You’ll find this Brentwood favorite in an unassuming Wilshire office building. After relocating further west from its original Sawtelle location, this sushi establishment now has more room in its new spacious and airy environ. Grab a seat at the bar to watch the sushi chefs do their thing. They only serve sushi and sashimi here; pure and simple raw fish.
