The 25 Best Sushi Restaurants In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"A relative newcomer in the SGV, Kisen is run by a chef who spent years at Sushi Gen and Shiki in Beverly Hills. Dedication to detail is apparent in the balanced vinegar-seasoned rice and pristine seafood that has been aged in traditional Edomae style, highlighting seasonal fish like skipjack tuna and goldeneye snapper from Japan. There’s an $80 minimum to sit at the bar, but spending that much will net you a royal meal and the focus of whichever chef is slicing the goods. Otherwise, opt for sushi sets that go for around $20 at lunch and $40 at dinner." - garrett snyder, brant cox, cathy park, sylvio martins
