Amazing Ramen! The flavor is top notch. Great staff and service. A gem of the valley

My staff and I eat here at least once a week as we work across the street. Their combos are always fresh tasty and fulfill our sushi cravings. Great option for ToGo Sushi. They have been around for many years so clearly they're doing something right. Service is quick. I often call for pick up and it's ready instantly. Not much ambiance for dine in, but comfortable if you want to eat there and there's always plenty of space. Order online directly from their website it's very user-friendly. read more

I don't eat fish but I am crazy for avocado rolls! The craving hit right as I was driving by Sushi Don- it was fate. I got two avocado rolls and some edamame. The portions were great, I got two meals out of my order. Love that! The sushi was real good. Tasted very fresh and came with soy sauce and wasabi, but no ginger. The edamame wasn't as fresh, falling apart and such, but still tasted alright. My order was ready literally within minutes after ordering and the staff were friendly. The togo packaging was super cute too! Overall a great and delicious experience. I'll be back! read more

A solid spot if you're craving Japanese food, tucked away in a strip mall in Valley Village. The baked salmon Donburi, baked lobster roll, and tempura shrimp roll are a must-try. Flavorful, and satisfying every time. read more

Just ok. Subpar. They are ridiculously overpriced for what you get! Sushi was very bland and barely called sushi. We purchased the $39 platter. It was pathetic. And when you eat in, they are super cheap with the plates. I'm pretty sure they are using the foam ones from 99 cent stores! Won't be coming back here as it's really not worth it. At all. read more

This is my all time favorite sushi spot. Don't get me wrong I am all about all you can eat sushi but this place just gets me every time. I could never decide between the combo B and the poke bowl so "porque no los dos" one would say. Combo B for me looks like a shrimp tempura roll, the 5 pc of sushi, and miso soup. Now I have some kind of delicious ocd where the best is saved for last. While it's always hard to decide which one is the best I have to eat a in a circle one piece at a time. Sometimes I mix it up in the middle but 100% yellow tail sushi is always the last bite. Something about this one specifically just gives a happy ending in my mouth. This is the best spot in the valley no cap. The service is great too! I go so often and call in and the guy recognizes my voice and just knows what I'm there for. Going back to the poke- it isn't a build your own but it's the best damn regular- how you're supposed to eat- poke- poke. So freakin good. The ambiance is so cute I love the little characters they have on a shelf! So cute read more

I've been coming here for as long as I can remember because I grew up close by and it is easily my go-to for affordable, delicious sushi in the valley. Everyone who works here is so kind, Sushi Don will always hold a special place in my heart!!! A true gem of this neighborhood community the combo B will ALWAYS do me right read more

Excellent fresh sushi. Best spicy tuna crispy rice in town. Love everyone who works here too.

Sushi Don is the best quick sushi in the Valley hands down. We go there a lot when we have a craving, because their quality is so great - so fresh and tasty. We have never had a bad experience there. My sushi loving 19 year old loves going there, and they've eaten a ton of sushi. Seriously, it never fails to please and be just delicious. The service is always top notch as well. Couldn't ask for more. It's not really a place you go to for ambiance, but it's always clean and well cared for, so if you want to sit in and have lunch it's great. I love small spots like this, it's a hidden gem. read more

The food was excellent. The fish tastes really fresh. And it was ready when they said it would be.

Sad to say, but shrinkflation has arrived at Sushi Don. Not only have prices gone up quite a bit after Covid, but the size of their bowls and pieces of sushi have shrunk to miniature proportions. Each sushi roll in my combo A was the size of a pinky finger. The bowl had pathetically small pieces of fish as well. Seriously? After eating here for many years (starting when combo A was well under $20 and the portions were normal) I can no longer go out of my way to bring my family here. I can stomach higher prices, since everyone is jacking-up their prices, but I cannot accept both higher prices AND much smaller portions. read more

Beware. Food Poisoning. They serve low quality fish and you can tell from sight alone.

