Cafe de Victory

Arrive around opening time, and the kitchen greets you with fragrant, freshly griddled Korean-style toast. Nogata's Cafe de Victory serves a morning menu from 8:00 to 11:00, offering both standalone sandwiches and drink sets. Generously stuffed with fillings like gently sweetened eggs, these substantial toasts have earned an appreciative following, pairing easily with a morning coffee. Takeout toast sets are also ready for those on a tight morning schedule.

Evenings Centered on Jeon and Gimbap

Despite the cafe awning, the kitchen pivots effortlessly into full-flavored Korean dishes from daytime into night. Seafood-scallion jeon and kimchi jeon can both be ordered in half-portions, making them accessible even for solo diners or pairs, alongside a crisp, chewy potato and cheese jeon. Samgyeopsal gimbap, tteokbokki, and tofu kimchi round out the lineup, offering plenty to share across the table.

For parties of two or more, the evening pair sets streamline ordering with choices between boiled pork belly bossam or cheese samgyeopsal, accompanied by japchae, sundubu-jjigae, and drinks. To drink, Korean bottled beers like TERRA and CASS sit alongside corn silk tea highballs, yuzu sours, and cloudy makgeolli.

Whether you stop by for a quiet morning toast at a comfortable table or gather around a spread of Korean plates after dusk, the venue adapts easily to the rhythms of the day.
