Trattoria Romagna

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Taste of Italy in Seocho

Trattoria Romagna sits on a quiet lane in Seoul's Seocho District, carrying a name that points directly to its roots: the Romagna region of northern Italy, a land of bold, unpretentious cooking built on fresh pasta, slow-braised meats, and generations of kitchen tradition.

The restaurant earned a fork from Gambero Rosso — Italy's most authoritative food and wine guide — in its 2026 edition, a recognition that carries real weight for an Italian table operating far from the peninsula. A Gambero Rosso fork signals that the kitchen meets a standard the guide's inspectors trust, making Trattoria Romagna one of the few addresses in Seoul to appear in that company.

What to Expect

The trattoria format is an honest one: no elaborate tasting menus, no theatrical presentations — just the kind of straightforward, ingredient-led Italian cooking that has sustained the format for centuries. The Romagna tradition in particular leans on handmade pasta like tagliatelle and piadina flatbreads, rich ragù, and produce treated with respect rather than reinvention.

For Seoul diners, Trattoria Romagna offers a rare chance to experience that regional Italian sensibility without compromise, in a second-floor setting that keeps things relaxed and personal.
