True sushi lovers only want the best when it comes to their sushi. These spots across the nation happen to serve up the best quality raw fish around and have even been compared to the high-end sushi spots in Japan.

Masa, New York City

It is no surprise that the restaurant Sushi god Masa Takayama started in New York City is one of the best sushi spots in the world. The chef is known to be extremely calm, precise and only works with the best raw fish available. Masa is so popular that if you do not cancel your reservation in 48 hours, there will be a charge of $200 per person! But Masa is definitely worth the bill of around $450 per person. The best choices on the menu include the toro stuffed maki rolls, fugu sashimi, caviar and pretty much any dish that contains fish.

Naoe, Miami

Sushi lovers are known to flock to Naoe in Miami and the place is actually a really tiny bar that is lead by sushi chef Kevin Cory. A lot of diners have said the sushi served here is the closest thing you will get to sushi in Japan in the United States. Not only does the chef work with extremely fresh raw fish, he makes each dish into a gorgeous presentation.

Urasawa, Los Angeles

The sushi bar at Urasawa in Los Angeles only holds ten people and with it being right off of Rodeo Drive, this place is really difficult to score a seat at. Chef Hiroyuki Urasawa actually trained under the mastermind behind Masa, so some have even said this is the West Coast version of Masa. The menu changes daily, but there are always plenty of options. Urasawa will cost you a pretty penny with each person costing a little under $400 dollars, but it is well worth it.
