Shunji@West LA★★★

The Ultimate Place for Omakase in LA. Elegant authentic presentation. Love their appetizers. The Omakase is about $120-$150, depending on what you order. Japanese Style Tasting is $100. Sushi Plate was $50. We ordered the Omakase (everyone in the table has to order the same thing), and it turned out to be $123.25 per person for the food. Got a little something from the house for the birthday girl in our table. Service was great. Pleasant and delightful experience.
