The customer service at this location has the leak on down the drain. Can you believe they have no dessert. We literally spoke to the manager and he said they have not had ice cream here since Covid now I'm a logical person and I have no idea what Covid has to do with ice cream if ice cream increases the chance of Covid shouldn't Baskin Robbins be closed? Horrible customer service speaking to the manager is like speak into the wall read more

What a horrible place. Arrive and get told that there is only seating available in the bar area. That's literally 1/8th if the restaurant. We sit for 30 minutes and nothing opens up. Being late, we decide to stick it out. THEN YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED. People start walking in off the street and getting seated in the dining area. I ask the manager what's up and suddenly there is dining room seating available! We sit, and have been for the last 20 minutes with absolutely no one to walk up. You say to yourself "why would you stay" well it's 10:41 and almost nothing is open. Table that was sat literally 2 minutes before us already has food on the table! The table that was just sat (20 mins into our seating) already has drinks on the table. This is literally the wildest experience I have ever had. Who would have thought in 2018 with these rent prices in Burbank they could afford to provide this horrible service. read more

I have been to Wokcano 2 x . I had a great meal and so did everyone in my party. They had such a wonderful variety of Asian and Japanese Cusine. I love the sushi, my daughter likes chicken teriyaki. We ate outside, such a cool atmosphere . read more

Worst garlic noodles I have ever tried! Dry, tasteless and way overpriced. Added shrimps and ended up paying $22! Only ate the shrimps had to throw away the dry noodles. Waste of money not worth the price. read more

This is a place that I've been eating for two year every Friday or Thursday, and my review is overdue. They treat you here like a friend here, know what you doing and eat. And the food is so good!!!. HAPPY HOUR PRICES ARE UNBEATABLE! If I could give them 10 stars I would. read more

Came in for happy hour with a party of 4. My bf and I shared a plate of garlic noodles (not on HH menu), smoky sunset roll, and honey walnut shrimp. The garlic noodles came in a large portion which made up for the $12 price tag. The smoky sunset roll was our favorite part about happy hour. It was perfectly fried with tempura batter with a dash of cream cheese. It was not on the actual menu but on the HH menu. I'm glad we decided to try it! You also only get 6 pieces of shrimp for the HH price, but luckily the garlic noodles was able to fill us up the rest of the way. I'd return for happy hour. read more

Wokcano - Sushi Bars Near Me - Burbank, California

My experience started when I first walked in on the day of Sunday, May 13 at 10 PM. Right when we walked in, all three hostess just stood there and did not say a word. My friend and I actually had to greet THEM and tell them it is for a party of 2. One of the girls with glasses straight up just asked us, "Well, where do you wanna sit?!" Feeling very uncomfortable with what was happening, we just walked passed them and headed straight to the bar instead. Seemed a Little understaffed today considering we had to wait almost 15 minutes until we saw our server. After meeting our server, I immediately explained what happened at the front and he was apologetic about it. He checked in with us the best he could, and luckily our food came quickly, but tasted just okay. Even at the end of our dinner, no one acknowledged our leaving after what was already a bad experience. Needless to say, I will not be returning. read more

First night in Burbank, want to get my week off to a good start so I might as well try a well rated place. Turns out they have earned their stars! This place is phenomenal! Wait staff is polite and prompt, food taste amazing! I had the Spicy Maki dinner and a Wokcano Pear drink. (People watching is pretty good from here too! ) read more

Wokcano - Wokcano Pear, Very tasty!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Burbank, California

Great food, Great atmosphere, and excellent service especially by our sever Shane. Excellent service. Two thumbs up. Highly recommended.

