Finding a sushi restaurant in Los Angeles is no difficult task, but finding a high quality sushi restaurant that is also affordable can be quite a challenge. Introducing Tsukiji Sushi Sen in Santa Monica; a local sushi hotspot that serves fresh fish in a hip atmosphere at reasonable prices…
Not only does Tsukiji offer a menu full of Japanese classics, but they also offer a healthy take on sushi such as rice-less rolls that emphasize the fresh flavors of the fish itself. Wrapped in cucumber skin, the rice-less rolls cut the calories and allow you to indulge in more rolls with less guilt. There are four rice-less roll options featuring various kinds of fish from salmon to crab and my personal favorite, tuna. Tsukiji also has a great lineup of other rolls that include rice. The special rolls; Kiss of Fire and Fiesta Roll showcase fresh and bold ingredients like avocado and jalapeno and are both flavorful and delicious. The Red Dragon is also a simple and satisfying favorite with tuna and avocado on top of a spicy tuna roll. For light starters the spicy garlic butter edamame won’t disappoint either! Best of all, these orders are all gluten free!
With great sushi, a friendly and accommodating staff, and a chill atmosphere in the bustle of Main Street, Tsukiji is the perfect sushi spot. Whether you go to the restaurant to watch a game on one of their many televisions, or go to grab a quick bite to eat before hitting the bars, Tsukiji is the perfect sushi spot for every type of eater. Just be sure to BYOB; Tsukiji may serve good food but it lacks a liquor license!
