Great place if you like sushi. The sushi is really fresh. The toro melts in your mouth. The Bento box was average, the potatoes were a weird addition to the bento box and the tonkatsu was okay. The place is a little small so it may be hard to get setting as well, but went a little after peak lunch time and got a table no problem. I thought this place may be noisy with its location, but was pleasantly surprised as it was pretty quiet inside and easy to have a conversation.

Very average experience. Chirashi bowl looked more like a scraps bowl. Did not carry basic condiments expected in a japanese restaurant.

We had not much of a wait at dinner time. The broth is very very good for their soups. In traditional fashion the meat portion is tasty but small. They were nice and hospitable.the soft shell crab was very good. The pricing was a bit up there for what we think we got.

Good food, clean restaurant, the Hispanic servers are friendly but not the Japanese sushi chefs at the sushi bar they tend to favor locals and can be rude and cocky.

Food was authentic and very delicious. Only complaint was they had run out of my favorite appetizer, Hamachi kama, but they had plenty of other things to offer. Service e was good, and i usually come here whenever I visit Little Tokyo.

It’s a nice restaurant at the end of the village in Little Tokyo. It’s a lot bigger on the inside than it seems. We went on a very busy day for lunch, when I signed in to the waitlist, we were about 10th on the list, but wait less than 30 mins. Parking is all over the place in Little Tokyo, but it’s as expected, though they do 2hr validation if you parked in the village.
Oomasa has a good mix of Japanese dishes for everyone at a variety of price points, generally on the higher end though. I enjoyed their bento boxes. There’s a variety of them to choose from and they’re well balanced. All come with rice and miso soup. Portions themselves, like most Japanese restaurants are on the smaller side, but it’s enough to fill you up.
We got the ika geso age since it’s normally one of our favorites appetizers at a Japanese restaurant. Crispy and well seasoned. I wish there was more of it. You don’t even need to use the accompanying chipotle mayo sauce, but it’s a welcomed addition
We got the chicken teriyaki and sashimi bento as well as the oomasa special bento box. I really enjoyed their sashimi, all the fish was portioned well, fresh, and delicious.
The teriyaki was a low point. It wasn’t bad by any means, but I wanted it to be crispier. I would recommend getting sauce on the side since it’s heavily layered in it.
Green tea is from a can, not housemade. Beer is on draft.
Service is excellent. Staff is friendly and helpful. They’ll check on you at appropriate times. Service was fast, we didn’t have to wait long for anything.

It's decent. The karaage wasn't seasoned. The sushi hand roll set could have been more crisp but the fish was fresh. Unlimited free hot tea is pleasant

Decided to check out OOmasa, even though it is in the tourist trap shopping area of Little Tokyo. I ordered the Shrimp Tempura and Sashimi combo to do a litmus test of how good the food is here. The Sashimi had 2 pieces each of Blue Fin Tuna, Yellow Fin Tuna and Salmon. The Salmon was good, the Blue Fin and Yellow Fin tuna were both lousy. Shrimp Tempura was good. Service was decent. Will not return to OOmasa
