Which plant-based restaurants in Seoul suit vegetarian and non-vegetarian diners together?
Short answer
Osegyehyang in Insadong and ALT.a in Itaewon are concrete choices for a vegetarian and non-vegetarian sharing a meal. Both serve plant-based food, so choose them if both diners are happy with a meat-free meal; they are not mixed meat-and-vegetarian restaurants.
What to do
- Compare Osegyehyang’s vegan Korean-style choices with ALT.a’s plant-based Korean-style Chinese menu.
- Use Osegyehyang at 14-5 Insadong 12-gil or ALT.a at 1F, 109 Bogwang-ro, then check the current menu and hours.
- If real meat is essential to one diner, choose a separately verified mixed-menu venue instead.
Check before relying on this
- Both named options are plant-based. Choose another venue if having real meat is essential to either diner.

Practical detail and remaining limits
Osegyehyang in Insadong offers vegan versions of familiar dishes, including sweet-and-sour mock meat and seasoned fried mock chicken. A non-vegetarian can choose those too; this is an option for sharing a meal, not evidence of a menu containing real meat.
