the food was good. the interior is super cute but the patio is not (and pretty hot) so i’d avoid that if possible. the drinks are cool.

They marked up a menu to show me what was gluten free and everything I ate was just phenomenal!!! So nice of them to accommodate my allergy and I really enjoyed my meal and the whole experience.

Looked for a quiet restaurant and checked out n/soto. Sometimes creative sushi and sashimi is not a good thing. n/soto delivered elevated sushi, sashimi, hand rolls along with stand out casual and prompt service.
Our service person, Nicole, delivered a well detailed explanation of favz from the menu. The patio was a great space. I look forward to dining indoors in the future.
Great decor and table layout.
A nice review is unnecessary given that n/soto was fully booked.

Fernetchan cocktail was delicious. MURASA KIGORI with Pisco also solid.
Lamb skewer was incredible (best lamb I ever had; not too gamey). Pork collar and scallop skewers also delicious. The wagyu skewer I expected to be more fatty.
Chef's selection of nigiri was very good. Sea urchin particularly delicious.
Edamame was great, Snow Crab Monaka delicious.
Best bone marrow I've ever had (the miso tasted incredible).
Black cod tempura excellent, and agedashi mochi even better.
The desserts were the most disappointing part of the meal. Olive oil cake I didn't care for the olive flavor. Okinawa Yam Pudding and Mochi Profiteroles were pretty good, not amazing.
Excellent waiter and staff.
The pacing of the hot dishes was a little too fast.
Not a super comfortable indoor dining atmosphere IMO: tables too close together, bad acoustics (loud conversations seem to echo off the walls), wish the lighting was dimmer.
Pretty pricey; I didn't expect to pay $170 a person tbh. And I wasn't SUPER full afterward.
Bathroom sink water was scalding hot; they should lower the max water temp.

Excellent food and drink, friendly and warm people. The tofu, spring pea salad, and agemono dishes were our favorites; the gyutan was also amazing.
Definitely make a reservation.

Unfortunately, the food here was far too salty and heavy on sauces, which overwhelmed every dish. I had to order white rice just to balance out the flavors.
The homemade tofu came with a side sauce, which looked like ginger syrup, turned out to be a cup of soy sauce. It completely ruined the dish because they served too much soy sauce with the dish and I poured half of it in. Who serves that much soy sauce without any warning 🥲
Grilled scallops arrived cold in the center. The bavette was chewy, overcooked, and drenched in a sweet-salty sauce that overpowered the meat.
I even asked our waitress for something light and unsauced, and she recommended the chicken sausage which ironically was the saltiest and sweetest item we tried.
Ended up leaving with an unpleasant salty aftertaste. Not a great experience. Disappointing and shocked at how inedible the food was.

I love this place!
I went for my birthday and enjoyed my meal so much that I hardly took any photos.
I had toro, lamb chops (DELICIOUS), wagyu, karagge, and a delicious drink. I look forward to going back and think that is a great spot!

N/Soto was 10/10! I celebrated my birthday here with a party of 10 and the staff was accommodating, attentive, kind, and helpful. The food was great! They had a wide selection for everyone's favorite sushis + meat options for non sushi lovers. The atmosphere was also very nice; casual yet upscale! Would come back!
Great service, friendly, good menu selection, upbeat atmosphere

One of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Los Angeles. Amazing sushi and all food is high-quality made from scratch and delicious. The service is excellent and it’s well priced given the quality of food atmosphere and service. I highly recommend.

Wonderful spot for a date night for real foodies. It's a casual setting with good service and elevated food that is delicious and also a bit surprising. We loved everything we ate and would definitely go back. It's a nice change of scenery from a traditional sushi restaurant.

Good and pricy in an industrial setting

Always a great experience from start to finish here. Great variety of options and you’re able to try a lot of different items. Lamb chop and chicken karaage are personal favorites
