Same amazing food, great drinks, and superior service - simply new faces and new surroundings.

Thanks for a lovely meal!“

“First time trying sushiholics and the experience was amazing variety of sushi, friendly staff and clean area. Definitely recommend coming here and trying out their sushi.“

“I had a very delicious bunch of boxes, and miso soup. Wow it is tucked inside the mall which is a best place to eat. The food is better than all of the other food. If you have to choose between box, generic Italian food, sticky fried food, prepared sushi with ingredients with sushi.

Owner is very nice, and the food was delicious“

“Out of this world omakase. Yum!“

“This place is incredible. Everything I ordered was amazing; the fish/shellfish was fresh and cooked perfectly when applicable, the sauces were great, and the portions and pricing are beyond reasonable. I’ll definitely be coming here frequently.“

“Celebrated a graduation here and had a great time. Were seated promptly, had excellent service, enjoyed the lively atmosphere. Food was tasty and beautifully presented. Management came by and brought dessert for the table on the house for the graduate, very thoughtful and appreciated. Made the meal that much more special. Would go again.“

“Came here with high hopes and was not disappointed. Had to ask for the omakase since it was not on the menu. There's the 100$ level and the boss level for 150$. I honestly dont know what the difference was even though the very nice wait staff tried to explain it to me. It was just a bunch of japanese words lol. Anyhow I went yolo and got the boss level and it was the best 150 i spent that day. Every dish was mostly perfect except for the dessert. They need to up their dessert game.“

“One of our favorites for family night or date night!“

“Great food and service. Been going there over 7 years. Get there early. Leía and Lily are awesome. Luis is the sushi master!“

“AKASAKA. WOW. I was on set and got hungry so me & G3 went to the sushi joint that’s literally tucked away and VERY IYKYK (if you know, you know). All I gotta say is that the Yellowtail Cut Roll got me dancing. The hospitality was great, we were given Iced Green Teas on the house because we were waiting for our to go orders. I gotta dine inside soon & get the real experience.

“Great food and great service!“

“Food was delicious!!! We had our two great granddaughters with us, they treated them so nicely, gave them extra tofu and attention!!! We will be visiting again soon!!“

“Great local sushi spot with stone decent pricing!

Seating is very limited and the menu gives off a bit of a dated feel but you really can't argue the classics when they're done well.

Sushi rice had just a bit of tang and was light and fluffy.

Dishes were presented very well and our server was thoughtful and cautious enough to make sure our table wasn't overflowing. We ordered about 6 items and by the 3rd plate things were crowding up.

Blue crab avocado roll ($9) - A little heavy on the Japanese mayo and rice but it made for a great presentation on the plate it was on.

Tempura mixed ($9) - 3 pieces of shrimp and 3 pieces of veggies. I'm on the fence with this one since I really enjoyed the presentation but felt like the batter on the shrimp was heavy and the veggies were mostly extra starchy items.

Mini spicy tuna bowl ($9) - This was a pleasant favorite! Just the right amount of heat and a decent amount of tuna over that delicious sushi rice. The first couple of bites where the cold tuna contradicts the warm rice was like being able to eat that feeling of walking on the warm sand and letting the chilly ocean water cool you off.

Amberjack/Hamachi Tuna ($5/piece) - This was interestingly a lighter flavor than what we were familiar with. The cut was thin but blanketed the rice with just a small swipe of sauce and a dab of yuzu paste on top. Playing perfectly well with the tangy rice but also all being a star of the bite while being clean.

Grilled Tuna Belly ($12) - This was the star of the table. Lightly grilled with a bit of crispy edges, seasoned and topped with garlic and micro greens and paired with a dipping sauce on the side to choose how heavy or light you prefer to dip.

Tempura Ice cream ($7) - Couldn't leave our first visit without trying a dessert item. Classic fried ice cream that is wrapped with pound cake and rolled in their delicious tempura batter. Saving room for this is a must if you grew up demolishing these in the early 2000s.

Hidden gems are great to find and it feels like this place has a lot of classics that give you a homey feel where you don't know where to start. Just dive in and make sure you mark off the ones you've tried because there are a good amount of dishes that were of value and quality here.

The best suggestion is to focus on the sushi and always check the sushi list.“

“Excellent service fresh always“

“Limited seats but good tasting food. Took my family for the first time, and we're all happy with the meal.

