“Amazing and thoughtful service from Pierre!
I'm particular about my sushi, especially salmon. But I can say Azai is the best sushi I've had in California so far. The salmon sashimi is juicy and the salmon roll melts in mouth, just like my favorite sushi place in NY. I'm excited to come back!“

“Good Japanese foods , many varieties of dishes . The fish grilled sea bass is cooked just perfectly fine . The salad is kinda american Japanese fusion but still good . The carbonara noodle - I don’t really care (It doesn’t really fit with the rest of the dishes) - overall is a great place to enjoy Japanese foods“

“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.“

“my friend and I stopped at this cute lil sushi spot because we wanted a more intimate vibe than a full on restaurant. it was quaint and cozy and the sushi was absolutely AMAZING!!! Vivian and her husband were the absolute sweetest couple that treated us like long time friends. we had fantastic conversation and it is clear that they both are extremely passionate about what they do. i’m so grateful we visited during our time in LA. we will SO be back !!!! 😊😊“

“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.“

“A vegan friend recommended that we meet up for dinner on a Turaday to enjoy the atmosphere and the sunset. I had never been before and the best part of getting food with friends is to try a little bit of everything! We ordered a lot of shareable items and they were all delicious. My favorite was one of the sushi appetizers that was absolutely delicious.
We also got the matcha berry cheesecake dessert. That was a very nice balance of all flavors and did not overwhelm with a matcha flavor. I will definitely go back there again when I am in Marina Del Ray.
Note: reservations recommended. Parking can be validated for up to 2 hours. And you never know who you will see stopping by for food.“

“okay i could write an entire novel about my experience here, but i will keep it brief. my sister and i came to the WeHo Uchi to celebrate my birthday after hearing lots of buzz about it. When we entered, we were immediately greeted warmly and had a lovely exchange with the host. The ambiance was beautiful, everything was pristine and curated, and everyone member of the staff were friendly and comfortable to speak to. Our waiter—whom i sadly cannot remember the name of— truly went above and beyond with his service. We ordered the omakase for two and a few other small dishes, but he threw in two on the house— one being wagyu as a “birthday present” and the other being nigiri. We were choosing between the nigiri and a roll, and when we ultimately chose the roll, our waiter brought us both dishes anyway. Everything felt incredibly thoughtful and personal; there was even a little handwritten card wishing me a happy birthday. The food came out very swiftly—and speaking of the food, it exceeded our expectations. Everything was fresh, beautiful in its presentation, and very unique. This is one of the few sushi places in LA that I think truly lives up to the hype surrounding it. thank you for a great birthday dinner; we will be back again, again, and again!“

“I actually wasn’t planning to come here but i saw this cute patio area of this restaurant and wanted to check out.
Honestly i was so impressed of the friendliness of the staffs and the quality of the food!
My boyfriend and I ordered the Sachi boat, assorted sushi and sashimi and a specialty roll on this cute boat and everything was delicious!
Will definitely come back here. So glad to find a cute date spot to come back to. :)“

“Budonoki is a true hidden gem. Every dish is beautifully presented, incredibly flavorful, and genuinely satisfying. The owner is warm and welcoming, and the service is thoughtful—our server even surprised us with complimentary items from the chef, all of which were outstanding.
My husband and I keep coming back and have brought clients, friends, and family, and everyone has had a great experience. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate with dim lighting, limited seating, and a relaxed vibe set to tasteful hip hop in the background.
Overall, it’s a standout spot we’re always happy to return to.“

“We had the chance to celebrate Sushi Zanmai’s 1-year anniversary, and it was such a fun experience from start to finish. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and you can tell they truly care about quality and hospitality.
One of the highlights is that Sushi Zanmai has its own exclusive house sake, which made the experience even more unique. We enjoyed a sake tasting, and each bottle had its own smooth, well-balanced flavor that paired beautifully with the food. If you enjoy Japanese sake, this is something you definitely shouldn’t skip.
We ordered the Zanmai Gozen, and it was the perfect way to experience a variety of the restaurant’s specialties. The beautifully presented set included fresh sashimi, crispy shrimp and vegetable tempura, flavorful appetizers, a creative specialty roll, and perfectly cooked bites finished with rich sauces and just the right amount of spice. Every item was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and showcased authentic Japanese flavors.
The presentation was stunning, the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and every bite reflected the attention to detail that Sushi Zanmai is known for. The chefs were welcoming, and watching them prepare the dishes added to the overall dining experience.
If you’re looking for the best Japanese restaurant, fresh sushi, premium sashimi, authentic Japanese cuisine, or a great place to enjoy Japanese sake, Sushi Zanmai is absolutely worth visiting. Congratulations on your first anniversary I can’t wait to come back and explore more of the menu. Highly recommended!“

“This place is the BEST. The chef is outstanding and prepares everything with caring and expertise. The food it top notch and not too expensive. It's relaxing and homey and fun. The couple who own it are friendly and sometimes everyone in the restaurant talks with everyone else. People eat here over and over because it feels relaxing and yet the food is top notch. The chef is an expert. I can't recommend it more highly.“

“We’re big fans of Omakase and have also been to the Culver City location, which is just as good. Both spots consistently deliver an incredible experience.
The sushi is amazing- super fresh, beautifully made, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every bite. The Santa Monica location keeps that same high standard we’ve come to expect, with great service and a chill but still elevated vibe.
It’s one of those spots you just know you’re going to leave happy every time. Highly recommend if you love really good sushi and a solid omakase experience.“

“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“

“Probably some of the freshest sushi I’ve ever had. There was a flyer left on a car at the park in Torrance and I was craving sushi so decided to go try it wonderful sushi very good. Customer service very friendly. Definitely going back there for my sushi. they weren’t stingy they hooked it up with a lot of filling . They added a lot of avocado, and I got the California rolls and it had a lot of the crab made perfectly so glad I found a new sushi place.“

“Super cute! The food was fast and fresh for weekday late lunch. Ample spacious seating and friendly staff! I did not try the scallop or watch trio bc I didn't like the teriyaki or mayo/onion on the salmon. I wanted the scallops plain or with the salt sauce, but it wasn't available. But otherwise, the fish were a good temp, well portioned (cut), and delicious. I order various salmon sashimi, nigiri, yellow tail, and tuna dishes.“

“Just go here. They are amazing. Best omakase sushi in LA. The concept is fantastic, service is even better, and they genuinely understand what makes sushi good.
Honest criticism: The tamago was a bit subpar against how amazing the rest was. Secondly some may be off put by the slightly cold lighting, yet I think they are wrong in such an assessment. Sure it isn’t perfect for Instagram but it highlights the food better.“

“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 🙄“

“I have had a lot of sushi in this town, but this place is really special. The sushi is at a high level.
Every time I come, there’s a line and every time it’s worth it. And it’s not as expensive as other fancy places. This is a great place for a date. I love the vibe, young and vibrant. But the sushi that’s next level. Definitely coming back!!“

“If you love sushi and robots, Katana is it. Their sushi and robata plates are delicious (my personal favorites are the white lotus roll, fried rice, and grilled avocado). For anyone avoiding alcohol, their mocktails are also very tasty. The vibe is also great, I love the outdoor seating area.“

Did not disappoint! The food was excellent with fresh ingredients and the price is hard to beat! Should have taken a photo but was too hungry... 😅“
