Southside Parlor is a Texan-style speakeasy housed behind an unmarked fourth-floor door in Itaewon, opened in 2013 by Texan expats. The venue features an urban cool interior bar and a sprawling colorful rooftop terrace with lawn games and city views. Known for craft cocktails, Texas BBQ, and Southern hospitality, the menu includes Texas-Korean fusion dishes and signature items like Fried Chicken Tacos with crispy thighs, homemade pico de gallo, smoked queso, fresh cilantro, and spicy sriracha mayo. Popular with locals, travelers, pet owners, and the LGBTQ community, Southside Parlor offers a genuinely welcoming atmosphere of rustic Texan charm.
