Shiso Sushi Bar: Reviews & Ratings
Food was great. Glad to find this home on the wall in an area of Sun Valley that is in good purgatory. The spicy crunchy, spicy tuna and spicy shrimp hand rolls . All were fresh and delicious. Prices are fair and service was excellent.
Best spot around! Fairly priced and always fresh selection. This is our go to spot, quality food with quality service. Chill location on a busy lot. But worth the wait
Don't let the outside deceive you! This sushi restaurant had amazing fresh fish and the cutest fish tank! I came here on a Sunday at 4pm and there were a few tables taken. It's small inside and fills up fast (by 5pm all tables were nearly taken). The waitress was very nice and prompt and came over quickly to take our order. The menu was small but it made it easy to order. All the fish was fresh and tasted amazing. The miso ginger dressing on the salad was one of the best I have had and the soup came out hot! The edamame and cucumber salad wasn't amazing but that was ok. It is small inside with limited tables but a pretty big bar. The parking lot is small but I was able to find a spot. If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely be back!
Hits the spot every time customer service is great and the whole family loves this place.
Started 2025 with a great Japanese lunch! I had the Gindara combo and Negima (chicken yakitori). I personally think the Gindara combo is the best selection they have. My wife got agedashi tofu and a tempura combo. We each had a scallop roll as well. Left satisfied and full. The staff are all really nice and we spent time admiring their classical murals on the walls. This is our favorite Japanese go-to restaurant in the valley.
Stopped by for dinner. Service was quick! It looked dark from the outside but where were many tables and booth seating plus at the sushi counter. The Dodgers were playing so almost every table was occupied. We saw the menu online but they had some specials new items not on the menu as well. We got pork chasu ramen, an assortment of sushi nigiri, a cut roll, some hot appetizers and a sushi bowl. The sushi bowl was fresh and rice was perfect! The eel was little overcooked though but still tasty. The ramen had juicy pork and creamy broth but the egg was a little hard boiled instead of soft boiled. All still good. There's parking in the strip mall lot. The area can be a little iffy so just be aware of surroundings.
As a NoHo local, this is our go to sushi spot! The most accommodating service and freshness you can taste! They have either a sushi bar or tables to dine at. Our favorites are the Shops house roll and the spicy crunchy shrimp roll.
I had to take my car nearby and this place was around the corner. I was so impressed with the food! The waitresses were so sweet and the lunch specials were fresh and filling. Ty !
Outside is not that appealing but the inside is aesthetic and clean. Service was nice. The food was so good! Especially the fish belly items! My favorite was the toro and the yellowtail belly!! It absolutely melts in your mouth and is so fresh! The roll I got was okay but I think I'd try a different one next time. I personally like the small shishito peppers but these big ones were pretty yummy too I think I'd ask for them more crispy next time! Overall great experience and yummy fish belly
