Rolls
Allison W.

Had such a great experience at Opus Sushi in Arcadia! Everything we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. We tried the Deluxe Sashimi, Uni & Toro Bowl, Blue Crab & Uni Bowl, Crunch Roll, and Rainbow Roll, and honestly, it was hard to pick a favorite. The Deluxe Sashimi was incredibly fresh with a great variety of fish, and the Uni & Toro Bowl was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The Blue Crab & Uni Bowl was another standout -- the combination of the sweet blue crab with the uni was delicious. We also tried the Crunch Roll and Rainbow Roll, which were both flavorful and a great addition to the meal. Overall, Opus Sushi is definitely worth checking out if you're in the Arcadia area and looking for quality sushi with generous portions and a great selection. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!

This sushi restaurant has been around for along time and is one of the most fresh sushi restaurants in Arcadia, it has all kind of variations of sushi and is very fresh, love the fresh uni and raw oysters. The service was great and place is very roomy.

Fried Sweet Shrimp Heads
Jeremy L.

5/19/2026 - This is my first time to dine at Opus Sushi, and I am impressed with the quality of many incredibly fresh sushi - see photos for your reference. It is worth noting that the Live Sweet Shrimp (Sashimi) is better than those I had in Tokyo Japan in 10/2025 as well as many sushi restaurants in Los Angeles! The Fried Live Sweet Shrimp Heads are crispy with a great texture on the skin. The Live Wide Santa Barbara Sea Uni are outstanding, they are fresh and sweet without any unpleasant smell - don't miss this golden opportunity to taste this fresh Live Wild Sea Urchin. Sashimi salad is also great with fresh fishes.

This restaurant is so good ! The fish is so fresh. We got the uni which came in the shell and it was buttery and soft. The sweet shrimp was still moving! They fry the head which was crunchy. The Kobe tongue was so tender and flavorful. The bluefin trio was also good. They have lunch special which I want to try next time. They use seasonal high quality fish. The ambience is nice. This is worth visiting !

Fresh Uni
Erika T.

A solid spot! The inside has good amount of seating which a large menu. Came on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. Ordered the sushi and sashimi set which was good. The fish didn't have a fishy taste and was a decent sized cut. I was super full by the end of it. I do wish they could name the type of fish that was given since I was guessing for some of them.

Surviving the SoCal heat wave ? Treat yourself to some high-quality Japanese food to cool down!!! We treated ourselves to an amazing spread at Opus Sushi -highly recommend the live raw shrimp (yes, the head was still moving ), super fresh! Oyster with uni and ikura -- all those luxurious ingredients together Sushi and sashimi set loved the presentation and top-tier quality Also loved their specialty rolls, including the whatever roll and Kobe beef roll -something you don't see everywhere!

Chirashi
Elaine H.

My friend and I came here around 2pm for lunch and there was only one other party. By the time we left, the crowd started to come in. It's a very spacious space with many booths, table, and bar seating. We both ordered the chirashi and it was filling and lots of large pieces of sushi, with the variations of spicy tuna and spicy something else! It was nice to have that variety. We were both very full.

Garlic Edamame (warning: it's spicy and will burn your mouth)
Karina A.

Only come here if you want to be completely ignored by the waiters the entire time. The service was AWFUL! The amount of time we waited for someone to take our order or for someone to bring us the check is unacceptable. I'm writing this still waiting for the check. It's ridiculous. The sushi chef was also not wearing gloves and wiping his nose with his hands then touching the sushi. Disgusting. I ordered the cucumber roll, which was a total scam. They brought out 6 of the tiniest rolls I've ever seen in my life and then charged it $6 ($1 a roll for the SMALLEST rolls I've ever seen). Ridiculous. I'm still hungry and pissed. We also ordered the garlic edamame which came out incredibly spicy even though there was absolutely no warning about that anywhere on the menu.

Vincent L.

The sushi and sashimi set was a great way to sample the menu -- fatty tuna, uni, sea bream, yellowtail, salmon, all well-cut and tasting like they came straight off a boat. We also grabbed the yellowtail jalapeño and salmon carpaccio as starters, both solid choices. The Kobe beef roll was a standout among the maki options. Sake clams and yakitori rounded out the meal nicely without feeling like afterthoughts. Portions were generous and pricing felt fair for what you're getting -- especially since they run free delivery and pickup deals fairly often. Cozy enough for a date but relaxed enough that you're not overthinking it. Would definitely be back for a small group dinner or just a weeknight treat.

I was invited to try Opus Sushi in Arcadia, and it absolutely delivered. They specialize in sea urchin (uni), and you can truly taste the quality and freshness in every bite. We tried the yellowtail jalapeño, salmon carpaccio, live sweet shrimp, Kobe beef tongue, cherry stone clams, multiple rolls, including the Kobe Beef Roll and the fun "Whatever Roll," plus yakitori and shrimp miso soup to finish. The cocktails were also impressive; the yuzu margarita and passion fruit highball were perfect for a date night vibe. If you're looking for a Valentine's Day sushi spot in Arcadia or just one of the best sashimi experiences in the San Gabriel Valley, Opus Sushi is worth the visit.

Insane sushi spread! Everything was so good
Felisha J.

