The best Italian food in Busan, according to the experts: the Michelin Guide and The 50 have both weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Fiotto comes out on top.

Rank 1. Fiotto
Contemporary Italian
A husband-and-wife restaurant on Dalmaji Hill where the pasta comes from a tasting menu and the pork comes from Jirisan, and the vegetables come from the family farm, which is the kind of supply chain that takes real commitment. The wood-toned room is quiet and warm, the cooking leans Italian but thinks Korean, and nearly everything on the table, from the fresh pasta to the cured ham, is made in-house. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on Asia's 50 Best list.

Rank 2. Cor Pasta bar
Italian
A counter of maybe a dozen seats wraps around an open kitchen in a trendy Jeonpo-dong alley, which sets the whole mood at this Italian pasta bar. House-made pasta is the point, ranging from bisque-soaked spaghetti to bottarga and a hanwoo beef ragù that quietly ignores the rules about not mixing Korean beef with Italian Sunday sauce. One drink per person is the house rule, so the wine list gets consulted whether you planned on it or not.

Rank 3. Outro by Vito
Italian
House-made pasta that goes through fermentation before it hits the plate is the detail that sets this Italian restaurant apart near Gwangalli Beach. The noodles have a glutinous pull that clings to sauce in a way dried pasta never quite manages. The menu rounds out with salads and meat, and the natural wine list gives you a good reason to linger in a room that manages contemporary elegance without feeling like a furniture showroom.
