“I always stop here on roadtrips and it’s a solid place for affordable, healthy food. The chicken salad is my go-to and it’s always fresh with plenty of chicken. The facilities are also very clean and the staff is friendly - highly recommend!“

“The best yellow tail Nelly sushi ever“

“Nice and great services, very good options and super fun cooking.“

“Walked in and was immediately greeted, the food came out pretty quick and was so delicious and flavorful. I got some extra teriyaki sauce and some chili sauce. The only negative thing I would have to say is that the floors looked pretty dirty, but I did show up about an hour before they close. When I was leaving they acknowledged me and said "have a blessed day" ? I guess it's the little things for me.“

“I’ve been to plenty of sushi restaurants in LA, but this cozy neighborhood spot stands out in all the right ways. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with smiles and an atmosphere that feels both relaxed and welcoming !

The sushi ? Fresh. Impeccably sliced. Thoughtfully presented and just perfection !

The staff is always welcoming and friendly, even though they are always super busy. It’s the kind of place you find yourself returning to again and again ! A perfect neighborhood treasure that deserves all the love and support.

Highly recommended. Five+++++++ stars all the way !“

“Me and my friends came here because we had heard the noodles were good. I ordered the Beef Yakisoba and it was among the best I’ve ever eaten. My friends all got ramen, and the chicken in one of them was cooked really well. The sushi was also good (got the California and Fried California roll), I feel as though they were the lowest points of the meal. All in all, I’d definitely love to come back again.“

“Stopped here a couple of times, and both times it was very good! On this occasion we got the eel bento and the chicken katsu curry. Both dishes came with very generous portions! The prices are amazing! I would definitely recommend coming by for a bite.“

“My kids love ramen so we came by to check it out. They had so much fun picking thier packet from the wall, cooking it and adding the toppings. The staff was so friendly and accommodating!

The kids picked a mild ramen and it was perfectly spicy. We got a couple sushi rolls that were also delicious. We will definitely be back!“

“DELICIOUS! I got the black garlic tonkotsu and the broth was incredible. Fried chicken appetizer was cooked perfectly in texture and flavor, and sushi was so good we didn't even dip it in sauce! Editing to add, service was FAST! We will definitely be returning.“

“Walked into the mall wanting to eat. Suki Hana caught my eye and I was helped by an employee named Shantell. She gave me recommendations on what to get and was absolutely helpful. The food was great, and their work area was clean. Shantell helped me out a lot and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the great service & food!“

“Yummmmmmy!!!! Great sushi and friendly staff. It’s a little pricey but great quality so it’s worth it =}“

“fast and excellent service 👌“

“I was pleasantly supprised by this place. I came in here when i was passing through the area and was feeling a little hungry. While there appeared to be other food options in the area, I decided to give this place a try.I ordered their beef dish with noodles. It was a little pricey and they did charge me a fee for using my card. But when the food finally came, it was really good. Very flavorful and quite a big portion. The meat wasn't all gnarly either, which is always a concern when ordering beef.One thing to keep in mind is that their menu in not that big.They did say that they've been open for about 4 months or so. I hope that this place makes it. There were not a lot of customers in here when I visited. They do seem to be more of a carryout type place though. And I also visited in the morning when it first opened.Overall, this place does have a few minor flaws, but the food is good quality and the portions are pretty large.“

“Great atmosphere - fresh sushi - amazing service . For sure best sushi in SCV! Ranking up with sushi from Hawaii !!“

“My husband was craving Teppanyaki so we came to Yamato on a Saturday night and it was pretty crowded but since we really just wanted the food and didn’t necessarily want to see the “show” we were seated pretty quickly at a nice spacious booth. The servers were very friendly and attentive. We got the hibachi steak and shrimp and the hibachi steak and scallops which were both delicious. The fried rice was extremely flavorful and the portions are generous. The side of veggies was absolutely amazing. The price point is also very good. Some teppanyaki restaurants are extremely overpriced and Yamato is priced fairly especially for how much food you get. The atmosphere is fun and lively and perfect for celebrating birthdays, graduations, etc.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly atmosphere. High noise level for babies but very fun and lively for littles.“

“Always good sushi chef Ian is awesomeness“

“First time here and it did not disappoint! Food was delicious, tried several different rolls and all of them were good, the presentation was also great! Friendly staff and the prices were extremely reasonable compared to other place. I will definitely be back“

