Euljiro greenhouse rooftop bar for group dinners: Another Level

Hi everyone. Today I've got a deep-dive review of Another Level, and it's a hot one.

Another Level is a bar-restaurant just 152 meters from Exit 10 of Euljiro 3-ga Station, on the 4th floor along Euljiro12-gil. It's even carrying the title of a Naver-verified creator's pick, so I couldn't not go check it out 👀

What is the rooftop at Another Level like?

Walk into the 4th floor of Another Level and the first thing you notice is the spacious, comfortable group seating. The tables are set well apart and the atmosphere is great, making it the perfect spot for a group dinner or company outing.

But the real deal is the rooftop. It has this huge greenhouse feel, with a big garden right in the middle and seats wrapped around it. Maybe because it's so full of greenery, it feels strangely relaxing even though you're right in the middle of downtown 🌿

If you sit by the window, you get to enjoy the downtown night view too, which makes this a great choice for a date or a special group dinner. A bonus is that a tent gets set up on rainy days, so you can still use the outdoor seats even in the rain ☔

The signature: spicy ttukbaegi (stone pot) pasta

Looking at Another Level's menu, there's a wide variety — gambas al ajillo, yukhoe, chicken wings, pasta — but there's one dish that keeps coming up in every single review. That's the spicy ttukbaegi (stone pot) pasta.

It's got impact from the moment it arrives, bubbling away in a huge stone pot, and the flavor is spicy yet deeply savory, which pairs really well with drinks. A nice detail is that being served in a stone pot keeps it warm for a long time, and a lot of reviews mention that the spicy heat almost feels like a hangover cure 🍜🔥

On top of that, side dishes like chicken lollipops and cream cheese-stuffed dried persimmon rolls are all handmade, and you can really taste the freshness. The focaccia pepperoni pan pizza also ranks among the popular menu items, and it goes great alongside the pasta 🍕

Why the pasta is made for somaek (beer and soju)

To be honest, Another Level is a place with a great atmosphere for drinking somaek (soju + beer), and the side dishes are insanely good value too. The lineup of popular drinks like Terra draft beer and Suntory highball is solid, so there's fun in choosing what to drink.

There's data showing the average payment per visit is around ₩70,000, and considering that's usually a group ordering a variety of side dishes together, I don't think that's a burdensome price at all. With good amenities too — Wi-Fi, separate men's and women's restrooms, group seating, and reservations — this is a place where satisfaction is bound to be high 👍

Visit tips: last order and booking a rooftop table

Last order at Another Level is 11:00 PM, and apparently Tuesday at 8 PM is the busiest time slot, so keep that in mind. You can also book the rooftop 2-seat and 3-4 seat tables through Naver Reservations, so if you're after the rooftop, I'd recommend booking ahead 📱

The place will be closed September 25-26 for the Chuseok holiday, and on the 22nd only the rooftop outdoor seats will be unavailable due to a private group booking, so check before you visit.

If you look at the side dishes, you can tell they don't skimp on a single ingredient, not even the basic banchan. The olives, sauces, and seasonings are all high-quality ingredients, thoughtfully prepared.

Is Another Level worth it for a group night out?

If you're trying to decide on a bar near Euljiro 3-ga, I highly recommend Another Level. The rooftop atmosphere, the addictiveness of the spicy ttukbaegi pasta, and the perfect vibe for a somaek all come together flawlessly here.

Whether it's a group dinner or a date, this one place will guarantee the atmosphere 🙌
