Pasta Studio Jeju - Seogwipo

Small, Italian restaurant. The owner verified with me that I am vegan versus vegetarian. He asked if I would rather an oil or tomato based dish. I opted for oil and he made a delicious dish of pasta, broccoli rabe, tomatoes, garlic and peppers. It's been the best meal I've had on Jeju so far!

This is a small restaurant with around 5 tables. The owner is very kind and speaks English well. There are two vegan entree choices: pasta with tomato sauce and vegetables, or pasta with an oil sauce and vegetables. Though I am not a huge oil fan, I did prefer that one due to the zing from all the garlic and red pepper flakes. There are two side options: fries or a lovely green salad. I ate here during kumquat season and the kumquats he added to the salad were divine. The price for the salad was reduced from the normal price with meat which was very thoughtful. There are more options for vegetarians.

I got a pasta to go, one the owner recommended and made vegetarian, and it was delicious! He was very friendly and I had a beer while I waited.

Amazing quality food with effortless veggie options in an overall veggie desert. I thought i was dreaming! Very tasty, pasta al dente, spices excellently used. Perfect! So glad to have found this.

The owner speaks great English and can explain that there are two pasta options he can make vegan. I ate here for lunch one day and for dinner the next day so I tried both and they were really nice! It’s a small place and in a really good location in the touristy area of seogwipo. Note that the opening hours have changed they now open Tuesday Saturday and close Sunday and Monday.
