VINHO

"Co-helmed by Chef Jeon Seong-bin and Sommelier Kim Jin-ho, Vinho features expansive window walls and an open kitchen fronted by an elongated counter. This spatial harmony creates a lively communal wine-and-dine ambiance. The vast wine list, coupled with careful service and food pairing, as well as deep-flavored sauces that exquisitely complement seasonal ingredients, makes the eatery a perfect venue to savor the pinnacle of contemporary cuisine. Its yellowtail tartare, which features dices of yellowtail mixed with sourdough crumbs and poached eggs and then wrapped with slightly grilled romaine, is served with a sauce featuring katsuobushi cream, parsley oil and lemon juice. The sweet and nutty flavor of the sauce provides the ideal accompaniment to the yellowtail’s fresh flavors. Vinho delights in showcasing how wine can heighten the allure of fine cuisine." - Michelin Inspector

I chose this place to celebrate my birthday, and seeing “Happy Birthday” printed on the menu was a really thoughtful touch. The 9-course tasting menu was excellent from start to finish, with creative and well-executed dishes — from the oyster-inspired granita and Arctic surf clam with soy milk citrus sauce, to smoked eggplant stuffed with shrimp, perfectly cooked quail, and a beautifully medium-rare Korean beef sirloin with two well-matched sauces. Desserts were well balanced, ending with a refreshing lavender sorbet and a basil crème brûlée. Seasoning and presentation were spot on, though portions were on the delicate side. The 8-glass wine pairing was fun (and generous!), and the owner was incredibly friendly, explaining each dish and wine and even singing happy birthday, which made the whole experience warm and memorable.

Compared to a Michelin star restaurant in SF, I would say this restaurant is like a 3.5/5 star. But hey, what do I know? Regarding consistency in the service, rather than providing consistent service throughout to their customers, it seemed like a local hangout spot where they take care of their locals. I totally get their business model of having to be taken care of their own, but it was a lackluster experience for us as travelers who wanted the good food + service. They have issues with their plumbing, being located in an old building. But just the casual conversations that they were having with their regulars about plumbing was not a really cherry on top of my culinary experience 🤢 Small details are everything. We added the Krut and kalbi bap add-ons. One was missed, but they were nice about it and offered a dessert wine as compensation. All in all, I think experience was overall flat and a mismatch. The food was great quality and excellent. The wine, you can see they are trying to cut corners. Definitely not worth the premium $$$$ they are putting on to match their premium food. You need a balance. Either bring the food quality down, or match the wine experience. One liner synop: the value is not there yet.

We had a fantastic meal at Vinho. Each dish was delicious, but I think the Abalone with Butternut Squash was my favorite. We also did the wine pairing, which was a fun and informative experience. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to

We had an amazing experience at Vinho Seoul! The staff made us feel very welcome and highly professional. The food was superb, European and Korean savoir fair! Our highlight was the Oyster Ice Cream:) The only improvement I would ask for is warmer lighting for a cozier experience as the white/blue light is a bit steril…

This is hands down our best meal during our 2 week trip to Seoul-Busan-Jeju summer of 2024. Michelin guide mentioned it's a great place for a date night, boy they're quite accurate. Flock to this restaurant before it gets its 2nd or 3rd star, it's a matter of time. Jin-Ho, the somm, is friendly and very helpful in explaining each dish and the wine pairing. It's awesome to see Chef Jeong in action in their open kitchen from the bar counter. Each dish is innovative, pushing the envelope of flavors and artistic expression, fun and edgy in a way. I will definitely return to this spot when I'm in town.

Excellent all the way around: friendly and excellent service, excellent plates of food that keeps on getting better, and a great atmosphere. All of the food was inventive and had a great balance of texture, flavor, and inventiveness. Much better than a lot of 2 Michelin star restaurants we have been to. I would highly recommend before they get their 2 star and become too booked.

Excellent food and atmosphere. Drinks were out of our budget, would have loved to tried and paired with the delicious tasting menu. Will come back again next time we are in Korea. Favourite dish is the Mackerel (surprisingly since I'm not a huge fan of Mackerel).

It didn’t take long to understand why this place has such a high rating. It’s a beautiful venue and I really love the welcome chorus as you walk in ☺️ The wine list is huge and there’s an incredible number of non-alcoholic options. The owner who was hosting everyone that night is absolutely wonderful. So welcoming and friendly and knowledgeable. And it was a delight to watch the kitchen operating directly in front of me, and to watch the synchronised serving and clearing of plates around me. The flavour combinations of the menu were incredible! Oyster and champagne ice cream, soy sauce ice cream and creme brûlée - absolutely amazing. Perfect number of servings and portion sizes. I envy the people who live in the neighbourhood and can just pop down for a late night luxury feed. I hope to return when I am back in Seoul in a few months.
