Sushiko — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Went with my friend for late night dinner. Took 10 mins to get seated even though the restaurant wasn't even packed. Once seated took about 10 mins to get menus. 5 mins later we were able to order drinks. That also took a while. The wait staff is young and inexperienced. Maybe the restaurant was way understaffed. The food is mediocre at best. My friend and I both ordered different salands. They were exactly the same apart from (grilled salmon and sashimi). It's kind of disturbing because I don't understand what plain, canned, untreated corn has to do with a sashimi salad. Btw it wasn't mixed or dressed either. My friend ordered a Philly roll I got a handroll. It was good what bothered me though is the untreated seaweed. In a handroll it was so chewy I could barely bite through it. Their sushiko roll is greasy and tasteless. Salmon punch roll or w.e it's called was ok. Their sake is way overpriced too. Where all normal and even high in places charge anywhere from $13 to $15 for a bottle of Nigori they charged us $13 for a house bottle which isn't even a equivalent to half of a normal bottle. I do...

Food was great! But this place has serious issues. We were told in the beginning that the wait was 30-40 min on a Saturday night, so we asked if we can leave for about a half hour and come back ready to eat, the waiter assured it. Lo and behold, we come back almost an hour after we ordered, but no food. The waiter saw us and said that he forgot to put in the order, and they’re making it now. I asked if we can get a discount for waiting so long for and the manager said no, because of the long wait times on a Saturday night. I told him that this is not the case because our waiter said he didn’t put in the order until later. But nope. He didn’t care to even listen what I was saying, he just kept saying the same thing over again. He even blamed the waiter saying that he wasn’t even supposed to take our order!!?? Wtvr. Anyways, we finally got our food and they messed up on the order... we should’ve gotten a discount for that according to their policy.. manager wasn’t nice. Waiter was...

I have been there twice. Ignoring all other factors like their services and the price, I liked sushi they served. It was very fresh and the quality of handling fish was very satisfactory. Specially, I loved their sea hedgehogs. I never had a such a big & fresh sea uni. If you never have it before, you've better try this spiny fish as a whole. I had it with their recommended SaKe..I forgot its name (Ask the chef and he will recommend it)...anyway I was sooooooo~ good. Though their parking lot is little inconvenient and the service can be improved little bit, I will definitely go back to this place for their sushi. If you can't judge what the good sushi is, don't go there....instead buy it from your...
