The restaurant made an indelible impression from the moment we entered until the end of our dinner. The hostess was a very polite and sweet girl. The service was also top-notch. The food was beyond praise – the best sushi in Los Angeles. The chefs are amazing, working in perfect harmony, and you can see that. The beautiful interior creates a serene atmosphere. Thank you for such a wonderful new place.