I came in to Wockano with 3 other friends and we had a wonderful experience. John was our server and he was beyond amazing. He was very social with us and provided efficient service as well. Frank, the manager stopped by twice to check on us as well and was extremely nice and added even more to the experience. I definitely recommend coming here for great food, drinks, and service. read more

If there was an option for 0 stars, I would select that option!!!!! This place is HORRIBLE!!!! They stole my money. The bill was $340 I was gona leave a good tip, I asked them to bring me my change back so I can decide to leave a tip, they literally didn't bring my change back. I asked to see a manager, he said that's our policy!! IVE NEVER BEEN TO A PLACE LIKE THIS IN MY LIFEEEEE. Suggested tip was $55 but they didn't allow my to leave it! But just took my money! What if I was poor and only had $40 or $30 to leave for tip? (That's not the case but what if it was!) They always do this! He claimed that I was told in the beginning but I wasn't told!!!! He said because we're a party of 10 that's why they did that!!! WTFFF. They've don't this same thing even when me and my 2 friend me went! (And that's 3 people) NASTY MANAGER. NASTY PLACE! read more

There is absolutely no reason to go here. The food is mediocre. The drinks are just okay. The whole place seems like a hangout for somebody who just wants to get drunk. Lesson learned. read more

Food was just okay - tons of sodium. Service was TERRIBLE. I can't stand people who go into the service industry and treat people like they are annoyed at their very existence. Go somewhere with better people. read more

My friend and I both got food poisoning from ordering takeout last night. We ordered several entrees and our stomachs were already bubbling within 30mins of eating. The filet mignon entree was dry & chewy, and tasted like beef jerky. The wonton soup was filled to the very top so when I opened it, the steaming hot soup poured out and nearly burned my fingers if I wasn't so careful (no caution or "hot" warning on the container). We threw away over $130+ worth of food. What a waste and we even over-ordered to simply support the restaurant. Never again will I make the same mistake with Wokcano - I'd have better luck with fast food. read more

I absolutely love this place!! The food is bomb af!! I usually order out from this place and they do a great job! Seriously everything is made with the highest quality products and everybody there is cool af. I highly recommend everyone to check this place out if you are in the mood for some delicious Asian fusion cuisine! read more

For this neighborhood this is pretty good and a nice change from PF Changs. But it's not as slick in operations as PFs, and I haven't had anything as good as the sea bass that PF's does... But this review is about Wokcano. Nice decor, and last time I came with work there was a very competent and funny waitress, so lots of stars for that! The food was pretty good - a portuguese/singaporean chicken style curry was a bit bland, but the fried rice and noodles were better than average. read more

And let me clarify: I'm giving four stars to Wokano's happy hour. 4-7pm Sunday through Thursday give you 1/2 price draft beers and well drinks, and very nicely priced appetizers that are actually quite large in portion size (and if you'll read other reviews, Wokano is not known for good prices and generous portions). Only good in the lounge area, though, so belly-up to the bar and order a draft beer and a shrimp tempura roll and get out for under $10. In regards to the regular restaurant menu and service...pfffft...I'll pass. read more

I've been to other Wokcano locations and this one seems one of the better locations. Attended a mixer and had complimentary appetizers and beverages. I thought everything was pretty good. I had the tempura veggies, different rolls, fresh tuna, spicy tuna in a martini glass, lettuce wraps, fried dumplings and chicken wings which I think was teriyaki. This needed more sauce or at least dipping sauce on the side for the wings. I'd say it was good. The restaurant itself is modern and dim, i mean really dim until your eyes adjust. We had a private room towards the back and that had more light than the rest of the restaurant. Ample parking across the way in the public lot. I easily found parking on the street. The bar area (alcohol) had a sushi bar feel to it (well obviously). I'd go back during happy hour to check out the deals. read more

