Sasabune has always been a very dependable sushi spot. The traditionally decorated Beverly Hills spot has very attentive service. We went for lunch during the holidays and were able to get a table without a problem online. The negi tuna bowl and delux chirashi bowls are well sized with fresh fish. The edamame is served hot and in this instance may have been slightly in for too long. The spicy tuna on crispy rice comes with a very large portion. They also allow for a la carte ordering. read more

Sasabune Beverly Hills - premium chirashi $45 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Last night , I literally had the worst experience ever. I made a reservation at 8:45 ( which was a slot on the website) It was my best friend's birthday which I put in the notes. She was so excited to go as she went for her 50th birthday , 7 years ago. We arrived at 8:44. The waitress wanted to take our order immediately. We had no idea that they were closing or I would have never booked the reservation. We were asking about the diff sake's and she could not be bothered. She didn't offer any information and then proceeded to tell us that the last call was in 5 mins. This was 10 mins into sitting down. We were rushed into ordering and the food came out within minutes. I noticed that there was no sushi chef at the bar so anything that came out was either left over or ready to be thrown out. The sushi tasted off. It was not fresh at all. It had no taste and the texture was soggy. It was clearly the last of the fish that they would throw away as they were closed the next 2 days. At 9:10 , 3 different servers kept hovering over our table and asking if we needed anything, they just wanted us out and made it clear. I asked for water 5 times. Then they were letting us know that they were closing and we needed to pay the bill. When we paid the bill, which wasn't expensive nor cheap, $130 for 2 people. She looks at my friend who's standing up trying to finish her beer and says happy birthday. At 9:30, we had to take our food to go as they wouldn't allow us to finish it there. I couldn't eat it anyways as I was worried I would get food poisoning. They shouldn't have a slot for a reservation for 8:45 on a Saturday night if they can't provide a decent experience. So BEYOND rude and tacky. The food was AWFUL and the service was even worse. DO NOT GO!!! Save your money and your health. WE SHOULD HAVE GONE TO DOMINOS Nextdoor. read more

I did not know about this gem of a sushi restaurant was tucked in this low key parking lot! I was recommended by a friend of mine and this place did not disappoint! Some of us ordered the Omakase and really enjoyed it. And some of us ordered sushi and hand rolls and to be honest everything was delicious. The fish was fresh and was like butter! The staff was very patient and thorough with explaining each omakase dish. The restaurant is on the smaller side but very nice for a date. It's dimly lit and fairly quiet. It was an overall amazing dinner and can't wait to come back! read more

You had me at omakase! We both had the regular omakase and from the first bite to the last I was delighted with the freshness of the fish, the simplicity of the flavors and taste of each delicate bite. As each plate was placed on the table the waitress let us know what was being served, then if we should eat one or the other first and also if we should use soy sauce or not. Everything was fabulous but I will say my favorite was the tuna and the butterfish. The blue crab handroll at the end is given on my top of the list and great way to end the meal. Located in a small plaza with a small parking lot although we were able to find parking pretty easily. Ambiance is casual yet nice. read more

We had the sautéed asparagus, delicious Yellowtail cooked collar, delicious Soft shell crab , delicious Side salads , nice dressing but I wish it was the usual ginger dressing Salmon skin hand rolls, they were nice. I regret not ordering the crab hand rolls, they also looked delicious. The table ginger was so fresh and they give a nice serving. One star less because our server seemed to be rushed to take our order. Place wasn't that busy. But the food was very good and fresh! read more

Boyfriend took me here for a birthday dinner 05/2022, which was a really nice gesture! We got the Japanese omakase course for $170pp at table service. Was not a great experience at all, service just dropped off the pieces as chef made it without explanation sometimes and the pieces sometimes lacked flavor/tasted still frozen Was our first omakase experience together, though we've had it before separately- and it was not good :( so sad Go somewhere else and have your money better spent read more

