I visited with my child and ordered truffle aglio e olio, mushroom basil pesto cream risotto, chicken salad, and green grape ade. Even from a seat set back from the sea, the view was broad, and the portions were generous. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1189 Huimang-daero, 4th floor, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea - **Hours**: 11:45–21:00; closed Tuesdays - **Break time**: 15:30–17:00 - **Parking**: Free public parking behind the building; the administrative welfare center lot on the right was also listed as available - **Ocean-view seating reservations**: The original post says advance Naver reservations are needed; same-day reservations were also available - **Chicken salad**: ₩13,000 - **Ordering**: Tablet ordering - **For children**: High chairs and tableware available; truffle aglio e olio spice level can be adjusted - **Group seating and terrace**: Two ocean-view group tables and a terrace *as written by the visitor on Sep 2, 2026* I had visited Plan A Restaurant (플랜에이레스토랑) on a trip to Pohang before getting married, and this time I went with my child. I remembered having a meal while looking at the sea in front of Songdo Beach. ![Plan A Restaurant opposite Songdo Beach in Pohang](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-95b3/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-01-io0f8-1200.webp) ![Plan A Restaurant, an ocean-view restaurant by Songdo Beach](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-02-1vxyo-966.webp) ## Where is it near Songdo Beach, and was parking easy? The restaurant is on the fourth floor of a building directly opposite Songdo Beach. The address is 1189 Huimang-daero, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do. ![Plan A Restaurant building opposite Songdo Beach](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-03-1xhkr-966.webp) We parked in the free public parking lot behind the building. Although we visited on a weekend, it was spacious and had plenty of room. A notice also said that the administrative welfare center parking lot to the right of the building could be used. ![Public parking lot behind Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-04-b91eo-966.webp) At the time of my visit, the posted hours were 11:45–21:00, with regular closure on Tuesdays. There was a break time from 15:30 to 17:00. ![Entry information for Plan A Restaurant visitors](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-05-1eis0-966.webp) ![Usage information near Plan A Restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-06-1ordv-966.webp) ## Do ocean-view seats need a reservation? The indoor space had sea views from both sides, so it felt very open. When we went, all the seats closest to the sea were reserved. A notice said to reserve ahead through Naver if you want those seats, and same-day reservations were also possible. ![Restaurant interior with sea views on both sides](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-07-odz1x-966.webp) There were also seats farther inside. ![Inner seating area at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-08-154ib-966.webp) We sat a little farther back from the sea. It was not the front row, but the wider view actually let us take in the blue sea at a glance. I was happy to have a relaxed meal while looking out at the water. ![Wide Songdo sea view from a back seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-09-ibgu9-966.webp) ## What is it like for dining with children or family gatherings? There were two ocean-view group tables. A large family was dining at one of them, so I did not take a photo. ![Restaurant group seating with ocean views](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-10-1osx4-966.webp) We could also step out onto the terrace. In the sea breeze, we looked at the view of the sea together with the POSCO steelworks. ![Restaurant terrace overlooking the Pohang sea](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-11-128w9-966.webp) ![Pohang sea and steelworks view from the terrace](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-12-z4c2h-966.webp) High chairs and tableware were available. There was also plenty of room indoors, which made it comfortable to dine with a child. ![Child-friendly amenities at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-13-z6vv6-966.webp) ![Chair and tableware for dining with a child](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-14-mumad-966.webp) ## What did we order, and how were the prices? There were steak, pasta, risotto, salad, and fried dishes, and we ordered by tablet. We chose truffle aglio e olio, mushroom basil pesto cream risotto, chicken salad, and green grape ade. ![Western menu information at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-15-xb7up-966.webp) ![Meal menu choices at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-16-1d2bw-966.webp) ![Ordering menu screen at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-17-xfhg0-966.webp) ### How was the portion and taste of the ₩13,000 chicken salad? The chicken salad arrived first and cost ₩13,000. I was not expecting much, but the portion was more generous than I thought. It included chicken, tomatoes, nuts, salad greens, and cheese. ![Salad with chicken, vegetables, nuts, and cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-18-1h5yw-966.webp) The vegetables were fresh, and the chicken was crisp outside and tender inside. We shared it as an appetizer, but seeing the portion, I thought it would also work as a meal for one person. Sipping green grape ade while looking at the sea made it feel as though I had come to a café. Watching people enjoy leisure activities on the beach made the wait pass quickly. ![Green grape ade with a meal overlooking the sea](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-19-65oqq-966.webp) Soon, the rest of our order arrived. It looked like the menu photos, and considering the ocean view and the portions, the prices did not feel burdensome. ![Pasta and risotto ordered by the family](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-20-1ewsq-966.webp) ### What did the risotto my child liked best taste like? The mushroom basil pesto cream risotto came on a large plate, so it looked generous from the start. It was the dish my child enjoyed most that day. ![Mushroom basil pesto cream risotto on a large plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-21-1y2nv-966.webp) It was rich and savory. The sauce was thick and creamy, making it easy to eat, and the chewy mushrooms went well with the soft rice grains. ![Cream risotto with mushrooms and rice grains](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-22-o0qqo-966.webp) ### Can the spice level of the truffle aglio e olio be adjusted? The spice level of the truffle aglio e olio could be adjusted. Since my child would be eating it too, I asked for it to be made completely non-spicy. ![Truffle aglio e olio shared with a child](https://img.superchart.com/images/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-23-1ango-966.webp) It was a clean-tasting oil pasta with a pronounced truffle aroma. The noodles were pleasantly chewy and well coated in oil, so they went down smoothly. This time I came with my child, but I also thought it would suit a date or anniversary meal when you want to dine leisurely while looking at the sea. If you want a seat close to the water, it is worth arranging a reservation. ## Where it is - Plan A Restaurant (플랜에이레스토랑) (플랜에이레스토랑) - 1189 Huimang-daero, 4th floor, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea - 경상북도 포항시 남구 희망대로 1189 4층 - 36.0354154, 129.3796437 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%8C%EB%9E%9C%EC%97%90%EC%9D%B4%EB%A0%88%EC%8A%A4%ED%86%A0%EB%9E%91/@36.0354154,129.3796437,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@meal-map/plan-a-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-95b3/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
