Loved it so much the first time, I came back a second time. Truly a dining experience, that you'll love to keep coming back to. Every single dish, has its own unique flavor, taste, and if you do the wine pairing, the wine selected is truly right on the money. From the moment you get into the parking structure, the staff is waiting for you, as they know you have a reservation. The service is very quick, and attentive. I see some people talk about how small the place is. Can I say something? That's exactly how it should be. Less is more. So much more. As someone who wants a nice quiet dinner, with no crowds, this place is exactly that. You have your dinner, with little to no interruptions. Also, the fact that it's connected to the valet is a huge plus. In today's world, even Beverly Hills isn't safe. This is a huge plus for me, as I want to feel safe, and secure. Back to the food. Can I have 10 orders of the shiro ebi w/ caviar?! Load me up with the caviar. So gooooood!!! The otoro had an amazing buttery taste. We got extremely lucky and got to have the rare Kamutoro sushi. Can't wait to come back again soon, and once again have a great experience. If you haven't checked this place out. Do it! Cheers to the executive chef Earl, who made this experience all happen to perfection. read more

Excellent experience, fantastic food. This is like being invited to your sushi chef's home and experiencing their favorite dishes. Small, intimate, with funky, cool music playing in the background. Every seat is amazing. I love that it's tucked away in the heart of Beverly Hills, an easy walk from shopping and parking. Downstairs in an upscale mall. We were able to get reservations pretty easily last minute-but not sure how long that will last. Allergies and food intolerances handled with ease. Pricey and super fresh -as to be expected for omakase in Beverly Hills. read more

Tiny hidden spot with excellent sushi. Service was really attentive and friendly. It is pricier than the original location but I would say if you're doing omakase, this one was an elevated experience and quality. The music was also great. Obviously the OG location has more of a neighborhood sushi spot feel and has a la carte options, so people could understandably prefer that. I was told the BH one has a slightly higher food budget than the original location which could explain why we thought the quality was better even for the same items. We did the half note omakase at the original spot just a week before so it was easy to compare. Everything was fresh and delicious, the churotoro and shiro ebi with caviar were both so good. We had the second seating on a Tuesday night here so there were only 5 guests total and immediately had a celebrity sighting. This and the original location are quite popular with celebrities. The woman next to us did the wine pairing and hearing them describe the wines was so interesting, my friend was definitely planning to try the wine pairing on her next visit. read more

Came here for my birthday dinner, which was a 20 course Omakase experience. I received a little birthday card. Everything tasted fresh and of high quality. The standouts for me were chutoro, torotaku, and akami. Most of the courses included a bit of wasabi inside, which is good if it has the right amount. I feel like a few of them had too much wasabi though. The service was wonderful, but I can't give 5 stars for a couple of reasons. This is not the best omakase experience that I've had. In addition, I feel like we were tricked about the valet parking cost. We were told that it was free, but we ended up being charged $15 for valet as part of our bill. It is a very small and intimate restaurant with a few tables and counter seating. Reservations are required in advance. read more

This is the best omakase I've ever been to! It doesn't have the same hype as other omakase restaurants so I wasn't sure what to expect. I had been to the valley location and liked it so we decided to go here on Saturday night to celebrate a birthday. You enter thru the valet parking of the building. There are 4 seats at the sushi bar and about 3-4 tables. We had the sushi bar to ourselves that night and enjoyed the 20 piece Omakase experience. It's $220 a person which is standard for omakase. They also have a knowledgeable sommelier and good wine list (wines are very expensive). I don't eat shellfish and they were able to accommodate me (unlike some other omakase restaurants). The head chef was able to create a traditional sushi experience while incorporating modern flavors making it a perfect balance. I will definitely be back for a special occasion. read more

For sushi aficionados, welcome home. This tiny gem is in a parking lot and seats max 15 people in the whole place. Service was fantastic, with an attentive sommelier pouring a wine pairing with each plate. Each bite was melt in your mouth delicious. A proper omakase experience. Highly recommend. Diners beware, the 90210 price tag is a hefty one. read more

