Sushi Palace

had an incredible experience at Sushi Palace on Melrose. From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm and attentive, making us feel welcome right away. The décor strikes the perfect balance between stylish and comfortable, great for date night or catching up with friends. The sushi itself was outstanding. Every piece tasted fresh and beautifully presented, especially the A5 wagyu and the chef’s special rolls which were truly next level. The cocktails and sake pairings complemented the food perfectly. I also appreciated the little touches, like prompt service and staff who were happy to answer questions about the menu. All in all, it felt like a hidden gem on Melrose, and I’m already planning my next visit. Highly recommend.

I hosted a girls’ night out women’s networking event here with 16 guests, and the service and food were absolutely amazing! The owner and staff were attentive all night and made sure everything ran smoothly. They brought out two gorgeous sushi boats — the sushi was fresh, beautifully presented, and so flavorful. Highly recommend the Dragon Roll, Spider Roll, and their ceviche — all outstanding. For drinks, the Bubble Bath cocktail (served in a mini bathtub!) was a huge hit with my guests, and I personally loved their signature mules — perfect if you enjoy sweeter cocktails. Overall, Sushi Palace Hollywood was the perfect spot for a fun, memorable evening. I’ll definitely be back and recommend it to anyone looking for great sushi, unique drinks, and top-notch service!

Austin is 100% great service , I’m writing this to express my profound appreciation for experience I had at your restaurant . Austin has truly managed the highest standards of hospitality and service that are rare to experience these days Your staff's professionalism and attention to detail, from the welcoming hostess to the attentive waitstaff, reflect the perfect coordination within your team. Every dish served was wonderfully prepared, with flavors that were nothing short of a gastronomic journey. The presentation was impeccable, reflecting the aesthetic creativity of your chefs. anyway we will go back again for sure 😁🧡

Absolutely was surprised at how much I loved this place. It’s a Japanese German fusion, the fish quality was fantastic. The roll we got was alright not my favorite but probably because of the cream cheese. Sashimi was great and the German dumplings were fantastic! Our waitress Simona was a pleasure, will definitely be back!

So beautiful and fantasy like. Felt like a princess eating here. Food was beautifully arranged and presented and very fresh tasting 🍣 sushi. It was a perfect place to celebrate our 20 year anniversary. There was a bar and gorgeous bathroom

I really wanted to like this place. The owner was very nice and the service was solid, but unfortunately that’s where the positives end. The food was genuinely awful. The nigiri fish was poor quality and overloaded with wasabi, the rolls were completely flavorless, and the toro was fishy and chewy when it should have been rich and buttery. The meal started off on the wrong foot with stale miso soup and aburi crispy rice that was so overcooked it tasted like a cinder block. I’ve never been curb stomped, but I imagine that’s exactly what this crispy rice experience would taste like. To make matters worse, the lighting was bizarre and tacky, totally killing any chance of ambiance. For a dinner that ran $70–80, this was nowhere near acceptable. Good service and a clean restaurant can’t save food this bad. Need to mention that the music was on point though. Not worth a cent of the meal. I won’t be back. Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Music: 5

Happy Hour callout!!! The scoop on Sushi Palace is that it’s a successful sushi chain from Germany w its first USA outpost as this location. That explains the German rolls amuse bouche and spaetzle on the menu. Ignore the purple velvet chairs and bright pink lights that give the place a 90’s club vibe bc the happy hour is fantastic! Not only are there several classic rolls to choose from, but they are all FULL SIZE for HH prices! And there are other non-sushi items on the HH menu like Japanese pork BBQ bao slider. Everything was tasty, the service great and we definitely plan on going back.

I had an amazing experience at Sushi Palace! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm, stylish, and inviting. It was perfect for a relaxed night out or a special occasion. The food was truly exceptional; every sushi roll was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into each dish. The drinks were just as impressive, with creative cocktails and a great selection that paired perfectly with the meal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. If you love sushi or just great food in general, Sushi Palace is an absolute must-visit. I can’t wait to go back! 🍣✨

Sushi Palace is honestly one of the best sushi spots in Hollywood. The food is super fresh, the portions are solid, and the presentation makes everything look like it came out of a high-end kitchen. You can tell they actually care about the quality. The vibe is relaxed, the service is friendly, and food came out fast. It's the kind of place where you walk in for a quick bite and end up staying longer because everything tastes that good. If you want sushi that's consistent, flavorful, and worth every penny, this is the spot. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Great service and food Nice ambiance and aesthetic would definitely recommend giving the restaurant a try!

