Sushi Arata 스시 아라타

Red-vinegar rice (akazu shari) and restrained seasoning keep each piece easy through a long course. Between sashimi and nigiri come skewered bites, chutoro (medium-fatty tuna) and a fat futomaki roll, and portions run generous overall. Staff ask midway how much rice and sauce suits you, and late in the course you can request a repeat of a favorite piece. The basement-level room in Yeouido takes only two parties at a time, which keeps it quiet. Pricing sits in the upper-middle range, with a lunch omakase and a sake pairing available.
