Gold Tuna Sinsa-dong: Premium Royal Special Lunch Review
After years of running a restaurant, I've realized that guests leave behind more than just empty plates. Sometimes it's photos, sometimes it's short heartfelt notes, and sometimes it's the beginning of a long-lasting memory.
Among these, the most rewarding gift is a personal recommendation.
It happens when a guest who enjoyed their stay sends someone they care about to our shop. Today, we had a special encounter that crossed borders, all the way from Hong Kong.
A Special Visit: Mother and Daughter from Hong Kong
They visited us during the lunch hour.
Their choice of menu was the "Royal Special," one of our premium courses.
This visit was actually sparked by a friend's recommendation.
A friend who had dined at Goldtuna back in March strongly recommended us to them.
Though it was their first time here, they came with high expectations based on their friend's wonderful experience.
Goldtuna Sinsa Branch: Exterior & Interior
Goldtuna’s Viral Videos Reaching Hong Kong
Our guests shared that they had already seen Goldtuna’s videos on Instagram while in Hong Kong.
They particularly enjoyed the tuna carving clips and the famous "Somaek" (Korean beer and soju cocktail) videos.
While the "Somaek Auntie" is a legend at our Bangi branch, these guests chose the Sinsa branch to fit their Gangnam itinerary.
Goldtuna Sinsa is perfectly located near Sinsa-dong, Apgujeong, and Garosu-gil.
It’s easily accessible from both Sinsa Station and Apgujeong Station.
For international tourists staying in or exploring the Gangnam area, the Sinsa branch offers the most convenient location.
Personalized Somaek Service at Sinsa Branch
The guests requested a Somaek performance like the ones they saw in the videos.
Our Sinsa branch manager stepped in to personally prepare the drinks for them.
While it’s not the same "Somaek Auntie" from the Bangi branch, we do our best to accommodate these requests at the Sinsa branch whenever possible.
Since these guests came with such excitement after watching our videos, our team made sure to provide an experience that met their expectations.
The Royal Special Lunch Experience
The "Royal Special" is one of Goldtuna's signature courses.
Centered around premium tuna sashimi, a variety of dishes are served in a curated sequence.
The course begins with tuna porridge, salad, fish balls, and grilled mushrooms.
It then transitions into the main tuna, sushi, additional tuna service, warm dishes, udon, maki, and finally, dessert.
This isn't just a repetitive tuna menu.
By interspersing grilled items, tempura, and warm udon, we provide a balanced meal.
This well-rounded composition is particularly popular among our international guests who seek a comprehensive taste of Korean-style tuna omakase.
Memories Left by International Guests at Sinsa
Goldtuna Sinsa is filled with notes and photos left by our beloved guests.
Beyond our local Korean patrons, we have many messages from travelers from Hong Kong, Japan, China, Taiwan, and beyond.
Our Hong Kong mother-daughter duo also left a kind note for us.
These records are a testament to the steady stream of international visitors who trust us for a premium dining experience in Seoul.
If you are looking for the best place to dine with international guests in Sinsa-dong:
We’ve seen a significant increase in global visitors recently, many finding us through YouTube, Instagram, and word-of-mouth.
