Came back again today, and everything was just as good as I remembered. The service was great and the food was consistently delicious. The Oh My God Roll was beautifully presented, very eye-catching, and tasted just as amazing as it looked. Definitely one of the highlights. The Jalapeño Bomb Roll was also a standout. The spicy kick from the jalapeño paired really well with the sauce, making it incredibly flavorful and satisfying. We also tried the yuzu cocktail and the Sea Breeze, and both were refreshing and well-balanced. Perfect drinks to go with sushi. The sushi itself was fresh and flavorful, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients. Always a satisfying experience here. read more

Great spot in Downey! It's located in a plaza so there's plenty of parking, which is super convenient. The restaurant has nice Japanese-inspired decor and a welcoming vibe. I got the premium sushi box, udon, and a crunchy roll. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The staff was also outstanding and very attentive. Definitely coming back! read more

Came in around 4:30 with my brother. The hostess was friendly and the decor was cute, with private little booths. They also have a buy one roll, get one fifty percent off deal that runs all day. That ended up being the best part of the visit. The complimentary edamame was pale and brown, which set the tone. The Crispy Rice appetizer and my green tea were fine. The rolls were the real issue. The Butterfly Roll had soggy tempura and very pale, mushy tuna. The Crunch Scallop Roll tasted like the scallops had been frozen, fried too hard, and cooked in old oil. Even the rice was mushy. When one roll opened up and I saw the texture inside, it threw me off so much that I lost my appetite and felt uneasy afterward, although I cannot tell if it was the food or just my reaction. The place was almost empty, but service was slow. Two different staff members asked how our meal was. When I told the first one it was not great, he just looked sad and walked away. When I shared my concerns with the waitress, she simply slid the check over without offering any solution. It made the check ins feel pointless. It was disappointing to pay for a meal that I could not enjoy. With the freshness issues and the lack of follow through, this spot just missed the mark for me. I would not return. read more

Food has changed so much since I first came here back in 2018. The wait time to get take out is long and the servers/staff are disorganized so you don't get your food unless you ask the sushi chef at the bar for your order. Hostess was on her phone and not very helpful with questions about the menu when I asked about a couple of different roles she didn't know how to answer. The servers/hostess seemed very young and didn't ring our order correctly. We didn't get the sides we planned on paying for and they just threw a bunch of sauces in the bag but none were for my corresponding role. Place has gone downhill and is not a great sushi spot. I don't recommend this if you're a sushi person only if you care about baked or tempura rolls with tons of mayo. The inside infrastructure is the best part about this place giving the booth seating a nice ambience, but besides that this place is worth passing by if going to a decent sushi place feels too far. read more

Best sushi I've ever had I've taken all my friends and family here. The food is always so fresh and yummy.

Visited this place 3x in June 2025 since it was near the work conference I was attending. Went with a group of colleagues and we all ordered different items so we could try multiple things. Everything was good. The staff were also really nice and accommodating. Would go back, would recommend. read more

Place was empty and still wouldn't serve us. It looks like they do not want to work. They said they could only seat us down if party ahead of us got their food. Decided to eat next door at Stinkin Crawfish. We were seated in 2 minutes. Mind you, it was not dinner time yet. read more

I moved to Downey in August and realized I had not had sushi...came here to grab some rolls to go and OMG i will be a regular. Emily was so helpful and guided me based on my preferences and man did she hook me up. No regrets and the place doesn't close all early like the rest of Downey...it is super cute and I will be dining there next time. Maybe onna date lol *universe do your thing* read more

Celebratory sushi night! We were greeted and seated upon entry. Staff was friendly and inside was clean. It was very warm inside so it made the dining area a little uncomfortable but the food was delicious. The burrito roll was a rice less roll and tasted very good. The bento boxes we ordered had terriyaki salmon, 6pc sashimi and beef goyoza. The other bento box, chicken and fried sesame chicken, both came with miso soup, salad and rice. We also ordered mango sake, they accidently brought out pineapple sake first the brought out the correct one. Both were very good. Overall we would come back here again. read more

How to get there: I was coming from South Gate so I just took Firestone all the way down to Brookshire. Service: Our waitress was great! She helped make great food choices and, was even kind enough to make substitutions on our choices due to dietary needs. The only reason it's not a 5 star and you know it's hard to get a 5 from me was the dessert situation. I ordered creme brulee and didn't get that at all. Everything else was fine. read more

The food here is good but the service here is AWFUL, HORRIBLE, SLOW, RUDE, RUSHED. Just overall a tortuous experience.

Do yourself a favor and do not come here. Terrible service, if i could I'll give 0 stars. Girl in the front had terrible attitude. Came in at 9:40, already did last call, place says doesn't close until 11pm. Wanted to give this place a second try after seeing lipstick stain on my glass of water.... I should have Taken a picture but instead I ate my food (after losing my appetite) and gave 20% tip per usual. Obviously this place isn't hygienic. read more

Unfortunately, they're buy one get 1/2 deal does not apply to take out order orders. I had already placed my order so I wasn't going to cancel. I will say the food tasted very good. It was worth the price it is. I would come back and get the same thing again. I like that they make the rules nice and thick so that you're full and not still hungry. And did take a while to come out, but it was worth the wait. They have an inside seating section and they also have an outdoor patio as well. It's located in a small business plaza across the street from Portos. read more

The Food is so good! try out the Jalapeno poppers, only downside is, they do not give you alot of hot sauce, but the tenders are really good and gives you good recommendations, the place looks beautiful and gives a Japanese background along with cool posters like Godzilla and animes, place is bomb read more

What can I say food was honestly sooo good! Surpassed all my expectations!!! The yellow tail might be my new favorite

I used to really enjoy the sashimi salad here, but the quality has gone way downhill over the years. The portions are smaller than they used to be, and instead of fresh cuts of fish, my salad was mostly piled with onions. It completely overpowered the sashimi, which is supposed to be the star of the dish. Honestly, it was disappointing and not worth the price. To go it is $25. I'm sad to say the sashimi salad that used to be my go-to is now something I wouldn't order again. read more

Sooooo good! Well at least what I get lol My wife loves the spicy Ramon But my go to is the Sapporo Roll! You will like if your looking for sushi Usually busy at a comfort level but on weekends might be a longer wait! read more

The main reason why I went here is because they stay open late and I was craving sushi because it's summertime and I don't want to eat anything hot temperature wise. First off, I love the look of inside the restaurant, it's cute! I believe this is a Good choice, so happy I checked this place out. It was clean, the servers were friendly and the food is tasty. In my opinion, the sushi tasted fresh. Another plus, I think it's buy one get one 50% off. I would definitely come back. read more
