The 25 Best Sushi Restaurants In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"When it comes to nigiri, Sushi Takeda is a Little Tokyo jackpot: traditional and luxurious, minus an excessive price tag. Compared to flashier spots like Sushi Kaneyoshi or the crowd-pleasing Sushi Gen, Sushi Takeda’s subdued approach is easy to overlook. Hidden away on Weller Court’s third floor, you’ll find a $110-$120 lunch omakase (dinners range from $180-$300 per person) that’s fairly fancy and ideal for special occasions. Cold towels are dispensed as you watch the chef nimbly shape and then plop pieces of sea bream, saba, and otoro nigiri onto the stone in front of you with the rhythm of a metronome." - garrett snyder, brant cox, cathy park, sylvio martins