Spicy tuna roll and crab roll, 2 basic rolls. Rice is dry and hard, and color of tuna is really strange, almost pink. Found a crab shell in the crab roll. $9 each, won't be coming back. read more

Super unimpressed with Sushi Don and I am not surprised after having a 2 star lunch at the main sushi restaurant on Riverside Drive in Studio City-ish. This is strictly fast food sushi and the portions are very small and it's not inexpensive. It was formerly owned by a better sushi chain (Sushi Sasabune) so don't be misled. My bestie and I shared the sushi combo and miso soup. 2 stars because we lived to tell the tale. read more

Sushi Don - Specials - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valley Village, California

I've known the owner for over 20 years. I've seen the prices increase over but the food is always great!

With their Sasabune connection, I expected Sushi Don to be something special. Unfortunately, it wasn't. The strip mall location is nothing to write home about, but plenty of unassuming places have awesome sushi in LA. For the prices, I expected a lot better experience. I ordered four rolls, but one that I ordered was wrong (I ordered Salmon Skin Roll, but they sent baked salmon instead). It was fine, but again, I expected more. Portions were fine, but none of the rolls were cut evenly, we were served in disposable trays, even though we were dining in. If the price was half of what it is, I would come back, but the experience wasn't worth splurging on, when there are so many good inexpensive places close by. read more

During Covid, this has been my go to cheap sushi fix. For $25 out the door, you can get a nice set dinner with a sashimi rice bowl, five piece assortment, and miso, all packed and ready when you arrive. Fish is flavorful and everything hits the spot, though if you are looking for creativity or high end items, look elsewhere. It's a big step up over supermarket sushi at the same price. read more

I have been coming here for 15 years at least. As previous reviews have noted there prices have indeed gotten out of hand. I decided to put that aside and come in today for a quick meal. Predictably it was literally empty. I asked one question about the menu and the gentleman that was working was condescending and beyond rude. Asking me if I know the difference between nigiri and sashimi. I was asking where the hand roll menu was. Unbelievable. He just lost his only sale of the day. It pains me to write bad reviews, but when it's required I feel I must. read more

Quick and simple update review. I was in the neighborhood so decided to grab a quick sushi fix at Sushi Don. I've been here a serval times but haven't been back for awhile. I'm not sure if the owner have changed but the sushi have certainly did. ( Still the same owner who run Sasabune) FOOD: I ordered the combo A. That comes with a bowl of any fish you choose( I got the tuna) and five pcs of nigiri. First of let's talk about tuna don bowl. This was one pathetic tuna bowl. How cheap do you have to be to serve paper thin tuna sashimi. You can actually see through the tuna so basically this was just a bowl of rice. Second your nigiri was a joke as well. All rice and paper thin cuts of fish once again. I'm not that type of person that likes to give negative reviews, but if you're charging $17 for mostly all rice. Yes you deserve a bad review. Sorry Sushi Don. read more

Been coming here for years but the past few times the quality has been lacking. Today I ordered and they are clearly using leftover rice from the weekend as it was gummy and cold. They also charged me $1 because on the 5 piece sushi I asked for no salmon but said they could sub any other fish. Odd because it wasn't an upgrade. read more

It is in a strip mall. The restaurant inside is very basic. I got the rainbow roll and a yellowtail sushi. The rainbow was like $18. There were quite a bit of avocado on the top. I expected to have more fish for how much I paid. read more

There's no way you'll find better quality for the price in la. Quality of fish is on par with the places you'd be spending major dollar on anywhere else. The party tray is our go to with sushi combo b but honestly I'd rather do two trays because debauchery. read more

Sushi Don - Party trays = unbeatable - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valley Village, California

For $14, I expected more than a pile of lettuce for my sashimi salad. It looked like it was about 3oz or less. I took a look at the other pics of the sashimi salads on this page and laughed. DON'T let the close up pics of the salads fool you! The slices of sashimi were actually very thin, small slices, but anything up close in a photo looks big. I haven't tried much of their other food, so can't comment on that. I actually came here years ago and ordered the same thing, and got the same results. However, I wanted to give this place another try. Guess some things never change. read more

Sushi Don - Sashimi salad mixed fish - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valley Village, California

