Great fresh food, kind friendly service (they really make you feel like family). My favs are the albacore roll, fresh crab hand roll, blue fin, yellowtail and seared albacore sushi. Also love their baked muscles and edamame. Pretty much anything you get is delicious! read more

My fave hidden gem in the valley. I have ordered here at least 5 times both inside and to go and all experiences were good. I like how I can rely on this place for good quality sushi with good prices. They have my essentials: eel, spicy tuna,salmon and yellowtail. Note that they do have happy hour, which includes both sushi and appetizers! The tempura and spicy tuna with rice are my go to appetizers to order. The service is fast and friendly. I can rely on always having my order correct. It does feel a bit of Japan inside so even though its a small place its still an enjoyable experience to dine. Parking has always been easy as they are in a strip mall with street parking too. read more

Please don't be in a rush or with 5+ Sushi place you relax and enjoy someone who likes want they do and does it with love. I'm from LA only eat sugar fish This was better Family business, a kind family business Delicious, fresh. Geez the calamari, amazing! Service was great, left regretting not having more of an appetite. read more

As most of the reviews pointed out this is a solid Japanese restaurant. The items were not complicated, but the ingredients were fresh and everything was well made. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the seafood and the authenticity of the ingredients. It's a small space with simple decor and friendly service. read more

Holy shit...if you hate someone bring them here. Nothing is good. They can't even serve fresh or cold fish. All the sushi I ordered was room temp and discolored. Even my glass of water was room temp tap. I went to the bathroom to throw everything up. They also take fucking forever to bring your food. Pls someone shut this place down read more

Sushi Dragon - My Son Eating the cali California Box (25 Pieces) after baseball practice. Loved it. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sun Valley, California

The phrase "hidden gem" has been way overused....and I'm gonna use it again. Sushi Dragon is a hidden gem. I have driven by literally hundreds of times and never even saw the restaurant, despite having been told about their excellent sushi many times by Elite Yelper Gary I. It's tucked away in a strip mall (huge parkng lot in back btw) with no flashing lights or big signs out in front. It's easy to miss; but once you've dined here, it's unforgettable. The three of us sat at the sushi bar. If you're a regular, they will apparantly store your favorite sake in a special locker. Gary I kindly shared his delicous sake with us, as well as some delicous dishes Chef whipped up using ingredients brought in by Gary himself (clam sushi and anglerfish liver). I then went with omakase and loved every morsel of some incredibly fresh sushi. Chef clearly has devoted fans. Other patrons had driven from the South Bay area for his sushi and lots of regulars stopped by. I can see why; I'll be back for sure. read more

Food is incredible, never fails to hit the spot. We come here way too often lol and for any big occasion! Tommy is the best sushi chef, Beto making all the hot stuff in the back is on fire and the service is 5 stars. The vibe is chill and perfect for night out with friends family or solo. read more

My favorite sushi in the valley. Tommy's sushi has never disappointed. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but isn't the best food always that way? read more

The sushi here is always amazing. My adult sons brought me here for my birthday. And as usual, we had a super great time. The sushi chef/owner is a very nice guy. His name is Tommy-San. He always greats us with a big smile and is ready to have a friendly conversation. That night we had Omakase sushi, which means that it is the chef's choice on what he serves us. Everything Tommy-San made was amazing! Eventually Tommy-San joined us at our table to celebrate my birthday. He made us oyster shooters to toast my bday. Then in honor of my bday, Tommy-San brought out a special Japanese beer that is not on the menu and I had never seen before. We all toasted and shared the beer. Go visit Tommy-San. You'll be glad you did. read more

It's really quality sushi, and reliably so, my only reason for 4 stars is the location and small staff. TL;DR version: Food 5/5, Service 4.5/5, Location 3/5 Most days, there is the one sushi chef, Tommy, who is also the owner, one person in the back kitchen and one server. The restaurant only seats about 20 ppl (when they are fully open they have 2 4-person booths, 4 2-person tables and about 5 spots at the sushi bar), so ordering togo can take a while. The parking lot for the strip mall has about 5 spots, but there is ample street parking unless there's an event at the park across the street. The sushi and food is top-notch, never had a bad experience and have been coming here for years. read more

All the other reviews were right when they said this place was a hidden gem. They give generous portions and have friendly service. Sushi was fresh and tempura was grease free. This place quiet and cozy during lunch time. Only downside is they have limited lot parking but there is street parking nearby! read more

A small quaint Japanese restaurant in a place where you wouldn't expect it to be. Japanese owned and true to authentic tradition.

This place is definitely a hidden gem!!! Some of the best sushi I have ever eaten and I have tried many many sushi places. They are so sweet and the service was A+. Large pieces of super fresh sushi!!! Spicy garlic edamame are a must!!!!! read more

I made a GOOD choice, suggesting this place for a work lunch with colleagues. 1st time for us all, and the two with me were not very adventurous eaters but loved what they ordered and tried. Everything was so delicious. I loooove sushi, loooove finding hidden gems, and love unassuming holes in the wall. The chef was really cool, as was our server. I'm definitely coming back, even though I work a couple miles further away now. It's worth it! read more

Amazing! One of my go to places whenever I'm in the area. I have never had a bad experience. The owner and his family are some of the nicest people I've ever met. They make you feel very welcome and the house dressing for their salads is one of the best things I've ever tasted! You won't be disappointed! read more

They are on Doordash. Blue crab handroll is EXCELLENT. Teriyaki Chicken is great choice too. Order confirmation is quick and delivery is timely. I'd skip the tempura cheesecake as a delivery order. Perhaps, it's better as a dine in order. M read more

Tommy makes some of the best sushi in the valley. Small, friendly space. A true hidden gem!

