Sushi Bars near Porter Ranch

“Did the teppan table for my son's birthday and overall, it was a good experience. Our chef was decent but could have been a little more engaging. He did a good job and cooked the food well and everyone was happy with the flavors and their meals.“

“If you like ceviche and you like sushi, this is the place for you! The aguachile role was a great fusion of mariscos and sushi. This roll is very acidic if you like those flavors. The salmon delight role was my favorite, it was more classic type sushi role. The el gallo roll was smoky and earthy and definitely packed a punch with flavors. The food was brought out to our table in a timely manner and the service was pretty great. Not to mention the restaurant was playing music and made the dining experience more enjoyable. Lastly, the margaritas we ordered were pretty strong and were 2 for 1 on happy hour!! I would definitely recommend this place if you like ceviche and sushi.“

“The Best Restaurant Ever.... Michael C. hands down is the best waiter one could ask for. Management is the best, my family and I felt so welcomed. We can't wait to visit again. By the way, that was my first time ever having Sushi Roll, (sweet & spicy crab), roll. And God be with me on the butter cake, the beeeeest eveeeer. Okay, the Brussel Sprout Chips, Tempura Cauliflower, and Shrimp Fried Rice... I mean I can't stop thinking about my meal.....‍... The Ambiance, the best .... That's everything in a nutshell They deserve a 10 Reshelle & Rico“

“I ventured with my wife for a very early Valentine's dinner recently. This sushi speak easy has been on my to do list for a long time and I'm pleased we were able to visit this location. The entire staff was amazing, you're definitely here to drop some bills but have a great time. You immediately feel welcomed in this cozy setting , there were only 6 of us for our seating and the staff knew all our names and the reason why we decided to spend the night for dinner to treat ourselves for omakase. We were invited to partake in some pre-dinner cocktails and canapes. The reservations will note this is optional. I strongly suggest attending this and mingling with the staff and your guests because you're going to spend probably at least 2 hours with these folks experiencing top quality sushi. I really enjoyed their spin on omakase and sushi. Of course you're getting really high quality ingredients here but the intentionality in every bite, the pacing of the night, and at least during our visit the banter between everyone made this experience extremely memorable. The flow of food is so well thought out and the chefs work as a team to tee up each bite. You can see them set up nigiri, 2-3 rounds ahead, and watching the process is absolutely mesmerizing. Each bite is well explained along with the ingredients, origin and processes of how each nigiri is built. The drinks options are also very appetizing they have options for whiskey flights, sake flights and can craft up some delicious cocktails and non alcoholic options. They also are very considerate of any dietary constraints. Overall, I was extremely pleased with my experience and would come back for a future special occasion.“

“Probably my favorite place to eat. The food is delicious, creative, and beautiful to look at. The staff are professional and friendly. I've been following the chef for close to twenty years now, from Chiba to Asanebo to his own restaurant, and he's destined to become a name in the sushi business. Excellent fish. Great taste. Outstanding menu, both in terms of selection and preparation. A must-visit restaurant for the sushi lover who wants to see some new ideas.“

“This is a great sushi spot ! I always go here for lunch at work. The best part is that most rolls are bogo 50% off. They are super helpful with great service. The ambiance is meh and it's kind of small but I'm really there for the food cause it's bomb !“

“Tried this for the first time, it was so so good. Love the amount of options they offer and the person who helped us was very friendly, talkative, and patient. He also made sure to let us know about the student discount which I appreciated.“

“I don't know how I've never been here before but it wasn't just dinner, it was an experience. There is much to be said about an elevated staff that is perfectly poised in how to treat their guests and create an "experience ". That is just what they did, from the hostess, to the server, to the sommelier. And I haven't even started talking about the food!! The ambiance is beautiful, the food was spectacular and fresh, we had the Omakase. It was served with a sparking rosé that was just wonderful! The whole experience was a 10 and I can't wait to go back! Unbelievable hidden gem!“

“Chef is super funny and chatty. He loves explaining details about the food. Strongly recommend arriving on time, be early rather than be late. Sushi pieces were excellent. Appetizer to start was a very interesting mix of items.Dining experience felt very intimate. Only our group and another group were there. Worth the cost. Do not let the external location fool you, it is a lovely experience, and the food is excellent.“

