KazuNori: The Original Hand Roll Bar

Sooo good and fresh!

Had two recent visits, one about a month ago on my birthday that was fantastic and then (because of our great experience) one today for Father's Day that was not good at all. First time everything was great - from the food to the service. Today was really quite bad - the wait time for each roll/course was long and my wife and I got rolls at completely different times, the single diners o or left and right were served and done way before we finished and finally missed one roll for me out of my 5 roll set. Really poor service, not very friendly and it seemed that between the 2 times we went it was down to the management team.

We were just in LA for a short visit and this place was AWESOME. We felt like the value and good and it was well worth waiting in line. The salmon sashimi was particularly delightful. We ate here twice and had a great time. Lovely service as well.

You gotta go when your not in a rush. Look for the line, if it’s coming around the corner. It’s about an hour or more.

Excellent food, fast service. The fish is super fresh. These are little hand rolls of sushi. Go before 5pm to avoid a long line!

I came to this restaurant with high expectations as it was my first time trying hand rolls and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The hand rolls turned out to be fantastic and definitely worth the visit! The Toro rolls were my favorite. While there was a line, I was fortunate to have a friend already waiting for us. The seating setup caught me by surprise, as it’s bar seating rather than tables, but it added to the unique experience. Special shoutouts to our servers, Justin and Victor, who were excellent at explaining our options and attentive in checking on us throughout the meal. Overall, a great experience!

Waited an hour on a Sunday night, understandable. Ordered the 6 roll. Food was mid. All rolls tasted very similar, packed in rice. Would say the hand roll spot is OK. We went across and got burgers to get full.

Mediocre.
I am not sure why people stay in the line to dine here. The food is simple but then we thought maybe people dine here for the experience but the only thing that you experience is waiting in the line.
Food is not bad but there is nothing special about it. Menu items are limited so as seating.

This is not sushi…
Nori with hot rice and minced fish…
Just a second after I finished eating I was asked to pay and leave…
Would never come back…
Anyone looking for real sushi - not this place…

All the fish here are well cut, which may be made by cheaper fishes. Good fishes will be served as whole without being chopped. Food are WAY OVERPRICED for this quality of fish. The dining experience are great.

Casual intimate but low key sushi spot that serves delightful handrolls at a brilliant price point. Lots of positives here. Gets busy, line moves quickly but expect to wait 30ish mins during night service.
