Sushi Sonagi@Gardena ★★★

Fantastic Omakase by Chef Daniel Son (Katsu Sando), bringing out the best of Japanese, Korean, & Californian flavors. Excited to finally try Katsuo w/ Menegi, which was like a nice shot of grass. Shinko (Baby Shad) is also finally in season. Perfect portions. Rice dish is refillable until finished. I love the crispy rice so much that I had 3 refills. Daniel is very humble & down-to-earth. Friendly & enjoyable environment. Teamwork with his wife Janet & sister Annie. $230 per person. 7-8 seats per seating with 2 seatings available. Only opens 3 times a week. Reservations via Tock and is always sold out. Green tea is complimentary. Corkage fee $45 (720 mL). Next to Torimatsu. Free parking in strip mall.
