Darren H.

The Food is always on Point great value Customer service as well is legit To me this is one of the best kept/clean Yoshis on the planet !!!

Alex H.

I used to go a lot more back in the day as Yoshi was the place to go but the bowls feel like they gotten smaller which again due to the economy is rough located in a strip mall next to fosters freeze and el pollo loco...parking is not really an issue but they have drive thru its a typical Yoshi place but I do also feel they have changes the chili powder too I dunno feels different but I tend to go for sure when they offer those mail in coupons lol

Interior of restaurant
Courteney G.

Worker Beyonce was so nice and she even gave me coupons to help out on my order! Food is always so fresh, the restaurant was clean and refillable soft drink station was wiped down. This is my favorite location to come too!

XL with fried chicken, beef, brown rice and veggies
Christanne C.

Honestly a lot better than I expected. Coworkers wanted Yoshinoya, and I just said yes because I didn't have food for lunch. XL plate with fried chicken, beef, brown rice and veggies. $15.24 including tax. Good amount of food. Flavor was good. 3.5/5 Thai tea. Not good. Boba is good. Drink is not. 2/5 Wouldn't choose to go here on my own, but it's not a bad choice with fast food meals being $15 too

Oliver O.

I've been going here for many years, and it feels like the service and food have been consistently okay. They re-did the interior sometime in the past few years, so it's not terrible. The food itself tastes exactly like it looks, it's good for a quick meal. However I wouldn't recommend this place without any coupons.

Had a great experience in drive thru today! I wish I would have gotten the gentleman's named who took my order. My daughters don't like the sesame seeds nor the green onions on their teriyaki chicken but the order was taken, repeated and it came out exactly as ordered so I am super thankful.

Large Teriyaki Chicken Combination (and don't forget the ginger  )
Alfredo S.

When you have to satisfy a craving for teriyaki chicken, Yoshinoya has the best value for meal combinations. BTW, I recommend downloading the app. This location had been renovated not too long ago. I noticed the decor depicting the Asian inspired culture. I definitely recommend the drive-thru as I unfortunately walked in and had a large order before me (took a few minutes). Aside from that, the gentleman at the counter was super friendly and my order was ready not too long after.

Regular combo beef and chicken only 2 pieces of chicken
Toktok R.

Food taste is good Portion of the chicken no Service ok Ambiance ok Need to pay attention on the portion

Joyce A.

Excellent service from Henry! They have some coupons available in the newspaper or if you join their app. $3 chicken when you order combo bowls. Enough parking for everyone! It's a must try.

Side beef only $13 fur this ..!!?

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the food taste and variety, a clean and renovated location, and value with coupons. Service receives both praise and criticism.

Zero stars all around because the staff is lazy, lacks personality, and the food is poorly cooked. I regret spending money there.

This is a very cozy neighborhood gem in Gardena that delivers pristine quality! They maintain a…read moresteady baseline of excellent food and fast service. The moment you walk in, you're hit with a warm comforting atmosphere. It feels like stepping into a traditional welcoming home. To top off the hospitality, they start you off with a complimentary scoop of mashed potatoes. We ordered gyoza to start, which was perfectly pan-seared with a great crisp on the bottom and a juicy, savory filling. We also got chicken karaage which was golden, light, and incredibly crunchy (do not skip the fresh lemon squeeze! It cuts through the richness beautifully and highlights the seasoning). For entrees, we ordered the Bento box set. It is a massive, visually stunning assortment with tuna sashimi, chicken karaage, grilled mackerel, crisp tempura, earthy root veggies, and rice. It comes paired with a side bowl of their udon. You literally get a little bit of everything We also got the Pork Curry Katsu set: the katsu retains its crunch even under a rich blanket of deeply flavorful curry. It's incredibly filling and comes accompanied by refreshing pickled veggies to cleanse the palette and another hearty side of udon. Between the fast service, generous portions, and flawless execution across both raw and hot dishes, Kotohira is an absolute staple.

