) ### Awesome Tomato Pasta, 16,900 won: the tomato option Awesome Tomato Pasta had the tangy, rich flavor of tomato sauce alive and well. After the White Rose, eating this tomato pasta felt like it cleared the palate. ![Noodles blended with tomato sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-18-174j2-900.webp) The sauce blended naturally with the noodles, and it was a familiar, comfortable flavor. Alternating between the cream sauce and the tomato sauce made each one's distinct charm stand out even more. Rather than ordering just one menu item, it seems like a good idea to visit with several people and share different kinds. It was a Sinsa-station pasta restaurant that's good to visit with people who have different tastes, thanks to the variety of pasta types. ![A plate of oil-based Rose Aglio e Olio](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-19-61fu4-900.webp) ### Rose Aglio e Olio, 16,900 won: the oil option Rose Aglio e Olio is oil-based, so it was lighter to eat than the previous two menu items. ![Rose Aglio e Olio topped with an edible flower](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-20-1ieys-900.webp) The flower on top is an edible flower, so it can be eaten. The garlic aroma and the nutty richness of the oil soaked well into the noodles, and it wasn't overly greasy, so I kept reaching for more. Ordering all three sauces — cream, tomato, and oil — at once meant the flavors never overlapped, and the combination worked well too. ![Table with all three sauce-based pastas set together](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-21-id3p8-900.webp) ## Are three pasta plates too much for two people? Ordering three pasta plates for two of us seemed like it would be a lot, but each sauce had its own character, so we ate through all of them evenly. Pairing it with a Coke Zero in between made it feel even cleaner. Each dish arrived with tidy plating, letting us fully enjoy the atmosphere of a proper Garosu-gil pasta spot. ![Full view of the table set with the meal at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-22-jaaht-900.webp) Awesome Rose was a place where you could enjoy the store atmosphere along with the food. With the rose decorations and soft lighting, it seems like it would suit an anniversary or a blind date too. If you're looking for a good Apgujeong restaurant and want a meal at a Western restaurant with a nice atmosphere, it's worth putting on your list. All three types had different sauces, so it was fun to choose based on preference, and it was also good for sharing several dishes with a friend. I especially liked alternating between the creamy White Rose and the refreshing tomato pasta. ![Photo taken in front of the rose decorations at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-23-15g7f-900.webp) ![Rose photo zone at Awesome Rose](https://img.superchart.com/images/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas-24-1i7gq-m-900.webp) Awesome Rose is a good place to visit if you're looking for a Sinsa-station pasta restaurant with a nice atmosphere, or need a special Garosu-gil date spot. There's a good variety of pasta types and the photos come out pretty, so next time I'd like to try the set menu that includes steak. It was a Garosu-gil pasta spot where I got to enjoy both the atmosphere and several kinds of pasta. ## Awesome Rose Garosu-gil: hours, address and reservations - Address: 40 Apgujeong-ro 10-gil, B1, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - Hours: 11:00–22:00 (last order 21:30) - Parking: Valet available - Reservations: Naver Reservation and Catch Table available ## Where it is - Awesome Rose (어썸로즈) - 40 Apgujeong-ro 10-gil, B1, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 압구정로10길 40 지하1층 - 37.5209211, 127.0220822 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%96%B4%EC%8D%B8%EB%A1%9C%EC%A6%88/@37.5209211,127.0220822,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@bite-before-home/awesome-rose-garosugil-three-pastas/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
