Japanese ramen!

The food is absolutely delicious and not once have I been disappointed by this family owned business. The owners are extremely friendly, and it is obvious they put in a lot of effort into their food. The prices are another bonus! Everything is reasonably priced. I usually order for takeout, but I have dined in a couple of times and the ambiance is very sweet and calm. Hands down my favorite small business in El Paso!

I've been coming here for many years now and with the new owners in charge of this place I feel like they have really been slacking it big time. The food I got was cold and they barely serve you any chicken. This is the last time I go there this isn't tje first or they've done this.

Won't eat here again any time soon. The bugolgi and chicken teriyaki was extremely dry and lacked flavor.

Lunch time never disappoints, kimchi cucumbers are the bomb…read more Service is great, fast and unobtrusive. Recommend the lunch bento box chicken teriyaki as it is more than enough food and has a little of everything. Comes with crab Rangoon Decor with booth makes it a charming atmosphere

My husband recommended Sunny's as a good sushi spot and highly recommended their crab Rangoon. I…read moreabsolutely love crab Rangoon so of course I gave in and decided to give them a try! We visited on a weeknight for dinner and were seated right away. The restaurant was fairly busy for it being a weeknight but the service was still great! Our waiter came out right away to get our drink order. I asked him for a recommendation for their flavored Sake and he suggested the white peach so I ordered that. It was good! Very strong. But I liked it. My husband and I each got our own order of crab Rangoon. Let me tell you, they did NOT disappoint! I'd honestly get two orders just for myself, it was so delicious. For my main dish I got the California roll. I know, I'm very basic. But honestly it is my favorite! I think we may have come on an off day for them because the rice used for the sushi rolls was a bit dry. But it wasn't unbearable. They also give free miso soup and pickled cucumbers. Very tasty! I'd definitely come back for their crab Rangoon alone! Service was great too, I'll be back again.

Standout grilled chicken with a great teriyaki sauce, not too sweet with a touch of mirin. Might be homemade? If it isn't, it's a really good commercial version. Salmon roll is huge, but you can do a half order. Service is phenomenal. I think I was asked how I was doing by 3 different staff. Others got the same level of service, whether they were dining in or ordering out. Music is great as well. Cash gets you the 4% discount already in the menu and there's a weekday lunch special. *Bonus observation: clean restroom, but what's up with the SQUARE toilet? I've never used one or seen one before..This is the first time I've used it and I understand why there's no square ones usually because it's super uncomfortable.

Having been to Korea quite a few times, I can honestly say this chicken is pretty close to the…read moreauthentic Korean flavors I've experienced there. This was my first time visiting, and I'm really glad I decided to give it a try. The chicken was really good. It was crispy, juicy, and well seasoned, and I went with the sweet and savory sauce, which paired really well with the chicken. I also ordered the ramen noodles, and they have a pretty cool setup where you can use a machine to add the hot water and cook your own noodles. It was something different and made the experience a little more fun. There was a pretty good crowd inside during my visit, with quite a few people dining in. After trying the food, I can definitely understand why. The restaurant was clean, had nice decor, and there was plenty of seating. They also have a bar area with seating and a selection of adult beverages. Overall, I had a really good first experience here. The food was flavorful, the atmosphere was nice, and the place had a good energy without feeling overcrowded. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other menu options.

I can't believe this place is still in business. The service is horrible and the food isn't that…read morefar off from the service that they provide either. First off there wasn't even a warm welcome. One of the workers just said a soft hello and just stood there. Didn't even direct us where to go or let us know that we could sit anywhere. Then came up to us to hand us the menu to quickly tune around and walk away. Another person came up and asked us what we would like to drink... after 10 mins they finally brought us some water. Like what were they doing back there? Chipping away ice to put in the cups or washing the dust off the cups since it looks like no one comes here at all. Or ever to put at that!! After the water was given, we placed our order. We ordered the overly priced spicy tuna roll and the ramen with just vegetables. Spicy Tuna Roll: like seriously? You're going to serve some nasty roll on plate and call it awesome? The tuna had a sour taste to it and it was discolored like as if someone had taken a syringe tried to suck out the color of that poor tuna. The rice wrapped around it had a pinkish tint to it thinking that it wasn't freshly made. Like it was just sitting in the rice cooker for a couple of days before they used it for us since... again! No one goes there. This was not worth the $8 that they had it priced on the menu. Even places who have better sushi have their basic rolls for $4-5. Ramen with Vegetables: this was a sad sad desperate attempt to make something and call it restaurant quality ramen. This definitely tastes like the $.50 instant ramen that you get from Wal-Mart with a hard boiled egg and a couple pieces or huge nori in it. The "With vegetables" part was just some slices of scallions and a few disappoint pieces of cabbages floating around. If I knew this is what it was going to taste like, I would've just gone to Wal-Mart. This cost $5 when it probably only cost $2 to make. Sad attempt.. Service: other than the fact there was an obnoxiously long wait time with no friendliness at all, the fact that there are no soy sauce bottles on the table with the dipping dish is so strange. Do you not dip your sushi in soy sauce? Or do you just pour it all over the sushi to hide the horrendous taste? Venue: No one else was there. We were the only ones there. The music wasn't that great and the TV were so distracting when trying to eat? Are you trying convey a sushi restaurant or a sports bar? Also, get new chopsticks. Why are you trying to embellish and sell off Pho King when you already have a name for yourself? Don't cut corners and try to save money by having products that represent other places. Overall: sucked. Didn't even finish the meal since I had the fear of severe food poisoning and just left. Never going back there ever again. If you think that this place is a good bang for your buck, great! Have fun spending more money on your medical bills.

