Really wanted to like this place but I just don’t know. Walked away feeling pretty unsatisfied.
Got a bento box. Tempura was quite good but the teriyaki beef was just awful. It looked as sad as it tasted… lol. The sushi rolls my friend ordered looked very small. Just didn’t feel like we were getting any value for our money.
The owner/waitress seemed pretty nice at first but she was actually low key kind of aggressive? I don’t know.
Atmosphere was eclectic and cute. Just a little time worn and bit grimy around the edges. Extremely quiet though…made it feel awkward to chat with my party.

It took an hour to get there by Uber from Koreatown in LA. I had a delicious meal, chatted with the owner and his wife, and was even treated to coffee... It was a fun day.

TERRIBLE! The plates were dirty, and the windows were full of bugs. The table was sticky and wobbly. Service, I can say the old couple host this restaurant, no service and kind of rude. Miso soup was salty. The food I didn’t want to taste when I saw the bugs.

Long time family owned restaurant. Our visit was early on a Saturday before lunch crowd. The atmosphere and decor were nice with good amount of vegetation and patio seating. I ordered a unagi bowl it was enough food but they really skimped on the eel. Five thinly sliced eel to cover the rice does not justify for full price unagi bowl. I am disappointed.

Not good Japanese food. The tempura was hard and thick. Service not that great either. The water tasted like chlorine. I make better miso soup at home. No A/C, and expensive for what you get!

Hi again to all you gastronomic foodies. Today's food adventure took us to Aoki sushi in La Verne California. If you are in the area please give them a try. The food was very good and fresh. You will notice right away as you walk in, that the atmosphere is rustic but inviting. The service was warm prompt and friendly and the food was very good, the sushi was very battery and succulent. We shared a bento box and a rainbow roll for our lunch, it was so good. Not only were we very happy with the quality but there was plenty of food to fill both of us up. Remember my friends as always, to stay happy, be mindful and be the best you. " One great meal can change the world" so let's start changing the world.

The pictures from online are very deceiving, order 2 bento boxes, 1 miso soup and the deep fried crab which can out to $56. I ordered over the phone and told the lady I'll eat there but she packed it up & she said to eat it outside. Seeing the food in person I wasn't impressed, super small portion and looked like there was no effort into making our food. Definitely not gonna have a 2nd visit here.
May many blessings be with youThis proves that luck goes around and around.

This was my sister and her friends experience today, keep in mind theres 5 people ages 16-17:The lady made my friend cry by demanding my friend to put away the Mexican food she brought in order not to feel left out and proceeds to aggressively pay my friend on the shoulder 3 times, we all just looked in shock because we don’t know this lady that’s touching our friend.It took 20 minutes for 2 lemonades and a sprite to come out then another additional 10 minutes for everyone’s food to come out (mins you we all ordered at the same time). Mind you we waited 30 minutes in total when the shop wasn’t even occupied. We also watched the chef take breaks amidst making our order. We proceeded to go outside because our friend was crying, due to the rude attitude from the lady, so she wasn’t embarrassed by the people coming in.When it was time to pay we all decided not to tip because of her rude attitude. When my first friend went up to pay she was confronting her as to why she didn’t tip her and demanded my friend to tip her. My second friend paid for her meal and demanded a tip but didn’t receive it. When I went to pay she asked if I wasted my change back ($0.03) and I declined because if I said yes it’ll have led to another issue. When I told her she could keep it she stormed off, after that we left without finishing what we paid forAdditionally, the size of the Sushi California rolls were the equivalent size of a quarter which is completely unfair when you see the cost of it.Summary of the text: The lady was extremely hostile to me and my friends and demanded a tip. Horrible customer service.
Parking: Lots of parking at this restaurant.
Kid-friendliness: If I could rate 0 stars I would rate 0 due to the rude demeanor of the female server.
