Asuka Reviews
❤❤❤ good vibe, good food
Asuka delivers a refined omakase-style experience with beautiful presentation and high-quality fish. The sashimi course was especially fresh and thoughtfully plated, and several small bites throughout the meal were genuinely memorable. The atmosphere feels intimate and upscale without being overly formal, making it a great spot for a date night or special dinner in Westwood.

This place is a neighborhood gem. Very high quality and delicious sushi and excellent friendly service. My family came in for a quick dinner, and decided to try out this place for the first time. We usually go to Sawtelle. We will definitely come back.
