Hide Sushi Japanese Restaurant

Hide Sushi in Los Angeles offers Japanese cuisine and a variety of sushi. It is open for lunch and dinner.

Roll lovers beware: The only kind you'll find here are hand rolls, and only a few at that.

You won't find "exotic or fancy rolls" at this Japanese "hole-in-the-wall" in West LA, which slices up "generous" cuts of "straightforward", "quality" sushi at "bargain" prices; the "sweet" staff moves things along, but surveyors say the "tiny", "bare-bones" space can get "crowded" – a trade-off when you want "the real thing"; P.S. cash only.

Opened in 1979, Hide predated and survived the barrage of sushi bars rolling into L.A., thanks to its consistent quality and welcoming nature. The menu is old-school, and while the presence of California rolls is a concession to prevailing preferences, you won’t find a long list of everything-but-the-kitchen-sink rolls like at many sushi bars in town. The beer is not always served as cold as it...

The "cheap" sushi place on Sawtelle. Fresh, thick cuts hide in a bare bones corner shop beneath imperial Japanese front. Unpretentious presentation, low prices are set right by good sushi. Big changes seem to have shaken its Kyoto-worthy foundations. New chefs, new faces. Still good fish, though always prefaced with a "for the price." Hmmmm? Are we going to have to go all ninja on somebody's...

A crowded seating area fills with local Japanese families and trendy Westsiders. Dine-in customers add their names to the list and wait for seats while takeout orders are processed like clockwork....
