Catching up with an old friend, the writer ordered the beef shank rice noodle soup made spicy with extra coriander, plus pu pad pong curry with soft-shell crab. Between the window seat and the open kitchen, Soi Nana delivered on both the food and the mood. ## Good to know - **Address**: 37 Seongsui-ro 22-gil, 1F, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Soi Nana Seongsu) - **Hours**: 11:00–22:00, break 15:00–17:00 - **Location**: Near Seongsu Station Exit 2 - **Parking**: Parking in the building, 1 hour free - **Pets**: Pets welcome - **What we ordered**: Beef shank rice noodle soup (spicy, extra coriander), pu pad pong curry *as written by the visitor on Sep 14, 2026* I wanted something special to eat with a friend I hadn't seen in a while.

The moment I stepped inside, the rattan lighting and palm-leaf parasols gave me the illusion of actually being on a trip to Thailand. Sunlight pouring in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, exotic interior — the atmosphere alone already made it feel like a great restaurant. Good stuff!! ![Interior with rattan lighting and palm-leaf parasols](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-03-18l71-900.webp) ![Window seats lit by sunlight through floor-to-ceiling glass](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-04-5a0si-900.webp) ## The two dishes we ordered at Soi Nana Among Soi Nana's many Thai dishes, we ordered the two most representative ones. - Beef shank pho (spicy) - Pu pad pong curry ![Table with pho and pu pad pong curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-05-1a87o-900.webp) ### Beef shank rice noodle soup, ordered spicy A basic pho, but changed to spicy with extra coriander added on top. Deep, rich broth with tender beef shank and rice noodles. Add the spiciness and the coriander's aroma on top of that, and it really woke up my appetite. ![Spicy beef shank pho as ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-06-hpf64-900.webp) ![A bowl of pho with extra coriander](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-07-eugjy-900.webp) ![Close-up of rice noodles and beef shank](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-08-58m9y-900.webp) ![Spicy pho with rich broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-09-1tyfm-900.webp) ### Pu pad pong curry with soft-shell crab Tender soft-shell crab, fried and then stir-fried together with a sweet, savory coconut cream curry. The combination of crispy fried crab and smooth curry was great. ![Soft-shell crab pu pad pong curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-10-r5ffu-900.webp) ![Coconut cream curry with fried crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-11-1lvuy-900.webp) ![A plate of pu pad pong curry at Soi Nana Seongsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-12-1pp8w-1200.webp) ## Is Soi Nana Seongsu worth a visit? 'Soi Nana' was a Thai restaurant where both the taste and the atmosphere were perfect. Every single dish carried an authentic local flavor, and the exotic atmosphere let me really soak in the feeling of a trip to Thailand. Next time I want to try the good-value set menus or some of the other curries. If you're looking for a special date or gathering spot in Seongsu-dong, I'd recommend Soi Nana Seongsu. ![View of the exotic dining hall at Soi Nana](https://img.superchart.com/images/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai-13-1k64j-900.webp) ## Tips before you go to Soi Nana Sitting by the window, there was a nice breeze and exotic music playing, which made the atmosphere even better. Because it's an open kitchen, you can watch the cooking happen right in front of you, which built a lot of trust. Plenty of couples on dates and friends catching up too — a lively atmosphere all around. ## Where it is - Soi Nana (소이나나) - 37 Seongsuiro 22-gil, 1F, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 성동구 성수이로22길 37 1층 Soi Nana 성수점 - 37.5439142, 127.0613915 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%86%8C%EC%9D%B4%EB%82%98%EB%82%98/@37.5439142,127.0613915,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gwangju-seoul-pause/soi-nana-seongsu-window-seat-thai/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
