Was not accompanied by the waiter each time he would walk up he would service other tables and never asked how we were doing or if we needed a refill etc. There playboy roll tasted like if u were eating a spoonful of mayonnaise wasn't pleasant at all.

Always enjoy going to Kyoto, but especially this location. Our entire family came to celebrate a birthday and it's great that this location has long tables to accommodate around 11 people. The restaurant is clean and well kept. The staff is very friendly and helpful too. It wasn't a busy night when we went , so our orders came out quite quickly. We ordered the Spider Rolls, Yellow tail sushi, calamari, Tonkatsu ramen and bell peppers that are on their appetizer list. Everything we ordered was tasty and fresh. Will definitely come back again. read more

3 stars and 1/2 . Not sure if this place is Korean or actual Japanese sushi place. They don't have soju and any Korean decors. Most of their rolls are spicy. For the price is ok, this one still better than Jin definitely. Service is ok too. The food doesnt have much rice which is good, Korean sushi mostly have more rice. It doesn't look like the complex have lot of parking space. As a local I just gotta try all the sushi places here in Downey. read more

This is legit the definition of a hidden gem. Nothing spectacular, just good food at moderate prices. Its still sushi, but average price sushi. One of many K-Sushi(korean owned sushi spots) in Downey. This was one of our to-go spots for takeout during pandemic time. Food has always been pretty good. From the rolls, to sushi, to edamame. Service is always good, we have not had a bad experience with any of the staff. Place is cozy, but has enough tables to not wait forever. Seating is not bad if you avoid Dinner rush. Again, its not Nobu, but its far form being the worst. Not top of the shelf Fish, but usually pretty fresh IMO. read more

My experience with Kyoto Sushi back on the evening of 8/15/20 was surprisingly pleasant. The service was on par. Greeted me as soon as I walked in and explained how to order during the height of COVID-19. A Yelp friend of mine, Franco M., had suggested the "French Kiss roll" ($16.99). A bit pricey, but it's important to me to support our local businesses. The eight-piece French Kiss roll has spicy tuna and eel tempura on the outside, crab mix and fried shrimp on the inside, and eel sauce and spicy mayo for heightened taste. Because my appetite was so low, this is all I ordered. I'd be down for another pickup. It was fresh. Made well. The crew was nice. Free parking in a shared lot of a small strip mall. Maybe next time I'll try the Azteca roll... read more

Giving this place a 2.5 stars... this is not the places it used to be. Before this place was IT! Now, it's just a sushi place. After reading the reviews I decided to give it a try since it's less than a 5 min drive. I was extremely disappointed. Ordered the rainbow roll and tuna sashimi; both were flavorless, smelled weird, & didn't taste fresh. I have this habit of smelling the food prior to eating it, and my sense of smell was right. The food was not fresh. I will NOT be returning. read more

A jewel hidden in Downey. The little restaurant just feels very authentic in Japanese cuisine. There the sushi rolls are really great and fresh. It is made to order and you can even order to go. The service did take its time because of the preparation of the rolls and tempura we ordered. But overall, very quick to take our order and within 20 minutes it was ready. The dodger game was on so expect the dodger games to be live when eating at this establishment. Overall I really recommend this place. It's feel like a hole in the wall but I am dying to go back and try more. Oh and there is sashimi available to those who want uncooked options! read more

Fish tasted SO fresh and it just melted in my mouth. By far the best yellow tail I've ever had and I'm a big sushi girl. The flavors of the rolls were explosive. I couldn't complain and believe me I always complain about food lol. We drove 20 mins and it was all worth it. Definitely, absolutely we will come back. read more

I have to point out the sweet shrimp... it fell apart into 3 separate strings when I tried to eat it. That ruined my appetite unfortunately.

Recent reviewers have described the service as rude, unhelpful, and accompanied by a poor attitude. One reviewer described the service as "awful, horrible, rude service," while another said the woman at the front had a "terrible attitude." Another recent reviewer described the host as rude after being told to wait outside in the rain and wind, and another specifically mentioned that the hostess was not helpful when they had questions. Unfortunately, this makes my experience seem much less like an isolated incident and more like a recurring customer-service problem. My own experience involved someone at the front who was unnecessarily difficult, unwilling to help with basic questions or alternatives, and ultimately refused service when I asked to speak with management. What is even more concerning is that I subsequently tried multiple times to reach management about what happened and did not receive a return call. When several recent customers are independently describing similar experiences with front-of-house staff, I would expect management or ownership to take those complaints seriously. Based on my experience and the pattern reflected in other recent reviews, I cannot recommend this restaurant. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere that values its customers and treats them with basic courtesy and respect.

Sorry if this doesn't site well with regular customers who rated this as a 4 or 5, I have no idea why. I just started working in the Norwalk area and wanted to have sushi on the way home, I choose Kyoto because it was the top of the list and rated a 4, so HOW BAD COULD IT BE (?) terrible. Overpriced rolls $13 average, then Soft Shell Crab that was breaded and deep fried which even smelled of BAD fish, the Yellow tail was not a clear white color but rather Grey, the Azteca Rolls was the only thing that was decent. As for the service, after you get over the getto strip mall, beside the cheif's POOR attitude when you asked for something, his food was the worst. Let me share with you why I think this, I have had Japanese and Korean customers for 30 years and have eatin in some of the best Sushi Bars in Asia and North America, Kyoto's is overpriced and NOT FRESH, $5.50 for Hamachi, $10.00 for Sweet Shrimp, $9.75 for Uni, $10 for Soft Shell Crab and a brown fish they called Albacor, I wish I'd ordered the Snaper, at least that looked fresh. I also wish I had read the review by the guy who said he got very ill from the Uni. I do Not recommend it if you want REAL quality Sushi. Go to Ichiban or Tokyo Garden in the area, a guy at work said Ichiban was a great palce, so next time that's the place for me. read more

