With various seating spaces and dining areas like the Sushi Bar, the Robata (the grill), and the Sunset Room, you can take your pick as far as ambiance is concerned. The delicious offerings consist of an assortment of soups, rolls, main courses, tapas, sake and more, but the establi... read more

Hollywood Hot Spot – I was pleasantly surprised with my experience. Located in the heart of Sunset Blvd, Katana is the perfect place if you want the feeling of cruising the boulevard. There is plenty of noise, pretty people, and people watching to be had. This isn't a place I'd go to impress a date or for a quiet evening, it's more of a place to go with pals to people watch and have a fun time. It's stereotypically "Hollywood trendy". The food was surprisingly good (guess I wasn't expecting much) and the menu was well priced... read more
Good food and good times – Nice ambience and interior. Both the sushi and the skewered grill items are yummy. If you can, reserve a table outdoors... it's nice for a romantic dinner or a party with friends. Reccomendations: Sushi: shrimp tempura roll, tuna carpachio appetizer, chicken karage. Skewers: chicken meatball, salmon, shrimp
What a Blast! – A gorgeously decorated restaurant with beautiful people enjoying delicious food and drinks, what more could you ask for. If you do not like noisy bars/rest. then do not attempt to go there on the weekend. However any of the sushi is great, the mushroom caps stuffed with chicken are heaven. Get advice on some sake and you're all set. Try to sit outside with a view over Sunset and spend the night there.
Unexpected dining pleasure – Recently dined at Katana upon recommendation from The Standard Hotel where we were staying and had an awesome dinner. We were seated immediately without reservations on a Sunday night. It did get quite busy about an hour after our arrival so reservations would be helpful. Our waitress was extremely attentive in an unobtrusive way and very pleasant. She recommended the foie gras filet mignon as an appetizer and it was incredible. The sushi was great as was the Chilean sea bass. We thought the pric... read more
still debating, but generally good – Situated in the thick of Sunset's chaos, Katana attracts a very "Hollywood" crowd. Interesting decor and very loud. We had reservations for a Wed. night and still waited. The service is iffy because it's so busy. Avoid the sushi and peer over the robata menu. I had the quail eggs, chilean sea bass, shrimp in tarragon miso, and filet mignon w/foie gras, and all were excellent. The portions are small, but rather inexpensive. More like tastings. The popcorn shrimp came w/delicious sauces. Th... read more
Manage your Expectations & Enjoy! – A feast for the eyes more than for your stomach. The decor is a lot of fun (be sure to visit the restrooms), but while the menu reads creative, the food is just so-so. We made a reservation for 9PM, then waited an HOUR to be seated. By 10PM we were starving so we particularly appreciated the speedy & friendly service. Customers ranged from early 20's beautiful people to hip mid-40's on a date. Overall, one of the better places to dine/hang on the Sunset Strip and I'd go back.
What A Joke – I'm all grown up now, but I miss my stupid nights on Sunset so I told my wife that I wanted a night on the town. We chose Katana for its 'rep'. We ordered their version of the tasting menu and the first thing arrived were the Popcorn shrimp flown in direct from Applebee's. The skewers were glazed in a secret teriyaki sauce stolen directly from Teriyaki Bowl in Pacoima. The service was horrendous, inconsistent, rude, inattentive, distant, snooty, uncaring and barely existent. However, the service was really fast... read more
great atmosphere – The robata and some sashimi items are pretty good. However, the sushi needs a little more kick and the desserts are overall creative. Service is prompt and you have to try their drinks~~
Superb! – Really good food. I love the variety on the menu and the ability to order in small quantities -- this really allows to you to taste the wide variety of samplings. I found the service to be really warm and friendly. Great atmosphere, fun people, fantastic food!
