Yashima Restaurant offers a taste of Japan with fresh, tasty sushi and great Miso. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is clean. The Nigiri Sushi is a filling delight, and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is small and can get loud, but the restroom is clean. They may not have gluten-free soy sauce, but they are accommodating for dietary restrictions.
The sushi is exceptionally fresh, and the portions are very generous. Customers love the seared salmon and the mackerel, but any fish on the menu is delicious. The sushi pieces are bigger than most places. The restaurant has a small, intimate vibe, and it's clear that the regulars know each other well, creating a "home" feeling.
The sushi is consistently fresh and great, even with the recent change in ownership. The sweet Hidieo is still there, and the sushi is a Covina landmark. It's a small, hidden gem that offers a great lunch value, with fresh sushi and plate combinations to try a variety. While it's not an upscale sushi restaurant, the quality of the food and the community vibes make it a local favorite.
