On a daytime return visit with my mom, we shared Polpo Mambo and Alligot Cheese Lasagna for 25,000 won and 22,000 won. Verdict: a lovely pick for an unhurried lunch after a Seoul Forest walk. ## Good to know - **Alligot Cheese Lasagna**: ₩22,000 - **Polpo Mambo**: ₩25,000 - **Seating**: Indoor seating and terrace seating - **Visit conditions**: Walk-ins welcome; Naver reservations recommended on weekends and at mealtimes *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* I visited Billadeubeulleu Seongsu for lunch while on a Seoul Forest date with my mom. I remembered it as a place with good food after visiting once before, so this time I came back with my mom! I went in the evening last time and during the day this time, and Billadeubeulleu was quite good as a brunch spot too. ![Brunch space at Billadeubeulleu Seongsu on a return visit](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-01-cwgt4-900.webp) ![Billadeubeulleu Seongsu brunch near Seoul Forest](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-02-e4pm0-900.webp) ![Billadeubeulleu Seongsu during a daytime visit](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-03-1mri4-900.webp) ## Getting there after a Seoul Forest walk Come out of Seoul Forest Station Exit 5, and use the Seongdong-gu Community Sports Center parking building as your reference point. Enter the little woodland-path alley at the far left, where you will reach the beginning of Atelier-gil. After leaving the path, go about 30 m to the left; you will see Seongsu Baking Studio, and the restaurant is farther inside the alley to its right. It is an easy walk while strolling around Seoul Forest, so it works nicely as a Seoul Forest date-and-brunch course. You can walk in without a reservation, but I also recommend using Naver Reservation on weekends or at mealtimes! ![Location of Billadeubeulleu Seongsu near Seoul Forest Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-04-cbln0-900.webp) ![Brunch restaurant found after a Seoul Forest walk](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-05-1he46-900.webp) ![Alley entrance to Billadeubeulleu Seongsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-06-1x3un-900.webp) ## A terrace atmosphere that was even better by day My last visit had more of an evening mood, but the space felt completely different during the day this time. The weather was especially nice, too—perfect for enjoying brunch on the terrace. Billadeubeulleu Seongsu has both indoor and terrace seating, so I think it would be great for an outdoor meal on a pleasant spring or autumn day. With the daylight coming in, it felt much brighter and fresher than on my evening visit, and it was just right for a relaxed lunch and chat with my mom after walking around Seoul Forest. ![Indoor seating filled with natural daylight](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-07-o4v3u-900.webp) ![Terrace seating on a beautiful day](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-08-15aly-900.webp) ## The Southern Italian dishes we ordered You can scan the QR code to view the menu, which has a range of Southern Italian dishes including pasta, risotto, steak, octopus dishes, and salads. We ordered two dishes this time. - Alligot Cheese Lasagna ₩22,000 - Polpo Mambo ₩25,000 We reordered the lasagna we had last time, and tried the Polpo Mambo for the first time! ![Alligot Cheese Lasagna and Polpo Mambo order](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-09-bn9yp-900.webp) ## Just how tender was the Polpo Mambo octopus? First up was the Polpo Mambo, which I was trying for the first time. ![Polpo Mambo ordered for the first time](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-10-6xfb9-900.webp) ![Octopus dish with romesco sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-11-1h6ch-900.webp) It is a Mediterranean-style octopus dish served with romesco sauce, potatoes, and peas. Personally, I do not reach for octopus when it is chewy, but the octopus here was incredibly tender. It was easy to cut with a fork, and there was very little chewiness when eating it, so it went down so easily. ![Tender octopus served with potatoes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-12-1tzpy-900.webp) ![Polpo Mambo that is easy to eat with a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-13-eibn2-900.webp) And the potatoes served with the octopus were soooo good! Having the octopus with the romesco sauce and potatoes rather than on its own made everything come together in a nutty, flavorful way. Adding the peas gave each bite slightly different textures, so I just kept eating haha. ![Octopus dish with potatoes and peas](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-14-7izlp-900.webp) My mom taking photos. She is honestly an even more dedicated blogger than I am! The octopus was especially tender, so if you like octopus dishes, I think this is well worth ordering. ![Octopus dish meal with my mom](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-15-101cp-900.webp) ![Alligot Cheese Lasagna ordered again](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-16-1j29b-900.webp) ## The Alligot Cheese Lasagna we ordered again The Alligot Cheese Lasagna was one of the reasons I revisited Billadeubeulleu. I had it last time too, but ended up ordering it again this time lol. It is one of Billadeubeulleu's signature dishes: lasagna topped with a cascading cheese sauce. ![Alligot Cheese Lasagna with cheese sauce being poured over it](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-17-kkc3p-1200.webp) The lasagna arrives first, then a staff member pours the cheese sauce over it, and watching the cheese stream down right in front of you is fun. It was a memorable performance on my first visit, and seeing it again on this return visit confirmed that it is definitely the highlight of this dish. But really, taste matters more than the performance, right? ![Lasagna performance with flowing cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-18-odroe-900.webp) ![Lasagna with rich sauce and cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna-19-1md2v-900.webp) The lasagna itself was great to eat too, with the sauce and cheese blending nicely into a thick, savory richness. With all that cheese, it could easily have been too heavy, but it was more balanced than expected alongside the lasagna sauce. The portion was also enough for two people to share with one other dish. If you visit as a pair like we did, I recommend ordering one lasagna plus one other dish to share. Once again, it was satisfying in both taste and portion size. I enjoyed it on my previous visit too, but coming back during the day gave me a different atmosphere to enjoy, and I was glad I revisited. If you want a leisurely meal around Seoul Forest or brunch somewhere with a lovely mood, I recommend Billadeubeulleu Seongsu :) ## Where it is - Billadeubeulleu Seongsu (빌라드블루 성수) - 46-10 Seoulsup 2-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울특별시 성동구 서울숲2길 46-10 1층) - 서울특별시 성동구 서울숲2길 46-10 1층 - 37.5461607, 127.0434999 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B9%8C%EB%9D%BC%EB%93%9C%EB%B8%94%EB%A3%A8%20%EC%84%B1%EC%88%98/@37.5461607,127.0434999,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-wooden-menu/seongsu-brunch-octopus-lasagna/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