This was my second time at Sushi Note Omakase in Beverly Hills, and I've also been to the original Sherman Oaks location three times for omakase, but I have to say, I prefer the Beverly Hills omakase a bit more (keep in mind the Beverly Hills location is a pricier omakase than the Sherman Oaks location, but it's also a different vibe all together). The vibe here feels a bit more intimate, making it perfect for a special occasion. The service is fantastic, warm, attentive, and they remember the little details. The friend that was dining with me had been here before, and the staff recalled that she did a sake pairing on her last visit. Even though they don't usually offer it, they mentioned it and made it happen, which was such a thoughtful touch. As for the sushi... absolutely incredible. My personal favorites were: * Chutoro - perfectly balanced richness. So buttery. * Shiro ebi with caviar - definitely the best caviar I've ever had. We got a second order of this one. * Hotate - melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The music selection is immaculate -- it really enhances the whole experience without being overbearing. We even asked Chef Earl for his playlist on Spotify so we could listen at home and he happily shared it. Overall, Sushi Note Omakase in Beverly Hills delivers an elevated yet welcoming omakase experience. It's everything you want for a date night, celebration, or just when you're craving top-tier sushi with exceptional service. read more

Sushi Note Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

This sushi bar is located in the valet parking area of where the Cartier is currently housed. Its a small place that probably holds around 16 customers per seating. Its quaint, nicely decorated and I like the ambiance a lot. Sevice was impeccable, everyone is truly amazing from the front of the house to the Sommelier and the sushi chef that served the food. The sushi was amazing and literally so good, I am not a chu-toro nor a o-toro fan but I was a fan of theirs. Soooo good, everything was really fresh and truly an experience to eat each and everyone of the sushi presented to us. We sat at the bar and that was really fun as we had awesome conversation with the chefs and was able to get more information on the sushi we were eating. If you do go, I recommend the bar. Also, to reply about the over wasabi that people have said, I honestly did not have that issue whatsoever but I can say that they use fresh wasabi and not the powder type that gets turned into wasabi paste, maybe that fresh taste comes off as being too strong. Nevertheless, i will say that on our dining experience we didn't have that issue at all. I truly appreciated the amount given and the salt added on the dish that needed it. Why only a 4*? I think for the money we pay, it was definitely not enough food to keep you full. I normally never leave a place hungry specially after paying 500 dollars but in this instance I left the place a bit hungry not a lot but a bit :) ... also the fact that the appetizers where counted as 1 course each was disappointing coz I would count that as 1 even though there were 3 dishes in the plate. With this said, If you have an extra 500, it's an experience to try. read more

My friend took me here for a celebration and the place was cute. It's a little hidden gem located in the valet parking lot. The ambiance was nice with cute decor and nice playlist of music. The place is small and seats about 14 people only. The food was just ok. Nothing really grabbed my taste bud. The cod was the best thing I had. The service was good but I did not like how you could not see the list of the 20 food items of your experience or the chefs explain where the food came from. The servers explained each item instead. This experience was cool but Scratch by Sushi is better. A lot of the food did not have much flavor and some items were very chewy. read more

Let's start off with the staff. Everyone was a delight! From the hostess to the sommeliers Jon and Sean (apologies if i spelled it incorrectly) to our chef Chris. They made our anniversary an even better celebration with their attention to detail and amazing knowledge of the wines and fish being served. Thank you to everyone who made our night an even more magical night! The restaurant itself creates an intimate experience, almost as though you've gone over to a friend's house for dinner. We definitely enjoyed the Chef's counter and so glad we went with that option. We were in our own world really. I admired how they incorporated family photos of the executive chef's life, it gave it a whole other level of hominess. On to the food, which was my absolute favorite part of the night. I was skeptical about not being able to choose what I'd be eating but I truly fell in love with every dish. Throughout the 20 course meal, we continued to say "this was my favorite" but the next course soon became the new favorite. My partner is very delicate when it comes to that fishy taste, but everything was so fresh he could not stop talking about the fish. A must try, in my book and we will definitely be back. Thank you Sushi Note! read more

