Sushi Enya Little Tokyo

This was hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had. Sitting at the bar was a fantastic experience, allowing direct interaction with the chefs and a perfect view of the sushi-making process, complete with their insightful comments. We ordered as we went and tried multiple sushi options, including chef recommendations. The Crunchy Vegas roll was the standout—absolutely incredible. The staff was incredibly polite and welcoming, making the experience even more memorable. We loved it so much that we returned the very next day for more. While it’s a bit on the pricier side, it’s worth every penny. The location in Little Tokyo is also perfect. Highly recommended!

Best sushi I've had outside of Japan thus far. You might look at the prices and think it expensive, but I kid you not when I say it is 100% worthy of that price and more. The fish MELTS in your mouth; it is so fresh and delicate. There was not a single thing I ate that wasn't excellent. This is REAL sushi - no giant blobs of awkwardly seasoned (or unseasoned) rice, no thick and chewy slabs of fish, no "fishy" tasting roe or mackerel. Everything is incredibly fresh. Each offering a perfectly proportioned and balanced bite. I will definitely be coming back next time I'm in LA.

Sushi Enya - omg. All expectations met. From the freshest fish, to the delicious sauce combinations, to the amazing staff. Our party came hungry and left beyond satisfied. Saturday, no reservation - we waited 15 mins before doors and were seated right away.

Authentic Japanese sushi at finest quality. This place serves sushi prepared at high-end style. Everything will feel perfectly enjoyable. Hence, they do use a bit of yuzu, but it makes the sushi a bit more unique and stylish. The roles are great, and prepared in the right size for a bite. It is size also the kids can enjoy easily. Hence, the price point is not in the lower end. But the quality justifies it.

One of the best sushi places in LA! Super high quality, tasty with least amount of rice in the roll, so that you dont feel full after! Great Unagi, we ordered twice, as it was sooooo good?

Came here for dinner in a group of 7 on a Friday night. We had to wait for an hour to get seated since we had a large group with no reservation. Indoor seating only. They have a omakase option but we all opted for a la carte. I had a chirashi bowl which was quite filling and had a lot of fish. I got green tea which came with free refills. Service was friendly and there are gendered restrooms in the back. Metered street parking. Credit cards accepted. It’s a classy spot to eat high quality fish.

This is the Little Tokyo outlet of Sushi Enya. The place is on the same street as the popular ramen place. We orders the 18 piece sashimi set twice and the chef was thoughtful enough to put different fish slices on the two orders. We also tried their specialty eel roll which is served on a very long dish since eels are long? Quality of the fish are quite high and attention to details are there. There are not many tables so it gets crowded. Usually there is a wait so suggest to arrive early (5PM) or use table reservations. They have a cancellation fee if you make table reservation. There is no parking on site so you have paid street parking or paid parking structure near by.

One of the top quality sushi restaurants in LA. I only come here when I really want the best. Bar greets you when you come in, service is superb. It might get a little busy but no one gets ignored. Bravo!

I come here like almost every other month, i love their popcorn sushi ngl it's gas asf, they little toys are cute as well if you wanna come with your friends i say do so:3 10/10

