This is a small and cozy establishment in a busy street with lots of other cool shops. We made a reservation online for 2 at 630 on a Saturday. Tables were all full when we arrived so I recommend making a resy if possible. Got seated quickly and ordered ramen, gyoza, eagle rock roll, and a sashimi plate. Food arrived quickly too. Sushi and fish were incredibly fresh. So delicious!! The ramen was 11/10- the broth was so rich and tasty without being overly fatty. Great veggies in there, too. Ask for extra noodles it makes all the difference!! The Gyoza were some of my fav (up there with the ones I've had in Japan). This is a great spot, will be back!!

Wow, what an incredible place. First of all, it was so packed on a Wednesday night. Second, the fish was the freshest I've tasted in a long time. Third, I think this place hits it out of the park for the best sushi in all of Eagle Rock, Glendale, and Pasadena. Unfortunately, I don't have many pictures because I was too focused on how incredible the flavors were. Definitely begin with the spicy garlic edamame. Then, order the yellowtail sashimi (the one with yuzu), a couple of rolls or nigiri, and get your main plate as something cooked. The juxtaposition of raw and cooked is a great flavor-cleansing palate cleanser. As for the main plate, do not sleep on the Chicken Katsu, Garlic noodles, and Curry dish.

Salmon Ikura bowl
Annie C.

Saw good Yelp rating and had high hopes, but was disappointed. I thought the food was just okay. We came on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't very busy. My daughter loves salmon ikura bowls so we wanted to try theirs. It's tiny and unfortunately the ikura was very fishy. They do have lunch specials. We also ordered the tempura lunch special with spicy tuna roll. It's a small mom and pop restaurant. Parking was tough in the area. We parked on the street a few blocks away. Based on my experience I wouldn't come back again, but keeping an open mind maybe we went on an off day.

Tom yum ramen

Amazing food and service! Tom Yum Ramen and baked lobster roll - my favourite! Even a miso soup

Eel bowl

Fish on Rice is the cutest local sushi spot in Eagle Rock, and it's always packed with families, couples, and friends on the evenings that we have gone. The servers are nice but busy, and the inside of the restaurant has cool edgy club vibes because it's somewhat dark and intimate towards the back sitting areas. I highly recommend the eel bowl!!! The eel is lightly crispy and has the perfect amount of sweet eel sauce on top. I love the tamago (egg) that comes with it too, and it's served in the most beautiful bowl atop some warm white rice. The rest of the sushi is decent and fresh, but I will always come back for and dream about the eel bowl.

Lunch Menu

Exterior/ Interior: They are located on a main road. There is only street parking (that you need to pay for until certain hours). The inside is narrow and has wooden interior designs (benches and bar seating). There's approximately 4 seats for bar seating. Depending on your party size, you may or may not have trouble finding seats. I came from 4:30-5:30PM on a Saturday. It was not busy at all. This would be a perfect place to eat for a party of 2. Service: They've been efficient and nice. This place has created an environment where it's easy to order for pick-up and the quality remains the same. They're usually ready by the time they give you. Food: Though some may differ on the price of the items, the quality is nice for what they offer. I've ordered a variety of their appetizers and consistently order their hand rolls. A simple, fresh option goes a long way. I would recommend the Salmon Hand Roll (5/5) for the soft, tiny pieces that's easy to bite into and the fresh flavor. The Brussel Sprouts and Chicken Kaarage would be nice choices to balance the textures.

Uni and toro specials were EXCELLENT!
Norge Y.

I had been here a few times before. Good service and a charming, casual atmosphere. Always good enough to return but not run back often. I know I had ordered ankimo sashimi before but this time it was quite awful. The texture was firm, crumbly, and dry and the taste was lacking. It looked like it was processed and packaged like a sausage. I would not order this again. The FOR Sushi Combo was fine. That said, the toro and uni specials were fantastic and I'm coming back tomorrow just to order them again!

Popcorn Shrimp 10/10
Diana B.

Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Was super hungry and accidentally stumbled upon this place and super happy about that. Fish was super fresh the roll I ordered was done exactly how I had asked for. The rice on the spicy tune was perfectly crispy just the way it needs to be the baked crab handroll was full of meat they for sure don't go cheap with the fish quantity or quality. Will definitely be back here to try more things.

Tom Yum Tonkotsu
Diana M.

Love this place! I ordered from a couple of times on DoorDash before actually coming in to the restaurant. Their sushi was delicious and fresh through DoorDash so I knew the food was going to be even better at the restaurant - and it was! My go-to is the F.O.R. Sushi combo. The fish is fresh and portions are big and filling. We tried their tom yum tonkotsu and that broth is to die for. Service is quick and friendly every time we go. It's a small restaurant so it can feel a little bit cramped, but it's not terrible. Have to find street parking here!

Chicken Karaage
Linda T.

