50 Best Sushi Bars near Hacienda Heights

“AKASAKA. WOW. I was on set and got hungry so me & G3 went to the sushi joint that’s literally tucked away and VERY IYKYK (if you know, you know). All I gotta say is that the Yellowtail Cut Roll got me dancing. The hospitality was great, we were given Iced Green Teas on the house because we were waiting for our to go orders. I gotta dine inside soon & get the real experience.

“Great local sushi spot with stone decent pricing!

Seating is very limited and the menu gives off a bit of a dated feel but you really can't argue the classics when they're done well.

Sushi rice had just a bit of tang and was light and fluffy.

Dishes were presented very well and our server was thoughtful and cautious enough to make sure our table wasn't overflowing. We ordered about 6 items and by the 3rd plate things were crowding up.

Blue crab avocado roll ($9) - A little heavy on the Japanese mayo and rice but it made for a great presentation on the plate it was on.

Tempura mixed ($9) - 3 pieces of shrimp and 3 pieces of veggies. I'm on the fence with this one since I really enjoyed the presentation but felt like the batter on the shrimp was heavy and the veggies were mostly extra starchy items.

Mini spicy tuna bowl ($9) - This was a pleasant favorite! Just the right amount of heat and a decent amount of tuna over that delicious sushi rice. The first couple of bites where the cold tuna contradicts the warm rice was like being able to eat that feeling of walking on the warm sand and letting the chilly ocean water cool you off.

Amberjack/Hamachi Tuna ($5/piece) - This was interestingly a lighter flavor than what we were familiar with. The cut was thin but blanketed the rice with just a small swipe of sauce and a dab of yuzu paste on top. Playing perfectly well with the tangy rice but also all being a star of the bite while being clean.

Grilled Tuna Belly ($12) - This was the star of the table. Lightly grilled with a bit of crispy edges, seasoned and topped with garlic and micro greens and paired with a dipping sauce on the side to choose how heavy or light you prefer to dip.

Tempura Ice cream ($7) - Couldn't leave our first visit without trying a dessert item. Classic fried ice cream that is wrapped with pound cake and rolled in their delicious tempura batter. Saving room for this is a must if you grew up demolishing these in the early 2000s.

Hidden gems are great to find and it feels like this place has a lot of classics that give you a homey feel where you don't know where to start. Just dive in and make sure you mark off the ones you've tried because there are a good amount of dishes that were of value and quality here.

The best suggestion is to focus on the sushi and always check the sushi list.“

“Excellent sushi. Creative menu. Great wait staff.“

“The food was good .the place very clean ,service very good ,waiter very polite“

“Conveniently located nearby!!“

“This may be one of the best sushi deals in Southern California. I know that once the word is out that it’ll be harder to get in, but they deserve the recognition.“

“Great food and great service“

“The food here was so delicious! The quality of the sashimi is really fresh. We got the Chubby Sashimi, and it did not disappoint. The price for the food is also really reasonable. The Chubby Sashimi was only $60. At other places, it would probably be at least $100. The oysters were amazing. They were super clean and tasted buttery. My kids loved the rolls so much they wanted seconds. Our server was so nice and attentive. Overall, everything was amazing. Definitely would recommend this place.“

“The Vegan Sushi is dam good. Worth going again and again. Our waiter was amazing and nice and patient with us. If you are Hindu vegetarian you will love the vegan sushi. My son is a picky eater and he ate the house down. My daughter ate Ramen and she enjoyed it“

“Out of this world omakase. Yum!“

“Great menu. Great service. My go to Teriyaki and Sushi place!“

“The place is nice and clean with really kind waiters and waitresses. the food is amazing and has a very nice veriaty of sushi, sashimi, and apparisers and sides. I would definitely recommend the ramen and takoyaki. would recommend to any one who likes sushi“

“This place is incredible. Everything I ordered was amazing; the fish/shellfish was fresh and cooked perfectly when applicable, the sauces were great, and the portions and pricing are beyond reasonable. I’ll definitely be coming here frequently.“

“Fabulous and delicious food the staff are great“

“Celebrated a graduation here and had a great time. Were seated promptly, had excellent service, enjoyed the lively atmosphere. Food was tasty and beautifully presented. Management came by and brought dessert for the table on the house for the graduate, very thoughtful and appreciated. Made the meal that much more special. Would go again.“

“I came into Yuki Sushi in the Sheraton wanting Lychee Martini’s for a group of friends. Sean- the bartender- went to the hotel pantry and Googled a recipe to make us a round of Lychee Martini’s that were not on the menu. I applaud this outstanding customer service, and Sean for his initiative and time to do this for us. I am so impressed by the service at this hotel and we thank you Sean!!“

“The building and location are a little sketchy, but everything else is excellent. Small, very intimate atmosphere. Not much privacy. Menu options are simple. Food is fresh and worth the price. Even the sides, like house salad, miso soup, and hot sake, are quality.“

“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.“

“Came here with high hopes and was not disappointed. Had to ask for the omakase since it was not on the menu. There's the 100$ level and the boss level for 150$. I honestly dont know what the difference was even though the very nice wait staff tried to explain it to me. It was just a bunch of japanese words lol. Anyhow I went yolo and got the boss level and it was the best 150 i spent that day. Every dish was mostly perfect except for the dessert. They need to up their dessert game.“

“We have recently been going to this sushi it is one of the best sushi place. The sushi’s are super fresh and delicious. It’s a very nice and friendly environment. We love it that it’s so local to us.
P.S. The blue crab rolls are a must.“

