50 Best Sushi Bars near Alhambra

“Had a great dinner at Kogane again. The food and service were great. The sushi chefs were friendly and gave very interesting tidbits about the fish, process and taste. The meal lasts about 1 hr and 45 min. Since everyone eats at the same rate for each dish through the course, don't forget to be on time. :)“

“Shinkai sits low key in this multi-use complex within the heart of downtown Alhambra. We visited during their soft opening yesterday and tried out their omakase which was fresh, plentiful and delicious. Chef Alan and Dedy did a great job at the presentation on the following dishes. 1. Okinawa seaweed shooter with yamaimo and ikura 2. Jellyfish with kizami wasabi and 2 hr slow cooked abalone 3. Kumamoto oysters with green onion and ikura/uni 4. Shima aji, Chu toro and otoro 5. Sea Bream and golden eye snapper 6. Toro tartare with uni, ikura, truffle and avocado 7. Santa Barbara uni with black caviar and ikura 8. Japanese kegani 9. Black cod over mashed yam and drizzled with yuzu miso 10. Hokkaido scallop with Hokkaido uni and black caviar 11. Wagyu sushi We look forward to visiting again as they refine their processes and dishes during their soft opening. It's definitely nice to have a local sushi spot in SGV rather than having to head to LA or further for an omakase sushi dinner.“

“Glad to finally try this place and I am very pleased with our experience. Quite unexpected due to location but the food and service were amazing. We enjoyed the fresh sashimi and all the Izakaya we ordered in the picture. I will come back to this place for sure.“

“Give it a 5 1-5 great customer services great food“

“Awesome sushi place!!?I live the vibe and decoration in the restaurant ???I went with my friends and their family. The staff are very nice and the food tastes great! They have a lot of variety, including udon options! Good place to hang out with friends and is definitely a great place for family time (>^ω^<)“

“Not as good as Little Tokyo. But close!“

“Great food and great service“

“Lovely little hole in the wall in Boyle Heights! Obviously this place is very well known for being some of the oldest and most traditional food in LA and it deserves its local fame. Definitely worth a stop for a home-cooked, cozy meal. Owner was also super cute, she knew many regulars by name and was very kind. Parking was not great, area wasn't that great either but no surprises there.“

“Delicious and fresh seafood every time. The platters were amazing and the prices are very reasonable. The shop is filled with all types of snacks and additional sides to complete your meal. All the staff and chefs are super nice and very helpful. We went with Platter F & G.“

“Hidden away in the city of Los Angeles is this amazing bar that serves one of the tastiest omakase. Entering the bar, you see a bar top that seats approx 10-12 people, with a open kitchen vibe. My partner and I had a great time. The Sunday crew was very nice and attentive, engaging with the customers and making things fun! The selection of fish was amazing, definitely a different experience compared to other omakase establishments I've been to.Parking was very easy since they provided easy simple instructions on their website :). Will definitely visit again on a Sunday ??Parking: Easy to access garage and the elevator close by. Very nice :)“

“Every dish was melt in your mouth good. Some of the best sushi I’ve had at this price point. Will definitely come back, highly recommend. The shop is a smaller spot and a bit unassuming, but the food speaks for itself. The staff were also extremely friendly, allowing us to move some tables around to meet our groups needs when they weren’t too busy. Really appreciate the visit here.“

“This place is a GEM! The sushi is so fresh, and the bento box is quite literally filled to the brim with delicious pickles, salad, and rice as well. The owner is really nice, and they are incredibly polite and sweet. Definitely worth it. I hope they continue to do well!“

“My boyfriend and I got the omakase but to be honest it was not worth it, the food tasted great but you can get almost the exact same course by ordering the 10 piece nigiri from the menu for half of the price. The atmosphere is nice but not appropriate for a traditional omakase. Highly recommend, just save your money and skip out on the omakase.“

“Exceptional food! Hamachi collar, red snapper soup! And sushi. Authentic; which is why it was so good!“