Sushi Note is a small omakase sushi joint nestled inside a Rodeo Drive parking garage. Matt B. and I went Friday to celebrate a minor work achievement/the kids sleeping over at my parents'. We were both blown away by this dinner, which would've been worthy of a birthday or anniversary. I booked our reservation on Tock a few days in advance and was only able to get a table seating. The restaurant was small, with just four seats at the actual bar, but we got the full experience at our table. The dining room was serene and attractive, and service was immaculate. Sommelier Sean doubled as our waiter, and he led us through an incredible omakase, notably enhanced by a thoughtful wine pairing. He was a fantastic host, friendly and knowledgeable. The pace was just right, leisurely but precisely scheduled. We started at 6:00 and were out right before 8:00, when the restaurant had its second seating. I'd never had a wine pairing with sushi before, and this was a significant part of the Note experience. You can go without or drink wine or sake by the bottle, but I can't recommend the pairing enough. It was generous, with nine two-ounce pours, or about two thirds of a bottle to go with the twenty items in the omakase, most of those bite-sized nigiri. The choices were all delightful and interesting, and Sean was an excellent guide. I knew we were in for a ride when the tuna course came with a French red he described as "sanguine." The food was superb, easily in the top tier of Los Angeles sushi. We started with a trio of sashimi: oyster, shiokko, and tako, paired with Friulano, an Italian white. The Shigoku oyster was a clean first bite, topped with a Japanese mignonette. The shiokko, or baby amberjack, came sprinkled with lemon and pickled plum salt, with shiso, gobo, and cucumber sunomono to accompany the slivers of sashimi. The octopus was so tender, even my picky husband enjoyed it. The tentacles were braised and sliced very thin, finished with yuzu kosho and microgreens. The bulk of our dinner came in the form of fourteen nigiri, all beautifully crafted with fresh, high quality fish over delicate mounds of sushi rice. They came in twos and threes, each course paired with a new wine. First, we got two types of snapper, tennen tai dressed with sea salt and ishigakidai with the house chef's soy sauce. These came with a pour of Chablis. Then we had the extraordinary bluefin tuna, akami and otoro dabbed with soy sauce and paired with Fer Servadou, that rich French red. Sake, buri, and shima aji arrived next, with Gros et Petit Manseng, French varietals I'd never even heard of. The sake and buri--ora king salmon and fatty adult yellowtail--were dry aged, this jukusei method intensifying the flavors. The salmon came with soy sauce, kombu, and sesame seeds, the buri with grated daikon soaked in ponzu. The shima aji, or striped jack, was brushed with soy sauce and lemon. I loved every plate of sushi, but the hotate and hokkigai might have been my favorite. The Hokkaido jumbo scallop was exquisite, lightly seared and finished with black truffle salt and lemon zest. The surf clam was tender and maximally fresh, killed seconds earlier and dressed with soy sauce and lemon. These were accompanied by a white Burgundy. Next, we had kohada cured in vinegar and salt, with a bit of soy sauce; kinmedai with soy sauce and yuzu kosho, another top bite; and isaki with ponzu, green onion, and momiji oroshi, a spicy version of grated radish. These came with an Alsatian Gewurztraminer/Riesling. Our last nigiri were two more favorites: shiro ebi with caviar and uni. The shiro ebi were tiny, velvety white shrimp topped with Osetria caviar, and the Hokkaido uni was just perfect, a sweet, melting heap of sea urchin with a touch of soy sauce. The pairing here was a lovely champagne. At this point, I knew our dinner was winding down, and the wagyu came as a wonderful surprise. This was a generous ribbon of Miyazaki A5 wagyu, served with shiso flowers, pickled shallot, and pickled kizami, or wasabi stem. The beef was incredibly buttery, barely cooked, one of the best pieces of meat I've ever eaten. Our last savory course was the tremendous torotaku hand roll. Crisp nori, sushi rice, and plenty of lush toro studded with crunchy pickled daikon. We enjoyed the wagyu and the hand roll with a pour of Nebbiolo. There was an actual dessert, not always a given with a sushi dinner. This was ube gelato topped with Harry's Berries mixed berry compote and a homemade graham cracker crumble. Light and lovely, served with a bottle-aged port. We had a marvelous time at Sushi Note. It was expensive but worth the price, and I'd be happy to go again for a special occasion. I've never had anything quite like this wine-laced omakase. read more

