Two people ordered the spicy cream pasta (19,000 won), the katsu sando and the Darak omurice (17,000 won) and cleared every plate, in a space defined by a low door shaped like a picture frame and a cozy attic mood. Seongsu Darak is an easy, no-fail pick for a date or a get-together with friends. ## Good to know - **Hours**: 11:30–21:15 - **Location**: 575m from Seongsu Station Exit 3 - **Seating**: 2nd and 3rd floors, groups welcome - **Darak Omurice**: 17,000 won - **Darak Rosé Pasta**: 19,000 won - **Pork Neck Steak**: 24,000 won - **Corn Gnocchi**: 19,000 won - **Beef Brisket Perilla Pasta**: 19,000 won - **Spicy Cream Pasta**: 19,000 won - **Flat Carbonara**: 19,000 won - **What we ordered**: Spicy cream pasta, katsu sando, omurice *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* It had been a while since I craved pasta, so I went to Seongsu Darak, famous as a Seongsu pasta restaurant. 😊 From the pasta to the katsu sando to the omurice, everything was satisfying overall. Each dish was solid enough that I'd recommend this place for a date or a meal with friends. > Seongsu Darak 📍Hours 11:30–21:15 📍Location: 575m from Seongsu Station Exit 3 ![Exterior of the Seongsu Darak building](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-01-jxh12-m-1200.webp) ## Where is the entrance to Seongsu Darak? Look for the picture-frame door Here's what the exterior looks like! That's not the door, haha. ![Seongsu Darak's exterior wall, which doesn't look like a door](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-02-6grq2-900.webp) The picture-frame-looking thing on the side is actually the door! Opening it felt like stepping into an attic. The entrance is low, so you have to duck your head to get in. ![Seongsu Darak's low entrance shaped like a picture frame](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-03-cwakw-900.webp) ## Seongsu Darak seating on the 2nd and 3rd floors, groups welcome Seongsu Darak's shop occupies the 2nd and 3rd floors~ ![Interior of Seongsu Darak leading up to the 2nd and 3rd floors](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-04-1n9w5-m-900.webp) This is the 2nd floor ![Seating on Seongsu Darak's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-05-1y7d1-900.webp) And this is the 3rd floor, haha.

THE BOYZ's Hyunjae seems to have visited here. There were THE BOYZ goods and photos in one corner! There was even a ![Seongsu Darak's menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-08-hbpsa-900.webp) ## Seongsu Darak menu and prices - Dalak Omurice — ₩17,000 - Dalak Rosé Pasta — ₩19,000 - Chapmokssal Pork Steak — ₩24,000 - Corn Gnocchi — ₩19,000 - Chadolbagi Perilla Pasta — ₩19,000 - Spicy Cream Pasta — ₩19,000 - Flat Carbonara — ₩19,000 I ordered spicy cream pasta, katsu sando, and omurice! ![Seongsu Darak's restroom with mouthwash provided](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-09-umi82-900.webp) The restroom was also super clean and satisfying. They even had mouthwash ready. ![Seongsu Darak's katsu sando with a thick tonkatsu cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-10-1u0nj-900.webp) ## Katsu sando: the one dish to order at Seongsu Darak One of the dishes I want to recommend is the katsu sando! The tonkatsu (pork cutlet) itself was really tasty. There's a thick piece of meat inside the bread, and the juiciness and texture of the cutlet were quite good. Crispy outside, soft inside — it went well alongside the pasta too. ![Katsu sando plate served with coleslaw](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-11-o1j80-900.webp) The katsu sando came with coleslaw on the side. Eating them together made for a great balance. If you visit Seongsu Darak, the katsu sando is a must-try. ✔️ ![A plate of Seongsu Darak's spicy cream pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-12-1dhoa-900.webp) ## How spicy is the spicy cream pasta at Seongsu Darak? If you like cream pasta, you'll enjoy this one without any issues. 😊 ![Spicy cream pasta with a thick cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-13-7c1wf-900.webp) ![Spicy cream pasta with sauce coating the noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-14-16pur-900.webp) The spice level is just barely mild, so even people who can't handle spicy food should be fine. The sauce is a thick cream base that paired well with the noodles, and the overall flavor was satisfying. 👍🏻👍🏻 ![Dalak omurice topped with egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-15-7r51p-900.webp) ![Close-up of Seongsu Darak's omurice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-16-14kps-900.webp) ## Darak omurice: the staff cut the egg open at your table Lately my Instagram algorithm keeps showing me videos of people making omurice (omelet rice)... I know how hard that is, so I was impressed to see every table at Seongsu Darak getting that same pretty egg omurice, haha. A staff member cuts the egg open with a knife right at the table! ![Omurice egg being cut open with a knife](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-17-17wwv-900.webp) ![Omurice egg spread softly over the rice with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-18-1uzgj-900.webp) The omurice was delicious too. The egg was soft and the combination of sauce and rice worked really well. It's not a flavor that would split opinions — I think anyone from adults to kids could enjoy it. ☺️ ![Table spread of pasta, katsu sando, and omurice ordered by two people](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-19-k1w7s-900.webp) ## Three dishes for two people at Seongsu Darak: was it too much food? It looked like a lot for two people, but it really wasn't too much — it was just right, haha. (Though I do feel like this is how I'll gain weight...) The variety in the Western-style menu makes this especially good when visiting with several people. Rather than just pasta, ordering the katsu sando and omurice alongside it let us try a nice range of dishes. ![Empty plates at Seongsu Darak after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak-20-fjp30-900.webp) We cleaned our plates completely... haha. The food was consistently good across the board, no misses. I think Seongsu Darak is a safe, reliable place to recommend for a date or a get-together with friends. It's right in the heart of the Seongsu hot spot area, so it's also great to fit into a route that includes visiting pop-up stores! ## Where it is - Seongsu Darak (성수다락) - 20 Ttukseom-ro 9-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 2nd floor - 서울특별시 성동구 뚝섬로9길 20 2층 - 37.5398955, 127.0562588 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%84%B1%EC%88%98%EB%8B%A4%EB%9D%BD/@37.5398955,127.0562588,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@hapjeong-quiet-alcove/seongsu-pasta-katsu-sando-omurice-darak/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
