To make matters worse, I noticed several uncomfortable stares directed at me while I sat there, which led me to wonder if my race played a part in how I was treated. It’s disheartening that such experiences can still happen in 2024, underscoring the ongoing need for awareness and change. Additionally, the ambiance was far from pleasant, with a musty smell reminiscent of a nursing home and dilapidated furniture that contributed to an unwelcoming environment. All of this, combined with the perceived racial undertones, made me question the restaurant's dedication to fair treatment of all customers. I strongly advise others to think twice before dining at Sushi 101. Seek out a place with a friendlier atmosphere, and be mindful of potential biases when considering this establishment. Eating at Sushi 101 comes with risks, and incidents like mine should not be happening in today’s world.
I dined here once a week for over 10 years before I moved away. It's the best authentic Japanese izakaya and sushi bar in the valley, if not the entire city.
Fresh fish and delicious mochi. But what steals the show is the welcoming staff that just makes ya feel all warm and fuzzy. Where else can you find a beer for $4 in LA? 5 stars for that alone.
I once asked a Japanese friend at the gym which sushi place he would recommend, so we 've been going to 101 for 20 years since. So if you like Un-slick and cheaper by a lot in an ugly strip mall…. It reminds me of the place in Tokyo in the series Midnight Diner on Netflix. It has achieved not trying/Is -ness. Last night we ordered a generous amount in an a la carte variety that included items we’ve never had, like Yellowtail collar, and mushroom Miso soup, for example. All served quickly with excellent taste. My wife asked me to guess the price and I guessed $45 and it was $35, including beer. They were about 75% filled on a Friday night at 6:30. So if you want quality and you have an accepting attitude… They won 't yell Ohai-O! when you come in, just a warm welcome. My favorite tell is that you have to step over an unceremonious drainpipe three feet directly in front of the front door. The place is like one of those famous Japanese teacups with the rough finish mistake i.e. “wabi sabi” glaring out at you lovingly. The whole place says “wabi sabi” come to think of it. Their unglamorous friendliness is refreshing. Btw, Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie were playing softly in the background as we walked in. Louis Armstrong and other early Jazz was also played. Who does that? I think Joni Mitchell and Elvis C. might go there buy not Elton John, if you get my drift. Try it. Or don 't, because I love it 75% full, but 85% wouldn 't wreak it. I only risk telling you because we love them and feel better saying so out loud.
