Omil Hyehwa Daehangno is on the 2nd floor of 35 Daemyeong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, 163m from Exit 4 of Hyehwa Station on Line 4. It's open Mon–Fri 11:30–21:15 (with a break 15:15–16:30), and Sat–Sun 11:30–21:15 with no break, last order at 20:30. I visited around noon on a Sunday and there were about 5 parties waiting — I think I waited around 15 minutes! I'd recommend making a reservation. No parking available! It's close to the subway station and bus stops, so public transit is recommended 💭 ![Entrance to the building on Daemyeong-gil in Hyehwa where Omil is located](https://img.superchart.com/images/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu-02-cp55o-m-900.webp) ![Stairs leading up to the 2nd floor at Omil Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu-03-1wlaa-m-900.webp) ![Entrance signage on the 2nd floor of Omil Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu-04-1djcf-900.webp) Head up to the 2nd floor and you'll find Omil right there! ![Cute exterior of Omil Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu-05-1vjp5-900.webp) ## Inside Omil Hyehwa Daehangno: atmosphere and seating Isn't the exterior just adorable!! ![Tables inside Omil packed with customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu/omil-hyehwa-sunday-lunch-cheese-katsu-06-1jqt6-m-900.webp) The tables inside were 5 for 4 people and 5 for 2 people haha.
