The woman who runs the restaurant, Sunya, is the best part. She's attentive and cares about the reception of the food. Her attention to details is noticeable in the choice of silverware, and she quality checks the presentation and tabling of every meal. Thoughtful, deliberate, and delicious. This is by far my favorite sushi restaurant in the area. It has been a blessing to experience the food here -- -- in particular, the appetizers are must tries. And if you have any hesitations, Sunya gives the best recommendations based on freshness and pairings for each day. read more

We went to Miya on our way from the Burbank airport. It was a Friday night around 6:30pm. Positives - parking in the lot and no wait! Servers were pretty attentive and very kind. They seemed like they had a lot of options. Got busier once we were there. Miso soup was very tasty and my daughter scarfed down her tuna, avocado, cucumber roll. The fish seemed fresh. They also give you an interesting, complementary bowl of sesame bean sprouts. Negatives - place needs updating - the ambience leaves something to be desired. They need a new menu, they have 3 different pieces of paper that they give you but none of them really encapsulate all of your options, which is odd. The "daily menu" included items that they didn't have. The spicy tuna roll was mediocre, nothing special. The garlic edamame were tasty but also very messy - I ended up ordering a separate bowl of regular edamame for my daughter. I would not order the tuna on the crispy rice again, the rice cake was very hard. Overall, it was a decent place for a regular night and if you don't want to wait. If you have time and want something with a big more swagger, I'd opt for somewhere else. read more

The chef and hostess are truly exceptional. We've become regulars and stop in once or twice a week because the food and experience are consistently outstanding. We always sit at the sushi bar, where we're welcomed like friends and taken great care of every visit. The fish is incredibly fresh, every dish is beautifully prepared, and the attention to detail never slips. It's rare to find a place that's this consistent, and it's easily one of our favorite restaurants. read more

My family and I have been coming to Miya the past two years since moving into the area. The food is always consistent and the service is attentive. The quality of the fish is very fresh! We will keep coming back especially for the eggplant dish. We also love the blue fin toro and albacore belly! read more

VERY VERY VERY DISSAPOINTED in the new mgmt. I just ordered the GYOZA that I've been eating for 10 years almost every Friday as my splurge- this new mgmt not only has hiked up the prices but now they're using store bought premade - FROZEN gyoza and trying to pass it off as theirs - DISGUSTING! I'd rather get in my car and drive and pay Hollywood prices than to walk over to MIYA anymore - horrible read more

Amazing food and great atmosphere! The chicken gyoza was absolutely incredible, especially with the sauce. It was so delicious that I completely forgot to take pictures of the other dishes before eating them. Friendly service and authentic Japanese flavors throughout. Can't wait to come back read more

Miya Sushi - Gyoza was delicious - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valley Village, California

Excellent valley sushi spot. Family owned and run. Kind and attentive service that made the meal itself really relaxing. The star of the show was the sushi. I have to mention that they also had lots of cooked dinner plate options and many people did order those while we were dinning in. We ordered miso black cod (cooked and one of my favorites of the meal), yellowtail sushi (my husbands favorite and mine), albacore sushi (husbands second favorite), salmon sushi, fresh water eel sushi, mackerel sushi (so good), rainbow roll, wet salmon roll (favorite roll), and the crunchy spicy tuna roll. Then re ordered the yellowtail sushi again at the end. read more

Surprise! Surprise! The new MIYA is NOT the old Miya!! I didnt know they had knew owners - I should have looked at Yelp! Went on a Thursday night - place was empty when I got there at 5:45. Ordered Edamame. I had to wipe each HEAVILY salted bean with my napkin to make it edible. I ordered a spicy albacore roll - it was quite small and the fish was not fresh and tasted really fishy. I ordered a broiled salmon collar which was REALLY small, took forever to make and came to the table quite overcooked. pretty pricey for the portions they serve. Since I was sitting at the bar I could see the chef preparing all the food and I will say the slices of fish for the sushi was not very generous. When I told the sushi chef I had been coming there for over 25 years, he said I had memories from the place. It was very sweet they way he said it and it made me smile. What I have are memories of the wonderful food as it used to be. read more

