Sushi Joint rocks! It's a good value, and most of what I tried was very good. There is ample parking on site. The service is fast, friendly and attentive. I ordered a Chef's Bento Box and it was so much food! Everything on my plate was good, except I felt the teriyaki chicken was too dry and the miso soup lacked depth. Other than those two misses, the food was delicious. The sushi tasted fresh- I especially liked the presentation of the tuna, it looked like little rosettes. The tempura battered vegetables were perfect and was marvelous with the ponzu sauce. Overall Sushi Joint is an excellent value and a charming neighborhood restaurant. I'd definitely comeback next time I visit this area.
Happen to drive by this sushi restaurant near our house and due to this decided to give it a try. We will normally drive out to Torrance area for sushi. I was pleasantly impressed with the taste and quality of their sushi. It's not the highest quality but for the price, it was very good. Service was great and friendly. If you live in the area I recommend to give this place a try.
We came by to Sushi Joint in Norwalk to relive some great memories. We used to come to Sushi Joint back in Glendale many times for great happy hour deals and date nights. The staff and chefs were always fun and personable. But unfortunately that location closed years ago per the staff. This was our first time at the Norwalk location and we came for the Mon-Thursday 5pm-7pm. The apps, cut rolls and specialty rolls range from $5-$12!! Such a great deal in today's time. The location has its own parking out with 10+ spots, but street parking is available as well. We came in and were seated quickly. We noticed one of the servers was the same from the Glendale one. The interior decor is vibrant with neon lights and pictures and Japanese themed lanterns. There's a sushi bar and many tables for customers. We ordered off the Weekday Special & one roll from the regular menu. We spoke to the staff about how much we always visited their first location and how we remembered her from years ago. Which was a pleasant interaction for us all. :) We ordered: -Norwalk Roll -Rainbow Roll -Sashimi (4 pc) Mixed -Shishito Tempura -Blue Crab Cut (from regular menu) -Shrimp Tempura Cut The portion sizes of the cut rolls are huge. The quality of the fish was fresh. The sashimi size was abundant. The presentations of the rolls are as vibrant and delicious as we remember. As far as the taste. Great Still very good! We had so much sushi at a great price. We left smiling and happy because Sushi Joint was a memorable place for us. Total bill during special hour menu was $56 before tax. To our surprise, our server gave us some complimentary mochi ice cream. :D Thank you to the Sushi Joint staff for a great visit after all these years. We would happily make time to come to Norwalk just to have a great meal again from Sushi Joint again as they have always taken care of us and treated us like family. ( ^_^)b
The staff was friendly and the service was great. Overall, they offer a good quantity and quality of food. Their lunch specialties were affordable and tasty. I liked the interior vibe of the place. It was cozy and interesting.
I've been coming here since they opened. I have not found a sushi spot that surpasses this one. So delicious fresh and the vibe is so homey and chill. I love the service and I recommend this place to everyone I know loves sushi. I
My husband and I stopped by here on a Thursday night to celebrate an anniversary. We used to visit the Glendale location long before it closed, and it was one of our favorite sushi spots. We've never dined at this location before. Man, this brought back so many good memories! We got there just in time for their weekday special which is Monday to Thursday from 5-7pm. We ordered the Shishito Tempura, 4 pc sashimi, the Rainbow Roll, and the Norwalk Roll from that menu. We also ordered the Blue Crab and Shrimp Tempura Cut Roll from the regular menu. The food was how we remembered it, so incredibly delicious and at such an affordable price. The rolls and sashimi pieces weren't small, and I'm not complaining lol. The tempura was well-cooked, not soggy, and perfectly crunchy. The shrimp's sweetness came through and the veggies balanced the dish well. I couldn't taste the blue crab right away because of the sauce, but it was still delicious nonetheless. The Rainbow Roll is your standard roll. I like consuming a roll that doesn't necessarily need soy sauce to make it taste better. The Norwalk Roll was called the Glendy Roll from the other location. It's tuna, green onion, sweet sauce, and chili oil on the outside with shrimp tempura and avocado on the inside. It tasted exactly the same. I loved the contrasting textures of the softness of the tuna and the crunchiness of the tempura. Whatever they're using in their sweet sauce will make you want another bite. This roll made me smile the most as I was reminiscing about the happy memories from before. I was glad to make a new one at this location. Their service was excellent. We were greeted as we entered and seated in less than 5 minutes. We didn't have to wait long for our food. Our server checked on us periodically and we also chatted with one of them who used to work at the Glendale location. She was just as kind as we remembered - she even gave us mochi ice cream on the house as we were paying for our bill (thank you so much!). The interior was clean and nicely decorated. They also have many tables for their guests. It's a good spot for a solo date or with a group. The parking lot is limited as this restaurant is a stand-alone establishment. Thank you, Sushi Joint, for the wonderful experience! We left with our bellies full and happy. We are definitely coming back here.
We went in on a Sunday at 2pm and ordered two special rolls and an appetizer of the baked green mussels. The food was delicious and the fish was fresh! The mussels were not fishy whatsoever and were big. The rolls were delicious and flavorful. There are a lot of options on the menu. They have a lunch special menu, bento options, sashimi, sushi, hand rolls, cut rolls, the works!! The service was nice as well as the servers were friendly and attentive. The food came out very quick. The restaurant was clean, had very cute decorations, and had its own parking lot. 10/10 would come again!
Great sushi great service nice friendly atmosphere my favorite is the spicy edamame and lobster roll
It's been 6 years since I've been back and I've really liked how they've decorated the place. Service was good and for lunch time there was a good amount of people. They have a lunch portion/special along with many other specialty items that are posted around the restaurant. So keep an eye for those items. It's neat that they serve fresh wasabi here so that was a plus. Portion sizes are good, I'd come back again!
Dont sleep on this little "Sushi Joint" in Norwalk. This is not your typical korean Sushi spot, its fresh and has tons of flavor. Their rolls come in different sauces and oils. My go-tos are the Super Rainbow & Mango Tango roll. Sushi & Sashimi are also fresh. Had their Uni while back, it was not bad at all. Staff is friendly, and always have the Millenial play list on blast. They have a BOGO half off, and a happy hour menu with discounted appetizers and small dishes.
On a work trip and wanted some sushi for lunch. Found this spot that was close to the office. Casual spot, great service, & very yummy!
Love the sushi here Prices are reasonable too Promo buy one get one 50% off Cant go wrong with any sushi you get

