A friend and I shared a burrata salad, shrimp broth spaghetti, mushroom basil cream risotto, and Korean beef ribeye steak; the spaghetti and steak stood out, though we missed out on a window seat without a reservation. ## Good to know - **Location**: 4th floor, 1189 Huimang-daero, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea; near Songdo Beach - **Burrata cheese salad**: ₩14,000 - **Shrimp broth spaghetti**: ₩16,000 - **Mushroom basil cream risotto**: ₩15,000 - **Korean beef ribeye steak**: 300g, ₩49,000 - **Parking**: The original post noted a nearby public parking lot. - **Seating during visit**: We visited without a reservation and could not get a window seat. *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* It had been a while since I last visited Plan A Restaurant (플랜에이레스토랑) in Pohang’s Songdo area. I had usually come with a larger group before, but this time a friend and I came to eat while looking out at the sea. ![Featured photo from Plan A Restaurant in Pohang Songdo](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-8170/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-01-1guu7-1200.webp) ## Where is Plan A Restaurant in Pohang? It is on the fourth floor of the building at 1189 Huimang-daero, near Songdo Beach. There is a public parking lot nearby, and it is also well located for a beach walk after your meal. ![Plan A Restaurant by the Pohang Songdo waterfront](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-02-egy12-900.webp) ## Can you see the sea without a window seat? As soon as I walked in, the wide expanse of sea off Songdo caught my eye. The interior felt modern yet warm, and the staff were kind. ![Plan A Restaurant interior with an ocean view](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-03-80joq-900.webp) We visited without a reservation, so we could not sit by the window. I had wanted to eat with the sea close by, so that was disappointing. ![Songdo sea view from Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-04-1qytx-900.webp) ![Sea off Songdo beyond Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-05-u3ayr-900.webp) ![Open sea view from Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-06-ahnwt-900.webp) Still, we could see the sea from our side table. The unobstructed view made for a relaxed meal, and I thought it would also be nice for a date or family gathering. ![Sea view from a side table at Plan A](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-07-1jj5m-900.webp) *Sea view from a side table* ## What did we order, and how much was it? Along with pasta, there were salads, steaks, and risotto. They also had wine, coffee, and desserts. We ordered one each of a salad, pasta, risotto, and steak. ![Plan A Restaurant meal menu guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-08-1ndsp-900.webp) ### How was the burrata cheese salad to start? The burrata cheese salad was ₩14,000. It had a generous amount of cheese and was refreshing, making it a good choice before the meal. ### What did I like about the shrimp broth spaghetti? The shrimp broth spaghetti was ₩16,000. The noodles were springy and the sauce had a deep flavor, making it one of the dishes that suited my taste especially well that day. ![Shrimp broth spaghetti ordered at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-09-sqs0t-900.webp) The shrimp were plump and chewy, too. Since it is a pasta with broth, I thought of it as something I might crave when I need a hangover meal. ![Plan A shrimp broth spaghetti shared with a friend](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-10-1tii0-900.webp) ![Shrimp pasta at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-11-1ld3a-900.webp) ### How did the mushroom basil cream risotto taste? The mushroom basil cream risotto was ₩15,000. ![Mushroom basil cream risotto at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-12-1955x-900.webp) It was creamy, with plenty of basil flavor. I usually like basil, so I enjoyed it, and it paired well with alternating bites of the shrimp broth spaghetti. ![Memorable creamy basil risotto](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-13-120cp-900.webp) ![Mushroom basil cream risotto shared with pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-14-tzb7m-900.webp) ### Was the Korean beef ribeye steak satisfying? The Korean beef ribeye steak, which arrived last, was ₩49,000 for 300g. ![Plan A Korean beef ribeye steak served last](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-15-f1xzb-900.webp) I think we chose medium rare. I liked the doneness we chose, and it was a dish I would remember when I wanted steak again. ![Korean beef ribeye steak with a satisfying doneness](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-16-1son5-900.webp) ![Korean beef ribeye steak shared by two friends](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-17-1uzzh-900.webp) ## How did it feel to share four dishes between two? I thought it might be a lot for two people. Still, since we had come out to eat by the sea for the first time in a while, we ordered a variety of dishes we wanted to try. ![Food ordered by two friends at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-18-wlerm-900.webp) ![Plan A meal table with several shared dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-19-16u8g-900.webp) In the past, I had usually come with four or five people, ordering one of several dishes to share. I had enjoyed that experience, so this time I tried a range of dishes from salad to steak as well. ![Meal with salad, pasta, and other dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-20-4rhv2-900.webp) With several plates of food on the table, I did not notice the pickles until later. ![Pickles found during a meal at Plan A Restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-21-1a9qw-900.webp) ![Plan A meal finished with pickles](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-22-1vmvv-900.webp) In the end, we finished everything we ordered. Alternating between the shrimp broth spaghetti and basil risotto, then sharing the steak, let us enjoy several different flavors. ![Meal table after finishing all the ordered food](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-23-1lv9d-900.webp) I was still disappointed not to get a window seat, but I enjoyed the time eating by the sea with my friend. I especially liked the steak, and I would like to come back with my family next time. ![Closing photo from Plan A Restaurant in Pohang Songdo](https://img.superchart.com/images/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-24-uf4xa-900.webp) ## Where it is - Plan A Restaurant (플랜에이레스토랑) (플랜에이레스토랑) - 4th floor, 1189 Huimang-daero, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea (경상북도 포항시 남구 희망대로 1189 4층) - 경상북도 포항시 남구 희망대로 1189 4층 - 36.0354154, 129.3796437 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%8C%EB%9E%9C%EC%97%90%EC%9D%B4%EB%A0%88%EC%8A%A4%ED%86%A0%EB%9E%91/@36.0354154,129.3796437,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@window-seat-meals-2/plana-songdo-ocean-view-pasta-8170/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
