鮨やまもと / Sushi Yamamoto

Best omakase experience I have ever had. I have tried a lot of omakase in Vegas, LA but this is the best. The price is a bit high ($350/p) but worth every penny.

Chef Yamamoto has a beautiful story to tell and his food reflects it. Thank you so much for the most memorable experience. This used to be Chef Urasawa’s space and it has been preserved. I was so pleased to see that the special wood countertop has not been changed. The food is very special but the alcohol pairing is even more special. So if you are planning to come here, make sure you get the alcohol pairing. It elevates the food to a whole different level. The chef and the staff are extremely gracious and that makes for a phenomenal experience. The Sake is some of the best I have ever had. We started the food with a beautiful barbecued smoky tilefish in a homemade tortilla. It was absolutely delicious and it set the tone for the entire meal. Some of the highlights were the Astrea Caviar Toro, the abalone soup which came after the Awabi-abalone, the kegani-hairy crab, uni-sea urchin, and the A5 Wagyu beef was the most phenomenal beef I have ever had. I was concerned that the food would not be enough to make us full but to my surprise, by the end of the meal we were pretty full. My husband does not enjoy sake so they recommended different wines that he really enjoyed. This was a very expensive dinner, but this is a once in a lifetime experience. I would only ask that chef Yamamoto adds to the courses to justify the price. I highly recommend this restaurant for a very special evening.

Absolutely wonderful. On top of the great food, the chef and staff were extremely kind and friendly. A little hard to spot, it is in two rodeo shopping complex. The elevator to the 2nd floor will take you straight up, there's a sign on the one to use.

Absolutely the best sushi-centered omakase set course! And such wonderful chef & staff. Expensive but worth it!

My favorite sushiya in LA. Best sushi best chef best service. Always a good experience.

Worth 7 stars Omakase experience. It was such an unforgettable experience. My friend and I cried at chef Yusuke san’s outstanding Omakase course. His best friend Teppei san is the best sommelier that I’ve ever met. Chef Kazu san’s soba is also amazing too! Definitely my most favorite restaurant in the world. Although it’s all Omakase style , “ Enzo Roll “ is a must try after your course, seems a secret menu. I’m sure they will receive at least 2 stars Michelin or maybe 3 stars in the future. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

What an amazing experience. Highly recommend omakase sake pairing option

Do not miss !!! Amazing!!!
