Dongseong-ro, Daegu pasta place: pollock roe cream pasta, Resting07

I visited Resting07, a Western restaurant in Dongseong-ro, Daegu. I had a really good meal, from pasta to pilaf to salad, haha. Let me tell you all about it!

Where is Resting07, and what are the opening hours?

Resting07 is at 67 Dongseong-ro 3-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu, on the 2nd floor. It is open 11:30–21:00 with last order at 20:20. There is no break time, and you can book through Naver.

It's super easy to get to! Banwoldang Station, Spark Land and 2.28 Memorial Park are all within walking distance, so it's convenient if you're hunting for a good place in Dongseong-ro, haha. The restaurant is on the 2nd floor, so just head up the stairs.

There's a full-length mirror at the top of the stairs, which gives off a lovely photo-spot vibe, haha.

Waiting and reservations at Resting07

When there's no free table, you need to come inside and write your name on the waiting list. Naver booking is available on both weekdays and weekends, so if you're planning a visit I recommend booking, haha.

What are the atmosphere and seating like at Resting07?

Step inside and the white and wood interior catches your eye. It feels clean yet warm. (Totally recommended as a date spot in Dongseong-ro, Daegu!!)

There are 9 tables in total: 2 by the window, 3 rooms and 4 in the central hall.

The rooms are arched spaces that are separated from the rest, so they're great for chatting comfortably and having a relaxed meal. I chose a room too, and it felt cozier than the hall seats, which I loved.

How to order at Resting07, and the receipt review event

You order on the kiosk at each table. It's neatly organized by category, like pasta, pilaf and salad, so choosing is easy, haha.

They also run a Naver receipt review event. If you join, you can pick one of a mini salad, corn cheese or a soft drink. There's a good range, so you can choose to your taste, and they go well with a meal. The review event is seriously good.

What is the birthday event at Resting07?

Resting07 also has a birthday event. You can choose one glass of ade, cocktail or wine, and they prepare a glass and a pen so you can letter on the glass. It sounds like a great option for a lunch or dinner on your birthday, haha.

What I ate at Resting07

Chewy, soft bread to start

The first thing to arrive is bread. It's chewy yet soft, and the texture is really good! Dipped in olive oil with balsamic, it gets a tangy, subtle flavor that makes a nice light start before the meal.

Ricotta cheese salad (₩7,700)

The ricotta cheese salad is generously topped with fresh lettuce, cherry tomatoes and ricotta cheese. The colors are so pretty too, haha.

Crunchy lettuce, fresh and sweet cherry tomatoes, and soft, nutty ricotta make a really tasty combination. At ₩7,700 the price isn't a burden either. It's a nice light side before the mains, so I recommend ordering it too, haha (avoiding a blood sugar spike is a must, right!).

Gamberi pilaf topped with plump shrimp

The shrimp in the gamberi pilaf are totally bouncy, and the bits of onion and garlic chive stems you bite into now and then add a nutty, savory depth. So good!!

Best of all, it's really packed with plump shrimp. We've all been disappointed by shrimp pilaf with tiny shrimp and only a few of them, right,, but the gamberi pilaf here has big shrimp and lots of them, so if you like shrimp pilaf, definitely try it! (I admit it's a Dongseong-ro must-eat,,)

Pollock roe cream pasta loaded with roe

The pollock roe cream pasta has a nutty cream sauce piled with pollock roe. The smooth, rich cream and the salty savoriness of the roe make it an easy pasta to eat, and I recommend it.

I mixed the roe into the sauce once and ate it with the mushrooms, and it was even better! The noodles are slightly thicker than regular pasta, but the texture actually suits the cream sauce, so I liked it even more.

Cool, refreshing lemonade

The lemonade has tangy lemon plus the fizzy freshness of carbonation, and it goes well with the pollock roe cream pasta and the gamberi pilaf!

Who would I recommend Resting07 to?

Resting07 in Dongseong-ro, Daegu is a place to enjoy generous Western food at good value in a clean, cozy setting.

It's close to Banwoldang Station, 2.28 Memorial Park and Dongseong-ro, so access is great. I'd recommend it for get-togethers with friends, family meals or dates, haha. Give Resting07 in Dongseong-ro, Daegu a visit!
