This sushi place is the best in town.
Raw tuna has an absolutely superb taste. It’s of great quality and has a high turnover rate, ensuring that you can always enjoy fresh sushi. However, one unfortunate aspect is that we don’t take reservations, which means we have to wait for at least 20 minutes.

I had lunch at Sushi Gen, a place where you usually have to wait an hour to an hour and a half. Lately, though, it feels like the waiting time has been getting shorter. Most popular Japanese or BBQ restaurants take one weekday off, and this place is closed on Mondays. Today is Tuesday, so I lined up 30 minutes before opening and ended up being #2 in line. In the past, I would’ve had to arrive at least an hour early to be one of the first two. As always, the quality hasn’t changed at all, and I finished my lunch lightly with just one-third of a bowl of rice.

If you’re looking for authentic sushi in Los Angeles, Sushi Gen should be at the top of your list. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly takes pride in what they serve. We ordered the sashimi deluxe, and it was easily one of the freshest and best-quality sashimi platters I’ve had anywhere in LA. The fish was perfectly cut, flavorful, and incredibly fresh. Service was smooth and well-paced, and the overall experience felt very authentic.

The highest quality sushi in LA! Order the omakase and let the sushi masters work their magic. They'll keep giving you treats until you say no more. Price is reasonable for this level quality. When you order Amiebi you can choose the between fried head or miso soup with head.

Jaw dropping food here! I have eaten a few times, most recently 3 months ago (just catching up on my reviews now). The fish is of incredible quality. The price is reasonable - you can get a full lunch meal for 25-35$. I've never had better nigiri. Be prepared for a line up - get there before they open! And there is a minimum order (I think 25$) if you want to dine here.
