Hapjeong Neapolitan pizza with honey dip: Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station

If you're looking for a nice place in Hapjeong for pizza and pasta, I'd recommend Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station. It's run by Chef Lee Jin-hyung, who took first place at a pizza world cup, and it serves Neapolitan pizza straight out of the wood-fired oven along with a really wide range of pasta.

The place had a clean, comfortable atmosphere — good for a Hapjeong date or a first meeting, but also fine for lunch, dinner, or a glass of wine. The chewy wood-fired dough comes loaded with toppings, so pizza lovers will be satisfied. Here's my review of the pizza and pasta at Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station.

Where is Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station, and what is the room like?

Pizzeria O specializes in authentic Neapolitan wood-fired pizza and pasta, and it's been featured on shows like Kang's Kitchen and Running Man, so a lot of people have probably heard of it. It's close to Exit 2 of Hapjeong Station, so it's easy to reach by public transit.

The inside is clean and casual overall, with big tables and a warm interior, which made it a great spot for a comfortable Hapjeong date meal for two.

You could have a solid pizza-and-pasta lunch, or come back in the evening with a glass of wine — good for anyone looking for lunch, dinner, or wine spots in Hapjeong.

Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station menu and what two people ordered

The menu centers on Neapolitan wood-fired pizza, with a really wide range: Margherita, 'Nduja, Quattro Formaggi, Quattro Funghi, Gorgonzola, Prosciutto e Rucola, and more.

There's also pasta — Aglio e Olio, Carbonara, Puttanesca, Ragu. We ordered 'Nduja, Quattro Formaggi, and Puttanesca that day.

• 'Nduja ₩22,900
• Quattro Formaggi ₩20,900
• Puttanesca ₩24,900

The dishes came out one by one, and since the pizzas were fresh from the wood-fired oven, the crust edges were beautifully puffed up and piled with cheese and toppings — the visual alone was impressive >_< With the pasta on the table too, it was a really generous spread.

'Nduja pizza, 22,900 won: spicy chorizo and buffalo mozzarella

First up, the 'Nduja pizza. It's a spicy Neapolitan-style pizza topped with house-made 'nduja (spicy Italian sausage spread), buffalo mozzarella, chorizo, and roasted garlic.

With cheese and chorizo piled generously over the tomato sauce, a spicy, savory aroma hit as soon as it arrived.

On the first bite, the deep umami and spice of the 'nduja hit first, then the soft, nutty buffalo mozzarella came in to balance it out — a really good combination. With the salty richness of the chorizo and the nuttiness of roasted garlic on top, it was addictive; I kept reaching for more!

Quattro Formaggi, 20,900 won: four cheeses dipped in honey

Next, the Quattro Formaggi. If you love cheese, you'll love this one for sure.

It's a cheese-forward wood-fired pizza blending four specialty cheeses. With cheese melted all over the top, it looked incredibly rich just from the visual.

On the first bite, each cheese layered in with slightly different notes, and a salty, deep richness filled my mouth ㅜㅜ

Eating it with the chewy wood-fired dough really brought out the cheese flavor even more. And if you dip it in a little honey, the sweetness against the salty cheese makes for a much more delicious sweet-and-salty combo!

Puttanesca pasta, 24,900 won: anchovy and olive savoriness

Alongside the pizzas we ordered the Puttanesca pasta. It's a Neapolitan-style pasta combining strong-umami ingredients like anchovy, Kalamata olives, capers, and tomato.

On the first bite, the bright tomato base came through first, followed by the salty umami of anchovy and the flavor of olives and capers! The taste felt much more layered and rich — the umami kept building the more I ate.

We enjoyed both the fresh wood-fired pizza and the deeply flavorful pasta — I'd recommend Pizzeria O for a Hapjeong date.
