Cuchara Coex - Seoul

Good place when they are in the opposite. eating was nothing extraordinary, but delicious and I would come back. unfortunately they don't serve free water. for directions: if they are in front of the food dish, turn right and go where the cash machines are. turn left and see the name above a staircase. go down there and then it's right.

I am a big fan of Mexican food but struggle to find authentic Mexican restaurants in Seoul that use the right ingredients. Cuchara offers good Mexican dishes, although they may not always be completely traditional. Located behind the COEX CJ Food Court, Cuchara serves vegan burritos, tacos, nachos, and other standard Mexican fast food. Whether you choose a vegan or non-vegetarian menu, each dish is made from scratch. Customers can customize their order by selecting the type of dish (Burrito/Burrito Bowl/Taco), type of beans, sauce, and toppings. The only vegan protein option is tofu. Portions are generous and diners can choose brown rice instead of salad or white rice for a healthier option. Guacamole is available but the texture may not be to everyone's liking. The nachos are not recommended. Prices are affordable and filling. If you're looking for a budget-friendly meal while shopping at COEX, Cuchara is a good option. Overall, we rate it a 5 to 6 out of 10.

I am a big fan of Mexican cuisine, but I struggle to find authentic Mexican restaurants in Seoul that serve the right kind of beans. Cuchara serves good Mexican beans (although they are preserved). The restaurant is located right behind the Coex CJ Food Court and offers vegan options such as burritos, tacos, nachos, and other typical Mexican fast food dishes. When ordering, you have the option to customize your dish, whether you choose a vegan or non-vegetarian menu. You can choose the type of dish (burrito, burrito bowl, taco), the type of beans (they offer two options, I usually ask for both), the level of spiciness of the sauce, and other toppings. The only vegan protein option is tofu, so make sure to choose that and skip the sour cream and shredded cheese. They also add some vegetables to the dish. Cuchara is like a Subway for Mexican salads. The portions are generous, and you can opt for brown rice instead of salad or white rice for a healthier option. You can also add guacamole, although the texture may not be to everyone's liking. The nachos are not recommended. Overall, the meals are affordable and filling. If you plan on spending the whole day shopping at Coex but don't want to spend a lot on a meal at one of the more expensive restaurants, Cuchara is a good option for a budget-friendly meal. It's light on your wallet but satisfying for your stomach, keeping you full for 5 to 6 hours.

Cuchara is like a Mexican Subway for salads, with generous portions and the option to swap white rice for brown rice. I suggest skipping the guacamole, as the texture is odd, and avoiding the nachos altogether. Overall, the meals are affordable and satisfying, making Cuchara a great choice for a budget-friendly meal while shopping at Coex. It's light on your wallet but will keep you full for hours.

This is a great place to visit if you are in the area. The food was not spectacular, but it was tasty and I would definitely return. Unfortunately, they do not offer complimentary water. For directions: When facing the food court, turn right and head towards the ATMs. Take a left there and you will see the establishment's name above a staircase. Walk down the stairs and it will be on your right.
