    Sashimi Combo Deluxe on a boat  Samurai Baked Roll, & LAFC Specialty Roll.
    Fredy R.

    Been wanting to come since i live nearby. Very convenient if you want sushi and/or last minute and don't want to make a drive to your go-to. Love that it's family oriented. They are all very helpful and happy to see you there! The sushi & sashimi tasted fresh. Compared to other mom & pop huts i've gone to for lunches, this one is solid. No alcohol since there are schools in the area. Place is small but feels spacious. Honestly feels cool to have a sushi spot in the hood. Be humble! Support your locals

    So good

    The food is so good and they are nice and welcoming definitely coming again l love this place so much 10/10

    Amazing food and service!! We loved everthing we ordered but the vegetable tempura woww!!

    Salmon skin roll

    My daughter and I stopped by because she wanted sushi. Her favorite fish is salmon. I saw they had good reviews on Google. We got the deluxe combo, rainbow roll, and salmon skin roll. I heard they had GOOD portions and the reviews were right. The salmon peices are large. The tekka maki (tuna) was also really big. The salmon skin roll was probably the biggest hand roll I've ever had. Although I like my salmon skin roll more crunchy and this wasn't very crunchy, I still enjoyed it very much. The fried ice cream was good although it had a little more breading than I would have liked. The service was really good. Johan was really attentive and took really good care of us. The dynamite sauce has a kick to it and the owner was nice enough to share she adds habanero to add the heat. This is a great family run restaurant. I would definitely stop by again. Support small business!

    Never seen a sushi place with 5 stars on both Google and Yelp. Totally delivered and I now understand. Yes, it's deep in LA, but to find a gem like this that would excel in OC or big cities on Compton Blvd.. Amazing. Service was on point, Frank was engaging and made sure we had the best experience. Diamond in the rough doesn't give it justice..

    This place is a gem! I went there about 2 weeks ago and I was surprised how good the sushi was and service. It's a family owned place in an unusual location but it was amazing. I was skeptical at first because I usually go for sushi to lLittle Tokyo but this place is near by my boyfriend's house and he had checked it out a week prior and told me it was good. The ambiance was great and the family was very attentive. A must try the avocado boom appetizer soooo good! If you are in the area please give this place a try!

    Came in after loving a DoorDash order that I did a few weeks ago. So so good, fresh sushi and great price. The Tuna and Salmon are so soft, melt in your mouth. Parking is tough at night but street parking is available near.

    A Hidden Gem with Heart and Flavor! Just pulled up to Traviesushi for the second time and man... this spot does not disappoint. Their menu is massive, so I decided to explore a bit and ordered the "Ceromiedo" roll -- fire. Also got a tekka hand roll and a crispy California roll for the kids. It was their first intro to sushi, and it was a hit! They're officially on the sushi train now. My oldest went with the nabeyaki udon -- huge portion and packed with flavor. She couldn't finish it, but the staff was super sweet and packed it up for us with care. For dessert? Tempura ice cream. I don't even gotta say much... just trust -- it was delicious. But the real standout wasn't just the food -- it was the heart behind it. The owner personally came over to check on us, and we had one of those rare, genuine conversations you don't expect when you're out to eat. He shared how he opened this place for the community -- a community he's lived in for many years and still calls home. He didn't just want to serve sushi, he wanted to bring something meaningful to the neighborhood. Something created with love, for the people around him. That kind of purpose? You can feel it in the energy. You can taste it in the food. You see it in how the staff treats you like family. Traviesushi isn't just a spot to grab sushi -- it's a place built with intention, heart, and a whole lot of love for the community. If you're anywhere near Watts, this is the kind of local gem that deserves to be supported and celebrated. Spots like this should be packed -- not just because the food is good, but because the mission behind it is even better. Un Tesoro Escondido con Sazón y Corazón Esta fue mi segunda visita a Traviesushi y la neta... este lugar no falla. Tienen un menú enorme, así que me animé a probar el rollo "Ceromiedo" -- una chulada. También pedí un hand roll de tekka y un rollo California crujiente para los niños. Era su primera vez probando sushi... ¡y les encantó! Ya se subieron al tren del sushi sin miedo. Mi hija mayor pidió el nabeyaki udon -- viene con una porción generosa y un sabor riquísimo. No pudo terminarlo ahí mismo, pero el personal fue súper amable y nos lo empacaron con todo el cuidado. ¿Y de postre? Helado tempura. No hay mucho que decir más que... una delicia total. Pero lo que realmente se me quedó grabado no fue solo la comida -- fue el corazón detrás de todo esto. El dueño vino personalmente a saludarnos y acabamos teniendo una de esas pláticas sinceras que no te esperas cuando vas a comer. Nos contó cómo y por qué abrió este lugar: por la comunidad. Lleva muchos años viviendo aquí y este sigue siendo su hogar. No quería solo vender sushi -- quería regalarle algo bonito y con amor a su gente. Ese tipo de propósito se siente en el ambiente, se saborea en cada bocado, y se nota en cómo todo el personal te trata como si fueras de la familia. Traviesushi no es solo un lugar para comer sushi -- es un espacio hecho con intención, cariño y muchísimo amor por la comunidad. Si estás por Watts o cerca, este es el tipo de lugar que merece todo el apoyo. Lugares así deberían estar llenos todos los días -- no solo por lo rico que está, sino por lo bonito que representa.

