Here’s another addition to the Restaurant Menu Series.

Yaletown has a great array of bar and comfort foods. Everything is made in house by Chef Jason. It’s a great place to chillax with friends over a cold pint or a shot of Russian Vodka.

Drinks Menu
Russian Vodka for 35,000 a bottle! Wow! Cass is only 3,000 a pint.
The Yaletown Nachos are phenomenal. The Mushroom Burger is great as well.
 
Nightly Specials. We’ve got wings on Monday, Tuesday is Mexican Night-get your bottle of tequila.

    Yaletown is in Shinchon, without the 'e' man. Pretty critical there.

    I went to Yaletown not too long ago, but it was too late to get anything but a drink, as their kitchen had closed for the night. They do have a nice little space and their menu and prices look to be friendly, as was their staff.

    I do hope they find their niche amongst all of the Shinchon pubs and drinkers.

    I have been craving a mushroom burger. Nice to know they exist out here.


  3. Me and some friends went to Yaletown last week and were disappointed. It took them a veery long time to give us the burgers and when I got mine it was cold. The taste was good though but the fries that came with was soft and cold. Sad.

    I would recommend the burgers at The Best Burgers in Seoul at the top of Namsan, despite their modest name ;)
    The patty is made fresh behind the counter and the burger comes out with a nice smokey taste!