First I'll say the reception of when I came in for take out was exceptional. Wonderful service and they asked if I was hungry and brought me something while I waited. Very cute - clean and small inside - I want to come back to dine in. My take out sushi rolls were very good. I didn't have nigiri so will have to come back to try that. read more

Good place to get a casual and non - complicated meal. They have an easy menu. Affordable food too. Customer service is up to par. I even kid the server - one man band and he agreed with me. He is doing what 3 people can. The place is small and it was busy. But we were able to be seated right away. My daughter and I both ordered the #6 - Chicken Katsu with California Roll. It came with miso soup, rice and salad. We couldn't finish it so we have to take home half of it. We will definitely come back. read more

Coming here is like visiting friends! Came here today with my Mom. We always get such a warm greeting! The food is delicious! We came when there were the previous owners and we loved them. We still are enjoying the same delicious food with the new owners!! read more

So sad when new owners take owner, new owners are a Mongolian couple very nice, husband is sushi chef and wife is hostess just it's not the same. Sonya is very nice just the sushi cuts for this cost are the equivalent to Jinya all you can eat down the street, not the same big cuts that Toshi would provide. Plus I tried a Sean Roll and each bite fell apart as I picked it up! Sure items to start like the baked green mussels were delicious just not the Sushi, after spending $100 I won't return... read more

From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The fish is unbelievably fresh, and you can truly taste the quality in every bite. MIYA has a journey of flavors and textures I won't soon forget. The service was impeccable--attentive but not intrusive. It's clear the staff is passionate about what they do. Whether you're a sushi aficionado or new to the cuisine, you'll be blown away. I'm already planning my next visit!" read more

The restaurant appears exactly the way is in its essence : straightforward honest Japanese cuisine. The decor is simple in the most positive aspect. The service is prompt and polite. Both dining room service and sushi bar is ran by Japanese. I did a simple to go order and it was very good. Well prepared, using nicely fresh fish. I will be back for more ! read more

Tried a new place for lunch near my workplace. Miya sushi was well reviewed and close-by so I ordered the Nigiri Sushi lunch special with Spicy Tuna roll. Pretty basic. It comes with Miso soup as well. The service was friendly and my order was ready in a few minutes. I took it back and dug in. The soup was ok. Basically, unremarkable but fine. I absolutely love Miso soup and this was a Miso soup I think I'd prefer to just be friends with. My sushi was fairly tasty and good. Not great but good. I think 26 dollars was just a little bit much however as with tax this lunch was nearly 30 bucks. Maybe I'll try Miya Sushi again sometime and get some ala carte sushi items. read more

Everything about this place is 10/10. My water cup was always full. The food was 10/10. Everything was delicious and tasted fresh. It's a small location and very private and when you walk in, you feel like you're transported to Japan. Highly recommend. read more

After going to Miya Sushi for 27 years, I was truly heartbroken when new owners took over. They need to change the name of the restaurant, because this is not the type of service or food that Miya Sushi offered in all the years I was there. The quality of the fish is definitely not the same. I ordered one of my favorites, amberjack, and I don't even think it was amberjack! Incredibly disappointed. I miss my Miya family! read more

Always delicious. I've been coming here for over 30 years. Not fussy, just wonderfully fresh and well prepared. Recommend calling ahead for reservations as seating is sadly limited. read more

Miya Sushi - The lunch special is a nice amount of food. Currently under $16. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valley Village, California

This place was a fantastic sushi place and I loved it. It tasted amawing and their tempura was fantastic

The food is so great, and the staff is warm and friendly! Continues to be our favorite sushi spot!

5/5 for the food, service, and location. Mom & pop shop with great food and service. Nice, welcoming group. I was on my lunch break and decided to check this place out since I was craving sushi and a bento box. Food: I ordered their lunch special - which was chicken teriyaki & california roll. It came with white rice, miso soup, and a salad. It hit the spot! I love quality japanese food. Consistent, and did not disappoint. The chicken was tender, and had just the right amount of sauce. The rice on the california roll was fresh, and paired well with the tender chicken teriyaki. I could tell that all of the food was made fresh. Service: I came in right before the lunch rush, so I felt like I got pretty lucky. The employees here are so nice and honest. Even though I ordered to-go, I felt compelled to tip since they were so nice to me while I was waiting for my food. Location: The restaurant is in a plaza, so there's plenty of parking outside. The area is small, so I highly recommend coming in before the lunch and dinner rush. If you come before the rushes, you're only looking at about a 5-10 minute wait. Overall, would come again! Great place with good people. read more

Awesome place to eat sushi. I visited them yesterday and will definitely visit again, because the food and service is wonderful in here!

