Eel crunch and salmon
Brandon E.

This place is a problem, in the best way. The sushi's so fresh I was low key waiting for one of the rolls to start swimming again. The spicy tuna hit harder than your ex's rebound, and the eel roll had me rethinking my life choices in the most delicious way possible. We had beer on draft, and I swear it was colder than my last situationship. The waiter had that smooth "you want another?" energy and yeah, I did. Next thing I knew, I was three pints deep, flirting with my sashimi like it was gonna text me back. Only complaint? That bill popped up like a horror movie twist. I looked at it like, "Bro... did I just buy stock in the Pacific Ocean?" Still worth every sip, bite, and existential crisis.

Westlake roll

Really happy we came here for lunch! She's a California roll loyalist, but I had my mom try the seared albacore roll, and she absolutely loved it! Fresh, expertly crafted, and packed with options to please every palate

This is the right place to come and get sushi !! They marinated the fish all night and it is so delicious !! The price is very reasonable Thank you Janice and Christina :)

E+Mon is adorable inside and out. We loved how intimate this restaurant is. Inside the restaurant is super small with a sushi bar and only a few tables. The place to hang is definitely on their outdoor patio that also only holds about six tables. On a Friday this place was packed but we thankfully grabbed a seat outside. Staff were nice and the vibes were A+. Now for what everyone cares about, the sushi. We were pleasantly surprised at how generous the sushi portions were and that they had some more unique items. My friend ordered a Starry Night Roll with salmon and spicy tuna which we dubbed a favorite. I fell in love with their Bluefun Tuna. Perfect texture and super fresh. Definitely a cute understated spot to grab lunch or dinner. It's Westlake so prices reflect the ambiance. For about $50 a person we left satisfied but not stuffed. A little pricey but the quality was there and we really enjoyed how nice the patio was and the staff were attentive in bringing out dishes and cashing us out. Nice people work here and if you haven't been to E+Mon yet we'd highly recommend checking them out. A solid sushi restaurant on this side of town.

Bar sitting area

Innovative rolls, lively ambiance, and reasonable prices! We tried E*Mon for the first time last night, and we had a great time there abd would definitely return. Located in a popular strip mall within Westlake, this small restaurant is highly accessible with ample parking in front. Due to the wide popularity of this restaurant, we made an advance reservation the night before. I am so glad we did, as there was already a line in front of restaurant before it opened at 5 pm. The restaurant is small, with sitting at the sushi bar, inside along the window, and some outdoor sitting. There were about 7 chefs and 5 waiters/waitresses. The operation seemed highly efficient with quick turnaround for all orders and services. As for the menu, this restaurant offers a varieties of innovative rolls, sushi/nigiris, bao buns, salads, sashimi, and beverages. We felt this restaurant really excelled in innovative and yet delicious rolls. We ordered the lemon roll and blue crab/yellow tail roll, and we loved that all the ingredients came together perfectly in lovely presentations. As for the nigiris, while we loved the toros, other standalone fish was above average only. Despite us coming at at 5pm, the restaurant was already out of orange clam, sweet shrimps, and tomago, which felt a bit strange when the restaurant was just opened at 5pm on a busy Saturday evening. There was also an error in our bill where we were initially charged for sweet shrimp and tomago which were out, but they corrected the bill afterwards. The prices at the restaurant was great and very reasonable. Most appetizers were around $10-$15, , rolls were around $15-$25, and nigiris were around $12-$18 for 2. Our bill came to around $200 for people, which was very reasonable for the quality of our meals. If you love innovative rolls, this is the place for you. Highly recommend making reservations in advance so you don't have to wait at the door.

I've been a big fan and regular customer for a few years. Meals typically run $400.-$500. For 2 with 1 or 2 Nigori sakes. The last 3 visits have been pretty unsatisfactory with the last one confirming I'll never go back. Assuming the older sushi chef is the owner, we always sit in front of him. He has been extremely rude and unwelcoming for one reason or another none of which has to do with our party. The sushi was great, but now, just good. The atmosphere and hospitality combined with very high prices makes it easy to cross this off my list for good. Kanda Sushi in Westlake treats each diner as valued guests and the sushi is terrific. I'll be spending my $1,000./ month there from now on.

triple seared special
Acacia W.

