Cleo - Yongsan District, Seoul

Mondrian Hotelの中にあるレストラン。地中海料理ということでしたが、イタリアンのフェットゥチーネやヤリイカのフリットやギリシャ料理のムスカ等。。。を頂きました。何と言うパンか分かりませんがパンがとても美味しかったです。静かにお食事したい時にはお勧めです。カフェもホテル内にあって便利です～

We had a fantastic dining experience at Cleo in Seoul! The food was absolutely delicious – especially the saffron rice, which was incredibly fragrant and flavorful, one of the best I’ve had. The mezze selection and grilled dishes were also excellent. They offer great vegetarian options, which is a big plus and makes this a great choice for any group.

The atmosphere is cozy, stylish, and comfortable, perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends or a casual date night. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall dining experience felt warm and welcoming.

Highly recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for delicious Mediterranean/Middle Eastern flavors in Seoul. I will definitely come back!

There is little bit far from Itaewon station about 15-20min. by walk.
Newly built and modern building.
Clean facilities and nice-kind staffs.
Frankly speaking, I don't prefer it to Korean food.
Special experience and not bad, just try once.

This restaurant is a gem in Itaewon where there are plenty of mediterraneen food, but here the place is more elegant and the price is not too pricey. We took the burrata salad and the fattoush salad. Tuna tartar and beef and chicken kebab were amazing. The truffle pide is a must take crispy on the edges and soft in the center infused with truffle. For the dessert the basilic granita is light and palate-cleansing and the Pavlova was spectacular too.
The service was attentive and thoughtful, thanks to Joyce

The atmosphere is vibrant yet relaxed and the food consistently excellent. A must-visit for anyone looking for a sophisticated yet soulful meal in Seoul.

Ordered the shrimp pizza for room service and it was really tasty and well presented ! I only wish it were bigger as I found the portions at bit too small especially for the price. The pizza was still very good and I enjoyed it

Cleo, the Mediterranean Turkish restaurant at the Mondrian Hotel in Seoul, boasts an inviting ambiance with its stylish interior design. The service is commendable, with attentive and friendly staff who enhance the dining experience. The menu offers a wide selection of dishes that appear appetizing and promising at first glance.

However, the actual taste of the dishes left much to be desired. The Mezze lacked the vibrant flavors typical of Mediterranean cuisine, and the bread served was disappointingly insubstantial. Neither the kebabs nor the hot starters met expectations, falling short in terms of both taste and authenticity.

While the atmosphere and service provide a pleasant dining environment, the culinary execution does not match up to the restaurant's appealing facade. Given the underwhelming food experience, it's difficult to wholeheartedly recommend Cleo or consider a return visit.

We ordered Humus as a starter and Cuttlefish Ink Pasta and Meat Mezze Grill as a main. Meat platter was delicious although a bit pricey. Pasta was a huge letdown, incredibly bland on the taste and the presentation nothing compared with the promotion photos.
Other than the food, the place has a beautiful interior design and kind service.

Much like the hotel, the service here is impeccable.

As a gluten free vegetarian foreigner staying in korea for 2 weeks, this was the first restaurant we found that had adequate allergen/etc. labels for everything from gluten, to halal, and vegetarian for all of their items.

They were even kind enough to surprise me with a specially baked bread as a substitute for their pita. Amazing!
