50 Best Sushi Bars near Duarte

“The sushi here was excellent. The rice in the two rolls had a hint of yuzu that really elevated the flavor. Yuzu can sometimes be overpowering, but the chef used it perfectly to enhance the overall taste. It really brought the entire roll together. I especially enjoyed the Crunchy Albacore Roll—the balance of flavors was spot on.
The chirashi bowl was also plentiful and a great value for the price. The fish was very fresh, but the standout part was the rice. I’ve honestly never had sushi rice quite like this before. In addition to the classic vinegary sushi rice flavor, there was a subtle hint of yuzu that added an extra layer of freshness. When paired with the fish, it made the whole experience feel even more elevated.
If you come between 5:00 and 6:30, they offer 15% off during happy hour, which makes the experience even better.
Good food, good value. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Food was delicious!!! We had our two great granddaughters with us, they treated them so nicely, gave them extra tofu and attention!!! We will be visiting again soon!!“

“Delicious and Awesome service. Very accommodating, and attentive. Glad to have such a place in our neighborhood.

Updated 6.20.2026
It had been a long time and it was still delicious. I got a bento box, my son got ayce.
I feel like the empty cubby in my bento box could have been filled with a wedge of orange or a few edamame. And most olaces will also give a couple of tempura veggies not just the shrimp. I did get a lot of salmon.“

“Umebana has amazing food! I'm currently pregnant and I have been looking all over for a sushi place to make food accommodations for me when I have my cravings. Umebana is always so kind to me, the atmosphere is clean and enjoyable, and the food is always made exactly how I requested it, so delicious! Thank you for taking such great care of me“

“Great food and great service“

“Service was good and friendly. So were the chefs. In my honest opinion I don't think this place is authentically owned by Japanese people though, because the portions are HUGE like the rolls are 3-4x the size of a normal sushi roll but with 1/2 the flavor from what I am used to. It tasted good enough but not the authentic Japanese super flavorful delicate sushi I was looking for. The rolls was so big, there's not way you can fit the whole thing in your mouth at once so I tried to cut it but the seaweed was soft and wouldn't cut...lolll.. the plate became a destroyed piece of cut roll and I had to eat each piece in a smaller piece which ruins the flavor. There is way too much rice on the rolls. The restroom was not bad but also not great. They ran out of toilet seat covers and was slightly unkempt. A real Japanese owned restaurant would have an immaculate restroom. Inside was loud every table was prety much full.“

“A Delightful Sushi Experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The sushi was outstanding—fresh, expertly crafted, and beautifully presented. The chef’s special sashimi, were bursting with flavor. The nigiri was a standout, with perfectly seasoned rice and melt-in-your-mouth fish. Service was impeccable; the staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They even made excellent recommendations based on my preferences. One thing to note: Fillet doesn’t have a liquor license yet, so if you’re someone who enjoys pairing sushi with sake or wine, this might be a consideration. They said it’s coming soon, I can’t wait to come back here again.“

“Quality food & service at reasonable prices 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Sooo good! The garlic edamame was outstanding! I always order an eel avocado roll and this was one of the best I’ve had. Stopped in for an early dinner while working in the area. Service was prompt and friendly. Ambience was charming. But go for the food!“

“We were in the mood for some good ramen and sushi and ended up coming here after looking at the reviews and pictures. Needless to say this place was delicious and has a good variety of different options. Definitely recommend checking out the mixed tempura, soft shell crab and the spicy tonkotsu ramen. Hard such a hard time deciding on a roll but ended up going with a caterpillar roll that was very delicious and fresh. Good price and good quality for the location. Definitely coming back for more.“

“Excellent staff; great menu with a variety of nigiri sushi, specialty rolls, appetizers, bento plates, and ramen; and delicious sushi that is beautifully presented.

Shoutout to Daniel for friendly and attentive service.

Casual atmosphere. Ample free parking on-site. Reasonable prices.

