Sasabune Express - PACIFIC PALISADES

Love this hidden gem. We always sit outside. We aren't fans of Blue Ribbon so this is our local go-to sushi spot. We order their halibut and yellowtail sashimi, spicy tuna crispy rice (but we ask for less spicy tuna than what they offer), etc.

Simple menu. Good quality fish. Small, cozy place. The manager (who I think is actually the owner) is friendly. Tonight he was by himself having to serve everyone and managed it very well. I got Combo B and it was great.

This is the best place to eat in Pacific Palisades by far. Quick and simple sushi and shashmi menu which is really mostly setup as a set price affair for different portion sizes of mixed sushi and rolls. Like Sugarfish in a more traditional environment. Excellent value for the high quality and location. Small place so make reservations or expect a wait for most evenings. Lunch is an excellent way to experience the menu.Street parking at meters or park in the garage underneath which they will validate. Meters are patrolled aggressively.Restrooms. Accessible. Credit cards OK.

Best nigiri in the palisades. I always go with their version of an omakase, the "trust me "They haven 't let me down yet.

I think it's amazing! Trust me. It's amazing! Get the crispy rice spicy tuna!! ! It's expensive (ish) but it's so worth it!!
