I always loved Isaac Toast, and this is one good place for breakfast or to grab a bite when you head out from the Myeongdong station. What is a little disappointing about this branch is that it is too small there is basically no place to dine in, it only operates out of a window. Also the variety of the sandwiches are greatly reduced. I was already thinking of eating a shrimp one but to my disappointment it wasn't served there. Good is good but a lot of limitations due to the foot size of the restaurant. Food wise literally nothing to complain about, it was my first meal when I arrived in Seoul from the airport.

Nothing unexpected besides the sweetness in the syrup/sauce that is added to the toast sandwich. Savory and sweetness is the pared-down level of McDonald's mcgriddles without the maple and sausage seasoning taste.
No seating. Take out or stand eating in streets only.
For the value, it is not bad for a quickie. There seems to be always a line, but it goes...
