Delicious, wonderful, friendly. Lots of thought and care put into every aspect of the experience- from all the interior decor (picked by the owners) to the ceramic plates and sake cups, to the service. Fresh hot towels, meticulously prepared courses, constantly refilled hot tea. I loved how friendly all the folks running this place were, from answering all of our questions to explaining certain methods of preparing ingredients (fish, junsai, ginger, etc.). The ensuing atmosphere was one of camaraderie, friendliness, and sharing. The foooooooood though, the best part :-) Jon (not sure if I'm spelling it correctly) was a treat to talk to as well ✨
An awesome new sushi place my friend recommended. A lot of pieces and courses were given. About 20 total. The ambiance was easily one of the best I've seen for a sushi place.Both chefs are partners and they both speak English. Definitely recommend everyone to come try. Wouldn't be surprised if they end up getting a Michelin star
Great Omakase, pricy but definitely worth the experience! Chef is friendly and engaging.
WOW - Amazing experience! Highly recommend if you are looking for omakase experience in the San Gabriel Valley area. Great quality all around and enjoyed the ambiance of the resturant and care from the chefs and staff.
Total experience was amazing. Stopped by during lunch to celebrate and was not disappointed. Im not the biggest uni fan but tried it again here and everything was butter. Everything in the omakase was a hit and nothing tasted fishy.Ambiance of the space is very cozy and intimate. Roe, Kwan, and Fumio san really take care of you from beginning to end. This is our new celebration spot 10/10.
An absolute gem of a restaurant. I had the nigiri omakase: service was sharp and friendly, and Chef Azumi and his team were so thoughtful with how they constructed the meal. Kogane is a worthy and exciting addition to the LA sushi scene, and, in my opinion, already one of the best.
I don't usually find a good japanese omakase in the san gabriel area, but here is one.As an upscale Japanese restaurant, it is satisfying, their fish are fresh and the service is very good.
Highly recommended!
