On a rainy day, the blogger and their mom sat at a big ocean-view window and shared Set B (Mare Brunch, kabocha pumpkin soup and 2 coffees, 34,500 won) and pistachio cream gnocchi (25,000 won), and both the neat brunch plate and the first-ever pistachio gnocchi were satisfying. For unusual gnocchi with a sea view, Marento is worth a stop. ## Good to know - **Address**: Unit 101, 1F, 17-9 Gwanganhaebyeon-ro 344beon-gil, Suyeong-gu, Busan - **Hours**: Mon, Wed–Sat 11:00–24:00; Sun 11:00–21:00 - **Closed**: Every Tuesday - **Parking**: Paid public lot at the waterside park in front; 1,000 won discount per table - **Pets**: Welcome at outdoor tables - **Set B**: Choice of Mare Brunch, Eggs Benedict or fruit French toast + kabocha pumpkin soup + 2 coffees, 34,500 won - **Pistachio cream gnocchi**: 25,000 won - **Receipt review event**: Free Americano or mini tortilla gorgonzola pizza - **Price reference**: ₩1,000 ≈ $0.8 · ₩25,000 ≈ $19 (2026-10-20) *as written by the visitor on Jun 21, 2026* ![Marento, a Gwangalli restaurant in Millak, main photo](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-01-1yx8h-966.webp) I visited Marento, a restaurant in Millak, Suyeong-gu, Busan, near Gwangalli. It's a lovely Gwangalli brunch café by day and turns into a moody Millak bar at night. Here's my honest review of the signature pistachio cream gnocchi and the generous Set B. ## Marento hours and parking info Marento is at 17-9 Gwanganhaebyeon-ro 344beon-gil, Suyeong-gu, Busan (Unit 101, 1st floor).

The interior is white and wood, with big windows looking out onto Gwangalli's sea. It's bright yet cozy, the very picture of a sentimental brunch café, and the tables are spaced widely, so it was great for chatting comfortably over a meal. The view is wide open through the big windows, and it really feels like a Gwangalli restaurant. It was rainy and a bit gloomy that day, which had its own charm, but it'd feel different on a sunny day, right?! The fun part is that Marento transforms at night. In the evening it becomes a moody Millak bar that's just right for a glass of wine. With both a day and night side, it gives you a different vibe whenever you visit. ## Marento menu and prices ![First page of the Marento menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-08-1rj7t-945.webp) ![Italian dishes page of the Marento menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-09-75zdl-944.webp) ![Brunch page of the Marento menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-10-1h0os-944.webp) ![Set menu page of the Marento menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-11-43w0v-944.webp) ![Drinks and alcohol page of the Marento menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-12-iqc5f-945.webp) The menu runs from Italian dishes like pasta, risotto, gnocchi and pizza to brunch items like salads and open sandwiches. It's put together so you can enjoy anything from a full meal to light snacks depending on when you visit, and the drinks are solid too: basic coffees, ades, teas, plus wine and highballs for the night mood. What caught my eye were the set menus, which give you a generous spread at a more reasonable price than ordering à la carte. I wanted to try a bit of everything, so I chose Set B and added the pistachio cream gnocchi I was so curious about. ## Marento Set B: what comes with it? - Set B (Mare Brunch + pumpkin soup + 2 coffees) ₩34,500 - Pistachio cream gnocchi ₩25,000 ![Table spread of Marento Set B and pistachio cream gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-13-5rebf-966.webp) For Set B's main you can choose Mare Brunch, Eggs Benedict or fruit French toast, and we went with Mare Brunch~ ![Iced and hot coffee included in Set B](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-14-8j8xg-966.webp) The coffee that comes with the set arrived first. Iced for me, hot for mom! It's not too strong, just nicely nutty, so it doesn't overpower the food and keeps your palate clean. ![Set coffee on the table at Marento](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-15-r3x2q-966.webp) By the way, if you join the Naver receipt review event, Marento gives you a free Americano or a mini tortilla gorgonzola pizza! ![Marento brunch table fully laid out](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-16-zlpca-1200.webp) A brunch spread so prettily laid out 💛 ![Marento brunch spread on a wood table](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-17-1y18x-966.webp) While I was taking photos, mom jumped up and started shooting too, haha. She was so happy she could see the sea 🤭 It goes perfectly with the wood table, pure vibes. ![Mare Brunch plate, the main of Set B](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-18-om7ng-966.webp) ![Mare Brunch with sausage, bacon and scrambled eggs](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-19-bc75j-966.webp) ### Mare Brunch: what's in it and how it tastes The heart of Set B, Mare Brunch, is salad greens, scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon, and toasted bread. It comes out full and neat enough to catch your eye at once: fresh greens, soft scrambled eggs, juicy sausage and bacon, golden toast, a textbook brunch. Everything tasted fresh, not heavy-handed, just clean and easy to enjoy. ![Close-up of the Mare Brunch components](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-20-7tonn-966.webp) ![Salad and toasted bread from Mare Brunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-21-zlvc8-966.webp) ### Pumpkin soup The pumpkin soup in Set B isn't artificially sweet; it has a natural, deep sweetness from the pumpkin itself that spreads creamily. It's a great appetizer to get your appetite going before the main meal. ![Pumpkin soup included in Set B](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-22-1tuk1-966.webp) ![Pumpkin soup served with bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-23-1541r-966.webp) Dipping the bread that came with it into the smooth soup was such a good combo~ ![Marento pistachio cream gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi-24-1maa2-m-966.webp) ## How is Marento's pistachio cream gnocchi? Marento's pistachio cream gnocchi (₩25,000) has pistachio in a thick, rich cream sauce for a deep nutty flavor. The pistachio isn't overpowering like a dessert, so if you like cream gnocchi, it's an easy crowd-pleaser. The gnocchi were chewy and a bit fried-tasting outside, soft inside. I really love gnocchi and have eaten at a lot of gnocchi spots, but I'd never had pistachio-based gnocchi, so I had to try it. The look passed right away, and on the first bite the pistachio's signature nuttiness filling my mouth with the smooth cream was fresh and appealing. Piled with plenty of cream sauce, the plainness of the potato and the richness of the sauce balance out wonderfully. If you love gnocchi and pistachio like me, I think it's worth trying. ## Marento overall: who is it for? Marento is a Gwangalli restaurant that gave me a satisfying time with its clean, stylish interior, generous set menus and original pistachio cream gnocchi. Just being able to try gnocchi with a distinctive sauce you don't see often makes it worth a visit. By day it's a relaxed Gwangalli brunch café full of sunlight, and by evening a hideout where you sip wine under cozy lighting, so it works for date courses and get-togethers with friends alike. If you're looking for a place in Busan with both atmosphere and flavor, I strongly recommend dropping by. ## Where it is - Marento (마렌토) - 17-9 Gwanganhaebyeon-ro 344beon-gil, Suyeong-gu, Busan, South Korea (Unit 101, 1st floor) - 부산광역시 수영구 광안해변로344번길 17-9 1층 101호 - 35.1551772, 129.1311958 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%88%EB%A0%8C%ED%86%A0/@35.1551772,129.1311958,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@late-harbor-meals/millak-sea-view-brunch-set-gnocchi/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
