The food is quite good and the prices are very reasonable. But what pushes the score to the top is the service. We came on Thanksgiving and everyone was very attentive and friendly and they even gave us a free appetizer and ice cream. It was a pleasure to dine here. read more

I wish I could give a zero but that's not possible so I'll give it a one. First the person that worked in here that took our order had given us extra sushi that we didn't ask for and kept insisting we take it because he had cooked it already with a huge attitude and got in my dads face. Secondly the food was mushy and very nasty it didn't seem like regular sushi. Thirdly when we were done paying he threw the card with attitude and was packing our food in a rude manner. Next time learn how to control your emotions when ur customers correct u on their orders that they're paying for, learn how to have manners, and respect your customers that are willing to keep ur business going, learn how to make better food before insisting on giving ur customers extra food when they didn't ask. read more

my favorite sushi place in gardena. its a hidden gem. such good service and the food is amazing. read more

The food and the service was absolutely unacceptable. Got served extra food we did not order and we were being charged extra. The server was being extremely rude and raising his voice. The sushi was not good in flavor nor texture, i am in absolute distraught. read more

Rolls were good. Sushi was mediocre. I did not like the ambience - the bar place is very tight. They played Japanese rock very loud, it would belong at some bar, not family dining place. The service was okay, not great read more

Came in tonight and it's been a while! Service was absolutely top tier. The servers are amazing! We were greeted immediately upon walking in and sat. We ordered the crunch roll since we love tempura. We also ordered spicy tuna cut roll and salmon cut roll. This is a little hole in wall located in a plaza full of competitive restaurants, but it's a definite go to for fresh sushi and cold Japanese beer read more

Amazing sushi and service. Couldn't get enough of their rolls! If you're craving fresh sushi in the LA area, this place checks all the boxes. read more

Food and service pretty good. It can get busy so I suggest a reservation and give yourself plenty of time for parking! Always busy!

Burnt our food and when we complained, told us that was how they made their Crispy Rice. At the end of lunch, another table ordered the crispy rice and it came a lovely golden beige color like it is supposed to. It's one thing to accidentally overdo the cooking. It's another thing to gaslight your guests. read more

We ordered 3 rolls, and Tuna Crispy rice. The rainbow roll and the Hawaiian roll were tasty, but the Spicy Tuna on crispy rice was badly burnt, one piece was inedible. When I complained to the waiter, he said they make it that way on purpose. The table next to us ordered the same thing, and theirs came cooked to a light golden color. I left the burnt rice for the waiter to see, but he chose to ignore it. There are many better sushi places around- try Sushi Yoko or another place that doesn't gaslight their guests. read more

I got the combo B + spicy tuna which came with miso soup and salad. The fish was super fresh. The spicy tuna roll was actually pretty spicy, but tasted delicious too. The poke nachos were so good too!! The tuna tasted like it was freshly minced. The prices for all the rolls were extremely fair as well. Service was great and fast! Plenty of parking in the plaza with cool shops, dessert, and other foods. read more

Food was amazing, good quality, and generous portions. The stuffed mushrooms were delicious and the customer service was also top tier. We will be coming back again in the future! read more

Discovered this hidden gem on a rainy day. Not only is there plenty of parking in the plaza but the food and service is soooooooo good! The food, bussin!!! Their sushi is a must here! Fish ratio to rice, is just right! And the price is reasonable. Two orders of sushi and appetizer around $40. Definitely coming back! read more

The food was surprisingly delicious, since it's our first time. We had no complaints on any of the dishes we had. They were kind enough to in a complimentary edamame free of charge. The crunch rolls were amazing. It was sweet and savory, on top of being fresh as well. On to the joy rolls there were spicy with hints of sweetness. For both dishes ,the portion sizes can satisfy a party of 2. As for the tonkanstu ramen, it was filled with rich and robust flavors. The ingredients meshed well altogether. Lastly, the baked mussels were incredible. They added carb meat, fish eggs and a sweet cream sauce. The service here is on point as well as kind workers. Very conforming environment and great music choices. We definitely will back here. read more

Customer service is awful at this place. Not once were we asked how our food was or if we wanted a refill on any of our drinks. The roll I got was less than ideal, lacked flavor so I made them aware of it and they just laughed at me. Again, customer service was absent here, I'm very big on customer service.. the sushi chef was also rude and kept making comments between his teeth. First and last time I go to this place, do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere. read more

The ambiance in there is amazing! The sous chef and staff are very welcoming. The food is fresh and so delicious, you want to continue to eat more and more! Sashimi so fresh, that it melts in your mouth! I would def recommend the yellowtail and ahi blue tuna sashimi! And ALL THEIR SUSHI OPTIONS will NOT DISAPPOINT!! :) read more

We stopped by here for dinner - dine in. Seated promptly, clean restaurant and the server is very nice. Food was good - thick slices of fish. The menu is a bit limited - no carpaccio available only sashimi. We'll visit again. Lots of free parking in the public lot! read more

Jake and Jay were super attentive and hospitable and master sushi chef Paul always keeps surprising us with unique and better rolls.