“So my baby boy Jude and I went there to get some early birthday sushi everything was great. Service was ok but the food made up for it.Parking: The place is located in Uptown Whittier so for everyone that is not familiar with the area not to worry there is plenty of free parking available all in their parking lot and the streets.Kid-friendliness: It's NOT a cocktail bar it's a Family restaurant with a Sushi bar my kid had a great time.“

“10/10 I love a good sushi spot ! This place is hands down one of my fav places to get sushi from it's not your typical sushi spot where they have regular fancy rolls. Someone's less is more and this is definitely one of those it is a very basic hand roll ( seaweed , rice and your choice of fish) but it is so FRESH and quality is there !“

“I recently dined at a sushi restaurant in Pasadena. It's conveniently located close to public parking, which was a plus. The sashimi combo was excellent, and the side dishes complemented the meal perfectly. Overall, it was a great dining experience.“

“Chef is from Osaka Japan, he made great shari (slightly sweeter side as compared to Tokyo edomae purist style), nonetheless it was good texture, temperature. Most of fish from Japan. Kinmedai was excellent. So was Aji from Osaka. Tuna is from Hokkaido, taste similar to Ohma tuna, but slightly difficult. Chef knows edomae style and textures of fish, either natural or farm raised. Hope he carries more like Awabi, akagai, kohada, and more hikarimono next time. It was pleasant sushi dining experience.“

“I walk by this place daily and it's always so busy. I decided to try it for myself and it was delicious. Everything seemed fresh and full of flavor. The waiters were all super sweet and attentive to our needs. We went for lunch so it wasn't as busy as it normally is, which was nice because the space is a little tight given its all bar seating. They play good music and it's a fun atmosphere. There's plenty of street parking and valet (10-15$). I will say this spot is on the pricer side, Im not convinced the meal was worth the price give theres an omekase down the street.“

“This is a gem! I’m a big fan of Omakase sushi and this place did not disappoint. I highly recommend sitting at the bar. Service was impeccable, friendly, and always ready. Attention to detail was superb! I didn’t take any photos because they asked me to silence my phones (you can still take photos), but I wanted to be respectful and also focus on my taste buds and not my phone. Admittedly this place doesn’t look much from the outside (Weller Court could use some updates), but don’t be afraid to step inside. One suggestion for them is to have a sake pairing option as I am a sake lover. I did get their cold sake that ended up tasting wonderful, so I’m not complaining. As for price, I think it’s reasonable for an Omakase place like this. You’re really paying for the experience. Without drinks, I think it’s around $200 for a full course meal and tax/tip. Highly recommend!“

“Morihiro was a solid omakase experience, but it's not as intimate as the other elevated omakase experiences in this price range...it was pretty crowded. There were only table seats the day we went, but we still enjoyed our dinner here. I was little a taken aback by the way the unique way the rice is prepared, but it was still pretty good. All the dishes were explained and presented well but overall Morihiro just lacked that wow factor. I think I also just prefer a more intimate omakase experience.“

“I'm not sure I should say anything but so far sushi Gen is my top sushi place in LA. Chef knows what he's doing and is very accommodating and polite to all my custom requests. Def feels like a hole in the wall but there were about 20-30 people waiting when I got there at 6. The tuna belly and salon belly are some of the freshest and fattiest we've ever had. Parking attendants were rude accepting card before 6 but not accepting it after 6 and only took cash. He said if you don't have cash buy me pastries and I'll let you in -_- ok Bring $6 cash next time, lesson learned“

“The food was very good and the price was extremely cheap for a solo diner. The BOGO 50% on premium rolls lets you get 2 rolls for under $25! The service was also very polite and the inside was clean and decorated nicely. Definitely coming back next time I'm in LA.“

“Love the Chicken and pork curry. crispy outside and juicy inside. Dip it into the curry sauce, take a bite with the rice, just so comforting! I like the side dish salad to keep me have healthy balance too. Big portion for sharing.“

