“This is a hidden gem in the valley. From the outside I did not expect the interior to look so nice and Japanese style.

The sushi omakase was so tasty with different cuts of fish like toro, salmon belly and more. Each one had garnishes like chili oil, yuzu, fresh wasabi, etc. The presentation is stunning. The other items we ordered were also so fresh and tasty like the Toro toast, negitoro mini bowl, and shishito peppers.

Fresh and delicious food here !“

“Fast and courteous service! Good selection of food!“

“I'm always looking for a new sushi spots in the valley. This looks like a staple and his highly rated. I haven't got a chance to explore everything fully, but they're tuna tataki is amazing, so is their baked salmon and their tuna on crispy rice. It's kind of hard to get a seat if you don't make a reservation, and that's the only thing I don't love, but completely understand.“

“Everything was amazing from the service to the food and sushi and the environment is unassuming and comfortable. Top notch!“

“I really love this place! Cocktails menu is amazing, the Lychee Mojito 10/10, always a must for me.
Place was packed, of course it was a Friday night and the Lakers were playing, I recommend making s reservation.
Despite how busy the place was, out server David took care of us, great service and delicious food!“

“Great service and food💗 There are many alcohol menus and food items that other restaurants do not have, and the restaurant is not too big, so you can enjoy a relaxing, calm and stylish time. There is plenty of space for parking, and I would definitely go back‼︎“

“Must get sushi, but don’t forget the corn tempura and momotaro tomato (seasonal). Awesome sake selection too.“

“We ordered the Volcano Roll, the Shrimp Tempura Crunch, and the Spicy Tuna Tempura. We didn’t care for the Spicy Tuna Tempura roll, and when we let our waitress know, she was very understanding and took it off the bill. The service overall was great. The restaurant is small but cute, and we would definitely return.“

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!“

“it’s my first time at roll roll sushi and I was offered a free miso soup as soon as I walked in I ordered the salmon lover roll and the baked scallop roll and both were delicious. I had my dog with me so we sat outside under cute umbrellas they have out. I’m so happy I decided to try this place out if you’re in the valley you need to give it a try!“

“Yummmmmmy!!!! Great sushi and friendly staff. It’s a little pricey but great quality so it’s worth it =}“

“5 stars isn’t enough for Daichan. The food was incredible and the service was phenomenal — everyone was so sweet and welcoming.

We loved the sake sampler since it was a great way to try multiple bottles. My wife’s Daimyo Chirashi was packed with an amazing variety of fresh fish and flavor, while my kalbi beef was perfectly cooked with the perfect sweet heat.

The garlic squid was easily our favorite dish, and the mochi with dorayaki was the perfect dessert combo to finish the meal.

100/10 experience — can’t wait to come back!“

“Fresh, healthy food w generous portions. I had the hana salad w chicken and the iced matcha cloud latte. The salad was fresh and their sauce/condiment bar made it extra tasty. The matcha was super yummy, on par or better with any specialty coffee/tea place. The Okinawa sugar made it elevated, though I ordered it less sweet. Will def be back!“

“Amazing fresh old school sushi ❤️❤️❤️❤️. The owner is so friendly and knowledgeable and it’s now my happy place!“

“Everything is delicious, made with love❤️ Clean, elegant, and delicious🤩😋 Friendly, helpful staff🌹“

“Masa-san serves chef's choice, and the food is fresh and delicious. Eating here is an extremely delightful experience. The sweet shrimp with eggs is one of my favorites. Always finish your meal with at least 1 (maybe 2 or ...) of his blue crab rolls. The crab is carefully hand-pulled, the rice is warm, and the seaweed is crisp. You won't find that combination of quality and easy dining experience anywhere else in the Valley. Please try it!“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“Hole in the wall teriyaki place. You order at the counter, you pick up your food, you clean up your own table after eating. Easy free parking lot or street parking. They have a lunch special for $11.95 that includes chicken and rice with salad. They also have specials A, B, C and D that are around the $15 to $20 price range. I had the special C that had white rice, a big piece of chicken katsu, two pieces of chicken teriyaki, salad, two small onion rings and two dumplings for about $15.95. Not a bad value. You get a teriyaki sauce and hot sauce on the side. Their teriyaki sauce is very good here! The serving is very generous. I was not about to finish it in one sitting.“

“I rarely leave comments. I visited once before and felt the quality of the pork wasn't quite up to par. Today, however, we ordered the Spicy Miso and a Chicken Ramen—and honestly, they were absolutely delicious. From the quality of the meat to the flavor of the broth, this visit certainly didn't disappoint. I'll definitely be back!“

“If there’s one thing I love, it’s teriyaki plus. This restaurant is so inconspicuous and a sleeper hit of the area. It’s charming and the food is well priced and so flavorful. We got the katsu bowl, the gyoza and chicken kabobs. All perfect. I can’t quite explain why this place is so cute and charming but as soon as you step inside you can feel that you’re walking in to your new favorite restaurant.“

“Stumbled in for lunch not knowing what to expect and was immediately impressed. A lovely scent of incense and a warm, welcoming greeting set the tone right away. The ambience and decor were on point, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. The food was excellent—creative, beautifully presented, and the flavors absolutely hit. Highly recommend, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.“

“Flavorful and delicious! A hidden gem for Japanese cuisine in the valley. We all enjoyed the takoyaki. The Futaba (tonkatsu) ramen and (especially) the black garlic tonkatsu ramen are so good! Someone also had the chicken katsu curry and would recommend it. Great service and also very dog friendly on the patio.“

“Just wanted to show some love to this restaurant I just finished watching a YouTube video from DuB family and it made me cry because the owner was so sweet and kind to the guy making videos. I pray that have more people come to their restaurant in the future. I Plan on going in a few months for my vacation week it’s an hour and 30 mins from me but I will make my way to the restaurant.“

“Really good food fresh and the ramen is soooooo yummy“

“One of my favorite places for bento boxes! Everything is so fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and you can tell they care about their customers.

