50 Best Sushi Bars near Sun Valley

“it's a tiny little hole in the wall amazing awesome delightful friendly place!!!! the food and the people who work there are amazing!“

“That sounds like a fantastic dining experience“

“Fresh fish and impressive knife skills from the chef. Sitting at the counter and watching the precision, technique, and attention to detail made the experience even more enjoyable. Every piece was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. Highly recommend.“

“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!“

“The atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was delicious. However, the service was disappointing. Our server was condescending and repeatedly interrupted our moment by crossing between us without a word. When I asked about drinks, she was short and even gave inaccurate descriptions. This is my second visit, and both times with the same server have left a sour taste. I hope the service improves because the food deserves better! This is my second visit, and both times with the same brunette server, whose attitude left a sour taste.“

“Love this spot! The fish quality is fresh and tasty, the sushi chefs were quick and friendly. The ambiance was intimate but cozy, the bar seating and outdoor dining are great options to enjoy your meal. Free parking is available in the back, a huge plus!“

“Sushi Tomoki is the best sushi I've ever had in my life. I was only in town yesterday for one day and Sushi Tomoki was absolutely the only place I was going to eat. Their fish is so fresh with great flavor. I would fly in just to eat there!“

“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.“

“Delicious and freshly prepared food 🥘“

“Very delicious! My daughter fell in love with Katsu Sando ❤“

“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“

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

“LOVED the service we have a beautiful waitress who was extremely helpful. The food was amazing we had edamame, spicy tune rice, 911 roll, and a spicy salmon roll and they were delicious I do with the wasabi was a bit spicier but that’s my only down everything else was amazing!“

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

“My go to sushi spot for a couple years now. I absolutely love the vibes, the food, and the prices. DoorDash runs deals for delivery from here all the time too if you’re looking for a chill night in. The staff is all friendly and the place itself feels welcoming. Truly a hidden gem for the locals. Gonna include some favs of people I’ve taken here: ultimate salmon roll, crispy rice spicy tuna (they don’t add mayo which I love), yellowtail kama, veggie gyoza“

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

“I had an excellent lunch at Sushi Yuzu. The restaurant has a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere, and everything I ordered tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared.

I started with the tuna sampler, which was beautifully presented and offered several different cuts and preparations of tuna. Each one had its own distinct flavor and texture, and the quality of the fish really stood out. It was a great way to sample the restaurant’s sushi and a perfect start to lunch.

The highlight, though, was the spicy tuna crispy rice. The rice was crisp and golden on the outside without being overly hard or greasy, while the spicy tuna was fresh, flavorful, and nicely balanced. It had just enough heat without overpowering the fish. I’d even dare to say Sushi Yuzu’s spicy tuna crispy rice was better than Katsuya’s, which is a very high bar.

The food felt refined without being fussy, and the quality made a casual lunch feel special. Sushi Yuzu is definitely worth visiting if you enjoy fresh sushi, especially tuna. I’ll absolutely be returning to try more of the menu.“

“great food. Good service. decent prices“

“Great setting and great Sushi two thumbs up 👍🏽“

“Our server Peter was fantastic. He has a great personality, a genuinely friendly attitude, and never made us feel rushed, which we really appreciated.
The sushi was fresh and delicious. One thing that stood out was that the rolls had a generous amount of fish instead of being mostly rice. In fact, the rice portion was surprisingly light, which I personally loved because it let the quality of the fish shine through.
And the Red Wine Roll is an absolute must try, trust me, you will thank me later.“

“I had an absolutely wonderful time dining here. The food was consistently fresh and beautifully presented.

Every roll I tried was prepared with such care. I particularly loved the vibrant colors of the sushi, especially the beautiful orange slices of lemon resting right on top of the rolls. Everything tasted just as good as it looked.

This place is a real gem in North Hollywood. I will definitely be back again soon.“

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

“Sushi Katsu-ya in Studio City is easily one of our top three favorite sushi restaurants. We come here 1–2 times a week, pretty much every week, and it has become our go-to sushi spot.

We usually keep our order pretty consistent: crispy rice with spicy tuna and a bunch of cut rolls. The cut rolls here are honestly some of the best we’ve had anywhere. Our favorites are the creamy salmon, spicy yellowtail, spicy albacore, and spicy tuna. Every one of them is consistently fresh, flavorful, and well made. From time to time we’ll switch it up with some of the specialty rolls or nigiri, and those have always been great as well.

The quality for what you pay is excellent, especially considering how consistently good everything is. After coming here as often as we do, that consistency is a big reason we keep returning.

