Sushi Park doesn’t look like much from the outside — wedged into a no-frills West Hollywood strip mall –but inside, A-listers squeeze in to indulge in some of the city’s most coveted omakase.
Sushi Park is nondescript enough that those not in the know will walk right past it.
But upstairs in an unremarkable Sunset Boulevard building, with just eight counter seats and a handful of small tables, the vibe is intimate, exclusive, and unpretentious — exactly what draws Tinseltown’s A-list.
Described by locals as “dive-ish,” the pricey omakase joint has become one of LA’s most reliable paparazzi gold mines, where celebs are regularly spotted slipping in and out.
Most enter and exit without their security or entourages, just a couple close pals.
There’s a no photo policy inside, which means phones stay tucked away and conversations are private — a rarity in the city of Angels.
This week, Hailey Bieber — a Sushi Park regular — and Zoe Kravitz were photographed entering the joint for a relaxed girls night. The duo, long known for their effortless cool and trend-setting wardrobes, turned the second-floor open-air hallway outside the restaurant into an impromptu runway.

Kravitz kept it laid-back in a vintage red graphic tee, baggy pants, and a black cardigan, while Bieber mixed bootcut jeans and a cropped white tee with a fur-trimmed leather coat and flip-flops — only in L.A.
The pair’s famous counterparts, Justin Bieber and Harry Styles, were absent for dinner that night.
The restaurant’s low-key ambiance has turned Sushi Park into a trusted meeting spot for celebrity friends rather than staged sightings — though the paparazzi outside still can have a field day.
In it’s recent history, the minimalist restaurant has attracted the likes of Kendall Jenner (a frequent fixture), Leonardo DiCaprio, Beyoncé, Kylie Jenner, Taylor Swift, and Benny Blanco.
What really sets Sushi Park apart, though, is its no-compromise menu with top-tier fish flown in daily from Japan.
Diners leave their meal in the hands of the chef, who serves each guest a a minimum of seven courses consisting of a rotating parade of pristine fish based on what’s freshest that day. No flashy rolls, no gimmicks–just serious sushi.
“You basically sit down and the food comes out and you tell them when to stop,” an insider told The Post.
As for the price of admission, it’s not cheap–and that’s part of the mystique. Omakase typically ranges from $150 to $250 per person, excluding tax and gratuity, though the final cost can go higher or lower depending on the chef’s selection and the number of courses served.
Appetizers and desserts are not included in the omakase and are charged separately if ordered, reinforcing Sushi Park’s focus on the sushi itself rather than a traditional multi-course production.
Unlike trendier hotspots that burn bright and fade fast, Sushi Park has quietly thrived for decades, outlasting restaurant fads.
Despite its humble location, landing a seat at Sushi Park is hard. Reservations are notoriously tight, and walk-ins are almost unheard of.
