Everything we need tried impressed me so much that I can’t wait to go back.The owner is also a seasoned sushi chef and he is there making the sushi which makes a world of difference.Like I said, I found my favorite spot ?“

“so far everything I've tried has been delicious!“

“4.5 ⭐️s for overall experience! My friend, her kids, and I enjoyed our meal in mostly every way - flavors, service, and cleanliness. The house salad was healthy (not just iceberg lettuce) and had a generous portion for one person. My friend said it was super delicious - Sunset roll, blue crab roll, and miso black cod were on point flavor wise. Only negatives were that the seaweed was a bit chewy (not super tough though) and the soup slightly salty. The staff was kind, friendly, attentive, and patient - hard to come by these days. Prices are reasonable and I plan to come back. Parking is tougher at times in this plaza, but at some point, you'll find a spot.“

“This is one of the best and only place we like to go. They are very friendly and best fresh sushi all around. it really feels like a small family enviroment“

“This was our first time trying mazesoba. We didn't know much about ordering but our server was the most helpful. I had the Ocean mazesoba and my husband had the Supreme. The flavor was explosive, I mean we almost licked our plates. We are from Florida but will visit each time we come. Highly recommended“

“It was our first visit, and the server kindly explained everything to us. We both customized our ramen based on their recommendations, and it was definitely worth it. The portions were generous, leaving us completely satisfied. The ramen is among the best we've ever had. The chicken karaage was okay, but we probably wouldn’t order it again. We highly recommend the ramen!“

“Loved this place! Didn't know it was Japanese food until we looked it up. Lol. The tonkatsu curry was excellent! The katsu was fried perfectly and the meat was tender and melted in your mouth! We were looking for a local Japanese place to eat and we finally found one minutes away from us. Can't wait to go back!“

“The Kobe stakes is so testy . Assassins was as“

“Best Japanese Food in Whittier“

“I used to come here regularly and my first visit was back in 2001. The food and service has always been great. Mimi had quite the personality and perhaps some might've thought she was rude but I loved the character that she added. I'm not sure if she's still there but I know today I saw Yohan who has always been the most lovely pleasant server ever. I've heard some people tell me that it isn't the same and it has fallen down hill but today I went in with my father and I still enjoyed the atmosphere and the service. These are the THE BEST California rolls I've ever had. You can't beat the price on the quality of these rolls. Thank you for still making food I enjoy.“

“Just stopped by here for lunch for my kiddos and I and I’m so glad we did it was delicious! I got a teriyaki bowl with veggies. I’ve been to different teriyaki places and this has to be my top favorite now! Very fresh and flavorful the place is very clean Inside, and the employees were very sweet. Definitely give this place a try if you’re craving a teriyaki bowl.“

“This has been my go-to place now when i want to eat somewhere that is affordable, has a good value and in a setting where i can grab other things for my shopping on my way in or out. I find myself sitting for hours here enjoying a lot of food at good prices and just the ambience of being in a foodcourt setting.

Ther offer a curry dish and a katsu dish with everything they have. The curry dishes just has the item with rice and curry, however, if you add a dollar more, you get a katsu dish when includes a soup and salad. Theyre not stingy with their portions either, so expect all their servings to be huge. Its actually enough for me to take home and feed me for at least two more meals. Of all the options they have, i recommend the fish katsu - every time ive had it, i can barely close the lid, the texture is the most crunchy and the inside is cooked just right... and i just like fish.“

“My review is for a to go order I placed on Yelp. I found the menu to be pretty extensive with lots of options and combos for various preferences. I ordered a bento box combination and it was a ton of food! My order was ready to by the time I drove there, about 10 minutes or so, was a very easy process. All the food was vert hot and crunchy even when I got it home. They supplied all of the sauces, condiments, utensils, everything you would need to enjoy your meal. Overall it was happy with the food and service. Would love to sit in and dine some time. Will definitely be returning to try more things!“

“nice little place... friendly staff... good food.“

“ABSOLUTELY the BEST ramen I have ever had!!! The service is amazing, the fried pumpkin... off the hook!!! Spring rolls, yaaasssss!! I had the King Ramen...whoaaaaa! Daaaaammnnn!! You will NOT be disappointed. Thanks to the owners for the great experience.“

“Its open and they really made sure its safe , service and food perfect . Happy days“

“The food was really however you had to pay like 2 dollars for each additional topping which wouldn't be so bad if it were a sharable size so more than one person could use them

Kid-friendliness: Not many kid friendly options“

“Friendly waters and comfortable setting“

When you got time definitely should give a try!!! BTW, it's also pet friendly, they'll assign a place close to the front gate which will allow you to bring your pets and not bother other customer.“

“Have been coming here since the 80s, always have Excellent sushi 🤟👊👊“

“Great food and great service“

“Nice neighborhood sushi place where the chef greeted most customers by name when they came in, except me the first timer. Sushi was fresh and fresh wasabi was a good touch. It's funny that the chef was chatting in Korean with his friend.“