Dined 3/21/12 W): Kick out the style and bring on the substance! A friend and I had just finished watching a special 70th anniversary one-night screening engagement of "Casablanca" at the local AMC 16 in Burbank, when we looked at each other knowing what was on each ether's mind..."let's get something to eat!" Neither of us had sushi recently, so the we had a nice walk down to Wokcano on San Fernando Rd. I'd never been to this location before (directly across the street from the Gordon Birsch), and we knew they're open late. It was around 10pm when we finally arrived and the place was pretty empty except for two separate couples. We were seated quickly by our young waiter, Brett, and he was ready to take out order (must have been a really slow night). We needed to deliberate over the menu so he started us off with water. I ended up ordering a Guinness on tap (still trying to carry on the St. Patty's vibe from the past weekend [$6.00]), and we shared the Truffle Edamame ($6.00), Crunchy Roll ($11.00), Spicy Crabmeat Tempura Roll ($11.00), and some kind of chocolate & pistachio dessert ($8.00). What can I say about a perfectly poured/tapped Guinness except, Yes, please!" A hefty bowl of Truffle Edamame came out with the scent of glorious garlic trapped in the steam that was being emitted. This was a good call by my friend whose had it before. Man, you can seriously eat the entire edamame (pod and all!) with each one so soft and flavorful inside and out! I don't know if I can have standard edamame ever again. We polished off more than half the endamames before our two sushi rolls came out in all their fanciful glory. Each one was cut into eight pieces (pretty standard), but I have to admit, I was a bit disappointed in the overall portion size. Nevertheless, each was tasty, freshly prepared, and hit the spot...albeit, uninspired at best. Once the last cut roll piece and edamame was downed, the dessert came out. The waiter described it as the Hostess snowball snack cake, but chocolate instead. He wasn't kidding! My friend even went further and described it as a "boob with a green nipple" (crushed pistachio placed on top). Ummm, sure, and I planned on feeding on it! Again, I was a bit disappointed in it's A-cup shape because we shared it, so I think a B-cup would be more satisfying. The service was good, as it should have been, with the lack of diners. A bit more patrons came in while we were there but definitely not a rush. The two female hostesses were affable and joked about my large ICEE container I still had from the movie and not able to bring outside food. Good times left with laughs and a smile. Our waiter filled our water glasses when needed, and he would check on us to make sure all was fine. Parking is ample in downtown Burbank, whether it's n the street or the many parking structures. Overall, I do like Wokcano, but it's not necessarily a sushi destination for me (my heart belongs to Ichiban in Glendale). I'm all about the food, and as good as it is, it's not great, and the idea of "gourmet" sushi in a club-like atmosphere isn't for me. I see this place more for it's happy hour and hanging out with colleagues after work, but not as a serious restaurant; too much of style rather than substance. Based on said portion size, I didn't see much value as noted by the prices I quoted above (total bill was around $45.00 before tip). But I will say, I am a fan of the Truffle Edamame. As I said, I felt the atmosphere and décor is too shee-shee, there are plenty of tables and seats, and attire is business casual at the least. Since we can only rate in whole stars, I give them 3 1/2 stars. And they take my credit card of choice...AMEX! read more

I'm gonna make this one short... The description pretty much says it all "Asian Fusion" (i.e. chinese food with additional sushi type offerings.) The decor is pretty cool. On the trendy side. The times that I've been it hasn't been busy so it's quiet for the most part. The service is about standard... good. The food gets about a 4 out of 5 stars in it's specific category. read more

Upscale sushi/bar, nice ambiance. However, expensive - you can definitely get better/bigger sushi for less down the street at several different places... but you pay for the atmosphere. The place inside is a lot bigger than it looks, romantic and classy vibe. The servers were very attentive, taking every plate as soon as you're done and even replacing them in time for your meal. I was craving sushi so that's what I got and it wasn't bad, but it's definitely a better deal to get the meal, and it's pretty tasty. Cocktails run at $13 (more than Geisha House!) and are kind of small for the price, but tasty as well. It's a hefty penny you pay but it's nice and appropriate for special occasions. Next time I'll def eat sushi elsewhere but come here for dessert and maybe an appetizer. Being open until 2 AM is also a big plus. It's at the end of San Fernando so there's a lot to look at after you're done eating! Parking is very easy as there is a free, covered lot right behind it. read more

