L'Amitié (lit. 'friendship'; Korean: 라미띠에[1]) is a fine dining restaurant in Seoul, South Korea. It specializes in French cuisine and first opened in 1999.[2] It received one Michelin star for 2018 (the first year the guide was offered in Seoul)[3] through 2025.[4][5]
The restaurant first opened in 1999.[2] A 2001 article reported that its owner was named Seo Seung-ho (서승호).[6] In 2006, Jang Myoung-sik became the head chef and owner.[1][2] Jang reportedly left a stable job and took up debt in order to acquire the restaurant.[2]
A 2014 article reported that the restaurant operated out of a very small facility with just two tables on a 100% reservation basis (the restaurant is in a different location as of 2024[update][7]).[1] The owner reportedly claimed that in a Michelin Guide representative once ate at the restaurant before the guide was ever offered in Seoul; the representative reportedly claimed the restaurant was worthy of being included in the guide.[1]
