  8. Pretty, Pretty Good!
    This was really good sushi from a lover of CA rolls, Unagi and Miso Soup. I am not the most adventurous, but I know what I like ... and that is, clean - affordable - quality sushi. This place fits the bill. In fact, I found it through citysearch and saw all of the fantastic reviews and thought, why not? So, I did and here I am adding to them. There are a couple of bad reviews, ignore them. This p...

  9. Super Fresh Fish! Better than Japan!
    Wow! Better than I've had in Japan and that's where the fish is coming from. How's that possible? Started with the King Crab Sunomono appetizer is fantastic it had the sea salt flavor from the sea. Their uni is so sweet and fresh. Love their live sweet shrimp. Most times I get the heads fried like popcorn shrimp. Their spanish mackerel is soooooo good with grated ginger and ponzu sauce...

  11. Super good sashimi!
    The sashimi is outa control! You're at the right place if you want great sushi and sashimi. But if you're looking for good sushi and a place to drink after you should check out Ike Sushi. Sushi Go 55 is da SPOT!

  15. Favorite Sushi Restaurant in LA
    Sushi Go 55 consistently has the freshest and best-tasting fish I've had in LA. This is a traditionalist's sushi place - if you're looking for out-of-the-box bizarro rolls, go somewhere else. But for straightforward, high-quality sushi and sashimi, you can't go wrong here. I'm shocked to read stories about sub-par service - my experience is that the service is attentive without being oppressive. ...

    This place has some really nice fresh sushi that's pretty affordable. The miso is so good that it's worth coming here for the soup alone. Lunch is pretty busy so go early.

  17. Very good, but also expensive
    I went to Sushi Go 55 after hearing about it on NPR's Off Ramp. I recommend sitting at the bar and letting the sushi chef prepare what he wants for you, omakase style. The fish was fresh, the sushi very flavorful, but definitely not for the faint of heart! If you're bold, try the live sweet shrimp sushi. As its name implies, the shrimp are killed right in front of you and go from aquarium ...

  18. Good Food + Bad Location + Bad Service=3 stars
    I really don't know if I would come here again. The food was excellent (I was surprised by how good it was actually) but the service was very below average. The servers took a long time to let me order even when I waved them over. The location is annoying to get to but wouldn't hurt this place if their service was any better. The food would be the only reason for me to come here again. Go if you ...

  20. This is one of the best sushi bars that Little Tokyo has to offer.
    I say that because I been going to Little Tokyo snice 1976 when its was all Japanese.. Not to many americans.. Sushi Go Go has fresh fish but most american don't know about fish being in season, so sometime your not going to get something your looking to eat, which is good because any other Sushi bar will give it to you. As being a customer your, Sushi Chef will always remember what you like to e...

    When I saw that this restaurant had five stars and such low prices, I thought "Wow, this must be one of those super cool holes in the wall that you only stumble upon by accident or have to hear about through your friends," but I was wrong. The sushi was sub average at best (I could get the same quality at any higher end supermarket for much less money) and the service was absolutely abysmal. It...

    Been to this place a couple of times now and each time has been a good experience. The sushi/sashimi always seems fresh, the service is good and you get good value for your money. There are some really tasty dishes on the appetizer/specials menu in addition to good sushi. This is one of the better places in the Little Tokyo area. I can't say it's the best because I haven't been to every one o...

    Just went to Sushi Go 55 again for the thousandth time. Alway a favorite. Everytime I have a craving for sushi, I always end up here.

    Don't go here if you are looking for seaweed salad. You would be better off going to the grocery store downstairs. But, if you let the chef guide you to what is most fresh, you should have a great meal.

  27. Low key, fresh fish, interesting dining spot.
    Sushi Go-55 is a low key sushi joint located in the little Toyko district of Downtown. Fish here as been good quality, although last time the toro didn't seem too fresh (was way too cold and hard). They offer freshly grated wasabi, though at $6. The red snapper is excellent, and most of the other rolls and sushi are as well. The prices are moderately higher than other places, and expect to spend ...

  28. Horrible!
    If this is the best Sushi place downtown L.A., then I'm SCARED! The seaweed salad was nothing I've ever had before...it wasn't bad, but definitely not good. The rolls we had were on the same level as the refridgerated rolls you buy at the grocery store. I should have figured the place wasn't as good as people have reviewed, since the place was dead. Even though service was pretty good and the...

  29. Quality fish and real sushi
    Considering how many people say that they like sushi, it's interesting how many don't really like fish. The important thing is the flavor of the fish, and some of the oilier types smell "fishy" even when they are fresh because that's how they taste and smell. Maybe there was something wrong with the ventilation for the earlier reviews, but I didn't notice the smell. I was also glad to see a bo...

    Head and shoulders above most all sushi bars having unique fresh selections. You don't come here to order California rolls, catepillars,krunch, or salmon skin handrolls (Chevrolet stuff). Try the flying fish, Kumamoto oysters, tai, mirugai, or saba with shiso leaf or kazunoko as otsumami (appetizers) or as sushi.

    I've read all the rave review regarding Sushi Go 55, and finally decided to try it. I did notice the small fishy smell in the restaurant, but it could be due to poor air circulation. The wait staff was nice and attentive, but when it gets busy it could be hard to get their attention. I ordered variety of dishes to get a broad perspective on the restaurant. The tempura was excellent, grilled e...