“My first time coming to Sushito, and will definitely be back again once my mom and I get a craving for teriyaki bowls! Was greeted very well, lady in front was very friendly, polite, and patient when I asked her questions about the menu. Was also told about their buy 2 bowls/plates get 1 free on Tuesdays!“

“Had a great meal here. I have gluten allergy and was worried they didn’t have anything gluten-free because the menu online didn’t mention it. However, I called and the person I spoke to was amazing and knowledgeable about the options. There were not tons but enough that there were things I could eat. I had the Bento box and they were able to adjust it so everything was GF. That did come with a hefty surcharge but it’s worth it to me to know it’s all safe to eat. Sashimi is also an option however nigiri and rolls are not because there is soy in the rice.I’ve knocked down my review because there are plenty of Japanese restaurants that fully accommodate gluten allergies and I’ve been told by chefs and owners that at this point it’s not hard to do.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options but next extensive. The nigiri and rolls are not GF as there is soy in the rice (as of the time of my review)“

“Best sushi in LA! Everything melted in your mouth! The fish is fresh, the price is affordable, and the service is great! It looks like a hole in the wall - but wow :)) We eat there once a week and love it! Drove all the way from Studio City to have dinner there - 2 hours each way in traffic - so that's obviously what it says :)) Haha Just love it!“

“I always wanted to try Omakase and was in LA for the day. I had the lunch special and it was unbelievable. I have been eating sushi since the early 90s and this was by far, the best I have ever had. I would highly recommend trying this place.“

“Always an amazing time here. Been coming to this location for years now. Service is second to none and food is delicious.“

“Service excellent. Ambiance very geared toward focusing on the food. Overall a great experience with a high level of quality. Our highlight unexpectedly was the Hokkaido sardines. My SO and I literally stopped and stared at each other mid-chew, astonished at how good it was. Initially they thought something was wrong after seeing us freeze, but they then realized we were just stunned from how good the dishes were.“

“A wide variety of burmese and sushi options. We ordered the samosas, Mohinga, garlic noodles with chicken and burmese milk tea. Portions sizes were perfect and everything tasted great! Service was attentive and location was convenient . Glad to have this gem of a restaurant close to home.“

“Best sushi on the West Side ❤️“

“Good food, portions & service...“

“Honestly, was amazed at how good the sushi / sashimi was at this place. Didn't expect it from a food hall. WAY better quality tasting food than a more legit mid-level sushi places. Highly recommend coming here just for this. We got another roll to go because it was so good.“

“I really enjoyed coming here for sushi, been to alot of places but this place is very surprising, don't be fool by th mail this place is extremely excellent.“

“We've been wanting to try this new restaurant and finally came by. I will say you will not regret it. The food is fresh and delicious. Flavors are on point and service is great. Plenty of parking. Ambiance is great. We'll definitely be back to try new plates. Michelada was yummy.“

“The food was amazing, our server Helen was informative & friendly. Harry came out to greet us & made sure we’re enjoying our time & meal. Will definitely be coming back to Kombu Silverlake“

“I recently dined at this exceptional sushi restaurant, and it exceeded all expectations. The quality of the fish was impeccable, and each dish was a masterpiece of flavors. The ambiance was perfect for a relaxing meal, and the staff was attentive and knowledgeable. From the presentation to the taste, every aspect of the dining experience was top-notch. I highly recommend this place to any sushi enthusiast - a true gem in the world of Japanese cuisine!“

“We have been to Sushi Enya multiple times. The sushi is some of the best I have had the chefs are at the front of the restaurant and put on quite a show. They have a good list of beers and sake. Expect to spend about $100 a person Service is spot on, and the restaurant has tiny inside and on a patio area. The ambience is casual. The noise level can be loud depending on the groups in the restaurant. Parking is on the street with meters.“

“best japanese rich fllavors unique taste simple fresh and delish“

“Wanted to let everybody know Sushi in the Box's new location is in the Ranch 99 Market on Golden West in arcadia. They are now located in the food court in the far right hand corner all the way in the back. Their food is excellent and their service is very friendly always served with a smile.“

