What people say, in short
Asanebo in Studio City draws recommendations for sushi, including a long-time diner's praise of the nigiri and prepared dishes. Some see it as a splurge worth making, while another finds the room noisy and short on atmosphere. Commenters also question its fit for a sushi-focused outing: one considers it a stronger all-round restaurant than a sushi specialist, and another says the premium omakase emphasizes dishes other than sushi. A dissenting diner reports a disappointing return visit.