Came here with some friends for omakase. It was pretty easy to get a reservation. Small parking lot but, we were able to find parking pretty easily. Our table was waiting for us and the servers worked well together to attend to our party. I enjoyed the regular omakase while other people in our group got Japanese omakase. Great place to have a conversation with a group of friends. We bought some champagne and while opening the bottle the waitress spilled some of the champagne. She apologized and brought us a small bottle of preseco. I thought that was a classy touch! read more

I was kinda hesitant about this place due to the reviews from their other branch. Our experience is definitely the opposite of those bad reviews. We booked through OpenTable on a weekday. We were the first customers during their opening. We had an amazing service from the waitresses, they are so attentive. Our water glasses were never empty. The sushi are so fresh. We ordered the Omakase Course (about ~$90 per person). My partner who has been a fan sushi attested how fresh and smooth the cut of each sushi was. The presentation is just okayC nothing really special. We had probably 12-15 different kinds of sushi. It was so worth it. My favorite was the butterfish. The sushi place is tucked into business plaza so there's a parking lots but it could get pretty busy. read more

Service - Not good Food - Very good Pros: - Rice to fish ration was perfect! Not too much rice & the fish on top was a good portion. Thick slice of fish. No skimping on the fish which I LOVED! - Fish was very fresh - They brought 2 pieces of sushi at a time which was a good pace. - Perfect lighting inside the restaurant. Not too dark but not too bright for a sushi restaurant - Servers came by frequently, so my drink was always refilled. Cons: - I wish the wasabi was fresh. Considering the price of this restaurant, I would've wanted the wasabi to be the real & fresh kind. Not the fake American kind. - Sushi rice was not traditional (As a person from Japan, I can tell you that the rice was not authentic, but nonetheless good) - ***THE SERVICE & SERVERS: Rude! And did not speak good English and was very difficult to understand. When we asked for clarification on one of the sushi, one of the server rolled her eyes and sighed. And every time they brought our plates out, they kind of just tossed It on the table. All of the ladies serving us did not have good attitudes and were not pleasant. Also, a minute after they seated us, they came and asked for our drinks and appetizers. We asked for a couple more minutes and they just stayed hovering over us which made us feel a bit uncomfortable. It was a bummer that the servers were rude and the service here was poor. This restaurant would be a lot better & a lot more recommendable if the servers were better and more personable and kind. I am glad that the sushi was great; however, considering the cost of the sushi here, I'm not sure if it's worth coming back to with this type of poor customer service. My favorite was the scallop sushi and tuna sashimi. I ordered 10 pieces of sushi & tuna sashimi & my friend ordered the Omakase set. I didn't get the Omakase set for myself because I knew that I wouldn't like some of the plates included in the Omakase set & the Omakase is more expensive ($100+) read more

Great food decent price beautiful ambience with calm music, a very nice place to go for a casual lunch. The service is good.

Just had the most amazing sushi ever! The service was absolutely extraordinary, like they were personally taking care of every single detail. The ambiance was a touch of heaven, just perfect for a relaxing meal. Seriously, it was like stepping into a little slice of paradise. Definitely going back for more! Anne was also very cute...that did help. read more

F O O D We were trying to find a quality Omakase, and Sasabune BH came up. We booked a ressy on Open Table, parked in their lot, and snagged the bar seating (there was outdoor seating too by the way). We opted for the Japanese Omakase (as opposed to the regular omakase), and it was delicious. Definitely worth what we paid! D R I N K S Although we normally opt for the beverage pairing, we didn't go with the sake pairing. Instead we ordered a few beers & sake. It was enough. S E R V I C E The sushi chef AND wait staff were super attentive. O V E R A L L The quality of the fish here was good. If I'm in the area and craving Omakase, I would definitely swing by. read more

