Crystal Jade Yongsan iPark Mall: Restaurant & Room Booking

Among the best restaurants at Yongsan IPark Mall for families,

I'm excited to recommend a fantastic place for family dining.

It's Crystal Jade, located on the 7th floor of the Living Building,

and as a Chinese restaurant, it's a crowd-pleaser that everyone can enjoy.

Most importantly, the ability to reserve private rooms is a huge plus here!

I'll be sharing details about Crystal Jade's location, menu, prices,

and my review of the private room reservation experience.

2. Crystal Jade Menu & Private Room Reservation

They had rooms like the Kowloon Room for 10 people and the Tsim Sha Tsui Room for 8 people.

I used the Tsim Sha Tsui Room for my group of four.

I made the reservation in advance through Catchtable.

When using a private room, there's a minimum order of ~$26 per person for lunch

and ~$33 per person for dinner.

Given the price range of the menu, you'll easily meet the minimum.

If you're looking to enjoy a peaceful meal with your family

in the always-bustling Yongsan IPark Mall,

I highly recommend this restaurant!

You can hang your coats separately, and we couldn't hear any noise from the adjacent rooms,

allowing us to enjoy a truly quiet meal.

📌 Crystal Jade Menu

Xiao Long Bao 6PCS ~$7

Siu Mai 4PCS ~$10

Gan Pung Gi (Spicy Garlic Chicken) ~$29

Aged Hanwoo (Korean Beef) Sweet and Sour Pork ~$37

Seafood Jjamppong (Spicy Noodle Soup) ~$13

Shanghai-style Wonton Noodle Soup ~$10

Iberico Steak Jajangmyeon (Black Bean Noodles) ~$17

There's a wider variety of menu options than I expected, offering plenty of choices,

making it perfect for families to order several dishes and share!

It was also great that each person received their own serving of Zha Cai (pickled mustard stems).

3. Yongsan IPark Mall Restaurant Review

Xiao Long Bao 6PCS ~$7

Honestly, it was my first time visiting a Crystal Jade in Korea,

and I can't believe it took me this long to try it!

Every single dish was absolutely delicious!

The Xiao Long Bao had perfect, rich broth inside,

and the dumpling skin was just the right thickness, wonderfully chewy and flavorful.

Shumai 4PCS ~$10

I actually prefer shumai to xiao long bao,

and I loved it so much that I was almost sad you could only order 4 pieces!

The seafood filling inside was incredibly substantial.

Aged Hanwoo Sweet and Sour Pork ~$37

Normally, when I go to a Chinese restaurant, I opt for pork sweet and sour pork,

but since this was Hanwoo sweet and sour pork, I just had to try it!

The tenderness is on a whole other level,

so if you're dining with your parents or children,

I highly recommend ordering it!

The sauce tasted exactly as I imagined,

but the meat itself was incredibly tender and deliciously savory.

Shanghai-Style Chili Shrimp ~$31

The chili shrimp seemed to be made with medium-sized shrimp,

and you can expect the classic, authentic chili shrimp flavor.

It pairs wonderfully with egg fried rice!

Iberico Steak Jajangmyeon ~$17

Though it was quite a large portion for four of us,

I was just too curious about the Iberico Steak Jajangmyeon,

so we added it to our order.

The amount of meat was incredibly generous, and it tasted delicious, almost like homemade jajangmyeon with hand-pulled noodles.

It's a dish I definitely would have regretted not ordering!

Yangzhou-Style Fried Rice ~$13

I loved that it was a fluffy, authentic Chinese fried rice,

and the addition of lettuce gave it a delightful crunch.

While not overtly unique,

it was a faithful and well-executed egg fried rice.

It's served with egg drop soup.

Shanghai-Style Wonton Noodles ~$10

​

If you're looking for a non-spicy broth, I highly recommend the Shanghai-style Wonton Noodles!

It actually had a generous portion, and the broth was warm and rich,

making it perfect for sharing and savoring the soup.

Honestly, when my family goes out for a meal, Chinese restaurants are often our top choice,

and among all the Chinese restaurants I've visited, this one truly stands out as exceptionally good.

I'm definitely planning to revisit and explore their other menu items next time!

It's particularly fantastic as a dining spot within Yongsan I'Park Mall,

and the option to reserve a private room for families was a huge plus!
