Fantastic traditional Japanese (as in not Korean, not American style).
Omakase was perfect & very fairly priced. Fish quality was over the top orgasmic good.
We also had the baby octopus salad photo attached that was absolutely fantastic tender and extremely tasty.
In short extremely glad we finally tried this place. Won’t be the last time for sure.

I havent had sushi this good in a long time. The service was amazing, atmosphere was awesome, and most of all the food was ridiculously good. The omakase was definitely worth it.

I recently revisited Kashiwa after a hiatus during the pandemic, finding that ownership had changed hands. Initially apprehensive about potential changes to the quality of the food, I’m pleased to report that my fears were unfounded. With some time to spare, my companion and I decided to pay a visit, and our experience left us happily surprised.
One of my favorites maki is the off-menu umeshiso maki, and it is the first time i see it on a menu. Despite having dinner plans in less than two hours, we opted for a few items to savor the moment. The chirashi, priced reasonably at $45.00, was a delightful combination of generous fish portions and the perfect amount of rice. For those undecided, it’s an excellent choice.
In addition to the chirashi, I ordered the umekyu maki, fatty salmon nigiri, and a salmon skin roll. Each dish hit the mark in terms of taste and presentation. The miso soup was a flavorful accompaniment to the meal.
The service remained as friendly and attentive as I remembered, and the ambiance, thankfully unchanged, retained the traditional Japanese restaurant feel that I’ve always appreciated about Kashiwa. Overall, my return to Kashiwa was not only reassuring but also a reminder of why it has been my favorite place for traditional Japanese sushi in Long Beach.

Variety of dishes, sushi, and all were tasty, atmosphere peaceful. The service was excellent. It was a little pricy and no prices are posted. But the final bill was about what I thought it would be.

Very authentic and very good sushi. I sat at the bar and spoke a little Japanese with the two chefs, who seemed to really appreciate my effort, and they were extremely nice.
I ordered the Sashimi Omakase and the Live Shrimp for a total around $77.
The fish was fresh and was textured exactly how I expected the cuts to be.
The Live Shrimp is definitely a unique item I haven’t tried before, and is something I recommend to the adventurous eater. You get the bodies (which are freshly slaughtered) on nigiri rolls and the heads are fried completely. I’ve had sushi places fry fish bones after the dish was completed, before, so this seemed pretty normal. I ate the legs and the backs, but decided to leave the heads since I was sure how I felt about them.
I will definitely be back next time I visit Long Beach for work! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My friend took me for lunch here. It’s his regular place but it was my first time. So both of us ordered omakase meals. Kind of exciting since we don’t know what we’re going to get. The sushi was incredible. So good. The chef sure made excellent choices for us. Every time a plate comes out, the waiter would explain to us what we get. Very friendly and professional.
We had a great time. Definitely will come back for more omakase.

Kashiwa is a fantastic restaurant with a fantastic omakase.
The food is well worth the money, and is extremely fresh. While the price may turn away some you are paying for quality and a superb range of flavors that other sushi places do not achieve.
The restaurant does get busy later in the day and for good reason, if you want to eat dinner here a reservation is a good idea.

STILL TAKEOUT ONLY as of April, 2022.
This is my favorite place for traditional sushi. The food and experience are excellent. Service starts with hot hand towels, and the miso soup and hot tea are good, but the star is the sushi. The fish was sparkling fresh, and portioned and cut the way I like. Of course it is – because the chef is a fussy old guy whose been doing this for decades.
Advice to diners – If you want rolls with cream cheese and pistachios, then try elsewhere. Ask about the specials – they buy what is best and won’t buy the rest. Please keep asking for dine-in service to restart.
