This place is a hidden gem, great place to grab a few happy hour bites and drinks and watch sports. Especially when most sports bars and restaurants r too crowded, this place became our go to sports spot, bartenders and waiters are all very friendly and we've always been able to just walk in and grab a seat at the bar. Lovely little local spot! read more

My girlfriend and I had dinner at En last night. It seems that things have drastically changed since I last left a review for En. To start, the service was dreadful. The server was not friendly or helpful. We ordered salmon sushi, 2 rolls, miso soup and edamame. One of the pieces of salmon sushi had some brown spots on it. One of the rolls tasted good, the other seemed questionable (the spicy tuna didn't taste fresh). This was particularly disappointing since the bad tasting roll was about $15 from the "Happy" Hour menu. My girlfriend and I both were not feeling well after the meal, stomach-wise. And both of our stomachs are still not perfect 1 day later. It seems that the sushi quality is very poor here and not fresh. We will not be coming back. read more

En Sushi is this really awesome sushi place on Santa Monica Blvd and Barry and the first thing I want to talk about before I even get to the food is the service. Our waiters were great. They're on top of everything. They were so nice and so kind and so accommodating. The service is phenomenal. I had a great experience. It had a great ambience nice vibe. There's one TV so if you wanna watch the game at the bar you can and they were playing soft music and it has tremendous lighting. Great for setting an awesome vibe. Now let's get the food so our appetizers came first we had Gyoza and spicy tuna tartar. So they're known for their spicy tuna they have so many variations of it but the spicy tuna tartar was very good. It was so delicious chips nice and crisp tuna so flavorful not overly spicy. Very very very delicious. So typically when I get sushi, I kind of stick to what I know but I decided to venture out and I tried the King Kobra roll first and it's so delicious. It's packed with crab shrimp and pour a spicy tuna avocado. It's the best of all worlds and it had so much flavor and it was so good. Very happy I brunch out and got it. Very delicious. The next roll that I tried was volcano roll it was a California roll with baked salmon spicy tuna, a little green onions on top and again also delicious the baked salmon absolutely melts in your mouth like it's mind-boggling that Sammy could be cooked that good. The chef did an amazing job with it was very happy with it with 100% try again Overall, had a great time I will 100% be back because it is in proximity to me and trying more Rolls.Would 100% recommend.My experience 10 out of 10 read more

This place has a great happy hour (mon-fri 3-7 pm) and pretty good sushi. The place is nice and usually good crowd but not overly packed. The service is sooo quick. They attend to you quickly and bring out the food and drinks fast. And they ask if you want to order anything else before HH is over. There was one server (little older lady than the other servers) who was a bit snappy and rude with us a couple of times when she interacted with us, which was unnecessary, but other than that, everyone else was nice. We got the lychee martini which was yummy and strong, the the sunomono (didn't love but was okay), the crispy spicy tuna which was delicious and good portion, the rainbow roll - good, and the albacore jalapeno roll and asked for crispy onions on top - this was decent. All from the HH menu. Finished off with the fried banana ice cream dessert. I would say I've had better sushi living in LA obviously but I would definitely recommend this place as a local HH spot when you want pretty good sushi and want to keep it lowkey and don't want to break the bank. read more

Came here for the late night happy hour!! Loved the options they had, they had great options for both food and drinks. I got two rolls and gyoza. Both my rolls were AWESOME and the gyoza was the perfect app. Loved the dark / intimate vibe as well. Only taking away a star because it took quite a long time to get someone to take my order, check-in with me, or get me water. They had a good amount of staff around during the late night happy hour so I am hoping this was just a one-off. I will be definitely be returning! read more

En sushi is a great fast and simple option. I find all the fish to be very fresh and the rice is always the perfect texture. They have the best crispy onions as well. The service isn't the best but the food/price make up for it. Definitely recommend coming during the happy hour as the prices are fantastic. read more

Great sushi restaurant, very fresh. Service is great, everyone is so friendly. The ambiance is pretty, great for happy hour as well

This was a really cool experience. We had a big party and the team at En Sushi took good care of us. They were very attentive and very helpful splitting the bill. The food was excellent - the starters especially. The rolls were generous and full of fish. The ambiance was lovely, with a great decor and a calm environment. Can't wait to go back read more

