Sogo Roll Bar

Behind the counter at this Los Feliz hand roll bar is Kiminobu Saito, the chef also behind Sushi Note down the street, working fillings like brandy-soaked albacore and scallop coated in masago mayo. The format is fast and casual: order rolls individually or in sets from three to six, alongside crispy rice starters, sashimi and a few donburi bowls, at the sushi bar, on the patio, or to go. Sake, wine and beer turn over often enough that the menu doesn't try to pin down specifics.
