24 Best Sushi Bars in Studio City

“We had the Ume Omakase menu and didn't even know sushi could be so good. Such a wonderful experience for our anniversary. Atmosphere is cozy and friendly.

Boyfriend's review: How do I give 100/5 stars?!? This was honestly a life changing sushi experience“

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

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

“Gorgeous restaurant! Aesthetically very beautiful and the food delivered!! We got the oxtail bao, crispy rice, Leona sushi roll, the fusion baked sushi roll with carbonara sauce, and cocktails! This place is the must in the valley! The outdoor patio is also stunning!! we will definitely be back“

“Everything was amazing from the service to the food and sushi and the environment is unassuming and comfortable. Top notch!“

“Katsu-ya is my neighborhood sushi spot, and it is a good one. This is not the place you go when you want the best sushi of your life or a meal that is going to blow your mind. This is where you go when you want good, consistent sushi any day of the week.

It is the Toyota Avalon of sushi restaurants, on the upper end of reliable, and I go there constantly. They are always busy and have many celebrity clients, if that matters to you. Service is consistently great as well. If you want a table, it is best to make a reservation since they are often very busy.“

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

“We were 5 ppl ,ordered like 8 dishes all were amazingly great my first time to Gokaku Rama. Was so worth it after all day in universal su Dr ios,3 min drive to Gokaku place ..I did not want to end my meal .this is the best restaurant“

“I ordered lunch takeout for work recently and honestly loved the vibe. It’s not that unique but it’s very chill and the staff were super nice. Even offered me a seat at the bar while I waited for food. Writing this review because it reminds me of a place you and your friends can go for lunch/dinner, not break your wallet, and gossip in the corner for hours so I will be trying to eat in soon.“

“The ramen here is some of the most impressive in all of LA. They bring you what looks like a culinary masterpiece, yet it is all vegan. The vibes are perfect with soft lighting and good music. The staff is very friendly and accommodating while also being highly skilled, as this is not the easiest to create.“

“Food great and employees are too“

“Always amazing food and service. I just love this restaurant.“

“This place is fantastic in person. Their fish is fresh and their rolls are made with care. Their tuna crunch roll and uni are fantastic.

However, I wouldn't recommend ordering takeout/delivery. I usually order from a spot that has wrappers for their seaweed to ensure that you get a fresh crunch with your hand roll. I decided to give the bar a shot for delivery and was very disappointed to find that the rolls came soft and soggy.“

“Katsu-Ya seriously exceeded expectations, especially for takeout sushi. Everything was packaged beautifully and the fish quality was extremely fresh from the moment we opened everything up.

I ordered toro belly, yellowtail, albacore nigiri, a yellowtail crudo-style dish topped with crispy onions, spicy tuna on rice cakes, miso soup, and a salmon bowl. The cuts were buttery, clean, and incredibly well prepared. The toro especially melted in your mouth, and the yellowtail dish had such a good balance of freshness, texture, and crunch from the onion topping.

The spicy tuna on crispy rice is one of my favorite dishes anywhere and Katsu-Ya absolutely delivered. Perfect crisp on the rice without being overly greasy, and the tuna had great flavor and heat balance. Even the miso soup tasted fresh and comforting instead of feeling like an afterthought.

Very impressed overall. Some sushi places lose quality with takeout, but this held up beautifully.“

“Best Sushi Great people Love this place!!❤️“

“When we discovered that our favorite local sushi spot had closed, we despaired… until we stumbled across this terrific little place. The atmosphere is unassuming but pleasant (lit-up fish sculptures hanging by wires from the ceiling!), and the food & service were fantastic. Beautiful presentation, delicious food. Our waiter Caleb couldn’t have been nicer, even brought us free dishes to sample. (Try the roasted Brussels sprouts!) Highly recommend this place. We will be returning for sure!“

“Stopped by on Thanksgiving night and it was amazing! First time, and will definitely be back. From the second we walked inside we were greeted with smiles. The older lady that served us was polite and charming to the point that it felt like we knew each other. The food was authentic and the service was fast.“

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

“What a beautiful restaurant. Loved the menu- so many delicious options, ended up getting the bulgogi plate and it came with so many yummy sides I was delighted. Also the interior is Titanic themed and it’s pretty and fun. Thank you 🙏“

“Delicious !! Nutritious !! Cost effective !!! Love @sugarfish“

“The Longostina is my favorite!“

“Food was very good. The ingredients were all fresh and tasty. Service was great!“

“Wonderful Experience all around. Stumbled on this place looking for sushi while visiting Universal Studios and what a WIN. We waited 25 minutes for a seat at the large U Shaped counter that seats about 30 people - see photo. The hostess did an amazing job of cleaning and resetting the seats while the staff behind the counter crafted hand rolls and served beverages. Loved the simple and easy to order menu and you will not be disappointed with any of the hand roll set menus! Add a Japanese beer or some Sake and you will be in a state of culinary bliss.“

“I go to Sushi Stop in Studio City quite often. Overall, the food is really good. When ordering delivery it’s not always as fresh as dining in, but for the price it’s worth it.

The only downside is one of the waitresses. Unfortunately, I don’t know her name, but she never seems to make an effort. Last time I was there on Saturday, August 15th and she didn’t even bring wasabi and ginger — we had to wait for another waiter to help us. She also never clears dirty dishes, and even after we finished our dinner, she never came back to clean our table.“
