Perfect spot for a date or girls night! The space has a really romantic, moody atmosphere, and we had such a nice time here. We ordered the sashimi platter, Wagyu don, Diamond Roll, and miso cod. Everything was delicious, but the sashimi platter and miso cod were probably my favorites. The fish was fresh, everything came out beautifully presented, and the portions were great for sharing. The service was also friendly and attentive throughout the night. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely come back read more

First time at Jade, and wow, what a beautiful spot! The aesthetic is stunning and creates such a fun atmosphere. We had a reservation but grabbed a couple of drinks at the bar first. The bartender was incredibly friendly, told us about the different events they host, and encouraged us to come back on one of their livelier nights. Every drink was crafted perfectly, balanced, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The food was just as impressive. Everything tasted fresh and was absolutely delicious. We came on a Friday night, and it had more of a date night vibe, which we really enjoyed. From what we were told, the weekends get much livelier with rooftop events, so we'll definitely be back to experience that. Highly recommend if you're looking for great cocktails, delicious food, and a gorgeous atmosphere. read more

So a group of us came here to celebrate a friend's birthday. A girlfriend and I arrived early to sit at the bar and catch up before the rest of the group arrived. Those bar stools are dangerous. They are pretty cheaply made and lightweight. I almost fell out of it as i was sitting down because it tilted to easily. Mind you, I'm not a big person. But they are super cute, so it was aesthetics, not safety that they were going for. So just beware bar patrons. The rest of the interior was just as cute. Our host was very welcoming and had us seated in a nice comfortable area (this place is very small... so they're probably all nice areas. Haha) anyway the food was fantastic. My drink was very strong, probably a bit too strong for me since i had more than one. There was dancing, I don't know exactly what that was about but it was fun to watch. That said, the place is so small that the dancing took over most of the available floor in there... so it was a little tricky to leave. But overall great time. I'm read more

Hands down one of the most gorgeous dining atmospheres in Beverly Hills! The interior aesthetic and vibes are stunning. We ordered the Spicy Tuna Crisp, the signature Jade Roll, Miso Black Cod, and the Jewelry Box Chirashi with uni added. The standout dish of the night was easily the Wagyu Don-tender beef, quail egg, and delicious crispy shallots. Great service and the perfect spot for drinks, dinner, and date night read more

The owners here are so wonderful and joyous really enjoying and celebrating all of their clients here with warmth and kindness. They opened this place up as it's been two years but not enough people know about it or else it would be the place to be for some dancing in Beverly Hills. I danced until past 2 am lol! So much fun! Please come and check out this beautiful restaurant. Indoor and outdoor seating. I haven't tried the menu but it seems they have a great menu. Check it out great for first date vibe. Great ambiance. Dance the night away at Jade it was a blast. read more

Loved the interior and vibes + house playlist here while dining. It was a great spot for a girl's night out. The staff was able to help me find some gluten-free options on the menu and make some modifications which I appreciated. I enjoyed the Japanese potato salad and vegan roll. My friend liked the jewelry chirashi box. The presentation was stunning. read more

Very good sushi, the corned cheese was delicious and best miso soup I've ever had. The atmosphere was 10/10. The yuzu margarita was also delicious, and their espresso martini with baileys was super yummy. The waitress did accidentally up charge us but fixed it when we said something about it.

Japanese cuisine with French culinary flair. @jade.beverlyhills is such a gorgeous restaurant! The ambiance is so lovely - the perfect place to have a date, catch up with friends, or celebrate a special occasion! Address: 467 N. Canon Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 Nearby parking lot around the corner makes it convenient. I highly recommend their happy hour menu from 5:30 to 7pm on M-TH and to keep your eye out for featured musical guests, DJs and artists! Great cocktails for $13. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious, especially the Jade Roll, Hamachi Crudo, and Wagyu dumplings.

