Shima
Editorial Review
Small paper sign welcomes you to sublime sushi. Should remind you to bring more of your own paper—the green kind. Portions are wee, but delicate and lush, with real ground wasabi. Hit the sashimi. Harder! Snazzy loft helps steal a piece of Abbot-Kinney from forthcoming coffee magnates. Genmai-style for all those who care not to have their hearts explode. Brown rice, homemade tofu, and fish down.
