2-Year Anniversary at N-Seoul Tower's N Grill Restaurant

I took my fiancé here for our two-year anniversary as a couple. When you're all dressed up, the only option is to take the cable car up the mountain instead of walking up the stairsSince we just went last night (May 28), it made it a bit of a challenge since the weather was really nice and it was Saturday night. In short there were a lot of people. Fortunately we got there a bit early. Our reservation was at 9:00 and we arrived at about 7:10pm. We had to wait in a long line just to get to the ticket booth and another line to wait to get on the cable car. 
Once we got to the top, we went downstairs to find the entrance to go up to the tower. By then it was 8:35. One of the restaurants (which is on the 4th floor of the restaurant) has its own elevator leading up to the 4th floor. N Grill (which is on the 5th floor) does not have its own elevator to the 5th floor. You have to get in another line with people heading to the observation deck. It's extremely inefficient. We got in line at 8:45 and then we were told to wait until 9:00 to get back in line. At that point, I was losing my patience.

However, once we got to the restaurant, we were pleasantly surprised. We slowly rotated in a circle and saw many beautiful views of Seoul. 




We got a lot of appetizers which were excellent especially the bread and two kinds of soup. The steak was very good as well.





The service was excellent and the staff was accommodating. We also got a complimentary glass of sparkling wine since we ordered steak. Finally, the restaurant prepared a cake for our anniversary which had a tasty mango filling in the middle. 





The total cost was just over ₩300,000. Was I worth it? I loved the restaurant and my fiancé was happy. Would I do it again? Probably not. I'll try a romantic but less stressful option for my wedding anniversary.