Jade was a top contender for my NYE plans, but we ended going somewhere else. We decided to come here this past weekend for a weekend getaway. Upon entering you'll notice all the green decor! Its's very dark and moody. I loved all the music they were playing too! The menu is a page long and we wanted to try so many items! We got the smashed cucumbers, wagyu gyoza, hamachi crudo, black snapper sashimi, miso black cod, a handroll, and the 9-piece nigiri. The cucumbers were refreshing, and all the fish was so fresh. The nigiri was beautifully presented and came with miso soup. We saved room for dessert and decided on the ichigo eton mess. It was toasted merengue, strawberry, plum wine whip, honey sesame cashew brittle, strawberry yuzu coulis, shiso. It was fun cracking the meringue, but wish it was a little less dense. This dessert was refreshing and not too sweet. Service was very quick and attentive. All the food came out so fast! Definitely a great spot for a night out in Beverly Hills! read more

We visited Jade Beverly Hills to celebrate my wife's birthday. We were very impressed with the dishes at this establishment. The menu selection isn't very large, but the taste and quality are outstanding. The combinations of ingredients are very interesting. The team did an amazing job.

I've been to several unique themed restaurants before that get a lot of attention for the decor and vibe but then lack in quality and flavor of food. Jade excelled in both! Named a Japanese Brassierie with Japanese cuisine with a French flair (two of my favorite styles), this gorgeous spot is a must-try. The interior is beautifully decorated and clean-- very stylish and not cheesy or gaudy. It has a low-light, "lo-fi" vibe. They also have a piano in the center of the room and a live DJ. I tried the jewelry bowl chirashi which was fresh and delicious. I didn't each much rice (didn't want to fill up) but they don't give you too much anywayl-- the focus is on the fish and roe anyway. Roe was quite salty but good to balance it out with the other items in the box including the Perilla leaf (don't just eat the roe on it's own). My friend ordered the Onyx and the black ink sauce complemented the rich umami flavor. I think our favorite though was the Hamachi crudo (I love hamachi anyway) but it had a great sweet&sour sauce with crunchy garlic oil. There were chunks of pineapple that added a zesty-ness and lastly, the wakame mellowed out the flavor nicely. The slices of fish were a bit tricky to pick up with metallic chopsticks though, even for a seasoned chopstick user like myself -- so that was amusing. Lastly, they have such a unique dessert menu. We got 2 desserts: Ichigo meringue, and black sesame creme brulee. The creme brulee was INCREDIBLE. I'm not kidding--you gotta get it! It's so delicious (not too sweet) and topped with sliced blueberries that complemented the sweetness so well! And finally, our server was so nice enough to bring a pretty gold bowl with lid with mochi ice cream and strawberries for my birthday. There was a candle slot in the lid too! For their seasonal wine, I tried the Beaujolais and it did not disappoint. Service was good-- no issues there. Staff really look out for you and make sure all your needs there are met. For the location, parking is street and also a lower level parking garage (just $5 though I think) - lovely area (I mean, it's Beverly Hills..). All in all, Jade is great. Lives up to its reputation in quality and style. read more

This place has been on my list for awhile , we walked into Jade on a Saturday night with no reservation and were pleasantly surprised they were able to seat us at the bar. Honestly best decision! The bar has such a great vibe... intimate, stylish, and perfect for watching the chef work while enjoying a drink. Our bartender was amazing he was super friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. Drinks were great too: balanced, refreshing. Met the owner who was there drying dishes and working right along side everyone else. The restaurant itself is small, cozy, and really cute, giving it that tucked-away, elevated hidden-gem feel. It's perfect for a date night, a chill dinner, or even bringing a small group for a fun night out. They let us know that on some nights they have live music, which would be a great addition. We ordered: Multiple hand rolls ,fresh, flavorful, and made right in front of us. Mushroom appetizer - warm, savory, and packed with umami. So good! Crudo appetizer - beautifully plated and super fresh. Everything tasted amazing and was presented with so much detail. We would absolutely come back again. Jade is the perfect blend of great food, great energy, and great service. Highly recommend! (Photos of some of the dishes we ordered included below. ) read more

My husband and I visited Jade Beverly Hills on New Year's Eve. We read online that it would be open until very late with a DJ to ring in the new year. Overall, the restaurant is lovely with great decor, small and cozy. Since we came here on New Year's Eve and they were hosting the event, perhaps the restaurant was a bit disorganized. My guess is that given the higher number of people coming in, a different menu, and a late night, there was more stress and confusion among the restaurant staff. The prix fix menu was delightful and offered a variety of choices. I don't consume any seafood, so it was wonderful to see other intriguing dishes. My only complaint is that they seemed to be rushing us with the menu. They would barely allow us time to enjoy our plate when the next one was already at the table. I think they overbooked themselves and were trying to make things go faster. My absolute favorite was the momiji jidori chicken. Oh my goodness it was cooked to perfection! This is probably the most delicious, tender, and juicy chicken I've ever had. The momiji marinade that accompanied the chicken was the best part. It was a spicy and citrus sauce that really added a nice touch. My second favorite was the dessert. I got the hojicha cheescake. It was fluffy, soft, and it had a melt-in-your-mouth texture! Add some citrus cookie crumble that came on top to your bite, and you were in dessert heaven. I was looking forward to the wagyu crispy rice, but the texture was not good at all. I was disappointed when I requested this option and our waitress informed me that the rice was overcooked, making it extremely chewy and hard. Since I don't eat seafood, the other options on the menu were not appropriate for me, so I went ahead with the crispy rice regardless. They were indeed very chewy and sometimes hard to eat. The flavor was still there, however, which made it even more disappointing because this would have been one of my favorites. We were looking forward to the party aspect with a DJ that was advertised online. Turns out the DJ is the owner or manager of the restaurant, and it really sounded like an amateur DJ. There were some odd mixes and drops in the music played that night. I think Jade has potential for becoming a late night bar or even a nightclub, but please hire a professional DJ! read more

We happened to be in Beverly Hills and I wanted to try out this restaurant. Jade is beautiful inside. It takes you to an art deco jade colored haven. We had reservations and got right in. I love how comfy the chairs are. Our waitress brought us water and our drinks that we ordered quickly. There was a wonderful piano player singing while we were there. I liked her music. We got the Tokyo mule and Beverly blossom. Both were delicious. We got there at happy hour, so many of the items we tried were cheaper than the dinner rush. We ordered spicy tuna crisp and the wagu Gyoza. Both were absolutely delicious. We also ordered the diamond roll which was perfect. All the flavors were amazing. We ordered the mango mochi and meringue desserts to try out after. If you havnt been to Jade yet, you have to try it out. It's a great date night spot or even a girls night out spot. read more

Had an awesome time at Jade on a Saturday night celebrating my birthday with friends. Tried a variety of rolls, Nigiri, and appetizers. Everything was delicious and made to perfection at the same time as having artistic touches. Loved it. I wasn't expecting a sushi place in Beverly Hills to be so much fun. Our server was a lady from France. She was super sweet and very helpful. Drinks were on point and reasonably priced. Same with food, reasonably priced for the quality and attention to details. Loved how the sushi rolls and Nigiri's were light on rice without even needing to tell them. Obviously taylored to BH! Nigiri's were my favorite followed by the two roles, either Onyx or Ruby, but I can't remember which one was which in the photos. Diamond roll was pretty cool too on the looks, but I liked the other 2 rolls better in terms of taste. Music later in the evening was the cherry on top and I loved the EDM tracks that the DJ was playing. Such a cool vibe that I didn't want to leave!! They did a pretty cool birthday dessert for me. That was fun. Crowd was very decent and overall everything was more than five stars. Will want to come back really soon!!! read more

A solid 4/5 overall! We had a reservation for a Saturday evening at 6pm. Parking in the area was tough, we ended up parking across the street for a $15 flat fee (that's if you pay with cash, otherwise it's $20 with a credit card). Service was impeccable: 5/5 Atmosphere was good, minus some obnoxious influencers who kept taking pictures and videos and were talking loudly. I was also hoping for more French influence since that's how the restaurant was advertised (Japanese + French inspiration): 4/5 LOVED our Tokyo Mule and Yuzu Margarita: 5/5 Smashed cucumber salad was fire: 5/5 The rest of the food was 3/5: the 9-piece nigiri, hand rolls (toro, hamachi and spicy tuna) and A5 Wagyu tartare were good but nothing outstanding. I couldn't tell it was A5 Wagyu meat, I would've given it a 4 if it was just regular meat. Since it said "A5 Wagyu", I had higher expectations. The toasted bread that came with it, however, was so good we ordered some more! I don't know if I'll be back but I think it's still good spot to check out whether it's for a date, anniversary or you just want to enjoy some drinks and bites with your friends. read more

My experience at Jade was top tier! This review is way overdue. I came here back in July 2026 and enjoyed my food. I'll be the first to say that I'm not a big sushi eater, but my sushi rolls were pretty good. The ambiance is definitely a fun vibe. The the GJ waitress and bartenders kept the night fun and lively.

Went here for dinner on Saturday night. I was looking for a nice and lively ambiance with good sushi . This place definitely didn't disappoint. They had DJ and very nice music was playing in the background. We got there around 8 with reservation and were seated right away. I loved their menu. It had very unique items. We got the spicy tuna appetizer, the DIY hand roll and the jewelry box. All were nicely presented and very generous portions. Service was great and friendly. Everything was so delicious and fresh. These items were all we had and couldn't even finish the DIY. For dessert, we ordered the black sesame cream brûlée. (Could not taste black sesame that much but it was delicious) . They also gave us complementary mochi for my birthday occasion. I will definitely go back here. Structure Parking is available right next door and $5 flat fee. read more

What a hidden gem in Beverly Hills! First off, they have free parking (yes, free, for 2 hours!) which is basically unheard of around BH. It's $5 flat after 6pm. Also, wild! I was already impressed before walking in, but it only got better. The sushi was fresh and beautifully prepared, and the happy hour? Truly unbeatable. Great prices, generous portions, and top-tier quality. It was fresh fresh!! LOL. The staff were amazing, so warm and welcoming, and the vibe was relaxed but still chic. Special shoutout to the head chef Ronaldo. He saw us literally cheesy, whilst we watched him making the rolls and he introduced himself. I felt like a regular on my first visit. Whether you're popping in for happy hour or settling in for a full dinner, this place seriously delivers. I highly recommend getting the entire Happy Hour menu! It's around $100. Not too shabby right?! And you get to try all the goodies. My favorite roll was the Onyx and ruby. My parents are visiting in two months, can't wait to show this place off. read more

AMBIENCE: (5/5) - Gorgeous place that's perfect for a holiday such as Valentine's day. Very girly and floral so it's a great setting for a girl's night out too. - The ceiling lights up and twinkles, thought that was cute. SERVICE: (5/5) - Made reservations for Galentine's day and they had our table ready right away even though it was super busy and it's a small spot. - Food came at perfect timing and the courses were smoothly following one after another. FOOD/DRINKS: (4.5/5) - Amuse Bouche (5/5): Scallop cooked to perfection sitting on top of a yuzu mayo sauce that I could honestly dip anything in and eat straight. The picked ginger added a nice refreshing punch to the dish. - Sashimi Pizza (4/5): Nice coverage of sashimi so they did not skimp. Lost a star as the tostada didn't seem like it was very fresh or maybe pre-made? They made up for it with the truffle drizzle and the dollops of caviar on top. - Yellowfin Tuna Tataki (5/5): Solid for a tataki and they got me again with that yuzu truffle combo in the sauce. - Kakuni Braised Short Ribs (4/5): The meat melted to the bone and had just the perfect amount of fat ratio. A little on the saltier side, esp the bok choy. - Sesame Creme Brulee (5/5): First bite wasn't too mind blowing but this is a dish that grows on you. As you continue to endulge the sesame flavor start to come through more. It was also the first time I've had this flavor of creme brulee so points for the creativity. OVERVIEW: (4.5/5) - Overall the food was good but I do think it is a little over priced as the bill was similar to what I have paid for Michelin crowned restaurants. We did come during a holiday pre-fix menu so that might be why it would be more expensive. At least the food was solid. read more

What a disappointment. The social media posts must be for those who don't know Japanese cuisine. Service was ok. The ambience was meh, the food was sooo salty, and the sashimi not so fresh.

We got starbucks nearby and we decided to walk around Beverlyhills while finishing our drinks, and strolling around we saw this restaurant called "JADE BEVERLY HILLS" the decorations inside caught my eye, it's pretty so I told my son and husband that we might as well try their food since we were in the area. The food that I ordered that I knew my Husband and Son would enjoy are the Following: *WAGYU TARTARE *D.I.Y HANDROLL *WAGYU DON *CHIRASHI *SUMMER IN HAYAMA When we got seated I was impressed with all the different servers that brought our plates and drinks etc. They move FAST around. My drink, the SUMMER IN HAYAMA, came. It has RUM, PINEAPPLE, PANDAN, COCONUT, and LEMON. This was nice, smooth and fruity, I love it 'coz I can taste the Pineapple which is one of my favorites. After that everything came at the same time I ordered the DIY HANDROLL, I really enjoyed this plate, this is a sharable one. I got to make my own rolls, I just wish there was more Seaweed Wrapper or that I had the option to buy more of the wrappers 'coz we had so much stuffing left over, next time I will ask if I can order more wrappers, this DIY is a must to include in your order, it's delicious and fun to have. This DIY ROLL has YELLOW TAIL, SPICY SCALLOP, SPICY TUNA, and SNOW CRAB. It says Spicy, but it's tolerable, not too spicy at all. My Son's WAGYU DON for sure is Delicious 'coz he completely finished it, he said it was tasty and filling. My Husband's CHIRASHI was beautiful and fun to eat too, it has FISH, TAMAGO, UNI, and IKURA. This is also a delicious plate. The WAGYU TARTAR was okay. Their decor inside is pretty, the service is top notch, they know when you need something in your table, they are fast to come, and they are also fast to refill your drinks and get the plates you dont need anymore. Nice staff and clean place, nice vibe inside and good food. read more

Jade is a relatively new restaurant located in the heart of Beverly Hills that serves contemporary Japanese-inspired dishes. It's conveniently located next to a parking structure where they have free parking for two hours. Interestingly, it's located in a commercial building where you have to go across the lobby to get to the restrooms. We made a reservation ahead of time which I recommend doing. WAGYU TARTARE ($29) - the pickled onions added brightness and balance but I felt like it needed a sauce or something else. 3.5/5 SPICY TUNA CRISP ($22) - this reminded me of a spicy tuna on crispy rice but instead of rice it was crispy nori. 4/5 HAMACHI CRUDO ($26) - I loved the chili crisp and the citrus added a nice brightness to the dish. Out of everything we ordered this was my favorite dish. 5/5 JEWELRY BOX CHIRASHI ($42) - I liked the presentation with all the toppings spread out but I was indifferent with the gold flakes. My favorites were the uni and the tuna. 4/5 BLACK COD MISO ($?) - this was one of their specials at the time. The cod was tender and we could really taste the miso. However, the portions could've been bigger. 4/5 ONYX ROLL ($25) - there was good unagi flavor and we could taste some but not a lot of imitation crab. 3.5/5 For drinks, the tenkiame 2.0 ($22) which was refreshing and reminded me of a penicillin with the ginger and lemon. The yuzu margarita ($21) was tart and as its name suggested. The summer in hayama ($24) was sweet, coconut-y, and reminded me of a tiki-style drink. Overall the food was decent but the interior was captivating and the vibes are what you're paying for. read more

Ambiance: highlight of this place. Unique and very beautiful and elegant. Definitely a moody place that sets the perfect vibe for date night or a girls night Drinks: Drinks were a bit above average. The presentation of drinks were good with unique garnishbut for $24 cocktails you need to bring the craftsmanship for LAs finest. The liquor ratio overpowered the flavors. Food: this is where I docked stars. I am a fine dining and Japanese cuisine snob. Appetizers were flavorful but the roles and main dishes were a bit above average. The presentation was beautiful but didn't live up to LA culinary expectations. Service: the server was nice and prompt. Made recommendations for their best entrees Overall impression: it's a nice place for vibes, better to stick to a glass of wine and a few of their popular appetizers but wouldn't recommend coming to satisfy the appetite read more
