Dos Tacos: Mexican in Gangnam, Hongdae, and Bundang, and Several Other Locations
Dos Tacos is taking over Seoul. There are currently eight locations (as of July 2010; but by the time you read this, there may be more).
Dos Tacos offers high-quality Mexican in a small, trendy setting. (And there's actually cilantro, if you're into that kind of thing). It's not weak, Koreanized Mexican. Nor is it the anemic burritos of Pancho's. It's both reasonably authentic and objectively delicious. Die-hard Mexican purists will probably tell you to hit up Taco Rico instead, where the food is cooked an an actual Mexican person. But hey, let's not kid ourselves; Dos Tacos is really good. The portions are a bit small, though, so I normally end up ordering several things and spending more than I'd like there.
Note for vegetarians/vegans: there are vegetable, fried vegetable, and potato burritos on the menu. For vegans, though, you will have to request no cheese, sour cream, etc.
Take a look at their website (http://www.dostacos.co.kr/) for their menu and for their eight locations:
1. Gangnam Station
2. Apgujeong Station
3. Seoul Station
4. Seohyeon Station (Bundang)
5. Ichon Station (on the Jungang Line; the really light blue line)
6. Seorae (near the French Village and the Express Bus Terminal Stop on Lines 3/7
7. Seoul National University
Here's a google map showing all the Dos Tacos locations to help you out (the website's own maps are rather vague at times). You can zoom in/out or move around at will:
