My date and I were there towards the Christmas time, exhausted after an entire day's of shopping and needing a desperate respite over a nice cocktail. We ordered Carpe Diem and a Daiquiri to get started, each costing approx. $24 and $27, respectively. Both drinks were extremely anemic in alcohol and small in size for the price they were charging. The atmosphere was relaxing except for some loud locals with drinking beyond their limits. A live band played during the night which was nice but uninspiring. The view overlooks the Dongdaemun shopping area from its 11th floor limited windows. If you just want to come and relax it's an average establishment at best. But we were disappointed as we had higher expectations based on its review rating, and expensive but less than satisfactory cocktails. As an international bar, if they want to aspire to a higher standard than they need to create and maintain a special character to distinguish itself from other local scenes.Dear Jeremy J.Warm greetings from the Griffin.Thank you for visiting us and sharing your valuable comment with us.We shared your comment with the team. And we are trying to make the best cocktails which have a great qualities.We will provide inspiring service and cocktails in the near future.We are looking forward to welcoming you back soon.Thank you very much.Best regards,Elly Jin.

I was in the area to catch up with a friend and we decide to try the bar in WXYZ. Thanks to Mr. Ippei at the bar, his drink suggestions turned out to be great. The food was good too. The pizza we ordered was quite delicious. Would definitely recommend WXYZ if you are around...

What's not to like? Wide range of craft beer accompanied by various pizzas and fried or marinated chicken. All cooked fresh, generous servings and great fun. Thoroughly enjoyable night as staff did a swell job in juggling everybody.Thanks for the vote if you found this review helpful.

Cafe Gondry

Reviewed By bnorra

This is a great place to relax after taking in the sites of the historic Samcheong-dong/Bukchon Hanok Village area. With a range of local craft beers on offer, a selection of freshly prepared snacks and streamed New York jazz radio, Cafe Gondry is perfectly positioned for a break from the tourist trail. There is also information available on film festivals and special showings.

Nekkid Wings

Nekkid Wings is a restaurant specializing in crispy wings and 13 house-made sauces. After starting in the area of Itaewon on April 7th 2017, it is now operated by the Nekkid Crew Co., Ltd.

Reviewed By Y4716UElynnc

This place is great. Back in an alley of Itaewon, Nekkid Wings is small and seems to always have a wait. To get a table, you put your cell number in and they text you when it’s ready. As for the food, I got soy wings and honey butter wings. I wish I had gotten all soy! Sooo good. As I said, I don’t even like wings but a friend was there so I joined her. The wings had a lot of meat on them and were delicious. I thought the honey butter wings were too sweet but decent. You can also get ranch or blue cheese for the wings and a side of carrots and celery. All in all, a great meal. I would definitely go back!
