Songdo sushi restaurant with a private room table for four: Sushi Doku

Today I want to confidently recommend a sushi restaurant as one of my favorite spots in Songdo, Incheon. It's called Sushi Doku The Songdo, located on the 2nd floor of Onesta right beside Songdo Hyundai Premium Outlet.

Where to park at Onesta Mall

You can park at Onesta's underground lot. Personally, I recommend parking at Songhyeona and walking over instead.

A wait even on a weekday evening

Sushi Doku The Songdo is also known as a Songhyeona favorite. The taste-to-price ratio is excellent and the sets are so well put together that there's always a wait even on weekday evenings — it's genuinely one of the best places to eat in Incheon. It's on the 2nd floor of Onesta in Songdo, right next to Songhyeona, so you can walk straight over from there.

There are 3 signature sushi menus.

Sushi Doku The Songdo has always been popular, so of course there are plenty of customers on weekends.

Plum tea while you wait

Sushi Doku The Songdo serves warm plum tea for customers who are waiting or as a palate cleanser after the meal, and it's tasty too. It's not that artificial green-plum flavor — it really tastes like real plum tea.

Private room seating for small gatherings

It's not a fully private room, but there's a room-style space with two 4-person tables, so it also works well for small group gatherings.

One premium sushi piece from the review event

And the review event here is on a different level — it's not just a free drink. They give you one piece of premium sushi, priced at a whopping 6,900 won per piece, for each person in the review.

Is Sushi Doku The Songdo okay with a baby or young child?

They have baby dishware ready, as well as baby and toddler chairs, so it's a good place to bring a baby or young child. If you want to feed your kid, there's a kids' menu — egg sushi, fried cutlet, and more, all at a really good price for what you get. Worth keeping in mind.

What comes in the 25,900-won 10-piece premium sushi special

This right here is the premium sushi special set.

The sushi comes as a 10-piece set: flounder, red seabream, salmon, squid, sweet shrimp, tuna, red shrimp, snow crab meat, eel, and monkfish liver. The monkfish liver is mashed and comes out creamy and savory — genuinely delicious.

And the set also includes ban-udon, salad, karaage, fried shrimp, and truffle chawanmushi. Such a good spread, right? Even the ban-udon is refillable.

Sushi you brush with soy sauce yourself

You use the soy sauce brush to paint sauce right onto the sushi before eating it — I liked that there was no worry about the rice falling apart.

The salmon sushi is really large. The hidden long tail part underneath surprised me.

The complimentary sushi served that day

And for some reason, we were given a complimentary piece of sushi that day — it looked like it had been scraped from tuna belly meat? It reminded me of something I'd had before, and it had a strong tuna flavor that melted right in the mouth.

Sushi Doku The Songdo is a place I can confidently recommend anywhere as one of the best sushi restaurants in Incheon. It's great to bring kids to as well, so definitely give it a try haha.
