Absolutely phenomenal experience! From the moment we sat down, everything exceeded expectations. The food came out incredibly fast, and every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. What truly made the night stand out was the top-notch service. Our server, Elizabeth, was amazing--attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. She really elevated the entire dining experience. The ambiance was also a highlight--the bar area had a cool, colorful vibe that added a fun and lively touch to the night. If you're looking for delicious sushi with exceptional service, this place is a must-visit. Easily a 5-star experience--we'll definitely be coming back! read more

Service horrible only two servers !!!! I literally seen both of them back and fourth like chickens with their heads cut off. Me and my husband ordered the ramen because I'm sick and not feeling well but I literally could've made it ten times better if I was feeling good. The noodle literally tastes like top ramen noodle in the cup and no flavoring whatsoever! The only upside is the place inside is nice though. Maybe it was just a bad day idk. read more

It's...fine. Might be good for the desert, but avocado on literally every roll? Seriously? Chicken Katsu was a bit hammered, though. I assume I was unlucky and that they can cook correctly. read more

We were on our way to Vegas and needed a good lunch stop in California--and we're so glad we found Katsunori Sushi Restaurant! We were seated right away, and the service was prompt and genuinely kind. The food? Absolutely excellent. The sushi had generous portions of fresh fish, and the bento box came with a hearty serving of salmon, salad, rice, and shrimp tempura--all perfectly done. Everything was flavorful and satisfying without feeling too heavy for a road trip meal. If you're craving quality sushi and a satisfying meal on your Vegas drive, this is a great place to check out! read more

Cool place. Has a great atmosphere. They have a great variety of rolls to choose from.

Great place for sushi! We eat here on Sunday's. The service is spot on. We've tried other places up here, but no one can match the flavor and service. read more

When I first discovered this place I absolutely loved it. I feel like the consistency of the ramen changes depending on when you go but otherwise the flavor is almost always spot on. I go back a lot for their tempura rolls and edamame. Their gyoza variety is spectacular as well. Always a hit at katsunori read more

Their sushi is amazing and the staff is great! Never have a long wait time. Definitely recommend

This sushi place has been around for a long time. I hadn't been in a few years and decided to give it a try when I was in that part of town. The wait on a Friday night was 45 minutes, which is typical during the weekend rush. Once seated, we saw that there were a lot of options and rolls to choose from. The food came out fresh and quick for being a packed house. Our server Vincent was very attentive and knowledgeable when we asked about certain rolls. He never let our water get too low and he cleared our plates as quickly as we were done with them. He was very enthusiastic and polite. I will definitely ask to sit in his section the next time I visit. Katsunori is definitely a contender for good sushi places in the high desert. read more

This is my wife and I go to sushi spot. The atmosphere is great and the sushi is even better. Every time we've gone we have not been disappointed. Our server Yang was amazing, she was very attentive and had made sure we were taken care of the entire time. Great great food and amazing service!!! Their menu is also very easy to order form, they keep it simple so that you can order quickly and you know exactly what you're getting. Next time you want some good sushi, come here! read more

We frequent this spot often. The servers are always great- Joe, Ying, & Christina. Rocky and his crew make the best rolls. However, on our last visit, I over heard the owner, I presume, tell her staff that they cannot speak Spanish. I did not think that was appropriate as it seems most of the kitchen workers are Spanish speakers. We enjoy coming here and like the diversity, but some times the owner(s) seem to abuse their power. I'd like to give a 5 but 3 will be good for now. read more

Food and service were awesome! The place was a lot more spacious than I expected compared to other sushi restaurants in the HD. We definitely will be returning. read more

I'm really disappointed at the level of service. They used to be very service oriented. This is my second visit in a row recently where we stood unacknowledged by the staff and the host was absent. Even tables were empty and not cleaned. This did not used to be the case. My server Samantha was awesome and gave great suggestions for beer based on what ai normally drink. I love the feel/ ambiance although I would like to hear more traditional Japanese music. Not complaining about that though. Just fix the start of the experience and thing would have been great. I ordered the Rainbow Roll, my family had the teriyaki beef and rice and two California Rolls. read more

The food was basic nothing exciting. They could improve on their service. One young man handling one half of the restaurant and one other female server not the best when the restaurant is full. The ambiance is wonderful and it has a great setting but there is product and overstock visible. Plates were left on tables. It took a very long time to get our meal and people were complaining non-stop behind us as we sat at the bar... They failed to bring out my order and I didn't bother reminding them. We didn't get any refills and I totally would have spent more than $150 if the service and attention had been better. I had my fill, and will not be returning. Thank you though and no hard feelings. read more

Parking: Plenty available! Ambience: Decently sized, although they closed off a section of the restaurant for undisclosed reasons. Menu: https://www.katsunorihesperia.com/menu Service: Friendly! Unfortunately, they seemed to have forgotten to put in one of the orders so it took awhile to get our food, but they offered free mochi ice cream as an apology, which we appreciated. Taste: Mid-tier sushi, but not bad overall considering the location. I got the Alaska Roll, which was fairly good. The baked mussels were alright. read more

