“The Japanese, who have lived in the United States all year long, love to make friends“

“I am extremely loyal to our local sushi restaurant gems all along Ventura blvd and have my staples saying that none compare to this most amazing sushi spot we've discovered and many have already known about and it is Sushi Tomoki! Wow! Paradise for sushi lovers and I must say from the moment you enter this most authentic of joints it takes your heart and you fall in love with the chefs, the ladies and gentleman serving you and guiding you along the way is next level. We absolutely have found our local spot for good. Magic!“

“Phenomenal experience and the staff was excellent.“

“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“

“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✌️“

Petros, the waiter was super civilized, respectful and helpful.

“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.“

“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!“

“I think I died.
This is the freshest, cleanest fish I have had since Kazu on Ventura closed.
The chefs are incredibly talented, the freshest fish being used and the flavors are clean and well balanced. I will be back every week until I've tried everything on the menu. 🥰❤️🌸

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

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

“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.“

“BOIIIII I GOT WHAT I DESERVED 😂😂😂me and da bois were looking for the nes for Nintendo switch ts place was phenomenon and next was a barber shop that was a quarter so me and the city bois got no menu but we got what me deserved definitely a five out of five😂“

“I love Kinza. It’s a cute but no pretension type of sushi spot! Their rolls come with 10 pieces (not 8) AND you can order half size rolls even for their specialty rolls which is INCREDIBLE. Very fresh, flavorful, lots of good combos, and service is excellent.

If you can’t find parking on the street, park in the alley behind the restaurant!“

“Morihiro is just really solid all around. You can tell a lot of care goes into everything, especially the sushi—the rice and fish were super clean and well balanced.

Chef Morihiro Onodera comes from a traditional Japanese background, and it shows. His style is very classic and detail-focused, precise technique and great ingredients. Even the ceramics are part of the experience, since many of the plates are made by him.

Highlights for me were the uni hand rolls and the sashimi. Even the steak and tempura were done really well, simple but executed right.

Nothing feels over the top or gimmicky, just thoughtful and intentional. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but worth it if you’re into traditional sushi done right.“

“I'm always looking for a new sushi spots in the valley. This looks like a staple and his highly rated. I haven't got a chance to explore everything fully, but they're tuna tataki is amazing, so is their baked salmon and their tuna on crispy rice. It's kind of hard to get a seat if you don't make a reservation, and that's the only thing I don't love, but completely understand.“

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

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

“Had an amazing experience at Shiso Sushi Sherman Oaks The sushi was extremely fresh, high quality, and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality of the fish in every bite.

The service was friendly, professional, and attentive, and the overall atmosphere was clean and relaxing. Everything we ordered came out fresh and delicious.

Definitely one of the better sushi spots in Sherman Oaks if you’re looking for quality sushi and great customer service. Highly recommended.“

“Food Delicious Service excellent ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is on3 o& m6 favorite sushi places in Los Angeles. Always very fresh, great daily specials, and unusual options. Try the maitake sushi!“

“Super good, quick and really great service. The appetizer, Popular demand, was something I had never tried before and it was so yummy we ordered 2. We also had sweet Hawaiian roll and shooting star. Very good! Shooting star was my fave. Reasonable prices and it feels somewhat upscale.“

“I passed by this place so many times but never got to try it out until today. The workers were so down to earth and made the experience so fun as soon as we walked in. Ryan was our server and was so helpful to us! It was our first time here and he took the time to really take care of the table and recommend some good items. My favorite was the salmon sampler. I’m excited for my next time back!“

“An exceptional handroll experience from start to finish. Seaweed Handroll Bar delivers a perfect balance of freshness, precision, and creativity in every bite. The seaweed is crisp and vibrant, the rice is perfectly seasoned, and the fish tastes incredibly clean and high-quality“

“One reason I really like this place is the fast service but you have to wait to get seated without reservation. Even if you joined the waitlist, you still have to wait when you get there so it’s kind of frustrating. But on the plus, once you’re seated, the service is quite fast from there on. Good freshly made handrolls and other items. The decor…Just my own opinion , i’m sure many loves it. The minimalist decor, I find it cold,dull and boring staring at a big gray concrete wall and kind of telling you that you need to go as soon as you’re done eating 😆 Which they literally are doing from what I’ve read. They don’t want you to enjoy any kind of artwork in front of you 😆“

“buen servicio y todo muy rico“

“My fiancé and I are regulars here! We enjoy the bento box with either the teriyaki chicken or bulgogi beef. We also enjoy the salmon rolls and Thai tea.

The prices are amazing and we are usually attended pretty fast depending how busy it is. We often eat in or takeout. I think we’ve been going here for a few years now!

