Times Restaurant Critic S. Irene Virbila on Kiwami:
Definitely not designed by Philippe Starck, the new Kiwami sushi restaurant from Katsuya Uechi is restrained compared with the trio of Katsuya by Starck restaurants that Uechi opened with SBE. Those are fine for trendy scenesters, but serious sushi aficionados will want to beat a path to Kiwami in Studio City, which happens to be just blocks from the sushi master’s original Katsu-ya. I know, I know, the names are confusing.
