Fun time with family
Eugene E.

Fresh and good tasty sushi , draft beer is good quality, bento box is good and delicious

Hawaiian Roll, Lobster Roll, Lion King Roll, Soft Shell Crab Roll
FandD F.

Food, service and expectation was great. It was slow the time we arrived but overall their quick. We started off with Spicy edamame. We recommend the Japanese beer asahi, very smooth. Food has no "fishy" taste and smell. Very enjoyable.

Sunset Roll
Sona G.

Service is super nice, very pleasant and attentive staff. Its great lunch spot, but the quality of sushi used to be better 2 years ago. Still a good place to check out if craving sushi in the valley

Salmon sashimi

I'm visit LA and my friends decided to take me out. This place was the only one in the area that was open until 10pm. We sat down, ordered quickly because last call was 9:30pm. The brought the food out within mins and we got to enjoy every bit. The fish was fresh and very delicious. Everything on the table was pretty much gone by the end of the evening. The employees didn't rush us to finish up to leave. They were really kind enough to let us enjoy our evening. Would love to go back to this place!

Tuna crispy rice was really good! Great background music too. Really good service! Was not very busy on a Saturday at lunch time.

Albacore Delight Roll, White Fish, Mackerel and Eel Sushi
Katherine P.

Realized that I never did a review but have been here several times. This is my go to neighborhood sushi place. Great place to come for a Sunday lunch with the family. They have yelp wait list which is always good with a big party like ours. So many choices of you want sushi, hot food, appetizers and the staff is so friendly. For appetizers- get the yellowtail collar, crispy skin and moist fish. So good and enough for a few people to pick at or eat by yourself. Sushi- you can go wrong with anything you order. Fish is fresh and they don't over do it with rice which is perfect. The pieces on the sashimi special were super generous. Shrimp scampi roll, lobster roll and white Hawaiian are so good!

This has been on my bookmarks forever! My wife and I walked in, no reservations and they seated us…read morepretty quickly. Excited as I was, I'm glad we came here, Michelin star says it all. One of the best sushi spots I've had a in a while actually. We didn't really do any appetizers and went straight in for the fish. Started off with a couple of hand rolls, we did the crab hand roll and O toro hand roll. Crab hand roll wasn't as impressive, I've had better to be honest. I didn't let that experience ruin it for me because the toro hand roll was delicious. I think they add a piece of mint and it complimented the hand roll. Very crunchy nori wrapper and good rice to fish ratio. For our sushi we started with chu toro tuna, salmon belly, and halibut. Super fresh melt in your mouth quality. Halibut was interesting with the truffle, first time definitely won't be the last. We ended it with red snapper and black snapper. Absolutely amazing, I think the black snapper or the red snapper was slightly charred. It was so good. To say the least, this restaurant was worth it!

The place was packed and loud with music, adults, and kids. I knew what i wanted and ordered but…read moreentire service took nearly an hour and i didn't order drinks or dessert. Super slow. Nice of the chef to switch out roe for halibut for me on my omakase. However, probably the worst omakase I've ever had. No creativity, nothing felt premium, chewy fish, flavors didn't mesh, and half of it was salty. The miso soup wasn't scorching, which i appreciated at first but that meant the last few sips were fairly room temp. The real crab handroll was good. If the price point was $35 sushi set I'd give 5/5 but this is supposed to be premium omakase. I've been to other Sushi Enya locations and had good experiences, so this was very disappointing. Stick to the rolls and nigiri.

Long story short, our dining experience felt rushed. We waited about 45 min- an hour for a table. Once we were seated, we were pushed to order right away. I had come here before but it was my husband's first time dining. He needed more time to decide and look over the menu. Well he didn't get much of a chance to look at what he wanted to eat because the server was standing there waiting. Literally staring. What would you like to order? I explained to her that it was his first time here and he needed time to look over the menu and asked her if she can come back later. She proceeded to say it will take longer to get our orders in and delay the kitchen staff. That didn't end there. Right after our food was served, one of the servers came by to ask if everything was ok and if we needed anything. We said no. Shortly after, the server dropped the bill at our desk. Mind you, we were not even close to finishing our meal. I understand there are other customers waiting for a table but you shouldn't be rushing the customers currently eating. They clearly prioritize turning tables faster to make profit. It was not a pleasant or enjoyable dining experience. I would choose another sushi spot.

Our food orders came out a little sporadically so a few were done before the last ones even received their dinners. Strangely enough theyneven ran out of rice so a few had to wait until the rice was done cooking. Service was a little slow but ok, no real complaints.

It was definitely not what I've expected or ever experienced in a Japanese restaurant. We were quickly greeted by the staff and be seated by the wall. The upholstery of our seats were torn. The area where we were sitting was a bit too dark and could definitely add more lights for customers to see their menus. After giving a look at the menu, our server asked if we were ready. I said it's our first time so we need some time to look through the menu. She replied ok and left. We mainly ordered sushi items. Servers brought over each item one at a time. When I almost finished mine, my family is still waiting for theirs. You do see the staff walk by the tables constantly. However, I would hope the servers would ask how is everything and if we need anything else. Overall, sushi tastes fine. I probably won't be back given the experience that we had.

While the fish quality here is great, you will get more bites that seem a lot more experimental with flavors and garnishes. I didn't like every single bite but I expected that. A lot more focus on creative cocktails and drink pairings instead of just sake or wine. This is a great place to try Japanese whiskey, they even have little lockers where regular patrons can store their expensive bottles they've bought for when they return, and you are welcome to grab an additional drink and chill in the space afterwards if you'd like. The chefs here were a lot more personable and fun with more of a bar vibe than a traditional omakase. Service was great, dedicated bartender was great, and though it's not the best sushi I've ever tasted, I would still bring someone back here for a unique experience. Brought my friend here for her bday and we left full and happy and a little drunk so I'd say it was a successful night!

I don't think I've come close to finding another place quite like this that can match the vibe, menu, team, and sushi like you find in Japan, especially at a place like Toyosu market. For those who have been to Daiwa Sushi, this reminds me of it so much! I stopped by Monday around 1:15 and the place was still packed. They close at 2:00 before dinner but people still came in right until the end! I didn't get the name of the waitress or sushi chef but they were both so incredibly kind and attentive! And I loved hearing everyone speak Japanese! (even though I don't!) I think I ordered half the menu and it came out under $100, for the amount of sushi I ordered along with the taste and quality, you really can't beat that for LA sushi!!

The ambiance is one of my favorite parts. It's a small, cozy spot that offers a more intimate dining experience than most sushi restaurants. I do think there are plenty of other sushi spots that offer similarly great fish at a lower price point. Also, because the restaurant is quite small, there's likely to be a wait, especially during busy hours. Street parking is available throughout the area. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and would recommend it if you're looking for a cozy atmosphere and high-quality sushi.
