    Philadelphia roll
    Ryan M.

    Everything was just mediocre -- definitely a bit disappointed considering the reviews and reputation. We got a variety of things -- oysters, salmon nigiri, tuna nigiri, soft shell crab, rolls, and salmon sashimi -- nothing really stood out to me as very good. The fish was ok, not some of the better fish I've had. The best roll we had was the Philadelphia roll, which is very disappointing to say the last. The oysters were straight up bad, and the soft shell crab was the best thing we had all night. Our server seemed very overwhelmed and forgetful as well. We will definitely not be returning

    Salmon with Truffle Oil
    Celeste H.

    A friend recommended this place and it's prob the best sushi place I've been to! Everything is extremely fresh and has great flavor. We got the salmon sashimi with truffle oil, yuzu roll and baked avocado/crab roll. Everyone was very attentive and ensured we had enough water. The plaza is a bit tiny so I recommend you find street parking! Right across the street from the Trader Joe's.

    I thought the food was just ok. It was good but did not wow me that I would crave any of the rolls. Don't get me wrong the fish was fresh but it was just ok. The rolls fell apart pretty quickly. The service was friendly but slow. It's a pretty small restaurant so the tables are very close together so it does get loud if you're trying to have a conversation The parking lot is small so searching for street parking is not the easiest in this neighborhood.

    Such a cute and cozy place. I was invited to go here with a friend of mine and she has been going for some time and I finally was able to join her. The place is clean and minimal in design. The chefs are very nice and the food is very fresh and tasty. The servers are attentive and helpful. We were there on a Monday night and it wasn't as busy but I can imagine it being full quickly as the space is limited. It's worth the try if you love sushi. I will be back again.

    Yuzu is always a hit. The Japanese A5 wagyu beef with truffle salt is melt in your mouth good. It's always super busy but the waiters are attentive. It's a good casual date night spot.

    We were surprised to see a line of people waiting for their doors to open on a Saturday night. And felt lucky to get a parking spot in their small lot! Soon after we were seated, most of the tables & the sushi bar were filled. They had an impressive selection of fresh fish for that day. Their huge menu was hard to choose from, because everything sounded so good. We loved everything we got: Edamame w/white truffle Yellowtail sashimi w/cilantro & crispy garlic Japanese Uni sushi Spicy Tuna on crispy rice Salmon toast Yuzu roll Service was excellent & all their tables were filled by the time we left. Highly recommend!

    One of my favorite sushi spots in the valley! Always super fresh food. The Yuzu roll came highly recommended so me and my date both got it and we ate every piece. I've never had a bad dish at Yuzu so I usually get some kind of roll and then a side of two-piece sushi. This time we also got the crispy rice This place has fair pricing and is in a great location, street parking as well. The staff is so kind and gave us a heating lamp since we sat outside. I'll be back soon!

    This place is the best little local sushi spot Evvvverrrr!!! The location is great , parking ? Not so much. But I manage each time I go, and don't mind. The restaurant is not that big , but with RSVPs we have never had any problems getting a table. The staff is very friendly and make you feel welcome . And now the best part ! The FOOD !!! Ah maz ing !!!! This place never disappoints. Always fresh , and always delicious. They have a fantastic variety of dishes, few of my favorites are the Asian roll, the Chilean Seabass hand roll, albacore sashimi with crispy rice , salmon carpaccio, scallop crudo , you know what ? Everything is amazing!!!! You can't go wrong. If you've never been here , definitely go and try it at least once . Then you will understand why I always see at least 10 people I know each time I go here. It's a fun atmosphere, good service, and great food ! Thank me later .

    This place is good! All that we ordered was so yummy! Forgot the names mostly sushi and oysters and rolls! First time here we tried their other restaurant last time. I think same menu but different name.

    Service was excellent and everything we ordered was delicious. I especially enjoyed the crispy rice tuna l just wish their portions were a tad bit bigger.