Don't come in a big group as there is only 1 staff. But maybe it was because when we came in, it was Easter.

Lastly, it's not cheap.“

“Not sure how I haven’t already reviewed this place as we go all the time and have introduced it to several friends. All their rolls are DELICIOUS 🤤 We often get the caterpillar and the Thor-no-rice rolls. But honestly all their rolls are great!“

“This was my first visit and I wasn't disappointed! The all you can eat option was excellent ?, my cousins and I had four rounds until we had satisfied our appetites! I liked how they updated the restaurant from the previous occupants! I definitely will recommend and be back!“

“I visited this location recently and was warmly welcomed as soon as I walked in. Anissa assisted me, and she was incredibly kind and helpful. It was my first time ordering here, and she took the time to explain everything clearly and offered fantastic recommendations. Her genuine care and attentiveness made me feel truly valued. The food was excellent, and the place was spotless. Highly recommend!“

“Worked with Caroline to order a few party trays for my daughter’s birthday. This restaurant is so thoughtful and their sushi is high quality!! The platters were presented so beautifully and the staff were so nice to work with. Highly recommend!!“

“Enjoyed our quiet outdoor meal last night. Everything was delicious 😋“

“We left raging waters and wanted sushi. This place was close by and there was no wait for a party of 7 on a Saturday. They seem to do a lot of to go orders and delivery. The food was very good and the service was on point. Highly recommend.“

“Been going to this restaurant for at least 10 years. It’s a small place and always busy. The food has never disappointed me. The lunch special is reasonably priced and they have this great deal on party trays. For $95 I think we got about 8-10 sushi rolls, I forgot the exact count. Service is great.“

“To over priced.“

“Neighborhood’s Japanese Restaurant with good Value !“

“Very good service and good food!!“

“Amazing 🤩 great server/ food delicious“

“thee best Japanese food in Whittier hands down. my family loves visiting Dakara weekly. so many favorites like crispy rice with spicy tuna, avocado fries and sweet shrimp. love this family owned restaurant.“

“Went for a quick breakfast. Got a Mocha Latte and a Sausage and Bacon breakfast burrito. I thought it was a little pricey at $21. Burrito had a lot of potatoes and a little underseasoned. Overall it was really good and all ingredients tasted homemade. The atmosphere was different, yes it was a little cluttered but I personally dont mind that. Limited seating is available so I recommend getting to food to go. I think I'll give this place another shot next time I am around.“

“Still great since they moved next to 99 Ranch. Same big slices of sashimi in the classic bento. Same fresh shredded daikon (love it- I eat every shred). Same little side dishes (ocean salad. Salad, ginger, and a little Hi- chew candy). Keep it up guys!“

“My friend and I had a wonderful time celebrating our birthdays. The food was amazing and the owner was great with us. He made us feel welcomed. Food was delicious and green tea ice cream was so yummy.“

“The best sushi in souther California“

“Our meal was delicious and the service was amazing“

“This is a hidden gem for delicious, affordable, generously sized bento boxes and plates. They take pride in their presentation and they don’t have to do this, but they also included a lot of little extra items that compliment your meal. Like many have said, there’s a little bit of a wait but our teriyaki chicken was made fresh to order and worth it. BTW, this California Roll Plate with Teriyaki Chicken has another layer of rolls underneath, so 10 rolls total. With rising prices, it’s so nice to find a place that serves a great meal with super nice staff for under $11.“

“The food here was amazing!!! Super affordable price!! I’ve tried most of the food here. Plus, the food itself will take you back as if ur eating in Myanmar. The service was fast and very friendly. Highly recommend to anyone!! Definitely gonna come back again !!!“

“This is our favorite go-to sashimi place. The owner chef is always friendly and serves top quality sushi and sashimi. Great uni too!! Our kids love the udon here and we've enjoyed having family meals here in different occasions. Highly recommended!!“

“This place was a nice surprise. I'm so glad my husband asked the workers at the market next door where the yummy smelling food was coming from. We've been going to that Stater Bros for years and never knew there was diner right next to it. This Is now my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE teriyaki chicken bowl.“

“I have been coming here for 3 yrs. The staff are so friendly and the sashimi is always fresh!“

“Great restaurant, nice to be back . Love the food, the atmosphere and the staff“
