I’ve had Sugarfish in Pasadena and it was as pretty good and this spot is just as good or better.
I ordered “Don’t think, just eat” option and added about three different dishes that weren’t in my meal option. All the sushi pieces were ever fresh and delicious. The proportions are on point and the flavors are phenomenal.
I’d definitely come back here again and try their other menu items. Overall it was we a solid dining experience.
Parking is very limited & you’d be lucky to find some on the street or you can get nearby paid parking.
Hands down the best sushi I have eaten and I was extremely impressed. Also, excellent value for money. I was absolutely stuffed by the end of it. The crab hand roll and scallop sushi were divine. I am still dreaming about this meal and have told everyone! It will become a new tradition where every time I come to LA, I need to come and eat the Nozawa Trust Me set.
What an experience! I have been trying to come here for years, and so glad I did! Melt in your mouth, freshest, tastiest sushi I’ve ever had! Waitress were super sweet & knowledgeable. Price is also very reasonable compared to other chain sushi restaurants. Will be back for date night!!
There wasn’t a wait when I went but midday around 12 gets pretty crowded so be sure to bear the rush. Restaurant is quaint and small but fun and nice decorations. Overall a great vibe and the food was good. I’d definitely come back in the future. It’s on the pricier end but pretty good
This is a five star sushi experience and the price to prove it. Sushi was of excellent quality prepared to perfection. If you’re not too hungry the Nozawa Trust Me is enough to feed two people. I’d recommend this place as long as you’re willing to eat the price.
Sushi-only. An unexpected gem in LA, offering quality sashimi and sushi like toro and sea urchin at a great price point.
This is, without question, the best sushi restaurant I have ever visited. The tenets of nozawa style sushi as described on the menu absolutely ring true. The fish was phenomenal in texture and flavor - the salmon melted in my mouth like butter! The sake was also a great deal. My friend and I each had a Trust Me - I agree with the staff recommendation to have at least one of these. The entire meal was filling and an extremely fair price for a mini-omakase experience.
Really enjoyed the sushi. Everything was fresh and flavorful, the waiter (I think his name was Kai) did a great job explaining each course and even which sake to pair with it. It's only 4 stars because we went around 7pm and it was very dark in the restaurant... It was hard for some of our party to see the menu and what they were eating. Other than that, 5/5, will be back!
Stumbled upon this place just looking for a sushi restaurant near me, and WOW so glad I did. I don't mean to sound hyperbolic, but this was the best sushi I've ever had. The fish just seemed to melt in your mouth. The menu is small but it's because they've perfected their limited items. Such an unexpectedly amazing experience. Highly recommend.
Yummy evening overall. Sushi rice batch a bit too fluffy-soft, and sushi vinegar used in the batch made the rice noticeably off balance. Portion of rice to cut also excessive. Would have preferred less rice. Not sure the fusion dish at the end of the tasting course made sense, I liked that the least.
However, the experience was still really good by general standards, so I didn't feel like it was enough to demote a rating for it.
The ambience was spacious but still felt cosy, interiors sleek but of contemporary class. LIghting was very lowly lit, very intimate dining experience.
Quality of the fish and sea life very very good though. Would chance another visit.
