The Taco Booth YeouidoTacos Over a Burger on a No-Appetite Day

It's a franchise, so there are several branches

The Taco Booth is a franchise with branches beyond Yeouido. It's even been featured on the TV show "Life's Masters" (생활의 달인) as one of Seoul's four great taco spots — worth keeping in mind that the vibe and the wait can vary branch to branch.

Tacos, poke bowls, burritos — and sets for 2 or 3

The menu runs on tacos, poke bowls, and burritos. Good for a light solo meal, but there are also set menus built for two or three people to share.

Fresh ingredients, and a lunchtime beer makes it better

The ingredients are fresh and the food is solid here. Pair it with a beer at lunch and it's about as good as it gets.

What it looks like

Two tacos sit on a metal tray, each on a pinkish tortilla topped with cilantro, tomato, onion and seasoned meat. In the square bowl on the right are grilled green beans, finely crumbled seasoned meat and diced tomato. On the left is a beer mug printed with a Jose Cuervo logo, and the "THE TACO BOOTH" logo shows large on the paper plates and the tabletop.

Tacos over a burger when you've got no appetite

Personally, on a day I have no appetite, I'd reach for tacos over a burger. There's a generous pile of vegetables on top, so it eats light instead of sitting heavy.

Right outside Yeouido Station Exit 6

It's on the first floor of the Eyelex building, visible as soon as you step out of Yeouido Station's Exit 6. There's outdoor seating too, good for a nice-weather evening, and there's usually a wait at both lunch and dinner. Parking in the Eyelex building's rear 1F lot gets you 30 minutes free at lunch, 1 hour free at dinner.

For foreign visitors

• A taco is a tortilla topped with meat, vegetables, and salsa; a quesadilla is a tortilla grilled with cheese and fillings folded inside; a burrito is a tortilla wrapped around the fillings
• There's a mildly spicy kick from the salsa and sauces, but overall it's not very hot (1 out of 5)
• Forks are provided, so use a fork and knife if eating with your hands isn't comfortable

Who this is for
