The service here was exceptional from start to finish, and the restaurant itself was very clean and well maintained. Always a big plus when you walk into a sushi spot and immediately notice how fresh and inviting everything looks. The rolls tasted super fresh, and the sushi overall was really good, especially considering how affordable the prices are. They also have a monthly special as well as weekday specials, which makes this spot even more worth checking out. Definitely a solid option if you're looking for good sushi at an affordable price with great service! read more

SUCH A FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT & AMAZING FOOD! Food: 5/5 I really enjoyed the food! I have heard from plenty of Montebello locals that the food is great! I took my little butt down there and it's safe to say everyone was right! I absolutely loved their "paradise roll" and the shrimp and veggie tempura! I did order the "Spicy edamame" and it was probably the only thing that wasn't my favorite, but still good. I wish the sauce was a bit spicier and saltier? Haha. Service: 6/5 The employees seemed so happy, nice, and actually enjoyed their work environment, which is so nice to see. Pricing: 5/5 The pricing is pretty great and I love that you can eat sushi at an affordable price that actually tastes amazing. I spent about 30.00 and I'd say at other places it would have been about $10-11.00 more. All around: 6/5 I will be back! :) read more

I ordered the ... what is it...fresh roll? The one with the different colored fish on top? Also had the mussels. Truth be told, for me, it was alright. The roll didn't taste super fresh. Seasoning on the rice and imitation krab meat was so-so. The mussels were good. The restaurant is okay. It's kind of big, actually. Yeah! I wish I had better things to say but for me, I couldn't make sense of the hype. It's an average, 6.5/10 sushi place. read more

J Sushi Whittier - I forget the name of the roll. It was just okay. - Japanese Near Me - Whittier, California

I love the rainbow roll over here is probably one of my favorites. The quality of the salmon and tuna is just amazing as well. Be sure to get the miso soup with your meal as it is a nice side dish. The service is always amazing and everyone is just friendly when they serve your food. The Crunchyroll is just stellar who knew there was this hidden gem in Whittier. read more

Came by J Sushi for dinner on a tuesday night and it was pretty busy. Our server was super attentive and quick. We had a couple handrails and a cut roll. I was glad i could get the handrails with easy rice but they did seem a bit small. The scallops had fresh flavor but the salmon skin was a little too crispy. The edamame had great spice and lots of garlic. Prices are decent and the service is great. read more

Had a good experience ordering takeout from J Sushi. The service was extremely fast and the staff was very friendly. They add extra sauces upon request and didn't make me feel guilty about it and had a smile on there face the whole time. J Sushi is conveniently located in a town shopping center nearby and earned a repeat customer with their friendly service and fresh fish. I had the Philly roll, fried Philly roll, shrimp tempura, salmon lover roll and hand spider roll. The fried Philly roll was a bit chewy sink do t recommend that one, but everything else was delicious. Their ponzu sauce is especially good! read more

Affordable sushi and rolls done well. With the wife away and me stuck at home studying, it was supposed to be a Shin Ramen Christmas. Blackout said nope, so I took to the streets. Chipotle closed, In-n-Out closed, McDonald's jam-packed. It was looking like generic takeout until I stumbled upon J Sushi. I had some subpar experience with sushi in Whittier, so I wasn't expecting much. Well, Santa gave me an early surprise this year. Yellowtail Handroll - 87 Perfect to whet up your appetite. A little green onion would have gone a long way, but I ain't complaining at $6. Baby Pacific Roll - 83 Can't go wrong with crayfish. Again, it would have been nicer with more crayfish and some other flavors, but solid as is. Philly Handroll - 86 Spicy Tuna Handroll - 73 It's nice that the roll is packed with fish, but the Spicy Tuna itself is very uninspired. Little "Spicy" to be found, just some random soy sauce flavoring. Yellowtail Sashimi - 89 I actually didn't order this, but when I saw the care gone into the cut, I decided to gobble it up anyway. That and I was planning to get the 12 pc Sashimi. Unagi Nigiri - 88 Had a nice sear to it. A tad thin, but again, it's $6. Yellowtail Nigiri - 86 Had some cracks but otherwise fresh and thick cut. The rice was a tad dry, bringing down the score from 92. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised with sushi of this quality and prices that don't gouge the wallet. Looking forward to bringing the wife next time. read more

My favorite local sushi restaurant! FINALLY a reliable delicious sushi place in my neck of the woods!!! They just opened so they were having a few specials which I couldn't resist. I ordered my food to-go and they packed everything PERFECTLY. Like they separated out the sauce, baked scallops/crawfish from the deep fried cali roll so that the deep fried goodness stayed intact! Talk about attention to detail. Golden dragon roll 5/5 - this is basically a baked salmon roll, cali roll with baked salmon on top. The salmon was perfectly cooked and moist. Mild Monkey roll 5/5 - baked scallop and crawfish on top of deep fried cali roll. The deep fried cali roll was perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Omg so good and it traveled very well because of how thoughtful they were about the packaging! Definitely check this place out! you will not regret it! read more

Just had dinner here with my friend. Restaurant is clean, sashimi was fresh, but the service is what made this an amazing experience. Our server,Warren was super attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and gave awesome recommendations. read more

This rating is based on the ramen alone! Ordered a tonkatsu "ramen" and it's the most hideous ramen copycat I have had anywhere in years. And I love ramen. The bowl came displaying a foamy top like they had just blended something into it to make it frothy, it felt slimy. The "shashu" was tough and with fake looking grill marks. The noodles were also completely off. The other parties at my table ordered sushi, it look decent. The veggie tempura was not light and crispy, kind of soggy in some areas. But the ramen ruined my whole experience in this place. Nothing like the J Sushi in orange. They seem to have a lot Business, maybe lack of better places nearby. read more

This place is really good and I think the prices are really good as well. I've only ever got the sushi but I'm sure their other entrees are good as well since it's usually pretty busy in here. They have $6.99 daily special rolls which I like to try sometimes. Mainly I come for the salmon sashimi which I think is really good especially for being in the Whittier area. read more

J Sushi is hands down one of my favorite spots! I've been here a few times now, and they never fail to impress. Their food is always fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. This time, I decided to try the Thursday weekly special--the Double Crunch Roll--and it was incredible! Crispy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. I also ventured out and ordered the Double S Roll, and it did not disappoint. Every bite was a burst of amazing flavors.Love the sauce!!! What truly sets J Sushi apart is their exceptional hospitality. The sushi chef always goes above and beyond--anytime I have a question about the menu or want to customize my roll, they personally come out to clarify and help me create the perfect dish. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their craft. If you're looking for fresh, high-quality sushi at a great price with top-tier service, J Sushi is the place to go! Highly recommend it to anyone who loves sushi! Sorry about my pics i ate my food at home!! read more
