    Very nice experience eating here. Had a chance to meet and talk with the owners and had a great conversation with them. They love jazz and the decor consisted of various jazz artwork and instruments (with jazz music to complete the ambiance) The food was delicious and was complimented with a nice cold beer. Will be visiting again...///

    I was heartbroken when my old sushi spot (Yoshi’s on Santa Monica blvd) closed down but after several visits I can honestly say this place has absolutely taken the top spot. By far the best sushi in weho - fresh, delicious, great variety, and wonderful, friendly owners in a jazzy, Murakami-esque environment. I can’t recommend Ajisai enough.

    It’s a friendly neighborhood sushi place in WeHo, not fancy just a small place with small outdoor seating and couple seats inside. The service is a little slow but good, I came at the busy time so it took a while for the food to arrive: The menu is quite affordable, and the fish is good quality and the pieces are big. The spicy tuna on crispy rice is good and interesting, never had it in any other sushi place. The sushi comes in two pieces per order and the fish cut is pretty generous, and each piece taste very fresh. The trump roll is delicious, highly recommended.
