“I’ve been coming to sushi rolland for a while now, and I’d say, I’m pretty satisfied! I’ve been impressed by the freshness of the their fish, especially their salmon. I LOVE salmon, and their salmon is buttery and very good quality. For their price and quality, I’d say it’s definitely worth it. I’ve tried their salmon delight, crunch roll, dragon roll, blossom roll, salmon avocado combo, combo an and combo c. I tried out their new menu today, the salmon crunch, and I really liked it (apologies for the half eaten picture). Might be my new go to menu item. I really the fried onions on there. I always like getting their miso soup, such a good combination with the sushi. Highly recommend their combo plate, especially combo A!“

“Good food, portions & service...“

“Solid ramen, sushi and other dishes. Good portions as well. Service was efficient though a bit impersonal...but as long as my water is getting refilled before having to ask, etc. I can do without friendliness. I'm 99% positive my mom and I had been to the Montrose location a few years back and had a very positive experience as well. Definitely would go back to either location. We went on Saturday of Mother's Day weekend for a later lunch with a group of 6 and there was no wait.“

“Best teriyaki chicken“

“Literally the best Japanese Curry House in all of the United States. Doesn't cost a fortune, service is amazing, it's Japanese-American but you feel like you're getting the same service you would get in Japan and a kitchen staff are very attentive and communicative. I had no idea this was here literally my whole adult life and now I go weekly.“

“Really great poke with a good selection of protein, base and toppings. The fish was fresh and seasoned well, vegetable toppings were plentiful along with seaweed and masago. They have a variety of excellent sauces as well. The large poke was enough for two people with an av“

“I recently tried Katsu Jin and was really impressed. The cheese katsu was super aesthetic when it came out—crispy on the outside with that perfect cheesy pull, and just as good as it looked.

The tempura had an ideal crunch—light, not greasy, and fried perfectly. You can tell they pay attention to the details.

I also ordered the soba noodles, and they were spot on. The texture was perfect, and the soba dipping sauce was delicious—light, refreshing, and balanced everything really well.

Overall, a great spot if you’re craving quality Japanese comfort food with solid execution across the board.“

“Yes. Very nice servers etc. clean. Yummy food. Usually get beef teriyaki with tempura. Good batter on tempura snd lots of food“

“The place is like a hole in the wall (small place) the food is good and the price is reasonable. I ordered the teriyaki chicken bento. Comes with 4 pieces of California rolls, salad, tempura, teriyaki chicken, rice and a bowl of miso soup.“

“Every dish was delectable, and great service! We all had a fantastic time there! Definitely will be back, and for celebrations.“

“Umebana has amazing food! I'm currently pregnant and I have been looking all over for a sushi place to make food accommodations for me when I have my cravings. Umebana is always so kind to me, the atmosphere is clean and enjoyable, and the food is always made exactly how I requested it, so delicious! Thank you for taking such great care of me“

“One of the freshest—if not the best—sushi marketplaces in town! Yama Sushi Marketplace is a small shop that is always packed with locals looking to satisfy their sushi cravings, and after my first visit, I can definitely see why.

The store offers an impressive selection of Japanese goodies, including ramen, condiments, fresh sashimi, and a wide variety of sushi rolls. There are so many options and combinations to choose from. If you are looking for sashimi, head to the back of the store where they have conveniently packaged fish sold by the pound, and they will happily slice it for you. Or, if you are in a hurry, you can grab their freshly made sushi rolls from the refrigerators.

On my visit, I picked up ahi tuna, salmon, and yellowtail sashimi, along with California rolls and tuna rolls. Every piece of fish was incredibly fresh with a buttery texture and amazing flavor. The quality of the fish and the perfectly seasoned sushi rice were so good that I barely needed any soy sauce or wasabi.

