Very delicious sushi spot that just blends in with majority of the closed shops near it, especially since the entrance was roped off as if it was actually closed, from the outside.If you’re looking for a kikkoman soy sauce spot, this isn’t for you.Ordered two carpaccios, one with fresh wasabi and ponzu, can’t remember the fish, and another carpaccio, think either halibut or albacore, that had yuzu juice and mushroom and those two dishes were phenomenal. Every bite was simply amazing and irresistible. Great fish quality, not a single piece was questionable in appearance, texture, taste; the quality was delicious.The assorted tempura was crunchy, the batter didn’t disintegrate when you dipped it and didn’t break up when you were biting it. A delicious batter that kept its integrity and highlighted the beauty of each ingredient being used. Loved having a tempura mushroom and the white fish was a unique and different touch.The nigiri- where the begin. All of it was delicious. For a party of two, we each walked away with eating $190 each which is a lot for how much we ordered truthfully but because the quality of the food was better that majority of the places we had, it was worth it and can’t wait to go back. No alcohol either. It was a treat to eat here and treat ourselves. The most delectable and fragile scallops that just melt in your mouth, the albacore was a dance in your mouth as well as anything else that had a drop of yuzu on it. Ended my experience with uni and it was pure velvet. The most underwhelming item I ate was a spicy tuna since I was genuinely curious but I wouldn’t order that again and just stick with nigiri.Each nigiri order is 1 piece and sashimi is 2 pieces. Thank you Jinpachi for a cozy atmosphere and a delicious treat- can’t wait for more!

10/10 for sushi quality. Took my super picky friend here and he said this was the best sushi he's ever had in LA! I will say it's definitely top 3, will be coming back again and again. The service was super quick too and the price was not bad for the quality of the fish.

There are some sushi places where the only things you should order are the Americanized dishes..and then there are others where the fish quality is so good, the authentic options are what you should stick with. Jinpachi is the latter.We tried the yellowtail serrano sashimi, salmon sushi, toro scallion roll, and yellowtail roll, all of which were amazing. We also ordered a spicy tuna roll, crispy rice spicy tuna, and lemon roll. The lemon roll was pretty awful, the lemon on it was extremely bitter, which was disappointing. Even with the lemon removed, the fish quality didn't seem quite as fresh as in the sashimi. Jinapachi doesn't offer many specialized rolls, but based on our experience, they are doing you a favor by not offering them.If quality sushi and sashimi is what you are after, you'll have a fantastic experience in a unique space in West Hollywood.

It is solid, if not spectacular sushi option at the busy stretch of Santa Monica Blvd. Friendly unpretentious place, competent service, fairly reasonable prices, and good sashimi/nigiri/rolls options. Fresh and sushi grade, needless to say, but didn't have wow factor for me. Still, quite good!

Simply excellent. I'm worried that these types of Japanese restaurants are fading. This place totally reminds me of what Nippon used to be in Toluca Lake. High level of craft is what you need when the dish only has two components. The best part, no kewpie with siracha anywhere ;)
Some of the best sushi we’ve ever had - it’s expensive (dinner for two with a bottle of wine was $360 including tip) but worth every penny! The oysters, octopus carpaccio and scallop nigiri were highlights of an utterly wonderful smorgasbord.
