- Price range: $$$ ($16-$25)
Going omakase at most sushi restaurants means emptying your wallet. But
Tama Sushi offers multiple price tiers, ranging between $30 and $50,
which is about half the usual rate for handing yourself over to the
will of the chef. For four decades, Katsu Michite has been a master of
this trade—and a highly regarded one amongst L.A. culinary cognoscenti.
Don’t expect the whizz-bang exaggerations of jalapeno peppers and
creamy sauces; Michite is a sushi classicist who takes as much care in
the formation of the rice as he does in hand-selecting the fish at the
crack of dawn.
