Yangyang sashimi takeout tasting 4 fish side by side: Eosiljang

This is the story of Eosiljang Sashimi Takeout, a well-put-together assorted sashimi platter to enjoy at your Yangyang lodging.

Eosiljang Sashimi Takeout opening hours

Eosiljang Sashimi Takeout is open Monday to Friday 15:00–22:00 and Saturday to Sunday 14:30–22:00.

Location and parking

The shop was about 10 km from our lodging, St. The Suite Yangyang, and Yangyang Seolhaewon, Hajodae Beach and Dongho Beach are all nearby.

I searched for Eosiljang Sashimi Takeout in my navigation app, and the roads were well paved, so it was an easy drive, almost a little scenic outing. You can park right in front of the shop!

What is the inside of the shop like?

It seemed to run mainly as a takeout specialist, but I also saw a space where you can sit down and eat.

I heard the owner has run a raw fish restaurant for over 15 years, so I was already looking forward to it.

Do you need to reserve on weekends?

Eosiljang doesn't prepare the fish in advance. They cut it fresh once an order comes in and pack it for you. That's why you should reserve ahead on weekends and holidays!

Menu and prices

As you can see on the menu board, the assorted sashimi is the signature item at Eosiljang!

• Assorted sashimi: 2 people ₩50,000 / 3 people ₩75,000
• Flatfish/rockfish: 2 people ₩55,000 / 3 people ₩75,000
• Flatfish only: 2 people ₩50,000 / 3 people ₩70,000

They also have mulhoe (cold raw fish soup), hoedeopbap (raw fish rice bowl) and maeuntang (spicy fish stew), so keep that in mind when ordering.

What's good about eating takeout sashimi at your Yangyang lodging?

The biggest advantage of takeout sashimi is that you're not rushed. At the lodging you can finish your trip, wash up, keep the fish chilled in the fridge, and then take it out and eat slowly! Especially after a whole day of moving around Yangyang's sights, a relaxed dinner sitting at the lodging actually felt even better.

Eosiljang includes lettuce, perilla leaves, chojang (spicy vinegar sauce), wasabi, ssamjang (dipping paste), soy sauce and seaweed as standard, so everything you need to enjoy the sashimi was there, which I liked.

What came in the assorted sashimi for two?

This time I ordered the assorted sashimi for two at Eosiljang. It was ₩50,000 and, along with assorted seafood, had flatfish, fluke, rockfish and sea bass. The kinds of fish change from moment to moment depending on what's sold out!

The charm of the assorted sashimi at Eosiljang was that you can compare the flavors of several fish rather than eating just one kind.

Flatfish, fluke, rockfish and sea bass: a taste comparison

The flatfish had a mild but chewy texture that I liked, and the fluke had its characteristic clean taste.

The rockfish got milder the more I chewed, firm with a subtle sweetness. I think I actually liked it a bit more than the flatfish.

Personally, out of all of them, the clean, soft texture of the sea bass left the biggest impression. Even though it's all raw fish, the texture and flavor differ a little by type, so tasting them one by one was fun!

The seafood served alongside

The assorted sashimi at Eosiljang also came with fresh seafood like sea snail, sea squirt and abalone, so I never got tired of it!

With seafood and sashimi at the lodging, plus drinks, I got to end the trip happily with my wife.

Verdict: how is Eosiljang Sashimi Takeout for a Yangyang lodging?

There are many ways to eat raw fish in Yangyang, but if you want sashimi to enjoy comfortably at your lodging, takeout is a good choice. Especially when an assorted platter like Eosiljang's includes flatfish, fluke, rockfish, sea bream and sea bass, there's the fun of picking according to your taste.

It had a different kind of comfort from eating in the restaurant, and it was also nice for spending the last quiet hours of a trip with family or friends.

Great assorted sashimi, and a night walk too!
