“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.“

“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“

“We love Joy. My family have been regulars for many many years. Food is awesome. Service is great, servers friendly. Only bummer, when we, as a family, went to celebrate my birthday on Saturday, we presented a gift certificate my husband & I were gifted from my Kids. It was issued at the end of 2019, expired at the end of 2020. Because of Covid we did not venture out until late last year. They did not not honor it. A little bit of a disappointment, but not going to keep us from frequenting our fav local sushi restaurant.“

“*First timer*

Delicious! A friend brought me here,since im still fairly new to the area. Its tiny not big, its cozy. It feels like your in a different place,which is cool. Our waiter was great,service was awesome too. We got there just before 5 o'clock. It was full,but we still go seated quickly. The ramen soup bowls are what we both had. It was super yummy! Also had potstickers, California roll..everything was good. We split the bill. Overall really good experience.“

“When I’m in Whittier visiting my sister I always swing by for a bowl of Pho and spring rolls“

“Great food and service…#13“

“It’s a great(safe) inexpensive sushi place. Usually the words safe, inexpensive and sushi are never in the same sentence. However, Blu Fin is definitely the exception.“

“Qauint and charming sushi place. Reaonably priced for fresh sashimi and sushi dishes. Very pleasantly surprised w the freshness of the seafood!
Service was attentive and sweet even when it got busy.
Definitely a repeat customer!“

“The food was bomb! The fish was so fresh! And they only use blue fin tuna! It melted in my mouth! I absolutely loved it! The spot is cute! The service was great! They are so attentive! I highly recommend coming with a big appetite because there is a lot on the menu that you have to get! The fatty tuna was sooo good! And i was also impressed by their ramen! It was rich and smooth!“

“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.“

“The thickest and girthiest sushi rolls I've ever had and it was fantastic.
The staff and service was incredible! Big shout out to Crystal** our server and John the owner for making us feel extremely welcomed and very well fed.

My personal fave was the I LOVE JASMINE roll named after the owner's wife and the Daniel San roll named after the owner's son!

It's a family of great taste forsure!

Also loved how amazing the ambiance was, a GIANT screen to watch the game, plenty of fun decorations that made the space feel fun and alive!

I must come back for the happy hour specials!!“

“Overall 5 stars:

Rationale:
- tons of treats, snack, to choose from
- raw fish quality looked decent and fresh
- sushi quality is superb for being made in advance
- prices : very reasonable

Only suggestions for a better overall customer experience:
- better organization for the refrigerators
- it's too tight and not enough space to open refrigerator doors without bumping people or bothering others while shopping
- the Yama in LA felt like it has a better organization to it, the space size appears to be similar from what I recall, I may be wrong

Having said that:
- this place is phenomenal and you should definitely give it a try
- staff is incredibly nice
- the quality is top notch
- variety/options are decent
- you won't be disappointed and you'll definitely find yourself returning for more“

“We have been to this wonderful place several times and every time we come it is great! It can get very busy because it is great and because it is small. They have used their space strategically to get as many tables as possible. The staff is always friendly, welcoming and helpful. Tonight our server was Tang (not sure of the correct spelling) and he was exceptional!! Fantastic energy, super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! They have a separate vegan menu which is really awesome! Now the food…absolutely delicious and quite filling! We always leave with leftovers for the next day. Today we got (all vegan) Veggie Tempura Plate, Vegan Crispy Rice, Caterpillar roll, and CA Crunch roll. Our server also brought us the Salmon roll. All were SO good! We were also given a scoop of green tea ice cream which was also really tasty! This is a fabulous restaurant that we will continue to frequent and highly recommend!“

“Out of this world omakase. Yum!“

““Oh wow” the first words that I could come up with when my wife asked me how the food was.
We ordered: Japanese ceviche, Y-not roll, Salmon roll, California roll, yellowtail sushi and halibut sushi.
Everything was absolutely fantastic, fresh and full of flavor.
I highly recommend the yellowtail sushi if you want raw sushi
I recommend the y-not roll if you want a specialty roll, it is a little spicy so beware.
If you want to try something new we recommend the Japanese ceviche, it has the perfect mix of sweet and salty.
Overall you could tell the fish are fresh and not old mush, and even the plating of every dish was admirable.
The service is also fantastic, we were checked on regularly by our servers, had all of our questions answered and even got solid recommendations.
This place is definitely worth traveling for, decent prices too!“

“Came here based on recommendations from our friends and it did not disappoint. We ordered the sushi boat for 2 which came with thick cuts of sashimi, deep fried soft shelled crab, shrimp and veggie tempura, fried chicken, and teriyaki (we got the beef and chicken mix). There was so much food it was probably enough to serve 4 people!

They offer miso soup and edamame for the table when you get seated. The restaurant itself is pretty small but we came for a late dinner on Fri and was seated immediately. Sashimi is very fresh and portions were generous. Our friends really recommend the chirashi bowl so that’s what we’re gonna get next time we’re back. What a hidden gem of a restaurant! :)“

“I HIGHLY recommend this sushi spot. Amazing food and outstanding service. The atmosphere is so welcoming and great music. If you go I recommend getting spicy garlic edamame, albacore with crispy onion, mango ceviche, aloha roll and spicy seafood ramen. If you do not eat sushi they have many great options such as Beef, Chicken, Tempura Udon, Teppanyaki, Yaki Udon and Yakisoba. You will not be disappointed!“

“I found this place through the Michelin restaurant guide.

