``Not to be confused with the growing corporate chain of `Kabuki' half-price sushi restaurants in many locations, this very small and modest Kabuki Sushi restaurant at 9701 Reseda is a very fine restaurant to which I have been bringing my family and my clients for years. The variety and freshness are great, but not quite as good as the old days, especially the 80's, when Kabuki was killer! Still this is the best sushi bar in the North Valley, especially on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, when freshness is often exceptional. Kabuki features one of the finest varieties of rolls and raw and cooked specialties in the Valley. Green tea gets an 8.5 on a scale of 1-10. It's a small place, but often busy for both lunch and dinner. Saturday night can easily be a half-hour wait or more. The salmon or yellowtail collar `special' is a great deal on the evening menu for those who want a lot but don't want to spend much money.

``Again, this is not part of the major restaurant chain, and far superior to it in atmosphere and style. ''
