Easily one of the very best sushi places I have been to here or in Japan. We went for a birthday dinner and chose the Omakase (option 2). It was an incredibly well balanced meal including many of our favorites. The quality is just perfect. Temperature, freshness, taste, everything from the fish to the rice, toppings and soy sauce.
The service is super good, such a friendly staff. chefs and owner. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back.

From the moment we stepped into Sushi Tomoki, we were greeted with a warm welcome that set the stage for what would become an unforgettable dining experience. The modern interior and vibrant atmosphere perfectly complemented the culinary journey that awaited us.
We opted for the Omakase UME No 1 ($80) and were treated to a meticulously crafted progression of courses. The experience began with exquisite Akame Toro sashimi that simply melted in our mouths - the freshness was remarkable! This was followed by 10 pieces of expertly prepared sushi, each piece showcasing the chef's dedication to quality and technique.
The hand roll was a particular standout - perfectly crisp nori wrapped around warm rice and the freshest fish. The meal was complemented by a soothing miso soup that provided a wonderful balance to the rich flavors of the sushi.
The seared salmon roll with truffle was an unexpected highlight - the delicate sear enhancing the buttery salmon while the truffle added a luxurious earthiness that elevated the entire dish.
To accompany our meal, we enjoyed Asahi on draft - crisp, refreshing, and the perfect partner to the delicate flavors of the fish.
Just when we thought the experience couldn't get any better, dessert arrived and absolutely made our night! A divine mixture of lychee and yuzu ice cream served with green tea mochi provided the perfect sweet finale to our meal.
The restaurant was buzzing with other diners clearly enjoying their meals as much as we were, creating a lively yet intimate atmosphere.
If you're looking for an authentic, high-quality omakase experience that delivers on every level, Sushi Tomoki is a must-visit. The attention to detail, quality of ingredients, and warm service make this place truly special.
Don’t forget to make a resy!

Had omakase 1 for dinner and each bite of the sushi were so delicious. Every single thing was practically melting in my mouth. No photo was taken as we were so hungry. We will definitely come back again. I highly recommend this place.

Went with the besties but but romantic vibes. Will be back with boo.
This is absolutely my favorite sushi restaurant in LA and I have been back now 10 times. I have lived here for 3 years and was looking for a fresh, well made sushi joint and finally found it. The owner is so kind and welcomes you upon walking in. I always get the miso soup, crispy rice and albacore fried onion roll. Everything is cooked to perfection and so flavorful. The ambiance is lovely with 1950s jazz playing and quick service. I cannot give this restaurant enough praise. Highly recommend!!

Everything was perfect! I chose this restaurant because it’s close to Universal Studios. It was only a 10-minute walk from the Sheraton Hotel. There were three of us: two adults and our 10-year-old son, and it was for our anniversary dinner. We all enjoyed the food, including our son, who liked the wagyu sushi a lot. All the staff were very kind, and the food was fresh and delicious. Thank you, chef!

The chirashi bowl had very little rice and fish. The food was just average, with limited sushi roll options. Service was below averager. Water was not refilled. Rice was served much later than the main entrée. It seemed odd that the rice came so late, almost as if it was meant to be eaten separately or as desert. I used to think any random sushi place in California would be great until i visited this one.
