Sushi Chohi is one of the best Sushi restaurants in Seoul, if not the best. The restaurant is located next to Doosan park in Sinsa-dong. It is a very nice area with many good restaurants and bars.
We had the Omakase menu which was absolutely perfect, every piece in perfect size and temperature.
The best rice i have ever experienced, perfectly cooked and seasoned.
My favourites was the Akami, Red Snapper and Otoro. But everything was amazing.
It is not a small restaurant but i strongly recommend that you book in advance and ask to sit at the counter. That is an experience by it self, when you are served piece by piece in perfect order.
I will try to come back many more times for this, definitely my best lunch in Korea so far.

Looks amazing. I am searching for notable omakase places in Seoul that won't break the bank. Been to most of the high end places in NYC, Hawaii, LA and Hong Kong. I was surprised at how high the quality of fish and prep HK provided compared to the price, does Seoul have similar restaurants? How much was the whole lunch omakase?
ReplyDeleteHi. Im sorry to say but all the good omakase places in Seoul will break the bank.
ReplyDeleteBe prepared to pay 150k for lunch and 250-300k for dinner. Its definatly worth it like in some cases like Chohi and Matsumoto. Eating anything other than Korean in Seoul is pricy by Korean standards. But ill guess the prices will be similar compared to NYC and HK
