"Beverly Hills has plenty of high-end sushi spots, but Sushi Note Omakase is making the best nigiri in the neighborhood. (Think classic cuts like dry-aged amberjack and scallop with sea salt.) This place is located inside an old hair salon in the Rodeo Collection’s parking garage, and it's not totally unlike one of those secret sushi bars in Tokyo that people make Youtube vlogs about. There are only four counter seats and a handful of quiet tables where you’ll eat a 20-course parade of simple, elegant sushi. A meal here will cost you $190 (excluding the optional $100 wine pairing). The price point feels earned from the second you drive down the parking ramp.