Please be patient, sometimes they get a little busy but always worth the wait! I will definitely keep coming back.“

“I am extremely loyal to our local sushi restaurant gems all along Ventura blvd and have my staples saying that none compare to this most amazing sushi spot we've discovered and many have already known about and it is Sushi Tomoki! Wow! Paradise for sushi lovers and I must say from the moment you enter this most authentic of joints it takes your heart and you fall in love with the chefs, the ladies and gentleman serving you and guiding you along the way is next level. We absolutely have found our local spot for good. Magic!“

“The food is great and priced very well. I would say that the lunch special is very worth it and if you are trying the restaurant for the first time the lunch specials are the way to go to get a taste of it. Fish quality is also good for the price“

“Love Jo&Go Sushi. They saved me when we first moved to LA and while the house was being remodeled.

4 years later... it's still as good as first discovered. It's a neighborhood gem inside the Korean Greenland Mrkt, which btw, is also awesome.

Must try is the salmon bowl, the salmon slices are so tender and buttery... they give you a crazy amount of salmon over the rice and seriously it's enough to have a 2nd meal! One note about the bowl... I'm not a fan of drenching really good cooked rice with sauce, so I always order without the sauce. The rice is not sushi rice which makes it even more delicious... the rice is always perfectly cooked. You get a miso soup and a cute little container of pickled radish (delish). I would love to know where they source the fish... it's like being in Japan, it's so fresh.

I'll be catering with them soon and happy to update the review post order.

The kind woman who takes the order is so sweet and cute, always smiling...says hi and bye all the time.

If you're in the area, definitely give it a try for takeaway.“

“The menu is unique and named creatively, which I found charming. The food was well-made, and made in ample time. The service was amazing and the cashier walked me through the process, being very nice the whole time. The roll I ordered and the tea were delicious, and I'd love to come by again soon.“

“Been coming here for decades still my favorite.“

“Brothers Sushi is a must. Make a reservation and you can’t go wrong with anything you order.“

“This is a rare gem of a sushi restaurant in the West Hills, Woodland Hills, Calabassas, Canoga Park area. Living in West Hills we have tried most of the sushi restaurants in this area, and this by far is our favorite.

The fish is always super fresh. The portions are generous and the service is great. The pork ramen is superb and all of their rolls and sushi and sashimi are great.

Do yourself a favor. Take the 12 minute ride out of your typical haunts and reward yourself with some of the best sushi this side of the valley.“

“Excelente...muy buena atención y la comida muy buena, lo recomiendo...“

“Hadasa (sorry if I spelled it wrong) made our first impression wonderful she was patient during the rush and went over the menu with us
We will definitely come back if there’s service like that ! We loved the Birria ramen! Thank you“

“Who thought that classic American fare and Japanese cuisine could mesh so well??!!“

“Reall bomb sushi rolls were the yellowtail and spicy tuna roll. Wow. Our waiters suggestions didn't disappoint and only impressed us with the high quality of flavor from this restaurant. Would go here again and ambience is very romantic“

“I had an amazing experience at Beto’s Tepanyaki! The service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and fast. The chefs are truly skilled.

I ordered the New York Steak and Chicken Bowl, cooked medium-rare, and it was absolutely delicious! The steak was tender and juicy, while the chicken was flavorful and perfectly grilled. The portion size was generous, and every bite was packed with amazing flavor.

If you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and a fun dining experience, Beto’s Tepanyaki is the place to go. Highly recommend!“

“This chain is amazing! Food is always super fresh and serving is good size there are a lot of options especially great for lunch those who want to eat light or be full. If you are vegan or pescatarian this place is great for you too We have options for everybody.“

“The food and service was excellent.“

“Really good spot when you want sushi and ramen without having to pick one or the other. The menu has a lot of solid options, so it works well if one person wants ramen, someone else wants rolls, and everyone wants to share a few small plates. The place has a cozy feel, and it’s nice for a casual dinner without feeling too loud or rushed. I like that there’s enough variety to come back and try something different each time. Good food, good vibe, and definitely a solid Encino stop on Ventura.“

“Walked into the mall wanting to eat. Suki Hana caught my eye and I was helped by an employee named Shantell. She gave me recommendations on what to get and was absolutely helpful. The food was great, and their work area was clean. Shantell helped me out a lot and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the great service & food!“

“I was really indecisive about what I wanted to eat tonight. This is my first time trying this place and let me tell you, it’s the best hibachi I’ve had tbh. My regular spot is usually in Hollywood but definitely switching to this place. Everything cooked well and seasoned just right.“

“Had a wonderful meal. The chef was awesome and interactive“

“Wonderful experience with Chef Take! Truly a unique experience in the historical method and style chef prepares his experience.“

“I have passed this place many times on my way home and wanted to try it. Last night I finally ordered through UberEats for the first time, and let me tell you, I was VERY impressed by how everything was packaged with care to prevent broth for my ramen spilling and from my sushi being crushed. I ordered the Spicy Seafood ramen bowl which was delicious! And I got a California roll because of its reasonable price and being a classic. Everything was very good and well kept to ensure a positive first experience. The portions are perfect for if you're very hungry and want to indluge or if you just need a little pick-me-up and want to have leftovers for later. I will definitely be giving Kita my business regularly. 😋“

“Excellent food 🥘! Always hot and fresh. A treat every time.“

“The best yellow tail Nelly sushi ever“

“This place is the Go-To spot for sushi.. always fresh and delicious 😋“
