46 Best Sushi Bars near Thousand Oaks

“I’m so glad I found this place. Yes it is the BEST sushi in Conejo Valley. The chef knows his fish. We got most of the specials on the board which were mostly from Japan. I will say that it was expensive but so worth it. Maybe stick to the nigiri on the menu and it won’t cost so much. But I’m so glad I do not have to drive into LA for great sushi. I’m a fan.“

“When Pierre Chapet gets involved with a Restaurant you know your getting the freshest sushi 🍣 and the best services out there! Abraham Essinger, LCT Bend, Oregon“

“Fresh, no skimping, great options, friendly service, order always correct, open all day. Best sushi spot in East Ventura County/Conejo!“

“My husband and I just happened to be in the Thousand Oaks area and found Pokitomik through a google search. We are VERY GLAD we did! The fish is incredibly fresh, great portions, and the owner is the kindest man you’ll ever meet. I’m picky about my poké, but I loved everything about this eatery. 10/10 recommend!“

“Go Fish & Sushi has officially become our go-to spot. We’ve made it a tradition to eat here pretty much every Friday, and even when we can't stay, their takeout is just as high-quality and fresh.

Why We Love It:

The Chef’s Specials: We’ve ordered almost every special roll on the menu at this point, and they are consistently delicious. You can tell the fish is fresh and the combinations are well-thought-out.

Generous Portions: Unlike many sushi spots that overcharge for tiny bites, the portions here are very satisfying. You definitely get your money's worth.

Kid-Approved: Our kids absolutely love the Salmon Teriyaki. It’s their favorite spot to go get dinner after gymnastics.

Atmosphere: It is incredibly family-friendly. The staff always makes us feel welcome, which makes dining out with the whole crew much less stressful.

If you’re looking for a reliable, tasty, and welcoming sushi spot, this is it. We’ll see you guys next Friday!“

“This is a great spot for casual dining and dates. The food is always fresh. I recommend the Spicy Pork Bulgogi Dinner, Baked Green Mussels, and Freshwater Eel sushi.“

“I’ve been coming to Cho Cho Son for a long time now and I don’t know why it has taken me this long to leave a review. The food is great, service is good, pricing is reasonable, and it’s always consistent and that earns them at five star for me. They have always treated me well. I would even argue it is better than Benihanas. I highly recommend Cho Cho Son.“

“Best sushi ever. Teddy and his staff treat their customers like family. E+mon has the freshest sushi. Try the nigiri, sashimi or one of their fabulous rolls today.“

“Love the food here they never disappoint me“

“honestly one of the bets sushi spots around here. we walked in for lunch last tuesday and everything was fresh and the service was super friendly. definitely my new fav place to go freind said the same they already been there a bunch. gonna be coming back lots“

“I just went for a 2nd time last night (1st time was last year) and oh my gosh this place is awesome! not only is the food absolutely delicious and there's a huge variety of things you could get but the service is fantastic and the servers and owner- a young lady we met, are all so nice and helpful and considerate. Throw in the prices are so reasonable compared to many. I so wish there was one closer to my home over on the west side of L.A.,. but I'll just have to make the trip more often!“

“The food and selections were really yummy. We walked here for dinner quite a ways so I was so hungry I forgot to take photographs of the food, but the portions were excellent. The best part about this place is the staff. There were three people working and they were incredibly friendly, but not phony friendly.“

“I went to Sushi Planet a few weeks ago for the first time. I had a great experience. The sushi is delicious and uses fresh, high quality ingredients. They have many different options and included many specials. The staff is friendly and attentive, they made the experience very pleasant. They even did a birthday celebration for my wife and we really appreciated that. If I am in the area and craving sushi I will definitely go back to the Sushi Planet.“

“Not a fan… Yellow tail was garbage… I miss Edo Japan“

“Very flavorful dishes at good price and quick service. great sushi . i have not enjoyed my sushi like that in many years. The best hole in the wall ever!!!“

“take out, covid19 style. thanks BJ. cheers.“

“Some of the best sushi we've ever had — and we know our sushi.
As people who consider ourselves true connoisseurs of Japanese cuisine, that's not something we say lightly. Sushi Oats has completely won us over.
A must-know tip: come on Fridays. That's when they bring in their freshest catches and seasonal dishes, and the difference is absolutely noticeable. The quality speaks for itself.
Raul and Tony are true masters of their craft — watching them work is an experience in itself. Their precision, creativity, and passion come through in every single roll. We tried a couple of rolls and were blown away, but our biggest advice? Order whatever is on special. Trust us on this one — it will not disappoint.
Whether you're a sushi newbie or a seasoned Japanese food lover, Sushi Oats deserves a spot on your must-visit list. We'll absolutely be back.
Highly, highly recommend. Five stars, no question. 🍣“

“Still my favorite place to eat — consistently delicious and beautifully presented. Every dish was a total wow!“

