I used to go to the Yeongdae branch all the time back in school, but this was my first visit to the Hayang branch :) It's located near Hayang Station, right in front of Daegu Catholic University. ### What about parking? There's one parking spot in front of the restaurant, and if you use the Hayang Station lot or Hayang Sauna lot, they support ₩1,000 of your parking fee. Just take a photo of your parking as proof! ### Interior seating and reservations Inside it's a cozy spot with two 4-person tables, three 2-person tables, and a bar table. It used to run across 1st and 2nd floors but has been remodeled into a single-floor space. They don't take reservations in general, only the 11:30 opening slot via Naver, and there's a separate waiting area set up. ## Sonsi Sushi's signature: Gyeongsan jujube-aged soy sauce Sonsi Sushi's defining feature is Korea's first jujube-sushi soy sauce — a low-sodium aged soy sauce brewed from Gyeongsan's local specialty jujubes, which deepens the flavor of the sushi! ![Sign explaining the low-sodium aged soy sauce made from Gyeongsan jujubes](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-03-1mpev-900.webp) ![Table seating inside Sonsi Sushi Hayang branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-04-ggkie-900.webp) ## Menu lineup and ordering You order through the tablet on the table.

It includes a sushi platter + bonito udon + aged vinegar-gochujang sashimi rice bowl + house-sauce fried shrimp. Normally it's 10 pieces of sushi, but we upgraded to premium so we got 12 pieces. Look at that visual~~ ![The sushi platter upgraded to premium 12 pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-12-paf13-900.webp) The value set lets you enjoy Sonsi Sushi's top 3 menu items all at once — it's the best choice for two people when you can't decide what to order. ![The full set menu spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-13-2l367-900.webp) Last to arrive was the anago-liver futomaki. ![The Sonsi Anago-liver Futomaki served last](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-14-e8l6o-900.webp) Kombu-cured, brine-aged, and fire-aged — you can experience all three aging techniques on one platter with Sonsi Sushi's signature premium 12pc. Starting from the grilled sushi and eating left to right lets the flow of flavors connect more naturally, piece by piece. ![Premium 12pc sushi showcasing aging techniques](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-15-1pg20-900.webp) ### Aged vinegar-gochujang sashimi rice bowl A house-made makgeolli vinegar-gochujang sauce that pairs so well with the sashimi rice bowl! The umami is truly overflowing. The bowl is packed with vegetables, and there's flounder and salmon under the egg strips. ![Aged vinegar-gochujang sashimi rice bowl with house makgeolli sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-16-1b6kk-900.webp) ![Sashimi bowl topped with flounder and salmon](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-17-1wp20-900.webp) ![A bowl of sashimi rice mixed with vinegar-gochujang sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-18-3s68c-900.webp) ### Bonito udon Udon that pairs so well with sushi as always — I love the hot broth ><. Plump, chewy noodles too. ![Bonito udon included in the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-19-buk5s-900.webp) ### Sonsi Anago-liver Futomaki Sonsi's futomaki lets you taste the deep flavor of bigeye tuna and aged salmon. Less rice, more filling — genuinely delicious. And the savory, rich anago liver on top is a total delicacy. ![Futomaki with bigeye tuna and aged salmon](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-20-1nue0-900.webp) ![A piece of futomaki topped with anago liver](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-21-zw4qc-900.webp) ### Dip in the jujube soy sauce, piece by piece Pour the jujube soy sauce into the small dish and start with the thick grilled salmon first. The salmon really melts in your mouth. Not a hint of fishiness — the sashimi is truly fresh. The eel, soy-sauce shrimp, and octopus gunkan rolls have a spicy kick and are so delicious, and the flounder — sourced from fresh large flounder from Wando — is also chewy and tasty. ![Grilled salmon sushi dipped in jujube soy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-22-tjb0j-900.webp) ![A plate of sushi with eel and gunkan rolls](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-23-k9uhu-900.webp) And finally the freshly fried, crispy shrimp tempura. Sushi, fried food, rice bowl, and udon — a truly satisfying set menu! There was so much food I thought I was going to burst. ![Freshly fried house-sauce shrimp tempura](https://img.superchart.com/images/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi-24-1nw8h-900.webp) ## Wrap-up A Hayang sushi restaurant near Daegu Catholic University that I recommend to anyone who wants to properly taste the deep umami of aged sushi — Sonsi Sushi Hayang branch. - Sonsi Sushi Hayang branch - 8 Hayangyeok-gil, Hayang-eup, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongbuk, South Korea - Daily 11:30–21:00 - Break time 15:30–16:30 - No weekend break time ## Where it is - Sonsi Sushi Hayang branch (손시스시 하양점) - 8 Hayangyeok-gil, Hayang-eup, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongbuk, South Korea - 경상북도 경산시 하양읍 하양역길 8 손시스시 하양점 - 35.910452, 128.8173478 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%86%90%EC%8B%9C%EC%8A%A4%EC%8B%9C%20%ED%95%98%EC%96%91%EC%A0%90/@35.910452,128.8173478,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-banchan-page/sonsi-sushi-hayang-jujube-soy-sushi/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
