Sushi-en-Jun

스시엔준 The name reads as 'Sushi en Jun' — sushi plus 'Jun', which also names the house sets (Jun Lunch, Jun Special); the posts do not say who or what Jun is.

Compiled from 19 blog posts read in fullSources →

A small sushi shop on a side street near Hongik University Station, at 198 Donggyo-ro (Taeyang Building, unit 102), Mapo-gu. The draw is the weekday-only Jun Lunch: eight pieces of sushi with salad and miso soup, a croquette, and cold soba in summer or udon in winter. The ten-piece Today's Sushi set is 14,500 won, and the mixed raw-fish rice bowl was 11,000 won in February 2025. Posts from December 2025 to January 2026 put the Jun Lunch at 12,000 won; posts from July and August 2026 say 13,000 won. We read 19 posts from February 2025 to September 2026, and all 19 describe an actual visit.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.

What sets it apart

  1. Three posts said the rice under the sushi is small. Two liked it that way; one suggested adding a side dish if you are hungry.
  2. Four posts found the portions generous and two found them small. Three of the four ate the raw-fish rice bowl and were surprised by how big the bowl was; both who found it small had the Today's Sushi set.
  3. Eight posts called the room small. The three that counted seats counted differently: two four-tops and five two-tops; five four-tops and two bar seats; or four four-tops, two two-tops and about three window bar seats.
  4. Three posts came alone and used the window bar seats; one liked that the bar faces outside. Three came with friends, three with a partner or spouse, one with a parent, and one with five coworkers.

  1. Lunch fills up fast. Two posts saw a line form — one arrived around 12:10, just got a seat, and watched people start waiting. Three did not wait: a group of five at 1 p.m., a pair around 11:40, and one weekday lunch with every table full. One post said only that any wait was short.
  2. Five posts walked from the station; four said about five minutes from Hongik University Station exit 2. One gave exit 8 instead.
  3. Five posts found the owner and staff friendly — one was offered a two-top while dining alone, another liked that service stayed unobtrusive even when the room was full.
  4. One post says the owner once ran an izakaya called Hanashi near Dunchon-dong Station before moving to Hongdae and opening this sushi shop, and found the food unchanged after nearly ten years. Only that post mentions it, and it happened long before the period we read.

Where it is

Map showing where Sushi-en-Jun is

We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.

From the station

Five posts walked from the station; four said about five minutes from Hongik University Station exit 2. One gave exit 8 instead.

Getting inside

No post described the floor from experience; only the address says ground floor, and we do not know whether there are steps on the way in.

No post said whether there is a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in — not that there is none, just that nobody wrote about it. Eight posts called the room small.

No post mentioned the toilet — where it is or whether it is separated by gender. We do not know.

No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

What we do not know

  • Prices have gone up. Three posts from December 2025 to January 2026 put the Jun Lunch at 12,000 won; two from July and August 2026 say 13,000 won, and the August writer remembered paying 11,000 won the year before. No post called a meal expensive, and six called it good value. One post found a bowl listed at 12,000 won on Naver but 14,000 won on the menu board.
  • Accounts of the atmosphere split one to one: one post found it quiet even at lunch, another said it felt more like a quick in-and-out lunch spot than a quiet meal.
  • Eight posts listed opening hours, all copied from the listing: mostly 11:30-21:30 with a 15:00-17:00 break and last order at 21:00, and five said closed Sundays. One said open daily and one said until 22:30. Two posts noted the lunch sets are weekdays only.
  • Four posts gave the phone number as 0507-1369-2331 and one as 02-332-2331, all copied from the listing. No post said anything about reservations.
