50 Best Sushi Bars near Newhall

“Cool little sushi bar off the beaten path that does all you can eat. Found this place on social media and had to try it. Family made it a sushi adventure trip with about an hour drive. Not disappointed at the experience. Half the family did the all you can eat, allowing us to share, while the others ordered what they wanted. No one was disappointed or left hungry.“

“When I visit my mom in the valley, she enjoys going to Katsuya for lunch. I always have a smile seeing only Latinos making sushi behind the counter. Imagine going to a nice Mexican restaurant and seeing an all Japanese kitchen? Anyways, the sushi quality is good, not great. My moms favorite is the miso cod which costs double in Century City. I was told Katsuya is an independent chain and it's up to the owners the price they set“

“Easily my new favorite sushi spot in the 818. I only started coming here recently, but every single time it’s been a 10/10 🔥🔥 The sushi is always fresh, you can really taste the quality. The customer service is one of the best parts too everyone’s super friendly, welcoming, and always takes care of you ! The vibe is great, the hospitality never misses, and it’s one of those spots you keep wanting to come back to. Definitely recommend checking it out“

“Yummmmmmy!!!! Great sushi and friendly staff. It’s a little pricey but great quality so it’s worth it =}“

“If you live in Stevenson Ranch or anywhere in the SCV and still think you need to drive over the hill for truly high-quality sushi, it’s time to discover Ananto Sushi.

This place is the definition of a hidden gem — although it probably won’t stay hidden for long.

What makes Ananto special isn’t flashy decor or a giant trendy dining room. The restaurant is small, simple, and understated. But honestly, that’s part of the charm. They focus on what actually matters: exceptional fish, consistency, and genuine hospitality.

Chef Tim is the real deal. Every cut of fish tastes carefully selected and expertly prepared, with the kind of precision and quality you normally expect from high-end Ventura Boulevard sushi spots — except here, you don’t have to waste time fighting 405 traffic to get it. The sushi is clean, balanced, fresh, and crafted with obvious skill and care.

What really stands out are the little details that serious sushi lovers notice immediately. Even the wasabi contains real pieces of wasabi instead of the typical bland paste most places serve. It’s touches like that that show Chef Tim truly cares about quality and authenticity in every part of the meal.

But what keeps people coming back over and over is the family atmosphere. Chef Tim and his wife make you feel like a regular even on your first visit. The service is warm, welcoming, and personal in a way that’s becoming rare these days. You’re not just another table — you genuinely feel taken care of.

Another huge plus is the value. Ananto offers dinner specials, combo specials, fresh daily specials, and high-quality fish at prices that feel incredibly reasonable for the quality you’re getting. Whether you’re ordering nigiri, sashimi, specialty rolls, or one of their dinner combos, the consistency is always there.

The SCV has plenty of sushi spots, but very few places combine this level of fish quality, consistency, hospitality, and value. That’s why Ananto Sushi has quietly become one of the top sushi restaurants in Santa Clarita Valley for people who truly appreciate good sushi.

Stevenson Ranch residents are lucky to have this place nearby. Once word fully gets out, people are going to realize they no longer need to drive to Sherman Oaks, Studio City, or LA for premium sushi experiences.

Simple interior. Exceptional food. Family service. Consistent quality.

That’s exactly why people keep coming back — and why Ananto Sushi won’t stay hidden much longer.“

“Everything is clean, the staff are nice, the food is really good and pretty cheap considering it's in SoCal and next to Magic Mountain. We always stop by when we're traveling up north. If you visit you should try the Caterpillar and Rainbow Rolls.“

The service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and welcoming without ever feeling intrusive. The ambiance was equally impressive, with a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere that made the entire meal even more enjoyable.

If you’re looking for excellent sushi, great service, and a wonderful dining experience, I highly recommend this restaurant. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Hidden gem doesn't even begin to describe To Die For Sushi. Nestled in a humble space in Northridge, this place is so unassuming you might walk right past it--but don't. Because once you walk in and sit at the bar, you'll realize you've discovered one of the best sushi experiences in all of Los Angeles.

Chef Danny is a true artist. We had front-row seats to his craft and were mesmerized watching him turn simple ingredients into edible masterpieces. Every slice, every plate--pure precision and passion.

We shared a bento box with mixed tempura, mixed sushi, and sashimi, and were blown away by the variety and balance. The Heart Attack (fried jalapeño stuffed with cream cheese and topped with spicy tuna) was absolute fire--bold, indulgent, and perfectly crispy.

The Toro and salmon were melt-in-your-mouth perfection--fresh, buttery, and honestly some of the best I've had anywhere in L.A.

Our server, Samantha, was fantastic--warm, attentive, and clearly knew the menu well. She made great recommendations and timed everything perfectly.

This place is a sushi lover's dream, without the pretense or the inflated prices of trendy spots. The prices are really affordable and the quality top notch. I have paid a lot more for so much less elsewhere. Do yourself a favor and sit at the bar--watch the magic happen, savor every bite, and thank me later.

“Tried this spot for a quick sushi fix—overall it was just okay. It gets the job done if you’re in a hurry, but it’s not somewhere I’d go out of my way for. The sushi felt closer to room temperature than fresh and chilled, which took away from the experience.

