My favorite sushi spot in all of LA!!! It has it all-- from the cozy ambiance, to the taste and quality of the fish, and the very reasonable pricing. My husband and I go here once a week and are never disappointed!

Delicious Sushi! Fresh melt in your mouth fish. I love Albacore and Tuna, so that's what I had and it was amazing. The staff is also very friendly and on it. Scenery is great.

I've always loved Little Izaka-ya, and we used to try and come all of the time, but we got away from it during Covid. This weekend, I was reminded again what we were missing and won't make the same mistake again. Always start with the spicy tuna crispy rice. It's practically still sizzling as it comes to the table. Sushi pieces come one to an order, but the prices are totally reasonable. So many belly options that melt in your mouth. And we always end the meal with freshwater eel. Lots of cut roll options, but we gravitate towards the Robert roll. The avocado is consistently so incredibly soft and creamy. Never disappoints. Sake is reasonably priced and they'll bring an ice bucket to the table if you request it to keep it cold! The dining room can get a little cramped when it's busy (7pm is super popular) so always call in advance for a reservation if you don't want to wait! There's a public parking lot that is attached to the back of the restaurant, so you can pay for two hour parking and enter through the back door!

Delicious food but amazing staff/leadership! At the restaurant there was a group of firefighters taking a break from fighting the LA fires. When I inquired about paying for their meal, the restaurant manager quietly informed me that they would be providing the meal, drinks and desserts for free! I was so impressed by the staff and how they made sure the firefighters were taken care of. I will definitely return, not only for the great sushi but for the wonderful staff!

I love all of these restaurants. They're so creative and have different specials. The butter sauce here is they use it differently everywhere. Jose was our server and he was kind and informative. All the staff greets you when you arrive which I love. I am a big fan of greeting people. This place is small make a reservation or come later in the night or for lunch if you can! Try everything and someone next to us said that wagyu sliders are bomb. They're pretty big sliders too! I've been here a few times since I live down the street. Best sushi in this area!
