Yellowtail sashimi bar by Sadang Station: Friday 2nd round at Susan
In short
Susan Sadang Main Branch (수산 사당본점) is an aged-sashimi bar in the Sadang Station food alley in Seoul. On a Friday night in yellowtail season, the writer came for a second round, ordered the yellowtail platter (78,000 won) by QR code and added sweet shrimp buckwheat noodles (23,000 won). Thick, fresh yellowtail wrapped in seaweed makes Susan Sadang Main Branch a recommended winter drinking spot.

There's no way you could miss Susan, it has such an overwhelming presence! For about two months I've had reasons to pass through Sadang Station, so I'd been eyeing several places, and I finally visited. And I found this very place on a Friday night, no less :)
The weather has gotten much nicer lately, but for a while it was cold enough for a padded jacket. Maybe because of the cold I was craving sashimi, and yellowtail season was just around the corner, wasn't it? So I searched right away and ran over!
Susan Sadang Main Branch on a Friday night: is there a seat?
On a Friday night the 1st floor of Susan Sadang Main Branch was full with no seats, but one table was left on the basement level, so we were guided down there. I could feel the packed crowd from outside, and sure enough ∙ ∙ ∙ our group went down to the basement!
Posters line the way down. With the recommended dishes popping against the clean walls, they catch your eye and make your mouth water!
And of course, the cute yellowtail I'd been waiting for was even singing on the poster, so it totally stamped itself on my eyes. (Note: the basement interior photos below were taken on the way out, because it was too full of people before!)
When we came in, every table was packed and bustling! You can really feel how popular Susan is haha
So, shall we get started for real?
Susan Sadang Main Branch table setting and QR ordering
Tables at Susan Sadang Main Branch come with a bottle of water by default, and you order through the QR code on each table. Sauce dishes, cups, wet wipes and the rest of the setting are ready too!
The menu is laid out like this by default, and it seems extra dishes appear by season! Through the QR order we first ordered the yellowtail platter (방어한판) for ₩78,000. We decided to pair the yellowtail we'd had our eyes on with a glass of soju ("dew") ♡
While our food was being prepared, welcome drinks were brought out, one for each person!
Yellowtail platter ₩78,000: how was the yellowtail?
The yellowtail platter (₩78,000) at Susan Sadang Main Branch had really thick, fresh yellowtail. The night was getting more exciting! Let's start by slamming down the photo ♡
One photo says it all ∙ ∙ ∙ What more is there to say? This fantastic look. Even seeing it again, I'm moved.
The yellowtail was so thick and fresh that I locked it in my mouth right away.
Put yellowtail on seaweed (gim), dab it with wasabi, and add a glass of soju ∙ ∙ ∙ this is a truly dangerous snack, gulp (apart from the cold, this is what makes winter great).
Added order: shrimp buckwheat noodles ₩23,000
Partway through the yellowtail, it was so good that we added the shrimp buckwheat noodles (단새우 메밀면, ₩23,000) at Susan Sadang Main Branch. The combination of buckwheat noodles and sweet shrimp was great too.. yellowtail and sweet shrimp, a truly moving night.
There were so many clever dishes that coming hungry would have been a real problem.. Though we'd already eaten a full meal before this 2nd round, one dish was never going to be enough, right?
And with the soju bottles piling up, the chilly night grew deeper still.
You know Sadang Station is always a candidate for any gathering, right? Susan has a great mood and great taste, so be sure to visit, everyone!