“Great rolls. Big selection.... fresh.“

“If laughter adds years to your life, Sakana Sushi Lounge just turned me into a potential centenarian. The experience was a perfect blend of a comedy club and a sushi haven, where the fish is fresh, and the puns are fresher. Right off the bat, our server greeted us with a smile and a "Welcome to Sakana, where we believe in 'soy' and happiness!" I chuckled. Little did I know, this was just the appetizer for the evening's humor. We started with the 'Tickle My Tuna' roll. A name so bold, I half expected it to come with a feather. And when the 'Giggle Eel' roll arrived with a drizzle of 'he-he-hoisin' sauce, I knew my laugh lines were getting deeper. Not sure if it was the presentation or the hilarious menu descriptions, but each roll was 'roll'-ing with laughter. The 'Sal-monologue' was next--a piece of salmon nigiri that came with an actual monologue written underneath it. The joke? "Why do sushi chefs make terrible stand-up comedians? Their routine is always too 'fishy'!" Groan and grin in equal measure. Then came the 'Maki Me Laugh' special--a chef's choice roll that was as delightfully unpredictable as a clown's pocket. Turned out to be a flavorful surprise packed with tempura crunch and a punchline of spicy mayo. And let's talk about the atmosphere. Sakana Sushi Lounge is the kind of place where the saki bombs come with a side of dad jokes and the chopstick wrappers have "how-to" guides that are more hilarious than helpful. You might learn more about comedy here than proper sushi etiquette, but who's complaining? Dessert was the 'Banana Tempur-ama'--a sweet way to cap off the night and the best fruit-based slapstick since someone slipped on a banana peel. In conclusion, Sakana Sushi Lounge serves up a sushi experience that's as delicious as it is delightful. It's the kind of place you come for the food and stay for the funnies--or is it the other way around? Either way, you'll leave with a full belly and cheeks sore from smiling. Five stars for the eatery where the 'rolls' have double meaning, and the laughter is the chef's special of the day.“

“The service is really good. The cooking time is a little exceeded in time but it is because they actually cook real food there. The teriyaki bowl was so delicious, definitely recommended would also recommend the shrimp tempura as a side dish. The only downside is the soda station because it is out of order. so not too many options to choose from when it comes to having a drink …… its still a 5 star highly recommended!!!!!!!!“

“The chef is the same from Wahoo Chaya. So long story short- the sushi is phenomenal as it was prior. I bring my wife and son here all the time and also invite other family members. I order the a la cart cut rolls such as the the albacore roll and the yellow tell. Sometimes I will order it either of them spicy. My wife loves the rainbow roll, baked mussels, and fresh oysters. My son who is two mind you like the temura udon and the rainbow roll. Yes he loves sushi. Usually our bill is around 100 including tip. If we invite others it is more. You will not be disappointed coming here. A true gem.“

“the 2 ladies working the front were friendly, prompt and attentive. they were closing withing 45 minutes of when I got there and they never made me feel like I should hurry up and eat. the best part aside from the great service was the food was amazing. definitely recommend this place.“

“High quality, friendly service“

“The Bento Box for Lunch was huge! Be prepared with an appetite! Sushi roll was good but not amazing...got the spicy tuna roll with the box and it's was bland. But the rest of food was great! Service was really good and attentive but not in your face or anything. I would definitely go back!“

Estaré feliz de ser uno de tus amigos. Si encuentra este mensaje vergonzoso, perdone mis modales. Gracias.buen servicio“

“We love this place :) The older gentleman who works there is always very friendly and helpful. It feels like a mom and pop restaurant, very cosy. I usually get udon and the popcorn roll and my partner gets the bento box. We've tried most of the dishes and enjoy them all. We keep coming back not only for the food but the warm welcome from the adorable older man who works there, he reminds us of our grandpa :)“