That said, the staff was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. Nothing terrible, just not very memorable. Good for convenience, but not a standout sushi spot.“

“J are server was nice and very helpful“

“Everything....A+++++. Clean and the food for take out was great!“

“So I had a situation where there was an issue with the delivery.And when I called the restaurant, the person working.There was kind of like she couldn't do nothing about it.And proceed to hang up.I called back, spoke to the owner.He personally delivered the food to me.No hiccups happened in business.But when you make it right, that's the true way of knowing customer service and satisfaction.Thank you kevin“

“This Food Truck is a gem to us, for the rolls we get, Sur sushi is convenient and we enjoy the sushi. We order often and have never had a problem. You can call or text to place your order. The cashier is very friendly. They are not open Mondays or Tuesdays and are only open evenings. If your not up for dealing with a restaurant even for take out, check this place out.“

“The best yellow tail Nelly sushi ever“

“friendly staff great food, great atmosphere“

“Who thought that classic American fare and Japanese cuisine could mesh so well??!!“

“Such a delicious crunch roll. Great menu and prices. The staff is welcoming. Its not super close to home but close to UCLA medical. I ve already been back. Two doors down is Starbucks. Grab an iced coffee, return and the food is ready for pick up. The lady who rang up my order is wonderful.
Enjoy! JC.“

“I lived in NYC for 7 years and in LA for 7 years now and I didn't expect to find my favorite poke place in Santa Clarita but this is my absolute favorite poke place of all I tried without a doubt. Always great value and fast service here. For $16 you get several scoops of protein, lots of toppings, sauces, free miso soup and seaweed most days only unavailable when they run out. One of the most delicious, satisfying, and nourishing meals you can get eating out in this economy. My favorite sauces are Yuzu and spicy ones (Lava or Volcano or Sriracha). I like this place so much so that it ruined other poke places for me! For vegetarians they have tofu. Thank you Deep Sea Poke for many generous meals in the last several years 💙“

“One of my favorite sushi place to eat with my love ones and children. I love the taste of their food and sushi and raw sushi are fabulous. Service is good and friendly. Highly recommend this place.“

“😁😁 Great Place to Dine !“

“The food was well made, came out quicker than expected, food came hot and offered additional sauces because i sat down. The music was nice and added a calm and relaxing environment. I think this is a great place to stop by on your lunch break and was pretty affordable so i also recommend if you’re on a budget. Would def go again“

“Love the crunch rolls, sushi, and the Michelada😋 the Ramen was not very hot so we had it reheated. The churro was a bit too hard. The servers were very friendly and attentive though:)“

“O Sushi is our family’s favorite! Long time sushi lovers, we’ve been to many different restaurants over the years, and consider O’s one of the best. Their tuna tataki tops all! 😍“

We also celebrated two birthdays with them fantastic entertainment amazing food and the price was absolutely within reason. Def recommend and we will be eating there every time we come down. Thank you so much. From Taft Tigersharks!“

“This is a hidden gem in Castaic! I was blown away by how delicious the Tonkotsu Black Garlic ramen was. The pork was cooked perfectly, the eggs were phenomenal, and the broth was hearty! I am from LA and have been to many delicious spots, so I have a knack for finding authentic ramen. This is by far the best ramen in Santa Clarita that I have tried. I also got the brown sugar milk tea with boba and that was delicious as well!“

“We had both sushi and ramen. The sushi was VERY good, nice cuts and plentiful! The ramen was very tasty, slightly smoky flavor. Will definitely be coming back“

“We order, California Roll, dynamite( baked scallops) Teriyaki chicken and rice 🍚 Baked Salmon, Marylin Monroe, Volcano sushi 🍣 And others“

“I love sushi, it's our go-to place. My son loves this place. He even made sure to come here to celebrate his birthday. friendly staff. I have tried quite a few places in the SC valley. So far, this is the only place we have found consistent with the foods.“

“Fast and courteous service! Good selection of food!“

“Sansai Japanese Grill has become one of my favorite spots for a quick and satisfying meal. The food is consistently fresh, portions are generous, and everything is prepared right in front of you. I especially enjoyed the chicken teriyaki plate, beef bowl, and salmon with steamed rice. The California rolls and spicy tuna rolls were also surprisingly good for a casual grill restaurant. The vegetables were crisp, the meat was tender, and the sauces added just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the dishes. The staff was friendly, service was fast, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. A great place for anyone looking for tasty Japanese-inspired food at a reasonable price.“

“First time trying it even in the valley for 20+ yr…….and this restaurant is amazing. The fish was so fresh and delicious. The uni toast and toro toast are the must order dishes. The scallop was also amazing. Great service and good decor. Great place for a date or thang out with friends.“

“As you enter you are greeted by an open and spacious space. The sushi bar area is nicely decorated and looks well maintained. The entire restaurant is meticulously clean with everything in its place.

Service is attentive and gracious. I ordered the Chicken Karaage Curry and my mom ordered the Salmon Collar. When our food arrived it looked fantastic. The Chicken Karaage looked really crunchy. I ate a piece off the top and it was extremely crunchy, my expectations were high. I dipped a piece of chicken into the curry sauce, but the sauce seemed bland. As I ate it was clear the chicken was incredible, but the curry sauce was broken. There were multiple signs of separation. Some parts were watery and bland, other parts were thicker with stronger flavor. In the picture separation can be seen around the edges of the sauce. Another issue is the rice was room temperature and the grains were starting to tighten and did not mix well with the curry sauce. The disappointing thing is both issues could have easily been fixed before serving. The curry sauce was an easy fix and the rice just had to be warmed. Small things really do make a big difference. I would give the Chicken Karaage alone a 5 out of 5, but with the curry sauce and rice, I would knock that down to a 3.5 out of 5. If everything was freshly made I'm sure it would have been a 5 out of 5.

This is a Sushi Bar and I didn't even try the sushi, so I can't say much about it. However, the prices are very reasonable and definitely worth a try.

Overall the issues were minor. So, this is a place worthy of a shot.“
