    This is my third time here and I absolutely love this place. I got the nigiri sushi combo and it was so fresh and delicious. I came with a bigger party but we were seated very quickly and the waitress was so funny and nice and even took a photo for us. The food came out quickly and the interior is very cozy and nice.

    I am a Pomona native and finally tried this GEM out and let me say it was THE BEST i have ever had. Came on a Sunday night and my partner and i were the only two in there, felt like we were in V.I.P.!!! I've never had a baked salmon hand roll before and it was delicious. From being skeptical of this little spot, it is now at the top of my list. I loved the small mom and pop shop and the sweet host, she made sure all of our questions were answered!

    Clean and bright family owned sushi shop on Mission in Pomona. The staff is very friendly and kind. Reasonably priced combo meals with miso soup and salad. We ordered the pork katsu and the sushi combo #4 with 3 salmon sushi and 6 pcs spicy tuna roll. I appreciated the salad was mixed greens rather than iceberg lettuce, with refreshing ginger dressing. The miso soup was hot and not too salty. The sushi was very fresh, as was the wasabi. The pork katsu was a generous portion, and could've used a little more sauce. Overall a pleasant dining experience!

    Great deal

    Great food and great value. Really enjoyed the crunchy rolls and my kids love the california rolls

    Always great food, love coming here at least once a month minimum. Prices are always cheap, food is made fresh, and the owners are always happy to be here. Highly recommended coming here if you haven't already, the combo #3 is my favorite along with a Thai tea. 10/10

    Super cute local mom and pops sushi spot! Came here for dinner one night and it was very pleasant. The whole place was super adorable. Our sever was nice and attentive. We ordered 2 of the combos to share and one of the rolls. The menu is very simple and has all the standard sushi items. The combos are great deals. We go A and B. Portion size is pretty good and the ingredients is fresh, the quality of the fish is an average cut. Easy no frills, reasonably priced meal. Parking was very easy in the adjacent lot.

    We finally went in! Don't let the outside scare you away. You walk in and it's like another land. We always pass by and after the encouraging reviews on yelp we went it. Oh looked so clean, and inviting. Our server was such a graceful lovely patient lady. She even explained the food as she brought it out. Prices are not bad.i fell in love with the green mussels. My son liked his veggie egg rolls. Miso soup was good. My husband loved all the sushi he ordered. We added pork belly dish. She said it's spicy, not at all. It was perfect heat ratio. Geez so worth $18. Cooked fresh!! I would say the only thing that bothered me was they use alot of green onions on everything. But we will definitely be back, to try more items.

    Was craving sushi and found this cute mom and pop place to try. Got the combo 2 ($15) which came with miso soup, salad, spicy tuna roll, salmon skin hand roll, and 3 pieces of nigiri. The roll and nigiri were fresh and had a great rice to sushi ratio. The salmon skin hand roll was my favorite! It was crunchy, flavorful, and packed with fish and other veggies. So happy to have found an affordable and delicious place for sushi near home.

    A hidden gem in Pomona honestly. Come here when you are craving some family owned sushi or you just want to enjoy a nice miso soup. The stuff we had today we Spicy edamame Black sesame poppy seed salad Combination 2 (California roll, spicy Tuna, spicy crunchy tuna) Mother roll ( baked lobster with eel sauce !) Paid a little over $25, and I would pay more for the level of service I receive here. Helping local businesses that have GREAT food is always a plus right ? Slide through ! You can also order over the phone :-)

    Omg how cute is this place? My fiancé and I were looking for a sushi place by my house, which is really hard to find a good one in Pomona, and found this spot. At first I wasn't so sure bcus it was located in the corner and it was dark at the time. But you should never judge a book by its cover! So glad we gave it a shot. This place looks to be owned but a family, and they are so sweet and attentive. We ordered way too much but finished it all bcus it was so yummmm!! The sushi tasted so clean and fresh. This is def #1 for Pomona.

    The sushi was fresh the service was fast , the lady that took my order was super sweet,

    Our Full Meal salmon teriyaki kimchi fried rice spicy tuna roll oyster shooter
    Adrian G.

    Yesterday, I had the pleasure to try a fish spot that has been under my radar for a few months. My partner raves about this place so I thought it was finally time to give it a try. Initial impressions are as follows: - small yet ample parking - interesting purple building - beautiful indoor area, seating and overall atmosphere. The main lady that runs the space was very kind, welcoming and patient as we flipped through their cute photo album menu. I ordered the kimchi fried rice without pork, a spicy tuna roll and an oyster shooter. The oyster shooter was first. The smell was fresh like the salty Pacific. The Roll was fascinatingly spicy. The kimchi fried rice... it was spicy, tangy, ferment-y-- all the yummy goodness to be expected. Safe to say, this is my new Japanese seafood cuisine spot. SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS!!

Parking is okay but there are some days you will need to drive around for a bit. Usually, there is at least a 30-45 minute wait to be seated, but we lucked out this chilly Monday night. Still crowded though! The restaurant is quaint. Nothing spectacular but clean. Seating is not too close to others. The service has been consistently good to very good. Friendly and quick. If you do need additional items, you will need to waive someone down. The food comes out hot and fresh! Seafood tofu: Sizzling hot. Great flavor. Nice amount of umami and spice. Filled with tofu. Wish there were a bit more seafood. At least clams. Galbi: Excellent balance of flavor! Not drenched in sauce and very tender. Would be great if the bed of onions were cooked a bit more! Great condiment with the rice. Japchae: Was a lil overcooked but tastes great. Wished there was more meat. Bibmibap is always a winner. Great texture and fresh tasting. Sauce has a perfect amount of kick and mixture of spice and sweet. Spicy cold noodle odke. Huge! Fresh veggies and the buckwheat noodles were cooked perfectly! Condiments and rice were spot on! So happy we came back.

Picked up a few items to go for lunch today and I was both surprised and disappointed at how bad the food was. The sullungtang was very greasy and the color was off, a dark brown. The beef was not trimmed properly, so half was just fat. To be frank, it was disgusting. There were bits and pieces of fat floating in the soup. The donkatsu went in the trash after a few bites. It was obviously reheated. The breading was more like that of a chicken tender and not that of donkatsu. The darkness of the outer cut portions (the pork) the katsu is obvious indication of reheating rather than fresh. I don't know if there is a new cook, new owner, or worst case they are serving subpar food from previous day. Maybe one or none of the above. This is one of the few times I've thrown away the majority of the food I purchased for take out from any restaurant. My background is in f&b and hospitality management so I would not give this type of review, especially to a small business unless there was a legitimate reason. While I respect the amount of work and dedication it takes to run a restaurant, there is a responsibility to provide customers with a quality product that aligns with the menu pricing. Beyond the product, ruining someone's lunch break is a sure fire way to lose an existing customer. I will not be returning to this restaurant.

We also have a family member with diabetes, so we pay close attention to food quality and ingredients. That made this restaurant even more enjoyable for us.
