    Have dined here before and enjoyed it, but various items tonite seemed bland, especially the Teru Roll which is a signature item.

    Get a firm grip on your wallet. Two dinners, no drinks of any type and the bill was $104.00 before a tip.

    Everything was yummy. Service was inattentive. My son has a dairy allergy and he got pretty sick after, they must use butter or something not disclosed.

    Friendly and attentive service. Seating outside in back by koi pond and bamboo was serene — though the upbeat music playing fought against that. Food was fresh and delicious. Will be going again.

    I have been going to Teru Sushi since it opened in 1979 with my family. It was a staple throughout my childhood, and it set the bar for sushi for the rest of my life. as the years progressed, and we moved away from the area, I hadn’t been in many many years. When we found ourselves back in the neighborhood, I decided to give my old childhood haunt a visit once again. I am happy to say, everything that made it a ali’s Angeles staple for reliable, super high-quality sushi and sashimi , with friendly servers who have pride in the restaurant is exactly as it was as a kid. Our server, clearly took pride in the food that was served, and himself grew up eating at Teru, just like I did, so like me… Has a special love for the place.. Teru sushi survived the pandemic, and remains a Los Angeles foodie treasure for a very good reason. Nostalgia aside, it’s still my favorite sushi of anywhere I’ve ever been, anywhere in the country and beyond.  I am grateful to this restaurant for setting my bar so high. I plan on revisiting this childhood favorite again, and much more often.
