Great sushi, HORRIBLE service!!!

by chellebelle

This place...oye. I quit going for 6 months because of the service (and the way they nickel and dime you to DEATH). Tonight I was really craving it so...yeah, unfortunately nothing has changed. Still the insane charges for everything and the service-or lack thereof-is so terrible that I have vowed I will never ever return. There is a waiter there (STILL-HOW???!!!) omg, I wanted to light a fire under his ass-LITERALLY! Lord almighty and then they have the audacity to add an auto gratuity?! You don't get a tip just for showing up to work buddy! Well, I guess at Crazy Fish you do...suxxx :(

• Pros: food
• Cons: service

Absurdly Average

by FoodGuy77

I've tried many sushi restaurants in the L.A. area and had yet to be disappointed with the food or service - until I went to Crazy Fish.

Presentation isn't everything, however it is important to at least make some effort to make a plate of food look appetizing. I ordered two rolls that were massive and awkwardly put together, practically falling apart as I picked them up. My fiance' ordered a tuna sashimi salad that wasn't even served with mixed greens or Romaine lettuce, but with ICEBERG head lettuce (the type you buy at the grocery store for 59 cents).

This establishment seems to believe that quantity of food champions over quality, and I will also echo the previous reviews regarding the horrible service. I had to literally flag our waiter down to get:

1. A menu

2. A drink

3. A glass of water

4. Our check

When I received the check, I was actually insulted to find a "16% gratuity charge" that they tried to impose on our order. A very minimal tip was given and we left without a sound.

There was nothing unique or memorable about my experience at this restaurant and I would not recommend it to anyone. Rather - go down the street one block to Miru 8691on the corner of Olympic and Palm. Attractive food presentation, quality sushi and a relaxed atmosphere.

• Pros: None
• Cons: bland food, worse service
