Mori (; ) is an upscale dining establishment located in Haeundae District, Busan, South Korea, that focuses on Japanese culinary arts, with a particular emphasis on kaiseki—a traditional multi-course dining style. In 2024, the restaurant received its inaugural Michelin star.
Chef Kim Wan-kyu, having gained experience in Korea, pursued further training at the Tokyo Sushi and Cuisine School in Japan. He then returned to Korea at the age of 35 to launch Mori alongside his Japanese spouse. The restaurant's name is said to be a tribute to Kim's wife. Mori’s offerings highlight Busan’s celebrated seafood and seasonal produce, featuring a dynamic menu that changes regularly to provide distinctive dining occasions with each visit.
