Reviews
We ordered sashimi, six different rolls, and tempura — everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor (my faves were the Cajun Salmon Roll + Salmon Lava Roll – not pictured because I dug in immediately ). The sashimi melted in our mouths, the rolls were creative and delicious, and the tempura was light and perfectly crisp.
Did I mention they have a BOGO 50% off on rolls right now? (STEAL!) AND you have a chance to win a Labubu with a $50+ purchase? Bummer that I didn’t win it, but it was still fun to spin the wheel.
Friendly service with an authentic ambience, which made it even better. 10/10 recommend.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I ordered a combination sashimi and tempura plate. It was pretty good. Tempura was crunchy on the outside. Sashimi was fresh and very good. Two pieces each of yellowfin and salmon.
California Rolls were very good too.
A good place to eat, but the need to step up on there service.
I highly recommend trying the shokado bento, as it was surprisingly good. The tempura was light and flavorful without being too greasy, and the portions were true to Japanese tradition – just enough to leave you feeling satisfied. The quality of the sashimi was superb as well.
Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Japanese dining experience.
We were celebrating my mom’s birthday and in a large group of 11. We were able to use a side room, just off the main dining room, which was very cool as we were loud and messy :). They also have some traditional Japanese dining areas, sit down style, which looked to accommodate groups up to 8 people or so. Not sure if they are staffed for that, but may be an option with up front notice – sorry, forgot to take pics :(.
We ordered too many items to list, but some key takeaways. Their “boats” can definitely serve more than 2 people as noted. The sashimi and California rolls that come with the boat is very small, but otherwise huge servings and probably serve four people, especially if you add a few sushi, sashimi or rolls. Steamed clams appetizer was delicious and again, larger serving than anticipated. Grilled squid was also a standout. Whole squid, grilled to perfection. Spicy tuna nachos, Brussels sprouts and jalapeño Hamachi were also table favorites. Nigiri sushi, which is what I ordered was good. Not really a standout, but if you are there with a group and want to try different types of dishes, this is the place to go.
Service was really friendly and helpful, except when they were very busy, but we were there from 5-8pm and for the most part very happy. Especially how helpful they were with some of the extra service that comes with a birthday (think cake, extra plates, candles, lighter, etc) and large group (think extra plates, bowls and chopsticks for sharing).
Consensus was that we will be back for future group dinners due to the side room, food and service.
The one thing I would ask them to work on is their restrooms. Women’s restroom didn’t have liners and men’s restroom didn’t have paper towels. They addressed it as soon as we brought it up, but seems like an easy item to fix before opening.
Hoping to update to a 5 star review after the next visit!
We came here for dinner after watching a movie at the nearby AMC Atlantic Times Square. Since it has been colder than usual in Southern CA these past several days, we decided to get udon. My friend got the regular udon. I got the Nabeyaki udon.
Our waiter was friendly, and checked on us and refilled our green teas at least once. They might have been shorthanded because he wasn’t able to be as attentive after more people came in. We had to wave him down to ask for the bill .
A fly seemed to have entered the restaurant at some point when perhaps the front door was opened by a customer. It was flying around and we found ourselves constantly waving it away from our food.
Finally, our waiter came with a fly-swatter and tried to swat and shoo it away. I don’t think he meant to make a commotion. But there was just so much swatting and shooing activity right around where we sat in his attempts to try to get to the fly.
If it wasn’t for that, we would have had a much more relaxed dinner without having to look constantly around us for the fly possibly landing on our food.
The udon was hot and delicious and our green teas kept us very warm as well on a cold day !
There is a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant and we easily parked there !
Overall, it’s a really nice and quaint restaurant in the heart ❤️ of Monterey Park where you can get seated and served right away ☺️!