Great food, great staff, and easy parking! There was a homeless man immediately out front, but once you're inside everything is so easy and clean. The waitress was quick, and so was the kitchen. Would definitely recommend the kungfu panda and dragon roll. Just so simple and yummy. read more

I live like 10 minutes from here and have passed this place many times and never even noticed it, until today and im quite upset I didn't pay attention sooner. It's a medium- small restaurant very cozy feeling to it. Nice ambience to doesn't get too rowdy. My salmon had a perfect crisp on it. The sauce on top was sweet and savory. I tried a eel roll here and it was a great introduction. They were very attentive here on a Friday afternoon. read more

UPDATED REVIEW 5/5 How I miss dining in at Sushi Joint. I miss sitting at the bar, chatting with the chef and eating great food. Sushi Joint is currently only open for takeout! Please support small businesses and give them a try. I love the quality of their fish and food. I can only comment on their sushi rolls and all of them have been superb. We always like to mix things up and order a specialty roll with a few of their cut rolls. Even after months, the consistency of the flavor is there. You can't go wrong with anything you order here. Everything is packaged with care and the owners really appreciate you coming in to order from them during these times. read more

We used to frequent the Fullerton location a bunch, but unfortunately after Covid they closed. My wife used to be a vegetarian and still does not eat seafood, but their rolls that include veggies and tofu and mango are unlike any other sushi spot I know of. It allows us to eat together at a sushi restaurant. I've even eaten them before and they are super unique and delicious. The rest of the menu is great as well. Their iced Thai tea is also very good. Looking forward to coming here many more times, it's worth the extra 20 minute drive for us. read more

Good food, good price, good service. I would come back again. Music is hip and has a very friendly ambiance. Very good flavor in all my dishes, although my sushi wasn't cut in same proportions and my happy crabby didn't have enough jalapeño slices for each bite of crab mix. read more

This sushi spot gets 2 stars for unnecessary charges. I understand food prices are inflated right now, but 15% dine-in service charge?! I have never heard of that. Don't get me wrong my roll (Norwalk) was delicious, but the portion was small. They also charge $1 for each sauce you order as well. I was very confused if I was dining in Malibu or in Norwalk! Based on my experience, it was not worth it and I unfortunately will not be returning here. read more

We've ordered from this place close to 10 times since April. I am SO bummed I can't go dine in-person. Every bite has been the freshest, highest quality fish. There are dozens of options, and their chef has created some truly masterful combinations of flavor, pleasing aesthetics, and just overall bang for your buck. The lunch and dinner combo's are a great option for traditional sushi/sashimi lovers. Adventurous eaters won't lack for options, ever. The specialty rolls are uniquely created down to the sauces that somehow perfectly accent the rolls. Spicy lovers, seek the Dark Angel or the Spicy yellowtail sashimi. Unlike almost every sushi place I've ever been too, these people understand what the word spicy means. I need to take a second to talk about the New Guy roll. It's amazing. It is heavily influenced by Thai flavors. It is a party in your mouth. Unless you're allergic to peanuts, you will not regret this one. Other favorites include the Super Mario, Geisha, and the Salmon Aburi, which will make you want to dance it's so freaking good. And again, every roll comes with a specialized dipping sauce to compliment and take every bite over the top. The bento and teriyaki have been a smash hit with our kids. The tempura veggies and shrimp are excellent and come with a light and delicious tempura sauce. Wow, you made it to the bottom of my review. Go order some sushi. read more

Atmosphere was more like a bar vs a sushi restaurant. The food was ok, nothing different than other sushi places. The hype on social media was much more than it actually was. read more

Yes. They have teriyaki chicken plates along with other food with no nori
