The 24 Best Places For Cheap Sushi In LA

"When you get to Hama, you’ll notice signs warning, “No teriyaki, No tempura, No noodle, No rice alone,” so don’t bring your non-fish-eating friend who orders four rounds of gyoza. Both a la carte and set menus are available at this quiet Little Tokyo bar—the latter including various sashimi, miso soup, and half a California roll for $30. The a la carte offers more wiggle room for sampling, including buttery uni nigiri, some excellent toro, and seared albacore sashimi platter with citrusy ponzu, with prices ranging between $10-14 each. It’s a small space, so get here when they open to avoid long wait times. " - jess basser sanders, brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
