Shunji

Shunji Santa Monica Los Angeles

Shunji is an institution, just like the Venice Pier or a hike at Runyon Canyon. This is the restaurant of Shunji Nakao, the original Matsuhisa sushi chef — although a meal at Shunji may sometimes not offer sushi at all. Come here for the dinner omakase or a more affordable lunch option, and be mesmerized by the variety of fish, the bright orange and fur-like uni, or the incredible vegetable creations. The chef’s most famous dish is a cube of tomatoes, lightly cooked, and bathed in fragrant dashi. Time to rethink your preconceived ideas of what a sushi restaurant looks like…