We had dinner here a few times. The decor is chic and hip Asian style, very modern, I like their darker lighting. It's a place better for bigger groups of people or for after work drinks with friends. The cocktails are pricey and their food varies. We enjoyed their Mongolian Beef and their Singapore Style Noodles. Their Curry Chicken wasn't too good. I didn't really like their Pad Thai, it was wayyy too eggy for my taste. Bit too expensive for what it is. Service is OK. I prefer Chadaka Thai down the street for the quality of food and their prices. read more

All you need to know about this place is the Lunch Specials, the Brussels sprouts, and their wonton soup. FIN. read more

I came here on a Sunday around 6pm with 2 friends for happy hour. There was street parking and a public parking lot that is walking distance on Angeleno Ave if you can find a spot on San Fernando Blvd. The menu had a lot of options and I ended up going with the Garlic Brussels Sprouts, Crispy Garlic Chicken Wings and Vegetable Egg Rolls. Everything was really tasty and the total for all 3 together was around $16. I would definitely come back, but next time I will likely try something on the main menu. read more

Love this place. The atmosphere, the food, the service... I have nothing bad to say. The atmosphere is very relaxing, the food is perfect every time, and the service is attentive and fast. One of our go to spots. Some great menu items I would recommend would definitely be the calamari. Also try the Kung pao that has chicken beef and shrimp it is amazing. Their noodles are great too. Can't go wrong with anything here. read more

I've been to wokano a couple of times for lunch. As long as you set your expectations, you will enjoy your meal. The prices are a little bit on the high side, but the food is go. I have had the sushi a couple times, and I would say it is average. The "Wok" dishes are actually quite good, but be prepared that the Garlic noodles are very "Garlicy." The other dishes are flavorful, although a bit salty. My favorite part about my last visit, was that it is between 3 Poke Stops! I was able to sit there during lunch, collect some Pokemon, and load up on the balls. All in all I would recommend trying out Wokcano, but just don't walk in expecting to be blown away by an amazing meal. I will happily return to this location over going to other chain restaurants in the area. read more

Happy hour was great but the Spicy Tuna Roll was very tasty with fresh tuna and rice was moist. I also had the Chow Fun and it was a large order of delicious noodles and tender chicken with sprouts and green onions! I feel that at the regular price the food would still be as good a deal! read more

I've had bad Chinese food but then there is this. Absolutely, gross. I ordered the Black Pepper Beef Mignon and that was not filet mignon or any type of a good cut of beef. This was some chewy, fatty disgusting piece of meat, cut up in a salty, watery, soupy sauce that was not spicy. I had to throw it out it was soooo disgusting. I also ordered the spicy Thai soup and that tasted like dishwater. Maybe because it was a Monday and the food was not fresh...I don't know, but this was one of the most disgusting meals I've had in a long, long time. Do yourself a favor and skip this place. read more

I have been to this location several times and I never had any problems but this time had to be the WORST!!!!! I was out to dinner with my family around 7:00 pm on 9/30 and I had order three rolls . The food this time wasn't the greatest but we didn't complain until I bit into the shrimp tempura roll and found a ROCK!!! I ate half of it and then threw it up . I'm thankful that I didn't break a tooth . When the manger (Frank Perez) came over to the table to ask what was going on . I explained it to him at first he didn't believe me we had to put it under a flash light and he had to feel it . Instead of asking if I was okay he had to investigate it make sure I was telling the truth . Then he said well I guess we are sorry it probably came from the produce (but the roll is cooked??) The most he could offer me at first was to replace the roll we went back and forth and he said the most he could do is give me 50% off my bill. Just to put the icing on the cake the waiter lost the money when paid . We saw he dropped it on the floor and we picked it up waiting for him to come to us and tell us the truth . But instead Jonathan Anthony came over to us " we saw you on the camera pick up the money " well duh I'm glad we did and not someone else . The way my family and I where treated was poorly and the customer service was terrible!!! To be honest right now I'm still waiting for my straw for my drink !! Smh I will go back again ! The food was terrible and also was service !!! read more

