Best rolls!! My favorites are the Jazz and Crunch rolls -- super fresh and so yummy. And you've gotta try the spicy seafood ramen!!! I usually don't order ramen at sushi places because I'm never satisfied, but this one is the best seafood ramen I've ever tried, it's worth trying especially if you like Korean-style ramen. This place is my go-to whenever I'm treating guests! read more

Kumadori is our favorite sushi place hands down. Super fresh, reasonable prices, wonderful owner and great staff. We moved to Pasadena and still come to Glendale for our sushi, it's that good. I have many celebrity clients. During COVID a few asked me to bring sushi and when I did it was Kumadori, they were always very impressed. read more

We came during lunch and it wasn't very crowded. The restaurant is decorated with multi-colored coy fish in three different arrangements on one side off the wall and the other wall is covered with birch wallpaper. I ordered the three hand rolls that came with miso soup and edamame as an appetizer. They were all delicious and very fresh! My husband ordered the sesame chicken and thought it was pretty good. read more

I chose this place almost at random on a Monday night, and I was a little concerned that there is almost nobody inside. I decided to order four different rolls and I would say two of them was our favorite. Hawaiian and dragon roll was our favorite. Being that we were the only party in there towards the second half of our dine-in, there was great service of course! Would definitely come back again.. read more

I've been to a lot of sushi spots, but Kumadori Sushi is hands down my favorite in Glendale. Everything tastes super fresh, and you can tell they really care about the quality of their fish. The cuts are clean, the presentation is nice, and the flavor is always on point. If you go, you have to try the Heart Attack roll--it's seriously one of the best things on the menu. Also, the spicy garlic edamame is a must. It's so flavorful and honestly kind of addictive. The service is always friendly, and the vibe is chill, which makes it a great spot to hang out and enjoy good food. Definitely my go-to sushi place, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for amazing sushi in Glendale. read more

If you love sushi, Kumadori is a must. Everything is always fresh and consistently amazing. My go-to favorites are the baked salmon (so rich and delicious), the Lakers roll, and the 50/50 hand roll--absolutely addictive. I've gotten my whole family, extended family, and friends hooked on this place, and everyone loves it. And most importantly they treat you like family from the moment you walk through the door. Highly recommend! read more

All in all, Kumadori offers fresh, flavorful Japanese cuisine in a welcoming setting. The quality and variety make it worth it! read more

Our go to sushi spot. Everything tastes fresh and they are consistent. Every time we go they never let us down. They also listen with modifications like we love the rock shrimp amazing super crispy and they get it done to perfection. I think the fact that even their avocado rolls are full of flavor says a lot since they deliver quality taste with minimal ingredients. read more

You will never want to go to any other sushi place again. It's THAT good Every roll we ordered was good, there was not one that missed the mark. Garlic edamame was on point too read more

Been going to Kumadori for over 15 years now. The owner knows my children by their names and is always very friendly. Thank you for creating such a welcoming environment for my family and I. Food is awesome and has great team members. We drive here from the Valley at least twice a month. Thank you for the great service. read more

Decent sushi with good flavor. Service was quick, and the menu offered a wide variety of options. The picture menu was especially helpful when deciding what to order. Parking was convenient, just across the street. It wasn't too crowded during lunchtime, which made for a relaxed dining experience. read more

Decided to try out Kumadori sushi after seeing a friends theater show in the area. We were very quickly seated and taken care of by their staff. My wife ordered a hot green tea and it came in a gorgeous little tea dispenser. I ordered the Superman burrito which was a tad spicy (I'm not that great with spicy) but it was delicious. It's a cute little venue as well with some great food and great service. Accessible parking lot just across the street too. First 90mins free. read more

The quality and freshness of the fish is consistently amazing every single time. Everything always comes out beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. The service is also always welcoming and attentive, which makes the whole experience even better.

Today was our first time I wanted to try something new. So glad we did- I went in for my birthday dinner. Everything we had was delicious and the service was excellent. We tried so much: I loved their green tea, dynamite roll and sesame chicken. I can't wait to go back. read more

I go here often with my boyfriend the staff already know us since how frequently we go. Honestly no sushi spot can beat Kumadori. I love their customer service, their friendliness, cleanness, and just how wonderful the sushi always tastes. It is always fresh and I have never EVER had a bad tasting fish. I have been coming here for years and I have been trying to hide the spot so it doesn't get busy but I have to praise this restaurant because it always puts a smile on my face not only by the food but also because that work here. read more

