Cool spot. Love the outside seating. Although it was cold and rainy they have heaters going. Have a huge variety of food to choose from. Definitely recommend the Kimchi Bacon Pasta, it was absolutely delicious. Avoid the Yellow House Sampler Platter, it was very lackluster and nit very tasty. Do get the rice balls! Those were actually pretty good and seasoned well. Parking can be very tricky here, busy area. They offer valet parking or you can try your luck at street parking (some have 1hr max paid parking meters)

Yellow House Cafe is one of my favorite spots in K-Town. It's really quiet and cozy and I love the food and drinks here. The kimchi pasta is their specialty dish (not pictured) but I tried their summer special: Chili Shrimp and it was SO yummy!

The food here was absolutely delicious. The outside itself was very unassuming.. but as soon as you enter the seating area it’s a completely different set up. The seating area was really nice and gave patio-like vibes. My favorite dishes would have to be the Kimchi Bacon Pasta, Yellow House House Ddukboki Platter, and the Pineapple Fried Rice. Overall, a pleasant experience and would return to try out other dishes.

We stopped by this cafe after dinner for dessert, my cousin said that this place use to be just a coffeehouse but they have expanded their selection and now serve food, we ordered a ice cream and a tiramisu cake and a couple of cups of coffee. There is valet parking for $3.00 (+ tip). The place was nicely decorated for Christmas lots of places to picture taking and clean Service was was friendly and professional

I tried the kimchi pasta. It was my favorite dish there definitely recommend it. The appetizers plate was ok. Didn’t have anything that kept my attention. Also ordered the Jambalaya which tasted like a soft kind of curry somewhat generic like you purchase at the grocery stores. Wasn’t bad at all just did expect a bit more. The atmosphere is so amazing. The outdoor seating is nice. The decorations and feel was mellow. Although one thing I didn’t like is so many little flies on the seating outside I had to keep swatting.

It was okay. We were seated quickly, but the service was pretty slow. They had the button system but we’d press it and wait 3-4 times before a server came. They were nice though. For drinks we got the sweet potato latte and the banana mocha latte, which were good but not amazing. The Yellow House Sampler had a bunch of appetizers with ketchup, tartar sauce, and sweet and spicy sauce. None of them were fried too crispy and they got cold very quickly, especially since we’re seated outside. We also ordered the Miso Mushroom Pasta without cheese and it was very creamy. The pasta was thick and needed more flavor. There was a lot of wood ear, and a couple shiitake slices. I wish that was more balanced would love to see even more mushroom variety.

Everything was sooo yummy! Especially the kimchi pasta. The shaved ice was good but you can't get better shaved iced near by but it still wasn't horrible.

Come for the vibes not the food. This place has nice insta vibes on a sunny day.lovely cute decor. Tree house feel. Tiny parking lot valet. Or street parking. Always a struggle in ktown. Expensive food that wasn't that good tbh. Tried the udon basic. Pork cutlet comes w veggie mushrom sauce, rice and cabbage salad. Sauce was underwhelming. Its ok but damn 19 dollars? Pasta dishes interesting. Get the combos for 25 and share w a friend. Service was good. Although someone in my group got the wrong order. There is a button to call servers which is helpful. They were attentive and friendly. One bathroom near the inside courtyard. Well stocked but a bit damp inside. Overall. Come for coffee and hangout here for good atmosphere! but i would get food somewhere else.