Located at the parking level of the Rodeo Dr plaza. Once you pull in the restaurant is located next to the valet. Did not opt for wine pairing. Had a Pilsner and Sara Sara unfiltered sake. If you like jasmine than the Pilsner worth a try with a nice hint of jasmine finish. Sale is not as cloudy as your typical unfiltered. I like mines a bit more cloudy and found this one kind of caught in between. I would opt for the dry instead with a cleaner finish. Bar seating is limited and only 4 seats. If you can probably try to get a bar seat. Meal is pace nicely and chef goes into detail explaining each piece. 3/4 pieces was aged fish which offer more melt in you mouth and tenderness. Couple of highlights definitely was a marinated brandy mackerel it's got little bitter. Some might hate it, but I found it interesting and never had it before. Quite a different take. Baby shrimp was a mother great piece with zero sauce. Enjoy the ingredients nothing else. Uni is always great. If I had to say I find it sort of a cross between sushi zo and enya with little more modern take. Finish in-house gelato made with rice vinegar they use for their rice. It's worth trying if you're a sushi lover especially if you don't want to drive all the way to Sherman Oaks for their original location. read more

Sushi Note Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

We came to Sushi Note in Beverly Hills for a birthday dinner, and it was such a great experience from start to finish. The omakase was delicious -- every piece was super fresh and thoughtfully prepared. We also did the wine pairing, and it was spot on. Each wine really brought out the flavors of the food in such a fun way. Our sommelier/waiter was awesome -- super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole night feel special without being stuffy. Plus, the restaurant even left a handwritten birthday note at our seats, which was such a sweet touch. Highly recommend for a special night out or if you just love great sushi and wine! Not cheap, but a great night out. read more

Definitely a splurge restaurant, great spot if you're celebrating something. We came here for a birthday. Small and intimate restaurant. Service was great, everyone was really professional and friendly. Sushi is delicious, really great quality. 20 piece menu ($190/person). Which is surprisingly lower than some omakase places that have an outrageous sticker tag, but still a lot of money for me haha. We had a piece of tuna here that was probably the best we've ever had. They also have a wine pairing option alongside dinner, at about $150/person. We had a really great time here... just be prepared to spend. read more

I thought a lot about this review before posting it. TLDR: great service, but food is not worth the price. Positives: The service here was impeccable - very nice, friendly, and the level of service you would expect from a restaurant like this. Additionally, the food presentation was done very well, and the last 3 savory items were the few items I loved: uni, wagyu, and torotaku. Where this place fell short for me was the food - nearly everything on the menu was lacking flavor, the opposite of what you should get for this price ($190/person before tax and tip). I've been to numerous omakase sushi restaurants at lesser, equal, and higher price ranges and this was by far my least favorable experience - this was the only omakase sushi experience I've walked away from feeling disappointed. Starting with the amuse-bouche course to the last course, flavor lacked and the fish was less tender/soft/melting than I've experienced with sushi at this price range. Overall, the fish lacked flavor - both the fish itself and the sauce/toppings that were added. Particularly the hotate, which is typically my favorite - it was a bit tough and the hotate itself didn't have flavor and the toppings hardly added any taste. I wanted to love this restaurant, especially since I came here for a special occasion, but unfortunately I would not recommend this place to friends, family, or the Yelp community. Additionally, it is odd to me that this place touts being on Rodeo Drive, but it's underground inside a parking garage. It is a very nice parking garage, but not necessarily where I want to eat an expensive meal in Beverly Hills. Lastly, when I was seated, there were 2 open seats at the bar so I asked if it was available and if I could sit there; 2 other couples also subsequently asked, but we were all separately declined. However, those 2 seats remained empty the entire time which was even more odd since the pricing for the dining room and bar are the same, and it's a 14 seat restaurant where we can all see the empty seats. Lastly, you have to pay the tip when you make the reservation, before you experience anything which is something I haven't seen before. read more