I only recently discovered this hidden gem, but it has already become a place I will be visiting regularly. The sushi is high quality, reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. If you are a sushi lover, Yama Sushi Marketplace is definitely worth checking out!“

“We came during Valentine’s Day and was pleasantly surprised with the experience - from delicious and quite good portion of food to attentiveness in service. Patricio was our server and he was very attentive, checking in on us right after the food were delivered.“

“We were hungry and after checking out the food court decided to find another restaurant, and this is just outside of the mall.
The chefs are cooking the Udon noodles in huge Pots and their style is the subway way 🥪 but noodle style.
We got the traditional beef and beef curry 🍜 with Gyoza.
The Udon was tender and chewy and the broth was not too light but had enough richness to it tastes so good. The curry was good and not too spicy, with the meat just hit the spot.
Plenty of seating inside plus outside seating as well.
Ran very efficiently cause during busy lunch Rush the customers went in n out so plenty seats available.“

“Best Japanese Food in Whittier“

“Sakura Grill is a great spot for fresh, flavorful Japanese-inspired dishes served in a relaxed, casual setting. The menu has a nice variety, and everything comes out well-prepared and consistent. The grilled items are especially satisfying tender, well-seasoned, and cooked just right.

Service is friendly and efficient, and orders are handled quickly whether you’re dining in or taking out. The atmosphere is simple and comfortable, making it easy to enjoy a laid-back meal. Overall, Sakura Grill is a solid go-to for dependable, tasty food with good value.“

“I really enjoyed eating there The food is fantastic The owner is just really a great guy and the staff is very accommodating although our server was a little off that night from what she normally is generally speaking we never have a problem there“

“Always wondered about this restaurant as there's always a line outside the establishment. My wife and I were seated with our friend group pretty quickly, a nice perk to the staff that handed out menus to choose your order to improve efficiency.

I love that the ramen is very customizable, from the amount of salt, oil richness, ingredients mix, sauce, and even noodle style. (Thin/Thick) There's moderate seating inside, some for large groups, duos, and some wall seats as well. It definitely has the vibes for a ramen shop, lights are a bit dimmer inside which highlights the kitchen staff (open kitchen). working on orders.

My wife and I both ordered the Original King Ramen and shared some appetizer (Chicken Karaage) with our group.

Orders came out pretty quickly and the portions are pretty decent size, a bit deceiving I'd say for the size of the bowl you receive.

1. The ramen is very flavorful, can't go wrong with either thin or thick noodles. In my opinion, the chashu is a must because it mixes the broth flavor with the meat, creating the savory flavoring, super yummy. A little side note is that the ramen is priced nicely, however the extra add-ons can accumulate in total.

2. The Chicken Karaage is a classic must try, Japanese styled fried chicken, super crispy coating, very flavorful meat, and bite size. The karaage is marinated very well & comes with some lemons for that sweet flavor if preferred. Highly recommend.

Overall, Ramen Nagi has very delicious ramen and is very much affordable. Huge plus for the ramen being very customizable & even has chefs recommendations for first timers. Only downside is that the shop is not super big, and long lines but it moves moderately fast if you don't mind waiting a bit.“

“I love this place, the family is so incredibly nice.
I usually get a #5 beef/chicken combo, extra veg, teriyaki and curry sauce on the side. It's a lot of food so I try my best to eat half for 2 lunches. Their ice tea is good, most places tend to have a dish rag taste.ive been going there for over 30yrs and it's always the same delicious quality. Unlike fast food chains that charge more and more with quality dropping every year.