Look. I've been to Japan. I've been to Nobu, Sugarfish and experienced high end sushi places. But, the sushi I carve Is KUMADORI. It's always fresh, exciting and perfect. Phoebe is always coming up with fresh new recipes. But for those who like what they like, the original rolls have always been consistently amazing with thick cuts of sashimi. Where other places skimp, at Kumadori, the chef has so much pride in her art that she would never compromise the experience of having world class sushi. I've been coming here for 13 years with my family. Trust me. read more

The service here is amazing the food even better the hostess's are very kind and give the best service

This is some of the best Sushi I've ever had. I don't have any pictures because I gobbled down everything immediately. However everything is delicious and the menu has some unique selections I've never seen before. This is my new default option for Glendale sushi. read more

My wife and I go to Kumadori every other week as our designated treat ourselves:date night hangout. We've tried half the rolls on the menu and they're all great. Super flavorful, great sized portions. The owner Phoebe is so cool and fun and all of the wait staff are excellent, especially Anna. Definitely try the Hawaiian Roll (never had anything like it at any other sushi place). Jazz Roll, Lemon Citrus Roll, and Lakers Mango Salmon roll are some of our favorites. read more

If you like your sushi fresh, fast, and fancy without going broke, this spot checks all the boxes. The fish tasted like it was sliced moments after clocking out of the ocean--clean, and undeniably fresh. The staff were friendly and quick, and the place itself is so aesthetically pleasing. Now, let's talk parking. Technically free, but only if you make your getaway before the 90-minute mark--after that, it's less "thank you for dining" and more "gotcha!" Prices lean slightly north, but if you stick to the more affordable rolls, you'll still get top-tier quality without triggering a financial crisis. If you're a sushi fan, I highly recommend giving this place a go--just don't lose track of time in the wasabi bliss. read more

I'm pleasantly impressed with Kumadori Sushi! I had to try their lemon rolls (so good), crispy tuna rice (good) and the lakers roll (also good)! The lemon rolls have a excellent balance of citrus and fresh fish flavors. The lakers rolls had mango on top so it gives the rolls a sweetness. The crispy rice was also good. We also had the Shishito peppers and edamame for appetizers! Overall, I would definitely come back to try their other rolls. We were able to walk in around 7:30pm on Friday night and we were seated immediately which was great. Service was good as well, with attentive servers always topping off our drinks. The ambiance is semi romantic and cozy since the restaurant itself is smaller. read more

Delicious!!!! I tried the California Roll, Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, and Sesame Chicken as takeout and everything was perfect. The Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice was a stand out: perfectly crispy, great ratio of ingredients, fresh fish, delicious sauce options. I feel like I would need to dine in to fully give them 5 stars but the take-out was great. read more

Prompt service! I ordered take out. Delicious salmon skin roll & yellowtail garnished with jalepano slices read more

Wow, this place is shockingly overpriced. I feel like if anyone is familiar with sushi prices they will be left wondering why they just paid double or even triple for their sushi. Also, considering the price you think that the sushi would be master fully made a fish scale on it. They took it off the bill, but only after insisted. Terrible food overpriced. read more

I like the subdued and quiet ambience, the interiors, the service, the scallops with Parmesan, sushi and their green tea infusion. I left the place zen with happy tummy read more

First time here. The sushi was fresh from all the items we ordered and the food arrived in a timely fashion. The only thing I would say is the rolls do fall apart when trying to eat. Other then that the service was good and the look of the restaurant was cozy. read more

Lots of options for sushi lovers. Cozy small space. Not too many options for vegan and vegetarian, but they won't leave hungry. Staff and food service a bit disorganized. read more

I was in the area and really craving some sushi, and this was the first place that popped up! I am so so glad I tried this place because it is one of my new favorites. I called and placed my order over the phone; it was ready in about 15 minutes. Because of COVID, you can't even enter the restaurant. You wait outside, call the number listed on the door, and they come to you. I felt very safe and comfortable with their covid precautions! I ordered the sexy roll, one of their most popular. The inside of the roll is shrimp, cucumber, and avocado, and then there is a layer of spicy tuna on the outside. It also came with two sauces, yum!! The roll was fresh, filling, and just spicy enough! I also really appreciate how well packaged the meal was, so it is easy to eat for pickup. They have individually packaged ginger for each roll, and added a small container for soy sauce and wasabi. Overall, such a great roll and place! I can't wait till covid is over to go inside, but for right now, thank you, Kumadori , for being so covid safe!! read more

Hands down best sushi joint! Service is fast and they are so sweet here. The place has a dark tone vibe which is perfect not too much lighting bugging your eyes. Sushi was incredible. The taste and the presentation. The parking is right across so you dont need to walk far. If you come on a friday or weekend it will be hard to find a spot since it is a shared parking you have to pay for but during weekdays early hours is just great. And home goods is right next door what more can a girl want read more
