``Tucked away on a Japan-town stretch of Sawtelle, I have been to Hide several times. Whether you go to Hide for lunch or dinner, the place is likely to be crowded, with 10 minute to 40 minute waits not uncommon. Depending on when you go, the freshness varies from quite good to exceptional, and the tea is terrific. The uni is among the freshest in LA, however I have noticed that they have a tendency, though not universal, to pre-cut their hamachi and some other fish as well...too bad. But the turnover is so high that it almost doesn't matter. The hamachi is darn good, at $3.30 an order, competitively priced. It's hard to find a west side bar with much fresher fish. As usual, I think the regulars get slightly larger portions. MSG factor on the miso soup was fairly high, with heavy dry mouth and slightly swollen tongue effect after visit. Nevetheless, highly recommended.''
