My boyfriend and I saw the 5 star reviews and as sushi & matcha lovers, we decided to give it a try. We ordered option "A" for two which included: an appetizer , miso soup, rolls, dessert ... it was so good. We also ordered their oat milk matcha, I am not a big fan of oat milk, but this was really really good. Service Food Drinks and nice ambience read more

Ming-Wa and Ming-Yo offer the kind of hospitality that's honestly rare in a city like LA. They remembered our food allergy after only a couple visits which says a lot. Beyond that, you can genuinely feel how much care and sincerity they put into what they do, it's not just about the food, it's the whole experience. This place is a real gem. I almost don't want to say this but I hope they get so popular that one day we show up on a Friday and can't get in...at least until they finally start taking reservations. What a fantastic spot for fresh, unpretentious, authentic sushi. read more

* I got COMBO 1, the dynamite roll (+$1.50), edamame, and matcha lemonade ($1.00) MATCHA LEMONADE 10/10: The matcha came with the combo for an added dollar and let me tell you... it's so refreshing! It has a good amount of sweetness, good balance of matcha to lemonade, and the portion is generous. For people who like drinks a bit less sweet, you can add water and dilute it a bit. DYNAMITE ROLL 10/10: This was my first time having a dynamite roll and it was delicious! The crab was wonderful, it had a yummy sauce on top, and subtle warmth of the sushi added to the dish. On top of that, I enjoyed how the rice had a subtle crispness to it. EDAMAME 8.5/10: Nice compliment to the dish and amazing that it comes with the combo. My mom typically likes her edamame with garlic and salt but she really enjoyed the simple freshness of this one. Amazing! TORO ROLL 9/10: Really great toro roll. It was 11 dollars and for the price, it was well sized. I typically like my toro rolls a bit warm (preference) so that's my reason for the 9. However, overall, the quality is amazing and the freshness of the fish is great. SPICY TUNA CRISPY RICE 10/10: I genuinely really liked this. Usually, crispy rice is fried however I appreciate how the rice is air fried. This is such a perfect option for people who are a bit more sensitive to how much oil is in their food (like me). The tuna was perfectly spicy, there was a genuine amount of it too, and overall it had such great flavor. SERVICE 10/10: Mino and Miwa, the owner of Sushi N Matcha Sho, are truly the most hospitable people you could ever meet. Not only do they take pride in the quality of their food, they also take pride in their service and the overall experience. It truly is such a pleasure seeing them every time I go. NOTES -- - Street parking ! - No public restroom read more

Sushi was excellent! Very fresh and so yummy! Prices were reasonable and the service was friendly. We saw the 5 star reviews so we wanted to check it out ourselves and left very happy! It says Sushi Sho on the door so be sure to not miss it. We will be back! read more

Sushi N Matcha Sho - Sushi Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

What's special here is the quality of selected ingredients, the consistently perfect prep of those ingredients and then the harmonious assembly of these elements for a result that is always greater than the sum of its parts. For cut rolls, yum yum, tuna, spicy tuna, baked crab all have me trying to communicate my thanks to them as I pat my comfortably full belly on the walk home. But the Nigiri...those items have found a permanent place in my sense memory. For me it's the tuna belly and the wagyu...I won't ruin it with an impossible attempt at description. I suspect as I make my way around the left side of the menu I'll end up with more of such memories. read more

I am constantly on the prowl for the best sushi spot in LA, specifically I love toro, otoro, bluefin, and salmon. Also I am a sucker for a good Philadelphia role, don't judge me. The sushi here has changed the playing field for me, this beats ALL my previous sushi reviews in LA in ALL aspects. The sushi was incredible, every piece melts in your mouth and I truly couldn't pick a favorite. The otoro tasted like it was flown in from Japan earlier that day. I also got a toro roll with cream cheese added, that was the best roll I have ever had in my life. Also got a salmon and avocado roll, that was the closest to authentic Japanese sushi in terms of how it's made I have had, This is a super small place, very easy to miss, it's not on the corner. The inside is cute, and the service is incredible. It seems to be owned by a Japanese couple that runs the entire place. This reminded me so much of my time in the countryside of Japan, and it felt very authentic and like they really cared what they are serving. The prices are reasonable and a place you can visit often without breaking the bank. The sushi prices and roll prices are amazing. Also got matcha here, also ceremonial matcha that was so tasteful. This is by far the best sushi in Hollywood, the best sushi on melrose, and the best sushi in West Hollywood, best sushi in LA. PLEASE, don't skip out on this place. They also do omasake if you want to sit at the bar and are feeling creative. Great date night sushi spot, lowkey, better than nobu on any day of the week. I hate to give away a secret spot with high quality sushi and great prices, but this place and the wonderful owners deserve it. You will not be disappointed. read more

Absolutely loved this place. The sushi was fresh, beautifully prepared, and you could really taste the quality of the ingredients. The ambiance was calm and elegant. It honestly felt like having lunch somewhere in Japan. Service was friendly and attentive. Definitely one of those spots where every detail feels cared for. I'll be coming back for sure! read more

