50 Best Sushi Bars near Lomita

“A small hidden gem!!! We were there just last Friday. The service (as always) was wonderful, the food scrumptious and though last Friday we were sat immediately (we just happened to beat the crowd). We have had to wait a few times; and I assure everyone it is worth the wait!“

“I have been enjoying meals at Okane Umi since 2016. They have always been excellent in every category of service. The restaurant has had its share of ups and downs but I am happy with how strongly Okane Umi has powered up its menu and added some wonderfully flavorful genuine Japanese dishes. Im pleased they have reinforced their sushi, sashimi, chirashi offerings - I love this restaurant.“

“The best sushi I had in my entire life.

The baked Salmon Roll is absolutely delicious ?.
After about 10 minutes of waiting this wonder was in front of me ready to be my late lunch (3 PM ish)
Wonderful service as well.

Next time (maybe today) I'll try the Tiger Roll.
Thank you!“

“Great food, like eating in Lima-Peru. Buen sabor al mejor Estilo Peruano.“

“What a delightful SoCal omakase that I think stands out really well both for being fun and delicious.

Sushi Sonagi is located in a strip mall on Artesia Blvd. before you hit the 91 freeway and by the early evening when you arrive, parking seems to be plentiful.

Coming in, I was immediately greeted and given a reserved spot at the intimate sushi bar. The sushi bar itself is really fun and full of small LA-focused delights like a bobblehead of sports stars. And the music played old school 90's and early 00's jams.

Behind the counter is Chef Daniel Son who does a wonderful job guiding the whole journey with a super friendly and laidback attitude. I loved how the ingredients are not only from his travels in Japan but also locally from the Torrance Farmers Market where I go often myself. Also love the presentation from the plates to all of the techniques he uses that you get a first hand look at.

Drink-wise, they have carafes/bottles of sake as well as some beer options. I opted for one of the sake carafes which lasted me throughout the meal. The waitress that was serving the entire seating that night was also super funny and laid back as well along with being super attentive.

As most omakase menus, this one changes every season. Here were some of my personal favorites of our 18 courses:
*Flounder fin: One of the best sushi items we had that night. So buttery and delightful. Loved the explanation and conversations as well around some of the facts and challenges around serving this.
*Hanasaki dolsot bap: Such a clever and delicious take on the dolsot bap. It's presented beautifully with the crab shell and then portioned out to all the patrons. If you wanted extras, the Chef is more than willing to accommodate.
*Miso butter atsuyaki tamago: Loved this extra little oomph to the tamago with the miso butter. Again, just buttery smooth with a hint of sweetness. So good.
*Chawanmushi: His chawanmushi was a great use of local ingredients like the summer corn and ikura. Refreshing and playful.
*Scarlet shrimp: Absolutely delicious and delectable. A bright flavor.

At the end, not only do you get the full menu but a really cute handwritten card that was a really nice touch.

Cheers to Chef Son and his crew for a wonderful and delightful experience.“

“Some of the best food ever!!“

“Excellent, authentic, VERY Japanese sushi. No firecracker shrimp rolls. If you want that kinda thing, go back to Hermosa.“

“We love Sushi Time! It’s one of the best local sushi spots in Torrance. My wife and I will call in for pick up and it’s always so quick. We get the eel avocado roll all the time, easily the best sushi they have. We’ve tried the shrimp tempura too but the eel sauce is good. The wasabi is spicy but could definitely be spicier! All in all, highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for delicious sushi at a good price. Owners are really kind as well and sometimes give special service!!“

“美味しゅうございました！“

“Great creative sushi rolls. Excellent service.“

“So. Much. Food.

Hole in the wall spot with amazing quality and great price. Waitress explained each dish. I’d say the variety was less than other omakase, but the quantity and flavor was spot on. Sake is really cheap too. Definitely coming back.“

“yummmmm so good. highly recommend“

“Great service, friendly staff and the owner, Paul, showed warm hospitality. The prices were great and the quality of the food will definitely have me going 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.“

“Tha beat sushi in town! We have been patronizing Sakae for over 25 yrs and then taste and quality has not changed. I was a teenager at the time and now in my late seventies.Every time we are in town we visit and purchase our sushi. You folks are great!!“

“Excellent Fresh Food and really friendly servers who show interest in you having the best experience possible. Happy 9th year Anniversary!“

“It's my go-to place whenever I visit Torrance. It's a casual comfort place with affordable price. I love their creamy pasta. It's sooo goood!! Not to mention their fresh rolls come with big portion. Friendly & prompt service, clean space, plenty of parking, cozy small business. It's a gem in the neighborhood.“