Vegetarian options: Good Been burritos and veggie Rice bowls.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Absolutely lovely spot for all kinds of Japanese food. The sushi was fresh and absolutely delicious. The staff were really helpful and sweet, helping us pick menu items and clarifying some things we weren't sure about. Even the bathrooms were lovely.“

“It's pretty dark and loud inside during dinner. Even during the day, it can be loud and you have to speak up to hear across the table. Food is tasty but can come out show during lunch or dinner rush. I like their pass around family style rolls meal option for ordering. It does it a little pricey, but I think the portion and fish-to-rice ratio is great. Definitely take advantage of the happy hour deals!“

“nice little place... friendly staff... good food.“

“Great food and great quality“

“honestly The food is very very good, I rate the his place a 10/10 in food and service. For being a Japanese restaurant this food is very tasty, the only thing is that they will serve your food in to go plates. Understandable, but if you are craving something with a lot of variety very good food, healthy and good in nutrients I have to recommend you this place. Also, if you are on a diet this place have the BEST fresh produce you can imagine so gymbros and gym girls do not miss this place 👍✅“

“I highly recommend getting the premium package and ordering all the premium dishes. Everything is so fresh and tasty—definitely worth the upgrade. After that, you can order the regular sushi you like. They accept both credit cards and cash, and there’s a restroom available. It can get busy on weekends, so see if you can make a reservation.“

“Friendly waters and comfortable setting“

“Conveniently located nearby!!“

“Highly commendable service and absolutely stunning set menu! we went here for dinner last night for our Halloween date night! Their wagyu cuts are 100% top-grade and not just random "wagyu" that are below the marks. We tried their A5 and M9 meats, not to mention their salmon carpaccio that is to die for. Their sides are absolutely delicious and smart, one great example is their fried pork buns that is like a spin on soup dumplings. To top it off, you get premium ice cream in the end. Their salad is so good with yuzu and smokey salt, plus you get a chili mix too. They serve the meats fast plus your tablet menu is in front of you so you don't have to keep calling the staff to refill. I give them 9 stars! 🌟 🐄 🥩“

“The service, the food, the environment and the kindness and efficiency of our server tonight! 😋👍“

“Shwe Taung Rice Bowl and Burmese Restaurant was a very pleasant surprise. Neither my wife nor I had ever eaten Burmese food, so we didn’t know what to expect. The restraint is small and hidden in a tiny strip mall. There is a small parking lot, but ample street parking.

Shwe Taung’s menu is extensive and full of exotic and enticing dishes. We ordered Coconut Chicken Khao Soi, Shan Noodles, and Mixed Tempura Fries. Each dish was wonderful. They all had unique mixtures of spices — flavorful but not too hot. Both noodle dishes were unlike anything we’ve ever encountered, and it will be difficult not to order the same things when we return. Still, the menu contains many other tempting choices.

The service was friendly and professional. Our waiter was extremely helpful to two Burmese food neophytes.

We will certainly return in the near future. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and try Shwe Taung.“

“Rice and Nori is truly a gem of a spot! Staff are always friendly with their counter service and food wait times can vary, but is worth the wait. They have indoor and outdoor seating to enjoy. They have a wide variety of rice balls and handrolls. I have tried almost all the fillings and you honestly cannot go wrong with any of them!“

“Absolutely love Nabemono Shabu Shabu. We were finally able to enjoy a dine in experience, and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful space and great service. I highly recommend their sukiyaki and spicy creamy pork bone broth. Absolutely superb with their ramen, fresh veggies and sauces (ponzu and sesame). Can’t wait to go back to enjoy their cold noodles! Yum!“

“The Prime all you can eat was delicious. The staff were very nice and checked on me often. I will be back probably monthly.

Edit: Its still good here, so I will keep coming back. I came in at 12:00pm on Sunday, so there was no wait.“

“My parents have been here before and said their food was good. We checked them out tonight and their food isn’t just good, it’s delicious!! We ordered 4 different bento boxes and two bowls, so fresh and tasty. I love supporting small businesses! Do yourself a favor and give them a try! We loved the casual vibe and even the little claw machine!“

“My husband and I moved to Minnesota but every time we are back in LA visiting family, we ALWAYS stop by Mui Sushi. I love their crabmeat. I’m a big sushi lover and crabmeat is always a hit or miss for me. I recommend the snowcone roll if you like crabmeat 👍“
