    Shistachi bowl excellent

    Yes it's great and lot of fresh sashimi. I try 2 shirachi bowls both were huge I ll be back

    Louis C.

    Great little restaurant for a quick bite of sashimi and sushi. The proprietor was super friendly and accommodating. The venue is clean and airy. We tried a number of items and everything was great. The shrimp and pork katsu were both nice and crunchy. The seafood was all super fresh. The quality of the food is on par with premium Japanese restaurants but at a much more affordable prices. I'd definitely be back for more.

    Karage appetizer, dragon bowl with eel and two shrimp tempura with miso soup

    Quality of food and service are excellent. We have ordered chirashi in the past, which we also enjoyed and tonight my son asked for the karage appetizer (though he likes it with his siracha spicy mayo..) and the eel tempura bowl.. portions are generous and always a hit!

    Tuna tataki bowl
    Stephanie C.

    Bop kitchen was awesome! My tuna tataki bowl was fresh and delicious, as was the salmon skin salad. The service was so nice and friendly too! Would definitely stop by again for a healthy and delicious meal!

    Good food and very friendly staff. The bowl I ordered was good but I wouldn't say it's anything special. Raw fish with rice and good sauce. The worker was very nice and gave us thorough explanations of each dish, with suggestions on how to eat them.

    One of my favorite spots to go around this area. Since I work close I stop by couple of times per week. Fish is always fresh and prices are good! Portions always are good size My favorites rainbow poke , chips with spicy tuna and tuna crispy rice

    Drove by and found this tiny little spot serving up some amazing food. The menu offers so many options. I ordered the bulgogi bowl and it did not disappoint. Definitely recommend this place

    Dragon don and premium chirashi don
    Christiana K.

    This place is SO so good!! As a lover of sushi and chirashi, I can say this is some of the best I have ever had. The pieces are super duper thick and the quality is amazing. This is a great spot for takeaway if you're craving some quality sashimi and their other options. You definitely don't want to go somewhere with low quality seafood and risk getting sick. Also in a great location. Staff is very friendly. Will definitely come back for more!

    So glad we found this place! My boyfriend and I were in the Melrose place looking for something to eat and we came across the Bop. We ordered for pickup and got the salmon ikura don and bara chirashi don. Both bowls were way bigger than we expected! The fish was super fresh and had a generous amount. The prices were fair for the amount you get as well! The bowls were pretty big so I could only finish half and saved the rest. Great place for some delicious sushi!

    SOY happy that I discovered @the_bop_on_3rd It's rare that I find a sushi place that I'm impressed with, and I loved how The Bop has some of the freshest sashimi in town while at incredibly affordable prices (especially for LA!) They definitely didn't skimp on the quality, quantity and authenticity of their bowls, and I would highly recommend checking out both their cooked Korean/Japanese sushi bowls. Featured here: Bara Chirashi ($24.90): absolutely loaded with salmon, tuna, albacore, ikura, shrimp and tamago! Highly recommend if you're looking for a fresh sashimi bowl without the sauces typically found in poke. Beef bulgogi bowl($19.50 buy one get one free on UberEats): really impressed with how well packaged it came, and how they have a generous portion of beef. I thought the beef could be a bit more tender/have a stronger flavor, but it's definitely authentic! Also comes with complimentary miso soup and salad

    Kimchi Fried Rice
    Denise L.

    Stumbled upon The Bop while washing my rugs across the street at a laundry mat. Asian food is one of my favorite genres of food, so I set to give The Bop a try. What stood out to me was that this place is a fusion of Japanese and Korean! The menu offered a variety of choices. I ordered the kimchi fried rice. Boy, I was in for a treat!!! The kimchi was spicy just at the right level! The amount of kimchi in the fried rice was perfect. The seasonings, green onions, and seaweed is also on par with the total eating experience of the kimchi fried rice. The store is mainly a small "order to go" brick and mortar. There are only two tables, so don't expect to have a dine in experience like a regular restaurant. Make sure you order your food to eat elsewhere. I appreciate the person I ordered from explaining to me about the place not being a regular sit in place to eat. So take note if you come to The Bop to get food. The Bop is a pleasant surprise for sure!!!! I am definitely going to go back to try some other items they have to offer!!!

