The best sushi experience I’ve ever had. Chef Hilo is so kind and really makes the experience with his humor and clear love for what he does. I can’t wait to go back.

Was going with my sister to her appointment at a near by office. She was hungry and wanted something light to eat, so sushi seemed like the perfect choice. Being our first time, we didn’t know there were no menus and it was the chef’s selection. I don’t this guy, we were walking out the door and almost left, BUT, so glad we didn’t because it was amazing! Incredibly unique and delicious food, along with an entertaining education while enjoying our meal. The owners a good guy who takes a tremendous amount of pride in what he prepares for his guests. You’ll love it!

Chef Hilo is back at it again! My second Omakase experience with him. I'm still speechless. Also with everything I've been reading regarding sushi and parasites, I recently learned something new. Chef Hilo only prepares and serves Wild Fish. Many sushi restaurants serve farm raised fish, which can carry the parasites everyone is writing about. I'll be back soon!

I'm speechless about this place. Chef Hilo pushes boundaries and I LOVE IT. I brought my amazing girlfriend here for her 24th birthday and man, was it an experience like no other omakase sushi spot. I emphasize on pushing boundaries because the chef prides himself on innovation and creativity. You can even say there are hints of gastronomy in his food. It's very comparable to fine art. We went with the 24 course omakase B menu, their top of the line premium choice. It was the best $250 a person meal we've ever had. I'll let the pictures tell the story. All I can say is that with Chef Hilo, fine details matter. Ask him about the special rice that he sourced from the snowy rice fields in Japan. It took him 3 years to source it and only a select number of restaurants are recognized to even carry it in their restaurant.The service was top notch. I felt like I paid for a Michelin Star restaurant. I will most definitely be coming back. I want everyone I know to have an experience like this. It is THAT GOOD. From the decor down to the design of the dishes, Chef Hilo has created the modern form of edible art.

Ambiance: From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the restaurant's chic and contemporary design. The elegant Japanese-inspired decor, featuring warm wood accents and subtle lighting, creates an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're dining with friends, family, or a special someone, Hilo Sushi sets the perfect stage for a memorable meal. You can choose from Omakase A or Omakase B, for lunch or dinner at the sushi bar. If you want to order from the menu, booking a table is the way to go. Service: Hilo is a master! He made our dining experience truly exceptional. From offering expert recommendations to explaining the nuances of each dish, he went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcomed and well-informed throughout the meal. It probably didn't hurt that my dining companion was close friends with him! He taught me something about my beloved Uni that I was unaware of. Let's say I'm only eating Uni with Hilo now. Each piece of sushi was prepared with precision and dedication to quality. Come hungry as each piece keeps getting better.Cuisine: Although we were too full to indulge in dessert, we didn't want the meal to end, so we had Hilo's insane Matcha Tea. WHAT DID HE DO TO IT?? I can not tell you, but it will be the best you have ever tasted.Overall: Hilo Sushi in Beverly Hills is more than just a restaurant; it's an experience. With its impeccable ambiance, attentive service, and exquisite cuisine, it's a culinary journey that should not be missed. Whether you're a sushi aficionado or simply looking for an exceptional dining experience, Hilo Sushi exceeds all expectations. This hidden gem in Beverly Hills has certainly earned its place on my list of favorite dining spots, and I can't wait to return for another unforgettable meal.

Chef Hilo puts together an experience of a lifetime!Yes, this is a full experience, not just a meal. The pace, the background music, and the lessons in what Hilo is serving us, are all intentional and executed perfectly.As a bonus, Chef Hilo is a pretty funny and joyful guy!10/10
If you are looking for quality sushi and a nice quaint spot on Beverly drive you found this place. Yes it might be a little pricey but when you eat the food and choose from their very unique select sake menu you'll understand why. I've never seen a sake menu that includes the type of selection and variation as they do. They have unique bottles that are few and rare which is amazing. Chef Hilo was there and soon you realize that this gem of a spot that has been here for years is passed through culinary expertise. They have omakase, but we did a La cart. They have a good selection of food that is curated for the sushi lovers. If you understand sushi I won't have to tell you what to try. But do try the uni shooter and the oysters they had. Other than that all their sashimi was delicious and melted in your mouth. The service was fantastic and I loved their presentation of food and how it came out. I would come here again. It's a great spot and has great food.

When it comes to Omakase, Hilo stole my heart today. I’ve indulged and have had some of the best Sushi Los Angeles has to-offer both Omakase and À la cart. But Chef Hilo took it to the next level with his artistic touch and flavors that can only be described by the experience itself. The Japanese Red Snapper, trio Oysters, Hawaiian Kahala and pretty much everything he served still has me wanting more! Even offering Sapporo on draft!!

This is as good as it gets. The chef is a master. He hails from Hawaii and he is the real deal. This is a peaceful and elegant establishment that is all about the food. If Michelin gave 4 stars, Hilo should the first to receive them. The tasting menu is amazing.
