Sushi Hwa is on the 1st floor of 32 Gimhae-daero 2315beon-gil, Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, in Bongridan-gil. There seems to be room for about 2-3 cars to park in front of the restaurant. ![Location guide image for Sushi Hwa](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-02-3s70y-900.webp) From the outside alone, Sushi Hwa already gives off that smoky, char-grilled vibe. ![Exterior of Sushi Hwa restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-03-1svth-900.webp) ![Entrance of Sushi Hwa in Bongridan-gil](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-04-1fomx-900.webp) I deliberately went outside lunch hours, but the crowd was real, haha. Already proving itself as a genuine Gimhae Bongridan-gil favorite. ![Flame-seared sushi set with fresh wasabi tube and blueberries at Sushi Hwa in Gimhae Bongridan-gil](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-05-1wfj5-900.webp) ## Solo seats and high chairs at Sushi Hwa Sushi Hwa has solo seating set up nicely, so it seems good for eating alone too. They also had high chairs. The cozy interior gave off a slight Japan-like feel. Sushi Hwa also has its own private restroom! ![Sushi Hwa interior with a Japan-inspired atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-06-26b8i-900.webp) Looking at Sushi Hwa's interior reminded me of Okinawa, Japan, where I went the year before last. Now, seated! You order through the tablet set up at each table. ![Table setup with sauce, utensil holder, and ordering tablet](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-07-pyu5b-900.webp) ## What comes in the 38,000 won flame-seared sushi set? What we ordered was the Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set! It's flame-seared sushi (27 pieces) + salad + udon or cold soba, priced at ₩38,000. Sauce, paper cups, utensil holder, and tissues were already set on the table. At the time, there was an event running where writing a Naver receipt review got you a choice of a drink or 2 pieces of sushi. ## First to arrive: tube wasabi, salad and udon After a short wait, the salad, udon, and blueberries came out first. ![Salad, udon, and blueberries served first](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-08-hs9x1-966.webp) At Sushi Hwa in Gimhae, fresh wasabi comes out whole in a tube, so you squeeze out as much as you want into a small dish. Personally I'm a wasabi lover, and Sushi Hwa's wasabi had an excellent sharp, tingling kick! ![Fresh wasabi served in a tube](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-09-v1tgw-900.webp) Fresh salad first~ the yuzu sauce drizzled on top was tangy and perfect for whetting the appetite. ![Salad topped with yuzu sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-10-wbrbk-900.webp) Since you choose between cold soba or udon, I chose udon, and the noodles were springy while the broth was warm and rich — I slurped it down in no time. The fish cake in the udon was tasty too, haha. ![A warm bowl of udon with fish cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-11-l1ga5-900.webp) For side dishes there was pickled radish and ginger, plus blueberries, which I love. I originally planned to save the blueberries for last, but couldn't wait, so I kept popping one in between bites — sweet with a slight tang, they gave my mouth a refreshing reset. Surprisingly memorable item 🫐 ![Pickled radish, ginger, and blueberries on the side](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-12-2qgis-900.webp) ## 27 pieces of sushi seared over an open flame Finally, the main dish — the Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi appears! The table next to us saw our sushi and asked what it was, then ordered the same thing, haha. The visuals alone are no joke! ![Full spread of the Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-13-caewj-900.webp) The lightly charred look seems to make it even more appetizing. Sushi Hwa has not only raw sushi but a wide variety of flame-seared sushi menu items, so it seems approachable even for people who aren't big on raw food. ![Close-up of charred flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-14-1l1us-900.webp) The flame-seared sushi had a nice, balanced mix — wagyu, salmon, shrimp, scallop, egg, fried tofu pouch and more — so it was great to enjoy a variety of flavors. When ordering the Sushi Hwa flame-seared sushi set, you can choose a sauce, either garlic sauce or spicy sauce, and since we wanted to try a variety, we ordered half-and-half. ![27 pieces of flame-seared sushi split between garlic and spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-15-1arrg-1200.webp) ### Garlic sauce vs spicy sauce: ordering half and half So the sushi comes out separated like this — garlic sauce sushi and spicy sauce sushi. The garlic sauce was soft and nutty with a subtle garlic aroma rising up 🧄 The flame-seared sushi's distinctive charred flavor paired with the garlic sauce better than expected. ![Flame-seared sushi topped with garlic sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-16-w84y5-900.webp) The spicy sauce added a slight kick that had me reaching for more, again and again. It wasn't too spicy, just the right amount of heat, which was great. ![Flame-seared sushi topped with spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-17-hj4oc-900.webp) Ordering half-and-half definitely made switching back and forth more fun. If it's your first time at Sushi Hwa in Gimhae, I recommend going half-and-half to try a variety! ![Close-up of the flame-seared sushi set platter](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-18-98ngg-900.webp) ![Salmon aburi flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-19-iruvc-900.webp) ![Wagyu flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-20-1mzll-900.webp) ![Scallop flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-21-c1edo-900.webp) ![Shrimp flame-seared sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-22-onvra-900.webp) ![Egg sushi and fried tofu pouch sushi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-23-1yvv2-900.webp) ![Squid flame-seared sushi and the final plate of the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set/gimhae-bongridangil-sushihwa-fresh-wasabi-set-24-1yrts-900.webp) ## A piece-by-piece look at the 27-piece set - Raw shrimp - Scallop - Salmon aburi - Squid - Torched shrimp - Wagyu - Egg - Fried tofu pouch sushi (inari) You can feel the chef's care in every single piece, and the flame-seared flavor really comes through, so if you love that charred taste, you'll definitely love this.