So good. It's more traditional sushi but they do it in a special way with different flavors and toppings and warm rice. All of the sushi was delicious. Their spicy tuna crispy rice is good but very different than every other sushi spot, which is still fine. The restaurant was full on a Tuesday night and parking is not that easy in their free lot because it's shared with the other places in the plaza. The kids of people picking up at Domino's were kind of annoying, as they were crawling on top of the Sasabune tables. They were kicked out soon enough and adults were seated there. The restaurant brings out heat lamps when it gets colder so outdoor seating is pretty good there. I would get all the sushi there again and skip the sashimi and spicy tuna crispy rice. Order all the sushi and a roll. read more

Yep.. haven't been back to Sasabune Beverly Hills location in years !!! Yet, the simplicity & freshness is still as I remember it. Highly recommend the (9 course) Omakase and then you can order your additional favorites, as you desire; especially if you are like me - not a huge fan of uni which is included in their Japanese Omakase Course. The giant clam ($20/piece) was the winner for me; yet that is my weakness!!! And the butter fish nigiri was delectably a stand out. We added another butter fish nigiri order + some other favs with our omakase. Truthfully, I would say my toro nigiri was not in the same caliber of butteriness as compared to Nobu, Nozawa Bar, Koi, Matsuhisha, Otoro - but I'm admittedly particular with my buttery fatty fatty toro. (So I knocked it down 1 star to 4 stars; but I would have rated it 4.5 STARS if they offered fractional stars for personal reviews).. Of course the fresh quality & traditional presentation makes the Omakase experience adventuresome & fun. Additional highlights were the flavors of shell trio, the halibut / red snapper nigiri, & the scallop / bonito nigiri. We had a little too much dry sake & I accidentally spilled an entire bottle of Pellegríno on the floor & broke the glass. What a mess.. can't take me anywhere ?? I was trying to stay hydrated. Service was excellent & very friendly. Easy online rsvp through Open Table. Their private parking lot also makes it convenient. read more

OMG-aske. Wrong spelling yes (Omakase) but the sushi here is crazy good. We also really liked the seaweed salad and sautéed asparagus. The sake ain't half bad either. Might be a bit biased since we barely ate sushi during the 2020 lockdowns but wow .. this place is legit. We chose to come here over the Brentwood location because of the option to dine outdoors. Parking here was also pretty easy on a Sunday evening. 100% recommended and we'll start saving money to visit again soon! read more

I came here for Omakase with a friend a while ago, and I was so caught up in conversation, I didn't end up taking any photos. I don't remember specifics on the dishes, but I do remember eating most courses being like this is really good. I frequent Sasabune Express in the Palisades and I've always wanted to stop by here and I'm glad I did. We sat at the bar and my friend was chatting with the chef throughout the dinner. The ambience was pretty on par with any typical tiny, clean, Japanese restaurant. Sushi is probably all my top 3 favorite things to eat, so I'm always on the hunt for a good contender for a go to spot. This would make it on my list of top 5 places in LA. I would choose it over a couple of the big names in the Beverly Hills area, given the price/quality. read more

Friday 7p, reservations for 4 made on open table. Sat immediately, and ordered the omakase. My friends did a la carte and chose their fates. Omakase was so worth it if you're hungry and open to trying different kinds of fish. Since I didn't get the Japanese Omakase, there wasn't any uni or ikura or sweet shrimp included, but mostly really high quality cuts of fish. Is absolutely come back again and upgrade to the Japanese omakase experience on their menu. Can't wait for the next occasion to go. Thanks for the quick and great service! read more

Reasonably priced and very good omakase. The staff is very friendly, the restaurant is super clean, and the cuts of fish are always great! The fish melts in your mouth- it's always fresh and cut beautifully. I usually pay about 100 dollars a person, which is pretty standard for omakase in Los Angeles. Every visit has always been very pleasant, and my bf & I have never had a single complaint about the food. It's consistently good, and we will be back. read more