A literal diamond. A gem of a sushi spot. Sushi is always a hit or miss in LA. Ever since my go to spots sushi story went out of business it's been very hard to find a place with good quality fish and sushi chefs who care about the craft. I've finally found this spot, tucked away in a small strip mall you wouldn't even notice it if you hadn't look twice. read more

Came here on a Monday night because the hubby wanted some sushi for his birthday! When I first walked in and took a look at the decor, it looked pretty Americanized and I was sure the food wasn't going to be that good, but boy, was I wrong (and good thing!) We ordered the spider roll, salmon sashimi, hot rainbow roll and shrimp tempura udon (tempura on the side so it wouldn't get soggy). The spider roll was amazing- it was crunchy and delicious! Even our daughter liked the crab tempura and kept asking to eat more! The hot rainbow roll was my favorite! It came with a bit of this really good yuzu sauce drizzled on it. The spicy tuna and all the sashimi on top was fresh and tasty! The salmon sashimi melted right in our mouths- no tough parts in it at all! It also came topped with ikura (salmon eggs)! The udon was surprisingly good- the noodles were not too soft, there were a lot of yummy pieces of veggies floating around in the broth and the broth was pretty good, albeit a tad bit too sweet in my opinion. I would order without the tempura bits on top next time because I don't like how they get soggy. The shrimp tempura was really good though- hot, crispy and light batter on the outside! Service was prompt and our waiter was so nice. I mentioned that it was my hubby's birthday and at the end he brought out a little vanilla and strawberry ice cream to enjoy! Definitely would come back again when I'm craving sashimi or sushi! read more

Their California and shrimp rolls were super good and flavorful. The service was also great, we were given our food super quick and the waiter was very nice and even gave us some free soup to go along with our sushi rolls. read more

Had sushi here and it was not bad - I ordered the rainbow roll. The service on the other hand was bad. First off, the waiter seemed upset that we asked him to give us another tea because the tea bag broke and all the tea leaves were in our tea. We didn't even drink it and it seemed like we were upsetting him by asking such a simple question. Then, we were brought out the wrong roll. My friend received the Alaskan roll instead of the Mexican roll. When telling our waiter, he said "no, look I wrote Alaskan roll here" on his notepad. Yeah and you did not confirm our orders with us because he did NOT ask for the Alaskan roll. The waiter refused to just switch the rolls out even though the sushi was not touched. Just awful service here. read more

Excellent, fresh, flavorful. Handmade right then and there. Nice, quiet, relaxing ambience with some pleasant wall decor. Authentic feel. Very delicious sushi! read more

My family and I had an early dinner at Happy Sushi and I'll have to say I was very disappointed with the quality of their food. Let me first say I've eaten at many sushi places in the South Bay and I typiclally order the same dishes. Posting reviews of my experiences is not my thing, but I felt this one needed it. I never been to this establishment, but I thought I'd give it try since it had a 4+ star rating. I ordered the Hamachi Kama (tuna jaw). It was undersize and likely not fresh. The meat was very dry. Could have been the way it was prepared. The Baby Lobster (baked crawfish) was terrible. The crawfish was rubbery and the bed of California rolls it laid on had a distinctive spoiled taste. Could have been the mayo sauce they used, but it wasn't pleasant. My kids order a few salmon sushi rolls, which I didn't try. They had a couple of salmon rolls and a baked a salmon. My kids said the rolls were okay and made comment it didn't seem fresh as well. Some good things was the Miso soup and the service from Jake. Jake was our waiter and was attentive, making sure our glasses were always topped. There was one sushi chef behind his showcase who seemed nice. Could have been an off night for the place, who knows. The ambiance was standard and clean. We were the only customers there at that hour. I didn't think this was indicative of anything. Unfortunately I was not impressed with my food. read more

I'm the type of sushi eater that doesn't enjoy saucy sushi and if it's saucy, it has to be exceptional! I like to enjoy the freshness of the fish and sweetness of the rice. Now that I'm done with that disclosure-- Happy Sushi was pretty good. I ordered the Yellow Tail cut roll & the Spanish Roll. I really enjoyed the Yellowtail (that's probably my favorite type of sushi). Although the sushi itself was falling apart, I still enjoyed the freshness of the yellowtail. Now the Spanish Roll...meh. It looked good on the menu but when I tried it, the flavor of the garlic ponzu was very over powering and the albacore on top was super mushy. I had to force myself to finish it because it was just garlic, spicy mush. My partner got the beef place which came with rice, salad and a miso soup. The beef was sweet and tender, the salad was savory but the miso soup is always my favorite. I liked Happy Sushi, it wasn't a home run but I will definitely be back. The service was good and quick although the parking was a nightmare. Thanks Happy Sushi! read more

I have been coming to this sushi restaurant for several years. The service has always been wonderful. The waiter's have always been great. Most importantly the sushi is good! and the prices are so reasonable. I usually order the "Sushi B" combo and I think it may be the best sushi deal under $25 around. I keep coming back because Happy Sushi has yet to dissapoint me! read more

This was a delightful surprise. We arrived on a Friday night about 7:00 and were seated right away, although shortly afterwards it was quite busy. Service was fast and the food was fresh. The portions are generous. Beware of the parking situation. The parking lot is crazy due to the amount of restaurants in this shopping center. Don't get discouraged and drive away, a spot will open up eventually. Will definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more
