Sushi Go 55

We placed a Togo order for a delightful variety of dishes at this Japanese restaurant located in downtown LA. It happens to be one of my brother's favorite places, and he was determined to welcome me with a special dinner from here, despite the crazy Friday traffic in the area. Arriving a little early, we patiently waited for them to open at exactly 5:00 pm. Since our order was quite substantial, they kindly brought the food to our car in the parking structure. My generous brother left a big tip for both the waitress and the person who delivered the food. The entire family thoroughly enjoyed the meal. I opted for the chirashi, which was a generous portion of fresh sashimi, rice, and a variety of veggies. It paired perfectly with my niece's favorite beer, Allagash Curieux, which I found to be excellent. Later, we also indulged in some sake. The gathering was filled with heartwarming conversations and scrumptious food, making it a truly cherished moment for all of us. Such experiences remind us of the joy of family gatherings and the simple pleasures of life.

My wife and I have been dining here for years (mostly dinner) and we like the Unaju (pictured) and Chirashi Bowl. Always a pleasant experience with nice staff, delicious and good size food, casual and calm atmosphere, and fair prices. Parking is easy because we park at the Mall and get ticket validated. 1-2 blocks from the main Little Tokyo / Japanese Village Plaza. Easy walk.

Great lunch spot. Their chirashi hits the spot—good portions, good cuts, and comes with miso soup and little side dishes. There was no line when I came at 1pm on a Wednesday. Parking validation provided. It’s inside on the 3rd floor and either they don’t have a sign or the neon doesn’t work, so it’s easy to miss.

I used to come here like 4 years ago. It’s still just as good as I remember. A hidden gem in little Tokyo mall. One of the best chirashi in LA. I got the regular chirashi and my girlfriend got the deluxe which included uni. Our server was attentive and friendly. Before Covid this used to be a busy spot but there weren’t too many people at all for dinner on Sunday night.

A very traditional Japanese restaurant inside the mall at the top floor. They are known for their Chirashi Bento Boxes and that is what we went with. We ended up getting the Chirashi Take and Chirashi Matsu. The Matsu has some additional seafood including scallops, sea urchin and roe. It was really fresh and presented nicely! The service was good and attentive as well. Glad we tried out this simple and humble spot!

Took a friend for an impromptu omakase lunch at the sushi bar. Pretty much a tasting menu of their today’s special/fresh catches. Super fatty toro, and tried some that are usually rarely appeared on the menu. Love it! Very good quality & freshness. Their marinated mushroom was soo naturally sweet (no sugar added). $140 per person (this price might change based on type of fishes available. It’s comparable to those more famous omakase joint. Just that you are not paying extra for the decoration. This is a cozy family run old school goodness. Oh and their house made wasabi/scalllion sauce is so good I wish I could buy some to take home!
