Amazing sushi. I go probably once a week. Cheap too . No frills. Giant rolls and pieces that blow away a lot of the nearby fancier places. I love this place. Fresh delicious sushi rolls, salad, sake, fried stuff, everything. It is my little secret place and everyone I've taken there has loved it too. read more

Obsessed with their albacore. Definitely one of my favorites in LA. Chefs are kind and attentive, delivering prompt food orders. Delicious! read more

This place was good and had some interesting rolls but was kind of expensive! My husband and I spent over $100 on like 3-4 rolls for takeout. I'm glad I tried it but I think there are far better sushi spots on Ventura blvd. Maybe I'll go in and order in store next time. read more

best sushi ever! it's on the pricier side but so worth it. everything was amazing quality and the service was great!

So glad we have a place like this close by. Tepan Side - The food was very good & you get plenty, suggest ordering the side of the Jumbo Shrimp, they are so big. They keep the grills clean which is a big plus. The inside is roomy, clean & service is always good. Plenty of parking. read more

Absolutely delicious sushi. Great prices. Chill atmosphere. Great people here that provide great service. I love to sit at the sushi bar and just directly tell the sushi artist what I want. They have plenty of parking and there's also street parking. Oh they also serve beer and sake. Honestly this place is a gem. read more

I was there with a friend for a Friday lunch. This location is a bit smaller than the other. Service 2/5: only 1 server, 1 sushi chef. And the server was on her personal phone the whole time we were there. Food came out slowly Food 3/5: the best dish I ordered was the tuna on crispy rice, perfect crunchy. Galaxy roll isn't good at all, the roll only comes with 6 thin pieces and the fish was over baked. Overall, their sushi roll is smaller compared to before. Fish quality went down Just one thing that confused me was the tip jar at the sushi bar? As I know, most of sushi restaurants will share the tip from the credit card receipt/cash with sushi chefs, this place has a separate tip jar. I got confused. I decided to tip less on the card and more cash into the jar, since the server only gave me water and menu. The sushi chef took order and served read more

Everything is great at your place except the Lady Manager. You can't make reservations at your restaurant. I go there often. Yesterday we walk in and the Manager wants us to seat by entrance. The door opens and closes and it is cold. Wanted to seat on the other side, Managers lies and says it is reserved for 4 people. BS! Walked out. Time to get rid of her read more

Always the absolute best. One of my favorite sushi spots in the valley. they do Ramen as well and it is worth a try. the best roll on the menu is the Marylin Mon roll. Staff are always great and there usually is a wait, but that's because they are so good! read more

So I decided to go back this year because the manager wasn't there soon as she walked in she violated my rights. She discriminated against me and started yelling at me about putting a report on yelp and the review what I put regarding the service that I got what a discrimination. I told him they're gonna hear from my attorney regarding this matter. It is so horrible manager street came up to me sort of harassing me in front of other people started cussing at me. It is totally wrong. Unbelievable. I have nothing against the people that work here besides the manager and she told me that the owner told me that I'm no welcome here and it's unbelievable how a customer can sit there and eat and get violated like this. This is horrible. They're gonna hear from my attorney for sure. Regarding this matter. It's discriminating against me. I was eating my food and everything I did pay for my food food. read more

Amazing sushi and great service. Overall one of the best sushi restaurants in the valley

This location it's always dirty and all tables are sticky and oily. I been almost at all sushi bars on ventura blvd and this is the only place they charge for ponzu sauce and sesame, on my last visit I order 2 sesame seed and 2 ponzu sauce and they charge me $10 extra. Now I know why no one wants to go there anymore. If I could I would give this location Minus 10 star. read more

This Japanese restaurant used to be nice, good food and very affordable. I haven't visited for a while, and tonight was a disaster!!!!!!! Food was tasteless , it was made differently, not in a better tho. Prices were too high for what I got and didn't match the menu when I got my bill. They bumped it up for nonsense reasons. The 2 pieces of Albacore sushi $8.99, but It was billed 11.99 because I asked a seared one, just 2 sec of heat on it , change on the price? I have never paid a difference on the price of regular and a seared one!!!! The sushi rolls were bumped up from the menu by 3-4 dollars because they gave me 8 pieces instead of 6 pieces and I never even asked for that!!!! When I brought it up to the attention of the lady in charge , she was rude about it. The place didn't even had a Japanese atmosphere, I didn't see one Asian staff nor chefs! I will never go back to this ripoff place! read more