How does this place even have 4 stars? This has to be the worst restaurant ive ever gotten food from. This was beyond disappointing. First off, the eel from eel donburi taste REALLY fishy and disgusting. I almost yacked. The chirashi bowl is not what I expected. Thin pieces of fish .. what they call sashimi.. and like 4 pieces of it with a whole ton of rice .. i didnt even eat any of it and it all went in the trash because you can tell what type of quality food this is. If i could, i would give this place ZERO stars. Too bad there's no option for that. During covid times, i really try to order out and help out these shops but if their quality and service is like this, they shouldn't even be in business. I really hope i dont get sick from the few bites i had from this place read more

So my sister has been raving about this place for years, so here I am. Located in a large strip mall on the corner of Laurel Canyon and Riverside Dr. Parking is a nightmare. There are many great businesses, so it's always jammed. But once you get that spot, you're in! They have a large selection & daily specials. You order at the counter. Then sit down and they'll bring your order to the table when it's ready. The staff was extremely friendly. Our rolls came out in a timely manner. We had blue crab rolls and California rolls. The price was reasonable and the rolls were delicious! It was a quick stop but I'm impressed. We will be back when we have a little more time to try a variety. Bonus: they are open all day, unlike many Japanese restaurants that close from 2-5. read more

Love this place :) the sushi is high quality and the owner is an awesome chef. I first learned about this place from their other location , so happy this is near me since I moved. Salmon belly is soooo yummy. Grateful to have high quality available in this humble place. Many people do carry out orders which is nice because I like places that I don't have to wait in line forever to sit for good food :) Enjoy! read more

Loved this hidden gem! The sushi was fresh and delicious. I will definitively be back and recommend 5/5. read more

The food was super good. I highly recommend. Street parking is hit or miss so keep that in mind.

It's a fast food style and quality restaurant. If you want to enjoy the food, take out or find another one. Plus, they don't have bathroom for the customers. read more

Authentic Japanese speaking employees and sushi chefs here. Very friendly even though I had a strange alteration (due to me being pregnant). The price is normal, not super cheap. It's a casual comfortable place inside with around 6 two tops and 2 four tops. I enjoyed the crispy rice with unagi (surcharge for this) but the salmon hand roll was just ok. The DRAGON ROLL was delicious! read more

I just moved into my new place and went exploring in the area. Found this gem tucked into a strip mall no more then a quarter mile away! A very friendly young man was working at the cash register. He recommended the Combination B. 5 pieces of sushi, 1 hand roll, and a bowl of miso soup. All of that was $14, and it was all VERY fresh and good. I got the blue crab hand roll expecting it to be sub par. This is based on the fact I have paid $14 for JUST a hand roll before. Do not let the price fool you - this hand roll is on point! The salmon sushi was probably my favorite bite of the meal. The miso soup was killer. I can't wait to come back here. read more

Good things come in small packages right? Well that quote definitely applies here cuz it is small. Don't know if it was mentioned in previous reviews but this is not your normal sushi spot where you continue to order things on the menu while you are dining, you know just in case you're still hungry. Instead place you order at the counter, pay, and take a seat. Philip G. and I each got our own Combo B $11.95 - Salmon Skin Handroll, miso soup, 1pc Tuna, Yellowtail, Salmon, 2pc Albacore, and ordered a blue crab roll to share. It kinda felt a little weird paying that much at a spot set up like this, but the quality of the fish & crab we tried was pretty good. Seems like this is more of a to-go place just because the store itelf is really small and they don't have bathrooms for patrons. I did noticed that their rice was a little warm which you don't get at many sushi spots, only some of the pricier/nicer places do this. And after Philip g. raved at how much better it was to have sushi on top of warmed rice I knew I needed to try it for myself, which led us to Sushi Don. If you're in the area check them out, but don't come in with 15+ people because the tables are really small and if you do, you'll be talking about half if not all of the tables. *Make sure to check their website for their specials and combos, it'll help your wallet! read more

I made a stop at the UPS store and noticed this place so I decided to check it out, as soon as I walked in I noticed how pricey their items were for what it was. I took a risk and ordered a bowl and when I got home to eat it I was surprised it was a huge bowl of rice and very few, thin pieces of salmon. Mediocre at best. Definitely not worth the price. read more
