Sung Sho Gun Sushi

Yummy spot, clean bathrooms, terrific service, parking lot in front, and they brought us a lot of appetizers and side dishes which i didnt expect. Great dining experience overall And you can sit in the little rooms if you prefer. the green tea was divine

This place is a hidden gem. They have great quality fish as well as excellent service. True Korean style sashimi restaurant. The portions are huge for the price. You will not regret! Try the assorted sashimi set. It comes with more things than Sashimi.

The appetizers before we even ordered were huge (a whole large plate of kimchi tempura pancake, a pickled salad, and the regular side plates), the sushi was high quality, and the army stew and bean sprout bibimbap were both large and very tasty.
The lady serving us was very, very nice and made the whole experience more enjoyable. She was always on hand to refill our side dishes, and she gave us extra rice to leave with.

Disclaimer: I was not given incentive or benefit in any form whatsoever to write this review. This review is written from my personal experience and perspective from my visit to the restaurant as a paying customer.

First things first, this spot is under new ownership as of Oct '19. Upon a single glance, the prices are quite reasonable for a sushi restaurant and the menu has a new nicely balanced mix of fresh contemporary and classic dishes. The appetizers are absolutely amazing. You get an entire experience from the start. This is a spot for any crowd or crew that appreciates high quality sushi. Regardless your age, gender or ethnic group, if you enjoy sushi, this place is definitely worth your time and money. The service is also top notch. The staff will take your order quite promptly and will bring out your starting side dishes nearly as soon. They will also clear all empty and unused bowls and trash out of the way in an as undisruptive manner as possible upon request or upon their discretion. The fish quality is just out of this world. They are all incredibly fresh and have that melt-in-your-mouth quality that avid sushi consumers crave and seek. The soba is definitely worth a try for those who love cold noodles. The noodles are cooked to perfection and presentation is also nice. The dipping sauce/soup for the noodles is very delicious and refreshing as well. Also the flavor is different (and in my opinion, better) than the generic store-bought type of dipping sauce/soup that you find every other sushi restaurant using for their soba. For those of you who read up to this point, you read this long for a reason and i hope this review gave you a reason to visit New Sho Gun Sushi. You won't regret it. My family and i loved our dining experience here.

Fresh quality seafood with great attentive service! We ordered the medium sashimi platter and some extra sides but all the foods came out quickly. Will be back again!🤘

Very sweet people work here! They take care of you like you’re in your mothers home. Little dishes were offered before we ordered too! Thank you so much. ❤

The food is absolutely divine. The service is the best ever received. You will not be disappointed and if you are you need to go back and order these things instead of whatever you got.

Meal includes plethora of additional items that will be incredible. Crispy eel pancake with sweet spicy red pepper sauce was served to us and a light tea and edamame all complimentary. With the items we got below, we got white rice, a salad with a bright acidic spicy dressing. Tons of different pickles and sides I’d usually get with an all you can eat deal at a j/kbbq place. Get the below items and you will not be disappointed.

- braised spicy chicken
- sushi, we got the 10pc, came with salmon, sea bass, halibut, more…
- eel over rice (we didn’t get an eel roll. But next time I am planning on it)
- shrimp roll
- I think I am forgetting some but this was enough food for 7 people

The chicken is literally amazing. If you don’t like dark meat don’t get it But it was the best meal I have had in a long time and the owners are absolutely amazing.

From the minute we walked in until the minute we left we had exceptional food and service. The prices were extremely reasonable and the portions for sashimi and tempura were incredible. Some of the lightest tempura I've had in L.A.. I recommend eating here. I was also very happy with the quality and selection of fish. It was so fresh.

Love this place! I went today with my friend and they were so kind and the food was so good. The green onion pancake was amazing and the sushi melts in your mouth!

The owners are very nice and generous. They got us some food that are on the house. They speak a little English but the services are great. The foods taste great and the sashimi platers are fresh. I was there for team lunch and would love to go there again.

We as family and friends had chance to go dine here , little while ago for one of our friends birthday dinner .food and service was great and what I was really impressed about this place is not only quality and quantity of sashimi and other side dishes were very impressive to me , I really enjoyed the all of quality of great food . It's been a quite awhile I had high quality of sashimi in Los Angeles restaurant. I highly recommend this place because not only the food but relationship of owners maintaining with there long time friends and customers. They are very humble and humanlike. Enjoy!

I have never written any reviews, but I must say this restaurant is just amazing! Their food and service are way beyond my expectation. I will definitely visit again soon.

The service is one of a kind, the quality par to non. If you want a special memory that lasts I recommend the booth and ask for some privacy :). Great food and get ur fill of Seoul food.

The NEW Shogun restaurant (opened under new ownership as of Oct. 2019) is super delish!!! It is a small restaurant, but it is nice and organized neatly on top of being very clean. The food was amazing; I ordered the soba/sushi set and the sushi was great. The highlight of my meal was definitely the soba though! The noodles were fresh and light matched with a sweet, yet savory dipping sauce. You can add wasabi, thinly sliced green onions and the radish according to season the sauce however spicy you want it. I am not lying when I say it is the best soba I have ever eaten 🤤!!!

Overall experience:
Parking - Valet....believe it's $2?
Price - It is a new ownership, but it isn't as expensive as the old Shogun.
Food - 5 out of 5
Space - it is a tiny spot. There are two small private rooms (max. 4 i think) and the rest are pretty much the same. I can't remember if there is bar seating.
Service - was excellent~
Recommend - to anyone and everyone in KTOWN LA who wants to eat some yummy sushi! 👍👍👍👍👍

Under New ownership as of Oct 2019. Mr. Sung is awesome. The place now have many affordable price menu and I am in love with the lunch boxes. It is perfect spot for lunch and dinner! Try if you are in Koreatown.

I came here last night at about 8:30 p.m. we ordered the mixed sashimi combination. The combination comes with many different little side dishes of seafood. The sashimi was fresh and very tasty. The side dishes were really good and extremely interesting.
If you don't speak Korean it will be hard to communicate, however the staff there was extremely friendly and they were showing us exactly what sauces were for what cut of fish. They even did a hand demonstration for us which was so awesome. The food came out fast, the service was excellent and the parking was extremely easy.
We had everything from halibut, Toro, salmon, yellow tail and monkfish liver.
I will definitely be coming back to this place.

A gem! Definitely ordered too much food but it was so good I had to try a lot. The pancakes! The fish! Awesome.

I loved the sashimi and fish was fresh.
They charge me Korean wine (Bok bun Ja) for $25.

This sushi bar is a hidden gem in Korearown. Their menu is slightly pricy, but the portions are tasty, artsy, and generous. There is limited parking in front. The vibe is casual, comfortable, and homey. Private areas are available. Their wasabe is delightfully stronger than most places.

Lots of nice apps come free with meal. Great service and really good sushi 👌
