Q Sushi - Japanese restaurant in Westlake Village - 30770 Russell Ranch Rd ste a, USA

[Im leaving my original review below for "historic" purposes but thought I'd update: The bartender, Eric, has left Q. Im not impressed with replacements. Their mixing is fine, but lacking Eric's personality and finesse. Also, the Happy Hour menu has become much less attractive: same items, less care and quality. Also, clientelle has become more snobby - not the restaurant's fault but nevertheless - reeks of entitlement]. ---- Yes, the happy hour and sushi here are well worth the visit, but what I really want to highlight is Eric, the bartender, who masterfully balances the limited but wonderfully crafted cocktail selections. The Cucumber Seji Smash is PERFECT for a hot summer day, the Scorched Orange is AWESOME for the colder months, and this pictured here, is his artisan creation, the Desert Rose (between salmon sashimi and nigori saki - love the traditional earthenware serving carafe):

Stunning ambiance. Clean restrooms. Great drink options. Friendly staff. Exquisite food! Everything we had was amazing.

Great food. Tons of vegetarian friendly options. Brussel sprouts are great. Cocktails are always great here

My family and I enjoyed our dinner. We ordered several specials, drinks and deserts, all were delicious! The presentation was nice and great portions. The service is prompt and staff is friendly. They have nice outside seating.

Like Qsushi... great food. But tonight I went by myself... was blatantly lied to as I asked for a single seat at the sushi bar, one was obviously open (I was waiting for 15 minutes and that seat was open for the whole time), yet I was told that seat was not available. So I was told 40 minutes. I'm still going to eat here, but damn I hate to be treated so disrespectful. Tip will suffer.

This is an amazing sushi spot. High quality fish, great service, and AMAZING atmosphere. Cocktails are great too.

An amazing sushi place in a nice area. Great selection of fish as well as unique (but not too crazy) rolls. Easily one of the best sushi restaurants in the area.

I had the 7 course omakase and upgraded it to the VIP and it tasted really good! Presentation was beautiful! One of my favorites was the soup with clams in it! The service was also great! I think the dessert with the omakase was sub-par. I got a deep fried oreo. I ordered the spiced old fashioned which was also good. I recommend dipping the shishito pepper in the drink and get some spice in the drink
