Iroha Sushi of Tokyo in Studio City

Nice cozy restaurant. We came early at 11 for sushi and we were almost the only ones. The food was great quality and tasted delicious. All the seafood on all the dishes were soft and fresh. First the orange panther came out (salmon, shrimp tempura, lemony). Delicious. It came with fried onion crisps but i think it tastes better without the crisps. Then came out the small seafood ramen which they fully loaded with seafood. It was great, very flavorful. Came with fried onion crisps and finely chopped green onions which did add to the flavor. The dynamite was okay. Had better at other places. Baked black cod roll was interesting. It had a different softer texture sushi rice and had a sweeter milder sushi taste. Last was the baked 5 mushroom roll. It was heavy on the sushi vinegar and the Asparagus overtook much of the flavor, but i enjoyed it because I love mushrooms. I would come out again to try out the other things on the menu

All I got to say is that this place is delicious! I had a late night craving of sushi and with this place open till midnight I decided to drop by. Did not disappoint! What ever regular rolls you typically order, this place flips them for the better. Even down to the Philadelphia roll! Tuna on crispy brown rice, mussels, D.O.C., the one wrapped in cucumber served with eel sauce... there was not one roll that did not blow my mind! Plus I love the atmosphere here compared to other bourgie spots you would need to go to for this quality sushi.

Update: this quickly became our favorite sushi place on Ventura and weve been several dozen times. We recently visited again post covid this past weekend with some friends and had a wonderful time. Ive tried almost everything on the menu at this point and have yet to come across something that wasnt really good.From sushi, sashimi, ramen, or rolls you cant go wong with anything here.The food, staff and service are all excellent for any type of occasion.Weve been here twice now. The first time we sat at a table and the second time we sat at the bar. When eating sushi I find that sitting at the bar is far more enjoyable as you have a close, direct connection with the chef as he prepares your food.The fish here is always exceptionally delicious, the Toro sushi and sashimi is some of the most moth watering melt in your mouth tuna belly Ive had anywhere in LA.Highly recommended to anyone who is a lover of sushi or just wants to try a delightful place to eat with incredible food.

It was simply the best. Very delicious without any fishy aftertaste. The service is fast and we didnt have to wait to be seated. Lucky or not we were able to sit inside. My favorite was the ceviche sushi, it doesnt have any rice which is perfect for summer or if youre looking for something without carbs. The seafood spicy soup was also very good. I definitely recommend this restaurant. A well deserved ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have been visiting Iroha for few years. Before and after pandemic.Food: I like to stick to sushi and rolls. Soups are good as well. Rest of the entries could be hit and miss (lamb chops).Atmosphere : much pleasant when it less crowded.Service: helpfulWill keep visiting (would have give 4 and half stars if that was an option).

Great sushi! Everything we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented and delicious. Not much space between tables. Servers were decent but not particularly friendly.

My fave sushi spot in the valley. I’ve been going for maybe 15 years. Always delicious sushi and always good service. The outdoor seating they added is cute and nice too. I actually prefer it now to inside.

Ok… I have been living in Los Angeles now for 10 years and have tried ALL MANNER of sushi joints, from the quirky new-age Hollywood spots, to the up class Malibu spots like Nobu, to the mom and pop family-run for generations spots like Brother’s and Little Brother’s Sushi in Woodland Hills… and THIS SPOT IS THE TOP. I haven’t had one bad thing from here, and the Orange Panther is the single best sushi roll I have ever had from anywhere in the world, hands down. Try it. You won’t regret it. I don’t know what it is, but the fish is SOOOO fresh and the ingredients so perfectly balanced that eating here feels like eating ART. I always leave more than satisfied: I leave here content with my life as an embodied soul in metaphysical equilibrium with God and the universe, simply because this sushi is THAT damn good.

Overpriced average sushi. The nigiri prices match those of some of the highest caliber restaurants that Ive been to. The quality falls short. There is no ambiance here. The restaurant serves as a post mates hub. Taking mass orders in and out withtrash littered around the sushi bar, workers sitting and eating inside. A hub of sorts. In fact, there was no sushi bar to even sit at this night. Just underpaid work makingCalifornia rolls for the masses. Not one Itamae in sight. I didnt get anything bad, but nothing that I tried gave me the thought, oh.….. I want some more of that.I had a last minute date and all my regular place on Ventura was fully reserved. It seemed everywhere that I called was booked as well. Except this place. Now I knowwhy. One star added for last minute availability. I do not recommend if you value nigiri or sashimi. Much better choices with great ambiance and an Authentic Japaneseexperience. They dont even pour your sake for you here. No description of the fish when it is brought to your table, its just slapped on the table with zero etiquette or presentation. If your a roll person- this may be the placefor you. BTW- the date went extremely well regardless

Iroha is a must every time I visit LA! The albacore is fresh every time and the crab hand roll is extremely filling. They no longer had the seating out front this time which was disappointing but the service was still great. Brought some first timers with this time and they all enjoyed their meals as well!
