50 Best Sushi Bars near Compton

“If you know, you know—this spot kills it when it comes to mariscos. The ceviche is super fresh, packed with flavor, and the aguachile? Straight-up addicting. Heat, lime, crunch—everything you want in every bite.

Do yourself a favor and try the Dos Banderas plate. It’s bomb. Two styles, one plate, and somehow both slap equally hard.

Service is always on point, the vibes are chill, and it’s clear they care about the quality. Easily my go-to when that marisco craving hits.

Highly recommend—this place deserves all the love.“

“The staff are friendly. We enjoyed the Kitchen boat. The garlic fried rice with chicken was very good and tasted similar to hibachi fried rice. Brought my young nephews and they enjoyed the beef and chicken teriyaki. Will definitely come again and will try other sushi and noodles dishes.“

“Honestly expensive but I think it's a sharable portion size. I got Thai tea and a regular size poki bowl spent $20 but I couldn't even finish my bowl it's so much food. It all tasted delicious to me . Customer service is clearly not a top priority but you get your food quick .“

“First time coming here.. First impression was very good, the staff was very friendly and they give me good recommendation and the place is clean, a very pleasant environment. The food is very delicious and the flavors are very rich, I really recommend you here.“

“Probably some of the freshest sushi I’ve ever had. There was a flyer left on a car at the park in Torrance and I was craving sushi so decided to go try it wonderful sushi very good. Customer service very friendly. Definitely going back there for my sushi. they weren’t stingy they hooked it up with a lot of filling . They added a lot of avocado, and I got the California rolls and it had a lot of the crab made perfectly so glad I found a new sushi place.“

“Super cute! The food was fast and fresh for weekday late lunch. Ample spacious seating and friendly staff! I did not try the scallop or watch trio bc I didn't like the teriyaki or mayo/onion on the salmon. I wanted the scallops plain or with the salt sauce, but it wasn't available. But otherwise, the fish were a good temp, well portioned (cut), and delicious. I order various salmon sashimi, nigiri, yellow tail, and tuna dishes.“

“Love this place .. the staff there is so friendly It’s amazing they make you feel so welcomed and the food is so fresh.“

“A small hidden gem!!! We were there just last Friday. The service (as always) was wonderful, the food scrumptious and though last Friday we were sat immediately (we just happened to beat the crowd). We have had to wait a few times; and I assure everyone it is worth the wait!“

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.“

“Love this place,my family and friends have been going there for years,was so bummed when it burned down but just as good after it came back,always my first choice when I get the chance to be in town, and always great�“

“Not that I've eaten at a ton of high-end omakase sushi restaurants, but Sushi Sonagi is one of the best omakase restaurants I've had in the world.

Chef Son seems to do a seasonal menu, but sources and prepares fish uniquely that not only tastes absolutely amazing, but also in a way that I didn't taste at several other, Michelin-starred omakase sushi restaurants. For example, I personally do not enjoy the taste of salmon, but the one Chef Son prepared (he described it as a 1 in 1000 salmon) did not have a strong salmon flavor at all, and it ended up being one of my favorite courses out of the whole meal. It should speak volumes of his skill that he could turn one of my least favorite ingredients into a dish I hope I'll be able to eat more of.

While I'm not a big sake person, the waitress (I assume his wife but I don't know for sure) was happy to recommend a sake based on my taste preference and she really nailed it, it was one of the best tasting sakes I've ever had as well.

Chef Son was also very conversational, and as a local South Bay resident he was able to chat with all the customers about a ton of stuff. Mostly food and cooking of course, but also other things as well. It was a much more relaxed and casual setting than other places at the $200+ price point, which I appreciated.

These types of restaurants are usually one and done for me no matter how good they are, but Sushi Sonagi is the first one I'm seriously considering returning to, and sooner rather than later.“

“a minimal seating and parking area; but amazing service, great atmosphere, and top-notch food! Sushi, soups, bento boxes, you name it! everything is fresh and made to order. I love this gem of a restaurant.

Parking: parking is limited due to it being in a small center.“

“Yoooo! If aint had their Cali rolls youre missing out on life. These are THE BEST cali rolls I've had. Sakae Sushi Cali rolls big and the flavor is thru the roof. You dont need to add anything lol maybe a little wasabi but thats it. Its very old school sushi please GO!!!“

“Not sure how I haven’t left a review here yet—this is my go-to sushi spot in the area. I always start off with the spicy garlic edamame and calamari, both great appetizers. Depending on the day, if you order a beer you sometimes get a free fried corn poppers appetizer, which is actually surprisingly good.

