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.
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!
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)
9824 National Blvd #C, Los Angeles, CA
Widely considered one of the top sushi restaurants in Los Angeles.
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).
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
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
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.
1712 Victory Blvd, Glendale, CA
Traditional sushi in a very unlikely location. Reasonably priced for sushi.
6051 Hollywood Blvd, Ste 105, Los Angeles, CA
Consistently fresh fish. Great scallops. Salmon two-ways is one of their signature dishes. Many regulars.
