I've been here twice, lunch and dinner, both times were not great - the sushi was not very tasty. It's a shame as I live and work very close and love sushi.

The place was very casual. Food was good, not great, not bad. The staff was very friendly. Spicy tuna was not fresh, but the rest of our sushi was good. The Chef Roll was very unique. At first I didn't like it, but was glad I tried it. It is made of kobe beef and foie gras. It's an interesting dish for those who want to try something more interesting. I still don't know how to explain the taste, but it was quite different. Reminded me of something they would eat on Bizarre Foods or that other food show on the travel channel. I would go there again. Pros: thumbs up for the chef roll - something different Cons: ambience very casual

I love the catchy name as much as I love the selection of sushi ! A friend took me here and I return to favor when I get a chance. The food is always fresh and of excellent quality.

I tried to order a personalized sushi platter for a small office party. I was ignored for about 10 minutes upon entering the restaurant (there were maybe 2 parties in the dining room), and when I explained what I wanted, the waiter stared blankly at me. I was then rather rudely told that I would have to come back later because they were too busy. I told them I would wait. After another 30 minutes of being ignored I left with no sushi and very ticked off. They lost a $300 + order and several devoted customers. Everyone has their off days but this was ridiculous. The staff was very rude. They need to consider hiring more staff... but they should do a personality check before hiring. I once relied on this place as my go-to sushi spot for lunch. I will probably never return. NOT RECOMMENDED!

The sushi here is one of the best around! The prices are typical good sushi prices. The quality of the sushi and sashimi is always fresh and they taste really good. The service is great even when they are busy (I always sit at the sushi bar) and they are very attentive. I became hooked on Live Sushi, they had me at 'Hello!' Pros: friendly staff, great sushi and sashimi, easy parking

My japanese boyfriend decided to take me to sushi tonight. So we went here and LEFT DURING the meal very dissapointed.. It was a slow night (on sat) should of been the first clue.. We ordered live scallop and the chef or should I say korean due to their dialect didn't know what part of the world it was from.. It clearly wasnt live Im not sure how old it was.. We ordered ground diakon which was bad and got spi t out at the first taste.. The guy next to us ordered live uni and it was clearly already dead.. We cancelled the rest of our order and didn't even finish our beer.. We left with such a sour taste (well literally) Do not recommend this place at all! The two behind the sushi bar couldnt have been japanese due to the lack of quality in their fish.. Pros: Web page design Cons: false advertisement

Not bad, not great, just average. i'm a big sushi lover, but i'm sad to see that there's no originality at this restaurant. upon hearing one of my favorite chefs from ebisu restaurant opened up his own place, i was eager to try out the new place. i looked at the menu and realized that 80% of the menu was straight out of ebisu's. everything from the 49er roll and even the 29 roll. the 29 roll had significant history at ebisu, even named after the chef. i can't believe that they would keep the same name of the roll when it has no significance to Live. other than that, the dragon, rainbow, etc are all replicas from ebisu. service was okay. when i was there, there seemed to be a lot of drinking by the owners/managers which seemed pretty unprofessional to me, other than my buddy jackson, i don't think there should have been drinking by the wait staff and such. jackson is a great chef, knows what he's doing, but i wish there was more effort on the owners part to make sure their menu didn't look like ebisu's. Pros: parking is easy to find, it's never too busy, jackson is great Cons: food is off and on, service is slow, mixed ambiance
