About

KazuNori is a Westwood institution for high-quality, minimalist hand rolls. The experience is fast, efficient, and focused on fresh ingredients. While the lines can be long and the seating is tight, most diners find the quality of the fish and the warm rice well worth the wait. It's a must-visit for sushi lovers, though not for those seeking a leisurely, multi-course meal.

The hand rolls are life-changing.