Super fresh sushi Omakase . Service was great. They have a wide variety of sake by the bottle ranges from $120 to over $500 +. It is a very small place located inside the rodeo collection by the valet underground. They have about less than 20 people sitting at a time. It is the same as the sushi note in Sherman oaks. Chef Kiminobu Saito was there we went on a Saturday night. Super nice and friendly. He came out and spoke to his diners after the service. It wasn't cheap but worth it. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I've dined at this restaurant several times, and every time Cherry, the sommelier, has been the highlight of the experience. She doesn't just recommend wines and sakés--she also helps guide food pairings and brings warmth, knowledge, and personality that elevate the entire meal. To be honest, she makes the whole restaurant. Last night, Cherry wasn't there, and the difference was immediately noticeable. The woman covering for her was neither helpful nor engaging. She only responded when pressed, offered no guidance or interaction, and never once checked in with us. When I sat down at the bar, the manager, the woman covering for Cherry, and a waitress were all standing nearby. Not a single one of them greeted me or said hello. We felt almost completely ignored. Sadly, this isn't new from the manager--he's always come off as rude and disinterested. Overall, the experience was disappointing and lacked the hospitality I've come to associate with this place--an atmosphere that, frankly, Cherry is largely responsible for creating. read more

Omar the Sommelier was amazing. No cellphone reception inside the underground restaurant. Omakase Sushi (prepaid on Tock) $190 pp. 23% pre-tipped on Tock. We had the amazing $150 Reserve Wine Pairing. Validated parking at garage $15. read more

Me and my wife had a saturday night dinner at this resturant recently, they were gracious enough to reschedule us, however honestly for the price tag which is approaching michelin level resturants, I was a bit disappointed. 1. They put wasabi and soy sauce in all their sashimi and it kind of overrides the taste and does not allow the taste of the fish itself to shine through. That was probably my biggest issue with the food, too much wasabi and soy sauce, makes me think they are not confident in letting their food's original taste speak for itself. 2. For omakase, which is chef's creation, not very original. The multicourse meal was pretty much a selection of different fish on rice with wasabi in the middle. Few of the courses were inventive, or did anything particularly interesting with texture or taste. Overall food was fine. Just disappointed because I expected more, perhaps my faut for thinking this is Michelin level resturant. read more

The food is exceptional and carefully curated. The service is beyond attentive and interactive. I submit that the only place to sit is at the sushi bar so you can interact with the chef and see the meal being prepared. I've been twice. The second time we stayed on and spoke at length with both the chef and the sommelier who are well versed, intelligent and a delight. read more

