Mott 32 Seoul

Mott 32 is an exceptional dining establishment that perfectly blends traditional Chinese culinary artistry with a modern, upscale ambiance. From the moment you step inside, you’re captivated by the stunning interiors. The decoration is a seamless mix of contemporary design elements with nods to Chinese heritage, creating a luxurious yet welcoming atmosphere that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The service at Mott 32 is equally impressive. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly committed to ensuring that every guest enjoys their meal to the fullest. They guide you through the extensive menu with ease, offering helpful recommendations and insights into the dishes. Speaking of the menu, Mott 32 offers a vast selection of Chinese dishes, each prepared with precision and high-quality ingredients. Whether you’re in the mood for traditional favorites or something more adventurous, there’s something here for everyone. The cocktails are another highlight—specially crafted to complement the cuisine, they’re as visually stunning as they are delicious. While Mott 32 is on the pricier side, the quality of the food and the overall experience make it well worth it. Every dish is a testament to the skill and creativity of the chefs, making it a worthwhile splurge for special occasions or when you simply want to treat yourself. Overall, Mott 32 is highly recommended for anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. I would gladly visit again.

The duck is said to be portioned for 3-4 people, but after the carving, the staff discard most of it without disclosure or consent, mentioning the quarter sections have a smell (?). Not sure what this meant, and also not a common practice in many similar or better experiences. In short, the portion is small.The other dishes are extremely generic for the price and quality. The manager is polite and helpful, but does not make up for the experience as a whole. Money, time, and expectations can be spent elsewhere.

Mott 32 is located next to JW Marriott Seoul, so it is recommendable for hotel guests who want to have Chinese dishes. (Manho, the Chinese Restaurant in the hotel does not exist any longer) The restaurant specializes in Cantonese Cuisine and the name is after the address (32 Mott Street) of the first CVS in New York in year 1891. It is being managed by Josun Hotel. The ambience is exotic in Hong Kong style. The most beloved menu is the Peking Duck (160K) which available upon pre-order only. It is, not greasy but light, very delectable and the extra order for the Stir-fried meat with lettuce (21K) or fried rice (21K) is also recommended. The signature course menu is Hong Kong and Seoul course (each at 190K KRW for 2 person) * Signature Hong Kong - Soft Quail Egg, Pork, Black Truffle Siu Mai - Hot & Sour Shanghainese Soup Dumplings, Scallop, Prawn - Prawn Cheng Fan, Crispy Rice Paper, Vegetable - King Prawns, Chinese Rice Win, Vinegar Chili - Alaskan King Crab Casserole, Crab Roe, Vermicelli: It is too bland - Seafood Black Truffle Fried Rice * Signature Seoul - Marinated Jellyfish, Celtuce, Aged Balsamic Vinegar - Cold Free-Range Chicken, Szechan Peppercomes, Chili Sauce - Black Truffle, Braised Sea Cucumber, Shrimp, Beef and Mushrooms - Sauteed String Beans, Diced Beef - Spicy Noodle Soup with Vegetables and Seafood If one signature menu should be selected, I prefer the Signature Seoul, because Vermicelli from signature Hong Kong is not upto my expectation (too bland for me) - but Dimsum is wonderful from the course. As far as the Peking Duck is the must-eat dish, signature menu could be too heavy. In that case, I would recommend Peking Duck with extra Stir-fried meat with lettuce, and some dishes from A La Carte like Dimsum, Cold Free-Range Chicken (Szechan Peppercomes, Chili Sauce) and Seafood Black Truffle Fried Rice. (Vermicelli and/or Spicy Noodle Soup are not recommended - not up to expectation. Other dishes are tasty) Staffs are very professional and attentive. Price are moderate but I wish there be a membership or credit card for discount. (Club Josun and Marriott Bonvoy are not applied) Corkage seems to be high at 100K per bottle (but the hose drinks are not so expensive). There is a separate/private parking lot that is not crowded.

Beijing duck was very well done, and crispy. Ambiencec was also great. This is from Hong Kong Michelle 1 star restaurant.

Ordered peking duck with lettuce wrap, honey glazed iberico pork and some dim sum. All dishes were great, highly recommended

Incredible Dimsum at the new Mott 32 restaurant. Everything was top notch and so delicious. Service was very polite and great!

You can now enjoy mott32 in Seoul All the foods I had were great as well as Beijing duck But one thing I felt bad was location Really hard to find the place

Good atmosphere. Food is normal compared to its price
