Soko Sushi
"Everyone loves sushi, but few know the culinary delight dates back almost 2000 years. Well before refrigeration, Japanese fisherfolk preserved fish by wrapping it in fermented rice and salt, calling it “Narezushi.” Kept in darkened storerooms, Narezushi was perfected over the centuries until now, when modern sushi has been elevated to an art form. Soko, the latest sushi restaurant at Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, is a literal tribute to the origins of sushi. The name “Soko” means “storeroom,” and Soko is, in fact, set in a simple storeroom on our main-floor lobby.Born and raised in Hakodate, Hokkaido Japan, Sushi Chef Masa Shimakawa delivers a Master Class in refined technique, presentation, and quality."

Exquisite cuisine. I had the omakase menu, which was 6 courses of perfection. The restaurant is a tiny, 8 seat counter with two tables outside. Chef is welcoming and truly very kind. Service was prompt and friendly. First course was a chilled egg custard. This had a wonderful balance between salinity and sweetness of the lobster buried in the egg. A dollop of uni on top added just the finish. Next was a bowl of ankimo. Sweet, rich, with a nice contrast with acidity and a bit of spiciness. Third course was a soy cured tuna. This was finished with a quail yolk, mountain yam, and daikon sprouts, and black truffle. Truly decadent with perfectly balance flavors and a nice contrast in textures. Very creative, beautiful to look at, and a delight to eat. Next came a rather pretty bowl of sashimi. This may be the best raw shrimp I have ever had. Of course the toro and salmon were superb. This came with freshly grated wasabi and a rich soy sauce. Fifth was a parade of nigiri. Highlights included a fabulous uni, but each selection was top notch. Last but not least was a crab miso soup with mushrooms, bok choy, and a nice accent of spice from gochujang. A perfect way to end an exquisite meal. This rivals some of the top sushi restaurants I’ve been to. Truly a fabulous visit!
best sushi place in Santa Monica! Some of the dishes we ordered are Ankimo, Assorted Amuse Bouche.Food: 5/5
Absolutely pure, simple, fresh & delicate! Be sure to inquire about daily off-menu items- the white salmon was sublime! No reservation. First come, first serve.
I was staying in the fairmont and visited soko sushi on my first night in town. The fish was amazing quality and the menu had a great variety of choices both omakase and a La carte. I got the bluefin tuna platter and the toro was incredible and it was a lot of food. Masa and Donna were a pleasure to chat with and they guided me through the menu. The sushi bar environment was very intimate and enjoyable. I definitely recommend!
Wow! Our meal at Soko was so wonderful! The fish is incredibly fresh and expertly prepared. All of the dishes were beautiful and, most importantly, delicious. Antonia was so gracious and knowledgeable and the sushi chefs were very kind. It was so fun to sit at the bar and watch their talents. I look forward to returning and highly recommend if you are looking for excellent quality sushi.
My wife and I saved the best for last on our trip to Santa Monica. Excellent fish, great cocktails and a gracious staff. Chef Masa is clearly a master of his craft, and kind as well we had a lovely chat with him at the end of our meal. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town. Highly recommended.
Masa pop up at Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica, Chu-toro and yellowtail were our favorites! Akihiko is Amazing, We highly recommend !
I am not a big sushi fan, but the delicious meal I had at Soko made me a believer. The chef was very gracious to accommodate our last minute request- I did not reserve ahead. The fish melted in my mouth with indescribable delicious taste, there was no need for any sauces or additional flavor- it's like time stopped and I was caught in Sushi ecstasy. There is a moment when the fish melts in your mouth and suddenly you get what Sushi really is ; I would make the trip to Santa Monica once more- just to have this again; this is sushi to the next level; I highly recommend it.
This new pop up from Chef Masa is a must try. Located inside the Fairmont Miramar hotel, it is top-quality sushi in an intimate, 8-seat setting. The blue fin tuna platter is the must, then pick your favorite fish because it’s all fantastic! The menu is simple & classic—as said by the restauranteur dining next to us Jeffrey from Heroic Italian, “A simple menu allows you to do every dish better,” and that is perfectly true for Soko.
Excellent excellent excellent! This is the best sushi I’ve had in Los Angeles and by far the best experience at a sushi restaurant. Chef Masa and his crew made it feel as if I were in Japan. This is a spot for genuine sushi lovers. What a treat!!
