I would love to give this place a perfect score. It has excellent food that tastes of authenticity. They need to do something about lighting and flooring. That's all. It would make a huge difference to the ambience, and probably isn't such a huge investment. It's enough to keep you from going there for a special event, but don't let it be enough to keep you from going for a fantastic meal, and a fantastic time.
My favorite sushi spot in all of LA (updated because Google maps asked me to, this is my favorite sushi spot in all of the world )
最高の食材、最高の技術、そして最高のおもてなし、どれをとっても最高です。 堅苦しい雰囲気ではなく笑顔が絶えないそして何よりひとつひとつのお鮨をじっくり味わえるのがまたいいです! また是非行きたいお店です。
There is expensive and then there is too expensive. Everything is Delicious. But simply overpriced. As in double the price of what other nice sushi / steak places charge.
Just quality food, nothing fancy.
