The streets of Los Angeles, filled with sushi restaurants, some more glamorous or grittier than others....but, have you every thought of looking above those streets for one of the best Japanese restaurants in town?
You're probably thinking I have lost it, folks...But, let me reassure you, I'm serious....
Advice: Go stand on the corner of Wilshire and Flower in Downtown and tilt your head towards the sky. On top of that majestic building you're standing beside is Takami Sushi & Robata.
Take the elevator to the 21st floor of the building and enter one of the most hippest locations in Los Angeles, smack-dab in the middle of the Financial District. The interior of Takami is uber-woodsy, modern, and chic. Take a seat on a tree stump and sip on a Gin & Tonic, or step outside to the balcony to see a glittering panorama of Downtown Los Angeles. It's quite mesmerizing.....
The prices are pretty affordable; the menu's stocked with delicious sushi, robata, special plates, and more. Whether you want to take your lady on a date or celebrate a birthday, Takami will definitely provide a wonderful and cozy atmosphere. So, friends...strap on those heels and button up those shirts, Takami's waiting!
Also....you absolutely cannot leave the restaurant without trying their Lemon Albacore Roll....It's the most refreshing thing you'll ever eat! If you're visiting L.A...put Takami on your to-see list. It's, like, totally worth it! (spoken like a true Los Angeleno, haha)
Takami is located on 811 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 2100, Los Angeles, CA 90071, (213) 236-9600...visit takamisushi.com for more!