But as much as we love the food, the staff is probably the biggest highlight for us. At this point we know pretty much the entire team, and everyone—from management and the hosts to the servers and chefs—is genuinely kind and welcoming. They always come by to say hello, welcome us back, and take great care of us. The service is consistently excellent, and there’s a warmth here that you don’t get at every restaurant.

We genuinely feel at home when we come to Katsu-ya. Great sushi, great value, an amazing staff, and a place we look forward to visiting every week. There’s a reason we keep coming back 1–2 times a week.“

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

“Alyssa… best service ever!!! Food and the view and the service was amazing. Highest quality of sushi I’ve ever eaten in my life and the drinks were so top tier and well balanced! Thank you will be a regular customer from now on!“

“Great service and very friendly staff“

“Seabutter, in the heart of Glendale lies this sushi restaurant that is a masterpiece. It is right next to Americana, sadly it has horrible parking but near places like Shake Shack, bourbon steak, In-n-Out, Capital One cafe, BJ’s brewhouse, and I’m quite sure a Starbucks as well Joe & The Juice literally next door.

Every sushi is fresh and tastes delicious, the atmosphere is like you’re a Roman patrician arriving at his Villa where his luxurious life is. It doesn’t look so fancy, but it feels comfy. There’s no trash nor dirt on the floor just clean and has a nice modern look.

The service here is very quick, the wait time is non-existent and the staff are very kind-hearted and quick with orders. When we come here, we are usually give On the house meals which is nice. There’s also a bar area and you can watch them make your sushi!

The food here is the spotlight in the show, it is the best sushi I have ate in my whole entire lifetime as well my whole bloodline. The sushi here is fresh delicious and it’s nice. I showed pictures of non-sushi items like Chicken Teriyaki, and Garlic Edamani, but most of the pictures are just sushi.

In the end, after coming here 50+ times I can agree this is the best sushi place I will ever touch on earth. If there was sushi in heaven, Seabutter will be there.

They also have another restaurant place called The Bar which I will review one day. But other from that, this place is a must-go and is very underrated and overlooked.

PS: before you go here, the parking is absolute garbage due to Americano and other popular places!

Peace✌️“

“I loved everything I ate (spicy tuna roll and chutoro being my favorites). Everyone working there was so friendly and accommodating!! Shoutout Han at the bar who really just understood me -- every cocktail was delicious. I will 100% be back and recommend to friends.“

“I love this place! The food is fantastic! And I’m a regular for a reason 😉“

“Best sushi ever! I highly recommend them! The food is sooooo good!“

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

“paid $200+/per for 10 corse
The quality and portion is fair for LA

However the kinds of fish they offer and presentation is not unique enough to limit ability of selecting menu
disappointment of getting fully cooked Seabass sushi and cooked well done beef sushi 🙄“

“Excellent food. ambience is also very good. we had udon noodle soup which was freshly made and great taste“

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

“Absolutely fantastic handroll experience on Ventura Blvd. The nori was perfectly crisp, the rice was warm and seasoned just right, and the fish was incredibly fresh — you can tell they care about every detail. The toro and salmon handrolls were standouts. Service was attentive and friendly, with the chefs handing rolls over the counter right as they’re made so you get them at their peak. Cozy, intimate vibe that makes it perfect for a quick solo bite or a date night. Will definitely be back!“

“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“

“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!“

“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!“

“Absolutely fantastic. No notes. Had the omakase with the sake pairing, was a experience I will not forget. Service was superb, super nice and highly attentive. And the food, out of this world. The intimate space was beautiful and made the experience feel very special. Would highly recommend!“

“this place is awesome. i get the sean secret hand roll every time (baked crab, avocado, soy paper) and rotate between a couple of other rolls. this time i got the jay-lo roll and added fried onion. their fried onion is ridiculous, you have to give it a try! love kinza every time i’m out in sherman oaks.“

“Great food and the people in the restaurant where accommodating to my dietary restrictions. Will definitely come back!“

“Just go and order Omakase. It is the sushi experience of your life!“

“Great 🍣 sushi and the employees are super friendly! Been coming here for years.“

“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“

“Came here for my friend’s birthday and we had an amazing time. The food was amazing and the service was incredible. I had the garlic addict role and the 1000 bucks roll. They even made my friend a sushi cake for her birthday! I will definitely be coming back!“

“Food Delicious Service excellent ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Very cozy and modern sushi bar with very high end fish options. The nigiri sushi really stand out. The choices of garnish is very spot on. Very warm and friendly service. I would make a reservation since the place is not very big. Plenty of meter parking around. Will definitely be back.“

“Ramen were super good and excellent customer service.“

“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.“