I love this place, there is a gentlemen waiter who is always very nice!“

“Sushi and Chines. close by“

“Food great and employees are too“

“Great service and very friendly staff“

“I got the most simple 3 hand roll set. It was good, not exceptional but I enjoyed them. The green tea I ordered was closer to matcha in water than brewed tea which I think is strange, and I also ordered a “Mochi” from the menu which ended up being an ice cream mochi. It was not labeled as being ice cream, which is common in sushi places in the US, but it was not labeled as such, so I thought it was just mochi. I still ate it because it was a reasonable price and it was good. The people working there were exceptional, especially the sushi chef working closest to me was very personable and kind.“

“I’ve been here a few times now and it’s my new favorite sushi spot. The food is fresh to death with a mix of classic favorites and fun new dishes (the cilantro roll is to die for). Ben has been my waiter twice and I love the banter with him as much as the food. 10/10, chef’s kiss.“

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

“The whole experience was amazing. Service was quick and friendly. They were very knowledgeable and made great recommendations. The chefs quickly made our rolls and each one was better than the last. With everything being made right in front of us, you could tell that everything was fresh and of the highest quality. This time we got the 5 hand roll set, a H.Y.E., and, our favorite, Uni Shooters. I cannot wait to come back and try the bowls next time!“

“My favorite sushi in the valley and the prices can’t be beat“

“been going to kogane for years and have always loved chef fumi’s nigiri omakase
as soon as chef roe told me chef fumi left to open osusume fumio i made a reservation immediately!

walking in and being greeted by natsuko and chef fumi’s smiles felt so nostalgic
the vibe is warm, conversational, and intimate;

chef fumi’s nigiri pairings are absolutely impeccable; perfect balance every single bite, my favorite this time was the anago

honestly i think they’re undercharging for this experience; even after the 15 courses we ordered the uni hand roll and chutoro as encore bites and they were both GASS despite being full

especially considering the price, highly recommend trying this place out!!! (parking is also quite easy since it’s the atwater village for anyone concerned about LA parking)“

“Healthy seafood & friendly atmosphere“

“This restaurant is absolutely incredible! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of great energy. The vibes are unmatched—perfect for a night out with friends, a date, or even just to treat yourself.

The food? Out of this world. Every dish is bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. The ambience ties it all together—stylish yet cozy, making you want to stay a little longer.

The service was just as impressive—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell the team takes pride in creating a memorable experience.

If you’re looking for a spot with amazing food, amazing vibes, and an unforgettable atmosphere, this is it. Highly recommend—you’ll want to come back again and again!“

“Zen Toro is SO good 😍 the sushi is always fresh and solid. I’m obsessed! I usually get the Big Papa hand roll, Double G roll, Elite roll, and Screaming Albacore roll. Their sashimi is amazing and the spicy tuna crispy rice is a must. Honestly everything is good—you can’t go wrong!“

“Wanted sushi before heading back home from Universal Studios was tired of 2 days park food. Found this place thru Yelp and it didn’t disappoint. We loved the fresh Uni, Chu Toro, & Monk Fish Liver nigiris. Everything was good! A very expensive lunch but was worth it ❤️👍🏼. Very attentive staff too.“

“Everything!!! Such a fun place to eat and the food was good!“

“Sushi Monster – Montrose

We had a great experience at Sushi Monster in Montrose. From start to finish, everything felt relaxed, welcoming, and well taken care of.

The rolls were the standout — beautifully presented, generous portions, and packed with flavor. Each roll tasted fresh and well-balanced, without being overpowered by sauces. The nigiri and sashimi were equally impressive, clearly made with quality fish and attention to detail.

What really elevated the meal, though, was the attentive and friendly service. Our server was knowledgeable, checked in at the right moments, and made thoughtful recommendations without ever feeling rushed or pushy. It made the entire experience feel genuinely enjoyable.

If you’re looking for a reliable local sushi spot with excellent rolls and great service, Sushi Monster is absolutely worth a visit. We’ll definitely be back. 🍣“

“This place is a hidden gem. The people who own it are authentic in every sense of the word. Ignore the reviews from people who have clearly never taken a single step outside of their comfort zone or culture, let alone the country. They fail to understand that the serious demeanor from the staff is a show of respect not a lack of hospitality. I implore you to try the regular sushi and sashimi to taste the freshness of the ingredients that you can tell they work very hard to procure.“

“Ordered take out from Nakana after having a really good meal at their other omakase spot in Montrose. Been looking for a solid takeout sushi option for awhile and so happy I’ve found it! Ordered 16 pc sushi combo and was pleasantly surprised it came with miso soup and a nice little cabbage salad. The nigiri was fresh and the rice was tasty and just the right texture. Presentations for takeout was surprisingly nice, we didn’t re-plate anything at home, just ate straight from their containers. They can expect to see us a couple Fridays a month from now on!“

“Todo delicioso y exelente atencion“

“Amazing place for enjoying with family and friends.. food is just awesome!!! Exceptional service.“

“Very nice atmosphere and good food.“

“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.“
