Best WLM Reviews
Absolutely loved this place! Everything we ate was phenomenal, and the staff were kind and attentive. The owner came by to welcome us at the beginning of our meal and told us more about the restaurant. Can’t wait to come back and try all the things we didn’t eat this time!
Hands down, best sushi i have ever eaten!! the owner, vincent, truly put so much work into making Asuka an unforgettable experience. The service was impeccable and nothing went unnoticed. Beautiful atmosphere and very clean place, amazing waiters, and most of all the food melts in your mouth. Absolutely worth trying. I have been to a countless amount of sushi restaurants and this one is by far top of my list!
Incredible experience. Trying this place for the first time we were only disappointed that we haven’t been here sooner. The food was excellent, the fish was fresh and every dish was so flavorful. Try the kaiseki menu. Every dish was perfect. The staff are very attentive and make sure each customer has a great experience. The owner stopped by and chatted with us. It was really nice to learn the history of the restaurant and see how passionate he is about the food and his customers. Highly recommend! A true Westwood neighborhood gem.
Asuka was open four years ago in Westwood Los Angeles. It offers an $85 or $150 kaisaki menu and a la carte.
I like the good pacing of foods with very fresh raw fishes and a nice ambience. We love the small outdoor dining environment.
Currently, the sushi bar is not open due to the pandemic. The restaurant inside is very clean.
Literally my favorite sushi restaurant of all time. Atmosphere is friendly yet professional and the food is absolutely exquisite. Every time I visit Los Angeles I always come here. There’s an $80 kaiseki course and $150 premium kaiseki course. Both are phenomenal. The $80 is a complete steal. I cannot believe they are charging so little for such amazing food. The owner, Vincent, is a delight to talk to and he has plenty of cool anecdotes to share. Definitely do not want to miss this spot.
All the dishes we ordered were excellent, the ingredients were very fresh. The manager informed us that they handpick their ingredients. He and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. I will be back for more.
I got the omakase, $68
Looking at the other orders leaving the sushi bar, it looks like that is what most people get.
It is a pretty basic selection, but still a good variety for the price.
If I had one disagreement, it was that the rice on the nigiri was a bit dry, but to the point where I don’t think most people would notice it.
I appreciate their creativity with the toppings. It’s always a fun way to see a chefs creative twist on sushi.
They make their own wasabi blend, and it is really tasty. It almost had me fooled with real wasabi, as it has some of the same characteristics, but not all.
I would give the fish quality a 4/5 on my sushi scale. Maybe around the level of sugar fish or just above, but not 5/5 mind blowing, or life changing sushi.
If you ever been to Japan you know that the harder the fish the more fresh it is. The softer the fish the longer it's sat there. Place has pretty amazing fish. Its a solid 4.5 for the food, the service was great and very friendly. Good place for a date or business meeting (which i had) price is decent for the location.
