    Ordered on Postmates and they prepared our food so quickly! The American dragon roll was yummy and they provided a decent side of eel sauce. The Alaskan cut roll was mid, salmon was kind of hard, wouldn't recommend. My girlfriend got the sunrise on second, negihama c/r, and yellowtail yo-yo sushi, all of which she said were good. Prices were good too so I'll definitely try more rolls next time.

    Honestly, I'm not sure if I was really just starving and it's been a while since I've had sushi so I was excited... But I think this was the best sushi I have ever had. That is a bold statement, but that is how I felt about my experience last night and I'm excited to go back and eat more sushi! We got a bunch of different things on their happy hour menu and then ordered more. I think the Sexy girl roll and the spicy tuna on crispy rice where my two favorite things. The chicken teriyaki was also really yummy. There is a parking lot, but it is small and was full so we had to find street parking, but it wasn't too bad.

    I've passed by this spot so many times but never actually tried it--until I heard about their happy hour. I'm really glad I finally gave it a chance because it did not disappoint. The place has a modern, relaxed vibe that makes it easy to just sit back and enjoy your food. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and neatly presented without being over the top. It's the kind of spot that keeps things simple but still delivers on quality, making it a great option whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or taking advantage of their happy hour deals. Also! They do have parking which is great! Considering it's

    Amazing happy hour menu

    I am so happy I finally tried this place! Plenty of free parking in the lot, clean bathrooms. Such a quaint place with a cute ambiance. Absolutely amazing service! Our waitress was great and the whole team works together to deliver your food, ask if you need more drinks, bus the tables, etc. We ordered the crunch roll, sexy girl roll and a couple others and they were all amazing and fresh! The happy hour menu is the star here! Every day from 3-6 and amazing deals! We got 5 rolls, 2 being premium rolls, for only $50ish dollars! Other great happy hour deals as well. We ordered a pitcher of beer and hot sake and all were very reasonably priced. I cannot wait to go back and try more food! Delicious!!

    Salmon and yellowtail sashimi with a special piece of salmon belly (the yellowtail was special too )

    39 Degrees and I Luv Sushi are still two of my top favorites for specialty rolls and sashimi. My daughter and I came in a little over a week ago to have sushi. We sat at the bar this time around and were attended by Jay and behind the counter making our sushi was John (I couldn't clearly hear his name but I believe that was his name.) He was very friendly and even offered me a piece of salmon belly sashimi so I could taste the difference between that and the regular salmon sashimi. It really does melt in your mouth! Thank you for the special treatment Between the two of us, we shared a sunrise on second roll, 3 pieces each of salmon and yellowtail sashimi and two pieces of unagi sushi. It was all very fresh and delicious, and my kid had fun sitting at the counter vs a table. Will be back soon!

    Ashely Roll

    We were in the area on a late Saturday evening and we're in the mood for some sushi. Decided to try this place. When we arrived, we were greeted immediately and seated right away. It was late, so it wasn't too busy. It took us a while to order because of the large selection, but we decided to try a few things. We ordered the Ashley roll, orange roll, Sake Maki, Tonkatsu Ramen, salmon, skin hand, roll, and salmon bowl. Everything came out pretty quickly and it was very good. The prices were very reasonable here so we were happy to get a great meal for a reasonable price. My favorite was the orange roll. To sum it up, this is a great place to try out. If you're in the area, give them a try. Staff is very friendly, the restaurant is nice and clean, the bathrooms were also nice and clean, and food was delicious. We will definitely be back if we're in the area.

    Spicy Tuna C/R
    Katelynn R.

    First time here and I can't wait to come back! Service was so nice and made sure that the rolls were free of shellfish for my friend who is allergic. Sushi was delicious too! Their happy hour ends at 6 so we missed that but I definitely want to come back for that. The spicy edamame was sooooo good too! Inside was clean and bathrooms were clean too.

