Jeju Island, in particular, often experiences flight cancellations or delays due to strong spring winds, and there are frequent controversies about overpriced food, so careful selection is needed when planning a trip. Fortunately, all the restaurants we visited were satisfactory. After visiting Bontae Museum for our first destination, we headed to <strong>Snail Restaurant<\/strong> for lunch.<\/p>\n<p>Snail Restaurant opens at 11 AM, with the last order taken until 3 PM, and is closed on Fridays. The interior of the restaurant is clean and well-organized, and my husband and I sat by the window near the entrance.<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_1_90025EF25BC25BF2026032525EF25BC25BF121659.jpg\" alt=\"Exterior of Snail Restaurant\"><\/p>\n<p>Snail Restaurant, visited as a Jeju restaurant on March 26, 2026.<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_2_90025EF25BC25BFScreenshot25EF25BC25BF2026040525EF25BC25BF09105925EF25BC25BFNAVER.jpg\" alt=\"Interior view of Snail Restaurant\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_3_90025EF25BC25BFScreenshot25EF25BC25BF2026040525EF25BC25BF09113425EF25BC25BFNAVER.jpg\" alt=\"Information sign at Snail Restaurant\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>[Operating Information]<\/strong><br \/>\nOpen: 11:00 AM<br \/>\nLast Order: 3:00 PM<br \/>\nClosed: Fridays<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_4_90025EF25BC25BF1775348018875.jpg\" alt=\"Menu at Snail Restaurant\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>[Menu]<\/strong><br \/>\nSnail Restaurant sells only one menu item: the <strong>Snail Set Meal<\/strong> (17,000 KRW per person).<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_5_90025EF25BC25BF2026032525EF25BC25BF121752.jpg\" alt=\"Origin information at Snail Restaurant\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>[Origin Information]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_6_1775388481033.jpg\" alt=\"Interior view of Snail Restaurant\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_7_90025EF25BC25BF2026032525EF25BC25BF121727.jpg\" alt=\"Interior tables at Snail Restaurant\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_8_90025EF25BC25BF2026032525EF25BC25BF121806.jpg\" alt=\"Window seating at Snail Restaurant\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_9_90025EF25BC25BF1775348104374.jpg\" alt=\"View from window seating at Snail Restaurant\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/linksboo.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/linkboo_11980_10_1775388445450.jpg\" alt=\"Table setting preparation at Snail Restaurant\"> <\/p>\n<h3>A Generous and Refined Table Setting<\/h3>\n<p>The Snail Set Meal we ordered is served on a tray, often called an &#8216;obong&#8217;, filled with food.