My friend got seating for 3 prior to the Wu Tang concert on 06/22/2025. We arrived promptly at 6pm. Seating was available immediately. The friendly staff was very very helping and very attentive. Enya is a bit small as noted by others. But yes great things do come in small packages. After going over the menu over and over, the team finally decided on the Omakase. We didn't know what we were getting into. First off, before you order the Omakase well its a lot of food and you will be full / borderline stuffed. We paired our omakase with a floral dry sake. It went well. We drank more sake and I also had a hitachino white. Now I can't name everything I had. The chef was very polite and well spoken but I couldnt hear him most of the time. I'll point out what really stuck out. The opening broth. Is a light seafood broth. Comes in a small tea pot. And just balanced well. Very satisfying and soothing. Check inside the teapot for scallop and shrimps. Rosy Sea Bass - Amazing. Seared and just packed with delicious flavor. Rich but not overly rich. Amazing. Seafood Egg Custard - Unique and all umami! Comes with mushrooms within, topped with Salmon Roe and I dont like salmon roe but all these profiles worked together. Golden Eye Snapper - Topped with a yuzu pepper paste. This is light and just flavorful. It has a meaty texture but also soft. A5 Wagyu - Smoked, lightly seared. Just amazing. Fatty and rich in taste. Paired with a tomato that tastes more tomato than any other tomato Ive ever had. Mackerel w Fig Jam and Pine Nut - Very playful here. Sweet and subtle. The pine not adds a nice texture and crunch. This has a lot of depth in taste. Some Fish Collar - Just OMG this was like pure heaven. Very decadent. Fatty and just yums. Black Sesame Ice Cream w Milk Bread - Delicious. The ice cream is nutty and light. The milk bread is light fluffy and just pairs well as a dessert. That was it for the Omakase. I also got 2 other sushi pieces as they are my favorite and must get them at every sushi spot if available. Toro Taku - AKA NegiToro. Damn. I could eat like 20 of these. Delicious. Balanced with the taquan. This is a must get. The poor mans toro sushi. Yellowtail Belly - So so tasty. Amazing. I could eat like 20 of these too. Other things to note. While we didnt oder a maki roll. we saw some being order and they look massive like 10+ pieces each. The omakase was 1 broth appetizer, 1 plater of 4 pieces of appetizers, 15 pieces of sushi, 1 custard cup and a dessert and this lasted just over 2 hours. However we drank a good amount. The omakase was a great experience. Do I think it was worth it or necessary in order to experience Sushi Enya? No. The other sushi options we had were just as amazing. The omakase had some great pieces and some good pieces. But Sushi Enya was overall great.

The meal was pricey but you get the quality you pay for. I ordered the Enya chirashi bowl which came with what I think was 8 pieces of sashimi plus ikura and tamagoyaki on a bed of sushi rice. I couldn't stop raving about the sushi rice during the meal because normally it serves as a vehicle for the fish but it was so good that I could eat it on its own. My boyfriend loved his assorted sashimi plate which came with the 12 pieces of the same cuts of fish I had, I think, but in thicker slices. It didn't feel like a meal though because it didn't come with a side of rice. The waiter recommended the W. Dragon Roll since it's one of their most popular rolls so that was the more filling part of his meal, although I did try some too. The description did not mention sesame oil and that was a very prominent flavor in each bite so it wasn't my cup of tea. We also got an order of ootoro sushi because it's our favorite. Although the slice of tuna wasn't thick, it really did melt in our mouths. The service was good and the food came out quickly with the exception of the roll because the kitchen started getting backed up. We made a reservation in advance so we were seated right away. There was bar seating available but they have large tables in the back which made for a more comfortable seat.

Love this place! It has been my favorite sushi restaurant to go to, 100% satisfied every single time. Their specials are so delicious, check my last ticket, so worth trying. I need to get the omakase, it is time. Service and ambiance always great! Will keep coming back + they got women chef!

After strolling around little tokyo for a few hours we decided to stop by for some sushi and Enta was close by. Overall pretty decent experience. Came on a weekday night and the place was pretty full but there were lots of seats. I got the crunchy dragon roll and the Japanese waygu. The rolls come in huge portions, and it was pretty flavorful and had a good texture from the tempura flakes on top. The waygu was soft and had a mild taste of truffle but surprisingly expensive for what it was. Food: 7.9/10 Service: 8/10 (took a bit to order we had to call them back down after waiting for a while) Ambience: 7/10

This is a teeny tiny spot but good things come in small packages! We came in on a Thursday around 6:30 and got lucky without a reservation to be sat immediately. We got the crispy rice with spicy tuna. It was solid but not the best one I've ever had. I wish it had more eel sauce under it and I like it when it has jalapeño. The garlic edamame was PERFECTION. It was salty, garlicky & came out super hot. Our favorite was the lemon roll! Those thin slices of lemon atop the sushi brings an amazing freshness to the roll. The W. Dragon was our second favorite! It had all the right combinations of flavors. The service was nothing but amazing. There were always right there topping us off with water and/or tea. The only downside I'd say was the pricing. Each roll was $22. It was very much LA pricing. I'd definitely come back here if I was in the area!

