Great service with high quality sushi and a large selection of rolls. A little on the expensive side but this will be my new sushi joint until I find a better one. The entire staff said bye to us in...

Kaya gets a high rating b/c they are consistent, fresh and nice people. The sushi is way overpriced for what you get - unless you love the goofy spicy this and that rolls, packed with every fish so...

Very trendy. Good date place. Large portions. Crowded, but food comes fast. Sushi is pretty good, but not the best in LA. Tempura is excellent. Easy parking.

This is a great sushi restaurant, especially if you like sushi rolls. There are literally hundreds to pick from!! Although...I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the tempura. It's the best tempura I've tasted....

When we were looking for restaurants, I read the reviews saying that service was slow and that the food was just average for Korean fare. We gave it a chance anyway, since other people reported positive...

When I entered the restaurant, I got no service and waited for 30 minutes. People behind me left because it took so long. Reading these reviews before hand, I decided to wait and endure bad service so that I...

This is a nice little Japanese/Korean restaurant in a strip mall at the corner of Washington and Glencoe. It's very well decorated, with a smallish sushi bar and about 25 tables. The prices are ok,...

As a Korean raised on the Westside, I've tried my share of sushi/Japanese/Korean restaurants. This is by far one of the priciest. The freshness is only so-so, and the portions are very small. The service was...

Kaya Sushi is literally a little hole in the wall wedged into a business center across from Costco in Marina Del Rey. Even though it may not look great from the outside, once inside you will find some of the...

Having enjoyed lots of sushi here over many years, I count the total experience as higher than any one piece. No expert on rolls, I've enjoyed their flavor more than their usually-gargantuan size. When Kaya...
