Be careful- the spicy tuna crispy rice is addicting! Taisho is our go to spot when family & friends visit from out of town. You can’t go wrong with anything you order there. It’s all delicious. Highly recommend checking out their happy hour!

Overpriced for nothing, rolls are nothing special. Took very long for drinks and food to come out.

super special and delish. were somethings overpriced? sure. its that kind of place. but service was excellent and all the food was great. all in w a cocktail and shared dessert was about $150 /pp

loved all the sushi rolls
the Yuzu margarita
the sashimi was delish but so small portioned. same with the short ribs.

its an upbeat place with comfortable contemporary decor.

they have a fairly good happy hour menu til 6pm- and if you stick with that could probably have dinner and drinks and enjoy the place for $60-$80 /pp or so.

A great meal to celebrate our 8th grader’s MS graduation and my FIL’s 75th birthday! Thankful, too, for the Katz family’s support of our school’s fundraiser back in April - we were able to use a gift card we had won at that event.

Definitely a “seen and be seen” kind of vibe, but we did not feel out of place at all and the service was warm and welcoming and super accommodating of both our youngest son’s allergies and our large party. Thank you so much, especially Katrina who was patient and attentive throughout our meal.

Rolls were delicious, the whole crispy fish was a showstopper, and the drinks were perfect. All in all, a superb evening!

Unprofessional and Disrespectful Service at Taisho

I recently dined at Taisho in Los Angeles, and I feel compelled to share my experience due to the unprofessional and disrespectful service I encountered.

Upon reviewing the menu, I inquired about cooked sushi options. Instead of receiving assistance, the waitress responded dismissively, stating, “This is a sushi place; I think you’re confused,” and walked away without offering further help. This left me feeling embarrassed, especially given the close proximity of other diners.

At the end of my meal, while attempting to leave a $10 tip, I mistakenly entered $100. When I sought assistance to correct this, the waitress ignored me. After adjusting it myself, she loudly remarked, “You meant $10 for tipping, trying to change it?” in front of other patrons, further adding to my discomfort.

I approached the front desk to express my concerns, but the response was indifferent: “Okay, I’ll talk to her.” There was no apology or effort to address the situation.

Such behavior is unacceptable in any service industry setting. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and implements appropriate training to ensure all patrons are treated with respect and courtesy!

The ambiance was excellent and the service was ok. But the food was hit or miss - with some items coming out excellent and others falling flat on flavor. Seabass robata-yaki and crispy Brussels sprouts were awesome. Skip the lobster noodle, because somehow it had almost no lobster flavor whatsoever - it was beautifully presented, but very bland and dull.

Went for a friend's birthday a few weeks ago and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! My favorite dish was the spicy kurbobuta fried rice. The music was really loud but overall a great dinner, will definitely go back.

Dr Dre and Andersen Pak restaurant. Sign me up! The service and atmosphere were great. We ordered alot of food and got to try alot of different things. Some were great like the wagyu beef and others were just OK which is why I gave it 3 stars. It's probably closer to 4 considering the service was great. Drinks were good also. I will admit in not a sushi person so I only tried one piece of sushi and it wasnt for me.
