## In short

The Mignon Seoul is a casual dining restaurant in a standalone two-story building midway between Gangnam Station Exit 11 and Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 6 in Gangnam, Seoul. The Mignon Seoul spreads across floors — a semi-open kitchen on the 1st, full-height windows on the 2nd, and a 3rd-floor rooftop that had not opened yet at the time of this visit — and the meal covered a seasonal fruit ricotta salad at 18,000 won, round pasta in bisque sauce, and an oven-baked popover pancake. It gets both the mood and the food right, which makes it an easy pick for a date or a group get-together.

What do you look for first when picking a meeting spot in Gangnam? Good subway access, a location you can find easily even on your first visit, a nice atmosphere, a varied menu. The place I'm introducing today nails both mood and taste — it's a Western food spot near Gangnam Station. Honestly!

It's a standalone two-story building, and even just the exterior gave me a European feel.

The outside really suits calling it an upscale restaurant near Gangnam Station. Walked in feeling a little excited ^-^

## 1st floor: semi-open kitchen and seating

### 1F

![Semi-open kitchen visible from the 1st floor entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-04-1lsep-966.webp)

The semi-open kitchen faces you right as you walk in. Even though it's open, there wasn't much noise or food smell. If anything, it made talking to staff easier, and the openness of the space felt good rather than cramped.

![1st floor hall with high ceilings and widely spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-05-1cfqt-966.webp)

![Overview of the modern 1st floor seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-06-dynz7-966.webp)

![Standalone 2-seat table in front of the kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-07-a6c30-966.webp)

There's a standalone 2-seat table right in front of the kitchen (personally, I wouldn't recommend that spot since it's right by the kitchen), and the tables are spaced wide apart, which makes for comfortable dining. High ceilings and a modern, upscale feel.

## What are the 2nd-floor window seats like?

### 2F

The 2nd floor has the same modern mood, but it feels even brighter thanks to sunlight coming through the floor-to-ceiling windows. There was a bit of chatter noise, which might be more noticeable when the floor is fully seated.

![2nd floor seating lit by floor-to-ceiling windows](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-08-1di78-966.webp)

## Is the 3rd-floor rooftop open?

### 3F rooftop (not open at the time of this visit)

![Open, window-filled 3rd floor rooftop space](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-09-14tzv-966.webp)

So many windows, so bright, and just great openness overall. (I love bright spaces, haha.)

With how hot it's been even at midday lately, I'd guess the rooftop will open a bit later.

![3rd floor rooftop seating being prepared before opening](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-10-4bo77-966.webp)

![Round ball-shaped light fixtures on the rooftop](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-11-15q8s-966.webp)

I'm guessing those round balls are lighting fixtures haha. Eating on the rooftop around sunset would feel amazing.

## Restrooms split by floor: women's on 1.5F, men's on 2.5F

![Lighting and mirror in the 1.5F women's restroom](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-12-176ca-966.webp)

Since there are many women customers, the women's restroom sits between the 1st and 2nd floors. You can tell they put thought into everything from the lighting to the mirror, whereas —

the men's restroom is just... a restroom haha. Feels rough for the chefs having to go up and down between floors?! But I liked that men's and women's are separated by floor.

## Menu, set options and the receipt review event

Just looking at the menu, this really does feel like a Western food spot near Gangnam Station. There are set menus for 2, 3, and 4 people (brunch, basic, main), plus plenty of à la carte options, so ordering a set and adding on works well too.

![The Mignon Seoul's set and à la carte menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-14-1auw4-966.webp)

Each menu item comes with detailed info, which really helped with ordering.

Receipt review event (one drink per table) — soda, coffee (latte works too), or tea, all options available!

![Neatly set table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-16-1pd3d-966.webp)

Clean table setting.

![Table quickly set after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-18-103yc-966.webp)

The food came out really fast, haha. The pancake takes about 20 minutes since it needs to bake in the oven.

## How the salad, bisque round pasta and popover pancake taste

Let me run through each dish.

![Salad topped with seasonal fruit and ricotta cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-19-c6ahj-966.webp)
*Seasonal fruit ricotta salad, ₩18,000*

Apple, kiwi, Shine Muscat grapes, lemon, cherry tomatoes, arugula, romaine, and other fresh veggies, along with cranberries and ricotta cheese, all worked well with the tangy dressing.

![Plate of pasta with minced meat cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-20-1lw6v-966.webp)

The cheese flavor really came through, and the finely minced meat in cream sauce was smooth with a strong nutty richness. I enjoyed it a lot, though the portion felt a bit small.

![Round pasta in bisque sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-21-1ypaq-966.webp)

![Close-up of bisque pasta topped with lotus root](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-22-1bazo-966.webp)

A savory bisque sauce with lotus root and pasta shaped like little round car tires — first time I'd ever had noodles like that, haha. Chewy texture, and the round shape made it easy to eat.

![Popover pancake puffed up from oven baking](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-23-ymzf7-966.webp)

![Pancake served with grilled banana and bacon](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta/gangnam-mignon-rooftop-bisque-pasta-24-ddzx7-966.webp)

The pancake puffs up from baking in the oven, and eating it together with grilled banana, arugula, ricotta cheese, bacon, and tomato was so good. Sweet enough to lift your mood too (highly recommend).

## Is The Mignon Seoul good for a date or a group meal?

The Mignon Seoul has an overall classic yet modern mood, making it a solid choice for a date or a group meal. Food came out fast for the most part, and the staff were kind.