Genuinely the worst sushi place I've been to. The service was slow and awkward. Brought the wrong thing to tables. Rice was crazy over cooked. Not actually a full bar. Just beer wine and saki. Crap fish. Ambiance looks like the sale section from a Michael's and dollar store lighting. Not worth the over priced crap.

Not many places warrant me actually leaving a bad review, but after my experience last night on a Saturday, I hope this helps them improve. Came here last minute because it was the only place that had open reservations for the rest of the night with plenty of openings, and we quickly found out why. Our reservation was at 7:45 PM and I noticed that they had happy hour until 8PM while making the reservation. However it took them a while to seat us and they did not even give us the menu until 8PM and when we asked about it he "wouldn't have gotten to us on time anyway". It took them a while to even give us water, and once he took our order he left the menus on the table with us. They were out of a lot of the sake options and menu options as well, and when pouring out our $110 bottle of sake, he definitely spilled a lot of it on the table. Now to the food, it took over 40 minutes to get anything at all and in between items it was always another waiting game. We noticed all the tables around us had no food either. Sadly, all the food was lackluster. The Garlic Prawn Noodles were bland and seemed microwaved, the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice had an uneven rice ratio, and the rolls were all mid and not memorable. We were not a fan of the flavors on the Tuna Bomb. Best thing was surprisingly the Karaage which did not look like your typical Japanese karaage at all but at least it was hot. I usually give places grace if the service is incredible at least, but it was the last straw. Nothing was done for how long we all had to wait. We asked for the check and he read the price to us and then said "Oh wait no. It's definitely higher than that." Then went away and added gratuity. It was a fixed 18% gratuity for some of the worst service I've ever had and for food that took forever as well and was so underwhelming. They are extremely understaffed. Plenty of better sushi spots in LA and we have definitely learned our mistake of not making a reservation elsewhere.

We had such an amazing experience here! The food was delicious I loved the baked salmon roll and our drinks were exceptional the ambience is the perfect balance between intimate and luxury inside and the staff was phenomenal I can't wait to come back had a memorable girls night

I stopped by Sushi Palace earlier this year with some family to celebrate my birthday, and it was such a great experience! The waiter who helped us was incredibly kind and made us feel so welcomed. They even surprised us with complimentary dishes and mochi, which made the night feel extra special The food was fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere was relaxed and inviting They also have happy hour deals from 5 to 8 PM that include both food and drinks definitely a bonus

if i could give 10 stars i would. We always sit at the bar and always get premium service for happy hour. The food is spectacular! i've eaten here maybe 13 times and it is always spit on!! The place looks like an upscale vegas lounge. I love the atmosphere here. They also play great music. I love feeling like i'm not in west hollywood...it has a nice vibe to it!

Ambiance was nice. But the sushi is probably the worst sushi i have had in my life. Not fresh at all. It tasted fishy and not fresh. Service was also not good.

Such a cute place! Sushi Palace team is such a vibe and informative on the menu recommendations. The sushi boat is great for those wanting to try different sushi. Thank you to the hostess for being welcoming, the waiting team for being kind and the recommendations, and to the chef. The food was so good . Thank you

Had a great experience here. The sushi was fresh, well presented, and delicious. The service was attentive and the atmosphere was nice. Highly recommend. Will be back again !!!

Giving this place three stars because I hated it and my date loved it. Interesting decor that screams lounge more than sushi restaurant. I didnt hate the decor but it was unexpected. Absolutely terrible service especially since the place was empty. Food was blah.

I've been wanting to check this place out for awhile now and I'm so happy the day arrived! The vibe is cool, the lighting, art and the huge booth my friend Freddie and me chose - all fab. The server, Robbie, was so down to earth and sweet. We spent a long time chatting with him & we came to the conclusion that he's going to be a big time film director. The chef, alex, is TOP NOTCH. Sushi is my favorite food and he made magic for us. I loved everything. We chatted with him too and learned that he studied all sorts of different cuisine. This fusion he's got going on here WORKS. Can't wait to return!

