Thirty Years Behind the Bar
Shiso Sushi has been a quiet fixture on Ventura Boulevard for over three decades — earning loyalty one exceptional bite at a time.
Shiso Sushi-ShermanOaks | Our Story
Easy to Miss, Hard to Forget
No flashy signage, no spectacle — just a modest Ventura Boulevard storefront that has earned fierce loyalty one perfect bite at a time.
Restraint Is a Skill
Our chefs bring over 30 combined years behind the bar, understanding that great nigiri is as much about restraint as it is about skill — it shows in every plate.
The Fish Speaks for Itself
Exceptional freshness sets Shiso apart — from clean, glistening yellowtail to buttery toro with chili crisp, every piece reflects an uncompromising commitment to quality.
Where Tradition Meets Invention
Classical Japanese technique meets modern imagination: crispy roe-dusted rolls, bold sauces, and a Mexican fusion sensibility that feels wholly original.
More Than a Sushi Bar
Shishito peppers, ramen, udon, wagyu nigiri — Shiso is a true neighborhood restaurant, not just a sushi stop. Dine in or take it home any night of the week.
