The Landing Grill & Sushi Bar

My third visit and this place still impresses me. Took my daughter Saturday and reserved a nice table towards the front near the lake. The view was fantastic. We dined on Tempura bento boxes, sashimi combos and had amazing drinks of the Watermelon Mezcal and Original Cadillac margaritas. Our service by Brayden was excellent and we had an amazing day. Oh, and we enjoyed the delicious Baked Alaska dessert.

This is an excellent restaurant in an awesome location right on Westlake Lake! The Landing Sushi Bar & Grill specializes in sushi (hence the name), but has so much more, ranging from steaks, fish, other American classics, pastas, a plethora of appetizers, and more! It is pricey, but where else are you going to find lakefront dining in Southern California? Very few places offer this! When it’s nice outside, you can sit on the patio and take in the views. I really enjoy it! This most recent visit, we opted for a majority of sushi items: Big Eye Tuna Carpaccio (absolutely wonderful starter), Endless Summer Roll, Fancy Roll, All-In Roll, Tiger Roll, OMG Roll, Snap Crackle Pop Roll, and a Mongolian Beef Bento Box! Everything was really good! Some of the best things were the tuna carpaccio, OMG Roll, and Fancy Roll, however all were great. There wasn’t a single thing we ordered that we really disliked. This is one of the better sushi restaurants in this part of LA and we will continue to return! The combination of great food + lakefront dining is virtually unbeatable. It’s really nice having this little mall area on Westlake Lake that has these restaurants. Check this place out if you haven’t yet!!

Used to live in the area. Came up from San Diego last weekend. Had no idea reservations are required- you could always sit inside before. Lauren the hostess was so kind and understanding with our plight. She did everything she could to find us a table with a short wait time. Omar was our server and he was so friendly, happy, and attentive even though it was a mad house last Saturday. Everything was FANTASTIC. Same as I remembered (I ALWAYS ordered the salmon bento box with beurre blanc sauce but only teriyaki on menu now. Thankfully they let me substitute! Hubby had Korean flank steak stir fry and he said the beef was delicious. We started with the Albacore Sashimi Special and it was divine! The fish was so fresh that it basically melted in your mouth. Oh, and the bruleed banana/brownie/icecream was fantastic!) Outstanding service, a beautiful atmosphere, and delicious food! We will definitely be back- but we'll make reservations for sure next time!

Lovely restaurant right by the water! Off the bat, we were immediately attracted to the plentiful outdoor seating. They even welcomed our dog 🐶 with his own bowl of water. The drinks were aesthetically pleasing, but could have packed a little more punch for me. Chicken Picatta was alright, but literally swimming in oil… way too greasy and heavy if you ask me. Fries were perfectly crispy! The good news - the sushi was actually incredible! The nigiri, sashimi, and cut rolls were irresistible. So surprised at how good the fish was for a restaurant that doesn’t exclusively serve sushi, but we learned that there are actually two separate kitchens (one for sushi, one for other selections). Smart move in case someone in your party isn’t a sushi fan, but you’re still craving it 😜 The staff were so sweet and very helpful. Pricing was fair considering the excellent service and pleasant atmosphere, but do wish the regular food items (besides the sushi) reciprocated higher quality for these prices. Nonetheless, a pleasant experience and worth a visit for an enjoyable meal outside!

This was the worst experience! We went here as we are visiting from out of town as my bf is working in area and this was suggested but the service was horrible ! SANDRA is absolutely the worst manager w no compassion or care for guests.idk if they treated us different bc we are a young mixed couple but it was clear they didn’t care about our business. We changed our order within 2min and they had a problem w that. I ordered a ribeye medium rare and they brought my bf food out 18min before mine then when I got my steak it was well done! They offered nothing in return! My bf waited for my food to come to eat together and by the time my food came out his plate was cold. They offered nothing in return for not only over cooking my steak but the issue of him getting his food and waiting 20min for mine to even come out. Food should come out together and then no lack of compassion or understanding after we waited for my plate to come out incorrect like we aren’t paying for a service. Restaurants provide a service that’s what we as guest pay for and we paid for cold food and horrible customer service Again maybe it’s bc we are young and an interracial couple but this was a horrible experience and SANDRA Did NOTHING to rectify the situation pre judging us like we can’t afford everything we ordered and we ordered 3 round of drinks and 2 appetizers before our meals even came out. the sushi app roll app was good tho but they JUDGE YOU when you walk in and the manager had an attitude as if we were wrong for speaking up on the service SANDRA DO BETTER AS THE MANAGER BC YOUR ATTITUDE IS HORRIBLE AND CLEARLY DONT CARE ABOUT CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE I am very disappointed in this restaurant especially after all the great reviews this was very disappointing and a waste of money they didn’t even clear the apps off the table while waiting for the steak I moved the sushi plate to other side of table thinking my steak would be right out but 20min later it arrived and they still didn’t remove the app plate. just not a good experience very disappointed
