Sushi Tomoki@Studio City ★★★

New Sushi Restaurant in Studio City. Handcrafted sushi with attention to detail. Small bites sushi. Great selection of sake from Fifth Taste. Ohmine 3 Grain Sake was refreshing and fruity. Paired well with everything. Itamae Sushi Chef Tomoki-san came from Enya Beverly Hills. He is originally from Gifu, Japan. Nice and friendly. Happy to see our favorite kappo chef, Makoto-san from Wadatsumi Beverly Hills, working there as assistant chef as well. Sushi bar not yet fully opened. We were fortunate to be the only 2 arranged to sit at sushi bar. Take Omakase we had was $150 per person. Comes with Appetizer, Sashimi, 8 pieces of Sushi, & Special Hand Roll. There will also be a $200 Matsu Omakase available soon, when they fully open. Hot tea $3. Reservations available via OpenTable (highly recommended).
