One of my favorite izakayas!!! Happy hour deal is the best. My boyfriend and I used to visit here after 10pm and eat sushi! Salmon sushi is our favorite
This is my second time here and I can confidently say this is the best izakaya I’ve ever been to. A solid five stars without a doubt! The service is excellent, and the chef is so friendly and engaging. But the real highlight is the food. I’ve tried so many dishes, and unbelievably, every single one was delicious! I honestly can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you for making such incredible food!
Haru Sushi exceeded all expectations! The grilled skewers were the standout—flame-kissed perfection with bold, savory flavors that had me ordering seconds (and thirds). Each skewer was cooked to perfection and packed serious flavor. The no rice rolls were just as impressive—light, fresh, and beautifully presented. They let the quality of the fish and ingredients take center stage without the filler. This place is a must-visit if you’re into high-quality sushi and amazing grilled bites. Easily one of my new favorites! @sushitraveler
Extremely High Quality Fish in an Authentic Japanese Style Restaurant. This has got to be my favorite late night restaurant not only in Hollywood but the entirety of LA. Their late night Happy Hour menu is a winner here. Fresh Sushi Rolls, flavorful Takoyaki, light and crispy Chicken Karage, you cant go wrong if you want a taste of everything! Support local business like this here in Thai Town cause this place is a hidden gem!
As you can see from the photo, we ordered quite a lot of food. Overall, the dishes were flavorful without being overly salty, which I appreciated. However, the portions were on the smaller side, and the size of the meat and other items felt a bit modest. I usually order edamame as an appetizer, but they were out of stock that day, so I tried the seasoned peppers instead—and they were delicious. The restaurant doesn’t have a lot of seating, so if you catch it at the right time, you can be seated right away. Otherwise, there might be a bit of a wait. One thing to note: for those who prefer not to valet (myself included), finding street parking can be really difficult.
