Can I review a place I didn't even eat at? Sure, why not? This place is brand new in Yeouido. It's staff speaks some English and I think it's the only Mexican place in town. (Seriously, I haven't seen any others!)

When I entered La Salsa Loca it was the height of lunchtime. Only a few patrons were there, though. Odd; usually Korean restaurants are packed for at least the first few weeks and especially at lunch.

The food on the overhead menus looked good. Salads, tacos, burritos...but then the prices. The lowest was like 9,000 won (USD 8) and went up to 14,000 won. Huh? A little steep for lunch. My bud just wanted to leave and go to Subway (located in B1 of Hana Securities Building) where we could both eat for about 10,000 won.

Maybe I'll go back for dinner later, if they are still in business.

UPDATE: They just gave me a 15% discount coupon when I was outside the restaurant with friends. We had another place to go....but at least the prices would be better. The coupon extoled the virtues of their fresh and tasty ingredients...which made me more positive on it. Maybe I will try it soon.

Favorite Dish: Never tried.
