“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ RED WASABI… YOU’VE DONE IT AGAIN! 🍣🔥

Okay, at this point, Red Wasabi isn’t just our favorite sushi spot in the neighborhood… it’s becoming a family member. 😂

Tonight, Cisco ~ aka Francisco, aka CISCO THE SUSHI WIZARD ~ came through with some surprise nigiri that had caviar on it. Let me just say this: BOMBBBB! 💣🍣

That man didn’t just make sushi… he apparently decided our taste buds needed a VIP experience. 😂 The nigiri was fresh, creative, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. Cisco, you officially have permission to surprise us with sushi anytime. We trust you. 😂

And then there was Melanie. ❤️

Melanie was the cutest, sweetest server and was so incredibly kind and attentive. She actually reminded us so much of our cousin that once we made that connection, we were like, “Yep… we’re never forgetting her name now!” 😂

That’s what makes Red Wasabi special. It’s not just the food. It’s the PEOPLE.

You can get sushi at a lot of places, but when the chef is throwing down surprise caviar nigiri and your server makes you feel like family, THAT’S an experience.

Cisco, Melanie, thank you for taking such good care of us and making another visit to Red Wasabi one we’ll be talking about afterward.

Five stars, easily. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fresh sushi. Creative chefs. Great service. Good people. And apparently caviar surprises. 😂

Red Wasabi is officially our neighborhood sushi headquarters.

Cisco, keep doing your thing. Melanie, keep being awesome. And Red Wasabi… please don’t ever let us move away. 😂🍣❤️

We’ll be back soon!“

“I loved my experience here for lunch. The Spider Roll is an actual, real soft-shell crab roll, which is rare, and I found the Sashimi to be well-prepared, fresh, and tasty. The portions were just right, and the front of house Allyssa was kind and attentive.

The menu is very large, so it can be overwhelming, but you can’t go wrong here! To the team members and ownership, thanks for a nice lunch.“

“Absolutely amazing Spicy Dry Pot! The ingredients were super fresh and the flavor was rich, bold, and perfectly spicy. They currently have a great promo—12% off for first-timers plus a FREE drink of your choice! Awesome value for money. The staff was super friendly and the service was quick. Definitely my new go-to spot. Highly recommend!“

Overall, such a great spot, we had so much fun and absolutely loved it. Definitely coming back!

-Sushi & Roll Fusion: 8pcs sushi + 4pcs roll (spicy tuna rainbow)

“This may be one of the best sushi deals in Southern California. I know that once the word is out that it’ll be harder to get in, but they deserve the recognition.“

“I recently tried Koki Ku Sushi, a newer Japanese restaurant in Duarte, and came away pleasantly surprised.

I stopped by for their lunch special and found the service attentive and welcoming throughout the meal. The 5-piece chef's choice premium nigiri was fresh and enjoyable, with each piece offering a nice variety of flavors.

I also ordered the Salmon Teriyaki with Spicy Tuna Roll combo. The teriyaki salmon was flavorful, although the slices were a bit thinner compared to what I've had at other sushi spots. The spicy tuna roll was generously portioned and filling enough to make for a satisfying lunch.

The restaurant itself has a clean, modern design and is conveniently located in the Target plaza, where parking is plentiful and easy. Overall, Koki Ku Sushi is a nice addition to the Duarte dining scene, and I'll be back to try more items from their menu.“

“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.“

“A Delightful Sushi Experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The sushi was outstanding—fresh, expertly crafted, and beautifully presented. The chef’s special sashimi, were bursting with flavor. The nigiri was a standout, with perfectly seasoned rice and melt-in-your-mouth fish. Service was impeccable; the staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They even made excellent recommendations based on my preferences. One thing to note: Fillet doesn’t have a liquor license yet, so if you’re someone who enjoys pairing sushi with sake or wine, this might be a consideration. They said it’s coming soon, I can’t wait to come back here again.“

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

“Out of this world omakase. Yum!“

“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!!“

“Akasaka is a great place to eat authentic Japanese food. It has an intimate and simple dining, which is expected of Japanese culture. Every item on the menu is good and comes with all the expected condiments specific for that dish.
The wait times can be long so make reservations and make sure your whole party is present.
Overall, a good dining experience.“

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

“Quality food & service at reasonable prices 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“I was literally surprised that the place was empty when we went! It was my first time there, and I’m so glad we decided to give it a try. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious! Everything was great, and I would definitely come back again. Highly recommend! ❤“

“Very pretty place. Our server was such a sweetheart and would come up with lots of little jokes.
We had miso soup, gyoza, and 3 sushi rolls. The gyoza was fried, so it wasn’t my favorite, but everything else was super tasty. I really recommend the Redondo Roll. It has mango, crab, avocado, rice paper, and eel sauce. The mango complimented the taste so well.
For dessert, I would recommend the macaron with ice cream.“

“Great food and great service!“

“Excellent service fresh always“

“The food is so fresh. The presentation is very nice. Service is outstanding. pricing very reasonable. Best Sushi around for miles.“

“so far everything I've tried has been delicious!“

“Every bite feels like an artful blend of freshness, flavor, and precision. Good place for catching up with your favorite person�“

“I've been coming here for over 10 years and absolutely love this spot. Hideo has been making sushi ever since I've been going here and he is excellent. Service is always good, the place is a little small, but always busy. They have the best muscles, best albacore capaccio and rolls. Nice vibe in there. I highly recommend as this is my favorite sushi spot in the SGV.“

“Everything I had here was absolutely fantastic. The presentation is beautiful, especially the way they serve items on unique, flower-shaped plates.

