📍 Location & How to Get There
Dong Eo Dong Rak is just a 5-minute walk from Samsung Station and located near the COEX Mall area. Super convenient for foreign travelers or business visitors staying in Gangnam!

🍣 What I Ordered
We tried the seasonal sashimi sets – especially the spring flounder (봄도다리) and tuna belly (참치뱃살). Each dish was fresh, beautifully plated, and generously portioned.
We also added some sides like calamari noodles, grilled corn cheese, and sushi rice bowls – all of which were delicious.
