About
Authentic Indian-Nepalese curry restaurant in Gongdeok with lunch sets featuring tali, curries, and naan. Branch of Om Restaurant with multiple locations.
# Om Restaurant & Café: Where Gongdeok's Craving for Curry Gets Satisfied Tucked on the second floor of SK Hub Green near Gongdeok Station, Om Restaurant brings the spice and soul of Indian and Nepali cooking to Mapo's office workers and weekend explorers. The moment you step through the entrance, the aroma of warming spices and the warm terracotta tones of the interior transport you beyond Seoul's corporate district. The Today's Tali Set anchors the lunch menu at 14,000 won per person—a steal for what arrives: a mushroom cream soup with pronounced spice notes, vegetable curry studded with tofu, chicken curry that deepens in character as you eat, fluffy plain naan, and a choice of rice. The vegetable curry plays it measured, its aromatics balanced rather than overwhelming. The chicken curry, however, steals the spotlight: substantial chicken pieces swim in a sauce reminiscent of chicken makhani, rich enough to justify second helpings yet restrained enough that the flavors don't assault the palate. Both curries share a quality that sets Om apart—the spice profile respects the diner's palate rather than demanding surrender to heat. The naan arrives warm and tender, ready to cradle the curries with purpose. Accompaniments arrive without pretense: pickled onions, jalapeños, and pickles that cut through the richness. The roti feels less like an afterthought and more like a partner in the meal. The dining room accommodates generous numbers without feeling cramped—a welcome relief in Mapo's tight quarters. On weekday lunches, you'll slip in without waiting. The owner is Indian, a detail that translates into authenticity without the need for shortcuts. Whether you're escaping a nearby office or hunting for honest Indian food in this neighborhood, Om delivers what it promises: straightforward, well-executed curries and the kind of meal that leaves you satisfied rather than guilty.
