50 Best Sushi Bars near San Pedro

“We had a really nice experience here! We tried the coconut chicken soup, and it was good, but the spice level was pretty mild. I love spicy food, so I was hoping for more of a kick :(
but it was still flavorful.

The pineapple fried rice and sushi were both yummy .
The waiter was also very friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better.

Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back again☺️“

“So fun! love the HAPPY FISH! Going to see him tonight!“

“been coming here for 23 years! great service and great sushi!“

“Yesterday while working across the street I decided to try this place. Is pretty small with about 8 tables enough for 20 people or more and nough to enjoy breakfast or lunch. Now many people have food to go. Wide variety of options to choose from. I had teriyaki chicken with shrimp . The lady who was there is very friendly and my order came out very fast the price is super reasonable for the size of the meal and most importantly it was really tasty. Definitely have to go again if I'm nearby.“

“After a long drive I was still hungry, sushi was calling. HOW is this the only place open late for sushi in San Pedro!?!Thank goodness they were! Hit the spot.Very fresh and expedient, all the fixin's given in little sealed bags. Decent combos.All ingredients seemed high quality and well prepared. Wide selection.

Parking: Strip mall“

“Probably some of the freshest sushi I’ve ever had. There was a flyer left on a car at the park in Torrance and I was craving sushi so decided to go try it wonderful sushi very good. Customer service very friendly. Definitely going back there for my sushi. they weren’t stingy they hooked it up with a lot of filling . They added a lot of avocado, and I got the California rolls and it had a lot of the crab made perfectly so glad I found a new sushi place.“

“Super cute! The food was fast and fresh for weekday late lunch. Ample spacious seating and friendly staff! I did not try the scallop or watch trio bc I didn't like the teriyaki or mayo/onion on the salmon. I wanted the scallops plain or with the salt sauce, but it wasn't available. But otherwise, the fish were a good temp, well portioned (cut), and delicious. I order various salmon sashimi, nigiri, yellow tail, and tuna dishes.“

“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!“

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

“yummmmm so good. highly recommend“

“Not that I've eaten at a ton of high-end omakase sushi restaurants, but Sushi Sonagi is one of the best omakase restaurants I've had in the world.

Chef Son seems to do a seasonal menu, but sources and prepares fish uniquely that not only tastes absolutely amazing, but also in a way that I didn't taste at several other, Michelin-starred omakase sushi restaurants. For example, I personally do not enjoy the taste of salmon, but the one Chef Son prepared (he described it as a 1 in 1000 salmon) did not have a strong salmon flavor at all, and it ended up being one of my favorite courses out of the whole meal. It should speak volumes of his skill that he could turn one of my least favorite ingredients into a dish I hope I'll be able to eat more of.

While I'm not a big sake person, the waitress (I assume his wife but I don't know for sure) was happy to recommend a sake based on my taste preference and she really nailed it, it was one of the best tasting sakes I've ever had as well.

Chef Son was also very conversational, and as a local South Bay resident he was able to chat with all the customers about a ton of stuff. Mostly food and cooking of course, but also other things as well. It was a much more relaxed and casual setting than other places at the $200+ price point, which I appreciated.

These types of restaurants are usually one and done for me no matter how good they are, but Sushi Sonagi is the first one I'm seriously considering returning to, and sooner rather than later.“

“yummmmm so good. highly recommend“

“美味しゅうございました！“

“We love Yanagi. Fabulous and fresh sushi, great service and there always seems to be a table for us. My tiny humans, age 10 and 7, love their sushi. At Yanagi, they are always well taken care of.“

“This place reminded me of an izakaya in Japan! I had such a great time—the food was delicious, and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The tempura was super crispy and so good! I’d definitely come back the next time I’m in the area.“

“By far the best sushi I’ve ever had! The quality here is unmatched—the sushi is extremely fresh and cannot be beat. I ordered the Rainbow Roll, and it was made to absolute perfection with beautiful presentation and incredible flavor.

Not only was the sushi outstanding, but the Udon noodles were unbeatable—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. This place really delivers on taste, quality, and overall experience.

I will definitely be back in the future. If you’re a sushi lover, Sushi Island is a must-try!“

“good sushi and locally owned“

“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.“

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

“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.“

Their portions are nice too. The staff are friendly and the environment is authentic yet modern. The music is great and not too loud.“

“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.“

“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!“

“We absolutely love Fusion Sushi in Hermosa Beach! The fish is always fresh, tender, and full of flavor, and the sushi is consistently amazing. Suzie’s service is exceptional—she always takes such great care of us and makes us feel genuinely welcome. This restaurant truly feels like home, and we can’t recommend it enough!“

“…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!🥰“

“Great sushi and rolls. Also, do not forget to look at the specials board.“

“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.“

“Great service, Good food. :)“

“My family and I went there for lunch on a Friday. The restaurant was full, and we were seated in a private room where you had to take off your shoes to enter. The service was excellent, and the menu featured unique items at reasonable prices. We will definitely return for more.“

“This is my favorite sushi in LA so far. For those fish-and-rice purists, maybe a bit little untraditional, but I loved every single bite of my meal. My nigiri were all extremely flavorful, and each one had its own special touch that accented the fish, which I appreciate. Their Vegas roll was perfectly cooked and quite filling, which is quite a trick. Wait staff was quick, polite, and friendly, and the atmosphere was great“

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

“When sushi has the correct ingredients, its marvelous. This has the right ingredients, good portions and very elegant flavors, really enjoyed it.