Pre COVID I came here a lot and loved the sushi here but yesterday I ordered delivery for the first time. I got the Japanese Omakase Box and was sick all night and then some today... The fish didn't taste fresh and when I tasted the uni it was just completely off so I spat it out but I guess something else must've been bad as well. I know it wasn't because of the transportation since I literally live 5 blocks away. Really sad and disappointed since this was one of my favourite spots. read more

I honestly don't ever leave reviews but after this dinner and after spending $400 on Valentine's Day, I felt obligated. The fish was not great I have had so much better for a fraction of the price elsewhere. I received a nigiri with a piece of hair ok it and only to return it with another piece of sushi with even less of quality. The server didn't even comp my the nigiri that had hair on it either! I honestly would love a refund of my entire dinner because of how the service and food was. I left STARVING! There was barely any food to be eaten for $400. I would like to return eventually in hopes that the omakase gets better. But honestly not until a receive something I return for a $400 below quality meal. read more

Great sushi and not horribly expensive. Friendly chef. You'll only find traditional here. Not trendy rolls or appetizers. Try it.

We ordered the Japanese Omakase ($130/person) and I was 100% worth it. Our sushi chef was so awesome to watch. He took so much care and even sent back eel to the kitchen because he didn't want to serve us a bony piece of eel. Everything was extremely fresh and exciting. There was a yuzu condiment that should be available for home use lol. Thank you chef for explaining the cuts and how to eat it all. Every course was delicious and the tamago at the end was fab- sweet and salty and soft! Such a great Omakase, 10/10 would recommend read more

Sasabune Beverly Hills - Sushi Bars Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Sasabune is one of the top sushi experiences you'll have in LA. I've been twice and ordered a la carte but next time will do omakase because it looks incredible and fairly priced. Like many top sushi places in LA, you come for the food not for the ambiance. Service is great though, everything comes out relatively fast and you never feel rushed. Honestly everything is incredible but my repeat items are always: 1. Spicy tuna crispy rice 2. Eel sushi 3. Uni sushi (from Japan and perfection, I never liked uni until I tried Japanese uni) 4. Salmon roe sushi (very generous portion) 5. Toro I personally wasn't a fan of the crab sushi roll, I didn't realize it was fried but that's a personal preference. Come here for an incredible sushi experience and get ready to eat! Omakase is around $100-150 which honestly seems reasonable compared to or her LA spots that are $250-300 plus. Parking couldn't be easier, there's a free lot and I've always found a spot. read more

Great service and great sushi. Appeciated the sushi chef recommending what pairs well with grilled Salmon collar for example. Very attentive. read more

Incredibly disappointed. If I could do negative stars I would. We were regulars here when it was under Chef Ei. It changed ownership end of 2018. The rice was different, the fish was precut and you can tell by the texture. The entire experience changed and not for the better. We had to find a new place for our weekly sushi fix. After 6 months, there was one night when. We couldn't get into our new regular place so we rolled the dice and decided to give Sasabune another chance. We read in the review that chef Ryo (new chef) was in charge and noticed there was another change of ownership sign on the door. Maybe things have improved? Our 1st meal with chef Ryo about a month ago was fantastic. His style and quality of sushi was similar to chef Ei who was in charge when we were regulars. It looked promising and we were excited. We went back for a second time last week and I couldn't believe how different everything was. I ordered sashimi style as I always do because if I didn't, I would only be able to eat 5-6 pieces of sushi and I'd be full. The sashimi I got were basically scraps. The shredded end pieces. I guess chef Ryo thought I didn't know better? But that wasn't all. The quality of the fish went way down too. The toro didn't taste like toro and it looked like someone just used their hands and ripped up a few pieces of fish, stacked it and put one horribly cut piece of fish on top. I wish I had taken pictures so you can all see how insanely terrible it was. If I was a sushi chef, I would be embarrassed to serve what he served me. I thought maybe it was just this one course but it wasn't. More courses arrived and they were all terrible. The fish wasn't the same quality that you would expect for the price they're charging. They looked like they were cut with dull knives by a child. I order sashimi so I don't fill up on rice. I don't order sashimi to get more fish but I definitely don't expect scraps! Just give me the same piece as you would for sushi without the rice. The fried shrimp head had zero flavor. No seasoning. The ponzu it was sitting in had no flavor. The uni was of terrible quality. The salmon roe had no flavor and the Dashi it was in was watery. We did take a photo of one sashimi course that had bad knife skills and I think he noticed so he started to try and give me pieces that were slightly bigger pieces of scraps. The fish on my husband's sushi wasn't properly cut either. This was the worst sushi meal we've ever had. Maybe he didn't think we knew better but he was sadly mistaken.This place has lost a loyal, lifelong, customer who would've been there multiple times a month, year after year. For over $300 a ticket, we'll take our money to another place who doesn't insult our intelligence by serving us inferior fish that was hacked off by a dull knife. read more

