Inside Low Five Anguk: the atmosphere

The first things I noticed when I walked in were the wide, horizontally stretched space and the pretty windows. The natural light coming through made the room feel even warmer.

In a word: a killer atmosphere! From the sunny window seats to the inner seats under soft lighting, the whole place felt cozy. It's great for a relaxed meal with a friend or time with family, and it works even when it's not a special occasion, just a good meal out.

I hear Low Five wasn't always the restaurant it is today.

It started as a small brunch spot serving simple but heartfelt dishes like sandwiches and pasta, and added the foods they love one by one until it settled into the casual restaurant it is now.

You can feel the idea of a place where food tastes better together in the atmosphere. It makes the time you spend there comfortable, not just the food.

Three dishes we ordered at Low Five Anguk after the run

I ordered three dishes at Low Five Anguk that day: the Classic Caesar Salad, Hot Pepperoni Pizza and Classic Lasagna! Besides meals, they also have coffee, soft drinks and ades, so you can pair a drink to your taste.

Classic Caesar Salad

I tried the Classic Caesar Salad first.

The fresh romaine spread crisply in my mouth, and the crunchy croutons added texture. With the salty cheese and nutty dressing, it finished clean.

It's a perfect starter before rich dishes like pizza and lasagna. If you like fresh, light salads, order one alongside.

Hot Pepperoni Pizza: how was the crust?

The star of the day, the Hot Pepperoni Pizza!

Spicy pepperoni spread salty through my mouth, and the nutty cheese made it rich. What I liked most was the crust texture. The center was thin and slightly crisp, so it didn't feel heavy, and I could taste the pepperoni and cheese well.

With that spicy, salty, nutty combination, after one slice my hand naturally reached for the next. It wasn't a pizza with only strong flavors; the crust and toppings felt balanced. If you're searching for pizza near Anguk Station and wondering what to eat, I'd recommend the Hot Pepperoni Pizza. Pizza lovers should be happy with it.

Classic Lasagna

The last dish is the Classic Lasagna.

It's layered with soft cheese and rich tomato sauce, and from the first bite a warm, hearty flavor filled my mouth. The layers blended gently, so I could taste the nuttiness of the cheese and the richness of the tomato sauce at once.

The texture of the gently melting cheese was especially good. If the Hot Pepperoni Pizza's charm was spicy and salty, the Classic Lasagna's was warm, deep flavor. The two tasted so different that I was glad I ordered both. If pizza alone feels like not enough, order the lasagna too!

Ginkgo walk by the Constitutional Court after lunch

After a lovely meal at Low Five Anguk, I stepped outside and another treat was waiting. The ginkgo trees in front of the Constitutional Court and around Anguk Station had turned beautifully. Yellow ginkgo leaves swayed in the wind and fell one by one, and it was gorgeous.

The warm, relaxed feel of autumn was everywhere, and just walking put me in a good mood. Delicious pizza and pretty autumn leaves, could there be a better course? I hope you'll visit before all the ginkgo leaves fall. I'd also recommend eating at Low Five Anguk, walking around the Constitutional Court, and then continuing to Bukchon Hanok Village.
