The Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set costs 38,000 won and arrives with warm udon and icy cold soba on the side, two sauces to compare (garlic and spicy), and salmon, beef, egg and inari sushi all brushed with smoky flame flavor. Sushi Hwa suits both people who find raw fish hard going and anyone who loves that seared, smoky taste, and it works well as a Bongridan-gil date course. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1st floor, 32 Gimhae-daero 2315beon-gil, Gimhae-si, Gyeongnam - **Hours**: 11:30 AM – 9:00 PM - **Parking**: Public parking lots and alley parking around Bongridan-gil - **Ordered**: Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set, 38,000 won - **Seating**: Bar seats and tables for 2 to 8 people - **Sauces**: Two kinds: garlic sauce and spicy sauce - **Price reference**: ₩38,000 ≈ $27.5 (2026-09-20) *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* I had plans in Bonghwang-dong and swung by a sushi place on Bongridan-gil that's famous for its direct-flame-seared flavor.

Sushi Hwa has that cute-but-clean exterior with the signature Bongridan-gil vibe, haha 🤍 There are bar seats plus tables for 2 to 8, so the layout works for solo dining or a lunch date. ![Sushi Hwa entrance and outside view](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-02-701np-966.webp) ![Bright interior lighting inside Sushi Hwa](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-03-130c1-966.webp) ![Sushi Hwa wall covered in posters](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-04-td3vn-966.webp) ![Bar seats and table layout at Sushi Hwa](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-05-1t911-966.webp) ![View of the seating area inside Sushi Hwa](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-06-k2l5z-966.webp) The moment I stepped inside, it was clear this wasn't the heavy, formal kind of Japanese restaurant — the whole place felt casual and hip. Bright warm lighting throughout, and the posters on the walls gave it a nice exotic touch.

The flame-seared sushi set came with warm udon and icy cold soba on the side. The udon arrived first, piled generously with fish cake, crown daisy greens and tenkasu (fried tempura bits) — it looked great and the umami was insane. Could easily go for two bowls *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ ![Udon topped with fish cake, crown daisy and tenkasu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-13-1l95e-966.webp) ![Lifting up a strand of udon noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-14-4yyk4-966.webp) The broth was deep and rich, and the noodles had a great springy, chewy texture. Sushi plus warm broth — best combo ever! ![Cold soba in icy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-15-125g6-966.webp) Sushi wouldn't be complete without cold soba, either. Highly recommend it as an essential summer side! ![Cold soba served with grated radish and wasabi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-16-177vw-966.webp) Stir in some grated radish and wasabi into the cool, icy broth and you get that sweet-salty refreshing flavor, haha. The noodles kept their chewiness too — really enjoyed it. ![Full spread of the Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-17-11qh8-966.webp) ## Sushi Hwa's 38,000 won flame-seared sushi set: garlic sauce vs spicy sauce Sushi Hwa's signature dish is the Gimhae Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set (₩38,000). If you're normally sensitive to the fishy taste of raw fish, or if you love the savory richness of lightly seared salmon or beef sushi, this is a must-try! ![Garlic sauce drizzled over flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-18-1fz1q-m-1200.webp) *Garlic sauce* The set comes with two sauce options, garlic and spicy, so it's fun to pick your favorite or compare the two side by side. ![A plate of flame-seared sushi with garlic sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-19-1yct0-966.webp) The garlic sauce is a textbook sweet-salty-savory combo. The subtle garlic aroma and smooth, savory sauce pair perfectly with the flame-seared flavor (⸝⸝⍢⸝⸝) ෆ ![Flame-seared sushi topped with spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-20-heuso-966.webp) *Spicy sauce* The spicy sauce cuts right through any richness. It's a sharp, spicy house-made sauce — might be a bit much for the spice-shy though...? ![Flame-seared sushi with half garlic, half spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-21-1von8-966.webp) It keeps what could get greasy tasting clean and never boring! Going half-and-half with both sauces meant getting the savory and the spicy at the same time, which was perfect for a food lover like me ᐝ (๑⃙⃘´༥`๑⃙⃘) ![Salmon sushi with only the surface torched](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-22-rv3tv-966.webp) *Salmon sushi* ### Flame-seared salmon and beef sushi at Sushi Hwa The salmon sushi is only lightly torched on the surface, maximizing that rich, fatty flavor..! It melts softly in your mouth. ![Beef flame-seared sushi topped with special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-grilled-sushi-set-23-1x8wq-966.webp) *Beef flame-seared sushi* The beef flame-seared sushi isn't dry at all — soft and tender with every bite. Each chew brought out the juices and the sweet, smooth flavor of the special sauce, blending beautifully with the smoky char. ### The sleeper hits: egg sushi and inari sushi And honestly, the inari (fried tofu pouch) sushi and egg sushi were the real hidden gems! The egg sushi is sweet and fluffy, with a touch of flame char and sauce on top giving it a genuinely luxurious flavor, and the inari sushi has that sweet-salty taste everyone from kids to grandparents would love. Adding a touch of that flame flavor even to the basic sushi lineup, beyond just the beef and seafood, made everything look and taste perfect. ## Final verdict: who should eat at Sushi Hwa in Gimhae? - ✔️ Anyone who loves smoky aburi-style sushi - ✔️ Anyone who can't eat raw fish - ✔️ Anyone looking for a good date spot on Bongridan-gil Definitely try this Bongridan-gil sushi restaurant if you want to experience the essence of flame-seared flavor!
