" I was really looking forward to visiting UglyRoll after hearing all the buzz. The food really exceeded my expectations; it was fresh, creatively plated, and delicious! However, the service was so-so, and it felt like we were given the run-around a bit when trying to get extra sauces. The restaurant’s layout isn’t ideal as it is quite small, which can make it uncomfortably crowded. Regardless of the vibe, the sushi quality makes it worthwhile. I look forward to my next visit already! " (*Curated Review*)

" UglyRoll is an extraordinary find! The owner has truly mastered the art of sushi. I went with friends and we shared a variety of rolls, with the standout being the Ugly Albacore Roll—the flavors were on point. The service was very friendly; we felt welcomed as soon as we walked in. I appreciate the personalized touch with the warm towels at the start. My only slight complaint is that the restaurant can feel a bit cramped, but the quality of the food definitely makes up for it. It’s a small space with a big heart! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to UglyRoll on a whim, and I was quite pleased with my choice. The sushi was fresh and the rolls had lovely combinations of flavors. The staff were friendly and provided great recommendations! The ambiance might not be for everyone as it was a little rustic, so if you're looking for a fancy night out, this isn't the place; however, if you want delicious sushi and warm service, then this is a fantastic spot! I will happily return for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my dining experience at UglyRoll, particularly due to the freshness of their sushi. However, I did experience some delays in service during peak hours, which can deter my return. The atmosphere is modest and simple, yet there is something charming about it. The portions were well-sized for the price, so I felt satisfied after my meal. All in all, a good place but could use improvement in service consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I didn’t know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised! The sushi was vibrant and tasted authentic. Each roll had its unique flair that showed creativity. The owner was exceptionally warm, making everyone's experience more enjoyable. I also loved watching the sushi chef at work through the open kitchen setup. It felt like a true culinary journey. While feeling small and rustic, the restaurant carries an undeniable charm. I highly recommend the Volcano Roll—so delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely the best sushi place I've been to in a while! Everything is fresh and the prices are unbeatable. I went during lunch hours, and the special rolls were a delightful surprise! The service was prompt and friendly, and I especially loved the digital menu that allows you to order without any pressure from the staff. The portions were satisfying, leaving us full without feeling overstuffed. Overall, a delightful dining experience that I can't wait to repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my first experience at UglyRoll last week and it was fabulous! The sushi was fresh and the flavors were incredibly vibrant. Whether you order nigiri or rolls, the quality is noticeably higher than many other places I've visited. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it a fantastic spot for dining alone or with friends. Highly recommend the Tempura for a side, it was perfectly crisp! I will definitely be coming back soon. Overall, one of my favorite sushi spots in LA. " (*Curated Review*)