“Food was great. The wait staff was very poorly trained. Was not sure what roll was what had to remind them to bring items.“

“One of our favorites for family night or date night!“

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

“Great food and service. Been going there over 7 years. Get there early. Leía and Lily are awesome. Luis is the sushi master!“

“Ive been eating here since it opened. The sushi is always fresh tasting. Great portions for the price. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Fast service I will definitely recommend Sushi n go!“

“Food here was pretty good. Portions were quite large and not the typical Izakaya size. We got the Korean fried chicken which was really tasty. The crispy rice was ok. The regular size yakitori skewers gave quite generous portions. The decor inside is very nice.“

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

“Excellent food ..friendly staff.. clean restaurant“

“The service was professional and great. The staff are very friendly. Covid protocols are adhered to at the door. Temperature checks are required prior to entering the dining area. The food is excellent. If you love sashimi and sushi then you must visit.“

“Small, lowkey restaurant that has the best quiet and comforting atmosphere. They have origami all around the area and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much to Luke for serving us and making sure we had a great time; I loved the rainbow roll and mushroom bomb here!“

“I will definitely recommend this place. The food is excellent, and the price is very affordable. Even on these days where everywhere else try to cut on portions, here you will get very satisfied. The staff is always friendly. I will definitely stop by again.“

“Excellent service fresh always“

“Not sure how I haven’t already reviewed this place as we go all the time and have introduced it to several friends. All their rolls are DELICIOUS 🤤 We often get the caterpillar and the Thor-no-rice rolls. But honestly all their rolls are great!“

“The omakase was delicious and well priced for $50. I also added an Amber Jack and Madai nigiri, which were both perfect with a touch of yuzu kosho. Black cod misoyaki was perfectly cooked and charred for a smokey flavor. Sunomono salad was refreshingly tangy and the shishamo fish was well fried and seasoned. I want to go back for the nabe dishes and steamed rice pots. Amazing food and service 5/5 stars.“

“I visited this location recently and was warmly welcomed as soon as I walked in. Anissa assisted me, and she was incredibly kind and helpful. It was my first time ordering here, and she took the time to explain everything clearly and offered fantastic recommendations. Her genuine care and attentiveness made me feel truly valued. The food was excellent, and the place was spotless. Highly recommend!“

“This was my first time dining at this restaurant. First, we asked for water, but they only served in Kirkland water bottles. Second, we ordered 2 bento boxes and sushi rolls 2nd one 50% off. Finally, the food was great, but service was not up to par. Overall, we will give them another chance to redeem their service when we come
back.“

“Food is fresh and prepared quickly. Great beverage selection too!“

“Tozai is a lovely neighborhood Japanese supermarket. The store may be small, but they carry everything from your essentials for cooking (soy sauce, mirin, soba dipping sauce etc), soba/Udon (both packaged and frozen - tip, get frozen udon not packaged for the best taste, it will taste like what you get at restaurants), to ready-to-eat meals (onigiri, Japanese chicken (karaage), rolls, sushi and sashimi). Small selection of veggies and fruits. I always go to Tozai for routine Japanese grocery items and find that it suits my need 99% of the time. Sure, once or twice a year I go to Tokyo Central or Mitsuwa in Downtown to go crazy at the snack selection, but besides those rare times, Tozai is my place.“

“Good vibes... great time!“

“This is the best sushi place I go Pretty much 3 to 4 times a week Such great fresh sushi and great service“

“Best sushi restaurant in town , always fresh sushi unlike some all you can eat sushi everything is warm and 🤮 , I use to tell my wife you can’t have sushi without a beer lol but this place made it work with or without it’s delicious highly recommend it .“

“Our favorite spot, our go to for sushi“

“Yummy sushi! It is pricey though. You get what you pay for!“

“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!)“

“I recently visited Haru Sushi, a to-go sushi spot that offers an exceptional experience in both taste and value for money. I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars.The most compelling aspect of Haru Sushi is its remarkable value for the quality of taste. The sushi, made with fresh ingredients and the craftsmanship of seasoned sushi chefs, melts delightfully in your mouth, providing a joyful experience with every bite. The ability to enjoy various kinds of sushi at a reasonable price was particularly satisfying for me, someone who prioritizes good value.However, my nearly perfect experience at Haru Sushi came with a slight inconvenience. The establishment only accepts cash and not credit cards. In today's society, where digital payments have become the norm, the need to prepare cash in advance could be seen as a minor nuisance. Nevertheless, this small inconvenience is easily outweighed by the exceptional taste and value offered by Haru Sushi.In conclusion, Haru Sushi stands out as a to-go sushi spot for its excellent taste and value for money. While the inability to use credit cards is a downside, the quality and price certainly make up for it. I am fully inclined to revisit Haru Sushi whenever the opportunity arises. I highly recommend Haru Sushi to anyone looking to enjoy delicious sushi at a reasonable price.“

“We left raging waters and wanted sushi. This place was close by and there was no wait for a party of 7 on a Saturday. They seem to do a lot of to go orders and delivery. The food was very good and the service was on point. Highly recommend.“

“To over priced.“

“We're SFV Kopan regulars, and when the opportunity arose to try an SGV Kopan, we didn't hesitate.

Same amazing food, great drinks, and superior service - simply new faces and new surroundings.

Thanks for a lovely meal!“

This place is a great choice for ayce sushi. All the fish was high quality and very fresh. The owner was super friendly and accommodating. The store itself is very clean. I'll definitely be back for the AYCE sushi! Check out there new weekly specials! They had 1$ beer when we were there.“