    As I was driving around, I was looking for something to eat. I came upon this place and wanted to try it out. Since I was craving a poke bowl, I saw that they had a Chirashi Bowl. So, I ordered the bowl with regular white rice. For $27-, the Chirashi Bowl filled me up. Also, it came with miso soup and a free soda with a Yelp Check-in. Plus, I got a tip on how to eat the fish which I appreciated.

    The Bop is a small shop located near Melrose street. They specialize in Japanese and Korean rice bowls. The shop is bright with an orange and white color palette. There's no restroom and parking is a bit hard to find. There's a few areas to sit in front. The staff was super helpful which was nice. Overall, ambiance was fine and the service was nice. Food We ordered the chirashi bowl and the spicy pork belly bowl. All bowls are $16-$22. They also came with a salad and miso soup. The bowls were pretty large portions and the pieces of fish were big in the chirashi bowl. The spicy pork belly bowl had the meat and rice split up which was nice. The food was pretty good but there was a lot of rice. Overall, the food is worth the price. Overall The ambiance: 4.5/5 The food: 4.5/5 The price: $$

    I'm such a fan of chicken ramens lately. Torisoba Tonsho has various options aside from ramen, but…read moretheir chicken paitan really hits for me. All the chicken they use in every dish was just so darn plump and flavorful. Excellent quality all around. My friend and I shared the chicken karage which was huge, plump pieces in a crisp deep frying. How that stayed so crisp and fresh for a delivery is beyond me but I absolutely loved it. We also had the chicken gyoza which they give a nice char on the outside from being pan fried. I liked this difference from other places but aside from the frying, it was fairly standard. Get the karage if you want a side item! Now the ramens are just fabulously rich and creamy in their chicken paitan white broth that goes so nicely with the proteins for a clean but slightly savory taste. Their broth is so light and airy, they give you special instructions for reheating to recreate the emulsion type of effects they use. That's such a nice touch! Their noodles are more wheat-forward and thin than other places but once you accept that, you can lean into the difference nicely. The Lemon Butter had great flavor with just the slightest bit of acidity giving a bit more dimensions to the flavor. Absolutely loved Torisoba Tonsho and can't wait to come back to try more of the menu! It's right across the Largo if you are going for dinner & a show. :)

At 6pm, we were only 1 of 2 parties; by 7:30pm, all the inside & outdoor patio tables were filled except for a couple. A large party made the indoor atmosphere pretty loud, but after they left it was easy to have audible conversation. Several people came in to pick up to go orders while we were there. Service was really warm, food came out so fast & everything was DELISH: Beef bowl - marbled beef cooked w/onions on rice. So tender & flavorful! Spicy tuna bowl - spicy tuna over rice, with a wasabi ponzu sauce. Yum! Albacore hand roll - fresh & buttery Eel hand roll - melt in your mouth delicious We were there early so it was easy to find parking at a meter. I can see why they get such consistently great reviews! I'll be back to try their yummy looking udon dishes. Highly recommend!!

    Stopped by before a show at Largo, and there were only four other people dining at the time…read more Service was friendly. I ordered a diet coke, two orders of the eel sushi (each order comes with only two pieces!). I didn't feel four pieces of eel sushi was good value for $16. The hand rolls were $6 a piece which were smaller than the average hand rolls. The eel had great flavor, but the spicy tuna was off. Oh how I wish I didn't have to walk through the kitchen to get to the restrooms. I didn't enjoy seeing the behind the scenes of it all. And the bathrooms need to be cleaned better, especially around the base of the toilets. They smelled awful. I hate to say this, but I definitely wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

We already had good street parking nearby, so we just walked over. Because it's on Fairfax near Melrose, parking definitely depends on the time and day -- it can get tricky in this area. We didn't notice any signs for parking in the back, so street parking might be your best bet. Food: We ordered three items, and everything we tried was solid, but the standout for us was the creamy ramen. We shared a bowl, but honestly, I would've happily eaten a whole one by myself if I had known how good it was. The prices were pretty reasonable for the area, and portion sizes felt fair. Service: The staff was friendly. Service was smooth, and our food came out in good time. Overall: A nice casual spot for sushi and ramen in the Fairfax/Melrose area. Good food, friendly service, and decent prices. I'd definitely come back, especially for that ramen.
