“My girlfriend and I have been watching Jade for a year and FINALLY took a leap! I just landed back in LA from a vacay and was determined to go to Jade. My gf and I went, I resy, just decided based on timing. We ordered the DIY Hand Roll, Hamachi Crudo and Spicy Crispy Tuna. This was enough as we took food home. Every dish was fire. The fish was fresh, the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice was unique and the flavor of all the dishes hit! Our server, Soyol was so humble and truly has a servant heart, 5 stars!!!! So glad we can this night as everyone from the door to our server were perfect and the food took the exit the experience to the next level!“

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

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!“

“Must get sushi, but don’t forget the corn tempura and momotaro tomato (seasonal). Awesome sake selection too.“

“Great service and food💗 There are many alcohol menus and food items that other restaurants do not have, and the restaurant is not too big, so you can enjoy a relaxing, calm and stylish time. There is plenty of space for parking, and I would definitely go back‼︎“

“I really love this place! Cocktails menu is amazing, the Lychee Mojito 10/10, always a must for me.
Place was packed, of course it was a Friday night and the Lakers were playing, I recommend making s reservation.
Despite how busy the place was, out server David took care of us, great service and delicious food!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“seats 10 for a personalized tour of sushi for the purist. exceptional style and quality of fish. superbly presented by a Michelin star chef on front of you. book far in advance“

“Fresh, healthy food w generous portions. I had the hana salad w chicken and the iced matcha cloud latte. The salad was fresh and their sauce/condiment bar made it extra tasty. The matcha was super yummy, on par or better with any specialty coffee/tea place. The Okinawa sugar made it elevated, though I ordered it less sweet. Will def be back!“

“Everything is delicious, made with love❤️ Clean, elegant, and delicious🤩😋 Friendly, helpful staff🌹“

“Always amazing genuine food! I always order from here and they always get it right. The #2 special is always my go to and they make it so good every single time. A little older of a building but don’t let the looks scare you away, their food is wonderful and so are the people behind the counter!“

“Fresh and delicious. Best sushi in town.“

“Absolutely fantastic experience! The food was fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. Every dish was full of flavor and clearly made with high-quality ingredients.

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!“

“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!“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“Amazing fresh old school sushi ❤️❤️❤️❤️. The owner is so friendly and knowledgeable and it’s now my happy place!“

“If there’s one thing I love, it’s teriyaki plus. This restaurant is so inconspicuous and a sleeper hit of the area. It’s charming and the food is well priced and so flavorful. We got the katsu bowl, the gyoza and chicken kabobs. All perfect. I can’t quite explain why this place is so cute and charming but as soon as you step inside you can feel that you’re walking in to your new favorite restaurant.“

“Great place, delicious food and cozy atmosphere“

“Easily the BEST Sushi in SoCal. Been to many high and low, NOTHING compares to this. Incredible rolls, perfect fusion of sauces and pairings/toppings, pricey yes, but superior in every way. Much better comfort and variety than other version waaay down the road on Ventura Blvd. Their mushroom soup is to die for, and they have not only a soy sauce but a YUZU bottle on the table!“

“This place has the absolute BEST Oyakodon and curry. I know people focus on the ramen but for real, it’s the closest we’ve gotten to food in japan since we got back from our trip. INCREDIBLE and they have thai tea and milk tea that’s delicious!!“

“Really good food fresh and the ramen is soooooo yummy“

“Hole in the wall teriyaki place. You order at the counter, you pick up your food, you clean up your own table after eating. Easy free parking lot or street parking. They have a lunch special for $11.95 that includes chicken and rice with salad. They also have specials A, B, C and D that are around the $15 to $20 price range. I had the special C that had white rice, a big piece of chicken katsu, two pieces of chicken teriyaki, salad, two small onion rings and two dumplings for about $15.95. Not a bad value. You get a teriyaki sauce and hot sauce on the side. Their teriyaki sauce is very good here! The serving is very generous. I was not about to finish it in one sitting.“

“Izakaya has some of the best quality fish in Simi Valley. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I love this place, and wanted to have my birthday dinner there. I was a bit hesitant because my family is a large group of 18 but they were very accommodating, attentive, and were able to make it a wonderful experience for me and my family. Thank you Kopan Ramen!“

“I! Absolutely! LOVE this place!! The owner (at least, I assume he's the owner bc he's the only one I've seen every single time I've come in) (edit: manager?) is a total sweetheart, and the food is delicious! I brought my friends here a couple weeks back and they both loved what they got (two half-n-half Korean corn dogs, 1 order of gyoza), and I've been consistently getting the teokbokki (is that how it's spelled?) for however long it's been. I'm hoping to try the fried chicken at some point, but for now the cupbokki in particular (same thing but smaller serving) is my go-to post-library dinner :) Please eat here!!“

“Excellent food 🥘! Always hot and fresh. A treat every time.“

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

“Exquisite cuisine- chef was formally trained in Japan and his expertise shines through in every dish. Particularly the lightest, crispiest tempura once could ever hope to enjoy. Attentive, perfect service. Only knock is that it’s quite expensive, making this a once-every-five-years kind of culinary experience. That being said, we will be talking about this meal for weeks. It was *that* good. Life is short: treat yourself!“

“This place is the Go-To spot for sushi.. always fresh and delicious 😋“

“The menu is unique and named creatively, which I found charming. The food was well-made, and made in ample time. The service was amazing and the cashier walked me through the process, being very nice the whole time. The roll I ordered and the tea were delicious, and I'd love to come by again soon.“

“Pretty much everything it is always the best and freshest fish in town! The best oysters on the half shell, Uni, yellowtail belly, the seafood salad is really delicious, (as well as their salmon skin salad)! Another favorite is the ELhand roll (it’s almost a meal in itself)! You really cannot go wrong with anything you order there! Five stars for sure!“

“Traditional Japanese izekaya. Daily specials. A definite must try.“

“Been coming here for decades still my favorite.“

“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.“

“Excelente...muy buena atención y la comida muy buena, lo recomiendo...“

“Overall great place to grab sushi in LA. Great quality fish at reasonable prices. Place was busy for a friday night but our hostess was great at getting us in with no advance reservations. Service is great and attentive. Would recommend and go again.“

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

“Had a wonderful meal. The chef was awesome and interactive“

“Crane & Elephant is such a gem!! Food was incredible and you can taste the love put into every dish!!! Bring your family and friends and enjoy the warm hospitality and enjoy this hidden gem!!! You will thank me later!!! Thanks Crane and Elephant for a wonderful night!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

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

“The food and service was excellent.“

“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“

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

“When you see betos you aren't expecting it to be fried rice plates. But that exactly what it is. Portions are awesome. They cook the steak how you want it if you order that. Shrimp was also amazing. Next time we are in town we are making this a stop.“

“This is a rare gem of a sushi restaurant in the West Hills, Woodland Hills, Calabassas, Canoga Park area. Living in West Hills we have tried most of the sushi restaurants in this area, and this by far is our favorite.

The fish is always super fresh. The portions are generous and the service is great. The pork ramen is superb and all of their rolls and sushi and sashimi are great.

Do yourself a favor. Take the 12 minute ride out of your typical haunts and reward yourself with some of the best sushi this side of the valley.“

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

“First time eating at tBBQ Teriyaki & Sushi. Their lunch special was amazing! I forgot to take a picture. Lol. I recommend this place. Great meal selection. They cook your meal when you order it. You will have to wait a while. But it's worth it.“
