50 Best Sushi Bars near Paramount

“This is my new GOTO sushi spot!!!
The atmosphere in here is beautiful.
The theme of the restaurant is 10/10 what I would expect! Nothing boring or plain like sugar fish.
You’re greeted by the sushi chefs when you come in- very sweet of them.
They’re actually Asian chefs- which I appreciate.
Came in for a walk in- which they accept. Around 8 pm and was seated immediately.

I ordered the baked salmon roll (my favorite)
Tsunami roll, was good just too many flavors- I still enjoyed it though. 8/10
Dragon roll- my second favorite 10/10
I went with my date and we got full! Payed around 46$ very reasonable price 10/10!

Will be returning!

Parking: Lots of parking at the plaza“

“The XLB is ok and the flavorful dipping sauce adds to the juiciness. Smoothies with or without boba are good and sweetness can be adjusted. I find the matcha green tea has a hint of chocolate flavor everytime I order one. The rolls are ok but the runny fluorescent green wasabi is never ok. The chicken bento #1 is my usual and the California roll is made with sushi rice. The chicken is chopped up in small bite sizes and may contain gristle. If you don't like a lot of teriyaki sauce poured over the chicken and rice, let them know to go easy or ask for a container on the side. Ramen bowls are great in the winter. Lots of other tasty menu items to choose from. The staff is friendly and efficient.

Parking: Shared parking lot can get scarce depending on the time of day.“

“This is my first time here recommended by a friend it's only to go orders they have no seating on the inside but the restaurant in front they say hold some menu items from there and you can sit down and eat and use their restrooms. For California roll and calamari roll it took only about 30 minutes. They were extremely busy customer service was good. FYI, don't forget to mention if you enjoy chopsticks because you'll be disappointed that all they supply is forks in the closed bag they give you. Will come back if in the area again.“

“The food is amazing and good service“

“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.“

“What a GREAT dinner! Met friends here on a late Friday night and they fit us in. The sushi was fresh and so tasty, definitely the best I’ve had in a LONG time. The drinks were amazing, try a version of their old fashioned but so many different drinks to choose from. Our server Christine was so attentive & sweet. We felt the service was 10/10! I recommend the wagyu dumplings and Geisha roll!“

“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.“

Service was extremely helpful and excellent. The food was fresh and delicious ? I couldn't eat as hardly as much as I thought I would. Mimi is gonna love it ??“

“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�“

“Super delicious, and fresh, the staff is so friendly family owned business. The 1st time we went they gave us a complimentary dessert for being our 1st time. We have now been there a few times and always the same friendly service and delicious food. One of our favorites spots to go now.“

P.S. The blue crab rolls are a must.“

“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.“

“Ok bar. Cut off drinks at like 9pm. A guy was trying to buy me a drink, bartender wouldn't let him for some reason. Hmmm. Trivia game on Wednesday night, fun but too hard of questions. Good , actually very bomb food. The more I come here the more I like it.“

“Muy rico, excelente Servicio y muy amables“

“Kikyo Sushi and Sake Bar is a great place to eat some great food. Their handrolled sushi rolls are lit!

We had a California Roll and a rock shrimp roll, and they were perfectly delicious. The rice was plump, with a slight bite with the perfect amount of filling.

A must try is their spicy garlic edamame. Man, they are so flavorful with the right spiciness. You'll be asking for seconds.

The reason for a 4 rating is that the bulgogi beef was a bit dry. It fell a little short in flavor and its traditional sweetness.

They have a great 5 dollar "thirst-quenching" draft beer that goes perfectly with your meal of choice.

Will I be back...YES! In a heartbeat and you should too, when you're in the area.“

“Highly recommend! Great for the whole family. The server was super nice and the food was delicious! We ordered the burrito way and the baked Alaska. Excellent. The fish melted in the mouth and the sauces were yummy. Great presentation too. The kids had tamago. They always like the sweet egg sushi.

Kid-friendliness: I always see family with kids here. And my kids eat their food. All good.“

“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!“

“Fantastic traditional Japanese (as in not Korean, not American style).

Omakase was perfect & very fairly priced. Fish quality was over the top orgasmic good.

We also had the baby octopus salad photo attached that was absolutely fantastic tender and extremely tasty.

In short extremely glad we finally tried this place. Won’t be the last time for sure.“

“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.“

“…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!🥰“

“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!“

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

“I have been going to Mamma's sushi for years. Before the Shabu Shabu next door. I have always enjoyed the food, service and the atmosphere. It seems like they get better in each category over the years. Recently, I have noticed that while other places have made Sushi almost unaffordable, Mamma's sushi saves the day with all their deals. Lunch specials, dinner specials it seems like they have something for every time slot of the day.

Savings! Savings and taste? It is now my favorite sushi spot. It does not hurt the bank and I love the customer service. They are busy often but I feel that they still manage to do an excellent job all around. Keep it up Mamma's and see you soon!“

“Great sushi, one of our regular spots“

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

“The best sushi experience!“

“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.“

“Really great Japanese restaurant. Miso soup is legit - brothy with lots of adds with seaweed, green onion and tofu. Super flavorful. Green tea is steep yourself in suoer hot water for the right depth of tea, and truly great flavor. Sushi (spicy tuna) was delish. So glad I took my car in for servicing down the street and needed a lunch place while I waited!“

“Sushi rolls are of excellent quality here. I love how fresh they taste and I also appreciate the variety they have. Staff is very friendly and prompt on our orders. The only issue is that their teriyaki chicken has been really dry lately.“

“Always great food and service. Come here several times a month and always mouth watering delicious.“

“Tried their tempura California rolls and tempura vegetables. They were very good and big pieces. Ended up buying more to go and a chicken bento box which was very filling and good portions.Only minus was the servers were full blasting music way too loud and not fitting for the restaurant.“

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

“I'd give food a 5 but the way they made the ceviche is like tomato and onion based, like I get it suppse to carry tomato's and onion but for it to be MOSTLY that and not the ceviche is crazy!! It was delicious though. Everything was good except the sushi tempura Cali roll, they make their own sushi sauces but eel sauce is DEFINITELY needed. Maybe I got the wrong sushi since they're lots of different ones. The service when I got there. I almost left because it took awhile to get greeted, the were staff passing me and didn't acknowledge me, I thoguht that was rude. Acknowledgement is VERY important. I think the manager or the owner kept passing by and had the meanest, bitter face and idk but I think that if you're a manager or the owner you should be friendly and nice and give acknowledgement. The food was delicious though.“

“Great service, Good food. :)“

“Great food n service 🍣🍣🍣🖤“

“The selection of fresh fish and unique rolls at reasonable prices is impressive. Having visited before the ownership change, I can truly appreciate how much the quality of every dish has improved. The upgrades are noticeable and enhance the overall dining experience!“

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.“

“The omakase was superb at 'Omakase by FIAB'. The chef's selection consisted of seventeen (17) plates, which were all delectable paired with good service. The server provided a narrative for each plate. The total time for this great selected omakase was 1.5 hours. The ambiance was lively, and the servers were polite, friendly, and prompt. It's definitely a recommended restaurant!“

“Everything it’s good there“

“This place is definitely worth trying. Everything is great, from the quick service to the atmosphere and prices. It isn’t cheap but reasonably priced. The food is amazing. We had sushi and tuna sashimi. Forgot to take a picture of the sashimi but trust me it was delicious. Melted in my mouth.

Parking: Plenty of free parking.“

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

“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.“

“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. The owner is always looking out for the Customer I highly recommend Tokyo Teriaki & sushi go check it out it's really good.“