Terrible omakase. My partner and I have ordered a la carte here via postmates and have been happy with what we've had so we came in and decided to eat at restaurant.

I was craving sushi and it place was recommended to me. I wandered here on a Wednesday night. I had reservation at the sushi bar. If you want to sit at the sushi bar, I would definitely suggest making reservation. The sushi bar was relatively full when I got there even for a Wednesday night. If you forget to make reservation, no problem as there were plenty of empty tables. I definitely knew I wanted omakase and there are several variety of options of omakase. I forgot which one I had, but I decided to go for the one that did not have mussels and I am not a big fan. The sushi chef was very nice explaining each dish. The fish itself was super fresh and tasty. My favorite was the uni and eel. (That surprised me as I am not normally an eel fan, but it was pretty good). After the omakase, I was still hungry, so I ordered a few items a la carte that I enjoyed, like the uni. Overall, I thought it was pretty good omakase. However, I thought that the price was a little too expensive. I understand that I was in Beverly Hills, but for the price I paid, I thought it was a little steep. But, still good and would come back here. There is a small lot for this location. But, it got packed really quickly, so I parked on the street on Olympic. read more

A variety of chef's choice fish, on warm sushi rice, served with your choice of a hand roll, sunomono salad, with miso soup, & dessert. Chose the latter. SUNOMONO SALAD Legit.

Chef Ei Hiroyoshi does it again! AMAZING SUSHI! It's the BEST you can find in Los Angeles! 5 STARS! Gambatte! I've been a patron of Sushi Sasabune for about 10 years. My first experience was at the Honolulu, HI restaurant. Delicious. My second experience was at the Santa Monica, CA restaurant. Outstanding. My recent experience was at the new Beverly Hills, CA restaurant. The restaurant is a bit more cozy and modern than the Santa Monica location. This restaurant competes with the best sushi restaurants in Tsukiji, Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Okinawa, Japan! BADABING!!! Whenever I go to a CA Sasabune restaurant, I always sit in front of Chef Ei. He's the BEST! I enjoy that he tells his customers about where the fish was from, why he chose the fish to serve, and the highlights that you will experience while eating his sushi pieces! Sushi Sasabune is the famous "Trust Me" sushi restaurant (Omakase) where the chef decides what to serve you (given your taste preference and budget). We were served some amazing sushi and sashimi that night (over 12-15 dishes), Highlights included: Tai Sashimi: Fresh, nice chewy texture, ponzu sauce. Grade: A- Maguro Sashimi: Fresh, full of flavor. Grade: A- Red Eye Snaper: Torched, fresh, served with sea salt. Grade: A Ahi Tuna: Straight out of the oceans of Hawaii, yum. Grade: A- Chutoro: Fatty tuna from Japan. Amazing. Grade: A. Hottate Scallops: Clean, delicate. Grade: A+ Uni (sea urchin) from Santa Barbara. My favorite, deeelish! Grade: A+++ When you come to Sasabune, be prepared to have a great dining experience. Come here ready to eat the best sushi and have a great experience. Be ready to spend your money on some delicious and quality sushi! The prices are a bit higher than your typical sushi restaurant, but BOY is it worth it! The fish is from Japan, New Zeland, California, Hawaii, and it is FRESH! Chef Ei - thanks for NOT serving me kohada. You've got a great memory that I don't prefer that fish! Thanks also for allowing me to order 8 (EIGHT!) servings of the Uni Sushi. I knew you were saving it for your clients visiting from Japan. Laugh! And, I was impressed that you remembered my two guests' names. It's experiences like this that make us come back for more of your DELICIOUS sushi!!! Doomoarigato gosaimasu! Ichiban Oiishi!