    Ika geso, Spicy Miso Soup, Sexy Girl Roll, Sunrise on Second Street Roll
    Nicki A.

    Finally got to try this place! I've driven by it so many times and always wanted to try. It was a rainy day, and I wanted soup and this was yelp's first hit. Thankfully, I was also craving sushi! The service was quick, friendly, and easy. The ambiance was relaxed and family-friendly. The food was great!! My favorite was the Sunrise on Second Street roll and the spicy miso soup (tasted like tom yum!) I also got to try Ika Geso (fried squid tentacles) This will be a new sushi staple especially since it's so close to home, thank you 39 Degrees!

    Yellowtail collar

    3.5 stars Finding a sushi spot open late in the Long Beach area is basically a quest and 39 Degrees came through. We skipped Dodger Stadium food (nothing healthy there) and decided to wait until after the game to eat, which led us here. We weren't sure about the quality at first, so we stuck with cooked options: spicy garlic edamane, volcano roll, baked green mussels, and yellowtail collar. Every single thing was surprisingly good and we even had enough leftovers for one more meal! Prices were super reasonable, parking was easy since they have a lot in the back, and the whole vibe was chill. Definitely coming back for late night sushi again.

    It was my second time visiting this place. The first time, I remember enjoying their sashimi salad for lunch. This time I was with a friend that doesnt like super raw rolls so I compensated. We ordered various items and honestly I still prefer their (more) rare menu items. I didnt like their miso soup but liked their sake. Dint take pics of all orders but overall recommend this place for late night.

    Crunchy Roll, Spicy Tuna roll
    jeffrey h.

    The food was really good. Spicy tuna roll was exceptional, I really liked the crunchy roll as well. Service was so fast and Sammie the server I had was so great, genuinely kind and happy, perfect person to match the great food! Plenty of parking in the back. Very reasonable prices. The place was clean, the ambiance was fine. I will definitely be back. Great place for lunch. Thank you!

    Spicy Udon Soup with shrimp
    Marissa O.

    Went to dinner tonight with our daughters, on Saturday and arrived about 5:30PM. Happy hour menu was great, and it's was available until 6PM - but our service was reallllly slow today, by the time our drink order was taken, happy hour was just about done. I can only hope it wasn't intentionally slow so we can pay full price. For starters: Spicy edamame - great taste - plenty of chili flakes - 10/10 Garlic edamame. - it's not bad - 7/10 We also tried the scallop tempera, and that was delicious. - 8/10 Main dishes: Spicy Upon Soup- chef's kiss - 10/10 BLC roll - our favorite - 10/10 Tsunami roll - 8/10 Chicken teriyaki bowl - 6/10 Chicken teriyaki plate - 6/10 My girls said the teriyaki was just OK Dessert: Strawberry Mochi - comes with 2 pieces of- 10/10 Service: Unfortunately, today it was a 7/10 The restaurant was not too busy, but the service was extremely slow. And our server was very soft spoken, so it was difficult to hear her over their music.

    We came here after a walk on the beach And the food was great but the service was 10/10 the girl who helped us was so sweet and very attentive. I love that they have kids meals and good portions. We will be coming back again (:

I love the garlic and chili combos with a little citrus flavor. Also ordered the stinky roll, which is spicy tuna on the inside and salmon on the outside which I liked very much couldn't decide on a second roll so I asked the server to surprise us and kind of regret doing that because he had brought us a roll that I was already cringing at reading the description on the menu which was their long beach roll however, the crunch it had on the inside was very nice and not too heavy. I don't feel that asparagus should be anywhere near a sushi roll, but that was my bad. Also ordered their Yuzu cheesecake, which was a no for me. It was too strong and screaming Yuzu simialr to lemon zest and super tiny. The quality of the ingredients they use here are pretty good. I would come back to try other items, but I do not suggest getting their dessert or their long beach roll.

