I wrote this review because I believe that operating a business in this manner will surely fail. The quality of the raw fish (sashimi) was very bad. It's truly unacceptable that you pretended not to know and served fish that wasn't safe to eat. I felt that this was completely out of line, so I left a review.

I got the worst sushi I have ever had here as take out a couple of days ago. They are incredibly cheap with the fish. They were more like rice rolls with a hint of fish. If you are going to sell sushi rolls like this you should not even sell sushi. The eel was especially terrible. They only added a sliver of eel to the roll.

We recently visited this restaurant and ordered the sashimi platter along with a full oyster, clam, and abalone platter based on the server’s recommendation. While we had high expectations, our experience was disappointing from start to finish.

The service was mediocre at best — no one checked in on us throughout the meal, and we had to flag someone down just to get water refills. For a place serving raw seafood, you’d expect attentive service and a focus on customer care, but that was definitely lacking.

More concerning, however, were the aftereffects. A few days after dining here, everyone in our party developed fever and chills, and one person even suffered from food poisoning. Based on the timing and symptoms, we strongly suspect the seafood was not fresh — potentially even reused — which raises serious food safety concerns.

We won’t be returning and urge others to proceed with caution.

This is a Sekosi specialty restaurant. It was the most delicious meal I have ever had. Thank you so much.

This is not Deoksugung Palace, but has been changed to a raw fish restaurant. We went to Wassada Hoepocha for lunch, and the two of us ordered a large portion of assorted raw fish and ate a lot. If you go to other places, they serve a lot of sukidashi, but the sashimi is served in 4 pieces of each type on top of something like a stone, and they use dry ice to create an optical illusion, but here, the sukidashi is served simply, but the sashimi is really steamed and served in abundance. The salmon is eaten with red pepper paste and wasabi sauce, the tuna is wrapped in seaweed and dipped in oil sauce, and the flounder is eaten with ssam sauce, so it's really delicious. The sashimi was so plentiful and fresh that I thanked the chef and he really impressed me. The owner served me very kindly, so I enjoyed my meal. Oh, and after you finish eating all the raw fish, spicy spicy spicy stew is served in an earthen pot, so make sure to save some. There is a $20 difference between the medium size and the large size, so I ordered a large size to try to eat as much raw fish as I could, but I ended up getting so full that I ended up packing the rest. This is enough for two people to eat together. I think I will eat it generously. Sea Story was $200 for 4 people a few years ago, but it seems to have gone up now. This is a place where 4 people can fill their stomachs with sashimi for half the price. I highly recommend it to those who are serious about sukidashi.

Decent price point for hweh (Korean sashimi). Lower price point for fewer side dishes. It's fair trade off and a nice option.

All of the side dishes that they served were either old or recycled, but what really set us off was the steamed egg. The first one they brought us was completely burnt black, overcooked and inedible (it had to have been reheated multiple times on the stove). When I called the server over, he seem to already know what the issue was before I asked about it - why have the audacity to serve it in the first place? The new steamed egg came out and was significantly better, the difference was night and day.

The remaining side dishes were stale and dry, but we didn't bother to ask for new ones. Someone had previously mentioned the same issue of recycled side dishes in an earlier review, but we thought it was a one-off. I won't be coming back.

Small shop with a wide variety of foods to choose from. While there was a lot to pick and choose the flavor was pretty average and at time flavorless. Hopefully they improve the next time I vist.
