Restaurant Review LinksListed below are links to reviews of Urasawa Restuarant from around the web.
"Idip my head under the indigo curtains that screen the doorway and take a seat at the white-blond maple counter. Sanded every night, its touch is familiar and reassuring, seductively smooth...."
"The hairy crab was my favorite, rivaling the tastes from Koju and Ryugin, but every dish was of a higher quality...."
"Urasawa is a celebration of the season, sometimes down to the week or day. This Spring meal was possibly my best Urasawa meal yet - everything had a lightness, and brightness, to it; perfectly complementing the beautiful Los Angeles weather...."
"Shortly after celebrated sushi chef Masa Takayama packed his knives for the Big Apple, his protégé Hiroyuki Urasawa settled into the master's former digs. The understated sushi bar has preciously few seats, resulting in incredibly personaliz..."
"Urasawa's uni really is the best I've ever had. Nothing else is quite like it. Very sweet and the freshness and undebatable...."
"A trip to Urasawa means something in the environs of thirty courses, each individually prepared, explained, and presented. A series of appetizers begin the meal, and establish a regimented tasting order; more subtle tastes first, and as the courses progre..."
"The size of the abalone alone drove me nuts, and the toro...let's not go there. There was the most beautifully marbled piece of meat lying on the back counter...."

"The food was stellar as always, overall I think this may have been the strongest trip foodwise. In terms of sushi the differences are probably too minute to tell but the kaiseki part of the meal felt even stronger than it had in the past. ..."
"He makes sure you get your money's worth by then coaxing magnificent flavor out of only the finest ingredients. (As it was told to me, because he can pay any price for fish, fishmongers save the very best for Hiro-san. Period.)..."
"The broth flavored with scallions came in what looked like thick paper folded into a bowl over a strainer basked set atop a very hot little coal fire pot. The lobster put up even more of a fight than the poor beast at Saws and actually splashed me as he f..."
"I can"t really put into words the kind of service and food we experienced; it was all delicate, profound and will be put into the "once in a lifetime� category...."
"TripAdvisor™ provides unbiased reviews, articles, recommendations and opinions on Urasawa, Beverly Hills...."
"This tiny but ultra-exclusive restaurant is surrounded by the shopping Mecca of Beverly Hills. Still, everyone who goes, from stars like Madonna to top Japanese business people, insists that it is worth every cent...."
