Michelin star rated authentic Japanese food a couple miles away that includes sashimi, sushi, as well as salads and cooked dishes. Reservations are a must and their Omacase is exceptional.

Great inexpensive authentic Japanese food with several locations in LA. They don't take reservations and there can be a wait during prime lunch and dinner hours. No California rolls and other non-traditional fare but great quality at a good price. They have the best to go packaging — great for taking to the Hollywood Bowl, picnic, etc. There are two locations within 15-20 mins from Casita.