My usual go-to rolls are the Hungry Roll and Samurai Roll, but honestly everything I’ve tried here has been solid. Service is always good as well.“

“It was great ! Good service nice atmosphere and good food .“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Best sushi in LA! Everything melted in your mouth! The fish is fresh, the price is affordable, and the service is great! It looks like a hole in the wall - but wow :)) We eat there once a week and love it! Drove all the way from Studio City to have dinner there - 2 hours each way in traffic - so that's obviously what it says :)) Haha Just love it!“

“Kihon is the BEST sushi restaurant in Long Beach hands down. Go enjoy the tastiest food and you can thank me later! 😀“

“Great service, friendly staff and the owner, Paul, showed warm hospitality. The prices were great and the quality of the food will definitely have me going back!“

“Quality fresh sushi, creative to. I wish they deliver to Santa Monica , but I will pick up :)“

“Great place for sushi! Servers are friendly and attentive. Food is great for a quick bite or small gathering. We have had birthday lunches here with 6+ people and they accomodates very well even though the the restaurant is on the smaller side.“

“Sushi mafia is by far the best preparation of Sushi and sushimi I recommend this place to all my friends and family everybody come out and enjoy the best I've had highly recommend this place.“

“Amazing joint To eat celebrate enjoy company“

“I’ve ordered here 3 times and food here has been consistently fresh. This place is near where I live. I was surprised to find out it was just a take out establishment during my first visit. But services have been quick and they have gotten the orders right so far. They often send out discount codes which are very helpful in this economy. Prices are fairly reasonable. Try it if you’re in the mood for sushi!“

“I have been enjoying meals at Okane Umi since 2016. They have always been excellent in every category of service. The restaurant has had its share of ups and downs but I am happy with how strongly Okane Umi has powered up its menu and added some wonderfully flavorful genuine Japanese dishes. Im pleased they have reinforced their sushi, sashimi, chirashi offerings - I love this restaurant.“

“So straight up the service is sloppy. They are super kind and get you what you ask for but there's just no... refined skills is the only way I can think of putting it. It's a well-oiled machine as far as getting the food out getting the people their drinks and cycling through.. sit down and DO NOT expect a luxurious experience but definitely a Tasty one!:)
The rolls and food are beautifully prepared and executed. Except the calamari.
It's a small venue, crowded, busy and a good value.“

“good sushi and locally owned“

“Great deal! The buy 2 get one free roll was very fresh. Service was prompt. Sapporo, nice and cold. Sat down right away. Nice atmosphere. Free parking by Post Office. Clean. 1 st time here from OC. Was going to Kaiser when I saw the banner in front. Great flavors! Flat screens.“

“We had a really nice experience here! We tried the coconut chicken soup, and it was good, but the spice level was pretty mild. I love spicy food, so I was hoping for more of a kick :(
but it was still flavorful.

The pineapple fried rice and sushi were both yummy .
The waiter was also very friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better.

Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back again☺️“

“Best sushi restaurant! Best specialty rolls, sushi, cucumber salad, EVERYTHING! The atmosphere is fun and festive! And Owner, Managers, wait staff and sushi chefs are friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable ! Don’t like going anywhere else for my sushi!“

“Great dinner at Izakaya Ringo tonight! The sushi and sashimi were incredibly fresh and flavorful — especially the golden eye snapper, halibut, and Spanish mackerel.

Grabbed a beer, watched the Dodgers game, and enjoyed the relaxed vibe. The staff was very friendly and the service was spectacular!“

“Alway great fresh sushi with every visit. Happy a polite staff!!“

“By far the best sushi I’ve ever had! The quality here is unmatched—the sushi is extremely fresh and cannot be beat. I ordered the Rainbow Roll, and it was made to absolute perfection with beautiful presentation and incredible flavor.

Not only was the sushi outstanding, but the Udon noodles were unbeatable—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. This place really delivers on taste, quality, and overall experience.

I will definitely be back in the future. If you’re a sushi lover, Sushi Island is a must-try!“

“Went in for a quick bite mid-afternoon and ended up staying for an early dinner. Sat at the sushi bar, ordered nigiri; yellowtail, kurodai, tuna and salmon, mixed tempura, and green teas that were better than expected. The iced was this cloudy matcha situation in case you like that type of iced tea.

Excited to see kurodai on the menu. There were a few specials but we stuck to the basics for this round.

Everything came out beautifully presented and the fish was genuinely fresh across the board. The crispy rice is the move. Caramelized, warm, light spicy tuna on top. Comes heavy on the sauce so just know that going in. We will ask for a lighter touch next time but it was still delicious.

Easy parking, no wait, fair prices, great space (cool art! chill vibe) Long Beach top three sushi. No question.“

“I love having lunch here. The udon is so rich and full of umami. The yellow tail nigiri and BBQ eel are my favorite, melt in your mouth sushi. The staff is also amazing and extremely helpful. Shout out to BOBBIE, THE GOAT, for her recommendations. Definitely a weekly go to spot, it's that good.“

“Fantastic dinner ! Chefs John and James are great ! We love it!“

“Friendly sushi chef and staff Fresh sushi and tasty kitchen food Highly recommend“

“Tried Trave Sushi and everything was so fresh and delicious. We ordered rolls and they were honestly really good. great quality and flavor. We came about an hour before closing and they still sat us right away with no attitude which I really appreciated.