My new favorite sushi spot in my area. En Sushi is located on a blvd with lots of street parking. It's conveniently located and not hard to miss due to its location. Came here to enjoy their happy hour specials with my friend. I was pleasantly surprised at how extensive the happy hour meal was and everything all the menu that was included. When we first arrived, we were greeted by the friendly staff who gave us a rundown of the menu. We started off with lychee martini's, the beach sushi and the garlic albacore sashimi. Everything was delicious and came out pretty quickly. You can see the chef preparing the food which you can tell is handled with care. I loved the vibe of the restaurant! While it became busy, due to the restaurants spaciousness, we never felt crowded and had amazing seating. read more

I think I've paid for at least one month of rent at this place at this point. I don't know how to describe this place other than it's a "vibe." Anytime my friends and I are trying to decide on a dinner spot this place gets suggested. Here's why: It's a nice spot close to where we live, it's great for big groups, and you never seem to need a reservation. There is a trick though: it has to be before 7pm. Their happy hour is the reason we end up choosing this place so often. You can get beers, appetizers, and whatever you want off the menu for a very fair price, and we always get all of the above. I will say, if you're going for straight up sushi there's other spots I might suggest. But if you're looking for a good time with some friends - this is the spot. One last confession - most of the time I don't get sushi. I always look at the sushi menu, but the bento box has steak, rice, salad, AND miso soup for like a little over $20. It's such a steal I almost always fold, even when I say, "I swear I'm getting sushi this time." read more

I have been coming to En for a DECADE! I love their food but what brings me back is their staff. David and Jenny have been a delight to dine with! Everyone else is amazing as well. The vibes are great, the food is spectacular! Recommend to anyone in west LA or visiting read more

Your average sushi. Food: Fish was decent, but the rice was not good. It felt as thought the rice was dry and old. Definitely not an authentic Japanese sushi place, so if that's what you're looking for, then this is not the place. For the price of each nigiri sushi, the quality was not up to par. On the other hand, they have a good lunch deal thats cheap and plentiful. Ambiance: Nice interior and spacious. Ample seating including booths. Parking: Limited parking behind the building (fits about 7 cars). Street metered parking in front of the restaurant. Service: Great! Super nice staff and quick service. Also came back frequently to refill drinks which I appreciated :) Overall, disappointed with the quality and taste of the sushi. But if you're looking for a cheaper lunch meal with average grade sushi, then you might want to hop into this restaurant! read more

En Sushi - Nigiri sushi - Shrimp and Hirame - Japanese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

En Sushi is one of a few sushi restaurants on this strip of Santa Monica Blvd. and my favorite for Happy Hour! They have a lot of great hand/cut roll, beer, and sake specials from 3-7pm daily. Their sushi is fine, I wouldn't say it's great or that it's super fresh, but it gets the job done when you want sushi and BAD Sushi is closed (Mondays and Tuesdays). I've had the Teriyaki Chicken too and it's also decent but along with soup or salad, it comes with diced potatoes, which I thought was...unconventional? In general, everything on the menu is a little overpriced for what it is if you come here when it's not Happy Hour, but definitely worth the trek if you can make it by 7. read more

coming back to update my review to 5 stars. this has become a friday night neighborhood staple over the last 6 years i've lived here. my go tos are as follows (and no, i never NOT order these!): lychee martini - the best i've ever had! & yes, anytime i see a lychee martini elsewhere, i order it & it never compares to en sushi's. crispy rice spicy tuna roll - the tuna is always fresh, rice is always perfectly crispy, & the topping proportions are perf. sesame chicken - holy JUICYYY & flavorfullll. i love. only issue i have is when it burns my mouth when i dig in right away, but that's a personal problem. and all of these items are on their happy hour menu! food comes quick & the staff is always so friendly. sitting by the sushi bar is a vibe. must eat!!! read more

There is no shortage of sushi bars on this stretch of Santa Monica Blvd., and I don't always like sushi bars with more modern ambience and black marble tables, but En Sushi avoids the traps of the more expensive sushi establishments in LA that tend to have that higher-end decor. Instead, En Sushi is reasonably priced, usually not too loud inside, has great specials (anything I've tried here with the sea bream is a winner), and is open most days when other nearby establishments are closed. Friendly staff and a nice bar area. Street parking isn't too difficult if you don't feel like paying for one of the lots either. read more

Wait this was such a gem. We chose it because of the mood lighting and 1.99 sake happy hour and stayed for the FOOD. Wow it was so good. And the happy hour was an amazing deal. The salmon especially was to die for. It was also the most efficient service of anywhere I've ever been it was awesome. Will be back!! read more