“ChatGPTI recently had the pleasure of dining at Omaniku, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From start to finish, the service was impeccable. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making the evening truly enjoyable.What made the evening even more special was the delightful birthday treat they surprised me with. It was a lovely gesture that added a personal touch to the dining experience, and it made me feel truly valued as a customer.Now, let's talk about the food. The dishes at Omaniku were not only visually appealing but also bursting with flavor. I could tell that the ingredients were of high quality, and the chef's skill was evident in every dish. Past reviews said the food wasn't high quality, and you need to consider how many courses you're getting at the price.One of the most pleasant surprises was the value for money that Omaniku offers. I've dined at several Michelin-starred restaurants around the world, and while they may offer slightly better food, they often come with a hefty price tag. Omaniku, on the other hand, provides a fine dining experience that is on par with these prestigious establishments but at a fraction of the cost. It's a fantastic option for those who want to enjoy exquisite cuisine without breaking the bank.Lastly, Omaniku is the perfect place for a romantic date night. The ambiance is intimate and cozy, making it an ideal setting for a special evening with your loved one. The combination of great service, delicious food, and the overall atmosphere creates a memorable dining experience.In conclusion, I highly recommend Omaniku. Don't be misled by other reviews; this restaurant truly exceeded my expectations. It's a hidden gem that offers an outstanding culinary experience without the exorbitant price tag.“

“This place is under new management. The previous owners were good but they re did this place and their menu. There are a lot more options and everything is fantastic. The chef/owner made the best sushi!!! And he was really nice and friendly. The waiter was nice and quick with our orders. We live right down the street so now we can come and eat even more often than before.“

“Conveniently located nearby!!“

“I'm not a foodie by any means, but this place throughly impressed me. I ordered the omurice with corn soup and fried chicken. The portion sizes was plenty for me and everything was really flavorful.

I would especially recommend the fried chicken. Each piece is huge compared to the typical karaage style chicken.

Would love to see this restaurant up in norcal!“

“Man Sun Sushi is a gem! The quality of the sushi here is outstanding – everything is fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. From classic rolls to creative chef specials, every dish feels thoughtfully crafted. The sashimi is melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the presentation is always impressive. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both casual lunches and special dinners. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring you have a great dining experience. If you’re a sushi lover, Man Sun Sushi is a must-visit!“

“This is my favorite sushi spot in all of So Cal. I'm a frequent visitor and have yet to have a bad experience. The hot night roll is one of the best rolls I've ever had. The sauces are made in-house, and you can definitely tell. Small touches like that make this place shine. The rainbow rolls are also top-notch. They also have other great options like Udon and bento boxes. The Bento boxes are great for when you can't decide on what you want. They're massive, though, and we rarely finish them. I'll never stop coming here.

Vegetarian options: They have sufficient vegetarian options.

Parking: You can get lucky and find curbside parking but there's also a huge free parking garage right across the street.

Kid-friendliness: It's a family friendly establishment.“

“We live in Pasadena, yet even with the abundant options in the city, we make the drive down for this spot. The premium sushi set (with bluefin, hamachi, belly, etc) is the best deal in town and the various options on the menu, from sanuki udon, to curry, to the donburi makes this place our go to for a great Japanese meal.“

“To over priced.“

“Great food and drinks. happy hour is the best“

“Excellent food and superb service. I give them a 10/10!!!“

“this place is bomb.!! and the service is incredible..“

“I originally went next door to the pita to go place and after standing inside the dark restaurant for 7 minutes a rude guy came out and was so rude I wasn’t going to spend my hard earned money inside this establishment so I went next door to wasabi n roll “sushi “ and I’m so glad I did… I ordered the bento #1 beef and it was soooo amazing and what was even more amazing was the customer service and the cleanliness of this establishment. I’m actually back again for the 2nd time this week lol“

“Highly commendable service and absolutely stunning set menu! we went here for dinner last night for our Halloween date night! Their wagyu cuts are 100% top-grade and not just random "wagyu" that are below the marks. We tried their A5 and M9 meats, not to mention their salmon carpaccio that is to die for. Their sides are absolutely delicious and smart, one great example is their fried pork buns that is like a spin on soup dumplings. To top it off, you get premium ice cream in the end. Their salad is so good with yuzu and smokey salt, plus you get a chili mix too. They serve the meats fast plus your tablet menu is in front of you so you don't have to keep calling the staff to refill. I give them 9 stars! 🌟 🐄 🥩“

“If you want to grab quick onigiri, you must try this place! I'm impressed with their onigiri, very tasty, and wanting endless bite! Not only did the place have good food but 2 staff's were great and gave the customers top notch service! I will come back here again for sure and definitely recommend fans of onigiri lovers!“

“Great customer service, fresh food and a local spot!“
