    Rainbow row was DELICIOUS!!
    Ray M.

    My family and I had dinner here in a Saturday night. Thank goodness one of our friend's made reservations as this place gets very crowded and we were a party of seven. The restaurant is small but very cozy and full of positive vibes. You can feel the energy in the room. Management and the entire staff were extremely welcoming and soooo nice. We ordered numerous items from the menu and EVERYTHING was fresh, tasty and well prepared. Prices were a tad on the higher end but we had no regrets whatsoever on choosing this place and/or what we ordered. Parking can be challenging as the restaurant is located in a small stroll small with a bar, Mexican restaurant and three or four or businesses sharing the small parking lot. This small strip mall is located behind a Arco gas station off of very busy Whittier blvd. This was definitely a positive dining experience especially having dinner surrounded by very close and amazing friends.

    Very easy to miss this spot, but if you happen to be in the area and are craving sushi, I suggest checking this place out. The rolls were a good size, and tasted great too! I also loved the interior design of the restaurant, including the seating at the bar area. The service was attentive, and the food came out decently fast. It is very small so if you happen to go at a crowded time, you might have to wait but it is worth it.

    Hands down, this is the best sushi I have ever experienced! From the moment you walk in, the staff, the food, and the overall atmosphere are exceptional. My husband and I genuinely love coming here and always recommend it to friends and family. Every member of the team... from the owners and sushi chefs to the hostesses and back-of-house staff is wonderful. Thank you for consistently providing such a fantastic dining experience and also having the best sushi ever!!!

    What a wonderful little hole in the wall!! This place is a hidden gem! High quality Sushi! The service is impeccable! The Omakase, Tuna belly, Tuna Tataki, Seared Salmon Belly, and Seared Kobe Beef Sushi are some of the little "specials" that I love to start off with!!

    We came to E Sushi with a party of 5 on a Saturday at 7:30 PM and were able to be seated promptly. The staff were very attentive to us and were very nice and helpful. - - Spicy Garlic Edamame (5/5): A great appetizer to start with. It was flavorful and had a little bit a spice to it, but not too much, which was perfect in my opinion. - - Rick Special (5/5): Delicious!! The soft shell crab was amazing and I found myself savoring every bite that I took. Definitely a must have when placing your order. - - Diamond Special (5/5): So yummy. The melt in your mouth king salmon + the crunch of the shrimp tempura + the kick of the spicy tuna. All of it pulled together really nicely. - - Thomas Special (4.5): This one was good but not memorable. There was nothing that really made it stand out compared to other sushi rolls that I've tried before. But, there was also nothing bad about it and the roll still tasted good. It's still a solid choice if you're thinking about ordering it. - - Kobe Beef Roll (5/5): If I could give a rating higher than 5/5, I would. This roll in particular is unique and I know it might sound weird to have a sliver of Kobe Beef on a sushi roll, but it was delicious and the smokey flavor of the beef added a nice change to our palate. By far my favorite roll here. We had to place an additional order of this roll because we could not get enough of it. 100% a MUST TRY! - - Salmon Sashimi (5/5): The fish was really fresh and tasty. I'm sure my party ordered more rolls but I couldn't remember which they were. But all in all, the fish here is super fresh and delicious. The rolls are very unique and flavorful, especially the Kobe Beef Roll! The staff were all friendly and helpful when we had questions about their menu options. My experience was a 10/10 and I would definitely come back again in the future.

    It's been awhile since I had been to E sushi. Came here on a Friday night and it was pretty busy. We sat at the bar which was great because we got fast service. The salmon sushi pieces were huge and the fish tasted fresh. The scallos were also very tender, sweet and had great flavor. The salmon skin handroll was not the best. It was way too crunchy and it tasted sweet like there was eel sauce added to it. The servers were great and all really helpful. It was pretty loud in there, but the ambience was pretty chill.

Making a reservation through OpenTable was quick and easy, which set the tone for a smooth evening from the start. When we arrived, we were welcomed by warm, moody lighting and a friendly host who seated us right away. Our server, Rashad, introduced himself and helped us choose drinks based on our preferences, which we really appreciated. We started with the carpaccio platter and the black crispy rice--both were excellent and definitely worth ordering. We also shared three signature rolls, and every one of them was delicious. Throughout the evening, Rashad was attentive and personable, making thoughtful recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed. The entire staff contributed to the experience--everyone who delivered our dishes was friendly, and a special shoutout to the busser who promptly cleared empty plates so our table never felt crowded. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. You can truly tell the staff works as a team to create a memorable experience for their guests. I highly recommend it for a special dinner date with friends or your significant other.

We pushed back a bit and they sat us within 20 minutes or so. This isn't a cheap meal, but it is like an elevated sushi experience. The food was really good! We tried the crispy Brussels sprouts(5/5), spicy garlic edamame(SPICY but 5/5) , Denver carpaccio with hot stone(5/5), sashimi pizza(3.5/5), Kyoto dragon roll(4/5), seafood pasta(5/5), tuna crispy rice (5/5), and the rock and roll roll (5/5). The veggies were like the best I've ever had. The Denver carpaccio was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Kyoto dragon roll was good but wish it had more eel/more filling. The rock and roll roll was really tasty. Sushi pizza was interesting but not bad. The mixed berry ice cream they gave for free for my friends birthday was really good too. The drinks were good but strong. There was quite a wait in between our first course of veggies and the rest of our food, but it was worth the wait. The food was really good overall! The staff were friendly and the restaurant is beautiful. I would come back but probably at a less busy time.

Both of our drinks tasted great and were refreshing. The Iced Green Tea also had free refills, which was nice. Next we ordered some appetizers; the Spicy Garlic Edamame (our usual) and the King Crab Bites (to try something new). The Spicy Garlic Edamame was tasty as usual and had a nice kick. My husband wasn't a fan of the King Crab Bites because he thought they could've used more flavor and the texture was off. Lastly, we ordered our entrees; I tried something new and ordered the Pork Curry Katsu while my husband had the Pork Cutlet Ramen (mild spice level). The Pork Curry Katsu was delicious, complex, and full of flavor. The pork katsu was crispy and cooked to perfection, which complemented the curry and rice. My husband enjoyed his Pork Cutlet Ramen as well. His only issue was that it could've used a bit more salt. It is pricey here, but they do give generous entree portions. We were very full and had some leftovers to take home for later. We had a few different servers, and they were all polite and helpful. Our food was brought out quickly, which was also great. The only issue is that the service was a bit spotty and we weren't checked on very often to see if we needed anything (for example, I didn't get any refills). It wasn't too busy either, so I'm not sure why this was the case. The interior was clean and had a casual, slightly lively atmosphere. They have blend of modern and traditional Japanese decor, which gives off a comfy/modern dining experience. There's a decent amount of seating, and you have the option of sitting at the bar or a table. Both options put you in close proximity to other diners, but it's not necessarily a bad thing. They also had different mix of music genres playing in the background. Overall we had a decent experience and plan on stopping by again soon!
