Sushi & Whiskey

Chic. Modern. Sophisticated. But also casual and friendly. The Venue is the cool hot spot on El Paseo, popular with locals, out-of-town visitors and food critics who serve up rave reviews. The Venue is artful, from its sleek décor to the original, ever-evolving menu, enthusiastically created by owner/chef Engin Onural. "This is my art," he shares. "Each plate is a painting, but I use fish instead of paint."

    Best sushi in the CV no question. But what happened to the prices. Used to be about $130 for two, now $180. Wasn’t expecting that! Still, can’t beat the quality.

    Really good sushi, amazing service in a walkable part of town. The rolls were great, had a nice cocktail, service was patient and friendly. It is slightly pricy for what it is, but I will overlook that a bit based on the quality.
