Went to this place last Friday night, early so as to partake of the 'discounted menu selections'. Well as this goes, happy hour didn't make me very happy. Discounts only applied...

Best food in town 7/7/2011

Best food in town Food is amazing. Every time I come here, I feel like I never want to leave. Very chic atmosphere with a relaxing mood. The service is great and the staff really does a terrific job at taking care of you. The appetizers are delicious. Theres plenty of places to park: theres a parking lot across the street and a parkin garage up the street within walking distance. Most of the time I find myself looking at my watch waiting for the food to come, but here I was so entertained with the fun atmosphere that I was pleasantly surprised when my food arrived more

Albo-cado - WOW! 6/14/2009

I went to Zip Fusion for a business lunch and the place, food and service was so good that business quickly turned into pure fun! Zip is an upbeat place with great food and the service was perfect. I would recommend it to anyone who is in the downtown area. I have even pledged to make it a point to take my wife back for dinner one evening this summer. Pros: Convenient, upbeat and delicious! Cons: Can't think of one more

Lobster roll is crazy good! Friendly staff, great outside patio for a romantic dinner 11/26/2008

The seaweed salad is light, crunchy, and a savory mix of ingredients that you don't stop enjoying until you swallow. The lobster roll is huge and very yummy with scallions and served on top of a CA roll. Spicy tuna can unclog any sinus! The staff is friendly and they remember you. We have been going about 3-5 times a month and every time we go they bring out a new complimentary appetizer and dessert. It has a lovely patio where you can dine and feel private and relaxed. This is a hidden gem! Pros: Affordable inventive and delicious sushie rolls, with great service andambience to boot! Cons: NONE!! Seriously more

Fusion at its most not very impressive, misleading as to discounts for happy hour 3/4/2008

Went to this place last Friday night, early so as to partake of the 'discounted menu selections'. Well as this goes, happy hour didn't make me very happy. Discounts only applied to certain appetizers and only the draft beer. So bottled beer was regular price, as was any sushi or entree and surprisingly, not even a discount on the hot sake. The service from the hostess with the drinks and appetizers was attentive and courteous. However, the sushi guys were too busy crafting hordes of premade roll-bases for later maybe when the place gets busier, or maybe it was for some large crowd of people that were invisible to my untrained eye. They were slow on our orders and even forgot to make a couple of pieces. Be that as it may, the appetizers were good but kinda pricey and small. The sushi was not as good as many of the other sushi places in the surrounding area. It was alright, but since this place is in an area where good sushi might be just in the place next door to the one you're in, I would check that place next door out instead. Pros: Seating and Service for drinks was good. Cons: Not the best value in the area. more

Cute Patio, Average Food 10/27/2007

I've been to Zip several years ago when the lofts haven't even broken ground yet next door. The food is good, and still is. The menu has a typical selection for a Japanese fusion restaurant, nothing out of the ordinary. The selection is common of fusion creations. The sushi is like any other sushi restaurant in the area, not horrible. Several people in my office came here regularly but have reduced their visits because of the other restaurants opening in Downtown. There is a peaceful patio enclosed by greenery, and although it's not Zen (along the lines of Japanese food/ ambience), it radiates a rustic country back-to-nature feel; it's great for the lunch breaks. During my recent visit, I notice the crowd is more Downtown residents and not so much the metropolitan locals anymore. Service is fast and friendly. Pros: Great Garden Patio, Fast Service Cons: Limited Street Parking, Common Menu Selection more

Great for large/fun groups. If you get the party room to the right they play fun music. 9/28/2007

I love it. They have solid sushi and an unbeatable atmosphere. It's randomly placed in the middle of nowhere downtown, but it's kinda like a little surprise. Hahaha more

Zippity do ha ...my oh my what a wonderful place 5/28/2007

After running through a list of possible destination for sushi, we decided on Zip Fusion.Part convenience (It is located nearby in the artist district in downtown), part good ratings...we decided to give it a try. We sat in the patio which had a great ambiance and felt very comfortable. The service was efficient and friendly, we never felt like we had to flag down our server or wait for drinks, nor were we rushed. The sushi was delicious, 3 types of tuna were tasty and fresh, the BSCR roll was delicious! All the dished ordered were pleasingly presented. The menu provided a variety of options and the prices were reasonable. They serve beer, wine, sake, soju, no liquor...but have some alternatives. Al in all we look forward to returning to dine at zip fusion. A quaint place with good vibes and tasty sushi. Pros: good vibes, patio, BSCR roll Cons: no liquor more

Beware misleading prices, bad service. 4/25/2007

Although the restaurant is nice and the food is okay, the service is horrible. In Los Angeles there are many other restaurants that taste better, have cheaper prices, and better service. Pros: Food taste pretty good Cons: Expensive for what it is, bad service, misrepresented prices for happy hour more

Great fusion sushi 3/16/2007

Went last night, after several visits, and this was the best yet. Tried the Cozy Shrimp appetizer - fantastic! Gyoza wrappers are wrapped around shrimp and then deep fried. And the Lobster roll was sensational - little bits of lobster in a saute of onions and other vegetables, served over a California roll. more

Pricey but okay 11/11/2006

Food is a little pricey, portions are kind of small. Drinks are good. The one on Sawtelle has karaoke which is a draw for parties. more

Superb Overall 10/29/2006

It's hard to pick out any one thing about Zip Fusion that makes it great, but only because everything is extremely good. The atmosphere is wonderful (sit outside, but make reservations to do so), the California rolls are some of the best I've had, although R-23, which is close in proximity has overall better sushi, the service is good and relatively quick, and everything on the menu is excellent, all for fairly reasonable prices. Pros: Great Ambience, Very good food, Romantic Cons: Not always open...check ahead of time more
