One of the best sushi experiences I’ve had in quite some time. Also one of the few times i enjoyed every part of my meal start to finish. I found the fish to be of high quality and very fresh. What impressed me even more was the skilled simplicity of how it was all prepared, definitely my complements to the chefs. The tempura was fried perfectly (I love broccoli tempura, but it’s rare that i get some that keeps the veggie still so fresh while so crisp), and the spicy tuna surprisingly used no mayo and fully emphasized the flavor of the fish. The Japanese scallops with just a hint of salt and lemon, melted in my mouth. On the top of the food being delicious, the service was great as well. The staff was very attentive and quick to handle our needs. The cost is a bit on the higher end, but well worth it. They also offer a happy hour after 8pm til closing, which is a great deal. Overall i found everything about this restaurant exceeded my expectations.

Amazing and unassuming. I really wholeheartedly enjoyed my evening here with family. We ate, we laughed and we drank. Sushi was fun and had very unique flavors. the staff was so welcoming. We left full and happy with great memories.

LA is spoiled with so many great authentic Japanese restaurants. U-Zen is another shining example. I had very high hopes seeing so many positive reviews and high expectations from my recent trip to Japan. They did not disappoint! Excellent quality fish handled by master-level sushi chefs. A little pricy but worth it when considering the quality and taste. Staff was attentive and friendly. Will be back!

100% a must try. Been opened for more then 30+ Years. The most consistent sushi place i’ve ever been to. Love the service and staff all so friendly and kind. The place makes you feel like you’re in japan at a old casino style restaurant. Love it go try Uzen sushi.

Neighborhood Japanese restaurant that serves sushi as well as bento-style meals, so a good choice for couples or groups that have different ideas as to what they want out of a Japanese restaurant.
