While looking for a pasta place that's good for a date and easy on the wallet, I came across Omil and decided to check it out. ![Exterior view of Omil in Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-01-eppig-m-966.webp) ## Where is Omil Hyehwa Daehangno, and what are its hours? Omil Hyehwa Daehangno is on the 2nd floor of 35 Daemyeong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea. It's open 11:30–21:15, with a break time from 15:15 to 16:30 and last order at 20:30. There's no parking lot, so you'll need to use a nearby public parking lot. ![Sign for the 2nd-floor entrance of Omil Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-02-1fitc-966.webp) ![Building on Daemyeong-gil where Omil Hyehwa Daehangno is located](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-03-1jb79-966.webp) ## Why we chose Omil among the pasta restaurants in Hyehwa Hyehwa is such a famous hangout and date spot — a holy land for the young, honestly — that most places you walk into are good, which makes it hard to decide where to go. My husband loves pasta and steak, but most pasta restaurants tend to have that hushed, blind-date kind of atmosphere. We wanted somewhere we could talk freely while eating, and Omil was exactly that! ![Seating inside Omil Hyehwa Daehangno](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-04-1rqy9-966.webp) ![View of Omil Hyehwa's comfortable dining hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-05-jk2kv-966.webp) ### Omil's self-service bar: beet pickles and a phone-charging corner At Omil's self-service corner you grab your own water, napkins, and wet wipes, and there were also pickles made with beets. There's a spot next to it where you can charge your phone, so if you're in a pinch for battery, you can charge up right there. ![Omil's self-service bar with water, napkins, and beet pickles](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-06-13d2d-966.webp) ![Phone-charging corner next to the self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-07-1e1kx-966.webp) ## How to order at Omil Hyehwa, and what's on the menu There's a physical menu you can look at in the restaurant, but when we were seated, we found it convenient that you can tap your phone near the edge of the table or scan a tag photo, which pulls up the menu on your phone so you can order right away. Places with kiosks sometimes mean waiting for other people to finish ordering, but ordering easily from your seat with your phone was really nice! > Omil menu near Hyehwa Station ![First page of the Omil Hyehwa Daehangno menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-08-dapg1-966.webp) ![Menu page showing Omil pasta and main dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-09-bvmpj-966.webp) ![Side menu page with soba maki and fried dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-10-r6hnk-966.webp) ![Drink menu page listing signature ades](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-11-7c7dl-966.webp) ![Menu page noting the free ade for a Naver review](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date/hyehwa-daehangno-omeal-pasta-date-12-xjpya-966.webp) Write a Naver review and get one free ade!