Fish quality was fresh and paired well. Particularly enjoyed the triple seared sushi with scallop, salmon, and toro. Nice cozy restaurant with good service and lots of natural light. Was disappointed by the spicy albacore cut roll. It tasted weird, not necessarily because the fish quality tasted bad but because of what was mixed in. On top of that the rice was mushy and soggy. Besides that dish enjoyed my lunch there. Definitely not cheap though

Crab wrapped in soy paper
Rachel M.

Varied menu, quick staff, delicious food, and dessert was fabulous. I liked the modern edgy music. And the location is right next to the farmers market on Sundays which makes for a 2 for 1 adventure. I highly recommend the coconut pudding. It's like rice pudding or arroz con leche with a brulee top.

The pressed sushi was easily the highlight of the meal. It had an amazing balance of textures and flavors, with just the right amount of sear and seasoning to let the fish shine. It was one of the best versions of pressed sushi I've had and something I'll definitely order again. We also had several fresh rolls, and every one of them was excellent. The ingredients were fresh, the portions were generous, and nothing felt overcomplicated. The focus was clearly on quality, and it showed in every bite.

Below are several issues we encountered during our visit: - Seating and Reservation Notes: We booked a reservation via Resy with clear notes stating we had two dogs in a stroller and preferred outdoor seating. The hostess tried to seat us inside and claimed Resy does not pass along reservation notes. When we requested an available outdoor table without a reservation placard, she insisted it was held for a party of four. However, 30 minutes later, she seated a party of two at that exact table. - Uncomfortable Dining Conditions: We were placed at a tiny table where our dishes could barely fit, making the meal very uncomfortable. - Cleanliness and Service Delays: It took 20 minutes for anyone to visit our table, starting with the water steward, who served us wasabi and ginger in a visibly dirty dish. We did not see our waitress until 30 minutes after arriving. She was unfriendly, offered no apology for the delay, and did not offer to answer any of our menu questions. Additionally, the men's restroom was in poor condition. - Lack of Management: After dinner, I asked to speak with a manager. The waitress informed me that no manager or lead was on site and that no one was currently in charge. The lack of management and oversight was evident throughout our visit.

This used to be a great place for something a little more special than the neighborhood sushi place, sadly, we won't be coming back. First, the service is terrible. We were seated outside on a broken bench seat. I asked if we could have the table we had walked right past on the way outside (same size) and was told there was a reservation for that table. Now, we had a reservation as well, but the hostess said "they made their reservation before you". Well, guess what, that table sat EMPTY the entire time we were there. Hmmm.... maybe we didn't "rate" the inside table? Then service was slow, just painfully slow. 15 minutes before we got water, then waited to order for quite a bit. First dish came out 30 minutes after we ordered. Final dish was a good hour after we ordered. And the wait/runner staff used to be exceptional. Sadly, doesn't seem like anyone is training them to provide service at a more upscale restaurant. Like, please walk around and deliver the plates to the person who ordered them, don't stand at one corner and direct me to give plates to my friends. The food was good, but honestly not that much better than I can get at my local spot. The wagyu skewers were blah, and you used to get one big lovely juicy scallop on that robata dish and now it's three puny ones, maybe frozen? The spicy tuna on forbidden rice was scrumptious, and the crispy shrimp is a good portion for table sharing. It's sad, because this definitely used to be our go-to for celebration dinners, but the experience has gone downhill for sure.

However, as the server was presenting it to me, he informed me that they didn't have the black cod so they were giving me regular miso Seabass. That is a very different fish.

We decided to stop by here along the way back and did not regret that decision at all. This place was a really sweet Asian fusion spot, very classy and nice ambiance, huge menu selection, service was friendly and good, food was spectacular, restrooms were nice and clean, and we had an amazing dining experience here. We'd come back if/when we're in the area again, and would highly recommend this place for your Asian fusion fix!

If you're the type to enjoy spicy food, don't be afraid to request the max spicy level, since that's the only thing we would've changed about our meal here.