Wow wow wow !!! This is the best place I've ever been! Not just sushi but best food ever!!! Love the staff, the ambience they have going on in here, the vibes. First off the food, I'm a big boy and have eaten everywhere.. but when I come to a new spot (randomly found this by the way) and every single item we tried was a flavor I've never experienced at 40yrs old thats impressive!!! The Newport roll is hands down the best roll I've ever had. The Easy peezy lemon squeezeeee was out of this world! Got to meet the owner and chef who were pleasant people along with our server. This place will be the next big thing! Can't wait to come out here again!'!!! Highly recommend!

Service and food was mediocre. The experience ruined my friend's birthday dinner. The waiter took too long bringing out the food. I showed up late and my friend's were upset and said for me not.to.order anything because it would take half an hour to receive. I ordered a drink from.the bar to avoid the wait. The drink was great but I was told the sushi wasn't good, ny friend's rice was mushy and it just wasn't worth the drives that people took from the valley, Lancaster and wherever else.

we decided to come to this place last minute for my friends birthday because we were in the area and it was the only place with reservations available. Huge mistake on our part. It was supposedly happy hour until 8pm and we got sat 7:50 and the server didn't give us a menu or come to us until 8:05 and when we asked for the happy hour menu he said it was too late. Normally most places would let you put in at least one order at this point, but he said even if he gave us the menu "he wouldn't have gotten to us in time anyways." Then when we finally decided to order, they were out of half of the sales on their menu, as well as half of their menu items. Okay now to the food... it took over 40 minutes to come out and we were starving at this point. The garlic prawn noodles tasted like it was microwaved, extremely tasteless and dry. The spicy tuna crispy rice had really hard rice and the tuna had no flavor. All the rolls were really tiny and had no notable flavor. They didn't even give us soy sauce plates until the very last minute. Anyways... this place definitely seems like it's extremely understaffed and was not equipped to handle a full house on a Saturday night. I probably would not come back.

Hands down the best sushi I had this year! The crabmeat was real crab, delicious and fresh. The drinks were superb! They have a really great happy hour menu, highly recommend to try out. I ended up also doing the omakase, quality was *chefs kiss*, can't wait to go back! Crazy part is we can on a Saturday night, around 7:30 and there was barely any people!! The decor and music was 11/10

I had an amazing experience at Sushi Palace! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm, stylish, and inviting. It was perfect for a relaxed night out or a special occasion.

I went with me and my friend it was my first time and I had a great experience I ordered the tomatoes posta it was delicious it was a little pre birthday celebration

First time going to Sushi Palace Hollywood and had the worst experience! After ordering our Sushi (like 6 rolls and waiting 40 minutes for them to come and only to say they ran out of crab). Horrible!! It's like running out of burger patties at in n out and only having the bread. So what are we supposed to eat?!?! If we would have known we would not have waited. We ended up having to order all raw and couldn't get anything with crab. We talked to the manager and he kept saying "I will take care of you and I'm sorry." When the bill came the manager did not do anything for us. It's not the money but why say something "I'll make it up to you." And not do anything. Service was awful. One star! Not to mention everything they brought out was fishy . I don't recommend this place. We left hungry and still paid 200.00

Received the best service from our waiter Jaylin (forgive the misspelling). He did an exceptional job making sure we were satisfied with each dish & made sure we had everything we needed. He also made a great recommendation of the matcha dessert to complete our meal. The sushi was fairly priced and paired well with our garlic edamame. Lastly, the old fashioned was a great compliment to my meal. Definitely coming back! It's always nice to have great food with amazing customer service!

Delicious lychee martinis and chicken karagee & shy hitana drink is super good haven't had anything like it

Happy hour here is amazing. Was actually heading somewhere else for dinner when we drove past the sign and were instantly intrigued and decided to change plans - absolutely no regrets!! You'll be so pleasantly surprised the moment you step up to the carpet studded entrance and into the dark yet incredibly aesthetic room. Even the restrooms are beautiful. Service was attentive and thorough from start to finish, and I never once felt rushed. Now onto the food.. We spent almost $200 and that's factoring in their incredible happy hour prices, so that's just a testament to how good their food is. Besides the few standard-yet-well-made rolls, I ordered pretty much one of every unique item they offered and everything blew me away. Absolutely recommend the crispy tuna rice trio, japanese bbq pulled pork bun sliders, and the uni shooter mainly for the experience hahaha. The fish is so fresh and portions are just fantastic here. The last thing that raised the bar for me was the luxurious takeout boxes.. I really felt like I was fine dining but without the outrageous inflated price tag.. but considering everything that Sushi Palace offers and how much I enjoyed it, i'd be glad to keep handing my money over to them. I can't wait to be back!

