Sushi Yuzu is a small, unassuming gem that serves top-quality sushi. I’m usually picky when it comes to sushi, but this place truly impressed me. The fish is always fresh, and the nigiri is expertly prepared. The service is attentive, and the vibe is relaxed but elegant. It’s not as flashy as other sushi places in LA, but the quality of the food speaks for itself. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic sushi.

Love this place so much. Their sushi is always so fresh and love the flavor profiles they choose. My favorite rolls/sashimi there is the citrus forward specialty rolls. The lime roll is my absolute fav there. I recommend making a reso for dinner bc it's usually busy but for lunch you can usually get right in. Parking is a bit of a hassle because of the trader Joe's so close so residential parking is the move.

I was here a year ago when visiting for the holidays and it was high on our list for returning to. This visit might have been better if that’s possible! We were seated outside, heating lamps of course were already set up, and it was s really pleasant option. The food came out a roll at a time and the sake was excellent! Everything fresh everything delicious! Highly recommend!!

We had a very nice dinner here. It was highly recommended by a friend. It is a cute little place that fills up quickly. We ended up sitting outside with some heaters, which was quite nice. We tried the Brussel sprout appetizer, and it was excellent. We ordered the Asian roll, the lobster tempura roll as well as the soft shell crab roll. All were very good. The negima, which is chicken on a stick, was very tasty. We finished with mochi, which was perfect.