    When we arrived, the line was out the door, which made me feel like we were really in for a treat. The fish and ingredients tasted very fresh--which is honestly the baseline for good sushi in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, the dining experience didn't quite meet expectations. The space felt cramped, and the service was subpar. It was nice to try, but with so many excellent sushi spots nearby, I'd prefer to spend this price point somewhere with better service and a more comfortable atmosphere. I heard Kabosu next door shares the same owners and menu, so I might give that a try one day--but I don't think I'd return to Sushi Yuzu.

    My all time faveeeee spot. The yellowtail sashimi with crispy garlic w cilantro, the albacore sashimi with crispy onion, the salmon sashimi with truffle oil and the lemon roll are 10/10 amazing. Must try!! They literally never disappoint and I'm always craving this spot it's actually an issue!

    Food is great. Service is a bit slow. Very packed and hard to get a reservation on any day. Must Call before you go to avoid wait times. Super small space but the sushi is amazing.

    Welcome condiments.

    I used to come here at least once a week. Now the service is terrible, and the fish tastes like sink water. Wouldn't recommend

It all worked so well together. I also got the Hama Chili nigiri and it was super different, in a good way. The red powder was something different I haven't tasted before so I can't describe it. The fish was buttery soft. So fresh and flavorful. And the Baby Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice Cake was easily one of the best crispy rice dishes I've had. The ratio of spicy tuna to crispy rice was perfect and the portions were actually good too, which a lot of places mess up. Every bite was perfect. Everything tasted really fresh and looked pretty too. I want to come back with my sisters and see what they think

We ate here last night, and shortly after I started vomiting and dealing with diarrhea throughout the entire night. It was one of the worst reactions I've had after eating out. What's even more frustrating is that I tried calling the restaurant afterward to notify them and discuss the situation, but I couldn't get ahold of anyone even after leaving a voicemail. I understand things can happen, but food safety should be taken seriously, and the lack of response afterward made the situation even worse. Very disappointed after what had previously been good experiences here.

Making a reservation was very easy, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted right away and seated promptly. The ambiance was warm and inviting. The restaurant is a bit dimly lit, but it really adds to the cozy and upscale atmosphere. One thing I immediately noticed was how clean all of the grills were. We chose the AYCE option (around $55 per person), and the pricing for kids was very reasonable. Our 5-year-old was charged a reduced rate, while our 3-year-old ate free, which was a nice bonus for families. The selection of meats was excellent, with plenty of options to choose from. They do have a 90-minute dining limit and a surcharge for excessive leftovers, but that wasn't an issue for us because everything was delicious. The appetizer selection was surprisingly large. We enjoyed the beef fried rice, noodles, a sushi roll, crispy tofu, chicken karaage, and shiitake mushrooms. The crispy tofu turned out to be spicier than we expected, so just keep that in mind if ordering for kids. However, spice lovers will probably enjoy it! The chicken karaage was a huge hit with the kids, especially with the spicy mayo on the side. The shiitake mushrooms were also incredibly flavorful and well-seasoned. We also ordered crispy rice spicy tuna, we loved it too! What really stood out was the service. Every server we encountered was kind, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Instead of simply dropping off food and walking away, they took time to check in, ask how we were doing, and connect with us. That personal touch made the experience feel special. We only ordered water since we had already had plenty of drinks earlier in the day, but they offer a variety of beverages as well. For dessert, we tried the mochi ice cream special--two for $5--which was a fantastic deal. In San Diego, it's common to pay around $5 for just one mochi ice cream, so we were pleasantly surprised. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and are so happy we chose Oku-Niku for my birthday celebration. Great food, excellent service, a family-friendly atmosphere, and a memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back!

Get the Yuzu Chousu ( def misspelled it) but the spicy wasabi yuzu paste 5/5 Yum Delicious cuts and variety for a nice price. Excellent service, If you're tempted to try but not committing to the din price tags try them for the lunch special. Parking may be tricky as the area is typically busy but we usually find street parking nearby, a nice walk is good after a AYCE. PSA/FYI: for Me -- "HOT" is not literal for spice/temp but for a Like/loveable item!
