I was hunting for an omakase-style place with good atmosphere in Seongsu when I found OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu! You get a course meal with a fire grill performance right in front of you, and I'd been dying to go ever since I saw it on Instagram!! Here's my story of the Season 7 lunch 5-course, from smoky steak to pasta and dessert.
Where is OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu, and how do you park and book?
OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu is on Dullae 15-gil in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. You can park next to the building, and it's bookable only through Naver reservation. It's a little off the busy part of Seongsu, and I actually liked how quiet and calm it felt. Parking next to the building made it easy to come by car too! It's reservation-only, so a Naver reservation is a must ⚠️
Bar seating around an open kitchen, great for fire-gazing
At OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu, a bar table of about 20 seats surrounds the open kitchen in the middle. The first thing that caught my eye as I walked in was that open kitchen! It's fairly large, with room for about 20 people to sit together.
From any seat you can watch the chefs cook up close, and you can stare into the fire, which was a big charm for me 🔥👀
When you enter there are lockers for your coat and belongings! Honestly, though, the ventilation is so good that I don't think your clothes would pick up any smell.
How much is the Season 7 course at OX Live Fire Grill?
The Season 7 lunch at OX Live Fire Grill is ₩67,000 per person, and the weekday discounted lunch is ₩58,000. The menu changes with each season, and Season 7 was on when I visited!
- OX Season 7: ₩119,000
- OX Season 7 room course: ₩169,000
- OX Season 7 lunch: ₩67,000
- OX Season 7 lunch, weekday discount: ₩58,000
(All prices are per person.) Visit on a weekday and you get a discount, so 🐶 good deal!
Glass wine pairing: 2 glasses for ₩28,000
The glass pairing at OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu is ₩28,000 for 2 glasses. The price was so good that I enjoyed it together with the lunch course haha
The Season 7 lunch 5-course lineup
OPENING | Garlic marble: garlic marble soup
The first dish was a garlic marble soup made with confit garlic and potato! A smooth soup topped with crispy croutons, black garlic oil and herbs. The rich, nutty flavor and faint garlic aroma filling my mouth were lovely, and the crunch of the croutons went well with it.
When does the live fire grill show start?
The fire grill show at OX Live Fire Grill happens before the second course begins. The lights in the restaurant dim, the music gets louder, and the full-on live fire grill show kicks off!
SMOKE | Bone & Butter: smoked charcoal butter and Korean beef tartare
Next came daily bread with smoked charcoal butter, and a Korean beef (hanwoo) cow beef tartare. The charcoal butter has a subtle smoky note, and the flavor really came alive with the bread. The hanwoo beef tartare had tender meat with aioli, queso sauce and Reggiano cheese, and the savory umami was really good!
EMBER | Beef & Lamb: hanwoo striploin steak and French-cut lamb rack
Finally, the main I'd been waiting for! A hanwoo cow striploin steak and a French-cut lamb rack came out together. The striploin was juicy yet tender, and the lamb had that rich flavor it's known for.
With a fresh chimichurri sauce and mint jelly, the meat tasted even more varied. Creamy mashed potatoes, mushrooms and seasonal wild greens made it fun to mix and match too.
GOLD | Saffron Vongole: saffron vongole spaghettini
Fourth was a golden saffron vongole spaghettini! It had the refreshing umami of manila and surf clams with the subtle aroma of saffron on top. The thin spaghettini soaked up the clam flavor nicely, and black olive chips added a salty accent.
SWEET | Contrast: espresso and chocolate mousse
The final dessert was espresso and chocolate mousse! Rich chocolate mousse with smooth vanilla ice cream and nutty crunch. The sweetness and bitterness balanced well, so I finished the meal happy.
When should you go to OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu?
I'd recommend OX Live Fire Grill Seongsu for a Seongsu date or a special day when you want a restaurant with good atmosphere. I got to enjoy five courses while watching the cooking happen right in front of me, and each course stood out with its own flavor and composition. The smoky, fire-grilled mains were especially impressive haha