Food was good but not really worth the price imo. I've had better chirashi bowls for almost half the cost with larger portions and more fish in both the Bay Area and in NY. I was also charged an extra $5 for it but caught it on the bill before leaving. The price on the receipt vs the menu is different, so just take notice. They quickly fixed it after we brought it to their attention, but it was still a tad annoying that I almost missed it if my boyfriend didn't point it out to me. The hand roll was also good but pricey imo. Best thing to me was the big clam sushi.

Very strange experience. My friend and I came in and right away the vibe was off. As we were looking at the menu at the bar every single staff member was surrounding us, just standing there watching us, it felt very uncomfortable and awkward. The food itself was good, and the gentleman who helped us was actually nice, but overall the atmosphere made it hard to enjoy the meal. We really only enjoyed the food part, but the uncomfortable energy throughout the visit definitely left a bad impression.

Let start off with Sushi Chef Lili . Her service was attentive and great ! Ambiance is clean and nice as usual . Food is amazing and consistent Thank you team .

Good thing we made a reservation bc this place was packed. Service was excellent, quick and helpful. We ordered a bottle of sake, 2 glasses of wine and 2 beers. We got a handful of appetizers and food. The crispy rice appetizers were so so huge and usually I'm not a fan when it's like that but the tuna was so so flavorful. I literally ate the whole thing. I would come back for sure.

Good experience, everything was wonderful food is tasty, service is great everybody works with smile and vibe was good enough to give 5 stars.

Food quality is so disappointing. We ordered a chirashi bowl, yellowtail hand roll, and two of their special rolls for $100 with much expectations. Service however was pretty quick and staff seemed nice. Fish did not taste fresh and their sushi rice seemed a bit more like brown rice? The specialty rolls were very small portioned. The tuna inside the roll was drenched in sesame oil... Unfortunately I will not be returning ): Go to Tenno Sushi instead!

Sushi Enya is a highly rated sushi restaurant group with another location on the Sawtelle st. West LA corridor of asian restaurants. It is highly rated on Yelp. So decided to try this Little Tokyo location(have not been to the Sawtelle one yet). I enjoyed my meal but nothing really stood out for me and paying $100 including tip should mean some selections wow you. Service was very friendly and excellent by the manager and waitress. My overall rating is it's overrated but maybe I should try some other items and may give it another try here or on Sawtelle st.

took a client here for a business dinner -- loved the greeting the team gave when we walked in. it was very sweet that the server also pulled our chairs for us to sit in. good portions for the price -- i was not expecting the rolls to be so large!

My date surprised me by doing all the ordering, which added an extra layer of excitement to the evening non omakase style. The standout items for me were the creamy Uni and melt-in-your-mouth O-Toro, both rich and decadent, balancing indulgence with the pure flavors of the sea. The Monkfish Liver - was delicious. I also loved the buttery Salmon Belly, and the Shima Aji was refreshing, with a clean, delicate taste. Yellowtail, Red Snapper, and Truffle Halibut brought depth to the meal, each one distinct and expertly prepared. And the Kanpachi? A perfect close--light, flavorful, and fresh. Sushi Enya offered an outstanding selection for any sushi lover. If you're looking for premium sushi and the freedom to order your own lineup, I highly recommend giving it a try!

Sushi Enya is a great, reliable sushi option among dozens of pricey options in LA. The miso soup was surprisingly good, and the spicy tuna crispy rice was a large portion. The rolls were tasty and creative, with the lemon roll, albacore fried onion roll, and chef 2 roll all being yum. Honestly a pretty solid choice.

My friend and I made a reservation here for 530pm but we were running late; so we called to see if we can shift our dinner to 615pm, and they were super accommodating. We ordered the garlic edamame, the albacore roll, and 3 nigiri. They were all so delicious. The garlic edamame was addicting. The roll had the perfect balance of rice and fish. And the nigiri all had quality, thick slabs of sashimi. It was a nice yet casual ambiance where we could also catch up well!