Amazing spot, Easily one of the best sushi restaurants in LA, with excellent service and a unique, inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 Recommended dish: Wagyu

Sushi palace was so amazing! All the rolls were delicious! Especially the crispy rices! My favorite was the drink selection- specifically the cocktail with a rubber ducky in a bath! So cute!

Amazing sushi, super fresh fish, great service, and a chill atmosphere. Sushi Palace on Melrose is my new go-to spot happy hour spot!

One of the best sushi I've ever had and service was heartfelt and amazing **** I was dancing and having fun. Great quality conversations and so much fun ***

We had a blast took my friend for her birthday. It was so delicious staff was great 10/10

this spot was great! i came here with my sister to celebrate and we happened to make it just in time for their happy hour. there's only were such good prices on drinks, sushi, and other apps. we ended up also ordering off the main menu because we wanted to try a lot! our server was so attentive and checked on in the perfect amount! food came out well paced. everything tasted great. i noticed with the nigiri, there was a lot of rice compared to the fish but i didn't mind too much as the rice was actually really good! the highlight of our night and the reason for our visit was actually the little bathtub drink! it was sooooo cute and it tasted amazing! the restaurant is right on the corner of the street and has a red carpet so it felt fun walking in. as you can see from the photos, the restaurant is lit with some glow/colored lighting, so if your eyes are sensitive, it's a bit of a trip haha! the actual table we sat at was SO unique-- there was almost like a floral arch thing enclosing me in my seat with a neon pink lit brick wall. super random but it was fun to sit there. they also had regular tables and booth seating. i really loved my experience here and would 100% visit again. the only thing that was annoying was they had a valet sign in the front with an arrow, but the valet refused to take our car because of a closed event. so i would say don't display the valet sign! other valets didn't take us either so we were lucky to find street parking.

Good happy hour. Decent service but something feels unauthentic about the place. The crispy rice was super greasy... The spicy tuna was so spicy had a hard time after that. Decor was kinda cheap as well. But definitely a good happy hour. Wouldn't come here for full price

Best Sushi in Town. Service was amazing. Aesthetics are incredible. Strongly recommend.

Came for an event a while back. Amazing. Very interesting combinations and the presentation of each dish was superb. Service was excellent and the ambiance and decor was nicely done and inviting. My only rewound be the name of the spot doesn't fit with the place. The name feels generic whereas this spot is anything but generic! Highly recommend

On the corner of Highland and Melrose. Pretty neat decor and clean. There is a little bar area and there is outdoor dining seating also. The servings are decent and the food is prepped fresh. It tasted good and properly cooked. We had the Chicken Gyoza, Spicy Tuna rolls, fried shrimp, Caesar salad and some sake. All was good and good service. Will return if in the area.

The food is amazing! The service is impeccable and the dishes are unique!! They also do live music there some days. Great for fine dining, family vibe or coming to mingle!

What a gem! Food was super delicious and decently priced. They have happy hour until 8 also and the menu looked great, I'll have to come back and check it out!

Very wonderful restaurant owner walks around and greats everyone, very fun environment.

Had dinner with friends here and it was a great experience. This restaurant is nice, clean, with great ambience. The sushi was delicious and the cocktails were tasty and interesting. Our server Austin was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend this place!

Amazing service, yummy drinks, and top-tier sushi. Definitely recommend for a friday night! Shoutout to Robbie for being such a great waiter!!

Booked a dinner reservation for 4 on a double date with family friends and we enjoyed the service, food and ambiance! Luxurious dining area with comfy dining chairs! Definitely a great place to gather with small group of friends. The food was unique and delicious, not your typical sushi place. The restroom seemed well maintained and stocked, cute decorations for photo op/selfie in the ladies room. The staff were knowledgeable about their menu items and made great recommendations! The drinks were tasty and we enjoyed everything we had on the happy hour menu and the regular menu. They offer cocktails, wine and beer. Perfect dining spot before catching an LA show! Parking is limited but we found a belated behind the building that is a very short corner walk to the restaurant. I would love to return and try other menu items the next time we plan a day out in LA again.

