The service was HORRIBLE. We went one night and they were completely out of live fish and told us you'll have to come back the next day. We asked what comes when you order hwae, and asked if it comes with side dishes. The lady said yes. So we go the next day, order the hwae. Asked about side dishes and the younger guy at the counter says it doesn't come with side dishes in a condescending way. And we had to ASK for the free fish soup that comes with it. Which was premade, and they don't give you the pieces that are leftover from the hwae you ordered. Avoid this place and the younger guy needs to really change his attitude. He had this "I don't care" attitude and talked to us in a condescending manner. read more

We walked in and there was nobody to acknowledge us for a while. I wasn't sure if we seat ourselves or wait to be seated. A lady from behind the counter finally noticed us and directed us to sit at a certain table. Menu is on the table so she came by to take out order. There's not very many pictures to reference the size. The chef's choice sashimi platter range from $39.99 to $119.99. I had to pull up Yelp photos and with the help of the server, we ordered the medium platter for $59.99. As we waited, we were given a plate containing edamame and what appears to be fried pieces of fish skin. It was unexpected and tasty. The sashimi platter was fresh and contained a nice variety of fish and other seafood. I was surprised to see octopus and clams. It was served on a bed of radish, which I love, with sliced jalapeños and garlic on the side. There's no question the seafood is fresh here. They have tanks in the front containing lobsters in the front. The tanks are clean and there's no funky odors. This place is very traditional. Service was adequate. They have a self serve station where you can get your own water from a water cooler and additional silverware, sauce cups, and napkins. Took my niece here for a birthday dinner of her choice. It's right by Paris Baguette and she's always been intrigued by it. She thought it was just ok. Overall, I think it's a nice place to get fresh seafood but it's not a place I see myself coming back to. read more

This is a small hole in the wall setup, run by the owner and a minimum crew. Similar to other Korean self-serve places in the area, don't expect much service. You do some legwork to keep the prices down. The place smells clean and the fish looks and tastes fresh. I ordered the $59.99 sashimi platter. It is a decent mix of fishes but that mix is likely going to change each week depending on the catch. Many of the seafood items are market priced and not clearly stated. So, be sure to check the price and the weight of the item you are planning to order first. In a similar place that offers live seafood, I normally follow the staff to the tank/scale and check out the condition and weight of the catch before committing to it. That way, there is less surprise when it comes to your table. I actually prefer previously frozen sashimi over live ones because some fishes are known to carry a large number of parasites that are difficult to remove. (e.g. Salmon) read more

Sea Travel - $59.99 Sashimi platter - Seafood Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

This is a Korean seafood restaurant that specialize in live seafood. When you walk in, you will be greeted with oceany smell of the aquarium tanks and see a small hallway, which is all of the restaurant. There are only about 6 tables. Now, expect fresh quality seafood at a reasonable price but do not expect lavishing side dishes to come with it. This place specializes in seafood only, so the items are limited to what fresh seafood they have in stock that day and not much else besides small options of sushi. Most things are self serve such as water, unlimited miso soup, and silverwares. I've had various sashimis here including abalone, sea squirt, gwaengo, sea cucumber, etc. and because they are so fresh, it doesn't taste fishy and it's top notch quality! Fresh seafood Korean restaurant is extremely hard to come by in this area and this is the only one in DFW that I know of. The business seems to do well and I hope more places like this open in the DFW area and compete for quality side dishes as well. read more

Was very excited to try this place for Korean style sashimi. Sadly they just missed the mark on so many levels. First, when I walked in I asked for a table in the back. She asked why, I advised we had a party of 7. The waitress/owner(?) said she would have to clean it. Which, ok? Does this mean you don't want us to dine in or what? Then asked if we had a reservation? There was one other table occupied, wtf do we need a reservation for? Anyways, they accommodated our party but then had an attitude when she realized 3 of the 7 were kids. She said "you'll have to eat quickly, then". I asked why, she said we were occupying more space than we were ordering for and that she expected a dinner rush. I asked if she didn't want our business but she must have not heard or ignored me as she walked to the back. And no, this wasn't a disconnect in language because I am fluent in Korean. We ordered a large omakase, an order of raw shrimp, an udon, fried shrimp tempura and steamed lobster. So, even with 3 of the 7 being kids, we ordered plenty of food to be treated with respect. And again, the rest of the place was empty. The omakase was fine, but I felt like they gave us mostly end pieces. We also didn't get any of the fish soup that usually accompanies the large platters. The fish was pretty fresh tasting but I had a couple frozen/icy pieces so it makes me wonder how fresh it actually was. Service got better. Until the lobster came out. They were out of butter, not sure how and why she wouldn't have told us when we specifically asked if they had butter before we ordered. The lobster was very rubbery due to being over cooked. And the mind blowing kicker...market price was $149!? Didn't disclose how many pounds or anything, just showed up as "1 lobster steamed" on the bill. At this point I definitely didn't feel like arguing with the already rude ass lady so we just paid and left. Needless to say, I won't be back. read more

