Terrible service, and yet they come up to you afterward and complain when you leave a 10% tip.

The food was great! The drinks are amazing, the restaurant looks very nice and elegant. But the service can be better and much friendlier.
We made reservations for 10:45 and didn't get seated until 11:25 and then once we were sat we didn't get checked on at all by waiters and mandatory tip
We made a reservation for Valentine's Day, when we arrived we were sat at the bar to which I asked if we could take a table, but were told only outside lol. The inside is nice and looks like a classy restaurant but once you're outside it's like a strip mall sushi bar. I was a bit disappointed. Moving on, the food was delicious the fish is very fresh and almost buttery so so good! The service was also very good although one of our rolls wasn't event cut completely thru and eating it was difficult and messy nonetheless the flavor was there. Would I go back? Yes. Would worry about making a reservation? No.
Fish HELLA fresh Service was triste, but to be fair it was Valentine's day. The dragon roll and creamy langostino 🤌
Terrible, unnavigable website. Can’t even see the menu without doxxing myself. Happy hour deals are terrible
We decided to have some appetizers after the lste show at Orpheum theatre. So we ordered the shrimp appetizer ,calamari ,vegetable tempura and gyozas… All of them were terrible the calamari the toughest I ever encountered. Vegetable tempura served raw ,the 3 shrimp with cream cheese horrible… never had such terrible food … so disappointed to start the new year with such a horrendous meal . I wish I can get the money back…the only good thing was the beer!!!

Sakana was the best hands down. Service was fast, great customer service, very classy, clean, with nice music, fresh food, and a great vibe.
I am a Sushi connoisseur and would highly recommend Sakana! Good selection of great tastings rolls and the nigiri was fresh and ample in the portion size. Fun and lively ambiance and the staff was on point! Great stop for a date or group.
Good quality fish, poor execution with sloppy rolls and unevenly cut fish. Happy hour is confusing with limit by table regardless of party size. Cocktails were good

The food and staff are great. But the portions are tiny. I’ve lived in downtown for a couple years and i’ve only been a couple times for a reason. The quality is good but half the serving of anywhere else. I paid 140 dollars including tip to get full at dinner tonight, by myself. Not worth it. Little tokyo nearby has better places. I feel cheated as a local that lives 2 blocks away, and this is what my choices are, no thank you.

Looking for a sushi place in downtown LA that opens late up to 2am? You’re in the right place!
I tried:
1. Scallop /toro & truffle caviar
2. Sushi: yellow tail, fresh water eel,
3. Sashimi: sweet shrimp, Japanese scallop, squid, octopus
4. Soft shell crab with wasabi guac
5. Steamed clams with garlic
6. Scallop ceviche with yuzu
7. Combination Yaki udon with stired fried chicken, shrimp, baby scallop, mixed vegetables, tuna flakes (hot plate)
8. Fried shrimp head
To be honest it is just a fair experience. Food is basic. Atmosphere is boring and the whole place looks worn down.
