Traditional sushi/sashimi bar (no maki except for the California Roll ). The food was really good especially the eel and the sea urchin . The waitresses and itamaes were quick and super friendly .

Eater

This Little Tokyo restaurant has the appropriate look and feel of a Japanese sushi joint. The value is high, with serious chefs putting out fresh sushi of great variety. Must-order the spicy tuna rol.

Adrian Phillips

Walk in, put your name down, it's a small place that's worth the wait. A delightful sushi experience, big fan of the salmon sashimi , toro sushi , spicy yellowtail roll (cut). Buy the chefs a bud light !

Martial Bénard

Everything you expect from a real sushi bar . Freshest fish and masters at work. The hand rolls are amazing, so tasty in a perfect nori wrap .

Jonny Ahdout

Get everything. Delicious soft shell crab as appetizer . All their fish , hamachi , tuna , toro , snapper , halibut , is incredibly fresh. Best hand rolls I've had in LA (crunchy seaweed , not gigantic). Yum

DailyCandy

Though patrons tend to be sushi purists (no designer rolls here), don’t expect an uptight crowd. Chefs are friendly and the buttery salmon , snapper with sea salt , and yellowtail collar are winners.

Shurideh Joon

Spicy Tuna Handroll is my fav and please try the yellow tail or red sniper (the sniper just melted away on my tongue ) hmmm definitely like music in your mouth ;) the chef 's are amazing !!

Gabriel Puliatti

Intimate sushibar, everyone sits at the bar and has a chef to make what they want to eat. Sushi prices (2 pieces) range between $4 and $9

Julia Park

Amazing sushi , for a decent price as well ! Super authentic experience. Highly recommend.

Patty Gopez

Easily my new favorite sushi joint ! Had the spicy yellowtail , spicy salmon , spicy albacore and the off-menu Obama roll (all handrolls ). UH-mazing!!!

Michael David Davis

It is a $12 minimum for each person, which isn't hard to do. They will also give you sliced oranges if you spend $20 a person. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Get the hand rolls !

Silvia Butta Calice

Best sushi I have ever had. The place is run by Japanese people who know what they are doing! If you are around come here!!

Natalia Krystel

The best sushi i’ve ever eaten is here. Small place. You will usually have to wait for a seat, but so worth it.

Sharon Lee

Always fresh, good quality sushi and sashimi . My favorites are the albacore sashimi and the spicy yellowtail hand roll .

RJ Dugan

Tip: tell everyone it's just okay so we can keep this place a secret. So fresh, so on top of their game.

Sukhjeet

Worth the wait. They validate parking in the Japanese Village Plaza lot on central btw 1st and 2nd. Komasa next door isn't bad if the wait's too long.

Mike Rivas

Any of the hand rolls are to die for, but i can not get enough of the Spicy Salmon hand roll !! Also, you go to do the Albacore sashimi !

Parsa Oloumi

Let's don't talk about how much exceptional here ! The best sushi I've ever tried. Tuna is something else and so good !!!

Murray Stach

No frills, no fuss, just really good sushi and sashimi .

Leigh Gerson

best sushi spot I've been to on any coast.....plus, you might get to converse with some celebrities in this really low key joint

Nina Kin

The eel & avocado sushi melts in your mouth!

Gloria Chin

great soft shell crab , albacore sashimi , red snapper !!

Erica Mack

Spicy hamachi hand roll with avocado is a handful of perfection.

Ellie R

Some of if not the freshest sushi I've ever had

Ricardo Hernandez

Regular sushi , nothing impressive. Prices are a bit high given the quality of the sushi . Service feel rushed.

Claire

Don't go this place. It's wasting time and money. I waited for 2 hours, but their sushi was not special at all. They didn't apologize even though they forgot what I ordered. So mean. This place sucks.

Peggy

Yummy, but they don't publish their prices. Its you are ok with just blindly ordering, this place is great. Spicy Tuna hand roll with shiso leaf.

iLiana v.

Rainbeau

Little Tokyo no-fuss sushi bar

Aileen Rabina

Get the red snapper ! It's the best in L.A.!

Shurideh Joon

The Albacore Tuna Sashimi is the best ;)

Billy Seol

This place is DEFINITELY overhyped. The sushi wasn't exceptionally fantastic, the wait time is really long and turnover is extremely slow, service is sloppy when busy. Not worth your time.

David A

My favorite spot deffinitly try spicy yellow tail handroll , albacore sashimi and the yellow tail collar.

2na
