Lunch omakase was incredible. Got to chat with chef Azumi throughout the courses he prepared and we had the opportunity to learn a lot about him and all fish he was preparing.He introduced us to nodoguro and it was one of the best pieces we had!

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 Ive seen for a sushi place.Both chefs are partners and they both speak English. Definitely recommend everyone to come try. Wouldnt be surprised if they end up getting a Michelin star

A fairly new establishment at the time of my visit; I was definitely impressed by both the quality and the presentation. I had lunch omakase and everything was right about it. Most likely the best sushi bar in Alhambra.

Delicious, just make sure you have a reservation. If you have never done omakase before this is an expensive experience. But the chefs and the service are so good. It starts at 300$ per person so youve been warned.

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.

A really great spot for omakase! The sushi is delicious, authentic, and each piece does have something unique to offer. Restaurant vibe is very relaxing and modern, and the chefs really try to make your experience special.

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.

Amazing dining experience. First class service with the best omakase Ive had. Every dish was an amazing and unique experience. In addition, the Sake pairings were done perfectly to match the progression of dishes. I cant wait for the next opportunity to go back.

True gem! Great addition to La omakase scene! Fish was fresh, right amount of everything, great tasting rice and everything served at the right temperature! My only wish the rice was not as mushi in some sushi but thats just me;)) if you like proper omakase go here! Definitely worth the price and a drive! Also chefs create great friendly atmosphere! Thank you, we will be back!
