Tips

Save Money: Lunch combos are a great deal. Items such as the sashimi plate, sushi sampler, tempura plate and deep fried oysters come with miso soup, cucumber, daily appetizer, and Japanese pickles.

Parking: The restaurant is on the third floor of Tokyo Shopping Center, on the corner of Alameda and Third. During the day, enter on Alameda between Third and Fourth, and park on the fourth floor to access the entrance. After 8pm, enter through the parking structure.

Best sushi in downtown? Hard to say, but mostly Asian crowd knows the great pleasures of the Go. Wooden bar and glass cases. Precious toro, live sweet shrimp, buttery monkfish liver, and ebi tempura. Lunch special stuffs you with rolls for $10. Family is a Little Tokyo legend. Some rolls almost too gorgeous to devour, but if you insist, we'll get down on it and order even more.

L.A. sushi veterans bring Japanese regional classics like beef tempura with homemade sauce and exotic specialties (think grilled conch served in its shell) to Little Tokyo.:
In Short
A long pale sushi bar made of prized Japanese Cypress dominates the minimalist, blond wood and white bento box of a room. The chefs each have 25 years' experience, and the savvy...
