    Reviews With Photos - Gangnam Korean Restaurant

    Noce little place.
    Fred B.

    Nice place with great service. If you have that urge for Korean food this Gangnam can help fill that urge. If you've lived in Korea this is a milder version of Korean food. Favorites were Leek Pancakes, fried shrimp dumplings, and pork kimchi stir fry.

    Gangnam earned my special 100th review :) Delicious upscale Korean food and arguably the #1 Asian in town. We need more Gangnam-style restaurants here: beautiful authentic cuisine, tender care by a capable chef, and a business that caters to its strengths rather than trends. I have had fried glass noodles, seaweed soup, Korean pancakes, bulgogi bibimbap, and they are remarkably consistent of quality and neat presentation. But above all the rest, the Topokki is the winner. These chewy rice cakes and spicy red broth complement each other like no other. Chef warned us it will be spicy, and it indeed was! That is a huge plus that the flavors were true to the chef's whims. One great feature of this fine-dining Korean is the many little crafts of appetizers/sides - little pieces of tofu, chickpeas, spicy mayo, kimchi. Each tidbit gives a distinct flavor combination, so overall it gives a sweeping taste of the expansive Korean cuisine, a preciously rare experience in Oslo. By the time you finish your dinner, you have tasted at least 10 different things. I love how it respects Korean cuisine as its own identity (no sushi/thai here). The only thing I will complain is that the portion are 'rationally' sized :D.. It is priced on the higher end at 270kr which includes several tiny appetizers, a normal-size main and a soup. It has a lot of things, but it's not a hearty meal. I could have ordered more, but had to restrain myself from bloating my dinner bill since it's Vika prices (Gangnam is an upscale neighborhood in Seoul after all). If Gangnam isn't above my daily eat out budget, I'd probably come back here every other day. The chef owner is a polite, soft-spoken Korean man who checks by whether the food is to our liking. You can tell that he cares for what comes out of the kitchen. The restaurant location is a little bit strange, but it actually works for people who commute to Sandvika.

    We'd enjoyed a series of great Nordic-style meals on our trip to Copenhagen and then Oslo. But, on…read moreour last night with our granddaughter in Oslo, we craved a change from all those delicious steamed-in-cream muscles, tasty baked salmon and classic smoresbords. Izakaya fit the bill. In fact, it may have ended up being the best meal of our week-long trip. Yes, as you've read and can see from other Yelpers' photos, it's teeny tiny inside. But, when you get lucky and get seated, it's nice and cozy. You certainly aren't merely one 2-top in a long boring row of tables that's for sure. There's no sign outside but because it has a distinctive look on the exterior (see photos of the heavy grillwork on the windows) you really can't miss it. A Yelper's description of 'Japanese tapas' is right on the mark, tho this is a bit of mixed metaphor. Dishes (especially the last two below) are relatively small. Maybe four dishes will do for two people but you'll likely end up as we three did: wanting a bit more. We started with the Gyoza. Definitely delicious and served piping hot. Next was Bang Bang Ji - shredded chicken, julienned cucumber, and a spicy sauce. Good and a nice prelude to the Mazemen. Our hands-down favorite of the night was the Mazemen, broth-less ramen with a delicious sauce, oil, and toppings. Especially delicious with the egg (poached?) mixed in. Had we immediately ordered another three more bowls of this wonderfully tasty dish I doubt if there'd have been much of an objection! Okonomiyaki - a savory pancake. Good. We didn't want to leave without a bit more. So, we ordered the Senmaizuke, pickled turnip and chili with a sweet, tangy vinegar marinade, and the Shiitake no fukumeni, mushrooms simmered in a sweet and savory broth. Both of these relatively small dishes were quite delicious - but really would have tasted best as early appetizers. The Kirin beer really hit the spot. Service was quick and efficient. Pacing was fine with no rush despite the line that had formed in the little foyer. YELPER HINT: if you're stuck in the line but thirsty, you can go on in and stand at a small (2 ft. wide) open section of the bar and order/pay for beers (not sure about their cocktails) and then re-take your place in line. In short, Izakaya could - and likely will - provide your tastiest, most interesting and perhaps even your most delicious meal in wonderful Oslo.

    It was closed for the summer when I went there in late July to find some dinner. A bit hard to find…read morebut never got a chance to eat there.

This neighborhood is full of awesome restaurants with great ambiance, but I am so happy that we stumbled upon Monsun. The restaurant was busy, but warm and friendly. Well-decorated in a modern, but cozy way, we felt right at home. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, as well. Everything we had to eat was great. We started with some spring rolls and a pork bun, which were both very good (especially the pork bun, which had a phenomenal flavor). For the entree, I got char siu pork noodles and I seriously can't rave enough. At many restaurants, char siu can be try or overcooked, but it was absolutely perfect at Monsun. I would totally suggest visiting if you get the chance!

Could have been more attentive, but it was pretty ok. I went for some small dishes. Duck and a bun of sorta. Food was just ok and I felt the spring roll lacked a flavour... I am pretty sure I would have been more happy trying some of their other dishes...and they could maybe work on the plating a little. But thats details ofc. I will for sure go back another time and try something else. Price is ok.
