50 Best Sushi Bars near Valley Glen

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

“This is place is fantastic! It is such a unique experience, the food is delicious, fresh and so satisfying. We ate our food so quick that i didn't get a chance to take pictures of everything else we ordered.My husband and I have been coming here since late 2000's and so happy to support his business for many more years ❤️“

“best rolls in the Valley don't go anywhere else“

“Has the best poke around the area by far! Tried another poke place near there and instantly regretted it so if you’re by the area always pick this place! They offer really good portions and the fish is always good. The only complaint is now they’re offering a coffee and matcha and if you don’t know how to make it just don’t sell it. Got the ‘matcha’ iced latte and was served a glass of milk with green tint it was just sad. Who orders matcha to drink a glass of whole milk?“

“That sounds like a fantastic dining experience“

“Fantastic quality and taste. This is hands down my new fave in LA for sushi. When they get their liquor license it'll be packed non stop. Really nice help and attention from the team. Try the inside out salmon roll, melts in your mouth!!!“

“Easily one of the very best sushi places I have been to here or in Japan. We went for a birthday dinner and chose the Omakase (option 2). It was an incredibly well balanced meal including many of our favorites. The quality is just perfect. Temperature, freshness, taste, everything from the fish to the rice, toppings and soy sauce.

The service is super good, such a friendly staff. chefs and owner. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back.“

“Superb place. Unfortunately Jonny Won (?) left couple of years ago but the current Chef is more than capable of upholding this restaurant's glowing reputation for exceptionally fresh ingredients and superb cooking skills. My only advice is to stick to fish and leave the meat dishes as, although nice, are not quite "wow" as they used to be.“

“Just had a self Omakase date and I have to say, the detail that was poured into each dish, flavor wise, was really special. Even just the sashimi pieces themselves really had great complimentary garnish flavors that weren’t even noticeable just looking at the fish.

Great service and throughly enjoyed.“

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

“This was our first time at Leona’s Sushi House, thanks to a friend who suggested we meet there—and honestly, we fell in love with the place right away. The vibe was just right—relaxed but lively—and we scored the best seats in the house, right by the open-air window on Ventura. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot to people-watch and soak it all in.

Our server was very friendly and made us feel at home. She even joked about losing her voice at the Beyoncé concert she’d just taken her daughters to—definitely a fun icebreaker.

We all went for the Omakase, and it was such a treat. It kicked off with a mushroom miso soup, then halibut sashimi topped with truffles (so good), followed by a couple of trays of assorted nigiri, and then a crab handroll. Even though we were stuffed, we couldn’t resist dessert, so we shared the chocolate lava cake, and banana puff pastry, and brought the caramel flan home.

All in all, it was an awesome night—great food, great company, and a place we intend to visit again.“

“Not sure why this place doesn’t have 5 stars. Found this place about a year ago and every time we are in LA we make a point to come during happy hour and get their mountain roll & crispy spicy tuna. Service is wonderful and attentive. Sushi never misses. Always so fresh. 10/10 recommend!“

“Phenomenal experience and the staff was excellent.“

“Little Izaka-ya is my go-to neighborhood sushi spot, and it never disappoints! The servers always remember me, which adds such a nice, welcoming touch to every visit. It feels like a place I can count on for a great time and delicious food every single time. The sushi rolls are consistently fresh and full of flavor, but my personal favorite is the white fish roll—YUM! It’s always a treat. I also love how easy it is to make a reservation, making dining here super convenient. Whether it’s for a casual night out or a special dinner, Little Izaka-ya always delivers. Highly recommend!“

“we went there for a quick bite and some drinks, our bartender Wyatt was so lovely, he turned my vegeterian friend to a pescetarian! he recommended the octopus, which we both really loved. the atmosphere was great too, definitely worth a try!!“

“seats 10 for a personalized tour of sushi for the purist. exceptional style and quality of fish. superbly presented by a Michelin star chef on front of you. book far in advance“

“Leo is the best chef. So kind, personable, and knows his sushi. He makes just about everything from his ginger to his soy sauce from scratch even though he’ll tell you, “no soy sauce” for most of the sushi that comes as it should be eaten. Best sushi restaurant on Ventura Blvd by far. Make sure to try his dry aged fish!

