If you'll seat table, you should find her!!! I went there with my friends and family on Tuesday dinner time. We usually go Monday or Thursday night but table service is not good at all, especially tall lady ( idon't know her name). Her english was poor and sometimes wrong plate comes wrong amount. But foods are delicious and my boys love Yoshida. On that evening was sooooo crowdy and we were waiting almost 45min. to seat our table. But a waitress who name yako( i don't know spelling) was very very nice to us. She takes care of us very fully and care about my litle son to have kid's plate, tools, and drink. I have never got like this service in this restaurant, no other waitress care about those small things. since that night, we love to go yoshida. You should go there on Tuesday, because she works on that night. may be other waitress is very nice, but she is the best waitress in Yoshida I swear!!!!!

We decided to try this place out based on the Citysearch reviews. After trying out multiple pieces of nigiri sushi (yellowtail, tuna, toro, salmon, monkfish liver and more), we came away disappointed. The cut of fish had much to be desired, with some pieces being overly chewy and with stringy portions (which at better restaurants, the sushi chef cuts away or uses a better cut). Yoshida has mediocre sushi, and I'm not sure what the fuss is all about? Perhaps it's because it's landlocked in San Marino and there isn't much else around, but it's still pretty mediocre. My SO and I went on a Saturday night and granted, the place was packed, but it's still no excuse for bad service (I had to ask for my bill three times amongst other problems throughout the night). I'd recommend going to any of the superior sushi restaurants in West L.A. (Mori, Zo, Urasawa, Sasabune, Nozawa, Gen, TheHump and others). I also find it shocking to see such childish behavior on Citysearch with certain "clientele" of Yoshida's (sc2007, sksw) posting attack reviews on someone earlier who posted a negative review of the restaurant (notice how both of those 2 "reviewers" have reviewed just *1* restaurant (Yoshida), LOL). Pretty sad and amateurish. Everyone has an opinion, hopefully the collective result of all those opinions will help people looking for information make good choices.

THIS IS THE BEST SUSHI IN ALL OF LOS ANGELES BY FAR. FOR THAT LAST COMMENT FROM EXILEKISS, YOU MUST NOT HAVE SAT WITH THE OWNER YOSHIDA. BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN GOING TO YOSHIDAS FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS NOT ONE COMPLAINT. HATE TO SAY THAT YOU MUST NOT NOW GOOD SUSHI IF IT WAS FORCED DOWN YOUR THROAT. THE SUSHI AT YOSHIDA'S IS TOP NOTCH. THE ALBACOR MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH,THE SWEET SHRIMP IS AWESOME, PHILI ROLL IS TO DIE FOR AND THE AMBIANCE OF EATING WITH THE OWNER (YOSHIDA) CAN NOT BE COMPARED TO THOSE NOT SO GOOD SUSHI BARS, LIKE (A-FLOAT,KABUKI,AI SUSHI). AND FOR THE PRICE WE PAY FOR GOOD SUSHI, IT COMES WITH THE TERRITORY. GOOD SUSHI IS WORTH PAYING.
