LA | Legendary Sushi Spot with High Value š£
Even on a busy weekday before noon, a line was already forming outside Sushi Gen. While there are easily over a dozen sushi spots within a few blocks, this place has earned a fiercely loyal followingāby 12:30 PM, the entire restaurant was packed.ā¤ļø Though sometimes they may run low on salmon, the tuna, yellowtail, squid, and eel are consistently fresh and deliciousāeach bite is a reminder of why people keep coming back.š The lunch specials are famously affordable, though waits can stretch to an hour. If youāre short on time, opt for Ć la carte seating at the barāthatās what we did today, and it was just as satisfying. šµ Pro tip: After your meal, walk across the street to Tea Master for what might be LAās best matcha soft serve. The perfect sweet finish to an authentic Japanese meal. š Sushi Gen 422 E 2nd St, Los Angeles, CA 90012 #SushiGen #LittleTokyoLA #BestValueSushi #LunchSpecial #LALegends #NoFrillsJustFish #FreshCatch #DTLAEats #MatchaAfterwards #LAFoodie #WorthTheWait #BarSeatLife #EatLikeALocal #ClassicSpot