My daughters and I had headed over to the 99 Cents Store on Main Street in Hesperia. As I was getting out of the car, I looked over to the left and saw Katsunori Sushi. I've been curious about this place for a while now, but never took that first step to try them out. Well, that day was our day... we took a leap of faith and walked in LOL. Surprisingly, it was bigger inside than what I would have expected based on the exterior. Lighting was dimmed, but we could still see... our eyes just had to adjust a little bit. Since this was our first time here, we took some time to look at the menu. We were ordering to-go... 1. Chirashi Bowl - We got 2 of these. I don't know all the fishes that came with it. I just know the standard ones like salmon, tuna, yellow tail, octopus, shrimp. There was one fish I did not care for... maybe it was the butter fish... I didn't like its texture. Overall this bowl was okay. The cuts for the fishes were very small for the price. 2. Spicy Rainbow Roll - First time getting a spicy version of the rainbow roll. This was very good. Wished the roll was a little bit bigger. 3. Ichi Roll - This one was okay. Wished it was bigger though. 4. Beef Yakisoba - My youngest daughter said this was really good. Wished the portion would have been bigger... size seems to be a concern here LOL. Staff was okay. We were informed our order would take about 25 mins so we walked over to 99 Cents Store to shop in the meantime. When we returned, it was a few mins past 25 mins and our order was still not ready yet. We ended up waiting for another 30 mins... almost a good hour! Not sure what was going on. They weren't that busy AND they had 3 or 4 sushi chefs back there. I really don't know what to feel about this place. I wanted to like it, but I'm just not feeling it. Probably won't return next time. Best of success Katsunori! read more

The waiter was nice but I'm assuming she's very inexperienced or new so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. We had a party of two on a Saturday, she sat us pretty fast but took us to a table that was dirty and wiped it down in front of our faces before sitting us down. So we had a wet table. Sushi was good, but weren't a fan of the teriyaki chicken we ordered with it. read more

Wish I could review the food but the service was terrible. We came around 12:30pm on a Sunday. It was not full plenty of open tables and the bar seats were open. We waited to be seated per the sign. No one greeted us. No "hello" no "welcome" from the chefs or waiters. We waited then the phone rang and they went to answer the phone. Which means they had a moment to spare to say hello. Left disappointed. Not giving one star because it was clean and didn't try the food. I would have waited longer if I felt welcomed. read more

The food was delicious, we had the beef ramen. Staff were very nice and attentive! Good ambiance as well!

This place used to be our "go to" for sushi. Looks like we'll be finding somewhere else to go. Let's start with service.. TERRIBLE. I walked our sushi order up to the server standing at the bar AFTER waiting 15+ minutes. They never came around to refill our drinks. Our table was full of dirty dishes and empty cups. We ordered a chicken teriyaki roll for my son, took them 45 minutes to bring it out. Server told us the kitchen was "backed up". Hard to believe when the table across got seated, got their food + drinks AND their bill.. all before we got any of our food. They really need to get their service/ sever situation figured out. It's a shame, this place used to be great. read more

Giving a three star rating based on service and the long wait on getting food served. Pre-COVID the long waiting was worthy. However since there's been changes which is understandable service here is not same anymore! Management needs to do a better job. read more

Why I haven't given this place a review is beyond me. I absolutely love this place! I never go anywhere else for sushi in the high desert! The food is amazing , the service is always great, staff is friendly and attentive, and everything is always clean. Highly recommend if you haven't given them a try. You will not be disappointed whether you eat in or order out! read more

The food was absolutely amazing, hands down the best sushi I've had. The smoked salmon is a must even if you're not a fan of raw salmon. The sunrise roll was fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful. Cute little spot. If I lived nearby I would frequent this place quite often. read more

The service and what up no to go. The service was so bad the last time I came in, they didn't seat us and after waiting for a menu we hust left. So next time I was hoping to get it to go and they no no call in. Only Raman and baboa what ever that is. Use to be my favorite spot after driving up the 15 and just wanted to go home. read more

Absolutely love this place. No complaints. The food is always bomb.com. I've been coming for a couple of years now and I've never written a review so I figured I should now. The wait time can be a little long sometimes but that's to be expected from a popular restaurant. I've never eaten inside, only gotten food to go. But the inside seems very nice and comforting. I should dine in one of these days. I got something called "monkey brains" today for the first time and it was very good. It's stuffed mushrooms with tuna and crab. I highly recommend. I love eel so I always get some kind of eel rolls and they're so good. read more

Katsunori is the best sushi in the desert. The service is excellent and the owner cares about her restaurant! Love it!

They have the best sushi in the high desert. The wait is usually pretty long, but it's worth it.
