Euljiro gimbap restaurant with keto rolls: 29 Tamago

My friend and I were in Euljiro and started looking for somewhere to have lunch. We wanted somewhere delicious but healthy, and that led us to 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch. From keto gimbap (seaweed rice rolls) to Vietnamese spring rolls, there were lots of light meal options, and after trying them myself, I was happy with the taste too—so let me introduce it as an Euljiro lunch spot✨

Close to Euljiro 3-ga Station and parking

29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is about a three-minute walk from Euljiro 3-ga Station, so it was easy to get there by subway. Euljiro has lots of alleyways, so it can be easy to get turned around when visiting for the first time, but being close to the station made it very accessible.

There is no parking at the restaurant, though. If you are driving, the nearby Euljiro 3-ga street public parking lot is a more convenient option.

When we arrived, there was a cute waiting area by the entrance. I imagine plenty of nearby office workers stop by at Euljiro lunchtime, so this little space looked surprisingly useful. It suited the clean atmosphere of the restaurant too, and I was already looking forward to going in✨

A bar table and full-height windows

Inside, it was clean overall, with that hip Euljiro feel.

There was also a bar table on one side, so it looked like a comfortable place for solo lunch in Euljiro. Best of all, the lush green view through the wide windows was so pretty💚

It was bright and comfortable rather than closed-in, making it a space I really liked for chatting with a friend over a meal.

From keto gimbap to Vietnamese spring rolls

The main menu at 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is keto gimbap and Vietnamese spring rolls. I usually love gimbap, but this looked particularly appealing for anyone wanting something lighter and healthier. It seems like a great fit for people looking for good gimbap in Euljiro but wanting something a little different from an ordinary roll. With spring rolls and fresh-pressed juice too, it was a lineup that could make a meal filling without feeling too heavy.

That day, we ordered keto tuna gimbap, Vietnamese spring rolls, apple-carrot soup tteokbokki, and apple-carrot fresh-pressed juice. We had only meant to have gimbap simply, but as we looked through the menu, we got curious about one thing after another and ended up ordering more generously than expected haha. I thought there would be only healthy dishes, but being able to enjoy tteokbokki too made the combination especially appealing.

The food was cooked to order and served right away.

The soft texture of keto tuna gimbap

First up, the keto tuna gimbap was generously filled with egg and carrot instead of rice, so it had a soft texture in every bite.

The savory flavor of the tuna came through nicely, and all the fillings worked together to make it satisfying, so I did not miss the rice at all.

Sometimes regular gimbap can feel a little heavy afterward, but this keto gimbap was nice because it felt comparatively light while still keeping me full✨

Vietnamese spring rolls with apple-carrot tteokbokki

The Vietnamese spring rolls felt fresh from start to finish thanks to the crisp vegetables.

All the different ingredients came together at once, giving every bite varied textures, and the sauce brought out the flavor so well that I kept reaching for more.

The apple-carrot soup tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes in sauce) was a dish that had intrigued me from the name alone.

The chewy rice cakes went so well with the sauce, and eating them between bites of gimbap or spring rolls made the meal combination more fun. Having the keto tuna gimbap alongside the tteokbokki worked surprisingly well too—it felt like a little special treat💛

Apple-carrot fresh-pressed juice with the meal

The apple-carrot fresh-pressed juice was great alongside the meal. Enjoying apple and carrot together gave the finish a refreshing feel, and it naturally matched the whole spread.

If you are looking for an Euljiro lunch spot where you can have both flavor and a health-conscious meal, this is worth a visit. Having all four dishes together let us enjoy different flavors and textures, making for an even more satisfying lunch✨

We visited while looking for healthy options, and I loved that the menu was more varied than expected. From keto gimbap and spring rolls to tteokbokki and fresh-pressed juice, having everything together made for a very filling meal✨ If you are looking for a light, healthy lunch in Euljiro, I think this is a place that will come to mind.
