    I usually order only one main thing here which is their 'Trust Me Nigiri Special'. I think it's worth it if you eat it for lunch because I believe it is cheaper during lunch hours and they do have happy hour for alcohol too. The service here is pretty decent and the workers seem very friendly. The chefs also are very hard working as well. If you come for lunch they have a ramen/udon combo with the 'Trust Me Nigiri Special' which is the bang for your buck honestly. It gets me super full and satisfied. Their garlic fried rice is good too if you're wanting something to fill you up on the side. Good place to just come with some friends when you're craving sushi or just to grab a few drinks after work!

    3.5 stars Pros: Happy hour specials - 50% off beer and $3 sake and wine Reasonable prices Wide variety of menu items Premium sushi in some of the sushi sets - Chirashi deluxe and 'Trust me nigiri special' came with a piece of uni. Cons: Thin cuts of sushi Presentation was lacking Slow service Rice to fish ratio was off Overall, I thought the sushi was mediocre and not worth going back for.

    AYCE sushi for $32.95. Enough said! I wish I had this back in the Bay Area. I would be back every week. The menu is insane! You can order anything from sashimi, nigiri, hand rolls, special rolls, udon, ramen and and huge selection of appetizers. The list goes on you definitely get your bang for the buck! The quality of the sashimi is fresh and we had rolls after rolls. We were in sushi heaven and I had just enough room for a bowl of spicy tonkatsu ramen which came in the most perfect personal size. Outside of the AYCE menu, they also have a great selection of all your Japanese favorites. Pull up a seat next to the sushi bar and dig in! I'll definitely be stopping by Kashira to get my sushi fix the next time I'm in town. Thanks for the intro ctak! :)

    Albacore salad and yellowtail nigiri

    I popped in for lunch recently. Not sure about the parking sitch because I walked across the street from my office, but it is right next to the purple line subway stop. My coworker and I received a friendly greeting and were promptly seated at the sushi bar. I'm avoiding rice so went with an albacore salad, but splurged for some yellowtail nigiri as well. Received our food in under 10 minutes despite it being peak lunch time. My salad had fresh albacore, avocado, lettuce, radish, carrots, bell pepper and sprouts. Everything tasted super fresh and the dressing was tip top, a bit on the sweet side but a fine complement. The nigiri was top notch as well - rice was super moist and the fish was incredibly tender and flavorful. I skipped the beer but they have some lunch specials for the day drinkers. Prices were very reasonable all around. There's no shortage of sushi/ramen options in the vicinity, but Kashira is going on my sushi speed dial from now on. Looking forward to my next visit.

    I came across Kashira towards the end of my daily afternoon walk in the neighborhood. I had been wanting sushi for some time now, especially given the current crisis. I was happy to see that Kashira was open and the menu was for the most part ok. They did not have any Japanese fish like snapper due to the current climate but I was able to order some salmon, negitoro, salmon skin handroll, ikura, and also two bottles of sake (new temporary LA ordinance now allows alcohol to be included in to go orders). During my talk with the chef and the host, I discovered that they are both from the Bay Area, which is where I just came from having lived there for the past six years. I'd say Kashiri is fine and the service that was given to me, again the first time I patronized the restaurant, was good. The sushi pieces were good and I would be ok with going back to Kashiri.

    This place is no longer Japanese owned and operated. Prices have gone up by about 50%, the food was so so; and the service was horrible. Used to love this place but never coming back again.

    Loved the all you can eat sushi here. The sushi was fresh and great cuts. And they gave the right amount of rice. I'm surprised this place hasn't risen exponentially in popularity due to this AYCE sushi. Great sushi for the price. And the variety is also amazing! They have appetizer and also other side dishes to compliment the AYCE specialty. I'll be back for sure. It was delicious and the service was nice as well. Thanks so much!

    You know they're serious about their food when you find the menu posted on the bathroom walls. No joke, though. Kashira is legit. My friend and I came here on New Year's day 2017 and this is my first Yelp review of 2017! Best sushi I've had in socal. I've posted several pictures of the menu as well as the lunch special. My wonderful meal included the Nigiri Trust Me Special and a mini Kyushu Tonkatsu ramen plus an extra order of uni nigiri and wagyu beef nigiri (I split these last two with my friend!). The portion sizes were reasonable, with only a moderate amount of rice per nigiri; the mini-ramen was the perfect size! The chashu (piece of pork) was generously sliced. They also include a fried shrimp head in addition to the amaebi (sweet shrimp). Also, I saw how big the regular ramen size is (see uploaded picture) -- it's huge! Not only was the fish undeniably fresh, I was also pleasantly surprised by the prices! The restaurant seems to also specialize in aburi (seared) sushi. I got a sneak peak of the sushi chef using the blowtorch when he used it on the wagyu, and I'm so excited to come back to try it! Service was a little slow, but the bright side is that there's free parking on Oxford. I was tempted to keep Kashira a secret all to myself, but this spot is just too good not to share!