I've been here twice already and really satisfied with the food quality and the service here! Parking can be a hassle on busy days but there are street parking and a metered parking lot on Colorado and Caspar. The restaurant itself isn't too big, and there's also 2 tables outside in the front where you can dine if you have pets as well. They have a pretty good size menu that includes, lunch specials, sushi, as well as ramen and udon. The staff here are super friendly! I came here for lunch twice and here's what I tried: Chicken Teriyaki Lunch Special 4/5 - It comes with rice, salad and miso soup and your choice of either a California roll, Spicy Tuna Roll or Gyoza. I really enjoyed the bento box, food portions were great and I actually had extra to take home! Agedashi Tofu 3/5 - This was ok, I didn't really enjoy it very much. Chicken Karagge 5/5 - Order this! The chicken was really juicy and the sauce pairs perfectly with it Baked Scallop Roll and Salmon Roll - 5/5 - Portion sizes were great and the rolls were super delish! Will definitely be back in the near future. Enjoy!

Very high quality sushi restaurant. Nice quiet setting. Street parking is a little difficult to find. Fair prices. Decent portions. Great for a nicer lunch. Would recommend and would come back

I'm a huge fan of Chirashi bowls (donburi) and I always judge a sushi restaurant by the quality of their fish and the quality of their sushi rice in a chirashi bowl. My partner and I came for lunch and we were seated immediately. There were only two parties other than us, but otherwise it's a small restaurant with very few staff. The decor is very cute and the servers were very pleasant. We got the premium sushi (I think that's what it was) and the chirashi bowl and some other roll that my partner wanted. Chirashi bowl 5/5: fresh, large chunks of sashimi on top of sushi rice. Can't complain, there was nothing I would've changed about it. Premium Sushi 5/5: Just like the chirashi bowl the sushi was excellent. To me, it seemed like very similar dishes, just the chirashi bowl much more deconstructed and the nigiri was prepared for us. I forgot how the roll was, but I generally don't like rolls in general. Overall nice place!

Tuna hand roll

I feel like I got finessed. Looking at other reviews they played in my face. I ordered a tuna hand roll for something light and fresh but instead the hand roll was something I'd get at a grocery store, actually the tuna cuts at a grocery store are better. The hand roll was made with the tuna scraps, not like another yelper depicted, also the rice was not sushi rice, it was long grain rice. As an avid sushi eater this was a disgrace, I'm not sure if the quality had several gone down but the prices remain high. I say save ur money and go to a grocery store if you want mediocre fish cuts and the wrong kind of rice used at a SUSHI restaurant. The first pic is what I received vs what someone else received and reviewed a year ago. I should get a refund smh this was not worth $8 a hand roll, more like $3!!

To be clear, you really can't go wrong with any of the restaurants on this street and I recommend just going with whichever one has the shortest wait when you show up. Thankfully we only had to wait about 20 minutes and got a table inside. There were 6 of us and they made us squeeze into a booth built for 4 which was a little annoying but we made it work. I ordered their signature Daikoku Ramen which was very flavorful and filling, just wish there had been more meat! My husband got the poke bowl with salmon and tuna which is a great dish for those on the protein grind. Service was mixed, they brought some dishes out immediately and then others in our group had to wait longer to get their food. Overall food was tasty and I would go back.

The chashu was disappointing: lean and chewy--more like steak found in pho than the tender pork I expected. The wait for a table was long in the hot sun during lunch. And it's still an inconvenient location to get to in terms of parking--little Tokyo is as busy as ever. We had to share a table with some other, really loud patrons. The air conditioning was broken. I got the fried rice, previously one of my favorite side dishes here, but the Yakimeshi rice was too dry and disappointing. I added garlic and soft boiled egg to my ramen. The garlic flakes were too big/strong and overpowered everything. The egg was good. Since the noodles and broth are the most important parts and were both decent, I'd keep this place at around four stars. But there are a lot of other ramen places to try in the area. Original from years ago: Overtook Daikokuya as my favorite ramen place. I love so much about the place except the wait. And the parking, which doesn't validate as long as it used to. But really, the wait is really terrible. I would eat here more often if the wait weren't such an issue.

We ordered a chicken karaage to start and it wasn't bad, nothing to write home about though. Since the pieces were large, it was slightly awkward to eat without any plates, and I was just catching the crumbs with my hand (didn't have the ramens at the time). Also got a yuzu beer to try and it was delicious, nice yuzu flavor with some tanginess. I had the shoyu with duck while my husband had the yama tonkotsu that came with fragrant black garlic oil. The tonkotsu is not one of those rich, milky, creamy ones and I personally like these lighter ones more. I also enjoyed the shoyu which had a pleasant depth of flavor, but it felt like it was relying too heavily on MSG for umami. Noodles came out chewy. Definitely not the best ramens I've had but are some of the better ones in LA. Our server was friendly, as were the rest of the staff. Service was quick. The restaurant decor feels straight out of Japan, an extra bit of fun. There's a $10 paid lot behind this block of buildings that's convenient for anything in this part of Little Tokyo.