“…up to date, elegant design. Spacious. Warm atmosphere. And most important- absolutely amazing food, beautifully arranged on the plates. Cheers to your chef! Not every restaurant in NYC can boast of a professional like the one you have!🥰“

“Been coming here for years. I usually get the two item combo. The amount of food you get is filling. Food always tastes fresh. Here are the items I like: teriyaki chicken, tempura, salmon avocado rolls, spicy tuna rolls, and miso soup. I've tried other items and they were all good but I keep coming back to these. The place is clean and the service is friendly. Parking can be challenging during peak hours but I've always managed to find a spot. Give this place a try“

“The service is on point and the food selection is perfect for a variety of hunger levels. From nigiri to udon (curry udon has stellar flavor for vegetarian or non-fish-lover friends), I haven't found a single thing to complain about. I visit LAX every few months and look forward to the next dish I get to try out next.

Vegetarian options: Curry Udon was delicious.“

“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.“

“Since I'm a very picky Japanese food eater, I tend to avoid anything that might be Japanese where it's not 100% Japanese. That said, I do enjoy the Thai food here. It's decent and filling. The staff are polite and I like it because it's in walking distance for me.

I have tried some Japanese-ish food like the lobster rolls or teriyaki chicken. Those dishes weren't bad if you consider them more California Asian cuisine. The prices are what you might expect these days for a spot like this. They do have lunch time specials so I think those are worth making the trip if you're in the area and want some decent Thai etc or something different.“

“My first review! My visit here last night was nothing short of a revelation in the art of sushi dining. Celebrating its 17th year, this gem of a restaurant has not just stood the test of time; it has set the bar for what authentic Japanese cuisine can embody. Though it is not your modern izakaya nor fine-dining luxury, it firmly facets itself as the "OG" restaurant in the diverse Japanese dining scene. Immediately upon entering, I observed details of its classic entity by old decos of art, calligraphy, signs, photos, and handwritten notes. It was an ambiance that exuded warmth. I immediately felt the history and dedication woven into the fabric of this place. The owners have crafted not merely a restaurant but a sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer nuances of Japanese culture and cuisine. I opted for the sushi combo course. Each piece of sushi was a testament to the chef's mastery over his craft, with every ingredient shining through in a delicate balance of flavors and textures with a properly curated course. All the nigiri boasted freshness in a blend of tastes that was above satisfactory by the plate. But what truly sets Sushi Anza apart is the heart and soul poured into every aspect of the dining experience. From the attentive, yet unobtrusive service to the meticulous presentation of the dishes, you can feel the love and dedication that the owners have for their craft. It's this personal touch combined with an "aged" ambience that transforms a meal into an experience. In a world where the genuine essence of Japanese cuisine can sometimes be lost amidst fusion and innovation, Sushi Anza stands as a beacon of tradition and quality. Overall, my first visit here was a nostalgic journey through the very essence of Japanese tradition, guided by the hands of those who know and respect it the most. I cannot recommend Sushi Anza enough and look forward to many more visits. I hope to regain the same authentic warmth, excellence, and quality that hallmarks the culinary gems of Torrance.“

“The staff is very friendly here and the sushi was so fresh and delicious. I ordered 3 salmon rolls that were 4 pieces each and the fish was so rich. I also really loved the extra Hello Panda cookies they threw in which just happened to be my favorite. I will definitely be back for more! They might just be my new favorite sushi spot.“

“Food is amazing! Service is amazing too!“

“Best place in town! Thank you Yoshisan! 💙 he’s BIG DODGER FAN LIKE ME! DODGER MEMORABILIA GALORE IN SMALL RESTAURANT!💙⚾️🤙“

“An amazing "conveyor" belt sushi restaurant with high quality fish and great vibes. I use quotes because the belt is only used to deliver the food to your table as opposed to the rotating dishes. It's located inside of Tokyo central and there's gunna be a long wait for dinner but honestly.... it's such a great market to wander that you'll find the long wait to be fun.

Almost everything we ordered was delicious, mouth watering, and satisfying quality fish. The salmon quality is so butter smooth and I actually recommend the salmon party if that's your favorite type of fish.

Most items are decently priced and you can totally get full off of 30 bucks if you order the lower tier stuff. Service was quick and friendly.

Tip: You don't need to order on the tablet lol it'll get your arm tired from swiping the fixed screen. Just scan the QR code and order through your phone.

“The Omakase, while a little pricey ($62/per person) was awesome. A nice mixture of of sushi that I would not have ordered myself. The service was quite good and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is a little bland, but also on par for local sushi restaurants. I will be back!“

“Service was excellent very friendly and beautiful view. Food was awesome.“

“Great service, Good food. :)“

“Last minute dinner date and needed to find a Japanese sushi restaurant closeby in Torrance that opened past 8pm and found this place through Google Maps. Called them at lunchtime for a reservation which i got and they said that last food orders was 845pm so that was perfect.

