Sushijo at the Westin Chosun is a long-established Tokyo-style sushi restaurant that blends traditional Japanese presentation with a modern sensibility. Widely recognized in Korea (the Zagat Korea guide praised its taste), it’s best-known for sushi courses and omakase prepared under a Japanese head chef who trained at a notable Tokyo sushi house. You can order sushi, jorim (braised/simmered dishes), and tempura separately, or choose a full course; originally located underground, the restaurant moved to the 20th floor in 2009 and expanded its menu.

Local Tips

•Omakase and multi-course sushi experiences showcasing seasonal seafood — choose omakase for the full chef-led tasting
•Elegant hotel setting on the 20th floor with a quieter, refined atmosphere compared to casual sushi bars
•Reservations recommended; menu offers à la carte sushi, jorim (braised dishes), tempura, and takeout options
