About

Stylish Western bistro in Hannam-dong renowned for fresh Norwegian salmon dishes, handmade gnocchi, and pastas with cozy open windows.

Tucked along an alley between Hangangjin and Itaewon Stations, SOVES Hannam—an acronym for "SomeOne Very Special"—brings a seasoned pedigree to Yongsan. Before setting up shop in this stylish quarter, the kitchen spent a decade in Samseong-dong operating as SOVES with Salmon, perfecting a seafood-forward Western repertoire centered on Norwegian salmon. The dining room channels an antique, European sensibility finished with polished marble tables, ivory and brown leather seating, and statement lighting overhead. When the weather cooperates, floor-to-ceiling accordion windows open wide onto the street, bathing the interior in afternoon daylight before transition-hour pendant lighting casts a romantic glow across couples and gathering friends. True to its roots, salmon remains the focal point. The SOVES Special Roll showcases high-grade, buttery raw salmon that disappears effortlessly on the palate, anchoring a menu loaded with variations from fresh salmon sashimi to spicy rolls. Beyond chilled cuts, the kitchen excels across its hot Western offerings. The shrimp and scallop oil pasta balances rich shellfish juices and plump, tender seafood with a deliberate touch of chili heat that cuts cleanly through the olive oil. For richer cravings, the sea urchin (uni) cream pasta and SOVES gnocchi provide deep, velvety gravies—the latter arriving dense, richly flavored, and pillowy. Classic starters round out a table spread well: garlicky gambas al ajillo arrives hot and fragrant alongside tender, soft-crumbed baguette meant for wiping down the seasoned olive oil. Paired with a dedicated wine list that complements both the lighter crudo preparations and heavier cream sauces, SOVES bridges the gap between casual pasta bar and refined seafood bistro. It is an easy pick for group dinners perched by open windows or low-lit evening dates centered around raw seafood and a chilled bottle.
