Sushi Ran. (Hospitality and Gastronomy) in Los Angeles (California).
Description
A Little Gem in North Hollywood
So, I recently swung by Sushi Ran, tucked away in a strip mall on Riverside Drive, and honestly? It’s a mixed bag. You stroll in, and you’re met with this cozy vibe. Small, yes, but charming in a way. It’s not exactly where you’d expect to find sushi, but hey, life’s full of surprises.
Now, let’s chat about the sushi. I wouldn’t say it’s the best I’ve ever had, but it’s also not the worst. They’ve got these big, hefty rolls, loaded with enough spicy mayo to drown out the taste of the fish. Some folks might love that, but if you’re a purist, it could feel like overkill. I mean, where’s the subtlety in that?
The service? Okay, picture this. One waitress, and she’s doing everything—taking orders, juggling takeout, and trying to keep a handle on the dining room. She’s super nice, but you can tell she’s a bit overworked, which kind of adds to the experience. Not great, but not her fault either.
But wait, there’s more! I went for the ramen and sushi roll combo, and wow, I didn’t expect much but was pleasantly surprised. The flavors came through nicely, the food was served quick, and the customer service? Stellar in its own right.
Then, I overheard someone raving about the baked lobster roll. Tempting, right? And let’s not forget the cozy miso soup that warmed my soul.
Now, the parking situation? A nightmare, honestly. But hey, if you can snag a spot, it’s worth the effort for a quick bite. A perfect stop if you’re heading to Universal Studios nearby.
Sushi Ran may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I’d definitely give it another shot. After all, sometimes life’s about those little sushi adventures that add spice to your day (and maybe jumbo rolls, too).