The seafood was incredibly fresh. The live sweet shrimp was the highlight... it was so fresh the shrimp head was still moving! The uni was also rich, creamy, and delicious. Service was friendly, attentive, and made the whole dining experience enjoyable and the place is spacious, clean, and comfortable with plenty of room to dine without feeling crowded. Definitely one of the better sushi spots in Arcadia. I'll be back!

Sushi Deluxe Set: I personally prefer the 10 piece over the 12 piece. The additional two pieces are uni and ikura, and for me they aren't really worth the extra $10. The quality is consistently good, and the negitoro roll surprisingly exceeded my expectations! The set itself is also filling enough for dinner. The closest sushi spot I'd compare it to is Sushi Kisen (for sushi deluxe set not Omakase), and I'd say they're pretty on par in terms of quality. Omakase: Since there aren't many places offering omakase in the immediate area, this is a great option if you want to treat someone for a special occasion without having to venture far. I really liked the diversity of the menu and that the experience wasn't limited to just nigiri. Overall, a really solid neighborhood sushi spot that I've enjoyed enough to keep coming back considering if you don't want to drive far into LA for omakase.

Disappointed in our experience tonight. I have had good experiences here in the past, but tonight…read more(a Tuesday night for dinner) their service was off. They forgot entirely to bring my daughter's drink, did not bring everyone's order out even close to about at the same time (it was a large party of 7) and the server misidentified my meal so I thought they got it wrong. The chicken katsu curry and sushi were ok, but the ramen my daughter got had a strange flavor (we've had a lot of ramen) and my salmon shioyaki was not made the right way. Salmon shioyaki should be salted and grilled or broiled. The cut of salmon was wrong and it didn't taste salted at all, more like a piece of teriyaki salmon with the sauce scraped off. Lesson learned is that it's called Mikomi Sushi, so definitely stick with the sushi if you dine here. The atmosphere is nice with high ceilings and beautiful lighting and everyone working there is nice, I just found the experience disappointing and regretted that I didn't go to another Japanese restaurant.

Izakaya Tonchinkan is a hidden gem. Reservations recommended, even during the work week, but…read moredefinitely on Friday and Saturday nights. The plaza is small but there was a decent amount of parking in the lot. The restaurant has a few tables and mostly bar seating. The bar is where the fun is at. Chef Tatsu and his team of staff were all welcoming and helpful. The other customers here are mostly regulars and all super friendly too. Their menu is on tablets or you can scan a QR code. They seem to use seasonal ingredients and change up their menu often. They had a really impressive variety of sakes. For the drinking munchies they have sushi, starters, cold dishes, hot dishes, grilled dishes, dee fried dishes, donabe rice, and desserts. There were so many items I wanted to try but I had to really narrow it down. I started off with a Hot Tea ($3) but after seeing their incredible sake collection I asked chef for a recommendation. Since I was alone, he recommended the Chiyomusubi ($20/large cup). I'm so glad I got to experience it because the waitress came out with an amazing of sake cups for me to choose from. Love it! These were the items I got to try: Oysters ($24/half dozen) - These were Sugaki Pacific Oyster with ponzu sauce, medium size. The ponzu brings out the sweetness of the oysters. Moriawase ($55) - An assortment of sashimi of the season. Chef let me pick the sashimi I wanted and I asked for the uni, file fish, kanpachi, shima aji, hotate, and kurodai. All fresh and delicious. I especially loved the uni!! There was a generous amount of it! Assortment of Small Appetizers of Chef's Choice ($15) - An assortment that changes depending on your visit. Good item for me eating alone since it gave me a variety in on dish. There was a snail, tuna, chicken salad, and grilled collar. Eihire ($10) - Best decision I made all night. This is a unique grilled stingy ray fin served with an aioli on the side. The sting ray reminds me of a grilled squid but much much better. It was so addicting and delicious. Highly recommended. Giant Clam Sauteed with Butter Soy ($12) - Very good clam, came sauteed with asparagus. The asparagus was a nice green contrast to the butter soy. Grilled Angus Beef Tongue ($22) - Highly recommended by Chef and I must thank him for pointing it out. I love beef tongue, but I missed it while I was browsing the menu. The beef tongue was tender and perfectly cooked. Such an amazing meal. I was really full but that didn't stop me from getting desserts. I couldn't resist their housemade Roasted Green Tea Panna Cotta ($8). I love panna cotta and this was a great execution. Good texture, good flavors, I can really taste the roasted green tea. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu. A great place to dine with friends and share food or dine by yourself and chat up the locals. Thank you Chef and team for a fantastic meal!

We ordered the Assorted Sashimi, Beef Tongue, Salmon and Ikura Rice, and Hojicha Panna Cotta. Our total came out to around $158 for three people. The sashimi was fresh, with the Japanese Mackerel and Scallop being my favorites. The Beef Tongue was good, and the Salmon and Ikura Rice was solid and tasted pretty much as expected. The Hojicha Panna Cotta, though, was amazing and easily the most memorable item of the meal. It was also a lot of food for three people, and we probably could have ordered one less dish. The service and atmosphere were the biggest highlights for me. The staff was immediately welcoming and helpful in explaining the menu and popular items. The owner/chef was also very lighthearted and friendly, and the whole restaurant had a communal, neighborhood feel. Even around closing, everyone seemed relaxed and was enjoying their time together. Overall, the food was good, but I did find it expensive for what we ordered. I'd still come back for the atmosphere, service, and Hojicha Panna Cotta, but I'd be more mindful of how much I order next time.
