Shojin

Vegan restaurant · Downtown Los Angeles

@eater

"Shojin, which opened its first location in Little Tokyo in 2008 and a second one in Culver City in 2013, is acclaimed for being the first vegan sushi restaurant in Los Angeles. Led by Hiroshima-born chef Jun Matoshiro, Shojin sources ingredients that are organic and macrobiotic. Find classy decor, lit candles, and jazz playing at the Little Tokyo location. The Culver City location offers a similar ambiance and the option for outdoor patio seating. Menu highlights at both locations include the Saturday Night Fever roll, which is topped with torched mushroom “crab” that doesn’t quite mimic the crustacean. Also notable is the rainbow roll, which balances colorful mixed vegetables with the subtlety of shiso leaves and yuzu ponzu; the roll is topped with pickled red cabbage. Shojin serves a tasting menu ($68 per person) and an omakase menu ($78 per person) that changes monthly." - Olivia Leadbetter
