1401 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica, CA
Less traditional, more Americanized sushi, but a solid choice for the area, and there are many devotees. Very scene-y, too.
11301 W Olympic Blvd Ste 102, Los Angeles, CA
The owner takes great care in the fish he selects, even using Copper River salmon in season. Presentations are first-rate. Plus, he's a sake sommelier of sorts
8539 W Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, CA
Many loyal followers at this WeHo mini mall hidden gem. Very traditional Japanese dishes only (even though the chef/owner is Korean).
11288 Ventura Blvd Ste C, Studio City, CA
Nozawa is known for being the "sushi Nazi" because rumor has it he will kick anyone out who tries to order a California roll!
9824 National Blvd #C, Los Angeles, CA
Widely considered one of the top sushi restaurants in Los Angeles.
6051 Hollywood Blvd, Ste 105, Los Angeles, CA
Consistently fresh fish. Great scallops. Salmon two-ways is one of their signature dishes. Many regulars.
1712 Victory Blvd, Glendale, CA
Traditional sushi in a very unlikely location. Reasonably priced for sushi.
22706 Pacific Coast Highway, Malibu, CA
The Nobu name still carries a lot of cache. Tons of celeb clients who can afford his top quality dishes.
265 S. Robertson Blvd., Beverly Hills, CA
Sleeper hit on Robertson for ultra-fresh fish and creative presentations. J. Gold outted it a couple years ago, but the fervor has died down--the food quality
218 N Rodeo Dr, Beverly Hills, CA
This is mecca for L.A. sushi lovers. Omakase-only, a meal here will set you back $300 (at least), but there is nothing else like it this side of Masa (in NYC)
