LA Foodο½3 Highly Affordable & Quality Japanese Spots
π£ Today I'm recommending budget-friendly yet super fresh Japanese restaurants in LA β perfect for solo meals or couples. I've marked the prices in the photos β amazing value! π― π£ Sushi Gen π° Around $40 per person π 422 E 2nd St, Los Angeles, CA 90012 A long-standing LA favorite β super popular and busy. For lunch, arrive on time or be prepared to wait (we were 5 tables behind and waited 45 minutes). β¨ Sashimi Deluxe β Incredibly fresh, generous cuts β almost too much for one person. My wife only finished half! β¨ Sushi Deluxe β Over $20 for this quality? Unbeatable value β thick, fresh fish over perfectly seasoned rice. π£ Oji Sushi π° Around $40 per person π 624 E Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91101 A hidden gem in Pasadena with great prices. The fish is cut thick, fresh, and melts in your mouth. We walked in with no wait β seems not many know about this spot yet! β¨ Chirashi Bowl β Under $30 for a huge bowl of melt-in-your-mouth fish. The salmon and tuna were especially fatty and delicious. β¨ Sushi & Sashimi Set β Generous portions, including fatty tuna sashimi β so satisfying. π£ Ootoro π° Around $40 per person π 232 E 2nd St, Ste E, Los Angeles, CA 90012 A small LA chain β best value at lunch. Closed Sundays & Mondays, so plan ahead! All fish is fresh and thick-cut. β¨ Premium Chirashi β Includes sweet uni and super fatty toro, tuna, salmon, etc. β top-notch quality. (Prices higher at dinner.) β¨ Blue Fin Tuna Bowl β My wife said sheβs never had so much thick, fatty blue fin tuna in one bowl β fresh and luxurious.