One of my favorite spots for sushi in LA hands down. It can be a bit pricey but you always get excellent quality fish, even if you order for delivery. They also have a great happy hour if you want to save some $$. Love sitting at the sushi bar to interact with the sushi chefs if you're dining solo or as a party of two (larger groups are harder to interact with if you're sitting in a row). Will definitely be a customer for a long time to come!

One of my favorite places, I've been coming here for almost 10 years. Everything about this place is fabulous, the service is always great, and the food is awesome. The fish is always perfect! And now they have this awesome cocktail!

Came here for dinner in a group of 7 on a Friday night. We had to wait for an hour to get seated since we had a large group with no reservation. Indoor seating only. They have a omakase option but we all opted for a la carte. I had a chirashi bowl which was quite filling and had a lot of fish. I got green tea which came with free refills. Service was friendly and there are gendered restrooms in the back. Metered street parking. Credit cards accepted. It's a classy spot to eat high quality fish.

Fast, attentive service. Amazing sushi (as always). This time we got sake and the presentation of the pour was very cool. Garlic edamame is the best (I can't find anywhere else that comes close to their's). Huge selection of rolls. You can't pick one that isn't delicious.

Me and my fiancé has been walking around the Japanese Village and trying to look for good sushi place and we spotted this Sushi Enya, they have a great selection of fishes and great service! Servers are all attentive and all nice. We will definitely come back once we are in Littke Tokyo!

I love love love this place and have been coming here for years! They've earned a Michelin star in 2019 and it does not surprise me one bit! Highly recommend to make reservations to avoid long wait times especially on the weekends. Definitely a quaint place, almost has a hole-in-the-wall feel from the outside. Just an FYI, this place isn't as friendly to those who don't eat fish (ie. no bento box, udon options, etc). PARKING: Some street parking available, however I never get that lucky. I usually park in the Joe's parking lot that belongs to the Little Tokyo mall for convenience. Their rolls are what makes it stand out! LEMON ROLL: One of their popular items on the menu. This is made of salmon, spicy salmon, avocado, cucumber, and lemon. So refreshingly great and this is always a must order for our family. (Definitely wouldn't recommend if you don't like lemon for obvious reasons haha) CHEF #1: This comes with tuna, spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, avocado, and cajun powder. Can't go wrong with this combo. Cajun powder wasn't too overwhelming. Highly recommend! CHEF #2: This comes with eel, spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, and avocado. Similar to a Caterpillar roll. I enjoyed Chef #1 more than #2, but would get both again. ABURI SALMON BELLY: This is the center loin of scottish salmon with yuzu and soy sauce. Melts in your mouth and is sooo tender. Love this! CRISPY RICE WITH SPICY TUNA/YELLOWTAIL: I love a crispy rice with spicy tuna. Sometimes they'll have a special with a different protein. I've had both the spicy tuna and yellowtail version, came out exactly as I expected. YUZU: This roll comes with yellowtail, spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, smelt egg, and avocado. Definitely a more refreshing roll with the yuzu and highly recommend. Always a must order for us! Hope you stop by if you are in the area and enjoy it as much as I do! :)

This place was my favorite place but this last time I came here the waitress said it was going to be 40 minute wait and it took 2 1/2 hours she could have been honest but we waited to long already to leave. This was so frustrating since we brought guest and waited so long... we will not be coming back to this place service was horrible and liers... I'm sure will find a better t

Solid sushi offering in Little Tokyo. We liked the modernized-traditional feel to the restaurant, with nice lighting. like Dahlia said, we were told which table to go to - versus being walked. I didn't mind it, but it was kind of a first. Our server was very friendly and helpful. The food was pretty good for the area. Nothing amazing, nothing average. All a solid B+. We also liked the later-than-average dinner hours, as we had just come from a nearby concert and there were few sushi options. I really enjoyed the striped mackerel. If you're mackerel-averse, give it a try (before going for Japanese mackerel - which I also love, but has a stronger flavor). the Black Cod sushi was interesting. I typically have it as an entree (and make it at home). In sushi form, while nice, for me it wasn't my favorite preparation. I don't typically eat dessert, but couldn't pass on the black sesame ice cream.