    I will start by saying that I have eaten in over 100 sushi places all over the world in the last 30 years. I consider my self a sushi expert. And for that matter a very picky eater. I am also very health conscious. I have a rule, never eat in a place that smells fishy. When my wife and I walked in we smelt fish, but since she is Asian, it didn't bother her. So she convinced me that since it...

    I've been going here for a few years now, and this is my favorite sushi place in LA by far. The servers are really nice and sweet, and the fish is always fresh.

    First time I ate at Sushi Go 55, I went nuts over the amazing food that I went looking for an apartment nearby so that I can eat there everyday. The sushi is solid. The fish is so fresh that it melts in your mouth like butter. I highly recommend the Spanish mackerel, salmon, red snapper, tuna, amberjack, and hama hama oysters. The regulars go here because it's all about the sushi. No people watch...

    I've been going to this place for past 2 years, almost once every 2 weeks. In the beginning, fish was fresh with various live choices certain days. Now, quality and also service is really dropping. Sushi chefs seem to be changing every few months. What's going on? New chefs are so slow. Don't go here on weekends. You'll wait forever getting your food. Also, the daily specials, although same in mo...

    The best time to come to this place is during lunch on the weekday. They have a lunch special for only $10!!! If I remember correctly there are about 8 pieces of sushi!. It also includes miso and some cold apetizer dishes. It is really more than enough for lunch. The quality of the sushi is actually very good for a price like that.

    One of the best for traditional japanese sushi!!! no creamy rolls that you get at some places... this is the spot if you love the raw fish taste! The uni, hamachi, sake were excellent!!! Nice, big slices of sushi on rice... The albacore was a bit disappointing, but everything else was grealty superior to many other sushi restaurants.

    We were there tonight for the first time and it's a fabulous restaurant. My girlfriend and I had the best sushi so far in LA. We're from San Francisco and SF has pretty high standard when it comes to sushi. Anyways, my girlfriend's favorite was the Japanese Aji sushi and mine was the spicy scallop sushi. Overall it's a great experience but a little pricey. But we'll return for sure.

    This place has dynamite fish. I don't know how anyone finds this place because it's tucked away in this weird mall, but do yourself a favor and make the journey.

    My friends and I have been going to Little Tokyo weekly for years, and the best find this summer has been Sushi Go 55 !!! The sushi lunch special is amazing. Everything is fresh, and the service is wonderful. It is in the Mitsuwa Plaza on 3rd & Alameda. The parking is free. It is the new favorite LT hot spot!

  76. Hit or Miss Sushi Experience
    My 2nd experince wasn't as pleasant. Food was so-so. I was disappointed the sushi chef wasn't as exceptional as before - the care, attention, quality just wasn't there. I did have a nice conversation w/ the owner, learned about his background and family. In any event, this is an update from my last review... Ambiance was reminiscent of my trips to Japan, service was beyond exceptional, chef wa...

  78. Excellent lunch spot
    I was skeptical that a place with such great prices could get these kinds of reviews. I am skeptical no longer. I had the eel on rice daily special, plus saba and shad sushi. The sushi was very fresh, the eel was flavorful, and the overal presentation of the food was "aesthetically pleasing." We were seated immediately without a reservation, though the restaurant is small - reservations are proba...

  79. What a liitle gem in Little Toyko
    This sushi place is exceptional. My fiancee and I are always in the hunt for great sushi bars and this place is GOOD!. The fresh-est fish around. We had the fresh/live amaebi, spanish mackeral, uni, magaro, toro and a host of other fresh catch. You will not be dissapointed with this sushi spot. The sushi chefs are not loud and abnoxious, but they truly display their talents where it counts. The c...

  80. Best sushi I've ever had!
    The sushi is wonderful! The fish is fresh. The toro is to die for! It melts in your mouth. The ankimo was the best I've had. Fresh wasabi and very nice ginger. Uni is very fresh and has a natural sweetness to it. The nori seaweed is crispy when you bite into their handrolls. I like their negi hama. Yellowtail Green Onion hand roll. You must try the shiitake ebi appetizer. Shrimp an...

  81. Fantabulous Sushi!! and more...
    Sushi Go 55 is that really rare combination of exceptionally good sushi (by anyone's standards), attentive & expert service from folks so nice that you want to keep coming back and a bill that is shockingly reasonable for the quality dining experience that you just had. The fried oysters and stuffed shitake appetizers inspired me to do my iron chef judge impression (the actress with the high voi...

  82. Amazing
    One just can't throw around the word "best" in discribing sushi restaurants because let's face it, one can't have bad sushi and still live to tell about it. There are a lot of good sushi out there but I had the most amazing experience at Sushi Go 55. The friendly manager and staff took care of my weary, famished friend and I by selecting a flavorful seaweed salad, oysters fried to perfection, b...

  85. Great Restaurant
    We are so happy to have found Sushi Go 55. There have been several other sushi restaurants in the same location over the past several years and this is the best one yet. Great service, great menu, fresh food, very nice atmosphere. We will be back again and again and again and again . . . .

  86. I love Sushi Go 55
    Great mouthwatering sushi -- and a great selection of fresh, seasonal fish. And if you're not in the mood for Sushi, try the Japanese tapas. From the sliced conch in a light, warm broth to the vinegared crab, this might be the best Japanese food I've had in Los Angeles.
