    Best Sushi In A.V.! The fish quality is great! The albacore is deeeelish! Updating review and this place is better than Nobu and any other place I have been to.

    Sushi ~ Octopus, Halibut, Squid, Aberjack and Albacore

    First time here and it did not disappoint. The restaurant is small and quaint with traditional yet minimal Japanese decor. The two servers/waitresses were welcoming and attentive. I ordered the dinner #9. Sushi & Sashimi Albacore, Eel, White Fish, and Scallop Sushi. Plus Tuna, Yellowtail Salmon Sashimi and a side of miso soup and salad (next time I'm doubling up on the miso). Also ordered Octopus, squid, halibut and Amberjack sushi, the broiled Chilean sea bass marinated in miso paste (sorry no pic I devoured that hot bass) and two side orders of their miso soup to go. I went on a rainy Saturday at opening, so it wasnt packed yet. Left happy, belly full and warm (thanks to their delicious miso soup) and hot green tea. Looking forward to Tuesday when they're open again!

    My bestfriend and I are on a mission to go on more sushi dates, and Shogun is definitely a hidden gem! After hearing so much about it over the years, we finally had the chance to try it out. We didn't have a reservation, but our waitress was fantastic and quickly found us a table for two. To kick things off, we enjoyed two glasses of Plum Wine and baked mussels, which were absolutely delicious. We're big fans of Nigiri, so we decided on Tuna, Yellowtail, and Salmon. The fish was incredibly fresh and flavorful - each bite was a delight. Our bestie date night was a total success, and we can't wait to return. Thank you again, Shogun, for such a great experience! 02.08.2025

    Really great sushi/ sashimi spot. I can tell the fish and produce are of great quality. Took myself, my daughter and my niece and they had great options for the kids. Felt like I was dining in someone's home but in a very good way. The tall server she took care of us and you can tell they take pride in their work. Will be back regularly

    Premium Sakè (sak keh) pairs well w/ Japanese food at Shōgun Sushi January 2022
    Gary I.

    Shōgun Sushi may be the only place where you can get traditional, pristine Japanese Sushi stocked with premium quality fish between Santa Clarita & Reno along the CA Hwy 14 & US 395 axis.  I went to Shōgun in January 2022 and so sorry to hear that Chef Masa owner and pater familias passed away closing his restaurant. Palmdale has lost a truly iconic Japanese culinary outpost. No " county fair clown" Sushi using Sriracha, mayonnaise, "eel sauce" being poured on at every turn to cover up the poor, cheap quality fish being used.  Therefore, expect to pay way more for having the privilege of experiencing the fine, subtle flavours of high end seafood. However, the Sushi portions here are huge to create better quality/price compared to most traditional Sushi in Los Ángeles.   0) Tempura Moriawasè:  String beans Japanese Kabocha  Sweet Potato Broccoli Asparagus Èbi Sushi: 1) Hiramè: Clean, soft, white meat. Ordered w/ green Shiso leaf under the Halibut   2) Tai: Meaty, more sweet, oceanic Umami Ordered w/ green Shiso leaf under the Snapper.   3) Hotatè & Ikura:  Luscious combination of plush, sweet sea kissed scallops topped with salty, fatty, pleasantly fishy salmon roe garnished w/ green Shiso leaf resting on rice vinegared Sushi rice surrounded by a belt of black Nori seaweed paper. A truly sumptuous combination.  Photo Sushi Dragon 2019-5-21  4) Ōtoro Tekka Maki:  Simple roll of Sushi rice wrapped by black Nori sheet. However, this was an exercise in simple yet sybaritic luxury.  The ultra fatty Hon Maguro/bluefin tuna melting at human body temperature in your mouth along w/ a meaty, aged blood minerality rivaled A5 Wagyū (wah ghee yu) which at a minimum is $20/oz.   0-4a)  Kijūrō Tokubetsu Honjōzō Sakè (sah keh):  Neutral bouquet, light balsa wood fragrance Surprisingly strong strawberry, touch of white chocolate, dry, astringent, woody  Extra long lasting strawberry finish. Dry astringency to refresh the palate.  There are 6 other Sakè (sah keh) choices as shown in my photos. Sakè pairs exceptionally well w/ Japanese cuisine since they evolved together for almost 3,000 years.   Interior of Sushi Shōgun is traditionally Japanese w/ warm, wood accents. Sushi Master is a man of few words. The waitresses do their best to accommodate customers.  Due to the Corona pandemic, Sushi bar was closed off. Table dining only.  4 stars

