Seabutter - Westlake Village

The wait was a little long but this is as expected as this place is brand new. Though the prices are a bit steep as-well the quality of the food is unmatched by any other sushi restaurants in the area. High recommend if you are looking to celebrate with a little more luxury! Our favorite was the Chicken Teriyaki.

We were able to experience this new location during their soft opening for my birthday with some family. There were six adults total and we arrived just a little after opening since they were not currently taking reservations.

We were seated right away with no issues, they pushed a two top and a four top together and we're super nice. The location is rather small on the inside but they do fit in a decent amount of seating. We were sat right by the door so it was a little cold (rainy out) but not a big deal.

In terms of service everyone was nice and able to explain dishes to various people in our group as well as accomodation our vegetarian with a veggie "sushi" plate (carrot on rice sushi, avocado on rise and one other as well as a little bit of mushrooms and a veggie roll). This was not on the menu but our server offered it right away which was very nice.

Our "bus boy" was who we had the most contact with and who checked in on us the most. Super friendly and fun dude and a great addition to their team, I wish I would have gotten his name. But found him to be the most helpful of the folks there.

Food was good overall with our least favorite things being the classic pieces of sushi. Sadly the few pieces we got were chewy which was a surprise since the pieces of fish as a part of our other dishes were good (maybe bad luck). The "Emma" sushi was interesting and pretty tasty.

Our rolls (sunset and three others) were interesting and very good as was the sashimi dish we got (a tuna with truffle and mushrooms).

One couple in our group got the sea bass and thought it was very good as well.

Dessert options are currently limited to a few ice cream flavors (since we were there for a birthday celebration we were hoping they had something good or interesting or would say happy birthday or something.. but not so much). Not a big deal, don't typically expect a ton of dessert at sushi spots but thought their other locations offered more choices (but could be wrong), just a note. We headed to another spot for treats after.

Overall we would definitely go back, service was very good and there were a lot of unique rolls and dishes to try. If we were looking for just straight classic sushi there is another local spot we would probably go to but this was great for the variety and delicious combinations of flavors!

Bill was under $300 for six adults (one couple shared a main though and only two people got alcohol, one drink each) and some teas and one soda.

Photos of most everything except the sea bass and edamame we got.

Sushi was good. Toro is really fresh

Came here for dinner, 10/10 recommend, staff is super friendly food is super yummy, def will be coming back and soon too!

Been waiting for this place to open for sometime now. After getting a taste the other day, I can easily say that we finally we have good local sushi!!!
