We have been enjoying Moto for over 10 years, and this is the first time we have been disappointed. They have raised their prices, which is understandable due to the pandemic, however they shouldnt change the amount or quality of their sushi. The rolls were very small, so the amount of food we got for the price we payed disappointing. In our cucumber wrapped roll, we could barely see the slices of fish they were so small. It was almost as if they made the rolls smaller to fit in the small togo containers. We definitely wont be ordering take out from them again.

The toro was incredible as was the New Zealand white salmon. Blue crab roll delicious and the oysters too. Love their mackerel and their omelette nigiri. Also highly recommend the yellow tail and eel.Staff very friendly and easy going but always on the case.Can’t wait to go back.

The food was great, but it was the horrible service that ruined the whole experience. The server was horrendous, and on top of it the server put fried batter in a sushi roll when I can’t have gluten.. I spit it out before swallowing it, had her remake the roll, and she still tried to charge us for the roll.. there was no apology or effort in their end to make up for their big mistake. I would of come back here, but because the service was so bad, I will not be a repeated customer.

The worst service ever! The waitress made us feel very bad. We left $19 tip and she angrily requested $60.What about the prices of your sushi? Why did you make everything 30-40% more expensive???We will never return to this horrible place.Remember! Tipping is not compulsory and you must be very thankful for every cent you receive!

The food was delicious. And it was ready on time. They didnt forget anything in the order either. However, the portion and sizes for their sushi dishes were way smaller than what they charge for it.

The restaurant is located in a shopping plaza. The parking lot was full so you might need to park on side street but not a big issue.Walked inside was immediately greeted and welcomed. I was told to just pick a table to sit on. It was bit on the warmer side inside the small restaurant.I started looking at the menu and it was really small. Then I notices the prices of the " Premium Rolls". They only offered 25 premium rolls and all of them were heavy jazzed up with sauses, which not a fan of. I like to taste the freshness of the fish. The service was on point but does not make it ok to charge Beverly Hill prices. The cheapest roll was a cucumber roll which was a premium roll at $18.99. There are half dozen great sushi restaurants within 1 mile away I know of that you can get you moneys worth. I decided to stick with the regular simple rolls because only rolls on menu without heavily saused. The end of our dinner the bill was $170.00 with tip for 2 people. I did leave somewhat hungry. The simple rolls were pretty pricey.The only other issue because the restaurant being really small. The sushi chef started chopping on cutting board which was pretty loud. It startled a little child and made her cry, she kept crying and chopping continued.At end of the day in my opinion it was not worth the price or experience, they offered nothing special.

Today is the second time here and I waited 5 minutes in the hall to be seated. The entrance says “Please wait to be seated”. I came alone and felt awful waiting. There was plenty of room at the sushi table. I don’t feel welcomed, sucks because I love the food here

I had a nice dinner here and the service was excellent. It’s a nice, casual sushi spot with a good menu. My edamame was crisp and my Moto Roll was well presented and tasted great. I’d rate it 5 stars except for the fact that they don’t accept Amex. I understand that Amex charges merchants higher processing fees but that’s not a valid excuse nowadays. My company provides me an Amex card and since I’m traveling for work I am required to use the card. I come to LA about 12 - 15 times per year and keep a list of good restaurants, etc. in each city. Unfortunately I won’t be adding Moto Sushi to my Glendale list.As a business owner I believe in making it as easy possible for the customer to spend money. They need to start accepting Amex and stop saving nickels only to lose dimes.

Moto Sushi is flawless perfection. It’s privately owned, and the family hand-picks the fish each day. They are priced right, the portions are great, and the fish is absolutely amazing. The salads, sounds and chicken is terrific as well. To-Go orders are ready when they say they will be, and the service is 5-Star quality, every time. We eat here 4-5 times a week.

My go to sushi restaurant in Glendale. Pricing is very fair relative to the quality of the sushi. Definitely ask what is fresh and go with the recommendations. The sweet shrimp, when in season, is a must!

This is one of the best sushi places in the area. There ingredients are always fresh, and the sushi and sashimi are Tokyo quality.PROS: Crab Hand Rolls, Salmon Toro, Tuna Toro, and their daily specials. They are also open for lunch! Really cant say enough good things about the menu.CONS: They arent closer to my house. If this were within walking distance I would eat here every day.

