Ikseon-dong restaurant
살롱순라 or in English Salon Sunna is one of the famous restaurants in Seoul, located at Ikseon-dong district around Guanghamun Gate, Invading. This restaurant is famous for its menu that has delicious Italian food like spaghetti and wine. Mostly people who visit this restaurant are girls with friends or coupes. So, I with my girl friends decided to spend nice evening of last summer days at this restaurant and enjoy some red wine.

How to get there
Salon Sunna a is located at the Jongno-gu district and is easy to find. The most direct subway station is Jongno 3 ( Seoul Subway Line 3) with the exit 7.
Also you can use three other subway stations that are close to the restaurant.
- Line 5 – Jongno 3 Station, Exit 7
- Line 1 – Jongno 3 Station, Exit 7
- Line 3 – Anguk Station, Exit 4
By bus:
- Get off at Jongno 1.2.3.4 가동주민센터 Bus Stop – Green Bus: 3214, 3220, 3319, 3412
- Get off at 조계사 Bus Stop – Green Bus: 1020 , Blue Bus: 151. 172, 606,162
- Get off at 창덕궁, 서울돈화문악당 Bus Stop – Green Bus: 7025, Blue Bus: 109,151,710,162,171,172,272
However, I used bus to get there because this cafe is closer to the bus station 창덕궁, 서울돈화문악당. If you live in the northern part of Seoul like me then better to take these buses. From the bus station 창덕궁, 서울돈화문악당 it takes only 8-9 min of walking to the Salon Sunna.
Delicious food
This restaurant has very beautiful interior that gives special atmosphere. Menu is not very expensive. We ordered spaghetti for 12.000KRW and one bottle of red wine which costed 40.000KRW. After that we ordered famous wine juice with roses and cherries inside. It was worth of spending money and having good time there.
Tip
Since it is famous restaurant, there are always line of people waiting for their turn to get inside. Because restaurant is not very big and has fewer tables, it is better to call and book a table for dinner.