I've been eating here for over 25 years!! An absolutely incredible feat that they have been in business this long and it's because it's a family business and they take pride and care about their quality and customers. Bravo Toshi!! Albacore garlic roll, Sean Roll, and all of the kitchen items are excellent. Fresh sushi and best hand rolls around. read more

Finest sushi place I've been to in California. I'm embarrassed that I haven't reviewed it before now. Not overly trendy, thank God, extremely peaceful spot, and the service just plain doesn't get any better. Satoshi is a master of his craft. Huge recommend. read more

My bank contacted me that someone had just tried my credit card number at this for a purchase at this restaurant. I contacted the bank and got the transaction blocked. I called the restaurant to let them know that someone had just tried to use my credit card number through their restaurant. The manager was 100% jerk. Rude and unhelpful. I was trying to let him know someone was committing fraud. He proceeds to accuse me of playing some kind of game because this was the 3rd call he has had this week for the same issue. I lost it. I was trying to do the right thing, and this manager was a complete jerk. If this is how management acts to people trying to be helpful, I can't imagine their in restaurant service will be any better. read more

If your looking for truly authentic Japanese sushi this is the place. It's tiny but everything it always super fresh and delicious. They only have one sushi chef & one server at a time and they do tend to have a lot of people picking up so make sure you have time and maybe make a reservation. read more

Just discovered this place! We were all very happy with the service and food! I'm a bit of a sushi snob and I give this place a thumbs up. I also dined with a Japanese friend and she said it was great! We will be going back read more

This is the classic, good quality, excellent service sushi place you all have to try. The fish was great quality, I got the sashimi combo, so there was no where to hide in terms of fish quality, and you can tell they get great fish. The server was busy running around but still attentive. The crispy rice was different (almost like a rice cracker with tuna and avocado). They've been here 31 years and you can tell there is a loyal following, and they know their repeat customers. read more

One of the best sushi places in the valley, even in LA. This is a straight-forward no fancy roll sushi place. It's like stepping in Japan and getting the real deal. Sushi is so fresh. Chef told me he goes out every week and picks fish. The ambiance is just a basic cozy corner and the staff are super friendly. Prices are great as well. If you're looking, even if you're not - visit this gem! You won't be disappointed. Pro tip: call ahead. I believe the sushi bar is still closed and they only do reserved table seating for now. read more

With so many sushi joints in LA, and especially in the SFV - I decided to give some new places a try. I had high hopes for lunch here based on overall Yelp reviews, but unfortunately left disappointed. First impression: they are doing a good lunch business which is a good sign. Decor a little tacky with caution tape across the carpet as you step up to the sushi bar. Overall, it feels a little tired. Service: hostess is friendly, sushi chef is a little aloof. We try to engage him a little bit as we are ordering and he borders on surly. Not sure what's up - he is not busy, but definitely not friendly either. As the meal progresses, he warms up a little, but we're working way to hard. Food: is okay. Some better than others. The sushi is pretty good. Generous portions and fresh. The tempura shrimp roll is just okay. A little heavy on the batter. The CA hand roll in soy paper is HUGE. I think these hand rolls might be their specialty. It was good, but way too heavy - we couldn't finish it. Like a regular hand roll but "super sized!" Prices: appetizers are pricey - $5 for edamame, $7 for shishito peppers, and they go up from there. Sushi prices are $6 -8 each. They also have an extensive written menu with lunch and dinner combos and entrees which we didn't realize until the end of the meal. Would have been nice if someone offered us this menu when we sat down. Overall, just not enough reasons to go back, the biggest drawback being the service during the meal. All other things equal, surly service just has no place. There are too many places to go and try, hopefully happier to have your business. read more