The lady in the front desk is delightful, so customer driven and so happy. I wish there would be more people like her in the world.

Not sure its always, but they have but 2 get 1 free, that also helped.“

“I've tried a bit of sushi in the area and this might be my new favorite.

I've had Waka Sakura in the Tokyo Central Gardena and the BluFish in Torrance. Those have their time and place but if you want high quality fish with a mom and pop feel, this is the spot. It's also been around 22 years at the time of my review!

Everything is a la carte and you know it's a solid place when there's no rolls loaded with crab meat, cream cheese and spicy versions of everything (aka when they try to get rid of past fish).

First I got salmon, fatty tuna and Japanese mackerel. Delightful all around (but I'd skip the salmon to have more of the other two). This cost $7-9/each fish and they come with two pieces per order.

Next - sea eel tempura ($12). A simple crispy treat and a change up from the usual shrimp or vegetable tempura. I probably wouldn't get again but it was nice to try!

The steamed egg custard is the cutest little dollop of sunshine. I would end or start the meal with it since it's a nice palate cleanser ($6). It comes hot. Be careful #experience

My last round of fish was seabream (my first time and it was sooo soft/buttery), Spanish mackarel, and sea eel. Like the other round $7-9 each for an order of two. I liked the saltiness of the Japanese mackarel better personally.

Great meal and I'm already making mental notes for things I want to try next time.“

“Fresh sashimi and nigiri with good selection of sake and beer“

“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 very quick and considerate. We ordered the 911 (never forget), KFC, dragon, volcano, and avocado eel rolls among others. We also had the tempura ice cream. All the food was good and portions were good. My favorite roll was the KFC though the volcano roll was a close second.

Overall a great experience! Would definitely recommend to any sushi enjoyers!“

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

“Again and Again....5 Star Product and Service. This place is a great American local favorite! The Food and Presentation is delicate and mouth watering. Customers can comfortably talk to their Date or Friends with the serene ambience. Free parking and a very welcoming staff. Tell the chef, Lola sent you!“

“Went to Yamashiro for the first time today! I have to say this is probably one of the best sushi places I have ever been to. The fried oysters were delicious! We ordered three different rolls and all of them were just beautiful from a presentation and artistry perspective, but tasting them was even better! The volcano roll was served on grapefruit slices, which made them very colorful and the scallops were cooked perfectly. The Yamashara roll was not only beautiful but it's the first time I have ever had mango with my sushi rolls and it actually added a really nice dimension of tropical fruit to already super fresh tasting tuna and avocado. The crispy roll had fried onions that were somehow not greasy, which was surprising. I'm wondering if they were air fried? But really great addition to texture for the rolls. We also had the yellowtail collar, which was cooked flawlessly. Oftentimes, yellowtail collar can you overcooked so part of it can be fairly dry. This caller was moist all the way around, perfect pockets of fish fat, and a very light unami salty flavor. The last thing we had, which I think was very fortunate because they don't always have it, was the Japanese tuna Ono which was cooked in a wonderful miso sauce.

I know I keep going on about this spot, but these rules were truly unique and I eat a lot of sushi, lol! Did I mention that we had a wonderful server, which I didn't get her name, but she's a Japanese woman that may have been the owner. I'm not sure, but her spirit was so respectful and refreshing and we loved her kindness and attentiveness. Really great service! I can't wait to go here again next time I visit the Redondo Beach area!!!“

“Wonderful! Came in as they unlocked the door and they were so nice about still sitting us and walking us through the ayce we ordered on a tablet and got our own water and miss soup at the self serve and when we came back they had appetizers ready everything was above my expectations and I highly suggest the soft shell crab but please leave some for others so they dont put a limit on it its so very delicious I only had one roll that was not my favorite but I can see how that would be someone elses top choice this was a definite hidden gem hole in the wall it looks so unassuming outside and its so very nice inside and the service was fast nice and efficient 2 other tables came ate and left before my ayce was over and the server handled it all fast as possible and with a smile I will be back for life.“

“The service was really good and fast. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The food tasted great and the portions were worth the price. Overall, it was a nice experience with good food at a decent price. I would definitely come back again.“

“They offer a wide variety of dishes, ranging from traditional Chinese cuisine to creative Western cuisine, and there are many surprising combinations. In addition, the restaurant pays attention to the selection of raw materials and the innovation of cooking techniques to ensure that each dish can bring you the most extreme taste experience“

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

“Food 🍱 so good 😊“

“This place deserves to be on every foodie’s checklist. A must-eat in Redondo Beach!“

“Have eaten here about 10 times . This restaurant doesn’t disappoint. I’ve tried all there’s sushi roll which are always fresh and delicious.“
