50 Best Sushi Bars near Porter Ranch

“The food and service was excellent.“

“My wife and I had dinner here on a whim and couldn’t be happier. The toro was PERFECT, and the yellowtail, bluefin, and unagi sushi were also amazing! The tempura shrimp roll was hearty and crispy. We also had the Karaage and took advantage of the happy hour for beer and sake. I must mention that our waitress was the sweetest and she was so attentive and professional. We can’t wait to come back!!“

“That sounds like a fantastic dining experience“

“I’m so gobsmacked at how amazing this food is that I’m writing a review while I’m still here.
We had 5 nigiri sushi rolls, the crispy spicy tuna appetizer, and the wagyu sliders. It was the most incredible meal I’ve ever had. You must come here - the server we had (Umida) was insanely amazing and super helpful - she really elevated the experience and made sure we didn’t order too much food!“

“Brothers Sushi is a must. Make a reservation and you can’t go wrong with anything you order.“

“First thing first, the sushi is really fresh. We got the toro, salmon belly, and the yellowtail belly. Saba is a little fishy. The rice is a bit mushy but good enough.

The cooked food is not as great. The agedashi tofu has too much breading and taste average. Kaiju tar tar is okayyy.

The service however took forever, and they never come to check up on us. Servers reach over to get dishes for other tables. Maybe they are short staffed but they should still handle us probably.“

“Phenomenal experience and the staff was excellent.“

“Wonderful experience with Chef Take! Truly a unique experience in the historical method and style chef prepares his experience.“

“Fresh and delicious. Best sushi in town.“

“it’s my first time at roll roll sushi and I was offered a free miso soup as soon as I walked in I ordered the salmon lover roll and the baked scallop roll and both were delicious. I had my dog with me so we sat outside under cute umbrellas they have out. I’m so happy I decided to try this place out if you’re in the valley you need to give it a try!“

“Excelente lugar... muy buena experiencia atención increíble!“

“Absolutely amazing menu and very accommodating people, and it’s very affordable and mostly delicious 😋.“

“Masa-san serves chef's choice, and the food is fresh and delicious. Eating here is an extremely delightful experience. The sweet shrimp with eggs is one of my favorites. Always finish your meal with at least 1 (maybe 2 or ...) of his blue crab rolls. The crab is carefully hand-pulled, the rice is warm, and the seaweed is crisp. You won't find that combination of quality and easy dining experience anywhere else in the Valley. Please try it!“

“food was fresh . sushi chefs good. nice variety.“

“My sister goes to this place for take out and the food was amazing.I will bring my family here as well.“

“A Truly Special Spot
​If you are looking for an exceptional dining experience, I cannot recommend this place enough!
​The Atmosphere: From the moment you walk in, you are embraced by a wonderfully cozy and warm environment. It feels intimate, relaxing, and incredibly inviting. We sat outside and summer evening felt so nice! Our umbrella had tiny lights on the inside.
​The Staff: The team here is genuinely some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Their kindness, warmth, and attentive care make the entire meal feel so special. Joanah was wonderful!
​The Food: The sushi is an absolute masterpiece. The quality, freshness, and delicate flavor of the fish are so perfectly balanced that you do not even need a single drop of soy sauce. It completely stands on its own!
​This restaurant is a rare gem with so much heart, and I will absolutely be coming back.

I really recommend the 007 sushi!
Also the non alcoholic beer was really good!“

“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“

“If you love sushi, GO HERE. If you like fancy rooms and big windows? Maybe not. Go’s Mart is a hole-in-the-wall masterpiece. The place is unpretentious orange walls, simple bar seating but Chef Go shows off with whiteboard daily catches, rare fish, and “did you just say gold leaf?” moments. It’s not casual eating. It’s an experience. The price tag made me pause, but each bite justifies it. Friendly service, no fluff, just sushi done really well.“

“Here's a polished review in the style of a seasoned food critic:

There are very few restaurants that can maintain both excellence and consistency for more than two decades, and this remarkable sushi destination in Tarzana is one of those rare exceptions. For the past 26 years, they have quietly set the standard for what authentic Japanese hospitality and uncompromising quality should look like.

What immediately stands out is the unwavering commitment to the finest ingredients. Every piece of sushi and sashimi reflects exceptional freshness, precision, and respect for the product. Witnessing the tuna cutting on-site is a testament to their dedication to quality—something true sushi enthusiasts will genuinely appreciate. Every detail, from the knife work to the presentation, is executed with remarkable care.

A great restaurant is built by great people, and the chefs—Archy, Scott, Paul, and Saito—are true masters of their craft. Their experience, consistency, and passion are evident in every plate they prepare. Beyond their technical skill, they create an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and effortlessly professional.

What truly completes the experience is the hospitality. The service is warm, attentive, and sincere, making every visit feel like returning to a place that genuinely values its guests. It is this perfect harmony of extraordinary ingredients, meticulous craftsmanship, and heartfelt service that has allowed this restaurant to remain one of Tarzana's most treasured culinary gems for over a quarter of a century.

