Sushi Sasabune

Despite its unassuming exterior, Sasabune is LA’s epicenter of power-lunching. It’s the best omakase (Japanese chef's choice) lunch in the city. You can bring anyone here—producers, actors, filmmakers—and they’ll be impressed. I like omakase for business, because it encourages a trusting mentality. Everything is in the hands of the chef. Just know that it's impossible to walk in for lunch—make a reservation in advance.