Come here for yummy food and great customer service to boot!“

“Every bite feels like an artful blend of freshness, flavor, and precision. Good place for catching up with your favorite person�“

“We love Ezze, food is always great and the staff are awesome!“

“I really loved this place! Such a good spot for date night. I really enjoyed the bbq ribs appetizer. My boyfriend had the fried oysters appetizer all to himself. I loved the albacore served with very thin slices of onion and a small bed of rice. The California roll was superb. Washed it all down with their Nigori sake & crème brûlée. Love that they are open late on Saturdays too. 10/10 for me 😍“

“Great food and great service!“

“Very good service and good food!!“

“Neighborhood’s Japanese Restaurant with good Value !“

“One of the freshest—if not the best—sushi marketplaces in town! Yama Sushi Marketplace is a small shop that is always packed with locals looking to satisfy their sushi cravings, and after my first visit, I can definitely see why.

The store offers an impressive selection of Japanese goodies, including ramen, condiments, fresh sashimi, and a wide variety of sushi rolls. There are so many options and combinations to choose from. If you are looking for sashimi, head to the back of the store where they have conveniently packaged fish sold by the pound, and they will happily slice it for you. Or, if you are in a hurry, you can grab their freshly made sushi rolls from the refrigerators.

On my visit, I picked up ahi tuna, salmon, and yellowtail sashimi, along with California rolls and tuna rolls. Every piece of fish was incredibly fresh with a buttery texture and amazing flavor. The quality of the fish and the perfectly seasoned sushi rice were so good that I barely needed any soy sauce or wasabi.

I only recently discovered this hidden gem, but it has already become a place I will be visiting regularly. The sushi is high quality, reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. If you are a sushi lover, Yama Sushi Marketplace is definitely worth checking out!“

“Great restaurant, nice to be back . Love the food, the atmosphere and the staff“

“Excellent service fresh always“

“their section of food..sushi rolls, etc. Always fresh.“

“I've gotten sushi here a few times via Doordash. The quality of the sushi rolls is good overall, but the portion has gotten very small. The vegetable tempura is subpar considering the price they charge. (The pumpkin is sliced so thin and the taro is cut like the size of a pinky!)“

“Fresh and delicious! Great local spot!“

“If you like Sushi like I like Sushi this is the place with their AYCE menu. Laura is an amazing person to know, great energy. The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable, I always enjoy going there. When you go tell them you read Don's review, thanks! Enjoy“

“sushiland is truly a hidden gem in hacienda heights. I come here almost weekly with my girlfriend and I never had something we didn’t like. The scallop roll, scallop sushi, and wagyu sushi are absolutely amazing. Toro is always fresh and the beers are cold and cheap. We are always met with a smile by the employees and truly feel the good energy in the restaurant as well as the food we are served. Beyond thankful this is a 2 minute drive I urge anyone in LP or HH to give this place a shot- i’ve eaten at about every sushi place in Hacienda Heights and this one is clearly the best.

much love sushiland,
jeff“

“Enjoyed our quiet outdoor meal last night. Everything was delicious 😋“

“The food is so fresh. The presentation is very nice. Service is outstanding. pricing very reasonable. Best Sushi around for miles.“

“This is a really good sushi spot in a food court. The tempura, sushi, and bento boxes reminds of the old Sushi on Garfield takeout restaurant in Monterey Park (now permanently closed) before the owner changed its menu, but Sushi In The Box has many more choices.“

“This place is amazing! Great food and service is excellent. Thank you Mikomi“

“Me encanto muy amable elpersonal“

“A hidden gem AYCE sushi restaurant in Pasadena that really close to Arcadia. The fish was really fresh and we ordered a lot. Ordered all the limited sushi and we loved them. The no-rice rolls were really good too and we enjoyed it. The carpaccio it’s similar with sashimi and loved the salmon and tuna. The service was great and we enjoyed our dinner. There is sake and beer on discounted price and we drank a lot.“

“Great Japanese izakaya in West Covina. The sashimi was very fresh and cut surprisingly thick. We also enjoyed the Wagyu dishes, especially the Wagyu Donburi and Steak Bites. The Cumin Black Snapper was unique and unlike anything I’ve had at a Japanese restaurant before. Nice atmosphere, good presentation, and a great spot for sharing dishes with friends.“

“Always a great dining experience with great service. Kanpai!!!“

“Bomb poke indeed. First time here, so not sure what it was like before but everything I had was so delicious. The portions were generous and the price was fair. The ice cream was great as well. It all tasted like it was good quality. I'll be coming back for sure!“

“Just goggled and found. Good parking yummy food good choices. Abd large servings“

