Miyabi Uni is a Japanese restaurant in the Torrance area best known for serving fresh sea urchin (aka “uni”) dishes. Servers are not the friendliest type, but they are not hostile either. Set lunch is of good quality. Highly recommend the super fresh Kumiai Oysters from Baja California, and the sea urchin pastas “Uni Aglio e Olio” and “Miyabi Uni Original”.

Kumamoto and Kusshi oysters were amazing. Definitely started with dozen orders of them, raw and fresh. The donburi bowls are decent value. Got the large Miyabi Kaisen and ate to our hearts content. We were not as impressed by the uni but heard so much about the uni pasta so got it for the table to share. The prices for the donburi is worth it and their nigiris was decently good, meaning doesn't wow you but the quality is fresh and they know how to make the sushi rice (a lot of places do not get the rice right and the air ratio right especially in nigiris). The rolls were basic. Definitely will come back for fresh oysters and the donburis.
The atmosphere was okay. Don't know if they are in a middle of a revamp. Definitely should look into utilizing space better, especially around the sushi bar and the bar area.
The service was okay. There seems to be some anxiousness and confusions between the servers, but they were nice. We knew what we wanted, so don't know how knowledgeable the servers are on the menu.
All in all, it was an enjoyable neighborhood experience.

This is the worst resturant in terms of service wise. The food was so later than other table eve i came ealier than others. The mgr said we did our best. I don't know the mgr's mindset toward the service quality. I highly recommend not to go this place.

While my anticipation was high, the restaurant fell slightly short of my expectations. The sashimi, though generous in portion size and texture, didn’t quite match the anticipated quality. I noticed an excess of fishy odors permeating both the dish and the miso soup, which may have been exacerbated by the late-night dining hour. However, the service was commendable, with staff displaying impressive knowledge of the menu items they served.

If you love uni as much as I do, this is a must visit! I had a hard time picking from the various uni dishes, but LOVED the ones I picked. Will be coming back to try some of the others soon!
This place is such a hidden gem! In a cute little shopping center you can barely see off the main road that I've passed a million times and never knew was there. Some of the best, freshest, most glorious sushi and uni dishes I've ever had! Seriously try this place immediately! Beautiful interior and great service, but the food was the star!

Honestly, it's no big deal. The idea was to use sea urchin.

The food was fantastic. I ordered the chef's sushi plate. It included so many things to try. I had the best salmon and the best uni I've ever tried.

The food here is great! My mother said it reminded her of her time living in Japan. The warm and attentive service and delicious food made this restaurant one of the happiest things about our vacation in LA. The only drawback is that there are always little bugs flying around and I keep waving my hands to avoid them landing on my food.