“These new owners have made a beautiful sushi bar/restaurant/menu. I have been to this restaurant 4 times now for lunch. Their service has made me feel valued and special each time... Friendly and timely. The ambiance is beautiful and it feels very clean when you walk in. The sushi is SO FRESH, even mid-week, and the special cut rolls are very artistic and delicious. I very much love the no rice rolls selection, and the Chef accommodated me by making a no rice spider roll that wasn't on the menu... Mmmm, Mmmm! I'm bringing friends upon my next visit (Sat. Aug. 2, 2025).“

“Incredible food, great service in a very nice atmosphere. Unassuming, but well crafted with care right in front of you. Very small restaurant with only 7 seats, and reservations are required since he is booked months in advance. Already have my next reservation on the books!“

“Was craving some ramen and was about to drive to little Tokyo when I found this little jewel nearby. Food was tasty and knocked my cravings out. I ordered the signature monkey ramen dish and was not disappointed. You can tell the broth had taken a couple days, because it was so rich. I would definitely eat here again.“

“Such a cute environment. We went around 7pm on a Tuesday and it was pretty empty. We got the jade curry, beef satay, and the west side wontons which were all fire. We also met Pookie herself and she was so sweet. Worth a second visit for sure! I would say new menus or a digital menu would be nice but the menus are cool with the wood and the metal detailing.“

“Sea Butter in Westlake Village is hands down my favorite sushi spot in the area! The sushi is always incredibly fresh, and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. My absolute favorite is the Emma sushi—it just melts in your mouth. The spicy tuna crispy rice is also amazing. I love coming here with my family and always have a great experience. If you’re looking for top-quality sushi and great service, this is the place to go!“

“Delish“

“Good quality sushi, attentive and accommodating staff.“

“The sushi is good, the beer and wine selection are not, though the wine that *is* offered is high quality. Service was a bit slow this time around (sat at the sushi bar). The prices are ok, not notably inexpensive, but again, the sushi is decent.“

“The sushi here is absolutely excellent, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality in every bite. It’s also such a great value for the price, which makes the experience even better. I especially recommend the vegetarian roll, which was delicious, and the salmon avocado roll, which was perfectly balanced and so satisfying. The specialty dishes are fantastic as well, the crispy tuna dish, in particular, was outstanding and full of flavor.
One detail I really noticed and appreciated was how beautifully they cut the avocado. It’s such a small thing, but it shows the level of care and attention that goes into every plate, making the presentation just as enjoyable as the taste.
I really like that there’s the option to order individual rolls from the menu, which I personally preferred. At the same time, they also offer really good lunch specials that are generous and worth checking out if you want a complete meal at a great price. We came here for dinner and everything exceeded expectations.
Another thing that stood out, aside from the food, was the care and attention from the chef. It’s clear that he pays attention to his customers and takes pride in making sure everyone has a great experience, which adds so much to the atmosphere. The service overall was warm, attentive, and friendly, making the evening even more enjoyable.
I also have to mention the ginger — it was excellent, fresh, and had just the right flavor, which I personally loved. It elevated the sushi perfectly and showed the thoughtfulness that goes into the small details here.
Overall, this restaurant is a real gem. From the fresh and delicious sushi to the beautifully cut avocado, the attentive chef, excellent service, and even the little touches like the quality ginger, everything came together to make it a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended for both lunch and dinner!“

“This place definitely surprised us! We were very happy to have found such an outstanding restaurant. The restaurant is pretty big and very pretty, we sat at the bar. The sashimi was AMAZING! I wanted to go back everyday :) the roll was not my favorite, but good, the skewers one of them too much garlic sweet sauce. Customer service was great!“

“Great food and great people“

“Our number 1 date night spot! Im a big man that likes quality fish and this place has never disappointed me! The staff is extremely kind and are soooo nice and accommodating too our kids. Im extremely happy they still do all you can eat as many places have given it up! I would Definitely give them a try if you want a new sushi spot!“

“That it is a GREAT sushi restaurant that everyone needs to try!!! Here is my review on it: SATURDAY FOOD REVIEW..SAKE2ME SUSHI (again)...1/11/25! After a day at SeaWorld in San Diego, we stopped on our way home to have dinner at Sake2Me Sushi, located at 3885 Cochran St., in Simi Valley. They start you off with an appetizer, crab on a fried tortilla, with eel sauce, spicy sauce, and Japanese sauce, and WOW, it was SOOO GOOD!!! We both had their Dinner Combo, with miso soup, salad, rice, and an orange slice, and our choice of sushi, and we both chose the Shrimp Crunch Roll and the Spicy Tuna Roll. Every single thing was VERY fresh tasting and ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!! This restaurant has TOP NOTCH FOOD, and one that needs to be on your 'must do list'!!!! I VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND it to all sushi lovers...you will NOT be disappointed, it's THAT GOOD!!!!“

“Wanted to try something new in the area and stumbled upon this place for dinner. Overall it was great as there was a huge menu on the wall and the place was well decorated with lanterns with sakura trees. It’s a place where you would come to for something quick. I dined-in since traveling with a bowl of hot udon isn’t ideal. Service was great!