Terrible Terrible Terrible service! This place used to be great, but recently no thanks!! I recently ordered sushi for my family on Saturday December 19th and this was my experience on that night: 1. I placed my order at 5:15pm via Door Dash, and was told it would be done by 6:30pm. I arrived, and stood in line outside in the cold, along with 5 others for almost 45 minutes. While standing in line, a gentleman skipped to the front and the lady (the manager) acknowledged him and gave him his order. Totally disregarded everyone else that was standing in line for 45 minutes waiting to be acknowledged, or helped. There was a huge commotion outside because of it, and everyone started complaining to the Manager. 2. I received my food at 7:15pm. Almost 2 hours from the time I placed my order. Once I got to my car, I had a piece of plastic on my sushi. This was plastic from a plastic bag. Unbelievable. 3. My sushi rolls were wrong. I ordered a Deluxe Crunchy roll and got Eel. I took the order back inside and told the lady, and she said "your order is right. It says right here on your receipt." I said Ma'am, that says "Eel SAUCE", not an Eel roll. She definitely was not listening, and was clearly overwhelmed or something. She gave me extra eel sauces, not the roll that I ordered. LOL TERRIBLE TERRIBLE! I will be going by and getting the contact for the owner. read more

Cho Cho San - Open hours - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tarzana, California

Cho Cho San has been my favorite sushi place since I tried it over 8 years ago and I go pretty frequently ( 1-2 times a months). I usually get the Halloween roll, rice crispy spicy tuna (comes with two), 911 roll which is a little spicy, and the firefly roll and I highly highly recommend all of them! Always add sweet vinegar sauce to all my rolls. The fish is always very fresh and they really give you your moneys worth without over doing it with the rice. Service is alway quick and the staff is very friendly and attentive when dinning in. read more

I'm giving an update after all these years of being a dedicated patron to Cho Cho. We actually prefer the Thousand Oaks location in terms of service and quality nowadays. However, this location has seen it's time and I'm sad that it has shown the age and decline. Management has gone downhill and so has some of its quality yet we still go back Bc it is the OG place and we love the tradition of their signature rolls. They also still manage to stick around despite the other location down the street closing (kind of glad Bc it sucked and service at the time took advantage to dip more into tipping themselves more on our CC but that's another story!) I want to add that since my kid has joined our restaurant foray, she tends to order the "other" items they may not be known for including their ramen. I have to say it's actually not that bad! It would not be traditional in the sense of ramen we eat but flavor and portion is fairly on point and she liked it so we'll give it that. Overall, I hope Cho Cho San stays around and maintains their status as a standby for us Bc they helped establish our journey into Ventura Blvd. sushi joint discoveries over 15 years ago. If they can keep those rolls with their quality and improve on the service, it can hopefully remain a mainstay, at least in our repertoire. read more

Cho Cho San is the man (or woman or an)! I haven't been here in quite some time, but the quality of fresh food and even fresher service blows you away no matter how much time has passed. Planned an outing with a squad of friends for my birthday week and manage to eventually get grouped together on the corner closest to the main entrance while initially having some of us on one half of the bar and the other opposite... this is a fun and busy place... with more than just sushi however the such is the "cats pajama's." We each had a roll or two... this guy focusing on the veggie friendly options such as the avocado and veggie roll (to name two of many). The veggie roll had an amazing lengthy cut (8 to 10 pcs) and was both aesthetically and pallet pleasing. The prices are VERY reasonable. The parking is VERY timely... you might get lucky and find a spot in the lot however if you're meeting up with friends or a date odds are one of you might have to do street parking or at a lot nearby (iHop for instance). The bathrooms and entire restaurant are pretty well kept. Would live to come back soon. Free Ice Cream for birthdays (don't believe any of it is non-dairy/vegan friendly... but it's an option as is the complimentary frozen dessert when checking-in to this long standing gem. read more

The food here was incredibly amazing, the service not so much. Our waitress never came around (literally only to drop off the food and to hand us our bill), but the Itamae here was very friendly and social. At $25-$30 per roll and only one actual table in the entire restaurant, I would not recommend this place for anything more than a casual night alone. Also, $18 for two waters and two fountain drinks is absurd. read more

