Opus Sushi

I am no avid fan of sushi; I typically avoid Asian cuisine. However, my friends wanted to try sushi while we were in LA so I volunteered to go. Based off their reactions, I would say the sushi was pretty good here. I enjoyed the hurricane roll pictured here. It was so crunchy and the sauces were great.

I loved how their sushi has half the rice than most other place. Allows you to really taste and appreciate the fish and not be too full, so you can try more! Warning: Dishes are smaller than they look in the pictures. Not too impressed with sweet shrimp though. After having one that was still kicking at a different restaurant, nothing can beat that.

The Omakase for couple was fantastic because it's rare to find lobster sashimi. That alone is worth the ticket and everything was fluff. The first course is the fish sperm that I could skip. The carpaccio of death was the second course. Don't let them serve that. It tasted like death. Went back another day for a nigiri session. They were all pretty decent. Due to the location the price is higher than other joints in Little Tokyo. Some fusion dishes were pleasant to the taste buds. Definitely not the best sushi I have had but this close to home, sometimes this place is a quick fix when I'm looking for some quality. Definitely choose the omakase if you're going.
