Kaiseki Motoishi@Beverly Hills ★★★

Wow. Fantastic Traditional Kaiseki Experience at counter. Exquisite presentation. Absolutely delicious. Super friendly & welcoming environment. Kazu-san's culinary skills were absolutely amazing. Last Rice Dish Nanatsuboshi was like a much elevated version of TKG (Tamago Kake Gohan) and was refillable. Yamato-san (owner of Sushi Yamamoto, Sushi Kisen, & Tonchinkan) was cooking as well. Love our server Mino-san from Sushi Kisen. My top 3 Kaiseki are now n/naka, Hayato, & Kaiseki Motoishi. Everyone (all super foodies) became friends by the end of the dinner. Realized that we were all connected, especially through Shunji-san. $350 per person. Corkage $50 per 750mL. Complimentary filtered water available. Self-parking $10 at lot. Pop-ups on Sunday & Monday nights at Sushi Yamamoto. Soba lunch pop-ups on Sundays. DM @kaiseki.motoishi to book.