“Dope lil spot tucked away in Sherman Oaks. Quality sushi, great service. Fun tunes too. Going to be a go to spot. Tonight had the Oh My Goodness Roll and the I Love Salmon Roll. Who's set the playlist here? They deserve some recognition.“

“Great food! Great service! Very welcoming atmosphere.I had the Giant Scallop Sashimi followed up with their Topanga Roll. The scallop was wonderfully prepared and a joy to look at as much as it was a joy to eat.My Topanga roll was fantastic!Washed this all down with an ice cold Asahi and a hot saki.Will definitely return to try some more items off the menu... Im thinking curry... next time?We will be back!“

“We came here on a whim, after finding The Daily Outpost mysteriously closed on a Friday evening. Umigame is so good! Everything, from the poke bowl, salmon teriyaki, brussels sprouts, and edamame, were perfect! High quality food beautifully prepared. Very good service also. We will definitely be back.“

“First time there for us and it was really delicious. We had the spicy edamame, yellow tail collar, halibut nagiri and Suban Ramen.Everything was delicious, yellowtail collar was huge and grilled not deep fried, halibut was very fresh and my ramen was also tasty!!It is our "go to" sushi place now!“

“I was looking for a new sushi spot (you can tell when old favorites start going through the motions) and The Big Fish is right on the money. We had the Caterpillar roll, crunch roll, and baked salmon roll, all very good. The baked salmon roll was actually one of the best I've ever had - perfect temperature. Interior of the restaurant has a nice vibe, and friendly folks work there. Pricewise this might be slightly higher (for some of the rolls) than other places, but you can taste the difference. This is in a part of town I hadn't been to in years and the location is in a "blink and you'll miss it" strip mall at Riverside and Coldwater Canyon...so thanks to Yelp's new restaurant email and all of the other reviews: this is a sushi place worth visiting!“

“The sushi at Otto sushi was awesome! We always order Orange Volcano it's so tasty and the presentation with fire always looks beautiful! The staff always friendly and attentive. I can't wait to come back and try Orange Volcano one more time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“

“Been coming here since I moved to LA in 2012 and to this day remains the best sushi I've ever had in my life. The service is impeccable and speedy. The ambiance is quaint and makes it feel like high end dining but with reasonable prices. Always recommend to people looking for a good sushi spot!“

“There are a lot of restaurants with a unique backdrop but perhaps none quite like Go's Mart. Generally speaking would not expect a high end omakase in a nondescript and older strip mall but the adventure continues as then enter into an actual small market and walk all the way to the back where the the sushi is actually set up. This has to be one of the most unique locations as it feels more like a pop-up than established location. The service is minimalist but efficient. The chef is friendly if not talkative and will provide prompt instructions. There is a rather pricey bottle of shoyu (aka soy sauce) placed in front of you but was never utilized (some chefs do not mind if you use it but others are more particular almost as if a test). The chef tends to use gold flakes as his trademark but is for aesthetics vs taste. Highlights include the seared dishes as well as the uni and one of the last places which will offer high quality sweet shrimp and then ask if you would like to serve the head as part of a soup or fried like a cracker. Overall, a solid if not spectacular choice for omakase in perhaps one of the most hidden and off the beaten path spots.“

“Eaten here a few times now and really like it. The fish is really fresh, better than other poke places I've been to and so far I've always found the portions to be generous. The staff has always been super friendly too. It's a bit expensive but good poke always is so I think it's totally worth it. Definitely worth checking out!“

“Today got to check out Yogis Grill. Looked good when I was browsing places to eat so I gave them a shot. Did not disappoint. I ordered the garlic butter noodles with beef and rice and also a half order of their crunch roll. The noodles were tasty, rice was nice and sticky, and the beef was fantastic, great teriyaki flavor, I did get a side of their spicy teriyaki sauce and that made it even better. The roll was good, if you need a quick sushi fix, definitely did that. Service was great, cashier was friendly. Inside was nice where I ate, clean with music playing, seems like a pretty popular spot for lunch from what I seen. Would definitely go back. I want to try the yakisoba noodles next time.“