“The store itself felt a little empty decoration wise. They had one waitress working, but she was very attentive. Each table had tablets(ours lost charge) where you could order everything. It's great especially if you are introverted or indecisive and need extra time. If you prefer, they do also have regular menus. The food itself was amazing. They brought every thing out fairly quickly. I highly recommend the shishido peppers for an appetizer. Definitely coming again.“

“Good food and service. I enjoyed it.“

“Some of the freshest Sushi, Sashimi and Nigiri around, I legit drive 45min to an 1 hr 10 min depending on traffic just to eat here. All you can eat but its not your typical all you can eat. I love the white fish Sashimi and the Spicy Tuna Salad.“

“Amazing everytime The Red Eye is the bomb 🍣🍤“

“The Best Sushi Place!
I have been here three times now and it does not disappoint! There are two menus, the full menu the restaurant offers and a paper menu for ordering sushi. I love the sushi and sashimi they have. Each time the waiters were friendly and so were the chefs. You are even able to see them cut and prepare the sushi! The sushi rolls we ordered were so tasty and it was so good. Highly recommend visiting!“

Dietary restrictions: Come check it out

Kid-friendliness: Of course

Wheelchair accessibility: Of course“

“Everything....A+++++. Clean and the food for take out was great!“

“Nice place Delicious Fresh food Many menu Friendly“

“Definitely needs a higher rating. Cause the sushi here was phenomenal! I mean the taste and quality was just truly amazing. We had the flaming salmon roll. The salmon just melted in your mouth. It had crab in it as well and it didn’t over power it. It blended so nicely together. Then there was a special that the chef made. It was so good. Meant to ask what he puts in it. But it was so delicious. Staff is so friendly and fun loving. They have such a good atmosphere and the service was truly great. We even had their house cold-sake. It was so good. The best part of whole experience was just how affordable it was! Definitely give this place a try.“

“Wow! I mean like really wow. This place is fantastic! I have had poké in just about every city in Los Angeles and this place is on point with the best! Super fresh, big servings, great price and what a wonderful welcome! The man working there, his name is Danny. He had me laughing the whole time. Felt like being at home with friends! Thank you PF! You are my new spot!“

“Had a great experience at I Love Sushi! The decor was beautiful — modern, clean, and created a relaxing dining atmosphere. I ordered the bento box, and it was fresh, well-portioned, and delicious.

Service was friendly and efficient, and everything came out quickly. Definitely a spot I’d come back to for good food and a comfortable vibe!“

“I used to go here as a kid but it was Japanese, but the new Korean cuisine was top tier the food was good, service, and probably the best atmosphere I've witnessed highly recommend if your around the area looking for Korean cuisine to eat with family or friends. 👍👌“

“Omg they have been around for a while now in Saugus, and I have passed by many times thinking that they won't have anything for vegetarian people since it's a sushi spot. Boy, was I wrong! I was alittle under the weather and wanted Pho, and once I got there I placed my order and noticed the sushi menu. Saw a baked veggie roll, she suggested it was worth the try and you wont be disappointed! I'm so glad I finally tried and found my new favorite spot.

Vegetarian options: Baked vegetarian rollsVegetarian Pho“

“😁😁 Great Place to Dine !“

“O Sushi is our family’s favorite! Long time sushi lovers, we’ve been to many different restaurants over the years, and consider O’s one of the best. Their tuna tataki tops all! 😍“

“As you enter you are greeted by an open and spacious space. The sushi bar area is nicely decorated and looks well maintained. The entire restaurant is meticulously clean with everything in its place.

Service is attentive and gracious. I ordered the Chicken Karaage Curry and my mom ordered the Salmon Collar. When our food arrived it looked fantastic. The Chicken Karaage looked really crunchy. I ate a piece off the top and it was extremely crunchy, my expectations were high. I dipped a piece of chicken into the curry sauce, but the sauce seemed bland. As I ate it was clear the chicken was incredible, but the curry sauce was broken. There were multiple signs of separation. Some parts were watery and bland, other parts were thicker with stronger flavor. In the picture separation can be seen around the edges of the sauce. Another issue is the rice was room temperature and the grains were starting to tighten and did not mix well with the curry sauce. The disappointing thing is both issues could have easily been fixed before serving. The curry sauce was an easy fix and the rice just had to be warmed. Small things really do make a big difference. I would give the Chicken Karaage alone a 5 out of 5, but with the curry sauce and rice, I would knock that down to a 3.5 out of 5. If everything was freshly made I'm sure it would have been a 5 out of 5.

This is a Sushi Bar and I didn't even try the sushi, so I can't say much about it. However, the prices are very reasonable and definitely worth a try.

Overall the issues were minor. So, this is a place worthy of a shot.“