I am only giving two stars because this place used to be a five-star restaurant. Unfortunately I ate there recently and the food was absolutely horrible. I have eaten here for years and I've always loved it but this time the albacore sashimi was mushy and fishy. The miso soup was old the tofu was rotten and super gross. I truly hate writing a bad review for this place but it has gone far below what it was before. read more

Cho Cho San - The sign for the restaurant - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tarzana, California

I downgraded my review 1 star because if you do take out, it takes forever and a day. I've been going here for over 10 years. Their sushi is always fresh, neat and decent size pieces. The ST Salmon Slam is among my favorite. It's probably better to sit and eat here. It's no longer revolving sushi but they kept the same setup so it is small. Not ideal for large groups. read more

Cho Cho San - Fountain out front - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tarzana, California

Cho Cho San is a hidden gem in the valley. I've been going to them since the 90s when there was a conveyor belt of sushi that you can pick from. I believe owners have changed hands and not sure who owns it now but the food is still amazing. I personally am not fond of raw sushi so I order the scallop dynamite and the galaxy roll. Salmon skin roll also does it for me! Plenty of other cooked sushi options but the ones mentioned are my go to. For the raw sushi lover, the 911 with crispy onion is a great one to try! read more

Oh Cho Cho San how sad it is to see you decline in quality. I ordered the lunch special with 3 hand rolls and there was more rice than fish, also the seaweed looked old, and the prices on the regular menu did not match the inside of the restaurant. The restaurant is a round bar with the guy in the middle making your sushi, the place is really small, and when you walk in you definitely smell the fish. The service was okay, but I will be closing the chapter to Cho Cho San. Back in the days this place was amazing but not anymore. read more

Rude staff. Sign clearly said open, door was open and Yelp said they where open. However upon arriving we where rudely turned away by a woman that doesn't have any quality customer service and shouldn't be dealing with people apparently. She asked what we wanted and then proceeded to tell us to look at the sign because they are closed. Clearly by the picture I have attached BOTH of the signs said OPEN. I've never eaten here and will never return simply for the lack of humanity and kindness this place lacks in. A no sorry we are closed would have been sufficient but to have me question my ability to read is another thing. Wouldn't recommend this place. read more

I've been going to Cho Cho San in Tarzana since I was a kid and it has been delicious every single time! The portions are great and they make sure to put a good amount of fish in every roll. We're picked up from here a few times during COVID and their to-go system is great. They also have a good amount of outdoor seating if you are interested in eating there. The manager is so sweet and everyone that works there is extremely attentive. My go-to rolls: 911 roll - spicy and delicious. A must have every time I order from here Chefs albacore - has crispy onions and a ponzu dressing!! Sooo good. Side salad - simple but delicious with a ginger dressing I wish I could drink by the gallon. Love this restaurant I will be a regular for as long as they are open read more

A while ago I came to this Cho Cho San and didn't like the way their dishes were slightly different than the one I was a regular at on balboa.... however ever since covid we have been getting delivery from this place and it has been amazing. Our food order is mostly correct unlike the other place and the food quality has been exceptional. Other than the fact that they ran out of crab one of the times and the person at the restaurant tried everything in his power to help us fix our order otherwise this place has been amazing. Our only complaint is the serving size that they serve on crispy rice with spicy crab mix is literally half the serving size and portion of the cho cho San on balboa. Our favorites are the chef albacore , baked crab hand roll, and a few others read more

I freakin' love Cho Cho San. It's a very intimate place because the sushi chefs are in front of you. They are all super funny and have great energy. You can really tell they enjoy making sushi and love seeing hungry customers happy. Their sushi rolls are delicious and I can taste the quality meat. It's a little on the pricey side but it's totally worth it for delicious food, fun service and good vibes. I've been here a few times and I can tell you that sometimes the wait time can be long since it's not a big restaurant. The parking lot is shared among other businesses within the plaza. read more

Small but great sushi restaurant. The whole restaurant consists of a rectangular sushi bar where you are served by sushi chefs. It's not ideal for large groups because it takes time to get seated if they are busy. The sushi was great. The sushi chefs take their time preparing your sushi. They have a great selection of rolls from their menu to choose from. Prices are little on the high side but nothing out of the ordinary. read more