Been going here for years and this place never disappoints. The rolls are big, great happy hour and friendly service. We recently went with some friends and tried their new Shiso Spicy cocktail and it was just as good as their sushi. Never had anything here that disappointed, it's easily one of my fave spots in LA.

I think about the meal I had here quite often. It's such a small and cozy vibe but the sushi is incredibly fresh, the roll combos are great, and the presentation of their dishes is so unique and lovely. With the bar being integrated so well into the atmosphere, the chefs and servers give this place a great vibe and really elevate the dining experience. I cannot wait to go back!

Chef Kai was an amazing part of our experience at Sushi Enya. He thoroughly explained our dinner, each time our plate was served, and made spot-on recommendations! He observed our orders and began recommending more fattier/seared sushi options. The service with the staff was top-notch and attended to my boyfriend and me every couple of minutes without being overly intrusive. It was very cozy and warm inside and felt like I was eating at home with the pleasure of being served politely and respectfully.

Finally got to try the omakase! It was so amazing and everything was fresh. The amount of food was decent but Id say it was probably closer to 150$ rather than the 200 we paid. Overall it was a great experience and Im super happy I had the opportunity to try it. Service is always great here and the noise level is tolerable.

Made OpenTable reservation one week in advance but didn't realize there were standard table and Omakase reservation options. Walked in ready to spent $800 on Omakase but given a table in the back with no alternative. The good : delicious Uni Ikura Don and all Toros on the menu. The bad : Sashimi platter and Halibut platter not as good as the price you pay for. End up spending $300.

You can always trust to have a fantastic meal at Sushi Enya. I've been here several times and always have a delightful experience. The sushi is fresh and melts in your mouth. We ordered a mix of nigiri and sushi rolls and found them all to be very delicious. I also find their prices to be very fair for the quality that you get. The staff are all extremely kind and attentive. I would certainly come back when I am in the area.

One of my favorite sushi restaurant! Been coming here for the past 5 years and it never disappoints. There's always a line/wait so I try and make reservations whenever possible. It's not a very big restaurant but it's also not small, the best seat in the house is the sushi bar of course. The sushi here always taste very fresh and I love how they infuse truffle and caviar onto their menu items. And honestly I'm not usually a fan of uni, but this is one the places I can eat it and enjoy it. Perfect for a date or intimate dinner, I definitely recommend trying this place out if you haven't already

We have been to Sushi Enya multiple times. The sushi is some of the best I have had the chefs are at the front of the restaurant and put on quite a show. They have a good list of beers and sake. Expect to spend about $100 a person Service is spot on, and the restaurant has tiny inside and on a patio area. The ambience is casual. The noise level can be loud depending on the groups in the restaurant. Parking is on the street with meters.

Great sushi spot right in Little Tokyo! My roommates and I were craving sushi and decided to venture out to Sushi Enya, after having heard rave reviews from one of our roommates (and Tik Tok). We walked in and waited around 25-30 minutes--not horrible for a Sunday night. We decided on ordering two orders (4 pieces total) of the crispy rice with spicy yellowtail, the salmon lemon roll, albacore onion crunch roll, and the crunchy dragon roll. Spicy yellowtail crispy rice was phenomenal and left us all literally mind blown. Yes, the pricing is a little steep at $15.80/2 pieces, but the rice was perfectly crisp and they put a HEAP of yellowtail on each piece of rice. Of the rolls, I'd have to say the salmon lemon roll was my favorite. The salmon was fresh and cut thinly, and it paired nicely with the lemon and yuzu flavors. Albacore onion crunch was my second favorite, but thinking back about the roll, I wasn't really tasting much else other than the deep-fried onion flavor. The crunchy dragon roll had potential to be good, but the shrimp tempura was limp--as if it had been fried earlier in the day and was left to sit out until dinner service--and the bottom of the roll was so saturated in eel sauce that the roll disintegrated when you tried to pick it up. The eel sauce was also a little too heavy-handed for my liking. When the rolls come out, they look massive, considering that each roll has about 16 pieces and is sprawled out on a massive plate. However, the rolls are cut thin, so be aware of that. In case you need a gauge of how much to order, my roommates and I were perfectly satiated after our appetizer and 3 rolls.

