    “I like restaurants with a great atmosphere. The Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel and Nobu are my favorite places to eat in LA – and the house specialties are always the way to go.”-TH

    Fancy place with a very elegant decoration. The staff is really friendly. Try the yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño, the mushroom salad, and for dessert the pistachio souffle.

    Best sushi in Los Angeles. This is the place (if you can afford it). A real treat when and if it is possible to go.

    Celeb hot spot. Yellowtail sashimi is a can't miss, as is the toro tartare. The tuna tacos are also pretty great.

    Pricey but offers extremely superior quality of seafood. Stick to what's on menu if you don't wanna be surprised by the check at the end of meal. Get the miso cured seabass, it's absolutely stellar.

    Great atmosphere and food. Variety of delicious options, however, one must have black cod it is absolutely amazing.

    Get the jalapeno yellowtail sashimi, the fish tacos and the artichoke salad. Pass on the black cod because it's over-hyped and underwhelming.

    The fish is good, but the service is pitiful. One of the worst meals I've had in years. Incorrect orders, long waits for drinks, mistakes on check. Tip: find a less famous but better place to eat.

    Best stealth Happy Hour in LA. $7 cocktails until 9 every night. Plus excellent Nobu bar menu. Try the Peruvian corn edamame too.

    Dine among the stars (think Robert DeNiro, not Alpha Centuri) at this famous eatery that brings sexiness to sushi. It's very pricey - bring your no-limit credit card - but the food is well worth it.

    The food was below average and could not be compared to Nobu in London, the staff was also below average and not what you should expect from such a place...There are many better places in LA.

    I felt that the Wagyu tacos have too much shell. Order the whole lobster that is also off the menu. It's to die for!
