FUKYO Sushi on Sepulveda just south of Ventura Blvd. on west side of Sepulveda between Dickens & Greenleaf is the best sushi in all of Sherman Oaks, Van Nuys & Encino. The is a Cheers type sushi place where they want to know your name and know you. The people who work there & go there are the warmest, funniest and friendliest people on Earth.
I can't say enough about Octopus Sushi on Ventura in Encino. This is not a production line sushi shop but a crew of caring sushi chefs that when I walk in, they begin to prepare my favorite dishes.
Junes Sushi all you can eat for $20. Its a friendly place and I always sit at the bar. Lots of regulars. Have not been disappointed yet. Its on I believe katella and ?knot or valley view. May be just outside of Anaheim. In the same strip mall with BevMo's and Olive Garden.
