Korean food prices from real restaurant menus
These price ranges are calculated from approved MANUPIC menu records in South Korea. To reduce distortion, only menu rows whose Korean menu name exactly matches the dish are used. The “middle range” is the 25th–75th percentile, not a guaranteed restaurant price.

FAQ
- Are these average prices for every restaurant in Korea?
- No. They are medians and middle ranges from approved menu records currently stored in MANUPIC.
- Why use the median instead of the average?
- The median is less affected by premium restaurants, large sharing portions and unusual menu prices.
- Are these prices guaranteed?
- No. Restaurant menus and prices change. Treat these figures as a planning reference and confirm the current menu when needed.