“Went here for Sunday lunch. Service and food were great. The inside is pretty small but clean and bright. Most people were doing take out so seating is probably fine even during busy times. We got both Thai and sushi entrees and they did not disappoint. Will definitely be back.“

“Yummy is all I have to say about Izakaya K! Everything is SO fresh and delicious! My husband and I come here often for drinks & amazing dinner, it never disappoints! My favorite is their salmon, it is fresh and almost melts in your mouth.The service is friendly and server is always very attentive. They do not do dine in during lunch and a reservation is required for dinner. But it is definitely worth it!“

“I love the new outside setup the vibes are amazing ! Best sushi i had in a while, great place :)Parking: A good number of spotsKid-friendliness: They are great with kids and patienceWheelchair accessibility: Good for outside not too much room inside“

“Chicken katsu was great, big portion, tender chicken, came with a pretty and delicious salad and the curry was also very good. It was totally worth the price. Takoyaki was one of the best I've eaten. The portion is also generous and there were definitely big chunks of Tako inside the balls. Presentation was very pretty too. However my lemon roll was not as good as the other dishes. The spicy tuna was overly spicy and it took away the flavor of the entire dish. The size surprised me positively though, it was much bigger than rolls in other places. The fish was fresh and the proportion with rice was good too. I would definitely come back.“

“I had gone to aguachilles sushi and had the miso it tasted like tap water super disgusting. Kept wanting to try this place. Really glad I did my boys love the miso and the food is delicious! Definitely coming back! You have to try the whole menu so good! Thank you for treating my babies so well!“

“Super delicious Omakase experience! I'd definitely like to go back on a week night for a few rolls. We did a double date here the other night and there was a mixup with our order and we waited a long time but they made it right. I definitely recommend the Omakase experience! My favorite was the nigiri and sashimi. Super fresh and all the details on top of the fish were delicious. Creamy caviar at one point ! This place is in a busy area, so parking is hard, get there early! I appreciate the upscale vibe in the midst of a lot of restaurants, its stands apart!“

“I'm not sure where to start. I'm a sushi snob no doubt. LA has great sushi at all price levels. At the high end, you have to be unique and have the best ingredients. Sushi Iki which only does omakase does it better than just about anybody in town. Eddie, the owner and chef, is 79 with the energy of a 19 year old and he knows his fish. Be prepared to try new things, sir back and watch Eddie work his magic. If you want more info on anything you're eating, he'll tell you. If you want to treat yourself to some of LA's top sushi, don't miss this Michelin rated, one man show! An LA treasure for sure!“

“Great time and food (drove from Culver City to try them out and did not disappoint I'd drive back to eat there even tho we are drowning in sushi spots in our area) friendly counter service and sat next to a regular restaurant costumer we we're talking to that made it more enjoyable.“

“This is a great family-run sushi spot. The sushi was good. We order 3 full rolls and we ate every bite. We could've eaten a lot more. The prices and service are good. There are only two things that could've been better: the ambiance and the wait time for receiving are order. Other than that, we were satisfied. I would definitely eat here again.“

“Great sushi.Hits the sweet spot between the fancy, super high priced sushi and the lower end, bare bones (but still not cheap) sushi.Excellent quality fish with creative garnishes, and large portions. We tried only one special roll and it was sensational. Unlike many large rolls at other places, all the individual components stood out. (Often, I find these big rolls essentially interchangeable.)Not a cheap meal, but great cost to value ratio.Bryant is a terrific, enthusiastic server.“

“This place is authentic, clean and serves exceptional, quality fish. The waitresses are personal and impress happiness and joy. This is our new spot- finally found one! Try the habanero sauce on anything if you like true spice (not just Siracha).Dietary restrictions: No rice rolls, no fish rolls if requested, cooked and raw options.Kid-friendliness: Accommodating to kids.“