Couldnt get the sushi bar but table seating was perfect and intimate. Our server was friendly and we ordered right away. Prices were a little on the high side but its a date so live a little?

Ordered a couple small appetizers and the Sushi Dinner deluxe for myself and the Sushi Omakase for my date that featured speciality fish of the day (chefs choice). Everything was fresh and high quality, delicious and authentic. Stayed still closing time and didnt feel rushed at all.....Thank you for such a nice memorable dinner for the both of us. ??Would recommend if in the area. 5 stars?“

“Great sushi and service. Good happy hour deal. Cute ice cream dessert options. Fills up fast. Line out the door when they open at 5pm but everyone was seated within a couple of minutes.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarians can get avocado roll or vegetable roll, rice and edamame.

Kid-friendliness: It's kind of loud and casual, kids are welcome.“

“Friendly sushi chef and staff Fresh sushi and tasty kitchen food Highly recommend“

“If you are going to eat any sushi in Hermosa or Manhattan Beach it better be Fusion Sushi at Hermosa!!! We get the sushi blossom, yellow tail star roll, and dynamite roll, and ITS THE BEST TRIO EVER. Love the servers and the food is exceptional <3“

“Delicious sushi! Awesome service!“

“I very much enjoy the food and friendly atmosphere at Sushi Bei. Their sashimi and sushi are fresh, and I think the food presentation is amazing. Yellowtail Cheek is large, fatty, and delicious. Their appetizers and rolls are pretty good too!
I like Non Bei next door where I can continue with some drinks and karaoke. They offer a full night of fun!“

“I’m and all my family, lots of my friends are regular customers from the first day this place was open in early 2000.. This is the only place I trust and eat raw fish. Gina, managing this restaurant all these years. She knows every one names, food preferences and always treats us very very friendly!
If you want sushi, this is a right place to go to.“

“Absolutely fabulous experience.

As soon as you walk in, you are met with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere befitting such a nice restaurant. The menu is full of variety, with classic staples like gyoza and tuna rolls while also featuring special dishes, with my personal favorite being the spider rolls, which are absolutely delicious. Service is quite fast and the owner is extremely welcoming to customers. It is clear that the owner really puts their heart into the food and makes it impossible not to enjoy the meals prepared for you.

Absolutely would recommend this establishment to anyone looking for an affordable and enjoyable meal.“

“Alway great fresh sushi with every visit. Happy a polite staff!!“

“Absolutely love this place. The rolls are delicious and the ramen always hits the spot. My favorite sushi spot in the South Bay. The man and woman that run the place are so kind.“

“My family and I stayed at the Crystal casino hotel from my oldest sister's 32nd anniversary. The front desk receptionist Victoria was so lovely she helped my family with whatever we needed help with. She was very pleasant, patient, nice and displayed great customer service skills. We were there for 3 days and each day the continental breakfast was GREAT and had something different to eat each day plus waffles which were DELICIOUS. I would recommend the Crystal casino and hotel because great customer service, cleanliness, and a wonderful continental breakfast.“

“Great food 🍱 and great service!! Really awesome place“

“great food,service and prices“

“Amazing, the only word to describe this teriyaki, is one the best places to experience it from. From being fortunate of growing up near by. You know when you travel to different regions are you tempted to try similar dishes. So far never found anything of the same caliber. Unfortunately, I always crave eating this teriyaki from where ever I might find myself at the moment.“

“Or Friday night sushi place, nice and fresh and quick to prepare. Tasty rolls and nigiri, everything we have had here has been fresh and thoughtfully prepared, admirable for a sushi to go place.Always a pleasure to pick up from this kitchen facing the parking lot in front of the Manhattan village. Not too be missed!“

“This restaurant is clearly one of the most attractive place in the region. Whenever I come to this place I am exceedingly satisfied. They manage their very high standard service and the topmost level of meals they serve. You surely will enjoy this this restaurant. Highly recommended.“

“Service was super fast. Buy one get one sushi rolls applies to all the rolls not just the classic. Yay! The reason I went, it was my first time. Food came out buy the time we sat down at the table. Food was amazing. We were so stuffed went right to sleep when we got home. 😴 😋 😍“

“Great good and friendly staff🎉🎊“

“Food 🍱 so good 😊“

“Hidden jem for lunch specials, I recommend getting one of their take out lunch combos, chicken or salmon teriyaki and tempura combo is my go-to. Comes with the main choice, sticky rice, various tempura vegetables and two tempura shrimp, tempura dipping sauce, miso soup, and a side salad, all for like $13, and it's very fresh and delicious! Closed Mondays though.“
