CHO CHO SAN - THE ORIGINAL

Has been one of my favorite places to eat sushi for years. The portions, the price, specially the flavors!

My eldest son wanted to go here for his 23 birthday. It was good. Busy but good. Parking seems bad but it worked for us.

I’ve been eating here for over 15 years and this hidden gem is one of my favorite sushi spots in the San Fernando Valley!

This place is not like it used to be When I used to go there, customer service was incredible at the time at the time now they’re cutting chefs hours Only keeping one Chef at a time . This place is very slow far as businessThey’re cutting the hours Of chefs and employees being there Service is not the same. The place is not being managed properly. They need real good management their proper service customer care. The place is going down the drain. I’ve been seeing it all these years this time I gave up. Many other better sushi, places, better quality better service

I’ve been coming to this sushi spot for years with my good friend, and it’s truly one of our favorite places. The quality is always consistent — fresh fish, perfectly seasoned rice, and attention to every detail in presentation. The chefs clearly take pride in their craft, and the staff always make us feel welcome like family.

Whether it’s a casual dinner or a special night out, this place never disappoints. You can really taste the care and tradition in every bite. After all these years, it still feels just as special as the first time we came. Highly recommend!

Showed up at 2:58pm, sat immediately, by the time they gave us menus we asked about the lunch special but it apparently ends promptly at 3pm and the manager said absolute hard cutoff, sure. We were charged $16 for 8 pieces of yellowtail regular roll when the menu says $10 for 6 pieces. The manager was pretty rude but the rest of the staff very friendly and the sushi was yummy, just off putting experience :)

Food was great. Sushi can be received quickly as it's made right in front of you. Other dishes take some time. When I went, it took a while to have someone take my non sushi order. One of the men making sushi helped me by notifying a waitress who took my order from across the room but not directly from me. I needed to modify my order due to an allergy so I had to wait and ask someone else. Little frustrating but it turned out okay.

Dietary restrictions: Food may be modified but you have to be patient.

Everything we ordered was delicious and fresh except for the beef teriyaki. Overall, I recommend! The Rice Krispy is especially good.

I have been coming here for years. This last time the employee was very rude, and I feel like the customer service is more then lagging.

I came around 8:58 p.m. to try this place since I have never been here before so I sat and told the waiter and the guy wo was making sushi that I was taking video for food blog and they said it was ok so I took a video as usual since I do google reviews on a regular basis, then a rude,ugly, and disrespectful female employee (who looked and sounded like either Indian or middle Eastern) who was incharge started interrupting me and harrassing me saying, I couldn't take a video on people ( when I wasn't taking videos on people) but instead I was taking a video on food and the place.( I uploaded the exact videos that I have taken). She was also giving me some legal advice like she was a lawyer when she was not. She also accused me of discrimination when she's the one who discriminated against me by telling the staff not to serve me because I was trying to do a food blog. The police were called and I had to wait till 9:39 p.m. but they never showed up because they're as useless and as incompitent as the lady employee here who had no common sense.

I have come to this place many times. I love their no rice rolls. The last time we were there my older daughter said her roll tasted terrible. I went back again because it is close to work. I am still trying to forget what was served to me today. I ordered a no rice roll, like usual. I took a bite ,and had to throw it out. Something was rotting inside. It smelled like rotten food and tasted terrible. I gave the roll back and canceled all the other rolls we ordered. This is no joke. Rotten fish can make you violently ill if not worse. I still have that smell and taste lingering in my mouth. I want to report this restaurant to the health department. The worst part is that the waiter and the chef weren’t apologetic or the slightest bit concerned,
