Fig gorgonzola pizza with friends at a Pangyo restaurant: Tobeu Nain

I'm a mom who loves going on food tours. Today my friends and I met up for lunch at Tobeu Nain Pangyo Main Branch, a brunch and dessert favorite in Pangyo.

Where is Tobeu Nain Pangyo Main Branch, and what are the hours and parking?

Tobeu Nain Pangyo Main Branch is at 56 Sasong-ro, Sujeong-gu, Seongnam, Gyeonggi (1st and 2nd floors). It's open daily from 10:30 to 21:00, with a break from 15:00 to 17:00. Parking, groups, takeout and baby high chairs are all available.

Among Pangyo's brunch and dessert spots, this one wins people over with its social-media-worthy vibe, so we came for brunch. We could park comfortably right in front, which was so convenient, and the restaurant is a standalone 2-story building that feels spacious and relaxed.

What are the seats and group tables like?

On the 1st floor there's an area for ordering and an area where the food comes out, with window-view seats as the base and tables that can easily fit groups of 6 or 10 or more. So there were lots of people, from office workers nearby to big group gatherings.

We had reserved, so we went up to the 2nd floor and were shown to our reserved seats!

They guided us to a table with a wide-open view of the road outside, which I loved, and it was such a comfortable seat for three of us to eat and enjoy ourselves. Each table had the utensils neatly set out. Such a nice Pangyo brunch and dessert spot!

What's on the menu, and how do the sets work?

The main menu is varied, with pasta, pizza, steak, risotto, soufflé and more, and the set menus (salad + pasta + pizza + drink) are priced as great value. Every table has an order pad for quick, easy ordering, so we went straight to browsing the menu.

Here's what we picked for our set.

• Ricotta cheese salad
• Spicy rosé pasta
• Fig gorgonzola pizza
• Drinks (Americano + latte)

While we were chatting after ordering, the Americano and a hot latte came out, and the latte even had pretty latte art. It looked so delicious!

How is the ricotta cheese salad?

The ricotta cheese salad in the set came topped with assorted fresh fruit, keeping everything wonderfully fresh. It looked so appetizing and pretty~~♡ The ricotta is mild yet a little sweet and thick, and it was so delicious!!

Putting the ricotta and vegetables on the bread that comes with it was amazingly good too, and the house-made ricotta honestly tasted so luxurious and elegant!!

How are the fig gorgonzola wood-fired pizza and the spicy rosé pasta?

Right after the ricotta salad, the fig gorgonzola pizza topped with fig jam and the spicy rosé pasta came out together. The spicy rosé pasta has wide noodles that everyone loved, and we really enjoyed it at this Pangyo brunch and dessert spot.

Tobeu Nain Pangyo is also well known for its wood-fired pizza, so pizza seems like a must-order!! There are so many kinds that I wanted to try one of each, but the fig gorgonzola pizza was mild, soft and chewy!! The mildness and nuttiness of the cheese balanced nicely, and I loved topping it with fig jam for a sweet bite!!

The spicy rosé pasta with meatballs had just the right amount of heat, and the meatballs were mild with a soft, tender meat texture, so I enjoyed it so much and was very satisfied 👏👏

How was Tobeu Nain Pangyo Main Branch as a spot for meeting friends?

Eating happily and chatting with my friends at Tobeu Nain Pangyo Main Branch, we didn't even notice three or four hours going by. The atmosphere was so relaxing, and I was really satisfied with this Pangyo brunch.
