Sushi restaurant · Harbor Gateway

@infatuation

"An old guard of the South Bay sushi scene, Kanpachi dates all the way back to 1978, an era when Japanese businessmen from the nearby Honda and Toyota plants made up the bulk of customers. These days, the restaurant is located in a strip mall on the Torrance/Gardena border and chances are you’ll see at least one regular chatting up the sushi chef at the bar on your visit. And despite decades of inflation, the prices here probably haven’t changed as much as you’d think since they first opened: during lunch or dinner, $49 gets you an omakase that comes with 14 pieces of nigiri, miso soup, chawanmushi, and a scoop of ice cream. There are also a few lunch specials like a sashimi plate or unagi bowl that hover around $20, too." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder
