Stumbled upon this place as we were looking for sushi and we were pleasantly surprised by how lucky we got. This place was amazing and the staff was so friendly. We were the only people in the restaurant at the time so we got everything pretty quickly and each roll was so good. I almost forgot my shopping bag and the staff was so kind they saw it and ran after me in the parking lot to give me my bag- which I highly appreciated! Definitely recommend and will keep this place in mind to visit again.

SO SO SO SOOOO SURPRISED that this place isnt popping!!! Food was amazing!!! at a regular sushi place they give u 8 rolls, but this place gives u TEN !!! like um hi no skinny queens here. Service was great, waitress was super kind & made sure we had everything we needed. The sushi chefs were asking us how our food was. *the ONLY downside is that its in a small plaza with barely any parking but like the food is so good u kinda just have to sacrifice ur legs and park far and walk. other than that, 10/10 would come again thank u

Sexy Lady Roll

Ordered 4 rolls and they only gave 1 side of ginger, no soy sauce, no chopsticks. They are so cheap. If a place is cheap with that stuff you know they are cheap with fish. Probably why the spicy tuna is so spicy. I won't be eating here anymore.

Chicken Gyoza Miso Soup

BEST SUSHI EVERRRRR!!! We got the dragon ball roll, six flags roll and the sexy lady roll!!! 10/10!!!!!! Will be coming again

Yellowtail Carpaccio

As a Japanese person, I'm super picky about sushi but this spot is truly amazing. Such great quality fish and ingredients for a reasonable price, and I absolutely love the homey vibes. They also have an extensive menu. I LOVE!

Crispy Rice
Remy H.

Crispy rice with spicy tuna was as expected and had a nice presentation. However, the miso soup was flavorless and not worth $5 per serving.

Carpaccio so good
Van D.

My favorite sushi in West Hollywood. Fast service. Cool music. But the food is the best

the staff here are so friendly, speedy, and enhance the welcoming environment of Kaijin! I'm picky with my sushi and could tell it was very fresh and made with care. the prices are also wallet friendly, and there's even a parking lot?! I want to gatekeep this place, but really want them to succeed! Trust this review and head over to your new favorite sushi stop :)

Service was quick and the server was attentive. Moved the salmón sashimi. It was smooth, fresh and delicious. Don't expect lots of parking or space. Vegan options and sale can be ordered from a neighboring vendor yet brought to you.

I was so impressed with the sushi rolls here!! Super huge and very reasonably priced. The place was clean and the service was exceptional. Very casual place with plenty of free parking.

Amazinggggggg. Chefs. Waitress. Owners. All so amazing! Feels like home. We recently moved near by, not only the sushi is amazing but the price is awesome. My wife really enjoys the Bento boxes here. The sushi nigiri were all dressed to perfection! Almost like Omakase style! Can't wait to try the Omakase they have here!

absolutely 10/10 the lemon butter ramen and fried rice. the food is so fresh and service is amazingread more

So... I'm a bit lactose intolerant. This place did NOT hurt the tummy…read more A friend invited me here. I was afraid that everything was going to be extremely heavy, like French cuisine can be with all the cheese and butter. But I ordered the Combo of the Lemon Butter Chicken Ramen and a side of the Miso Teri Bowl (in case the ramen would be too much for me), and I was blown away by both dishes. The Lemon Butter is NOT heavy at all. It felt light and savory, but had a depth of flavor that's hard to identify because this is a dish I have never had anywhere else before. I can see why it's the most popular item on the menu. I took the side of Miso Teri Bowl home for dinner as the ramen was filling enough. There's a hint of wasabi in the dressing they drizzle over the shredded green onions that elevate this dish from other Teriyaki Chicken bowls I've had. Just DELICIOUS. I'd come back to Tonsho just for this rice bowl. My friend got the Dan Dan Ramen which he said blew his mind. He was surprised by the lightness of the broth, which is unlike the Chinese Dan Dan which is usually made of heavy creamy sesame paste. He actually drank most of the broth, and didn't feel like he was cheating on his diet. Additionally, the design of the restaurant, from the layout to the choice of bowls and utensils reminded me of a certain 2-Michelin Star restaurant in Culver City. The service was bar none. The waitress was attentive and thoughtful, even getting us a glass of water after we had been sitting there for another hour after paying our check. We never felt rushed or pushed out. Five stars, period. Coming back for more.

We came here for dinner before a show at the Largo at the Coronet theater (3 doors down), not…read moreknowing anything about it. What a lucky find! At 6pm, we were only 1 of 2 parties; by 7:30pm, all the inside & outdoor patio tables were filled except for a couple. A large party made the indoor atmosphere pretty loud, but after they left it was easy to have audible conversation. Several people came in to pick up to go orders while we were there. Service was really warm, food came out so fast & everything was DELISH: Beef bowl - marbled beef cooked w/onions on rice. So tender & flavorful! Spicy tuna bowl - spicy tuna over rice, with a wasabi ponzu sauce. Yum! Albacore hand roll - fresh & buttery Eel hand roll - melt in your mouth delicious We were there early so it was easy to find parking at a meter. I can see why they get such consistently great reviews! I'll be back to try their yummy looking udon dishes. Highly recommend!!

Stopped by before a show at Largo, and there were only four other people dining at the time…read more Service was friendly. I ordered a diet coke, two orders of the eel sushi (each order comes with only two pieces!). I didn't feel four pieces of eel sushi was good value for $16. The hand rolls were $6 a piece which were smaller than the average hand rolls. The eel had great flavor, but the spicy tuna was off. Oh how I wish I didn't have to walk through the kitchen to get to the restrooms. I didn't enjoy seeing the behind the scenes of it all. And the bathrooms need to be cleaned better, especially around the base of the toilets. They smelled awful. I hate to say this, but I definitely wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Ordered pick-up before heading home after a long day at work. Before anything I'd like to say…read moreImmaculate customer service. After a long horrible Monday I had no energy to deal with bad energy. I knew I arrived a little too soon and needed to wait. I walked in and sat down, the waitress asked if i was picking an online order and just over all took care of me from the utensils to the amount of ginger i needed. After that they handed me my order and i was out that door to sit in my car and enjoy my sushi before the 1 hour + traffic . I was praying for it to be really good sushi! And let me tell you it was fresh ! And very very enjoyable! Really good sushi ! And as an LA native it's hard to find good sushi places with good quality! Will be coming back! 10/10

We stopped by Kinari Aburi Sushi after the Stranger Things x CicLAvia event since it was right…read morearound the corner from the fourth hub on Fairfax. We already had good street parking nearby, so we just walked over. Because it's on Fairfax near Melrose, parking definitely depends on the time and day -- it can get tricky in this area. We didn't notice any signs for parking in the back, so street parking might be your best bet. Food: We ordered three items, and everything we tried was solid, but the standout for us was the creamy ramen. We shared a bowl, but honestly, I would've happily eaten a whole one by myself if I had known how good it was. The prices were pretty reasonable for the area, and portion sizes felt fair. Service: The staff was friendly. Service was smooth, and our food came out in good time. Overall: A nice casual spot for sushi and ramen in the Fairfax/Melrose area. Good food, friendly service, and decent prices. I'd definitely come back, especially for that ramen.
