Would have been five stars two years ago but sushi restaurants have become so competitive that you can find better and cheaper restaurants. Hikari serves good neta but the shari is not the best. (A bit out of trend. The rice was not firm and dry enough. It was kind of irritating to taste). I think 스시사카우 and 스시도우 will give you a better experience.

One of the best sushi place at reasonable price among nearby sushi-yas. Reservation is a must, at least day before your visit. Place is small and quiet, good for dining with small group.
Sushi\ is such a used and abused word in foreign countries, and Korea is no exception. If you think of it as simply rice, raw fish, soy sauce, wasabi, maybe some seaweed, then you wont mind the plethora of restaurants that offer cheap dishes made with these ingredients. I appreciate them as well from time to time. But true sushi is something that transcends the sum of it's parts. It doesn't beg to be gorged on as a buffet meal or a quick snack, rather it stands to be appreciated in a cadence prescribed by the chef, to satisfy without gluttony. Sushi Hikari is the first restaurant outside of Tokyo that has offered me that experience, and it does so without prohibitively expensive prices. Nestled slightly below the surface of a side street in Hongdae, Sushi Hikari is as unassuming as any small Seoul restaurant you'd see walking the streets of Itaewon, Gangnam, or Jongno-gu. It's 25,000 for lunch, which is from 12-2:30, and a reservation is required. No exceptions. They also offer dinner from 5:00 onwards, but the prices are higher and the courses are different. Each piece is offered one at a time, whether you are alone or with a group, and I recommend allowing an hour or more for your meal. You won't want to rush this. In addition to the sushi, you'll receive miso soup and cold soba noodles with shiitake mushroms, as well as complimentary tea and dessert. Keep in mind that the chef is in charge of the soy sauce and wasabi ratio, so do not expect any on the side. Though this restaurant is not strictly for sushi connoisseurs and expert foodies, the chef is very dedicated to his craft, and so one should conduct themselves in a respectful manner. If you have the time, and an interest in sushi, it would be foolish not to stop by. It's seriously that good.
While I am not a sushi expert, I love sushi and eat it in every city I visit. I was looking for some in Seoul and while hanging out in Hongdae, I came across Sushi Hikari for lunch. Some of the reviews said that you had to have a reservation, but I thought I would check it out. The restaurant is very small (only seven seats), and it was difficult to see if it was open. All of the seats were empty, so I thought that maybe it was closed. I took the short steps down to the sliding door entrance and opened the door. The chef pointed to an open seat. Since I don't speak Korean or Japanese (the chef was able to say that he was trained in Osaka), I asked for the omakase. I was served a wide array of dishes (sashimi, sushi, a roll, soup and dessert). The saba and maguro were as good as any fish I have ever had. Plus, he served me anago which has been difficult for me to find in the Seattle area where unagi is the 'go to' eel. I'm glad to have found this little gem in Seoul.
Amazing.
가성비 좋다는 건 말하면 입아프고요. 제철 생선에 대한 소소한 팁(?) 곁들여 내어 주시는 맛있는 스시가 참 감사합니다. 나만 알고 싶지만...다들 돈쭐내주세요!! 예약 필수라고 해요. (사진은 5월달 런치 오마카세 스시코스구요, 교꾸, 표고국수, 후식 디저트로 산양요거트까지 있습니다)
신라호텔과 쌍벽을 이루는 스시조 출신 김노성 셰프님의 홍대 오마카세 업장입니다. 숙성회를 기반한 1인업장으로 젊은 셰프님의 결코 가볍지 않은 니기리를 쥐어주십니다. 한점한점이 묵직한데 이가격에서 이정도 퀄리티는 찾기힘들것 같습니다. 부디 이곳을 방문하시는 분들은 주변에 여기를 소개해주지 말아주세요. 저만 다니게요
예전에는 오마카세를 하던 스시야 였는데 블로그를 보고 노쇼 때문에 오마카세를 요즘 하지 않는다는 글을 본 기억이 나서 지나가는 길에 들러 예약하지 않았지만 괜찮은 지 물어본 후 착석해서 먹었습니다. 오늘의 메뉴로 판매 하고 있었고 제가 간 이날은 사시미 전복술찜 히츠마부시 우니동 후토마끼등을 판매 하고 있었습니다. 카톡문의 하시면 미리 메뉴를 알려주신다 하니 미리 문의하고 가면 좋을 듯 합니다 두 세팀 정도 들어 갈 수 있는 공간이지만 작고 알찬 가게 입니다 맛도 가격도 아주 훌륭하기에 주변인들에게도 많은 추천 하게 되는 가게 입니다. 저는 소주가 없어서 조금 아쉬운 개인적인 마음이 있습니다
