Matsuhisa
About
Matsuhisa, opened by Nobu Matsuhisa on La Cienega Blvd in Beverly Hills in 1987, is the restaurant that launched the global Nobu brand. Yellowtail jalapeño and black cod miso were born here. It's smaller and quieter than Nobu, and the omakase at the counter shows the chefs at their best.
Jasmine says
In 1987 this little restaurant redrew the world map of Japanese food: yellowtail jalapeño was born here.