    I had a great experience here! I always order online but today was the first time I dined in. The service was amazing, you can really tell it's a family-owned spot because they make you feel so welcome from the moment you walk in. Everyone was kind, attentive, and accommodating to anything I asked for. The sushi was 10 out of 10, very fresh, beautifully prepared, and honestly the best I've had in the area. It's the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy your food, and feel genuinely appreciated as a customer. If you love great sushi and friendly service, this is definitely the place to go. I'll 100% be coming back soon!

    I got the seafood udon and my husband got the salmon California roll.

    Came here for a quick quick bite to eat with my husband and we enjoyed a very delicious meal. He got the salmon California rolls and I got the seafood udon. Miguel was very kind and helpful. Service was very prompt. Customer service was amazing. The Broth is one of the best ones that I've ever tasted in the seafood soup literally gave me life. It was so delicious and healthy. One bowl is enough for three servings for me so I definitely took the rest to go, Whenever I'm hungry and in the area I will definitely be stopping by to try some more amazing food and desserts. I'm glad that I saw this on Instagram.

    This place was really good, it won't disappoint. Everything made immaculate. Service was great, and cordial on time. But most definitely had a lot of flavor, nothing really negative to say about the place

One of the best sushi spots I've had a in a while actually. We didn't really do any appetizers and went straight in for the fish. Started off with a couple of hand rolls, we did the crab hand roll and O toro hand roll. Crab hand roll wasn't as impressive, I've had better to be honest. I didn't let that experience ruin it for me because the toro hand roll was delicious. I think they add a piece of mint and it complimented the hand roll. Very crunchy nori wrapper and good rice to fish ratio. For our sushi we started with chu toro tuna, salmon belly, and halibut. Super fresh melt in your mouth quality. Halibut was interesting with the truffle, first time definitely won't be the last. We ended it with red snapper and black snapper. Absolutely amazing, I think the black snapper or the red snapper was slightly charred. It was so good. To say the least, this restaurant was worth it!

Nice of the chef to switch out roe for halibut for me on my omakase. However, probably the worst omakase I've ever had. No creativity, nothing felt premium, chewy fish, flavors didn't mesh, and half of it was salty. The miso soup wasn't scorching, which i appreciated at first but that meant the last few sips were fairly room temp. The real crab handroll was good. If the price point was $35 sushi set I'd give 5/5 but this is supposed to be premium omakase. I've been to other Sushi Enya locations and had good experiences, so this was very disappointing. Stick to the rolls and nigiri.

While the fish quality here is great, you will get more bites that seem a lot more experimental with flavors and garnishes. I didn't like every single bite but I expected that. A lot more focus on creative cocktails and drink pairings instead of just sake or wine. This is a great place to try Japanese whiskey, they even have little lockers where regular patrons can store their expensive bottles they've bought for when they return, and you are welcome to grab an additional drink and chill in the space afterwards if you'd like. The chefs here were a lot more personable and fun with more of a bar vibe than a traditional omakase. Service was great, dedicated bartender was great, and though it's not the best sushi I've ever tasted, I would still bring someone back here for a unique experience.

    I really enjoyed this sushi spot. Unlike many sushi restaurants that offer combo plates, omakase,…read moreor sushi specials, this place is entirely à la carte, so you build your meal piece by piece. While that can add up quickly, the quality made it worth it for me. Every sushi item we ordered was incredibly fresh and tasted great. The fish was clean, flavorful, and clearly high quality. Nothing felt like an afterthought, and I was happy with everything we tried. Another plus is that they validate 2 hour parking in the same plaza, which made the visit much more convenient. My only minor complaint is that the pace of service was extremely fast. The sushi came out so quickly that I felt a little rushed through the meal. It's certainly better than waiting forever for food, but I would have appreciated a bit more time to relax and enjoy each round before the next dishes arrived. Overall, the food was excellent and I'd gladly return. If you're looking for fresh, high-quality sushi and don't mind ordering everything à la carte, this place is definitely worth a visit.
