🍣 Sonmari LA Review: Uni Heaven... But Slow Service! ⏳
Tried Sonmari — the food is fantastic, but be prepared to wait. Definitely book ahead (no walk-ins!). 🌟 What We Loved: 🦐 Uni Toast – Fresh, sweet, satisfying for uni lovers! 🍙 Hand Rolls – Tuna Taku & Saewoo Jang were favorites. 🐚 Miso Clam Appetizer – So flavorful, we finished every drop of broth! 🦆 Duck Gui – Delicious, fine-dining level starter. 🍸 Yuzu Cocktail – Refreshingly tart. ⚠️ Major Drawback – Slow Service: We arrived at 5:30 PM (not busy), but dishes came out slowly. Ordered more at 6:30, and by 7 PM some items hadn’t even been started. For sashimi & hand rolls, the wait felt unnecessarily long. 💡 Go if: You're not in a rush and want to savor quality Japanese fare with drinks. 🚫 Skip if: You're really hungry or on a tight schedule. #SonmariLA #LAJapanese #UniLovers #HandRolls #SlowService #FoodieReview #LADining #GoodFoodButWait #SushiSpot #EatPatiently
