Marginal at best – The sushi cuts were small and not particularly tasty, while the soy sauce and wasabi were terrible. I found the warm rice distracting from this fish.

A Wonderful Shock – Buttery fresh sushi that melts in your mouth. Utterly shocking. I was 2 hours early for a massage appt. across the way in the same dumpy complex and I literally accidentally stumbled into this ugly place on an early Monday night. It was completely empty and I cautiously walked in. There were no other patrons and I reluctantly sat at the sushi bar expecting a mediocre meal. The sushi chef served only myself as two obseqious waiters attended my every mouthful of pure delight. To my utter shock it was some o... read more

OK – the sushi is very good, but the service is horrible. the chef is rude and is one of the waitresses. also, the hours of operation are incorrect. they say that they close at 10 pm, but in reality they stop serving at 9:30.

UNREAL! – On a weekend visit from NY, I checked Citysearch to find the best sushi in LA. I've had sushi in LA before and have been very unimpressed... Echigo blew my mind away! Every piece of sushi was rediculously good! I tried nearly every item on the menu and it would be hard to rank them... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED... even by a NY sushi snob!

Best Sushi on the Westside or Anywhere – I live just around the corner from Echigo and didn't discover this little piece of heaven until recently. I've been going multiple times a week when possible. The lunch special is the greatest deal. The quality is unbelievable, the service is fantastic. Also, because this is a diamond in the rough, you never have to wait. Try the Bonito and the Albacore Sashimi, they're absolutely to die for. See you soon Toshi-San.

Best Sushi (and Lunch Special) in LA – Yellowtail and tuna that melts in your mouth. Serious quality upgrades on usual favorites...salmon with sweet sake kelp and a crab roll with REAL blue crab. Outstanding value, features a $10 lunch special that has no equal. New wait staff is courteous and cheerful, a refreshing change from the attitude I've come to expect from their "Trust Me" competition. Takes #1 away from Sasabune amongst Westside establishments, and has my vote for Best in LA.

Amazing Warm Sushi – Echigo has some of the best sushi I've had in L.A. or NYC. The people who are complaining about the rice falling apart don't understand that this is a different style of sushi. The rice is some of the most tasty I've ever had - I don't care if it's a little harder to eat!!! It is hard for me and my fiance to eat normal cold sushi now after being spoiled at echigo.

HIGHEST QUALITY FISH ANYWHERE, AND SUSHI IS ALL ABOUT THE FISH! – Anyone who has written a negative review about ECHIGO is just plain ignorant. Maybe they were mad because they couldn't order teriyaki Chicken! THe only other place in LA that has fish this excellent is Urusawa and you better be prepared to pay $300 per person. Toshi, the chef, get's up at 4amEVERYDAY and heads to the various fish markets TO PERSONALLY search for the best fish available! A master like him DOES NOT COMPROMISE on QUALITY. I have seen him taste i... read more