“I knew we were in for some amazing sushi when I was told by the hostess that they didn't serve California Rolls because this was a true Japanese restaurant. The sushi (mostly nigiri and Masa-san made an exception for us in preparing a maki:) was amazing and the ambiance is laid back yet traditional without the garish/pretentious frou-frou. We regret not doing the omakase but there's definitely going to be a next time.“

“Lesley at your sushi restaurant was an absolute delight from start to finish. From the moment you were seated, her warm smile and friendly demeanor set the tone for an exceptional dining experience. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, effortlessly guiding you through the extensive selection of sushi rolls and sashimi options. She was attentive without being intrusive, always there when you needed her but never hovering. Lesley's timing was impeccable, ensuring that each dish arrived promptly and at its peak freshness. Her recommendations were spot-on, introducing you to new flavors and combinations that you wouldn't have discovered otherwise. Throughout the meal, she went above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction, checking in regularly and promptly addressing any requests or concerns. Lesley's professionalism and passion for her work were evident in every interaction, making your dining experience not just a meal, but a memorable and enjoyable occasion. Her exceptional service truly elevated the overall atmosphere of the restaurant, leaving you eager to return for another wonderful meal with Lesly's attentive care.“

“I celebrated my birthday here at Aikan with my family. We came around 530pm and had to wait to be seated, but when I explained our seating situation, the host, Natalie, was very accommodating to us as we had a child with a stroller and a family member who was using a wheelchair. This place got packed and we were seated up front near the entrance but also out of the way as to not bother anyone. It was perfect. Once we were seated, she was also kind enough to take the time to explain the menu and how to order. Our waiter, Tu, was also very helpful and considerate towards our family. Other staff came quite frequently to make sure to pick up any empty plates also. The food portions were a lot so if it's your first time, I advise to make your first round light so you can decide if you'll be able to eat more or not. We chose the premium menu and recommend the soft shell crab, squid legs and most of all, the oysters. We all agreed and thought the oysters were the most fresh we've had of all the sushi restaurants we've gone to. Even our drinks felt crisp and delicious. Highly recommend this spot for AYCE sushi! Small bonus is that it's right around the corner from the new Porto's location!“

“Wow. The restaurant, first of all clean and looks like owner care and keep in good shape, restroom is nice and clean. Table has touch screen with menu with fast software and pictures that I can understand what to order. I ordered Ramen and Philadelphia roll with tempura outside. The roll was amazing with creamy Philadelphia, the rise was gentle and fresh-soft. Amazing. Ramen was so delicious, only the mushrooms were a little bit despicable. I paid $33.95. For this price I will give 5+++.“

“So Sushi is So So off the hook good. They closed the So Sushi Also location and are opening a brand new store across the Parking lot of their Tarzana store!Their service is fantastic! Their fish super fresh. Things to try: So Just Eat-A, Salmon and scallop sushi are a must.“

“Jin Cook is a fantastic spot for a satisfying meal! They serve up generous portions with attentive service in a cozy atmosphere. The menu boasts tasty options, with highlights including their flavorful katsu selection and delicious Galbijim. Have to try their soups next!“

“Food here is solid. I ordered to-go and for a quick dinner night with my 3 yo daughter. What we got: Salmon Skin Salad, Blue crab roll, avocado roll. All of it was pretty good. The salad was tasty, but I didn't really enjoy the salad dressing it comes with. The blue crab roll was oozing with crab. Nicely done. The avocado roll had big chunks of avocado making this one solid too. I would return. Not necessarily in a hurry, but for a night when I'm in a pinch and want something quick, healthy-ish and ok for me and the little. Sorry I didn't get any pictures of our food before we ate it. Presentation was however great too.“

“Food taste so good and very tasty and savory. Workers are so kind and polite they leave such a positive and warm welcome in the space. I've been a few times and every time i have been there they are very accommodating while offering some of the best hospitality. Highly recommend!!“

“Delicious sushi with an amazing variety of options. Service was super quick and our waiter helped with great recommendations. They do play music so if you are looking for a very quiet place that is one note I'd like to mention, it's not too loud but important to share. There is a large parking lot with free parking as well.“

