First time I went, I was forewarned: No rolls, no cold rice, no ordering for yourself. Sit at the bar, and let the chef give you what's best that day. It was the best sushi experience I've ever had. Even today, after countless visits and after trying the top sushi places in NY (Yasuda, Sushi of Gari and Nobu), nothing compares to the amazing fish at Sasabune. If you go expecting spider rolls, edamame, cold rice and green tea ice cream, then forget it. Go for the fish, and the crab handrolls, and the eel and the uni.
There is no better sushi in LA. It will be an eye opening experience.
Pros: Fish, New tastes, Fish
Cons: Indifferent service