We came to Sushi N Matcha on a whim and are so happy we did! Incredible quality tucked away in a little Melrose corner. It felt like a husband and wife duo and they were both so sweet and attentive as well as neighborly. Our usual spot in the neighborhood has changed owners and we were so disappointed bc with that comes menu and quality changes and so we're super happy to find a place that matches that precious aura. Their sushi was so great that we wanted to come back again same day. Will def be regulars here, please never sacrifice the quality! read more

Sushi N Matcha Sho - Inside of the place - Sushi Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've walked by this little spot a bunch of times on the way to somewhere else. But tonight I finally found my way in, and I'm very glad I did! It's the very definition of a mom 'n pop shop, as it's run by a husband and wife team; he is the sushi chef and she takes care of front-of-house. The inside is tranquil, with low-key, calming art on the walls. (The outside signage is low-key as well.) I should note that the owners are super lovely people who are originally from Tokyo. But of course the food is the thing. I was craving a chirashi bowl, so I ordered their deluxe bowl (I think the non-deluxe version is lunch only, but that was fine by me.) It comes with miso soup (ample and tasty), and then came the chirashi bowl itself, which offered a varied selection of items (including uni and, I think, a piece of toro as well) and was exactly the right size. The fish was fresh, tasty and nicely prepared (the uni was especially yummy), and in the end, I left nothing in my bowl but a few grains of rice and a bit of wasabi. I'd happily order it again, though I think next time I may want to try some new menu items just to explore. Ultimately, this is a great neighborhood sushi restaurant--it's no surprise to see all of the other five-star reviews--and it will be joining my rotation. read more

Sushi N Matcha Sho - Deluxe chirashi bowl. Yum! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A wonderful mom and pop shop that serves delicious sushi! It's an older couple who opened this restaurant a little over 2 years ago and are the sweetest. I'm shocked this place hasn't been reviewed more because everything we had was tasty and fresh. We shared Course B. The appetizer was a crispy skin salmon salad and our sashimi was thick salmon pieces. The dessert was a hojicha affogato. We also got an additional yellowtail hand cut roll. We will definitely come back here. Parking is street parking all over. read more

Probably the best Sushi/Sashimi place in Los Angeles. I know fresh and quality sashimi/sushi and this probably the freshest I've seen in a long while. The owners are super sweet, top notch service and the restaurant interior is so clean and comfortable. Again the quality of the fish was above the norm. read more

I absolutely love this place. The couple who runs is are amazing. It's a real Japanese restaurant. The ambiance isn't anything to write home about, however the sushi is really fresh! Don't be confused by the matcha menu and think sushi is a thrown in... It's not. This sushi is a notch up from a medium like sugerfish. The Omakase is probably one of the best meals for the price in LA. I stand by that for sure. Fish and true wagyu is flown in fresh from Japan. It's a mom and pop just like a little spot in Kyoto that blows your mind and nobody has heard of it. for $120, the omakase is very filling and VERY satisfying. read more

Sushi N Matcha Sho is a remarkable restaurant. The sushi, sashimi and rolls are amongst the best I've had in Los Angeles; the pricing is impressively reasonable. Their single-piece sushi offerings keep the plate cost quite low while maximizing the diner's opportunity for variety. This is a brilliant formula. SNMS is quite informal. I'd recommend a reservation so you can be assured a place at the sushi bar. There is literally nothing to improve here. read more

Melrose's best kept secret! This small restaurant is authentic, delicious, and the waitress is a delight to talk to. The sushi is OUTSTANDING and it's so well priced. My boyfriend and I couldn't believe it the first time we went there. It's clean and sleek inside but also has an intimate feel. Highly recommend!! read more

I only had a pick up order here, but the food portions of quality were excellent for the price. There is a closer sushi place to me that I really enjoy, but I would absolutely come here instead just based on quality and quantity. The person who greeted me and helped with my food was absolutely lovely as well. I only wish they had more pronounced signage. :) read more

Overall, this place is quite charming... The owners are this lovely Japanese couple. And the interior decoration is quite unique, definitely not typical for a Japanese restaurant. The food that we had was good, the rules were tasty... But the overall feeling here is for the size of the rolls. It is a bit pricey. Frankly, the California roll should have been about $7.99. Actually the best thing on the menu was the spam musubi. read more

I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS RESTAURANT! My bf and I were looking craving sushi and found this hidden gem. It has a nice cozy setting with seatings in front of the open kitchen (where we love to be seated at). For the food, they use fresh ingredients and everything was really well seasoned and worked well together. We went here twice and were very pleased with the service here! The chef and his wife have an outgoing character so it was very easy to chat with them while waiting for our food. We usually order the set menu for two and it hits every time (with a good price too)! The wait time for the food usually takes awhile since there's only one chef doing all the prep, but it would definitely be perfect if you bring someone to chat with ;) Will definitely visit again. read more