Without question, this is a well-deserved five-star establishment and a destination every serious sushi lover should experience.“

“Went here for my birthday after friends recommended - had no idea how cool this place would be! From the outside, you definitely don't expect it to be as special as it is inside. We loved the little bites we got. For two of us, it came to about $180 (we ordered about 8 things so not bad). Our favorites were the yellowtail cilantro roll, crispy shrimp & yellowtail sushi. A little bit of a backup when we first arrived (drinks came after our apps came) but I guess they got a rush that they didn't expect. We'll definitely be back, not enough places like this in the area! Loved. :)“

“this was my first time eating here and I was incredibly impressed. the sushi is very fresh and the rolls are fantastic! the service was also excellent! Will definitely be back.“

“I love Kinza. It’s a cute but no pretension type of sushi spot! Their rolls come with 10 pieces (not 8) AND you can order half size rolls even for their specialty rolls which is INCREDIBLE. Very fresh, flavorful, lots of good combos, and service is excellent.

If you can’t find parking on the street, park in the alley behind the restaurant!“

“Got two rolls and the sashimi combo. Sexy lady and something with salmon and cream cheese. Both were fire. The sashimi combo was so fresh and delirious. I found this place on a whim and I’m so grateful I did. The owner was such a sweetheart. I’ll definitely be coming back here again.“

“Great Sushi! Top Quality!“

“Our new go to sushi place. First time eating at this place and we were blown away how delicious everything we ordered. We got 2 bento boxes (salmon and beef) tonkatsu ramen (thick slices of chashu!!!) and 2 specialty rolls - Venus and Uranus. Wow!...we are planning to go back to complete the taste of this heavenly solar system.

To top it off, staff were awesome...KANPAI!“

“Now it is Osumo Sushi- the food is still just as good as it when it was run by mostly Japanese people. Jose and the others were super nice. First time eating since the change of ownership in 2020. Did time go by that quickly?? lol

Have been eating here for 7 years now -it is our favorite go to place when we have friends or family visiting from out of town, or a celebration.
The staff has always given us something for free- sake, mochi, or an extra roll.
I dislike fish, but decided to give it a go here. I am hooked! Pun intended!

The food has always been fresh, and the prices are better than you would find at most places. It is never very crowded, except for Friday and Saturday nights.
Everyone we bring to Sumo Sushi- even from other countries say the food is better than average.

It's the best kept secret in the valley!“

“Good food and service. I enjoyed it.“

“Love Jo&Go Sushi. They saved me when we first moved to LA and while the house was being remodeled.

4 years later... it's still as good as first discovered. It's a neighborhood gem inside the Korean Greenland Mrkt, which btw, is also awesome.

Must try is the salmon bowl, the salmon slices are so tender and buttery... they give you a crazy amount of salmon over the rice and seriously it's enough to have a 2nd meal! One note about the bowl... I'm not a fan of drenching really good cooked rice with sauce, so I always order without the sauce. The rice is not sushi rice which makes it even more delicious... the rice is always perfectly cooked. You get a miso soup and a cute little container of pickled radish (delish). I would love to know where they source the fish... it's like being in Japan, it's so fresh.

I'll be catering with them soon and happy to update the review post order.

The kind woman who takes the order is so sweet and cute, always smiling...says hi and bye all the time.

If you're in the area, definitely give it a try for takeaway.“

“Been coming here for decades still my favorite.“

“Very tasty food. A bit pricey, but worth it.“

“Amazing food. Never tried anything like that before. Fresh, unique, great presentation.“

“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.“

“Otto Sushi has been our favorite sushi place for years, and honestly, no matter how many other places we try, we always come back.

One thing we love most is consistency. Every single time we order, we know exactly what we’re going to get: incredibly fresh fish, beautifully prepared rolls, and food that is clearly made with care and attention to detail. There’s never any disappointment and never any guessing whether this order will be as good as the last one.

What sets Otto Sushi apart is the quality. The fish is always fresh and flavorful, the portions are generous, and every ingredient feels thoughtfully selected. Nothing tastes mass-produced or rushed. The sauces, seasonings, and flavor combinations are balanced perfectly, allowing each ingredient to shine without overwhelming the others.

It’s hard to describe, but you can genuinely taste the difference between sushi that’s simply made and sushi that’s crafted by people who care about what they’re serving. Every bite feels fresh, clean, and incredibly satisfying.

At this point, whenever we place an order, we actually look forward to its arrival because we know Otto Sushi will never let us down. The food is always delicious, consistently high-quality, and prepared with the same attention to detail we’ve come to appreciate over the years.

Thank you, Otto Sushi, for setting the standard so high and for being our go-to place whenever we’re craving great Japanese food. Highly recommended!“

“Love this place treat you like family“

“Had an amazing experience at Shiso Sushi Sherman Oaks The sushi was extremely fresh, high quality, and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality of the fish in every bite.

“I’ve been here a few times now and it’s my new favorite sushi spot. The food is fresh to death with a mix of classic favorites and fun new dishes (the cilantro roll is to die for). Ben has been my waiter twice and I love the banter with him as much as the food. 10/10, chef’s kiss.“

“My favorite sushi in the valley and the prices can’t be beat“
