Editorial Review

Hamasaywhut? High end Ovitz-owned spot stands out among sushi joints stuck between sunglass huts and dry-cleaners. A little celeb-spotting appetizer for two (was that Harold or Kumar?) followed by crazy rolls bearing stripper names like "Candy" and "Judy." Oh, those are Mike's family members? Fuck, we're dead and so is our ability to eat lunch in this town again. Tasty unagi or rack of lamb in deceivingly elegant setting behind strip-mall façade. Super eats.
