Detroit Red Wings fans have a tradition of throwing an octopus on the ice when a goal is scored. Hungry Kings fans choose instead to seek out the fresh sushi at this Venice favorite.

In Venice, Hama Sushi is a lively nighborhood joint near the beach filled with surfers and Westside execs elbow-to-elbow at the sushi bar. On the Premier/Suite level of the Staples Center, Hama is much more straightforward: Sports fans sit elbow-to-elbow with more sports fans. Just the same, the restaurant offers surprisingly fresh, even creative, sushi to a crowd that seeking cuisine more healthy than the Premier Level's zeppelin-sized hot dogs and decadent dessert carts.
