   The place was very congested and very noisy. You cannot hear yourself speak the service was slow, and only one person was serving, therefore was very impatient in the rude for the money that they charge. The food was not worth it.

   We’ve been to SHU many times and for years and love it. The food is fantastic and consistent. However, this time we were rushed by our server, which we didn’t appreciate. We were not looking to spend hours there but at least give us the 90 minutes to enjoy our time with our friends. I’d I wanted fast food I would’ve gone to McDonalds. Our server didn’t even give us a chance to swallow before asking us for the next course and finally dessert. I understand you have people waiting but you should give patrons the courtesy of time while dining.

   Such delicious and high quality sushi!!! It’s a little bit out-of-the-way for us as we live down the hill on the other side of Beverly Hills but we always love to come here because it’s worth the drive. The food is so delicious and the flavors are unique. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s consistently delicious

   It’s hidden gem… the ambience is great and the service was outstanding. I love their yellowtail sashimi. Highly recommended!

    We've been going to Shu for more than a decade and they never disappoint. Lots of long time employees here and they make it a point to deliver an exceptional dining experience each and every time. We hadn't been to Shu in awhile but Leo, the head chef, didn't miss a beat in remembering what we like. We typically only eat sashimi and we trust whatever Leo decides to serve us. One of our absolute favorites is bluefin tuna with ponzu-wasabi. Some of our other favorite dishes are yellowtail with truffle, red snapper with avocado, and needle fish (not on the menu)! We often compare our sushi experiences to Shu and hands down Shu always comes out on top not just in the quality of the sushi but the overall dining experience delivered by the friendly and knowledgeable staff.
