At the counter

Entrust the meal to the chef.

Kim Chu leads Kasen’s ten-seat counter, with roots in Hiko Sushi, Los Angeles. The fifteen-course meal moves from otsumami appetizers to sashimi with Kasen’s own sauces and accompaniments, sushi with cold-aged fish and warm, seasoned shari, and original cooked dishes rooted in washoku. Read about the fish preparation and warm shari and Kasen’s approach to sashimi.

Omakase begins with trust in the chef. There is no fixed menu: the chef composes fifteen courses around ingredients that change with the week and the season. The experiences below indicate the emphasis of the meal, rather than a prescribed list of dishes. Sashimi, Seasonal and Wagyu can also be served in the private room.

The experience

Preparation and service.

The sushi is served with warm, distinctly seasoned shari. Kasen prepares the fish through aging and cutting, and makes its own accompanying sauces for sashimi. Cooked washoku courses complete the fifteen-course progression.

Discover how Kasen refines its cooked washoku courses, working with Japanese ingredients and trusted local purveyors.

Examples include aged halibut with seasonal truffles and Japanese bluefin otoro with Beluga sturgeon eggs and seasonal sea urchin, brought together with Kasen’s dressing. These illustrate Kasen’s approach; they are not a fixed dish list.

The chef introduces each course as it is served. Ingredients and preparations change from week to week.
