No. 1 Sushi & Roll

Izakaya Full Moon

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 What a cozy gem! Food, service, & ambiance all 5 stars. Reasonable prices and great quality. We were lucky to get a seat at the bar. Its tiny, so be patient for a seat without a reservation. Better yet, make one.

Santo Silverlake

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 Totally blew my expectations away. I was shocked at the quality and taste- especially the nigiris (yuzu salmon, hamachi choco) and the seared otoro. The rolls were awesome as well, especially since I’m not usually the biggest fan of rolls. Loved the double dragon roll and daruma roll. Really, really...

KOGANE

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 Delicious, just make sure you have a reservation. If you have never done omakase before this is an expensive experience. But the chefs and the service are so good. It starts at 300$ per person so you've been warned.