The quality of the fish is clearly top-notch. I was blown away by the freshness of the uni and the rich, delicate flavors in every bite. It is rare to find a spot that pays this much attention to both the taste and the plating.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the creative touch of seeing their logo on the sake cups. This place is a gem and I cannot wait to come back for another meal.“

“We love Ezze, food is always great and the staff are awesome!“

“The most outstanding experience in this restaurant is the service and food. It always achieve our expectations and consistency in everything. Though it’s hard to have privacy in conversations because of its size. Nevertheless I love the food and their team.“

“Neighborhood’s Japanese Restaurant with good Value !“

“Tried Blufish Sushi & Grill and had a really good experience. The sushi was fresh and well-made, and the grilled dishes were just as flavorful.

The place has a clean, modern vibe and the staff were friendly and attentive. Great spot if you’re in the mood for sushi or Japanese food“

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

“Excellent sushi. Creative menu. Great wait staff.“

“Wow! I called today, Sunday, last minute for a party of 12. We were accommodated and seated within 30 minutes. Rashad the manager was our waiter. He was kind, personable, accommodating, just amazing. The staff that assisted Rashad also very nice. The food was outstanding. My party could not pick a favorite. However, we reordered the fried rice and Wagu Dumplings. You cannot go wrong with any item on the menu. The atmosphere is beautiful and intimate. Always a good time and great vibes. The owner is consistently pleasant and gracious. Highly recommend! Check out Nyx as well.“

“Very good service and good food!!“

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

“If you enjoy Asian food: sushi, ramen, and Chinese food, this place will never disappoint you. Bring your friends and family here!“

“Just grabbed some food from Spin Teriyaki & Sushi in La Habra and I gotta say Josh set the tone from the jump. Dude answered the phone like a seasoned telethon closer I half expected him to ask for a donation at the end 😂

Order was dialed in ready right when we walked in and he had everything packed up clean utensils sauces the whole deal. That kind of attention to detail doesn’t happen by accident.

Food was solid no doubt but let’s be real employees like Josh are what actually keep people coming back. You can get food anywhere. Service like that that’s rare.

Give that man a raise before someone else recruits him.“

“This is a really good sushi spot in a food court. The tempura, sushi, and bento boxes reminds of the old Sushi on Garfield takeout restaurant in Monterey Park (now permanently closed) before the owner changed its menu, but Sushi In The Box has many more choices.“

“My family has been going here for the past 3 years and we still love it. My 4 and 6 year old ask for it for their birthdays every year. Our go to order is usually the wonton soup with heavy edits, the route 66 sub, three flavors, spicy chacha, and either the quinoa salad or the joyful fried rice. And the cakes are so good, we always get either the panda or the ube. The owners used to have a spot in Pasadena but moved over here.“

“The food was good .the place very clean ,service very good ,waiter very polite“

“Fast and friendly Deli service with a smile 😃“

“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.“

“My husband and daughter love this restaurant for its AYCE sushi. It used to be Kabuki before the restaurant relocated, and it's great to see people still flocking here. The food is consistently good, and the portion sizes are just right for me.

Since I'm allergic to fish, I can't personally vouch for the sushi, but my husband and daughter say it's fresh and delicious every time. The staff is friendly, attentive, and the food comes out quickly with appealing presentation.

If you enjoyed Kabuki, you'll probably love this spot. The AYCE option feels like a great value, and there's plenty to choose from. Come hungry, because this place is unlikely to disappoint!“

“Fresh and delicious! Great local spot!“

“This place is good! The food is good the portions are awesome and the price is excellent! 25 bucks for 2 plates shrimp and 2 drinks! In 2026! The place is very clean and people are very nice! I was gonna take pictures of my food but I ate it and forgot.“

“This is one of the best and only place we like to go. They are very friendly and best fresh sushi all around. it really feels like a small family enviroment“

“sushiland is truly a hidden gem in hacienda heights. I come here almost weekly with my girlfriend and I never had something we didn’t like. The scallop roll, scallop sushi, and wagyu sushi are absolutely amazing. Toro is always fresh and the beers are cold and cheap. We are always met with a smile by the employees and truly feel the good energy in the restaurant as well as the food we are served. Beyond thankful this is a 2 minute drive I urge anyone in LP or HH to give this place a shot- i’ve eaten at about every sushi place in Hacienda Heights and this one is clearly the best.

much love sushiland,
jeff“