Parking: There are a few spots behind the restaurant.“

“Probably the best Sushi/Sashimi place in Los Angeles.
I know fresh and quality sashimi/sushi and this probably the freshest I've seen in a long while. The owners are super sweet, top notch service and the restaurant interior is so clean and comfortable. Again the quality of the fish was above the norm.“

“Super tasty! King Yubu is a little hidden gem kind of place. Really delicious Korean style sushi. Think like little pockets with all kinds of fillings on rice. I got the Signature King Yubu, the spicy pork belly and the unagi Yubu with a spicy tuna and tempura sushi roll. All really good we also tried the kimchi loaded fries really big portion definitely a shareable portion. It was corn cheese with kimchi on the seasoned fries you can get different toppings like fried chicken or bulgogi but just the fries by themselves were super good so we went without all the extra. Definitely coming back to try the other options on the menu looks like new updates and ideas coming to the menu all the time. Great job chef.“

“Amazing food and service, chef Hilo made my experience feel like I was truly understanding each bite I took into my food. Amazing atmosphere“

“great food. Good service. decent prices“

“The food was amazing!! Great experience.“

“I pop in here probably once a week sometimes twice for a glass of wine. The bartenders are very cheerful and informed with respect to varieties and flavors and all the jazz. They walk you through the options and make tip top recommendations. The place is always slammed at night, yet the manager is extremely accommodating and always finds a place for me to chill and savor the weekend ambiance. I’ve never had their food, but it looks delicious. All the servers are friendly and have excellent people skills. The outdoor space is a fun hang too if you have a group. I always feel spoiled here. 5 star experiences.“

“Wonderful sushi spot. Plenty of parking & a great place ro dine with friends.“

“Came here for lunch and the food did not disappoint. I ordered the lunch combo with a California roll and sashimi and everything was delicious. The place was busy and we waited a little bit to be served but nothing to complain about. Everyone was so sweet and friendly, I will be back!“

“During my trip to the U.S., the best food I had was sushi. The quality of the fish was exceptional, and everything from the appetizers to the dessert was perfect. You could really feel the care and high-quality ingredients in every dish. The service was also incredibly friendly. I enjoyed a delicious omakase with friends in a private room. If I ever travel to the U.S. again, I’ll definitely visit this place again. Highly recommended!“

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

“We ordered 5 different rolls. This is our new go to spot for to-go sushi. Everything was packed neatly and the presentation was excellent and appetizing. 10/10 quality and taste. We ordered the dragon roll, spider roll (omg so hard to come by), tempura and crunchy and salmon rolls. All left us satisfied . I recommend.“

“Прекрасное обслуживание, всё очень вкусно.“

“There are so many sushi places in Studio City. This is just inside Sherman Oaks by one block, on Riverside, so it's a real neighborhood place. The food is great. Truly homemade. Everything is fantastic. The host, Ben, is stellar. Kind, attentive, and very helpful and knows the cuisine. A great place ... and our secret, okay?“

“A great meal to celebrate our 8th grader’s MS graduation and my FIL’s 75th birthday! Thankful, too, for the Katz family’s support of our school’s fundraiser back in April - we were able to use a gift card we had won at that event.

Definitely a “seen and be seen” kind of vibe, but we did not feel out of place at all and the service was warm and welcoming and super accommodating of both our youngest son’s allergies and our large party. Thank you so much, especially Katrina who was patient and attentive throughout our meal.