    Toro Sampler!! Was so Delicious and very reasonable price! $18!! 5pcs of toros

    I think many of the reviews about service is spot on. My first time here, so consistency of food quality is something I can't speak to, but was mixed for me based on what we ordered. I'll start with service and menu, because that does set up the food, or in our case, could have set it up better. My sister is a semi regular and the reason we came here. The AYCE option sounds like the best value and confirms by my sister, so that's what we went with. First off, make sure your full party is on time and in synch, because the AYCE menu requires it. You only get three rounds, which really wasn't an issue, but it does play a role in what and how you order. Confused? Yeah, me too. Then there are sections of the AYCE menu that are limited for round 1, then charged for round 2 and 3. There is also a section where you can order and pay for some premium options at a discount. Sounds good and i really think they are trying to give you extra options at a discount, but the 3 round limit just makes it confusing and difficult with a party larger than 1. Everyone in the party has to order from the special section of the menu at the same time, cause if you don't, than you have to pay in round 2 even if you didn't order everything allowed in round 1. Kind of makes you want to over order in round 1, which we did and was happy about that, so we thought. Then the food starts coming in and we don't know what's what, cause the waiter doesn't tell you what he is dropping off. So annoying. We kept asking him and he would tell you sometime and other times, just didn't. If you love sushi like we do, it's pretty obvious which ones were from the premium section, but it would be nice to hear it from the waiter. Don't get me wrong, the server started off strong, but the back and forth from all the questions about the menu wore on all of us and it was obvious about half way into our meal. By the way, we never even got to round 3, so if you go, don't let that play into your orders. As for the food, quality of most of the seafood was pretty good. It did seem like by round 2, a little less care was taken into how some of the seafood was sliced, but quality was still there. I may go back since it's one of my sisters go to's and we are all a little more experienced with the menu, but what's the point of AYCE if there are so many restrictions and rules? Seem like there Trust Me menu was popular and something i would have ordered, but makes it hard when the AYCE is only a few bucks more. Hmmm? Finally, one reviewer mentioned the check in special for a soft drink and I appreciate that. I e were seated right next to the sign/artwork with the free soft drink offer with check in inside. My sister even asked to claim it, but glad I didn't ask cause the current check in offer is for AYCE at $32.99, the same price posted if you don't check in. WTH? Hey your shit together and maybe you will have a higher rating, cause obviously they do some things right.

    Lunch special: ramen + eel bowl | chords hi + small ramen!
    Rebecca W.

    I swear I was slapped in the face by the fragrance of fresh tempura. The restaurant interior is clean and beautiful, and the menu is extremely extensive. In fact, it is a bit overwhelming. There are SO many choices, and the Kashira makes sure you know it: they literally have the menu posted everywhere...walls...napkin holders....EVEN TAPED IN THE WALLS OF THE BATHROOM LOLOL. My friend and I both ordered lunch specials, which are great combo deals! My friend got the Ramen + Eel bowl, and I got the Chirashi + Mini Ramen bowl. The ramen broth was absolutely delicious. I was confused why they only included 1/4 of an egg for me, and 1/2 an egg for my friend. Hers was a full ramen bowl, so didn't it deserve at least a whole egg? Jeez. The chirashi bowl was delicious as well, and the fish tasted really fresh. The chef behind the sushi counter was more attentive to us than the waitress. He constantly checked up on us (from behind the counter), asking if there were any problems or if the food was good or if we were ready for the check. Oh yeah...the check. After we finished eating, we tried to ask for our check many times, but the waitress A) took forever and B) kept attending to other customers before us. Finally, the chef got her attention and told her in Japanese to give us our check. There's a parking garage for the restaurants in the plaza, and Kashira does validate. Woo! +a million points bc parking in Ktown is a nightmare.

    Didn't come to try out the food but the happy hour before enjoying a concert at the wiltern . $10 for a pitcher of Sapporo is a great deal -perfect for sharing .

    Happy hour beer! $6.50 pitcher of Kirin
    Yenny D.

    Happy Hour everyday from 5-9pm?? Awesome! Of course, the happy hour only covers alcohol - $1.90 Kirin, $6.50 pitchers, $3 for sake or wine is pretty good! Came here with a friend for dinner on a Tuesday. We were seated at the bar right away. FOOD: - spicy kyushu tonkotsu ramen - delicious broth! Offered in mild, regular and extra spicy, we tried the regular and it had a nice healthy kick of spice. Broth is rich and flavorful without being too oily. Noodles are chewy and eggy, chasiu is tender and egg is soft boiled. - pork tonkatsu curry - served with miso soup, rice and salad. Katsu is crisp and I loved their house curry. Yummy and filling. SERVICE: Excellent and friendly! We asked for extra bowls since we were sharing and they offered to split our ramen into 2 bowls for us! :D They even cut the egg in half. Super friendly staff. VENUE/PARKING: Venue is fairly spacious. There's a large bar counter area surrounding the sushi bar and several tables and booths. Bathrooms are clean. I think they validate for parking within the structure, but we walked over. A delicious and welcome addition to Ktown! Will definitely be back for happy hour drinks!

