Kinda worth the wait – Food is awesome- the wait for a table with a reservation makes me never want to return. Out of the 4 times I have been there, two times I have had a reservation and have been made to wait over an hour. They need to get that aspect of their service corrected

Great food & ambience – Good food, great ambience, hip crowd, relaxing view on the patio. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants. The servers are always helpful. The food is always good, especially the robata halibut and dynamite sushi. Definitely make reservations otherwise the wait will be a while.

Want good Maki? – Sakura House has better Maki, however the ambience is good, and it makes a fun night.

Don't miss the foie gras! – So good......the skewers are the way to go! The food is even better than the scene is, and that is rare on Sunset!

Best New Restaurant – My husband and I live in the Hollywood Hills and are amazed that it took this long for fine dining to come to Sunset Strip. We are regulars at Sushi Roku but Katana is so close. The new "skewer" cuisine is very inventive. We've tried everything from the lobster to the steak skewers and loved the dipping sauces. The sashimi was excellent and the braised pork from the kitchen is the best we've had. We've been back four times now, but our favorite was sitting at the Robata Bar where you can see it all happ... read more

This place is on a downward spiral... – Average food, ridiculously bad service, and horrific attitude from management. It took 30 minutes from when we were seated on the patio to see a menu, another 30 minutes for the so-called server to come back and take our order, and - by the time the food arrived (after we complained 3 times) 45 minutes later - we were disappointed. Plus, it took so long that it cost us $20 each to get our cars out of the parking lot. I'll never go back...

Do not go. – This place is an absolute joke. The reservationist's are exstremely rude and the restaurant service is terrible. For the prices you pay the restaurant is a complete dissapointment. Two words: OVER RATED

Great scene, OK food – Katana certainly is a glamorous dinner destination. Beautiful people, trendy clothes and plenty of stiletto heels. The outside patio is delightful for both eating and cocktail-ing, mainly because you get the benefit of checking people out as they're coming and going. The food is just OK. Sure, the kabobs are pretty cool and pretty good, but nothing better than you could accomplish on your own. Chicken-stuffed mushrooms were simply unexceptional; cod was suspiciously fishy. The dipping sauces, though, a... read more

$14 for Valet Parking – Well ,The Valet was 14 dollars and the edame was too salty and overcooked. My Sashimi salad was "not as fresh" as should be but it was only $8.00. The Sushi I ordered was below average, Overall the atmoshphere and vibe made up for the so so meal. I will go back and give it another try if they could get better waiters who know how to make better suggestions to first timers. Menu was confusing and was not explained by inexperienced young staff. Location is everything, isn't it? That is what they have. G... read more