Soiled front door and sticky tables , Slow service, waiter didn't care , missed one order, forgot to put drink on happy hour price. Food was delicious, however tuna hand roll price $8 is the most expensive not just in Burbank but in LA. I will never come back here again. read more

We came here on Saturday night for a birthday dinner, We ordered appetizers for the table. Chicken wings and calamari. They were both good, but my only complaint is their OBSESSION WITH SCALLIONS. Both the wings and calamari were good, but there were so many chopped scallions on top that the food under it began to get soggy. All of the food not under kept their crunchiness. At 1 point the kitchen door opened and I saw the cook with a handful of scallions lol. Don't get me wrong, scallions are good, but you can have too much. The sauce for the calamari was yummy. I also ordered the pork belly in black bean sauce. It was a nice stir fry with rice. The pork belly was tender. Everyone seemed happy with their food. Our server was very attentive. Parking isn't too bad here. A bunch of us parked in the public lot behind Bank of America. It was less than a block away. read more

Amazing experience! Donald was my server and he was seriously awesome, it's not often I take notice of that kind of stuff by Donald deserves a raise for sure! On to the sushi: I ordered Salmon Sushi, Fatty Yellowtail Sushi and a Rainbow Roll, which were all fantastic. The fish tasted fresh, the rice was perfect and all together it was a really pleasant experience. If your looking for sushi in the Burbank area, check out Wokcano! read more

Service was great but the food was extremely disappointing. Kung Pao chicken was chewy and flavor was average at best.

The wife and I needed go get a bite to eat after a busy day. Unfortunately we opted not to have Sushi, but other entrees. I had the lo Mein, wife had the Mongolian BBQ. Both dishes went back barely touched. Our server didn't even seem surprised when we declined the offer to have them boxed up ... read more

We have become obsessed with Sushi, but always hesitate to try new places. Wokano has definitely always been a favorite, however this Burbank location definitely will have us returning. Besides hoping for the food to be delicious, I'm always hoping the service is up to par. Our waitress Desirae (hope I spelled it correctly) was absolutely amazing. She definitely made our Sunday Sushi Date absolutely perfect. The Edamame came in a huge overflowing bowl, salted perfectly and tasted so fresh! Yummy! Next came our beautifully prepared rolls (pictures posted of course). Spicy Tuna Roll California Roll Peacock Roll Spicy Crabmeat Tempura Roll Spicy Tuna on Crispy Rice My boyfriend LOVES Spicy Tuna, I'm normally a mediocre fan of it, but the way these were prepared, I gobbled them right up! And normally he's not a fan of Tempura, but he definitely helped me devour those as well. Everything was on point, from the ingredients, the perfection of the rice texture, the visual presentation, to the amount of sauce drizzled on top. I originally ordered the California Roll, but wanted to switch it with the Spicy Crabmeat Tempura Roll. However it was too late to switch, so the Manager offered a Discount on the California Roll if we still wanted both. (Thank you once again!!) Let's just say I'm glad we did order both. Personally I have been bored and disappointed with the California Roll, but the way it was prepared was the perfect California Roll. Simple yet fresh and tasteful. And all in between, we decided to try out the Bacon Wrapped Asparagus. These were BEYOND mouthwatering! These are a MUST TRY if you have not! The food was prepped perfectly, fresh tasting and savory! It's definitely been our best visit to any Wokano location yet, and Burbank is now our Favorite for Wokano as well. read more

The food was amazing! We got the Sushi Love Boat, which was 1. HUGE and 2. Delicious!! We also got beef and lamb, which were incredibly tender and easy to chew. YUM!! The only thing was that it was a little pricey and service was somewhat slow, but that might have been because I was in a rush They were very nice! A great experience overall! read more
