Mitsuru Sushi & Grill is a restaurant in Los Angeles' Little Tokyo district. They're located on First Street near the intersection of Judge John Aiso Street. This photo was taken on October 26, 2007.

Mitsuru Grill has a combination of Japanese and American favorites. It's a great mix of sushi, tempura, and other Japanese dishes mixed in with sandwiches, hamburgers, and salads. They also have a daily (or is it weekly?) fairly extensive specials menu which are hand-written and copied. It sometimes includes things like corned beef & cabbage, enchiladas, and ox-tail stew. Food is good and relatively inexpensive. Very casual. It's almost set up more like a diner, but with a sushi bar in the front.

One of the most convenient things about Mitsuru Grill is their hours. Unlike most of the restaurants in Little Tokyo, they're open 7 days a week, from 9am - 10pm Monday - Thursday; and 8am - 10pm from Friday - Sunday. (Most other restaurants open for lunch, and then close from 2-5pm before re-opening for dinner)
