    Some recently recommended Sushi Park. Said that if we loved Zo (we do), we'd love Park. Haven't had a chance to try it yet, but would like to hear other's experiences.

      Is Park serving Korean-style sushi?

          Yes, that's the one I was thinking of. Thanks.

        Yes! Sushi Park is excellent. The sushi chefs are Korean, but I've been told they were trained by Japanese chefs. I could be wrong. I love the Omakase. We're even going tonight for our anniversary. Small pieces of excellent, fresh fish on perfect beds of rice. I should say that I am not a fan of Mori just so you know where I'm coming from. I found the fish the be fine, but I found the non-fish dishes to be flavorless and unappealing. I've been dying to try Sushi Zo.

          Sushi Park is amazing. Small place in a strip mall, but the fish is excellent.

          The Hump, at the Santa Monica Airport.

            if you go to the hump, be aware that the check is sort of a wild card.
            could end up costing you more than urasawa. . .

            Hi Amanda,

            Happy Birthday. :) You might consider Mori Sushi. Mori-san is a true master at his craft. If possible, be sure to request to be seated in front of Mori-san and enjoy~