It was my first and last time to go there! Absolutely disgusting sushi place. Not fresh at all. Very disappointed

Absolutely was surprised at how much I loved this place. It's a Japanese German fusion, the fish quality was fantastic. The roll we got was alright not my favorite but probably because of the cream cheese. Sashimi was great and the German dumplings were fantastic! Our waitress Simona was a pleasure, will definitely be back!

Loved the ambiance! They played great music. Food and drinks were great! All the staff was very nice. Would go again!

The food and ambiance were great, and the staff had a friendly, welcoming attitude. The only downside was the lack of service structure once we were seated. After our food arrived, our server seemed to forget about our table, we had to flag them down for everything from drink refills to ordering additional items. When it came time to pay, we asked to settle the check and were told they'd come over after bussing another table. While we understand multitasking is part of the job, it felt odd to prioritize a recently vacated table over guests still seated and ready to wrap up. It feels like the restaurant is going for a high-end, polished vibe (which we appreciated) but some of the service execution didn't quite match. The team seems full of potential, but perhaps still gaining experience. Waiter also charged us for someone else's meal.. and they're currently trying to figure out a solution. That said, the food was solid and we'd be open to giving it another shot. Just hoping for a smoother, more attentive service experience next time!

Service was okay, server was friendly but that initial assistance to get our waters took a bit longer than one would expect usually. Ambiance was different, inviting, just a tad too bright, and fun. It was a bit slower/empty it seems. They had these three semi-booths that were very decorative. Those that love photos would have enjoyed that. It was strange that on a cooler night, they kept the front door open. So, it was kind of chilly throughout our dinner. Maybe that contributed to the colder feeling of the overall place. We got the drink that had the Tajín rim, forgot what it was called but it was tasty. There is no liquor, only wine and sake (didn't notice if there was beer, probably). The food was okay. They had different type of rolls that one doesn't usually see, so, that was cool; but it wasn't anything astounding. By 9:30 PM, my friend and I were the only ones left in there, so, we got out of there around then and went elsewhere. Don't see myself going back.

Chill ambience, ehh parking in Hollywood is always a battle but the drinks were worth it Happy hour!

Went during happy hour. Average food, and I would have been upset had we not paid HH prices. Feels like a Vegas scene in the middle of LA. No thanks.

My husband and I went to Hollywood's newest sushi spot for a date night! We made a reservation ahead of time and there was no issue seating us right away. Based on the outside we couldn't see inside so we weren't sure what the ambiance would be like but it was a very classy spot with funky seating options and a nice bar. The restaurant just opened but I think it would be very cool if they started doing live music or had a piano player as the vibe is upscale. The service was quick and our waiter was very attentive to us all night. They even gave us complimentary buns to try with a garlic butter which was very yummy! One issue was that we ordered a crab hand roll but they brought a cut roll instead. However, the waiter realized it was wrong right away and still gave us the cut roll on the house. We also ordered a variety of apps and sushi rolls and my favorites included the Truffle Risotto and the Burrata Roll. For dessert we got the Reeses Roll which featured sweet rice, chocolate, and peanut butter. This was my first time having a sweet sushi roll and the presentation was really nice! I think with a name like Sushi Palace we were expecting a greater selection of sushi rolls but instead were met with a limited selection of unique sushi rolls featuring atypical ingredients like onions, burrata, and pumpkin. As long as you're adventurous and not expecting California and Philadelphia rolls you'll enjoy it here.

A must try!!! This place is a hidden gem!!! Everything was delicious!!! The fish quality is so good! We couldn't get enough of all the sushi. The oysters were some of the best I've ever had. The scallop sashimi was unbelievable. So flavorful and the presentation was beautiful. We tried the crispy rice as well. The rice was perfectly crispy and not hard. The cocktails were so delicious and fun. I'm not a big chocolate fan, but their chocolate dessert was delicious! The staff is super nice and friendly. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back .

This is the second time we've ordered from Sushi O Palace, and it's been very disappointing. They have a great location, but they should really invest more in fresh fish instead of spending on logos and packaging to make things look better. Nothing was fresh just the edamame we ended up having to throw most everything in the garbage. It's disappointing because we genuinely wanted to support them.