This new establishment is great if you want to quickly get a sashimi platter. We did online order for chef's choice platter, medium size and a bunch of sushi rolls. The sashimi platter was amazing, the raw meat is top of quality and well packaged for to-go. There are some seats in the restaurant too if you're lucky. The platter also came with some soup for two which has the rest of the fish in it. You'll find garlic and jalapeños with the platter but no lettuce, though you can buy a pack in the shop for $9. The sushi rolls were a little disappointing; the rice tasted a little rough and old, and the imitation crab meat wasn't the best. However, we haven't tried everything in this little shop, there's lots crab options and even live octopus. It sure smelled great when we entered. read more

Live Gwang-eo is very fresh and price is reasonable ($70, M) and it's enough for 2 ppl. H mart sells $80-90 for minimum but here you can get same portions with cheaper and free spicy soup too which is small but it's enough after finishing raw sashimi because sashimi will make you very full already. Also soju is pretty cheap too. Highly recommended!!!! read more

My husband says when you enter the restaurant and it doesn't smell like fish. This is a good sign. Yes the sashimi was fresh! Fish fly in Wednesday so best to go Thursday after the fish calm down lol. Large portions with seaweed side and special garlic miso sauce housemade. The stew they make is a bit spicy and salty. Perhaps msg? Their menu doesn't have much kids options. I ordered edamame and udon for my daughter and it was average. Service was fine. read more

Ordered snapper sashimi 2weeks ago. Overall quality and the size was good so ordered snapper sashimi today again. However the size was half of previous order and there was no clams as side dish but the price is same, $59.99. The owner didn't say anything for the size and the clams. Not sure why they are cheating customer. Be careful, not recommend at all. read more

After trying this place, husband compares all other sashimi to this high standard of freshness. Friendly staff and clean location. The seafood salad noodle is refreshing too. read more

Called to order a medium and for pick up after confirming what all is provided with it. But after we came home we realized spicy fish soup and chopped up peppers and garlic were missing. Called them again and a guy picked up this time. I let him know what all were missing, but he had this "okay so what?" attitude. No apology or any intention of remedying the problem what so ever.. then I hear the lady in the back (the same woman I spoke to when I ordered) telling him to tell us they will provide it to us if we come back next time and he reiterates it to us. Well of course it will be provided next time because the soup is included with the set.. But why would I come back and spend money again here just to get fish soup which I already paid for? And he said nothing. I asked him even if we come back how would you know or remember, cus they don't have our names or anything and he's like uh just tell us we forgot some items last time. he didn't seem like he cared at all. I asked him is it possible to have it now, and they said we can come pick it up. At that point it's like 20 mins away thats another 40 min round trip and it wasn't worth it so I just said forget it. Also for a medium they don't give you enough soy sauce, bean paste, and . read more

The picking is slim out here. For now this is the best you are going to get. They sell out quick on some stuff so make sure to call in ahead of time. Small dining area that just serves the fish no sides like in LA so dont go in with that mentality thinking you will get this awesome spread because you wont. Price is fair and the fish is good. I prefer this place than any sushi spot nearby. read more

Love how fresh the seafood is! Definitely will go back and try their lobster!! Love the uni

We got take out on a busy day- you go get a small seafood soup on the side. We ordered the medium sashimi and was a little disappointed. We looked at reviews and pictures before ordering but our pieces were very small but fresh. What we learned was - don't order the mix- actually order what you want sometimes they get you with the cheaper end stuff but still charge you the full 60 for prices that aren't worth it. We will try again with a different set before writing it off! read more

It's a cute small joint next to Hmart and Paris Baguette. It's only run by the husband and wife so they can get backed up fairly easy. I would suggest ordering by phone so you don't have to wait. I ordered the larger sashimi platter and few additions. Overall the fish was a clean taste, presentation wasn't anything super special, but got the job done. For spending $175 for everything it was okay. The owner was nice even though he got slammed. Give them a try! read more

Seafood was sooo fresh. I got a sashimi platter and it was the best I've had and at such a great price. They have crabs, fish, and other seafood fresh in a tank for you to choose from as well. They also don't always have everything available so definitely call to see what's on hand read more