Ummm I wanted to give this place a try but one look at the menu and there was really nothing fuzion…read moreabout it. Sushi, mediocre ramen, and nothing really appeasing. Overall the service was ok but honestly if they want to compete with what is around them that menu ain't gonna cut it.

I sure hope that by the time I'm done posting this review, I am able to bump up the average rating…read morefor this place from 2 stars to at least...3 or so. Because the previous reviewers of this place who gave them 1 star seriously ought to consider scheduling themselves for a cranial nerve exam! So this is the sushi bar my wife recommended to me and the same one I was trying to locate the other day, but ended up at Makoto instead. Hands down...Katsura is TWICE the sushi joint that Makoto is. Let's talk menu. This place already has the advantage over the first one I tried due to the fact that they actually serve other items besides sushi. The Ramen soup (as pictured) is excellent! It's SO good, in fact, that it reminded me of the Ramen I used to enjoy at Susaki before they were inexplicably shut down. It consists of chicken and Ramen in beef broth with green onions. Exquisite! Before we could enjoy our Ramen though, they brought out the sushi. My wife ordered the Favorite roll (yes, that's what it's actually called) and although I asked for a California Shrimp roll, I'm fairly certain the waiter brought me a regular California roll instead. Whatever. I was feeling too adventurous and was too hungry to give a crap at this point. We quickly discovered why it's called the "Favorite Roll". This sushi beat the pants off the California roll (which I'll get to in a bit). Solid 10! 5 stars all around. Yada yada yada. Now, the biggest problem I had with the California roll (aside from the fact that the whole thing looked as if it was about to fall apart in my chopsticks) was the fact that it was incredibly dry. Keep in mind, I made NO modifications to this roll what so ever. So it was served as it normally is. I was expecting more with the filler. But it seemed to consist of crab meat with a few veggies, avocado and...that's about it. No sauce, other than the Japanese spicy mayo that we ordered on the side. This roll could have used some soy or masago. I dunno. Something seemed incredibly bland about this particular roll, especially in comparison to the Favorite roll we got. Anyway, the Favorite roll (which ended up being our favorite. ooooh!! see what I did there?), we ended up ordering two more of those to go so we could enjoy them later. Honestly, I was already pretty stuffed from the Ramen soup when all was said and done. The service was actually WAY better than previous patrons described. The waiter was very attentive. Almost....annoyingly so. But we were one of four customers there at the time, since it was fairly early in the day. So I only have a couple theories about the reviews preceding mine.. 1.) Since it's fairly obvious that most of the negative reviews for this place date back to 2014 and earlier, I can only assume they were operating underneath different management and/or had different chefs working in the back. So it's very possible that at one point, the quality of food here was as abysmal as some claim. Dismissing all that, however, I'll bet it's more like.. 2.) More than a handful of the negative reviews left for this place came from folks who either don't usually post reviews on a regular basis or, worse....only have 1 review underneath their profile and this is it. It's like they created a Yelp account for the sole purpose of bashing some sushi joint they didn't agree with. Because....reasons. I dunno...that just seems more like trolling to me. All I know is I had almost no problems with this place, except for the one sushi roll being kind of a let down. But you can't even really hold that against them anyway because honestly, not every sushi roll is for every person. Overall: we will most definitely be returning here and I might even leave an updated review at some point in the future. I feel like this place should have a much higher average rating. I plan to open a discussion thread recommending this place to other Yelpers. Maybe then, Katsura Sushi will receive the more accurate reviews it deserves.

This is by far the worst sushi I've ever had in my entire life! Me being from Hawaii and having…read morevisited Japan, I can truly say that I've had traditional sushi all my life. The sushi from Albertsons and the commissary tastes way better than what this "Japanese" sushi restaurant serves! For the price we paid for Ebi nigiri sushi $5.50 each piece (ordered 2 for $11 total) it was a total rip off! This was not served with sushi rice. There was no taste to the rice. It was just "plain rice"! It was bad!! My husband's fried rice was expensive for a small little portion with not much taste. The dragon roll that we ordered didn't even look like a dragon roll. That was just like a California maki with shrimp on it, and yet again, no sushi rice just plain white rice. There was no dipping sauce for the gyoza, which was sad, so I used unagi sauce just for taste because the gyoza didn't have much flavor. Our waitress was nice in the beginning, but never checked up on us after she gave us our food. We had to look for her and wait to ask for refills on our drinks. We asked for a container at the same time, and I had to stand up and go over to her to ask for our check because she didn't bring it or ask if we needed it. Don't think I'll ever come here again. Food quality was bad, service could be better, and prices need to change for the quality and amount of food that you are serving! Just looked at my receipt that I guess when you pay with a debit or credit card they're gonna charge you additional funds as well which I believe it maybe illegal!