Absolutely mouthwatering creative rolls along with and classical nigiri and sashimi. This may have been be the best Unagi I've ever tasted, and turned my date into a believer. We cannot wait to come back and try more dishes. The place is rather small and definitely worth making a reservation.

Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Atmosphere 5/5 First time here. We did the reservation because it was mother's day. I've been to little tokyo so many times but I haven't been here until now! The place is on the same street as the pupular ramen place. Parking will be hard so try to find the parking on the street or use the public parking space right across the street. I really enjoyed my sushi here and highly recommended to all sushi lovers. The sushi was hands down the best I ever had, especially the uni. Such good quality. The servers were very nice to us too. I got a glass if sake as well.

Very fresh fish which is the main thing! Unpretentiousness much appreciated. simple and satisfying.

Honestly I went here in 2020 and never forgot the experience! Perfect fresh sushi. Almost as good as Uni in Boston. Long story long, I could not find the name until recently. I went there again with my daughter, another "sushihead", and it was as amazing as we had remembered. Delish- more into the nigiri than the rolls but all in all devino!

人生不過百年， 終究是緣分二字，對錯並不重要， 擁有的好好珍惜， 逝去的隨風而逝，別太在意，有時淡淡的也自有一番風味～ 說到食物通膨的現象， 一樣的餐廳， 2022 年跟2023年比， 漲了20%， 本來就不便宜，現在有更貴，快吃不起飯的感覺，版上一定很多人喜歡日料，前陣子飯友要離開美國幾個月，說帶我去吃頓好的， 最後選定這家我去過的Sushi Enya, 以前跟版上的美女去過一次，可能一直在說話，都沒有注意到他們的環境， 員工會一直大聲的跟進來的客戶打招呼， 這次來感覺像新撰組那樣，比較吵鬧， 才發現， 怎麼有點像在菜市場鬧區吃飯的feel~omakase 連甜點總共是21 道菜， 比我上次一直碎碎念的Kato, overprice 的滷肉飯米其林一星還要貴些， 當然，吃很飽， 東西也很好吃， 吃 omakase 是灰熊幸福的， 就是我永遠不知道， 一盤盤精美的魚片到底是什麼魚， 只能秀圖片，沒有辦法解說，喜歡吃日料的可以慢慢欣賞～

Excellent sushi restaurant - I recommend sitting at the counter if you can score some seats as the craftsmanship in these master chefs is fun to watch. Tasting the results is even more fun and enjoyable as their creations are absolutely delicious and often very unique. I really enjoyed my dining experience here - reservations are HIGHLY recommended. Plenty of street and lot parking available all around this area of DTLA.

This place was good. Quick seating at the bar on a Friday night no reservation needed for 2. Excellent bar service with sushi chef taking your order and preparing in front of us. Ordered the toro hand roll first was delicious melt in your mouth and a good size. Next we moved on to the blur fin tuna roll. This was just ok. Not enough tuna and was a huge cucumber in it which was the majority of what I tasted. We proceeded to rolls and got the 911 and the lemon roll. The 911 was delicious. Was on top of a sesame oil base. Very fresh. The lemon was better in my opinion loved the lemony touch. Lastly we got the yuzu roll. This was a bit more lemony a bit more tangy and has tempura shrimp which was a perfect amount of crisp. Loved that And was my favorite. All the rolls were cut in like 16 piece cuts but don't be deceived as they were cut thin about half the size of other restaurant normal rolls. Rolls were about 21-25 dollars each so pretty on par with other sushi of this caliber. The ambience is nice feels like you are in Japan with the design and the chefs all welcome you In Japanese when you walk in. A great experience. Service was very attentive and quick kept our drinks coming and sushi was quick. Tbh I've had better for cheaper was expecting to be blown away but was not. It's good tho.

