    Solid sushi spot tucked away. Make sure you try this spot. Itll end up becoming your go to. The food is always fresh. The service is quick and friendly. Drinks and cold and the ambiance is great. Been going here for over a years now and it never disappoints.

    Happy hour crunch roll

    I found this place and let me tell you it's a hidden gem. I was at work and didn't know what to eat for lunch. Their happy hour caught my attention when I saw them on yelp, and I wanted to try this place out. The food was 10/10. The service was fairly quickly as I came during lunch time. I was seated right away, and since I was looking at the menu I already knew what I wanted! I got the California crunch roll 4pcs & the happy hour crunch roll. Can't forget my strawberry lemonade. The place has a very modern style with the wood and red lanterns. Reminds me of a classic Japanese restaurant. The paintings on the wall were absolutely beautiful. I will definitely come again.

    Never disappoints. Everything is fresh, and the atmosphere is inviting. Great service, fair prices, they don't skimp on the fillings.

    We went in on a random week night. We were quickly greeted and seated which was a plus. This was our first time eating here, so we thumbed through their menu and chose a few items to sample. The interior was clean and there was quite a bit of seating for being such a small space. We also ordered Thai iced tea, which was sad and disappointing. The flavor was odd, maybe old? The food started coming out and it looked really good. Sadly, the food was just overall not great. Everything was fresh, but lacked flavor and their oil gave everything a weird almost rancid flavor. The entire meal was disappointing, except for the spicy tuna. That was the only thing that was actually really good. The waitress was extremely attentive, and cleared things quickly as we finished. So definitely 5 star for service and the speed in which we were served, but we came to eat and the food left a lot to be desired. The egg rolls were also a weird mushy gummy texture, combined with the old oil taste, I couldn't even get past one bite. I probably wouldn't choose to come here again, but if someone else wanted to dine here I might come and just grab a sushi roll since that was the only thing we ordered that was actually good.

    LOVE IT!! Food was SO good! Service was excellent, I felt like I was being treated like a king. Waiters/waitresses were so nice. Restaurant was clean. Highly recommend eating here.

    Salmon & Avocado Maki Cut Roll
    Christy R.

    If you need to place to hang out and have good energy vibes and ambience is a place. The food is always great. The sushi is always fresh. I always get the avocado appetizer and the baked salmon rolls along with the TNT, which is baked with scallops and salmon. Everything is great, service is generally fast here if you are a local in Whittier, this place isa must try!

You park on the street the ally or next block and find out the address is in an alleyway. This place has been a family run mamasan old style old fashioned old school traditional iconic Japanese 70s art deco. A menu that is probably as old as the place. Prices that are soo below market. The menu pix are wrong prices up a whole buck. Full dinners starting at 13.95. Portions follow the pricing but the food is nostsolgic. I'm 70 years old remember the old days...the original Tokyo Lobby off San Gabriel blvd. The small but mighty creator made famous Japanese BOAT Eisaku restaurant rip Buena park. This review turns out to be a trip down memory lane. This place has probably created quite a few memories over the years. I recommend this place Senior friendly date friendly menu is very kid friendly. Not recommending for special occassions but every time you have a yen for some good old fashioned terryaki and tenpura hit this place. I'd be a regular but live over an hour away in the South bay where the traditions we grew up on are no more... Harrys gone Daisuki noodles gone Aloha terriyaki gone Teri Hawaii with original shaved ice closed. Eating at this place stirred up some old memories. I recommend this place for its longevity old school charm friendly service and good old fashioned comfort food. Easy on the wallet.

Their kindness and great conversation made our dinner even more enjoyable. Our family left with full hearts and happy tummies. We'll absolutely be back, as we always are. Thank you to the entire team for your continued hospitality and for making every visit feel special.

Definitely a solid option if you're looking for good sushi at an affordable price with great service!

    SUCH A FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT & AMAZING FOOD!…read more 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! :)

    My husband and I have been to this restaurant a handful of times, and we stopped by recently…read more We started off by ordering our drinks; I ordered Iced Green Tea while my husband had a Sapporo Beer. 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!

    This review is based solely on the food and service not the social media hype…read more I've lived in Whittier my entire life, and this was only my third visit to ANB. My wife was the one who actually reminded me of this place we were debating what to have for lunch & after seeing all the buzz online we decided to grab some. First, if you've never been, it's a small spot with only a few tables. It's really more of a grab-your-food-and-go type of place than somewhere you'd plan to sit down and dine. I ordered the bento combo. The beef and chicken were cooked well and seasoned lightly, which I appreciated. The rice was on the mushy side, likely because of the volume they're producing. The California roll was warm and soft from the freshly cooked rice not my preference. The tempura, miso soup, and gyoza were all decent, but nothing that stood out. My wife ordered the veggie and chicken bowl. The portions were generous, but overall it was another solid meal that didn't really separate itself from similar restaurants. What surprised me most was how much of the restaurant's popularity seems to come from social media. It definitely attracts a younger crowd, and the online hype has made it a destination. But if you judge it strictly on the food, I think it's good not amazing. One thing I would encourage them to improve is hospitality. Don't be stingy with condiments, make sure you add the proper amount of utensils and when customers ask for a little extra, make them feel welcome. Those small interactions leave a lasting impression and build loyal customers. Overall, I can see why it's busy, but for me the hype exceeded the food. If you're expecting a viral, life-changing meal, you may leave wondering what all the excitement was about. If you're looking for a quick, decent meal to grab and go, it'll do the job.