“I’m surprised I never left a review here, this place is everything people brag about, but the flavors, perfect, freshness, like never before, recommended if you want fresh sushi, which is very hard to find, I highly recommend the house rules like Niko roll“

“The food was fantastic and I went before dinner rush so it wasn’t too busy. The staff were still looking for ways to serve and clear our table of any dishes instead of standing around which some people do at other restaurants when it’s slow. The tables were pretty close together so if you don’t like having your conversations overheard this might be a tight space, but I would definitely go back for the food and the service.“

“At first glance, there was nothing special going on. The decor was clean, simple and casual. It was also more expensive, especially for a Van Nuys location. But the servings had good size and freshness, not to mention chefy garnishes here and there. I was also pleasantly surprised when they had my coveted favorite, Sea Urchin!I’ll be back. This is now my go to Sushi place! ????❤️?“

“Wonderful neighborhood restaurant! The food is excellent and the prices are fair. Everyone truly enjoying their meals and their time there. Large screen TV showing sporting events, on mute. Two sections for large group dining created some fun memories with family and friends. Staff is kind, friendly, and patiently answers any questions while taking orders. We found a keeper and are looking forward to our next meal there, be it lunch or dinner. I'm In!“

“This sushi restaurant serves the highest quality and most delicious sushi every time my wife and I eat here. The consistency of the taste and quality of the fish is easily a 10 out of 10. The staff is extremely friendly and the service is top notch. This is our number one go to sushi spot in all of LA hands down. We have tried many other highly rated and hyped sushi spots, as my wife is a major sushi afficionado, but this place is at the very top of the list for both of us. It is the measuring stick for all other restaurants. If you haven't eaten here you are doing yourself a disservice. You have to eat here, you won't regret.“

“Fantastic fresh fish at a reasonable price, it's cool being able to sit at the sushi bar and watch them make it, as well as being able to chat with the chefs and ask for their recommendation. I do not however recommend bringing any picky eaters or indecisive people here; the menu is huge.“

“I love going to Toshi's, it's a hidden gem that I like to gatekeep but it's so hard not to tell people about him!! The food is so yummy and you can really tell he's put his love & care into it!! The quality of the fish is always so good and everytime I bring someone new to try his food, they say the same thing! My favorite is the miguel angel roll!! The price of the sashimi plate is honestly so good especially for the quality! Toshi is also a one man show and everytime we're there he makes us feel so welcomed! He's also the sweetest soul you'll ever encounter! I definitely recommend“

“I have been going to red ginger for years so it's time I left a review. It's always consistently good fresh fish at a very reasonable price. I am currently eating their lunch special that is an incredible value ... soup salad and two rolls for $22. Jack and the staff are always welcoming and friendly. It's a great place to sit at the bar alone or a great place to bring the whole family! They have live music Friday and sat nights... although I usually come for the sushi, they also have great Thai food and a huge selection of items. This is a family favorite we will continue and enjoy!“

“Underwhelming with food & service & atmosphere. I remember this was the gold standard for sushi restaurants, but not anymore. Rolls were sloppily put together, falling apart before even grabbing them. Waiter did not come by after bringing the 1st round of sushi. We had to order thru another waitress who was waiting on other tables.“

“Enjoyed a very nice lunch here recently. The food was very good and the staff friendly. Our only complaint was the music level was a little loud for conversation and the staff could not adjust it as it was controlled by the manager. If you're looking for a tasty meal and can talk over the music this is the place to go.“

“Jo & Go is one of the best kept secrets for fast, affordable sushi in the Valley. It's located inside the Korean market Greenland. Nothing fancy, take-out only. The sushi rolls are big, and the bowls even more so. I recommend the salmon bowl if you just want salmon sashimi over rice. You get a lot of salmon. If I want something lighter, I get the hwedupbap bowl, which is essentially a sashimi salad. It comes with a side of white rice, gochuchang sauce, and miso soup. For rolls, I like the Dragon Roll and Rainbow Roll. This is the perfect place to pick up lunch or dinner on your way home. Call ahead to place your order, and food is ready in 10-15min. Cash/credit card accepted. The place is run by a very friendly Korean couple. I just wish they were open later (they close at 7:30pm).“