It's so rich and comforting, the fish is always perfectly cooked, and it's more than enough food for two people. Be sure to order a side of seaweed and make your own hand rolls at the table. The kabocha salad is also unexpectedly delicious and pairs well with the other indulgent items in this order. They recently moved next door and they may be overbooking themselves so expect to wait quite a while- even if you have reservations.

    The food, the ambiance, the drinks...all of it so well curated at Budonoki…read more This restaurant offers Japanese style bar foods with an elevated twist. Everything we ate was delicious. My favorite dishes were the zabuton and sweet potato. For dessert you can't skip out on the soft serve.

    spicy tuna handrolls ($15) - im usually not a big tuna lover…read morebecause it's less juicy and fatty than a good old salmon but this was surprisingly REALLY YUMMMY - tuna was well seasoned with spicy mayo and the chili crisp added a fun, crunchy texture - i like the diy hand roll concept - every bite was with a nice amount of flavor, refreshing, chewy from the rice, and crunchy - a must! charred sweet potato ($12) - flavors and texture were not what i expected! - it was nicely mushy, blended with miso butter; abundance of chives on top - sweet and savory - not too heavy and i enjoy it as an appetizer or snack negima 2 skewers ($17) - this was BEYOND my expectations because i always feel like skewers are so expensive for something so short, tiny, burnt, and mid - HOWEVER, this was exactly the opposite; while it is still expensive, everything on the stick was juicy whether it was the jidori chicken or the scallion - skewer itself was already flavorful so i avoided the sauce on the plate as it was a bit too salty for my liking - a must order! It was just so impressively juicy and tender with great flavors scallop crudo ($24) - juicy! Solid appetizer although i feel like the cuts can be thicker and more fresh - i especially liked the slices of citrus pairing; it didnt feel extra but a nice complement to the smokey, strong green sauce on the side - ive had better crudo but this was pretty good still yakisoba ($19) - i love noodles omg although i dont know why the noodles here were cut very short LOL and it is on the softer side - the sauce was really yummy; sweet and savory; i believe it's okonomiyaki sauce or something similar; on the saltier side so itd be nice if they just lessen the amount of sauce - the texture was slightly crunchy with cabbage and veggie which i liked - wagyu was tender - not a must order because you can make this easily at home and for way cheaper! 6 pcs wings ($15) - i got enticed by the soy garlic hot honey flavor but the wings from bbq chicken are lowkey better - still a good, tender, juicy wing, but nothing memorable or impressive than your average wings that you can make at home rating: 4.5/5 - ordered 6 items and everything was solid! Of course there are areas for improvement but they're not anything jarring that would lower my rating for this spot - it is also extremely rare for me to like everything i order at a restaurant so the quality is definitely there - super friendly and genuine service! Server took her time to explain and accommodate us - casual date night tapa vibes; not your typical bright japanese izakaya spots but more so a dark, moody bar vibe, which is cool - would recommend and come back to try other items!

    The inside is low lit & gives an elevated ambiance. Service was fantastic and very attentive. We…read morestarted with the pacific oysters & spicy tuna crispy rice. The pacific oysters are a good size and I really enjoyed the yuzu-kosho ponzu sauce on it. The spicy tuna crispy rice have a good amount of spicy tuna on top & I loved how crispy they made the rice underneath. The Kodo trio comes with uni, toro, & wagyu and the Toro sampler comes with o-toro, chu-toro, akami. All of these handrolls were phenomenal & just left you wanting more. The Wagyu katsu you cook on a hot stone at the table which I liked as an interactive dish. The Wagyu cheeseburger was dripping with juice but still had those crunchy edges. The Uni pasta was beautiful & delicious. The Chimichurri prawns I could eat multiple plates of- the shell comes sliced down the middle so you just have to peel it off. For dessert we ordered the Kodo basque cheesecake & Miso chocolate torte. I love a basque cheesecake & the sesame crumble added great texture. The miso chocolate torte made me wish I ordered my own. Everything from start to finish was amazing, it's hard to pick favorites. Parking- valet $13

Food is delicious, drinks are good, and parking isn't hard to find if you're willing to walk a little. The design kinda dark inside, but the patio is always nice. The best part? I can be in and out in less than an hour if I wanted!
