we love this place...definitely our favorite in the ventura blvd. area-- and that's saying a lot, with the likes of nozawa just down the street.
This place is for real. Compared to Sushi Nozawa, Matsuhisa, Sushi Sasabune -- this place beats them all. Get the $35 Sushi Omikasa (which basically means "chef's choice"), the one that says "ask your waiter for details." Most people usually order off the special big board menu they bring around, and end up paying a fortune. They also have a $53 Chef's Omikasa which the waitress informed us herself, "takes forever." The $35/person version is a great bargain actually, they start you out with a fresh clam miso soup, then with a appetizer of albacore sashimi, then proceed to go through about 6-7 courses of rounds with 2-3 pieces of the best tasting sushi you've ever had. Some of it is traditional, some of it more modern fusion sushi (in one, they cooked the rice till crispy, then added an spicy tuna paste mix on top with scallions and a jalepeno -- awesome with a little kick); others include king crab sushi and the blue crab roll (both delicious). In the end, it actually filled me up! Other big time sushi places usually leave you wanting more. We even got a bowl of green tea ice cream for dessert. All this for $35/person! Other places I've been to don't even come close to this. Get a reservation, of course. This place is worth it.