After trying fresh sushi rolls from Kyoto Sushi, I can confidently say that they've set a new standard for sushi excellence. From the first bite, it was evident that the ingredients were of the highest quality, delivering an explosion of flavor with each roll. The presentation was equally impressive, with each roll artfully arranged on the plate, showcasing the chef's attention to detail and skill. It was evident that great care went into every aspect of the dining experience, from the ambiance to the service. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff who were knowledgeable about the menu and eager to make recommendations. Every dish arrived promptly and was served with a smile, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. Overall, my experience at Kyoto Sushi exceeded all expectations. It's clear that the chefs and staff are passionate about delivering exceptional sushi and an unforgettable dining experience. I can't wait to return read more

Their service was so slow it was like I had to beg my server to come take my order,find out if the rolls were ready, for refills and the check. And it's not like it was a busy night either just my party of two and two other tables plus the two servers both females were just standing around fiddling with their thumbs. It might as well be a self service sushi restaurant. read more

for a sushi place that looks like a dive joint from the outside, it is probably the best sushi I've had (aside from Nobu). It isn't over priced and it's a great vibe inside...definitely try it if you are in Downey read more

Their miso soup is some of the best we have had and we love their platters when we are with friends. They have wonderful starters and we sometimes order a bunch and skip the mains. Their baked green mussels are not like any I have had before. Their deep fried gyoza is amazing. Their salmon collar and oysters on the half shell are ever so tasty. So go there.

Staff was nice, not super attentive. Wondering why they named this place Izakaya if all they really sell are generic rolls and teriyaki... anyway back to the rating. We ordered several rolls, sashimi, and couple apps. The Edamame was weird. While traditionally steamed and tossed, or fried and tossed with garlic n chilies, these were.... Wet? Like swimming in some type of sauce. Sauce was tasty, but it was so weird to look at. Rolls were very underwhelming. Nothing popped, nothing hit you making you come back for another bite. Family did not enjoy it, would rather return to Kyoto across the street or Jin down the street. Just saying.

I figured it was smart since it could be a great lunch place for all the nearby employees. Yes, parking I totally see can be a pain in the ass. There's a couple spots in front with two hour parking. If they're taken you're kind of screwed, or maybe they're screwed because most people won't want the hassle. I got a spot out front. Inside, the restaurant is clean. The server was very nice. The menu has some great options while not being toooo big and overwhelming. I ordered Emely Roll and Dodger Roll. They were both so pretty, fresh and good! I was really pleased. I asked about parking and I was told that after the car wash closes at 5 you can use all that space to park behind the building. I recommend the place! I've been to a LOT of sushi places and I liked it here.

The parking situation is a little awkward since they share a parking lot with a car wash but there was plenty of parking when I went so not an issue. The location is interesting but our waitress was super helpful. Glad I had the experience here.

Beyond the great food, the hospitality here is what truly sets it apart. The owner is constantly smiling, checking in, and making sure everyone feels genuinely welcome from the moment they walk through the door. Bell Gardens has a gem with this spot.

All I can say is wow!!!!! I'm blown away!…read more I was having a rough day and thought about how much sushi makes me happy. So rather than sit in my emotions and amp my anxiety up, I opted to treat myself with something that makes me happy. I'm doing low carb, but splurged on one roll bc, why not? Might as well eat what makes you happy right? I was driving around and came across this establishment on Yelp. Decided to pop in and give it a try. Wow! This sushi spot exceeded all of my expectations. The size of the location was exactly what I was wanting, small and intimate. The place was very very clean and they had just enough seating. The sushi rolls, holy cow! They were so good! I bought the fresh roll which was a no rice roll and a spicy rainbow roll. The size of both were amazing! And the price, very affordable which is so incredible for our trying economic times. My rolls came with miso soup and I couldn't have been more thankful. I really wanted it, but actually forgot to order it. The service was great. The associate was patient as it was my first time. The menu was very easy to read. I seriously am so grateful for finding sushi n go. My anxiety is gone, I'm very happy, and I can't wait to come back and try more of your amazing rolls. Thank you so much! See you soon!

We definitely didn't expect the food to be so great! We've been here about 4 times now and their food is consistently delicious. My order is always their Yakimechi bowl. Which is their version of fried rice with squash, carrots, shrimp, beef & chicken. They top it with cream cheese, crab, avocado, eel sauce & sesame seeds. HIGHLY recommend this dish! We've also tried some of their sushi rolls and all have been tasty. Today we tried their Masago Sinaloense which has crab inside and is topped with shrimp, spicy mayo, eel sauce, sriracha & sesame seeds. Their Culiacan Roll is one of our favorites! Besides really great fried rice and sushi, their birria is one of our favorites. My toddler absolutely loves their tacos de birria con consomé. They are not stingy with the birria either! Very filling portions. Their micheaguas are super refreshing too. Now, as far as the service and the vibe, this restaurant has to be one of the most wholesome spots in Lynwood. The restaurant is ran by a family and we met the dad on our first visit. He told us he opened the restaurant and his kids help out. Everyone we've met is super friendly, attentive, and welcoming. This helps them a lot because the wait time is veeerrrryy long...30min+ sometimes. We ordered in advance this time and when we arrived, our food was ready. I do recommend dining in the first time because they have great food presentation BUT fair warning that it will be a bit of a wait. It's worth it though. After that, call in your order and just pick up or eat there like we did. They have a great outside area with plenty of seats and shade. They also have TV's all around now (guessing bc of the World Cup?) but this was a great addition. Overall, this is a great lil hidden spot in South Gate/Lynwood area. Would absolutely recommend!
