"Sushi Zo's decor is a little reminiscent of a clinical, haute strip mall, but you’re here for the stellar sushi, not the design. Omakase is the rule here, with no exceptions—so ordering is a question of how much you're willing to eat and spend. While the tasting menu is rooted in the classics, it has a few curveballs, like ponzu-dressed oyster to start, baby abalone, and Hokkaido uni, instead of the standard harvested off Santa Barbara. Zo has a devoted following and many boosters, for good reason." - Hugh Garvey, Krista Simmons, Maxwell Williams
