“I just randomly stopped in for an Asahi beer.Then I decided to try the RISING SUN ROLL. OMG.super delicious and mouth watering. I'm coming back with my friends“

“This was such an incredible experience, my group sat at the sushi bar and this was all our first times having Omakase. We couldn’t have asked for a better and more delicious experience. The couple that owns this restaurant is so sweet and absolutely incredible with customer service. We felt like we had been coming here for years, and ordered more food at the end of our 12 piece meal bc it was all so delicious and we couldn’t get enough. I think we each got 3 more pieces. I can’t wait to return. This made my husband’s birthday, so very special. Thank you again for such a night to remember. One of the best meals I’ve ever had!!“

“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.“

“Food was fresh and well prepared, the service was quick and very friendly, my server crystal was absolutely wonderful she helped give suggestions that were spot on with what I like and she was very attentive to my time and made sure I had all I needed. The place is really cute and clean. I had a great lunch experience and look forward to my next visit.“

“Fabulous experience. Felt like we had 4 people attending to us at all times while we were focused on the coursed meal. 2 hours flew by with phenomenal pairings, including combinations we haven't seen before. We recently attended the Omakase at the Ritz in Laguna Niguel; Momoyama was better... just need to forget that you're in a strip mall.“

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

“What a surprise! The scallop was out of this world! This was such a great surprise! I went in with zero expectations, and, to be honest, enjoyed every bite. I doubled up on the scallop roll because it was unexpectedly the best I have had.“

“Awesome Sushi rolls and the best sashimi!! Always happy to see you and always smiling!“

“The best sushi experience!“

“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.“

“el sushi es bueno la comida de Alex es asquerosa“

“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.“

“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�“

“Everything was excellent! Service was top notch as well.“

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

“Small plates. Nice, cozy vibes. Everything you could ask for in an izakaya. :) My friend and I made reservations in advance and came to the restaurant on a Thursday night, which was decently busy. I really liked the warm lighting and ambiance of the restaurant. Our server, Carolyn, was really nice. She apologized that several of the things we had wanted to order were not on the menu due to popular demand. We ordered a decent spread of food, including salad, sushi, udon, chicken karaage, and bulgogi. Everything was pretty good. The workers wrote my friend's name on a placard on the table and even gave us free vanilla ice cream for his birthday! The total came out to $60 for both of us, with tip. Standard food, nothing spectacular. I'd come back for the good vibes (cool anime wall murals!) and maybe to try some other dishes.“

“First off, their cheap on the a/c. Place was very hot from the sun beating on the glass windows. Speciality rolls we order were very salty. Salmon didnt have a fresh taste or the white lines throughout but the yellowtail was nice and fresh. Staff was fun and gave great service. Room was clean with an authentic atmosphere and added main stream music.“

“My friend Salvador opened a sushi restaurant called Niko Sushi Chefs in La Habra, so I visited with my sister.
Salvador is a sushi chef with over 30 years of experience and is already a well-known sushi chef in North Orange County.
Salvador makes special sushi dishes for his regular customers, and I especially love his ”Salvador Special Roll.“
The Salvador Special Roll, featuring salmon and mango on top of a spicy tuna roll, is simple yet mucho delicioso. It’s been a while since I‘ve had it, but it was still tasty! 😋
I hope Niko Sushi Chefs continues to prosper.“

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

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

“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.“

“Amazing food and quick service. I will be coming back for sure!!“

“A local sushi spot with both counter and table seating. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Portion Size: Be prepared, the sushi and nigiri pieces are large. Because of the size, you don't need to over-order. For two people, 3 rolls (or a small combination of rolls and nigiri) is usually plenty.

Flavor Profile: The sushi is prepared simply with just a bit of wasabi (rolls are similar); nothing is heavily sauced. If you prefer more kick or salt, be prepared to use your soy sauce and extra wasabi.“

“Absolutely love the Beef Tataki and everything else on the menu. Been here many times and never been disappointed“

“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!“

“We were out late with the kids and started searching for ice cream in Anaheim near me, and we are so glad we found this place. It was honestly a great experience from start to finish. The ice cream was delicious. The vanilla was smooth and creamy, and the cookie dough had great flavor with plenty of pieces. You can really tell the quality is there.

The service was excellent. The staff was friendly, and welcoming, which made it even better, especially with kids. The place had a great vibe and did not feel rushed at all. This is definitely a spot we will be coming back to whenever we are craving ice cream in Anaheim. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good ice cream near me.“

“What a wonderful restaurant! The food here is incredible! We especially love the California Rolls and Japanese soda. When they prepare tuna it's quite a show and so much fun! What's best is how kind they are to children. My son has become friends with the owners/ staff over the years, and always leaves with a huge smile on his face. 5 stars!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“K Sushi is a hidden gem. Our server Luke, was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered the Special Roll Tray and the Tempura Ice Cream.

The Special Roll Tray was flavorful and a great portion size for 4 people with moderate appetites. The Tempura Ice Cream was amazing. I loved the contrast between the crispy crunchy exterior and the cold ice cream inside. The pricing was fair and standard. They have korean fushion rolls on the menu. I will be coming back to try those!

The restaurant is small family business tucked in a small plaza. The place was clean and comfortable. It wasn’t too busy during dinner time on a Thursday. The bathrooms were clean which is always appreciated.“

“Sam & his crew are amazing, excellent food , highly recommended“

“EXCELLENT!!! we will definately be back!!“

“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.“

“I always wanted to try this place whenever I came to this mall because it looked really cozy and had an old-school Japanese vibe outside. Finally tried it, but I was a little disappointed. It feels more like a roll-focused spot than a traditional sushi place.

The rolls were okay, and they give free miso soup and a small salad, which was nice!!

I feel like if they cleaned up the decor a bit and put more effort into remodeling, plus added more sushi and sashimi options, this place could be way more popular. It definitely has a lot of potential.“

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

“Hard to pick. menu great! even a half of list! was perfect to show grandson lil by lil different choices with smaller portions. He enjoyed it all. :)“

“Sooo delicious. We ordered the soft shell crab appetizer and it had such a delicate fried flavor. It hit the spot. It paired perfectly with the citrusy dressing in the side salad. We ordered the jalapeño bomb and Jessica roll. They're both shrimp tempura rolls but where the jalapeño bomb was creamy and spicy the Jessica roll tasted bright and fresh. We left full and very satisfied.“

“good sushi and locally owned“

“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.“

“The food was the best Japanese food that I’ve eaten. The Salmon Collar was so delicious as well as the California roll. I’ve also eaten the Bento Box for lunch and dinner which is a really good value and also delicious! My husband and I highly recommend Niya Sushi!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Sushi Koto is always a treat for me. I love to come here for what I feel is the next best thing to eating in Japan. There is always a wait for Sunday brunch, but they do take reservations. Excellent service and friendly staff. This is definitely not your ordinary neighborhood Japanese restaurant. Highly recommend it!“

“This place is one of my all time favorites, I found this place almost 3 years ago. I continue to dine here along with my family. The servers are very polite and always on the go. Huge selection to choose from, made fresh when you order it. Never sitting around like buffets. 👍🏻 Highly recommend this place for the price,flavor and ambiance.“

“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!“

“My husband and I went to Sushiholic on a little date right before Valentine’s Day, and it was wonderful! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cozy, the service was excellent, and the staff were friendly. The restaurant was very clean. Highly recommended!“

“This place is absolutely delicious and really well priced. The owner is the always there cooking and taking care of customers and making sure we are happy with the quality of the food.
