Over one meal with a friend, Rangteu Yeonnam served Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi (18,900 won), Beef Brisket Melchovy Pasta (18,900 won) and Chili Peanut Menbosha (9,000 won), and the Beef Brisket Melchovy Pasta was the No. 1 pick for both of them. With wine by the glass and bottles at 30,000–40,000 won, Rangteu Yeonnam is an easy recommendation for a date or first meeting in Yeonnam-dong. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1.5F, 22-30 Yanghwa-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul - **Hours**: Daily 11:30–21:30 (last order 20:30) - **Parking**: Not available - **Getting there**: 3-minute walk from Exit 3, Hongik University Station - **Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi**: 18,900 won - **Beef Brisket Melchovy Pasta**: 18,900 won - **Chili Peanut Menbosha**: 9,000 won - **Wine**: Wine by the glass; bottles 30,000–40,000 won - **Price reference**: ₩18,900 ≈ $14 · ₩9,000 ≈ $6.7 · ₩30,000 ≈ $22.5 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* A resort-like space found in Yeonnam-dong — Rangteu. ![Entrance view of Rangteu Yeonnam, a pasta restaurant in Yeonnam-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-01-1puak-900.webp) Today I visited Rangteu, a pasta restaurant in Yeonnam-dong. It's a place where you can try unique dishes that combine European cooking techniques with Korean seasonal ingredients, and with its sophisticated resort-style concept, I'd recommend it as a date or blind date spot too. Here's my review of this not-so-typical Yeonnam-dong pasta restaurant, let's go! ## Where is Rangteu Yeonnam, and what are its hours? ![Rangteu Yeonnam storefront and business information](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-02-1cwxk-900.webp) - 📍 22-30 Yanghwa-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1.5F - ⏰ Daily 11:30–21:30 (last order 20:30) - 🚗 No parking available - Getting there: 3-minute walk from Exit 3, Hongik University Station ## Inside Rangteu Yeonnam: a resort mood in the middle of Seoul ![Interior of Rangteu Yeonnam filled with sunlight](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-03-14wgt-900.webp) ![White-toned interior of Rangteu Yeonnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-04-h21o1-900.webp) The moment I stepped into Rangteu, the modern, clean feel and the sunlight pouring in gave me a comfortable escape from the chaos of Yeonnam-dong. The space is genuinely pleasant and stylish, so it's no surprise I saw a lot of couples there on dates. ![Seating at Rangteu Yeonnam surrounded by plant decor](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-05-rddv2-900.webp) There are a lot of restaurants in Yeonnam-dong with tables packed close together where it's hard to actually enjoy your time and space, but Rangteu's clean white-toned interior paired with tasteful plant decor gave off a relaxed, resort-like feeling. ![Spacious inner seating area at Rangteu Yeonnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-06-1konj-900.webp) The space is split into an outdoor and an indoor section, and the tables are spaced pretty generously, which made for a good setup for conversation. It's an atmosphere that lets you focus on talking to each other, so I'd really recommend it to anyone looking for a Yeonnam-dong date or blind date spot! ## Rangteu Yeonnam menu and prices: how much is the wine? ![Table spread of fusion pasta dishes at Rangteu Yeonnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-07-q6cjn-1200.webp) What we ordered that day was the Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi for ₩18,900, the Beef Brisket Anchovy Pasta for ₩18,900, and the Chili Peanut Menbosha for ₩9,000. Rangteu is a place where you can taste creative dishes that combine European cooking methods with Korean seasonal ingredients — the creative mix of East and West produces unique menu items you can only find at this Yeonnam-dong pasta restaurant. ![Glass of wine and food at Rangteu Yeonnam](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-08-1dj55-900.webp) One of the things I liked about Rangteu Yeonnam is that they sell wine by the glass, and bottles are also reasonably priced in the ₩30,000-40,000 range, so if you're looking for a wine bar in Yeonnam-dong, I'd recommend coming here for both good wine and good food. ![A plate of Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-09-s9w8l-900.webp) ![Close-up of the creamy gochujang cream gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-10-1wecn-900.webp) ### Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi, 18,900 won The dish I was most looking forward to was the Monterey Gochujang Cream Gnocchi. The subtle spiciness of the gochujang (fermented red chili paste) cut through what could have been an overly rich gnocchi, and the creamy gnocchi paired really well with the gochujang. ![A plate of Beef Brisket Anchovy Pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-11-9uhrk-900.webp) ### Beef Brisket Melchovy Pasta, 18,900 won — the No. 1 pick for both of us My friend and I both agreed our number one was the Beef Brisket Anchovy Pasta. Honestly, I had no idea what to expect just from the name, but the umami of the fermented anchovy cream and the grilled beef brisket blended together so well. It was a surprise winner. If you come to Rangteu, you have to try this one! It really shows off what a great Yeonnam-dong pasta restaurant this is. ![Side dish of Chili Peanut Menbosha](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-12-lcfd5-900.webp) ![Peanut Menbosha served with chili sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha-13-hejef-900.webp) ### Chili Peanut Menbosha (fried shrimp toast), 9,000 won The side dish we ordered, the Chili Peanut Menbosha, was also nicely unusual. Menbosha (deep-fried shrimp toast) has become a fairly common menu item these days, but Rangteu adds a nutty peanut kick that works great with the tangy chili flavor. All three dishes were unique, not the kind of thing you'd find at an ordinary Western restaurant, so I was very satisfied. Next time I want to try the yuja spring greens pasta!! ## Is Rangteu Yeonnam worth a visit? Final verdict Rangteu checked every box, both for the food and for the space itself. I came with a friend this time, but next I want to come back in the evening to enjoy the space with a glass of wine. Discovering a new pasta restaurant in Yeonnam-dong felt like a great find, and if you're looking for a spot for a date, blind date, or gathering in Yeonnam-dong, this place is definitely worth a visit. ## Where it is - Rangteu Yeonnam (랑트 연남) - 22-30 Yanghwa-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1.5F - 서울특별시 마포구 양화로19길 22-30 1.5층 - 37.5590003, 126.9247157 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%9E%91%ED%8A%B8%20%EC%97%B0%EB%82%A8/@37.5590003,126.9247157,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@weeknight-table/langt-yeonnam-gochujang-gnocchi-menbosha/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