Food was good, it's a very small intimate place with 3 tables and a sushi bar, the menu looks good but unfortunately we when in on. Saturday they wore short stuff and only one person doing most everything host, waitress, running to the back kitchen, we order calamari pretty fresh but lacking seasoning, in total order 5 different sushi rolls and they forgot one, the easy one California rolls order shrimp tempura and they cut the tail and didn't put any sauce so it look it was just different and maybe because it was busy it felt fine very rush.. would go on a better day but as for now the place has potential and maybe it's best to go during the week on slow day. read more

First timer and it definitely will not be my last. Tommy is serving up the fish like the true chef he is. He makes you feel like you are eating out of his own kitchen. Everything on the menu HITS. Ask for extra spicy for the tastiest sushi in the valley, and I have been to many of them. For a spot in the corner of nowhere, you need to try this place. Park in the back. I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. read more

Sushi Dragon - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sun Valley, California

Sun Valley is in some ways an improbable location for Japanese Sushi run by a real live Japanese Sushi Meister. Vineland is chock full of eateries that serve tacos, enchiladas, maybe even birria or a huachinango a la Vera Cruzana, but like a miraculous mirage in a fading little strip mall, Sushi Dragon metes out a flurry of excellent raw seafood, rice vinegared Sushi rice, Tempura, and other Japanese delicacies. The Sushi bar is limited with only about 6 chairs so if you want to see the Master at work creating Sushi magic, arriving before 6pm is de rigueur. Also the added benefit is that there is a "happy hour," a specially priced menu of beer & Sakè (sah keh) that goes with an assortment of snacky foods also listed in the happy hour menu which runs until 7pm. Order the "Shrimp Bomb" cuz it's great. So the early bird does get the worm at Sushi Dragon. I opted for the chilled Sakè (sah keh), Hakutsuru, in the large 8oz Tokkuri or Sakè carafe. It is a clean bouquet that has a hint of Sakè Kasu (lees), and is clean & astringent with a sweet, neutral after taste. Hakutsuru goes well with Sushi & Sashimi & acts as a good palate cleanser in between bites to refresh the mouth. Generally, like drinking a series of wine or Sakè, it's good to first drink the delicate, nuanced first & work your way toward the strongest tasting. Sushi/Sashimi may also be better enjoyed by following the same method. 1) I started with the Aoyagi (ah oh ya ghee) or Orange clam which looks like a huge cockle about 4 to 5 inches across. The flesh is firm, yet supple for the finger shaped portion, & velvety soft in the round cuts with a lively sweet, sea kissed minerality. I asked for Yuzu Kosho-, a puree of the zest of the Yuzu, Japanese citrus, & pureed green chiles, which is a good gaistrique with piquancy that is a good contrast to the Aoyagi. Accompanying this elegant Sashimi were thin strands of Daikon or Japanese giant radish, and carrots. These acted as a refreshing counterpoint to the meatiness of the Aoyagi. 2) Took a break from the raw, and ordered Gyoza (ghee yoh zah) which are dumplings filled with finely minced pork, cabbage, onions & flavoured with some garlic, pepper, touch of ginger. The Ponzu (pone zoo) Sauce was a mixture of Sho-yu (soy sauce), lemon juice & touch of Japanese rice vinegar. Again, the Ponzu acted as a gastrique to liven up the porkiness. 3) One of the specials of the day was the Hon Maguro which is Bluefin tuna. I requested to have the fattiest portion which was close to Chu- Toro or medium fatty belly to be chopped up with green onions and put into Temaki or handroll Sushi. Chu- Toro is meaty, beefy, slightly aged so that it smells a little of prime aged beef. The addition of the funky green onions is a great pairing of two strong tastes that when paired together create a satisfying earthy, meaty, blood based minerality for the true carnivore. 4) The last dish was the Tempura Calamari. The batter is super light, thin, & crunchy. The oil that it is fried in is fresh & sweet. Some unethical restaurants use the oil to fry in until it is so full of the previously fried ingredients that the oil starts to taste rancid & old, but not at Sushi Dragon. The last dish was paired with Koshi Hikari beer from Japan that is of medium body, smooth, slightly sweet, with mild hops adding a slight bitterness to balance out the sweeter components. Refreshing yet substantial so that it was ideal drinking in between bites of the Tempura Calamari. Tommy, Sushi Chef extraordinaire, & waitresses, Ayame & Daisy are all so very accommodating & friendly as well as being able to see ahead & give service where it is needed. The clientele at the Sushi bar was also amiable & into friendly repartee. Sushi Dragon is an unpretentious restaurant where the Sushi is excellent, & the atmosphere is mellow & laid back. Great place to unwind & have a nosh while tippling on some Sakè. read more
