Yummy food, but get up off the wine! – The food is very good and the specials menu is extensive. The ambience is plain and simple but cozy. Overall, a quite satisfying and reasonably priced meal. However, the wine glasses are run-of-the-mill, old-school-Chinese-restaurant tiny. Please folks, charge a dollar or two more for the wine but serve it in a decent-sized glass, for chrissakes!
Sushi, sake and an atmospheric patio make this Hillhurst eatery a go-to casual date spot for Eastsiders. – In Short Sure, there are plenty of places to sit inside, but the patio is why most people eat sushi at San Sui. Outside, vibrant orange lanterns cast a warm glow above black benches with seat cushions that are tucked away in a cozy, greenery-lined nook blocked off from busy Hillhurst. Weekday lunches consist of sushi, sashimi, teriyaki and tempura combos, but most people come for dinner, when the lanterns kick up the at... read more
EXCELLENT!! – Ok obviously the idiot above has never heard of fly season....we have 10 flies around our place as I write this. Definitely ignore the review above as this place is wonderful!! My husband and I eat there every weekend and the staff is very friendly!
san sui melts in your mouth – try the lotus root! whenever i go and i've been there 4 times since last sunday im treated like im their favorite customer, maybe its because i've introduced myself to Masako their veteran waitress...either way the food is divine, sushi that melts in your mouth, and usually we stay til it closes having sake round after sake round while joking with Masako. BEST service and best sushi on the East Side.
So-so Service, Bad Food – I can't believe that I actually waited 40 minutes outside for it to open. During nighttime the restaurant does seem to have a good atmosphere to dine in. However, looks can be deceiving. My girlfriend and I got a table at the corner right next to 2 very large windows. We were joined later by 3 very large flies just flying around us trying to attack our food. This made me wonder how the restaurant ever got an "A" for cleanliness rating. There were 2 waitresses there. One of them seemed nice while the... read more
bad experience – the sushi was ok, nothing special. the grilled calamari was undercooked and had to send it back. then they charged us for things we didn't order. we noticed they did the same thing to the people sitting next to us.
outstanding, artful dishes, macrobiotic – This is my favorite sushi restaurant in L.A. The food is presented immaculately, with a macrobiotic influenced menu (kinpira, marinated lotus, burdock root, etc). The "energy salad" is absolutely healing. Be sure to try the daily specials. They've really thought out each dish, everything is presented artfully - this is what makes San Sui ("mountain river") outstanding.The service was so fast it seemed like they read our mind before we even ordered. The ambiance is nature meets modern... read more
Not going back – Went there once thought it was good, went again and got two blobs of 'sushi' for $17. Service was slow as molasses.
I love San Sui, and you will, too. – Delicious sushi, lovely atmosphere with dangling orange lanterns, and the sweetest hostess this side of the Mississipp. They don't make proprietors like this anymore...she makes you feel like a guest in her own home, and the sushi is so scrumptious I never fail to stuff myself silly.
