It offers a variety of street food menus including kimchi pancake, pork mung bean pancake, seafood udon, clear clam and mussel soup, and boiled rock octopus. Specialty dishes such as Jeju pork noodles, eggplant skewers flavored with Jeju organic soybean paste, and Jeju pork skewers are also offered. The alcoholic beverages include Jeju draft makgeolli, Pocha punch with watermelon, melon bar cocktails, and fruit makgeolli blended with blueberry or pineapple.

A representative from Lotte Tour Development explained, "With a refreshing panoramic view overlooking Jeju city center, the runway, and the sea, the sunset hour offers a view of the Jeju sunset, complemented by colorful lanterns hanging from the ceiling that add a serene atmosphere." They added, "The unique colors and beautiful scenery of Jeju change moment by moment throughout the day, making it very popular." They continued, "Customers flock from the afternoon to secure window seats with the best sunset views," and added, "The appetizer platter, boasting distinctive menus and high cost-effectiveness, is highly ordered in sync with the time of day."
