  “We always enjoy dining at Sushi Gen. It has become one of our long-time favorite spots, and we keep coming back year after year. We usually sit at the bar and order our sushi directly, where everything is incredibly fresh and carefully prepared in front of you. It’s always a popular dining choice, and even when it’s busy, the experience still feels smooth and well taken care of. The seating area is a bit small and intimate, but that actually adds to its charm. The vibe is warm, welcoming, and cozy, and there’s a comforting energy the moment you step in. Despite how popular it is, it never feels rushed or impersonal. Many of the staff have been working here for years, and you can really feel their experience and consistency in the way they serve and interact with guests. The sushi master is often present at the bar, personally greeting customers with a calm and friendly presence, which makes the whole experience feel even more special and genuine. We truly appreciate the attention to detail, the freshness of the fish, and the overall consistency over so many years. It’s rare to find a place that maintains this level of quality and atmosphere for such a long time. While the bar seating is a bit on the pricier side, it is absolutely worth it for the freshness, craftsmanship, and overall dining experience.”

  “My favorite place for sushi in LA. The quality is amazing—this is one of the only places where the tuna actually tastes fresh and truly delicious. I’ve been to countless sushi spots all over California, and nothing beats this place. A lot …”

  “Truly one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten. I never really understood how sushi rice should be seasoned and the quality of the fish is outstanding. Splurge for the premium chirashi with bbq eel.”

  “This sushi place is the best in town. Raw tuna has an absolutely superb taste. It’s of great quality and has a high turnover rate, ensuring that you can always enjoy fresh sushi. However, one unfortunate aspect is that we don’t take reservations, which means we have to wait for at least 20 minutes.”

  “The highest quality sushi in LA! Order the omakase and let the sushi masters work their magic. They'll keep giving you treats until you say no more. Price is reasonable for this level quality. When you order Amiebi you can choose the between fried head or miso soup with head.”

  “I had lunch at Sushi Gen, a place where you usually have to wait an hour to an hour and a half. Lately, though, it feels like the waiting time has been getting shorter. Most popular Japanese or BBQ restaurants take one weekday off, and this …”

  “My second visit, and it's still just as good as the first: the authentic flavors, fresh fish, and the perfect temperature, leaving the sensation incredible. The line was quite long at lunchtime; we waited about 30 minutes.”

  “Came here on a Saturday night around 6pm and waited about 90 minutes for a table. The kicker? You have to pay $10 to get in the lot before you even get the pleasure of waiting. Food was good but not worth a 90 minute wait”