I'm really confused how does this place have more than 1 star. Maybe at one time they were good but wow the sushi was not fresh at all. I'm terrified I am going to sick because of what I just ate. Jesus Christ. Please step up your game and get fresh fish.

Great sushi spot in Little Tokyo next to Daikokuya. We were able to walk-in on a Friday night and snag a spot at the bar, no wait! They have chef specials, regular menu and an assortment of sakes and drinks. We got: - toro hand roll 10/10 melt in your mouth - blue fin hand roll 9/10 also yummy but heavy on the cucumber - lemon roll 9/10 so good if you love lemon! - 911 9/10 liked this as well, always need to get my spicy tuna kick - yuzu roll 10/10 this was my favorite. The perfect combo of citrus, crunch and freshness. I'd order this again. The rolls are big and cut thinly so it seems like you're getting way more. We were definitely full after 3.

I would give this restaurant 5 stars for ambiance and food quality, but they completely bombed on service. I went there with a group of 5 friends and we asked to split the bill. They refused to do that but they offered to run multiple credit cards at the end. We will get back to that later. The restaurant is small, nice and convenient to Little Tokyo. The waiter was unfortunately easily confused. He got some of the order wrong and literally forgot to submit the orders for two of the people (including me). After waiting for minutes for raw fish, I asked him and the order amazingly appeared a couple minutes later. The food was actually good. The fish was fresh and flavorful. The rice was well cooked and seasoned. The variety of fish on the chirashi plate was great (perhaps with too much salmon roe). The sushi rolls themselves had good ingredients but were sliced so thin that they literally fell apart on the way to your mouth. Back to the bill. We did the math by ourselves and told them how much to put on each card, assuming we could add tips individually. They ran 2/3 cards normally but they put an automatic 20% tip on the whole tables bill on the last card. This was not disclosed on the menu, wasn't mentioned when we were seated, placed the orders, or handed over credit cards. They refused to fix the issue or address the concerns of the poor customer who wound up with an irreversible and unauthorized $80 tip. It's unfortunate that they're service killed the dinner and this review.

What's happened to this place?? Used to come here with two good friends and leave happy & full. Today the portions were tiny (except for the rice there was plenty of that) and the fish was paper thin. Waitress was okay just had a bit of a language barrier no problem, it can happen. The wood slats on the floor were broken. I had to use the flashlight on my phone to find the restroom. What the heck!?!

Favorite sushi spot in LA - the ambiance is quaint and peaceful + the fish always tastes fresh. Love trying new rolls when I come and never disappointed

I had fun here when I went last July with my gf. This is the first Enya and the space is nice and kind of intimate. Their omakase course is delicious. My favorite piece was the wagyu topped with shredded chu-toro. Kei is a great chef and fun to talk to. He told us about himself and how he moved from Fukuoka so as to have a better work-life balance. Cool dude for sure. I'm not really a drinker, but there were two guys beside us who bought shots of sake for the bar. They got drunk, and kept telling me and my gf to have kids in the future, because as he put it, "Kids are trash, but they're the best thing to happen to you." It was fun watching the chefs take as many shots as the two guys but not get drunk. The service remained great all throughout. Will return, but since omakase is pricey, maybe just a la carte next time.

Best birthday dinner I've ever had!! Both my friend and I had such a great experience dining here. We sat at the bar and the service was phenomenal and super attentive to our needs. Everything we ordered was *CHEFS KISS*! the black cod stood out the most to us. It was sooo tasty, I can eat 20 more of those. Overall, I still dream of the sushi from sushi enya. Probably one of the best sushi I've had in a minute. I will definitely be coming back to try the omakase next time!

First legit omakase experience and it didn't disappoint. Cousin made reservations for my birthday and had the time of my life. From start to finish, every plate was so good and tasted so fresh. Definitely would come again
