West LA

If you had a Venn diagram of Santa Monica, Venice, Culver City, Westwood, and Mid-city LA, the overlapping portion right at the center would be West LA. This neighborhood has an ever-increasing list of hip and trendy offerings while continuing to maintain many of the classic establishments that have made it a destination for over half a century. Because of its central location amid so many iconic LA neighborhoods, West LA benefits from the spilling over of influences from its various neighbors without succumbing to the stigma of hype that has engulfed so many desirable areas of Los Angeles.

In LA we usually try to avoid restaurants in characterless strip malls, but once in a while, a place like this pops up and forces you to make an exception. This is not your typical LA hole-in-the-wall Sushi joint. Decorated with a clean, modern, Zen sensibility, this more upscale dining option is where you go when you want to make Sushi more of an event. The menu is loaded with innovative and elegant takes on all your favorite Sushi fare as well as a great selection of small plates and hot food. If you’re in the mood to splurge, try their Omakase, which means you leave it up to the chef to create a delightful seven course adventure.
