A Naver reservation secured a window table, where the ragu pasta arrived layered with cheese above and below and came with enough noodles and sauce to be a filling meal on its own, alongside a grapefruit tea. HEOD Gongdeok is a good pick when you want a walk along the forest trail and brunch in one trip. ## Good to know - **Address**: 24 Gwangseong-ro 6-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, 1st floor - **Location**: About a 3–4 minute walk from Daeheung Station - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:30–18:00 - **Ordered**: Ragu pasta, grapefruit tea - **Reservations**: Available via Naver Reservation (window seat assigned) - **Dogs**: Dogs welcome - **Gatherings**: Suitable for wedding-invitation lunches, birthdays, family meals and group gatherings *as written by the visitor on Sep 20, 2026* Hey guys, it's Gildong 😎😎 This week was a total blur — I was moving house and then had to handle my grandmother's funeral, so I honestly don't even remember how the week went by;; But food posts can't wait^^ I once had such a good omurice at HEOD in Yeonnam-dong, and now HEOD has opened a branch in Gongdeok?? With all the moving chaos I wanted to eat something good and get even a moment of healing, so I booked HEOD, a Daeheung Station spot, and went :) ![Photo from a visit to HEOD Gongdeok, a brunch spot near Daeheung Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat-01-kzzkz-900.webp) ## Where is HEOD Gongdeok and what are its hours?

Ta-da~~~ My order arrived at this Daeheung Station brunch spot ✨✨ Sitting at the open window seat, it genuinely felt like eating in the middle of nature. ![Brunch set out at the window seat of HEOD Gongdeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat-21-hnf2c-900.webp) With soft sunlight streaming in, the atmosphere was even better, ![Ragu pasta piled high with cheese at HEOD Gongdeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat-22-1tzwr-1200.webp) and the ragu pasta's look and taste were even more impressive 👍🏻 There was so much cheese piled on top of the ragu pasta that there was even a layer of cheese underneath the noodles 🧡 When I twirled the noodles with my fork, the ragu sauce came up thick and clinging between every strand. ![Ragu pasta noodles twirled around a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat-23-rvg6o-900.webp) The tomato ragu sauce, the savory depth of the meat, plus the nutty richness of the cheese~~ It was so good I kept thinking, yep, HEOD really is a Daeheung Station brunch spot worth the name~~ ![A generous plate of ragu pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat-24-1353h-900.webp) Lately I've been to plenty of pasta places where one bowl leaves you wanting more, but HEOD's portion was generous — I felt completely full after just one plate. With plenty of sauce and a hearty amount of noodles, it really felt like a proper brunch meal^^ ## Is HEOD Gongdeok worth a visit? I was so exhausted from moving prep and childcare, but having brunch at HEOD Gongdeok gave me this feeling of catching a little breather for once^^ I really got some proper healing. If you're near Gongdeok or Daeheung Station looking for good food and a pretty space to relax in, stop by HEOD Gongdeok, enjoy a delicious brunch, and take a stroll along the Gyeongui Line Forest Trail 🌿 ## Where it is - HEOD Gongdeok (해옫 공덕) - 24 Gwangseong-ro 6-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, 1st floor, South Korea - 서울특별시 마포구 광성로6길 24 1층 - 37.548798, 126.9387185 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%B4%EC%98%AB%20%EA%B3%B5%EB%8D%95/@37.548798,126.9387185,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@sinchon-back-shelf/heod-gongdeok-ragu-pasta-window-seat/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