I've followed Sasabune from the old location on Sawtelle to the old location on Wilshire and now to Beverly Hills. I understand the old Wilshire location has closed down and now there are two locations, one on another part of Wilshire and one in Beverly Hills. To me, it's the OG omakase restaurant that gave me the eureka moment for good sushi, so it will always have a special place in my heart. Price: $65 and up, they didn't have a choice between Japanese omakase and regular omakase at this location. Food: We were given Spanish mackerel/scallop/Bluefin tuna sashimi to start, mussels and oyster as the second course, then for nigiri we were given chu-toro, maguro, halibut, golden eye snapper, amaebi (with fried head), salmon, yellowtail, ikura, uni, butter fish, and to finish blue crab roll and negi toro roll. Everything melted in my mouth, and it was very good. I did miss some of the items from the Japanese omakase at the Wilshire location such as abalone, kanpachi, etc., but from what I remember, it was more expensive as well. Oh and we had the yuzu sorbet dessert, and it was SO good! We literally licked our bowls. Service: The wait staff was ok, but our favorite part of the night was that we ran into Yugi San from Ohshima! He was our favorite sushi chef from Ohshima (and what made that place 5 stars for me) but he had left a year ago, and I was wondering where he had gone... and we found him here tonight. So excited, he is the nicest sushi chef that delivers exceptional sushi. Parking: No valet and very small lot, we had to find street parking, but make sure you read the street signs! Parking ticket in Beverly Hills is something I don't ever want to get. It's located in a little strip mall, and it looks uber casual from the outside. Inside is pretty casual too, even more casual than the older location. I'm glad the food is still up to par though, and I'd love to come back sometime soon. As long as I don't go bankrupt feeding my sushi addiction... recommend! read more

Sasabune Beverly Hills - Omakase. Missing the yuzu sorbet photo - Sushi Bars Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Had a great dinner experience here last night. We sat at the bar and our sushi chef was the cutest. He was very smiley and friendly and carefully explained each piece of our omakase and which nigiri pieces should be dipped in soy sauce. Trust the chef and do omakase for sure (it's Tokyo style btw). The pieces of fish are carefully selected, some sauced some not, and all were fresh and delicious. Read some bad reviews about the service here but we personally received amazing service, the waitress was friendly and prompt in taking our orders, refilling our drinks, and clearing our plates. It's an upgrade from Sugarfish but not as expensive as some of the top tier sushi places in Los Angeles. There are a few different omakase sets you can choose. Unlike other places where the omakase keeps going until you tell the chef to stop, here it is pre-designated. If you're still hungry though they have an "add-ons" menu with a full list of sushi that you can order. Omakase begins with sashimi, then nigiri, then ends with dessert (albeit some differences depending on which set you choose). Restaurant is located in one of those strip malls/mini-plazas and they have plentiful and FREE parking! read more

Had lunch here last Tuesday and I was so glad it lived up to the Sasabune name. I have been to the old Sasabune on Sawtelle (still the best location, imo), the one on Wilshire and the one in Honolulu. This location seemed more non-descript than the others but the food is so good. Pros: - easy and free parking - very friendly and fast service -amazing chirashi bowl! Their version had more fish than rice! - and you can't go wrong with the warm rice! Go for lunch and get the lunch specials so you can try it before committing to the omakase! Still one of LA's best sushi spots. read more
