"Once in a while you stumble on something special and unexpected. My daughter and I went to Calabasas to try a sushi restaurant recommended by a friend. There was a two-hour waiting time so we decided to give up and go to Agoura Hills. Here are some sushi restaurants and we tried several. They are quite so-so, with medium sushi, which tends to be a bit cheesy. There was one, but we didn't disturb how it was in a mini-mall next to the shell station and don't look promising. After a recommendation for Sushi Raku from the same friend, we thought we would go. We couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised. The sushi was from Nobu Grad! It melted everything in your mouth and was clearly created with love, pride and incredible skills and artistry. It was all delicious! A small, inconceivable restaurant, the staff is very friendly and the sushi fantastic! It's not cheap, but then if you're eating this class sushi, so nicely prepared... They wouldn't expect it to be. We can't wait to go back!"
