Last night, my husband, son, and I were looking for somewhere new (to us) to try. We were craving Japanese. We settled in Little Tokyo because it had ok Google reviews - and was really our only option as we have been everywhere else around the immediate here.Walking in the door should have been our “sign” to go elsewhere. There was a table blocking the doorway that said DoorDash orders. A young guy appeared from behind a curtain, and I asked him if they were only doing to go orders. He seemed surprised but replied no, and moved the table out of the way a little bit for us to get by. He told us to have a seat anywhere. There were no lights nor heat on. About 15 min later he returned to the table and took our order. The lights and heat kicked on. All 3 canned drinks had expiration dates of mid Feb. Not horribly out of date. We ordered a sushi roll, filet mignon stir fry, pork katsudon, edamame, cucumber salad, and shrimp shumai. It took an hour and a half to get it all out.Husband said sushi was ok. My son could have gotten better stir fry at Round the clock. Pretty sure it was pkg and they microwaved it. And my pork katsudon was straight up microwaved. They took rice. Poured eggs over it w pork cutlet previously cooked and zapped it in the microwave. We couldn’t eat either.We also placed a to go order an hour into our meal of a tuna roll and salmon roll (6 pieces each). After an hour and a half, I had to go looking for the kid who was serving the table. He just kept disappearing. We were still the only ppl there. Finally he reappeared and we asked for our to go and the check. Someone came from the kitchen and said it would be 10 min on the to-go?. So almost 2 hours later we were walking out of the worst meal ever. Getting home found there was only 1 roll not 2 - checked the receipt and gad been charged for both.How does this place have 4.1 stars on Google is beyond me. Never again.

So I placed my order and got there at 3:01pm nobody said anything to me until 3:25pm. The only reason I waited because I already paid. The food wasn't not good to me I tried to add seasoning to my snapper but it didn't help. I'm post my picture but the seasoning is what I added to try and save

Love the decor. Took me back to when I lived overseas as a little girl. The restaurant was chill so I was able to enjoy everything and talk with my partner. I had soba noodles with chicken and veggies. The broth was flavorful, the chicken was tender and the veggies was refreshing. My partner fell in love with chicken Katsu. We were full but not overwhelmed. Will definitely visit again.

Sushi is very good. The atmosphere is a little bit old and tired. Overall a great place.

Got here at perfect timing. But they ended up cutting the menu in half so didn't have to many choices.What I did have was good almost made me feel like I was back in Cali. The bad part was it was small dishes.

Sushi is not fresh. The tuna was completely inedible and had a noticeable fishy smell it. I had to spit it out. Salmon was edible but not great. Even the California roll did not taste fresh. Everything needed sauce. Tempura, edamame, and soup were fine.It’s relatively cheap, but be careful what you pay for.

Don't go here! This is disgusting! I had the teriyaki chicken that looked and tasted like cardboard (processed meat) It had a horrible smell to it, I honestly thought that I was eating some kind of animal other than a chicken. My husband ordered teriyaki shrimp and soba noodles and he ended up with Udon noodles. We ordered around 5:15 and was told it will be ready in 30 mins and when we got there it wasn't ready......we waited 20 extra minutes and ended up being late for our appointment. The food stinks! This whole experience was horrible and I will be reporting them to all news channels. They should be shut down.

Edamame seemed to be microwaved and way too hot to eat when served. The sushi we ordered that had tuna was so bad, it looked like tuna out of a can. We spit it out it was not edible. Even the miso soup had a different kind of smell to it.
