Sushi Enya Sawtelle

Delicious, fresh, delicate fish with interesting finishes, like crunchy fried onions and an amazing green chili sauce. We made it there for happy hour which had a great selection of sushi plates and good value for money. Staff are very welcoming and attentive, and the decor and atmosphere are wonderful.

We love, sushi Enya! As soon as you come in, you’re giving a big welcome, everybody that works there is so attentive and really nice. Japanese kosher just does service much better, and you feel that here in the restaurant. The ambience and design of the restaurant is stunning Japanese design. The sushi here is elevated, each roll has a combination of many subtle flavors. My favorite is the lemon roll & Unagi.

Very impressed with the sushi! The portions were generous—much more than you get at most places—and the quality was top-notch. Everything tasted fresh, and the customer service was excellent. Highly recommend!

Finally got to try Sushi Enya and was pleasantly surprised. Super friendly staff, modern and cozy interior and most of all very fresh fish. We haven't had uni this caliber in a long time, go Sanata Barbara uni!

Our experience at Sushi Enya was absolutely amazing the service was incredible, and the foood was absolutely delicious. Everything was perfectly prepared, and the flavors were outstanding. We have an unforgettable Valentin’s dinner, made even more special by the exceptional service from both the waitstaff and the chefs. Their attention to detail and hospitality truly made the night perfect. Highly recommend this place.

DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY on their signature hand roll! I saw their reel on Instagram showcasing this hand roll with uni, chopped toro, scallop and truffle. This is what I got in reality - uni, truffle and scallop was decent; but the amount of toro was almost pathetic, let alone the suspicious brown color. Looks like they used the “toro” that cannot be served in other dishes and just chopped it up and jam it in there. Also they forgot about this hand roll for a solid 15min after our other food was served. Nonetheless, other food we ordered was decent quality.

The short answer is that the sushi was great. Come here if you are interested in multiple variations of Toro, fish sourced from Japan, and a very creative searing program. Beyond that, I found myself really enjoying the atmosphere. The ambiance of the restaurant is fantastic from the lighting to the wood to the plates to their focus on presenting the food in the best way possible. This really was a feast for the eyes. Heartily recommended.

We were there recently. It's atmosphere is welcoming and very warm as soon as you get in. We walk-in randomly and they arranged a table quickly. BEST garlic edameme I ate ever. Period. We had sushi amd 2 rolls. Both were very fresh and tasteful. Now don't expect a cheap dining here but you'll have a nice dinner. 🍣