    Assorted tempura (shrimp and veggies)

    Very quick service and friendly staff. On the pricier side compared to other restaurants in Palmdale.

    Sushi with miso glazed salmon. The salad and cup of rice was a nice touch.

This bright restaurant certainly fit that description! We were impressed by the Hawaiian feel and decor right from the start. We were welcomed so warmly by the young manager and his staff. He explained the menu and some of the options and also that Thursday was a discount day if you ordered a dish that featured chicken as the main protein, because it was Thursday. My partner chose a chicken bowl on a bed of coconut rice (12.99) and I chose the combination chicken breast and shredded luau pork plate (17.99) also with coconut rice, and a delightful mix of sautéed broccoli florets, diced zucchini, onion, and finally shredded carrots. There were four accompanying sauces to sample. I liked a combination of the spicy teriyaki with the pineapple teriyaki. The Sriracha was too hot for me because I'm a wimp when it comes to hot things, and I just didn't love their peanut sauce very much. I think the recipe could be reworked. But I liked that they offered peanut sauce as an option! They also served us a tasty Hawaiian style macaroni salad made with cavatappi pasta. Portions were large, and I love their presentation for dining in, especially the angled bowls. Even their take-home was in high-quality reusable plastic containers , showing the care they gave for even the smaller details. Dessert options include an individual pineapple upside down cake (4.99) and choice of large size chocolate chunk or salted caramel cookies (2.99). There was a serve yourself drink station. Because my partner had the chicken protein he was gifted a free drink. They have locations also in Simi Valley and in Ventura city. The Palmdale location has been opened already for 17 years! We plan to come back here again for certain the next time we're in Palmdale. Plenty of free parking as it's part of a large shopping area, but easily seen from the street. So in short, this was a great find!

    We go here often. The food is always fresh, and the portions are a good size. I usually get the…read morechicken or pork bowl with lots of vegetables instead of the rice or noodles. My husband likes the pork bowl with vegetables and noodles. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

The food quality is spectacular! I always get the Baracoa Cubano sandwich and it never disappoints. The ingredients are fresh and organic with each dish I've ordered. Since I have allergies to ingredients used to preserve frozen food, it's always been so hard finding a restaurant with a menu that doesn't cause me issues--and Baracoa has never compromised with their ingredients! The organic quality of their food is something you'll taste on your first bite. And finally--the service is impeccable and I have yet to see such excellent hospitality at any restaurant I've visited, even in Los Angeles! The waiters are always kind, attentive, and energetic with their behavior and service. It's very easy to tell they love the work they do and it shows in their work ethic. In addition to that, the managers are always making sure we're having an excellent night and have transformed it to a level of service we've never seen! My parents and I went a week ago and talked to Daniel the Manager about how much we missed a Piña Colada from a closed restaurant which would make it in the pineapple itself--and he said if we promised to be there in a week he's make it himself. We came on Friday, and the joy that my family felt was palpable when Daniel came out with the drinks we've wished for years now since that restaurant closed! Honestly, I've never heard of someone caring for their guests so much to do that--truly everyone should visit this establishment and experience true fine dining. I don't think I'll ever eat anywhere else for a special occasion ever again.

All of their empanadas are great and you can get just one or a bunch. We often get some to take home. The Papas Rellenas is so good and so nicely priced. It is two mashed potato balls stuffed with Cuban picadillo, then breaded and fried to perfection. I love potatoes so I love to get this. We also take these home. They heat up so well. The service is great and they are very friendly. Parking is easy and there is not usually a wait. I am not sure if they take reservations, so call them and check.