A cozy place to enjoy authentic Japanese food. We ordered rolls, salad, and sashimi. The salmon wrapped crab meat sashimi is my favorite.

Be mindful of their schedule for lunch as they open for only three hours from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm.“

“Sushi Mura has the best ramen in Buena Park. This was my first time here. I've been to most ramen places in Buena Park, and didn't realize Sushi Mura is a hidden gem Sushi and ramen place near me.

The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. The menu had more options than I'll ever be able try. I had the special sake and appetiser deal for $30 and was not disappointed.

Sushi Mura has the best Spicy Tonkatsu in Buena Park, hands down. I'm a little picky and asked for not sprouts or mushrooms, and was not disappointed.“

“a minimal seating and parking area; but amazing service, great atmosphere, and top-notch food! Sushi, soups, bento boxes, you name it! everything is fresh and made to order. I love this gem of a restaurant.

Parking: parking is limited due to it being in a small center.“

“We absolutely love Shibuya! My dad and I come here after work sometimes, and it’s truly one of our favorite spots. The owner, Tim, is so kind and generous, and he always makes us feel so welcomed. What really stands out is how they remember us every time—we’re greeted like family, which makes the experience even more special.

The food is always extremely delicious and fresh, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. The servers are amazing too—super friendly, attentive, and always make sure we’re taken care of. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers.

This place has definitely become our go-to, and we keep coming back because of the great food, great service, and the welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend Shibuya to anyone looking for a spot that feels like home!“

“Friendly, clean, fast, and oh so good...
They made the inside look like the outside, im guessing thats what restaurants are doing now....
I took my 2 year old with us for dinner and she enjoyed the teriyaki bowl and calamari.“

“Best sushi in LA! Everything melted in your mouth! The fish is fresh, the price is affordable, and the service is great! It looks like a hole in the wall - but wow :)) We eat there once a week and love it! Drove all the way from Studio City to have dinner there - 2 hours each way in traffic - so that's obviously what it says :)) Haha Just love it!“

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

“Great place for sushi! Servers are friendly and attentive. Food is great for a quick bite or small gathering. We have had birthday lunches here with 6+ people and they accomodates very well even though the the restaurant is on the smaller side.“

“If you are in the San Gabriel Valley area you must stop here if you want amazing Sashimi. Started with fatty Tuna that melted in my mouth so fresh delicious then moved on to giant Clams (Mirugai) it was sweet & crunchy I could have gone for second order not many sushi restaurants have (Mirugai)The fatty belly Salmon was buttery & the spicy Tuna hand roll sashimi was perfect coz I’m a spicy food addict it was just heavenly for me. Yum yum 🤤 ended with Kumamoto Oyster 🦪 it was so sweet like cotton candy in your mouth made me wanting more which I did order more. Lol 😂 The house hot Sake was good for a cold night paired so well with my amazing Sashimi! Great way to end my Friday night here! Thank you Chef!“

They have a fantastic variety of specialty rolls and an amazing all-you-can-eat option that gives you insane value for the price. The staff is warm, attentive, and super friendly, which makes the whole dining experience awesome. Easily one of my favorite go-to spot—10/10 recommend!“

“La comida está riquísima mis respetos para todos Siempre que vamos nos ha tiende “Jorge “ bien atento con lo que necesitas Los tacos de pulpo 🐙 los mejores #1“

“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“

“So straight up the service is sloppy. They are super kind and get you what you ask for but there's just no... refined skills is the only way I can think of putting it. It's a well-oiled machine as far as getting the food out getting the people their drinks and cycling through.. sit down and DO NOT expect a luxurious experience but definitely a Tasty one!:)
The rolls and food are beautifully prepared and executed. Except the calamari.
It's a small venue, crowded, busy and a good value.“

“got one roll with way too much rice in one bite and wondered if id made a mistake but then the salmon belly melted on my tongue and everything was totally fine

perfect little spot the staff are freindly and the miso is warming“

“An absolute hidden gem! We drove all the way from Santa Monica for a fun night out and were blown away by how exceptional the sushi was. Every bite felt like a surprise — the fish is incredibly fresh, the hand rolls are a must-try, and the sushi rice is easily the best we’ve ever had. For the quality you get, the prices are unbeatable. This spot is top-notch in every way, and we’ll definitely be coming back again and again.“

“We absolutely love this hidden gem of a restaurant.If you're in the area of la habra near imperial, you gotta come here.It's like you stepped right into a little slice of japan, but they're playing really great fifties and sixties rock“

“This place is a nice change from the ordinary. Very clean and the staff was very attentive. The food was very delicious. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“This was our first time coming to this Korean sushi restaurant. It was a great experience although this is not somewhere I'd bring a large group based on the limited seating. The service was great and the sushi tasted fresh. I recommend the Cerritos and crispy sushi for sure. I would recommend this place for sure.“

“We came here on a whim looking for some good mariscos when we were traveling through LA from San Diego for my friends birthday. I can't rave enough about the food! The seafood was sooooo fresh and delicious! The presentation of the food as well. It was like a piece of art. We got to meet the owner's (family owned). They were so sweet and very attentive to your experience at the restaurant. I don't usually take photos of my food but please check out the photos so you can see the love that went into making each dish. We highly recommend this place if you are a foodie looking for some delicious mariscos!“