Rolls were delicious, the whole crispy fish was a showstopper, and the drinks were perfect. All in all, a superb evening!“

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

“They have the best rolls! Very reasonable price. We eat here & to go very often“

“We went here for our wedding anniversary and we loved loved the whole experience! I’ve had many omakase before in LA, Toronto & Japan and this was top notch. I was obsessed with their pickled ginger as it appears to be house made. I would come back just for that! Just kidding but not really. We’ll definitely be back! I wish them continued success!“

“We had a very nice dinner here. It was highly recommended by a friend. It is a cute little place that fills up quickly. We ended up sitting outside with some heaters, which was quite nice. We tried the Brussel sprout appetizer, and it was excellent. We ordered the Asian roll, the lobster tempura roll as well as the soft shell crab roll. All were very good. The negima, which is chicken on a stick, was very tasty. We finished with mochi, which was perfect.“

“This is quickly becoming my favorite sushi spot in LA. Might be in the top 3 for best sushi I’ve ever had in LA. Not just because of the quality, but because it’s paired with the friendly and generous staff (complementary dishes!!), and the creativity that always gets it right. Everything is SO GOOD.

Highly recommend making this your go-to spot too… just save me a seat!“

“super fresh of fish and peaceful interior“

“Great sushi place with high quality fish and great service. I would highly recommend the crispy rice with tuna and the Tuna Lemon roll. Fish was fresh and melted in mouth. The hand rolls and nigiri were also great, but I mainly struggled to enjoy certain cut rolls like the Moon Roll and Spicy Salmon roll. While they were still delicious, there was a little too much mayonnaise which made it hard to enjoy. However, other cut rolls, which are not as mayo dense, such as the Tuna Lemon roll, were incredible and flavorful. Overall, I would come back to try the sashimi and other hand rolls. But for the time being, other sushi places with similar price ranges provide equally as favorable rolls with less mayonnaise“

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

“Great quality salmon, sushi's tasty, however the tiger steak is NOT worth $45, maybe $15 (and that's being generous because it comes with rice and a small side salad) but definitely not $45 friggin bucks, save your money for the sushi because the sushi's delicious“

“Great place, very consistent with the quality of fish. Please go check out Jesus with his recommendations of substituting certain fishes in certain rolls. This place craps on the Katsu-Ya off topanga. Came here for my birthday and I left like a happy man. Shoutout Jesus!!! Only complaint is the parking in the plaza but what can you do 🤭“

“Very delicious 😻 very beautiful presentation“

“We really enjoyed our dining experience at Kenbey. The sushi is fresh and you can tell the chef cares about each piece he serves. I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because of 3 things. The first is that I didn’t like the sauce that came on the hirame and the sauce on the albacore with the slice of garlic. Second, we tried the Hokkaido uni, it was a very dark orange (so not the freshest - we should have gone with the Santa Barbara uni) and so bland and flavorless. Third, for the prices they could add some decoration.
I would still recommend trying Kenbey. The service was excellent and overall pretty good!“

“This was our first time visiting Sushi Hon, and it didn't disappoint! Food and service, wonderful; and the music and loud conversation really set a pretty enjoyable atmosphere. I think I just found my new spot! 😋🍣🥢 #Sushi #Restaurant #Dinner #GoodFood #“

“Budonoki is a very special place. Food is innovative and exceptionally delicious. Wide assortment of flavors, ingredients and textures. We tried an assortment of plates and all were delicious. Excellent service. A warm and inviting environment where guests are treated like family.“

“Clean, fresh, delicious sushi at delightfully reasonable prices. And the new owners, a family of three, are super friendly and fun. Highly recommended!“

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

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

“Amazing spot! Will be back for sure!!“

“The best omakase experience we’ve ever had so far! We were so impressed by the creativity of each dish. Every sushi was so well seasoned and each of them had such unique flavor and texture. The chef Shin introduced each type of fish to us with stories and pictures, making the whole experience even more special.

Thank you Sushi Miyagi for such a great meal and for hosting us with such great hospitality and friendliness. We will definitely come back!“
