Description

Summary: In a light, concrete setting, past tastes are reinterpreted with modern technique and produce.

Onjium is more than a restaurant; it is a cultural center that preserves and revives Korea’s culinary memory. The space blends a restrained, concrete and metal aesthetic with a reverent tribute to historical texts, placing fermented pastes at the heart of the menu. Dishes reach back to royal and temple traditions while speaking to contemporary palates, with a focus on seasonal produce and careful technique that invites thoughtful tasting.
