Excellent fish, the omakase is definitely the way to go. The decor is average, but the sushi more than makes up for it. more

For all you food lovers looking for a an amazing experience, *please* read about our experience. To put it in context, we are two asian girls who love food & know asian food very very well. We tried Sasabune tonight after reading all the rave reviews, and it was mediocre at best. The food was ok, most of the fish... more

I thought the Omikase style restaurant was good not great. It was also very expensive for what you get. I don't mind paying for sushi, but this was a little out of balance. more

There is no doubt in my mind that this is the ultimate sushi restaurant in Los Angeles. Sorry, but Sushi Nozawa is no where close to Sasabune. more

The one on Sawtelle had really fresh sushi, if expensive. I actually haven't been to the one on Wilshire so I can't really say, and I don't know how to delete reviews more

For the freshest fish on the Westside visit Sasabune on Wilshire. The dining room is nothing fancy, but the sushi (omakase only) never fails to impress. Runs about $70 for one with one drink, tip and tax. A treat. more

I've been eating at Sasabune once a week for about the last ten years. After eating there once, I couldn't eat sushi anywhere else. I recommend ordering the Omakase for first timers to try everything. But I can't afford the Omakase every week, so I order my favorites off the menu.

One of the, if not the best sushi joints on the Westside. They used to be on Sawtelle but now have expanded and moved to the old Todai location on Wilshire. The chef special still surprises you with amazing sushi. more