I truly did not think it was ever possible to get a real, authentic Japanese omakase experience in LA... until I went to Sushi Note. The food, the service, the ambience- all reminiscent of an upscale sushi restaurant in Tokyo. Chef Earl is an artist. Every single bite we had was absolute perfection. From the quality of the fish, to the textures, to the temperature of the fish and rice, to the flavors and toppings on the fish and even the rice to fish ratio. We sat at the bar and the timing of each omakase piece was flawless. It's so hard to choose, but out of the 20 menu items we tried, I would have to say that my favorites were the red snapper, the otoro, the seared toro (we had this instead of the Uni), the A5 Wagyu and the toro with pickled daikon hand roll/taco. I love the way the otoro was treated and cut. It literally melted in my mouth. Now the wagyu piece- WOW!!! That pickled shallot on top was really special. And the yuzu ice cream was just such a great way to end the whole meal. We weren't even halfway through when I told my husband I'm going to be so upset when this meal is over. I also really loved that Chef Earl took the time to talk to us about the whole concept of Sushi Note. I felt his love and dedication to his craft in every explanation he gave and in every bite we took. Can't wait to come back. Most epic sushi experience in LA, hands down!! read more

Just another Beverly Hills marked up scam. Set menu was drench In ponzu sauce to masked the quality of the fish. Wine paring didn't make any sense, it didn't go right with each dish. The restaurant is pretty much an old janitor closet that's been converted to a small dining area. The server mentioned that the head chef was from Japan to make it sound more authentic, the server then realized that 4 members of our party dining is from Japan and out of curiosity they asked where in Japan, he then reply that oh he was only born there and moved when he was young . The only good part was the Vallet driver was funny and honest and well just keep it at that. read more

Overall an excellent experience- the service was prompt and friendly, the food was delicious, ands the fish was excellent quality with good presentation and interesting flavors but not overwhelming like other places who try to do too much without letting the quality and simple flavors speak for themselves. I saw other reviews about the sommelier and I'm not sure if we had the same one but he was very pleasant and nice, we had a very good experience and we didn't end up going with the wine pairing but he was helpful and explained our options without being pushy. My two complaints were 1, I agree with others who have mentioned the Wasabi. I felt the chef was inconsistent with how much Wasabi was between the fish and rice, and there were a few pieces that were a bit heavy handed in my opinion. The uni in particular felt a bit overwhelmed by the Wasabi. And 2, I did definitely leave feeling hungry / unsatisfied. We had the opportunity to order more food, but I felt I would have liked to have something a bit more filling or satisfying. Even a miso soup would have been nice. I don't need to feel super full especially after omakase but I don't want to be considering stopping somewhere else on the way home either. Aside from that, the experience was really good. It is a small establishment that is slightly tucked away on the lowest level of a courtyard. When it is such an intimate setting you expect a lot more attentiveness and they delivered without us feeling like they were "hovering" which is a fine line that they did very well. I loved every bite. The 14 day aged fish was a real treat, the flavors were amazing. We also loved the ebi with caviar, and the tuna and radish hand roll at the end which was flavorful and the seaweed was light and crispy. The Toro and tuna were both melt-in-your-mouth. Overall it felt like a good value for the price although again I could have used a bit more food personally. read more

Wow! Amazing food, service, and experience. Everything is highly curated- from fish selection (some of which is really unique), to cuts, to music, to environment to selections of sake and Japanese beer. Servers are very attentive and highly knowledgeable. A really unique sushi experience that is a little more artisanal than typical Omakase in LA- highly recommend! Can't wait to go back. read more

I came here twice in a month bc the first time was so good I wanted to treat my bestie. Sadly, the second time wasn't great and I was kind of embarrassed for having talked it up so much. I told my bestie it was the new Nozawa Bar and, based on tonight, it is not. They were definitely busier than the first time and the service, while not rude, just seemed perfunctory. The food was still good. But the pacing was very off, the presentation was very flat like our server was just phoning it in and rattling off a script, and it felt we were being rushed more than everyone around us who had a different server. At times, our next course would come out before we had even finished the one in front of us. We had to ask for more ginger and to have our wine chilled even after our server was the one who remarked about the need to keep it chilled in the first place. Head scratching moment for sure. Disappointed bc at this price point, I think everyone is looking for a more rounded experience and not just good food. Nozawa is more expensive but worth it, and for a similar price point, there's Tama. read more
