The Best Sushi Restaurants in Los Angeles, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA

"This bustling Silver Lake izakaya is more of a crowd-pleasing sushi spot with a wide menu that features prepared appetizers and entrees (like age dashi tofu or miso-marinated Chilean sea bass) that appropriately model the Nobu menu. There are even yakitori skewers grilled over charcoal. But the sushi situation is very good, including fresh fish flown in from Japan like nodoguro (the “A5 of whitefish), bluefin toro, and Hokkaido uni. The boisterous surroundings and easy-flowing sake make this more of a celebratory place to enjoy sushi instead of a more staid counter-only omakase situation, and its central location in Silver Lake makes it a good gathering spot for those coming from various parts of the city." - Matthew Kang
