Timing the table
Watch break times on Italian and Chinese spots, and book omakase early. For groups, call ahead to align arrival and seating.
Match the mood
Date nights (Yakitori Marco, Sawolae), family-style sharing (A-Yang, Misicgonggam), business lunches and team dinners (IL FORNO, Ilpyeon Deungsim).
