Pasta near Hanyang University ERICA, Ansan: Three Pasta

Budget-friendly pasta near Hanyang University ERICA

I was looking for somewhere to eat lunch near Hanyang University ERICA and ended up at Three Pasta Hanyang University ERICA branch. The menu had quite a variety — pasta, pilaf, pizza, risotto — and the prices weren't too much of a burden, so it seemed like a good spot to visit with a group and pick different things.

Close to the main gate of Hanyang University ERICA

The restaurant is about a 7-10 minute walk from the main gate of Hanyang University ERICA. It's right on the roadside, so it wasn't hard to find, and the big THREE PASTA sign out front made it easy to spot.

A casual atmosphere inside

The tables weren't cramped either

so it looked comfortable for eating alone or with friends.

Neon signs and posters scattered around gave it that hip, relaxed college-town feel. Not too formal a vibe, so it's easy to drop in without worrying about it.

The menu had quite a range

There were menu posters up on the wall, which gave it a bit more of a hip, relaxed feel than your typical pasta place~ K-tuscan, cheese fry pizza, pepperoni pizza, garlic pepper oil pasta — so many options! With cream, rosé, and oil-based pastas plus pilaf and risotto, it seemed like a good place to bring people with different tastes since there'd be no trouble finding something for everyone.

Baby chairs were also available, so it looked fine to visit with kids too.

What we ordered this time

Ordering straight from the tablet at the table was convenient.

• Bacon Cream Pasta ₩9,800
• Garlic Bulgogi Pilaf ₩9,800
• Shrimp Rosé Pasta ₩10,500

Even ordering all three came to just ₩30,100 total — pretty decent value considering how dining-out prices are these days.

Bacon Cream Pasta ₩9,800

First up, the bacon cream pasta. It came with a generous amount of cream sauce, along with bacon and mushrooms.

The sauce coated the noodles smoothly, and the savory cream paired well with the salty bacon.

A solid, safe choice if you like cream pasta.

Shrimp Rosé Pasta ₩10,500

The shrimp rosé pasta looked appetizing just from the color. The soft rosé sauce came with shrimp mixed in, and eating the plump shrimp added a nice texture too.

You could taste both the softness of the cream and the flavor of the tomato base together, which gave it a different charm from the cream pasta.

There was plenty of sauce, so it stayed moist all the way to the last bite.

Garlic Bulgogi Pilaf ₩9,800

The garlic bulgogi pilaf quietly held its own next to the pastas. With bulgogi (marinated beef), rice, seaweed flakes, and sauce, it felt like a hearty, filling meal overall.

Each spoonful came with a decent amount of bulgogi on top, and the sweet-savory bulgogi flavor combined with the garlic aroma was delicious. If ordering just pasta feels like it's missing something, this is a good one to order alongside and share.

Pickles came on the side too, which were nice to nibble on between bites.
