• Saijo opened on April 2 in Culver City, where The Detour Bistro Bar was located. The space has been transformed into a highly stylized 24-seat countertop space with an open kitchen. A spin-off of Robata JINYA, Saijo focuses exclusively on its most popular hand rolls and robata dishes. It offers two traditional items: hand rolls (temaki) and grilled skewers (kushiyaki). The entire menu is a testament to the founder’s commitment to quality and flavor. To go with its premium nori are a variety of premium meats: A5 Miyazaki wagyu, pork belly chashu, chicken, shrimp, unagi (grilled eel) and Chilean sea bass. . . .