“The best sushi in souther California“

“Very helpful staff in choosing what to eat. The food is delicious and very fresh!“

“so good!!! yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“I ordered a few menu items via DoorDash. Unfortunately, DoorDash did not deliver one of the items and, they declined my request for a refund (warning to those who use DoorDash). I want to thank Mgr. Joshua for taking the time to deliver the item to me directly, that DoorDash failed to deliver. The food I did receive was delicious. Thank you again.“

“We had a wonderful experience at Yashima. The food was fresh and beautifully prepared, and everything we ordered tasted amazing. The sushi and sashimi were especially high quality. The atmosphere felt authentic and cozy, and the service was friendly and attentive. It’s clear they take pride in their food. We will definitely be coming back!“

“First time trying sushiholics and the experience was amazing variety of sushi, friendly staff and clean area. Definitely recommend coming here and trying out their sushi.“

“To over priced.“

“Wonderful restaurant, inside eating and pick-up, and store for plant based eating including for dogs (omnivores). And it is good enough for bringing non vegans. Although no fooling carnivores they seem happy and willing to come back too. Very casual no frills small place inside eating but I find room if you need a spot for a small group (4 or less).“

“This place is good! The food is good the portions are awesome and the price is excellent! 25 bucks for 2 plates shrimp and 2 drinks! In 2026! The place is very clean and people are very nice! I was gonna take pictures of my food but I ate it and forgot.“

“I’ve been coming to sushi rolland for a while now, and I’d say, I’m pretty satisfied! I’ve been impressed by the freshness of the their fish, especially their salmon. I LOVE salmon, and their salmon is buttery and very good quality. For their price and quality, I’d say it’s definitely worth it. I’ve tried their salmon delight, crunch roll, dragon roll, blossom roll, salmon avocado combo, combo an and combo c. I tried out their new menu today, the salmon crunch, and I really liked it (apologies for the half eaten picture). Might be my new go to menu item. I really the fried onions on there. I always like getting their miso soup, such a good combination with the sushi. Highly recommend their combo plate, especially combo A!“

“I recently dined at this sushi restaurant, and it was much more delicious than I expected

-Sushi:
We ordered yellowtail, albacore, and salmon sushi and they were unbelievably fresh, with each bite melting like butter. The quality of the fish was outstanding, and my boyfriend especially loved their salmon.

-Calamari Tempura:
It was crispy, and cooked to perfection. It came with a refreshing salad, and the house-made dressing added a burst of flavor that tied it all together.

- Baked Lobster Roll:One of my favorites! It was perfectly balanced and full of rich, satisfying flavors.
- Aloha Roll:A must try!, with just the right amount of spiciness, making each bite extra enjoyable.
- Salmon Roll:This roll was also incredibly fresh, with every bite bursting with flavor. I couldn’t recall the exact name because I was too busy savoring every mouthful!
- Monster Roll:It was packed with bold flavors and had the perfect harmony—absolutely delicious.

Service:
- Our server was kind and friendly, making the experience even better. I don’t understand some of the negative reviews about their service—we had a great time and felt well taken care of.“

“Moxie is a great place for family and friends to hang out. Outdoor seating is cool and comfy. Super yummy food by Japanese Chef. Staffs are super nice and helpful too. They sanitize before seating the customers. They even prepare small bottle of hand sanitizer on every table which customers can bring home. During COVID, they have continous deals such as AYCE before, and now $1 skewer. It's a 'must try' dining. A cool place to chill. Highly recommended.“

“Good food, portions & service...“

“Such a super fun place with yummy food! Bring your stretchy pants!!

The restaurant is clean and decorated to have a good time! The service was very friendly and helpful!

They offer both KBBQ and seafood boil. We had both and enjoyed each bite.

They also have a bar area offering sides for your KBBQ and so many roll choices.

We had the premium menu and took advantage of their amazing offer of a free boil (deal ends soon, check restaurant). The premium menu had plenty of choice meats offered including seafood choices such as shrimp and octopus.

The servers there were quick to change out the grill for us and make sure we had everything we needed.

The boil itself was generous and tasty. We had the house special flavor, which I recommend! In their boil they offer one crab or lobster pp. we had one of each and wow! Felt special!

We will be back!“