I love the sushi here. Its ways so good. The rolls are a bit skinny and small but taste good. I think its a bit over priced. But since I have not found another place I like that makes tasty sushi I keep coming back. They know what there doing and friendly staff.

I was in a "not hungry but I can eat" mood. Usually only eat a roll and a half to myself, but... I ate two rolls, a cup of miso soup, and the chocolate-raspberry gelato dessert. So impressed!!

We had a very nice dinner here on a Sunday night. Great service and good food. Most importantly, the music was playing not too loudly, Im tired of many places where you cant even hear the person in front of you because of the obnoxious music. :)

I eat A LOT of sushi all over L.A. and this is the place I consistently go back to. They have a special take on spicy hand rolls and it’s delicious. Spicy Albacore Spicy Yellowtail, Spicy Salmon, and Spicy Tuna hand rolls are my go to. Everything is fresh. It is a little pricey but not overwhelming and who wants cheap sushi anyway. Their portions are good and the owners are very personable. THIS IS A GEM.

My friend David took me here for lunch on a recent business trip. I make sushi back home, which means Im very picky over quality. This was some excellent Sushi, fresh, well presented, and we were completely pleased with the whole experience. I would personally recommend Moto Sushi to all my family and friends. So I would absolutely recommend that you try it yourself, today!

If youre in Glendale and are in the mood for sushi, you definitely have to try MOTO Sushi. Ive tried the best of the best sushi in Los Angeles and I can tell you its the top best places for sushi in Glendale. Try the spicy tuna, which they make unique in there own way. They add a little bit of crunch to it. The shrimp tempura is pluffy and crunchy. Definitely a must try if you are in the area and are craving sushi!

This place is a hidden gem. Tucked in a nondescript strip mall they serve sushi on par with much fancier restaurants. Fish is always super fresh and very affordable given the quality. Service staff is always friendly and courteous.

Awesome sushi selection. Fresh sushi is legit and truly fresh. Kanpachi and Hamachi are always amazing here. Toro is melt in your mouth! Great service too! Cups are always filled, empty plates are always taken promptly! A really good sushi gem in Glendale! Family friendly too! Tables are spaced out enough that you dont smell the person next to you haha!

To date, I stand by Moto Sushi being among the top 5 Japanese restaurants in Glendale.That being said, the food is obviously excellent, while unfortunately pricey for their location/atmosphere (prices similar to Katsuya; ~$20 per premium roll with tax).A two person meal runs ~ $100 with beer. Ouch.Parking is difficult and the plaza is often full being there are only 3 or 4 spots for Moto customers. Service was quick and excellent.Honestly, more realistic pricing would make this spot absolutely blow up, as this area is in sore need of a great sushi spot thats regularly affordable.

pretty interesting American style sushi rolls with great service. the normal sushi and sashimi offerings were quite good as well, fish was fresh. however I felt the rice was slightly overcooked and did not have that subtle vinegary, sweet rice flavour and mild chewiness that good Japanese rice has. still worth going to.

Good enough sushi, awful ambiance & slow, neglectful servers. Good price I guess? Sucks to be in a restaurant waiting for your food watching four servers cluster around the TV instead of doing their job. If I wanted some football game on in the background Id go to a sports bar. Hate having tv at restaurants, its loud and distracting. I have a better tv at home, if I want to watch something Ill order takeout.

Very surprising to have a "quality -sushi" food joint in a small corner of Pacific here in Glendale.Even you get it for "pick-up" the presentation was taken into attention.Love it! We are a fan :)All staffs are so attentive and very friendly. I hope you guys, keep up the great work.Thats why you guys are always busy.

They are very knowledgeable of the menu and always willing to discuss other items you may like. This great family owned sushi restaurant has become a staple for me for sure! Their spicy tuna hand roll is amazing.

Ok guys, you guys are lucky to have this family run restauarnt in town. We have been to this fine sushi restaurant for over 10 years, too bad they moved from Mississauga. So far, they are only 2nd to the fresherness of sushi in Tsukiji Market in Japan, other than that, that would the the best sushi place you will find for a reasonable price. Give it a try if u r into sushi, u wont regret it.