I ordered the Udon with Tempura Shrimp and asked the person at the cashier what they recommend as an appetizer and he stated that the Potstickers were a usual go-to which is what I got. The price for the udon was fairly priced, but maybe not for the potstickers. However, I do understand the economy so it’s reasonable, I guess…

The udon noodles were nicely textured and had 2 pieces of narutomaki (maybe not enough in my opinion). Wasn’t sure what the other things in the udon was but it melted quick. The tempura shrimp are similar to the ones I get at Costco. I believe I was 75% full after eating that complete meal which is a good percentage.“

“I love your sushi! They also have some of the best curry dishes!“

“Food and service were incredible!! First time here and in Siem reap and it didn’t disappoint. We were the last customers and they were so sweet and attentive and the presentation was amazing. I wish I didn’t eat prior to this because I didn’t get a chance to try all the delicious dishes but my bougie significant other loved it and he’s super choosy when it comes to his sushi. We met the chef and such a sweet and humble person. The staff alone are all amazing. Highly recommended and it’s worth every penny!!! Can’t wait when I’m back in Siem Reap so I can stop by. Thank you for your amazing service 💕“

“This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Los Angeles!!! Head chef Jan is constantly creating new and exciting dishes. Roast & Rice is a unique and innovative spin on Thai, Japanese and Asian fusion cuisine. ❤️❤️❤️“

“This place is a hidden gem in south Phoenix“

“Hikari is a neighborhood sushi bar with very fresh fish and fair prices. The albacore sashimi melted in my mouth, and the spicy tuna crispy rice was one of the best I’ve had. Service is quick and friendly, and the chef always greets you. It’s not flashy, but the food is better than many places in LA. Great for a chill weekday sushi dinner“

“We will not return. SOME staff is just too volatile & moody & rude. We have been going here often. The last straw was last Monday at 4:30 pm when the rude Korean waitress Sylvia (?) refused to seat us in the closest booths ( "No those are for employees "🤔) and then refused us another booth because we were only two people. Mind you we've sat at every booth many times every time because of our back issues. Even though I have a cane, she often makes us wait when the place is clearly dead. The only pleasant staff is Manny, Vanessa & the nice female Hispanic bus person. But Sylvia & the very gruff Chinese woman act like they are doing you a huge favor. I have overlooked their rudeness before, but this was it for us. Perhaps she doesn't like people line me with canes. We will go to Kyoto instead or Hai Sushi we do not need to be treated rudely.“

“I have been a very happy customer for many years. Although I’m not typically someone who leaves reviews on social media, this time I felt compelled to do so. Mimi, the restaurant manager, was exceptionally accommodating and attentive. I highly recommend Sumo!!!“

“Tomodachi is outstanding. The sushi is always fresh and delicious, and the quality is on another level. The sushi chef makes incredible suggestions and every recommendation has been spot on. You can tell how much pride they take in their work with every plate that comes out. If you can, sit at the sushi bar—it makes the experience even better watching the chef create everything right in front of you. This has quickly become one of my favorite sushi spots, and I can’t wait to come back.“

“Love the food fresh and yummy ❤️“

“TUESDAY FOOD REVIEW...HAI SUSHI (again)...3/5/24! Today we went back to Hai Sushi, located at 1101 E Los Angeles Ave., in Simi Valley, for lunch. We have eaten there many times over the years, as their food is always DELICIOUS!!! I had their Miso Soup, Spring Greens Salad, 911 Roll, Lobster Roll, Shrimp Tempura, Fresh Water Eel, Spicy Scallop Hand Roll, Garlic Edamame, Yellowtail Sushi, and Salmon Sushi. And it was as it always is, fresh and delicious!!!! Definitely Simi Valley's best sushi restaurant!!!“

“Salmon always cooked like fine-dining! Love their coleslaw. Perfect meal for me with brown rice. No one does it better in that price range.“

“The food here is great because it taste fresh. The service is great. The owners are pleasant but not overly engaging. They are very prompt to pick up dirty dishes and refill drinks. The Tepan chefs are talented and funny! We go here often and the leftovers are fantastic.“

“Atmosphere in the early Friday evening; is quiet with soft music.
Television to catch the eyes…and service of the owners they do not “bother” you much.
Seeing that the menu we wanted sushi..
The next time we will prepare to “feast”!
What I did get was the SWEET HONEY ROLL 🥰😋
Sprimp tempura, fresh eel, with spicy tuna, crab, crunch, and eel sauce.:: 16.95 / 13 cut rolls
Need more with this 😍 I need some meats and double portion of the rolls 😍😍🥲🙌

We will do a return visit!
Will update!! Stay tuned!!“

“Great Sushi Bar staring Nhina. He creates some amazing dishes. Love this place!“