I've been here so many times and didn't realize I've never written a review. My favorite is the seared salmon sashimi. They have an extensive selection of cut rolls, but I noticed that many of them have California roll as the foundation, so it's kind of repetitive. Service here is consistently amazing! Super friendly and attentive people. Only minor gripe is that the TVs are pretty tiny and it's hard to watch a game here. read more

Considering the size and quality of the portions is very average, the rolls are very overpriced. The service is also extremely slow and the wait did not know the prices and had to keep checking the menu. I do not recommend dining here. Ambience is okay. read more

The happy hour prices were good but the sushi quality was low. We ordered both sushi and sashimi and both were flavorless and bland. The waiter had no personality and acted like he didn't want to work. The others were great and attentive and asked us if we needed anything else. They saved the night. There are so many other restaurant choices in this city especially sushi restaurants that we cannot recommend this restaurant. read more

Great happy hour! Can get busy and wait staff can take awhile. The sushi is consistent and yummy! I love the lighting and the many types of seating! read more

I've been coming to En Sushi for more than 10 years. They have one of the best menus in town, if you go during happy hour-they have a lot of their house rolls and discounted drinks. My personal favorite app is their garlic edamame , it is a little spicy but not too much. they also have the best gyoza I've ever tried. For drinks you can't ever go wrong with a nice cold Sapporo, or if you want to try something new I recommend their LYCHEETINI lychee & vodka drink. My fave roll on their menu is the Rock En. The 911 is amazing if you want to try something spicy. if you want something fresh and light- the rainbow roll. When I ask for extra ginger they never disappoint and bring me a whole side plate full. Closer to the end of the week or during happy hour it can get packed, there's a reason for that, if you don't want to wait sit at the bar. There's street parking around, and a metered parking lot across the street! read more

Came for happy hour and it was SO good. I'm surprised another guy was surprised that this place has great reviews because it absolutely deserves it! It was busy for New Year's Day! And learned they're open every day of the year but Super Bowl lol. When I'm not on dry January I'll be back to truly that pomegranate margarita! Lol. Garlic albacore sashimi and yuzu yellowtail were my favorites the fish quality was insane and my mouth is watering thinking about these dishes again. My daughter is 8 and always gets Cali roll with soy paper everywhere we go and this was excellent. I love getting jalapeño poppers (that are stuffed with raw tuna after cooking) but these are not and have fake crab, that would be my only wish for difference from what I ate. Lovely spicy mayo. Wonderful meal will definitely try other dishes next time. read more

En Sushi is located on Santa Monica Blvd just west of the 405 and Sepulveda. The ambience is nice with darker lighting and comfy booths also with a large sushi bar all suitable for dates, special occasions. I visited at the late Happy Hour from 9-11(double check). The sushi yellowtail(Saba), rolls and tempura was excellent and above average for the tough sushi category. Prices were lower for above average value. NOTE: My handroll was so yummy I ordered another. Service could use some improvement but was decent. Highly recommended. read more

Now, I like this place. My wife and I often go here in person when we want good sushi. And we've ordered online too. So, this review is for tonight only, we ordered online. Somebody decided they didn't want to do their job properly. We ordered a volcano roll, but what I got didn't look like one. It looked like hot garbage, and falls apart at the lightest lift. Whatever was supposed to be on top was overcooked and looked like meatballs that were pretty hard than it should have been. It was also drencehed in sauce like lasagna, which it wasn't supposed to be. So not a pleasant experience tonight. Overall, a 4/5 star rating for the establishment. read more

I can't understand the high ratings for this place. I came here for happy hour. I had the spicy tuna crispy rice, fried chicken wings, albacore jalapeño roll, rainbow roll, and the salmon cucumber roll. All of the sushi was overly drenched in sauces to hide the poor quality. The only thing that was decent were the chicken wings, but it was paired with a hot sauce on the side that tasted like Red Rooster hot sauce which was odd since it made it taste like food from a southern restaurant. I wasn't expecting much with the prices being so affordable, but even with my lowered expectation, En Sushi didn't meet it. The service at En Sushi, however, is great. Our waitress was super nice and checked in on us a lot. Our drinks were always refilled before even having to ask. The restaurant was clean and huge with plenty of tables available. read more

It's been a while since I last came here and today I decided to drop by. The service is phenomenal, everyone was very attentive and kind. I arrived for happy hour and there's a lot to choose from but I ultimately decided on the crunch roll and albacore sushi. Both were amazing! Prices are fair and overall I enjoyed the food. Will come back soon! read more
