Kojima Seoul

Kojima sits on Dosan-daero in the Gangnam District. It is a fifteen-minute walk from the Hyundai Department Store. The restaurant holds two Michelin stars and is ranked no. 27 on La Liste.

The room runs smart and elegant, serving Japanese seafood and sushi. While the city’s dining scene often leans into the high-volume noise of the surrounding towers, Kojima rejects that intensity entirely. Choosing this space over the more frantic, trend-focused sushi counters nearby is a decision to prioritize calm and technical precision. It is the antithesis of a casual neighborhood drop-in, favoring a meditative pace that makes the trek through Gangnam worthwhile for those who value focus over spectacle.