I've had a wide range of their sushi rolls and nigiri, and they've all been amazing. Some standouts: Salmon Sample, Aburi Miso Salmon, Toro, Salmon Lemon Roll, and Yuzu Roll. My favorite appetizer is the Agedashi Tofu. The flavors are insane! They also have a "bento box" type of option where you can choose two or three items for a great price. This is a great option for non-sushi eaters and sushi eaters alike because the options include chicken teriyaki, chicken katsu, tempura, and several roll options. Service is usually pretty good.

I typically come in on Sunday evenings and have been lucky to get some live amaebi (sweet shrimp), fresh sea bream, halibut with truffle and caviar, yellowtail belly, shima Aji (striped jack) and toro (really fatty tuna). They're also known for their seared Aburi Miso Cod, which melts in your mouth with umami flavors. They also carry uni, giant clam and ankimo but sell out fast. Everything I've tasted has been incredibly fresh and satisfying. From the kitchen, I really like the al dente edamame with added spicy garlic crunch, their take on Agedashi tofu with spicy red radish and fried onion, baked green mussels and seafood tempura. The agedashi tofu and tempura were executed well, crispy and love the added shiso leaf and umeboshi paste to add flavor to the fish tempura. The sushi chef, Kay, and staff are so attentive and nice. Everything came out quickly and empty plates were cleared promptly too. The sushi bar seats about 8 people (my preference) while there are about 6 small tables. Metered street parking can be tough in this area. Kay said the original Manhattan Beach location is better in terms of space and recognition. I will try to keep Sushi Beluga here with my support!

For dishes I highly recommend trying the sushi nikkei tasting (they also have a sashimi tasting): the flavor profile was WILD - nothing like I've had before in the area, perhaps even riveting some well known LA/ Hollywood/Culver city areas!! Definitely distinct flavors. We also had the Acebichado Roll and Oba Roll - OMGoodness, so delish! Anyway, although service was a tad slow in the beginning (they were busy, we went on a Friday, sat by the wall behind a beam), the owner was on top of it and my partner and I kept complimenting the food!

This is my first…read moretime at the Bixby Knolls location, so it could just be that it's better than the Belmont Shore location. Sushi Nikkei is a unique experience, blending sushi with Peruvian cuisine. It's a fantastic date night spot for adventurous foodies. Here's what I got that I think really made Sushi Nikkei shine: Scallops - These grilled scallops are small, but pack a punch with smoky charred flavors from the grill, tender scallops, and crispy crunchies from the popped quinoa. This is a great starter. Tuna Tacos - These are simple and delicious. One to two bites of crisp, refreshing, flavorful tuna tartare in a light, flaky fried wonton shell. Tostada - This was good, but a goof one to pass on if you're choosing between appetizers. It's a good sample of all of the fresh flavors available, but the tuna tacos are just a similar and better option. Nikkei Tasting - The Nikkei tasting is the perfect way to try what Peruvian sushi means. It's a fun encapsulation of what flavors they want to bring forward in their dishes. All of the pieces are very unique, flavorful, and fun to try. I've gotten this every single time I've been here and I have not regretted it. Unknown Tiradito - I am always underwhelmed by their tiraditos/ceviche situations, so it makes sense why I can't remember what this one was called. I also can't find the name on their menus, but I've included it in the photos here. They're fresh, but to me, the flavors are always a little wonky. This one in particular was relying on the flavor of a high quality olive oil, but it never came through. Lava Scallops - We added this one as a bite to our Nikkei tasting. It has a plump, juicy piece of scallop. Shinjuku - The shinjuku is a must order, and our favorite Nikkei bite of the night. It was simple, delicious, and a perfect way to showcase the quality of their fish and flavors. I had a group dinner here, so we all had a blast trying lots of different things. I think this is a perfect date night spot for your adventurous partner.  Parking is plentiful, hot sake is flowing, and food is interesting to talk about and enjoy together. Enjoy!