*** Credit cards accepted ***…read more Kotohira Restaurant is one of several old school Japanese restaurants in Gardena and the restaurant specializes in Okinawan food (Okinawa soba) and Sanuki udon. The restaurant is located in a fairly busy strip mall with other popular restaurants and drink shops located within the same mall. Renowned food critic Jonathan Gold from the Los Angeles Times wrote an article about this restaurant back in 1992 ( https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1992-07-09-fo-2127-story.html ). [Parking]: The strip mall has a big enough lot and our party had no issue finding an available spot during weekday dinner hours. [Interior]: Old school Japanese mom-and-pop dining vibe. [Menu]: The restaurant offers various combo sets with tempura, bento, udon, and seafood (unagi, salmon, grilled mackerel, etc). Their specialty dishes are Shoyu Udon and Tanuki Udon. *** Tendon Combo (assortment of fried tempura with a semi sweet sauce poured on top of rice $15.95): The fried tempura pieces were not as good as the tempura from Tendon Tempura Carlos Jr. as the combo lacked variety. The miso that came with this combo was really good. *** Overall a mediocre experience with the tempura combo that I ordered, but I sampled the udon and liked it a lot better than the tempura so I would definitely recommend getting their specialty like udon for a better experience.

There were only two waitresses for the restaurant which seems like it's not enough. A bit of a wait for even water and drinks. The food was fine.

Our drinks took 20 minutes to arrive, and we waited an entire hour for our food after ordering. The seating was incredibly uncomfortable, and the awkward layout of the restaurant made the overall dining experience even worse. Unfortunately, the food was just as disappointing as the service. The loin katsu was incredibly tough, dry, and lacked flavor. The tuna tataki was equally bland and didn't taste fresh. The filet katsu was slightly better, but it arrived cold. Between the painfully slow service, uncomfortable seating, and extremely underwhelming food, I genuinely cannot think of a single redeeming quality about this experience, besides the nice ambiance. I've never been so disappointed by a restaurant, and I'm honestly shocked that an establishment of this quality is operating in Torrance. I would absolutely not recommend it.

My friend and I both ordered the Manger's Special Set and we both really enjoyed it. I loved the variety and it was such a good deal. The salad was nicely dressed. The tempura was not oily at all and the batter was light and crispy. My favorite was the pumpkin tempura! The soda and udon were classics and the sushi was fresh. It's a great option for a light lunch but if you're going for dinner, it would be a good to add on an appetizer or two. Easy parking in the large lot in front of the restaurant and tables for every sized group. Great service! I'll def be back to try the oyako don and the okonomiyaki (limited item).

I ordered their Manager Special for $17.75, which I thought was a pretty good deal considering the variety and amount of food included. The meal came with vegetable & shrimp tempura, salad, sushi, and a choice of soba or udon. Overall, everything was decent, and I finished the entire meal! The portions were generous, and it was satisfying for the price. That said, while nothing was bad, the food wasn't particularly memorable either. Service was good, and the dining area was quiet during my visit, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. What I Tried: * Manager Special - $17.75: Tempura, salad, sushi, and a choice of soba or udon * Vegetable Tempura * Cold Udon with Dipping Sauce * Unadon (Eel Rice Bowl)

It was just the right amount of sweet. Maybe it is pumpkin season though, so it just made it better than normal. The shrimp tempura was refreshing. You can also sub out the shrimp tempura for chicken tempura. My combo came with three shrimp tempuras, and I tried to sub out one of the shrimps for chicken, but the waitress misheard and subbed out all three tempuras, so there was a little mistake there. But my friend donated a piece of shrimp tempura, and it was really, really good. The chicken tempura reminds me of a lighter fried chicken, so I thought that was funny and cute.

We started by ordering the Shrimp Tempura Roll and Spicy Salmon Roll as an appetizer. I was underwhelmed by the appearance of the salmon roll as the rice was crumbly, not tightly wrapped. The sushi rice was on the soft side. Both tasted good and were nicely presented with a purple flower garnish. That was a nice touch. All four of us ordered a dish with tempura. My Premium Tempura Bowl came with a huge piece of conger eel, two shrimp, mixed seafood tempura, seaweed, shishito pepper and a half boiled egg. The tempura was placed on a bed of rice and dressed with just the right amount of delicious sauce. The eel tempura and mixed seafood were substantial and very satisfying. For a premium bowl at $27 I expected jumbo shrimp, but instead I was disappointed when two small to medium size shrimp came out. I loved the boiled egg tempura which I cracked open over the rice. My wife and daughters ordered a tempura dinner and tempura combos with cold udon noodles. Those dishes were served with traditional dipping sauce, grated daikon, and scallions. Everyone was happy with their orders. You can't go wrong with tempura at Carlos Junior. The founder was trained in tempura making in Japan and it shows in all of his tempura dishes. The restaurant has become one of our favorite Japanese family restaurants. This cozy place is busy, but you don't feel rushed. The servers are warm and make the effort to take care of their customers. We will be coming back often.