Customer service was great too we spoke with Frank, super friendly and made the experience even better. The spot is very takeout friendly but still comfortable if you dine in.

I also loved that they have options for people who don’t like fish, like veggie rolls and beef rolls. We got the King Kong roll and it was huge and sooo good.

Only small downside is they don’t have fountain drinks, but honestly the food and service made up for it. Everything we tried was delicious and we’ll definitely be back!“

“My first review! My visit here last night was nothing short of a revelation in the art of sushi dining. Celebrating its 17th year, this gem of a restaurant has not just stood the test of time; it has set the bar for what authentic Japanese cuisine can embody. Though it is not your modern izakaya nor fine-dining luxury, it firmly facets itself as the "OG" restaurant in the diverse Japanese dining scene. Immediately upon entering, I observed details of its classic entity by old decos of art, calligraphy, signs, photos, and handwritten notes. It was an ambiance that exuded warmth. I immediately felt the history and dedication woven into the fabric of this place. The owners have crafted not merely a restaurant but a sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer nuances of Japanese culture and cuisine. I opted for the sushi combo course. Each piece of sushi was a testament to the chef's mastery over his craft, with every ingredient shining through in a delicate balance of flavors and textures with a properly curated course. All the nigiri boasted freshness in a blend of tastes that was above satisfactory by the plate. But what truly sets Sushi Anza apart is the heart and soul poured into every aspect of the dining experience. From the attentive, yet unobtrusive service to the meticulous presentation of the dishes, you can feel the love and dedication that the owners have for their craft. It's this personal touch combined with an "aged" ambience that transforms a meal into an experience. In a world where the genuine essence of Japanese cuisine can sometimes be lost amidst fusion and innovation, Sushi Anza stands as a beacon of tradition and quality. Overall, my first visit here was a nostalgic journey through the very essence of Japanese tradition, guided by the hands of those who know and respect it the most. I cannot recommend Sushi Anza enough and look forward to many more visits. I hope to regain the same authentic warmth, excellence, and quality that hallmarks the culinary gems of Torrance.“

“Best place in town! Thank you Yoshisan! 💙 he’s BIG DODGER FAN LIKE ME! DODGER MEMORABILIA GALORE IN SMALL RESTAURANT!💙⚾️🤙“

“I have been going here for years. Stopped in for some bowls today. The combo bowl and chicken bowl were tasty. Also ordered some California Roll and it was okay. Out of the 5 pieces two were missing Avocado. The teriyaki sauce was also an odd consistency this time so we passed on eating that. Service was quick and friendly when ordering.“

“I came all the way from Highland Park (near Dodger Stadium) to check it out. I’m glad I did! They have limited yet free parking (plaza parking). The food is delicious and affordable. Their portions are nice too. The staff are friendly and the environment is authentic yet modern. The music is great and not too loud.“

“I have been going to this place for years so my review comes as a collection of visits. Plenty of parking in the plaza. Enter the local and have the host take your name down if it's busy. If not they typically sit you down right away. The servers are friendly. The food here is great. You must take advantage of the lunch combos they offer. Combo B is the way to go. Soup, salad, your choice of any roll plus 2 hand rolls. It's a lot of food and you get your money's worth. They have alcohol on the menu as well. There is kids seating available. Would definitely recommend. It's not the best sushi in the world but it's a place to take care of the sushi craving. The staff is welcoming and just a nice place to have lunch or dinner.“

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.“

“Really good spot for takeout pho. The broth was super flavorful and still hot when I got home, which I really appreciated. Everything was packed neatly and the portions were actually pretty generous for the price.

I got the pho to-go and the ingredients all tasted fresh, especially the herbs and bean sprouts. Service was quick and easy too. Definitely one of those places I’d come back to whenever I want something warm and comforting after a long day 🍜“

“I recently had a wonderful dining experience at Sushi Ai in Long Beach and wanted to share my thoughts. While I don't typically eat sushi or sashimi, I was in search of quality katsu, and Sushi Ai exceeded my expectations. I visited on a Sunday evening and opted for their dinner combo, which proved to be an excellent choice. The portion sizes were generous, and the quality of the food was impressive. The katsu, in particular, was exceptional - perfectly crisp on the outside and tender within. Although I didn't partake in the sushi offerings, the selection appeared diverse and appealing. The ambiance of the restaurant is pleasantly relaxed, and the staff were attentive and professional. The service was prompt and efficient, contributing to an overall smooth dining experience. Sushi Ai in Long Beach is a versatile establishment that caters to various preferences. Whether you're a sushi enthusiast or prefer cooked Japanese dishes, I believe you'll find something to enjoy here. The restaurant successfully balances quality, value, and a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend Sushi Ai for anyone in the Long Beach area looking for a satisfying Japanese meal. It's a testament to the diverse culinary options our city has to offer. #SushiAi #LongBeachDining #JapaneseCuisine“
