Growing up, I went to after school right next door - so I've seen this place change owners and concepts and food MANY times over the decades. Enter Hayatobi sushi! First - they have awesomely HUGE salmon and yellowtail collars. They do run out though (even though we called in advance) but again - keeps it super fresh! We "settled" for the salmon one which was cooked perfectly. Second - the value is out of this world. I mean $6 cut rolls? unheard of in this economy! It's not a fancy place but it's delicious, fresh and is good value so i hope it sticks around as it's making my go-to rotation for when I'm visiting my parents. read more

This place probably has the best sushi rice I've had outside of Japan - perfect seasoned with the vinegar and cooked to perfect consistency. I got the salmon don and to be honest, the fish itself was not the best quality - it was ok, but definitely not the freshest - but the rice made the dish super delicious. We also ordered the unagi don and the eel was cooked perfectly and everything was seasoned just right. The interior is minimalist Japanese, and quaint. Our whole experience was pretty positive until we discovered that we both ended up being bit several times by god knows what from here. Not sure if it's just something that got in from the doors opening, or something that lives there. Either way, it soured our overall impression. read more

We ordered the tofu donabe and salmon don. My husband also got another don. The sashimi quality was fine - not outstanding, but good enough for the price point. The donabe was particularly comforting on a colder evening and came in a great portion size for two people to share. Our waiter was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The space has a very casual atmosphere, and since it wasn't crowded the night we visited, it was perfect for conversation and an easy, relaxed night out. Overall, this is a solid spot for Japanese comfort food at reasonable prices, especially when you want a low-key dining experience. read more

Hayatobi is a hidden gem! (Not to be confused with 2 Michelin Stars restaurant Hayato!) Amazing casual sushi spot! I have been hearing about this place and finally made a point to come right before they close. Their last day was supposed to be August 25, 2025, due to end of lease. Japanese sushi chef Mark-san was nice and friendly. Decent sushi and affordable price. I like their Kurodai Sushi. Their Belly Sampler Sushi was great too. Rice dishes had great price. They don't take reservations on the weekends, so we had to write our name down early and waited a bit at the restaurant. Service could be slow when it's busy in the weekends, but it's a great time to catch up with friends and have more drinks while waiting. They had a few parking spots in rear. read more

Very fresh, delicious sushi. The fish quality is really good and the slices are big with little rice. We came on a Monday holiday night, there was a bit of a wait. The restaurant was half empty but we didnt get seated until 20 minutes later. Service was friendly despite the wait. The wait did not bother me as soon as I started eating. Delicious sushi and was worth the wait. Definitely coming back. Great quality sushi and not overpriced like other places. Highly recommend coming here. read more

This is a gem (and very unassuming)! This place has affordable Japanese food that does not skip the quality. Hayatobi Sushi has a broad range of rolls, sushi, nigiri, appetizers, noodles, curries, and tempura (I am probably missing a few). The interior is a bit run down, but the service and quality of dishes are amazing. I highly recommend the Salmon Collar, Chirashi Bowl, and Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna.

Hayatobi is my favorite low-key local sushi spot in the SGV! There's never a wait and the sushi is not only fresh but affordable. My husband and I usually opt for the sushi bar and our go-to order is the 8 piece sushi omakase for $30. If we are still hungry we'll usually order the blue crab handrolls. All the handrolls are $4.50 and they are loaded with meat! I don't think you can beat this price any where. We always have a pleasant experience dining here, and the sushi chef is also a super nice guy! read more

We got here around 6pm on a Saturday and got seated right away (plenty of seats). We got: - sashimi deluxe: comes with uni and scallop, both of which are really good! The portion is just right and great for sharing! - yellowtail lover roll: pretty solid roll and everything you would expect! Great for sharing as well! - scallop sushi: if you haven't tried scallop sushi in the past, would recommend it! - chu-toro roll: would recommend - melts in your mouth! - baked green mussel: flavor is good but mussel is a bit too chewy and the sauce is a bit too overpowering. Overall, a really solid spot for sushi and sashimi in SGV! The ambience could be a little bit better but service was great! There is a small parking lot at the back and there's also street parking! read more

Hayatobi is the most under-the-radar Japanese restaurant I have encountered on the east side. Their fish selection is very fresh and high quality. One thing that really stood out to me was their unagi (eel) and avocado handroll. I absolutely love unagi and usually get it at every Japanese restaurant I visit, which makes for a great control. I have never had unagi this delicious anywhere! I'm not even exaggerating. It's freshly grilled and the charred flavor and texture is what does it for me. A MUST TRY. The lemon salmon roll also stood out to us; this one was very nice, refreshing and light with complementing flavor profiles. _what we ordered: - unagi and avocado handroll: - spicy scallop handroll - yellowtail and scallion handroll - blue crab handroll - lemon salmon roll: - dragon roll - soba and tempura _ambiance - The vibe here is a snapshot of a Japanese restaurant from the 90s - the decor to the city pop classics that reminds me of my drives down to LA with my parents when we lived in the Bay Area. Definitely not pretencious or trying so hard. The food speaks for itself. _service - Service is great and very attentive - very nice staff. We always sit at the bar and have a great time speaking with the chef! _parking There's a small lot to the south of the restaurant and plenty of street parking This is now our go-to Japanese sushi and home-style dishes restaurant in the area! read more

I was craving Japanese food, and I had heard some good things about Hayatobi Sushi from some colleagues. I also saw that the establishment was starting to serve mont blanc dessert on the menu. With all these things considered, I decided to come here to give it a try. Hayatobi Sushi has a variety of different dishes, from curry, to donburi, to American style sushi. It's a rather spacious and cozy restaurant. Service was quite slow, but the wait staff was still nice. I wanted to get a variety of dishes with my wife, so we ended up sharing kushikatsu, two nigiri, a negitoro roll, and the matcha mont blanc. The kushi katsu was nice. The batter was crispy. The quail eggs were standard. The pork was quite juicy and the shishito pepper was juicy also. I loved both nigiri. The fish were definitely sushi grade, and I loved that they used real wasabi. The negitoro was good, but I felt the rolls were a bit thicker than what I am used to with negitoro. I loved the matcha montblanc and it went well with ice cream. Solid sushi restaurant overall. read more

Hayatobi is my secret weapon. It's my raw fish Japanese izakaya that's my go-to when I have a craving. My favorite is the takowasa (marinated raw octopus in fresh ginger, fresh raw wasabi with salmon eggs); it goes so well with the house hot sake. I also can't pass up the karabiki pork sausage, which is roasted on a grill over hot coals until the casing blisters up; think of tasty miniature kielbasa but much better. I love it with their hot Asian mustard. Their rolls are very fresh and clean - like their negitoro (raw chopped tuna with scallions in a sushi rice roll with nori). Other stuff I've had on the menu include any number of specials like the "fatty" platter of sushi that includes the belly of many fishes (yellowtail, tuna, salmon). The crispy rice with spicy tuna topped with jalepeno, while really popular everywhere is best here. There is lot parking but it's best to come when they open or rather earlier in the evening. The servers are very attentive and are quick to refill your draft Sapporo or hot sake. They also have a great selection of cold sakes and they rate them according to sweetness and minerality so you can properly pair them with whatever you decide to order. This place is great! Just remember that they are closed on Tuesdays. read more

Really fresh food with great menu prices. Their premium sushi/sashimi/chirashi is such a great deal since they give you a good variety of fish with mostly the belly cuts of the fish. The hot food comes out really hot and fresh. The shrimp tempura's texture was perfect. The shrimp had the perfect bounce when biting into it and the crunch on the outside was nice and crispy. The rest of the menu is pretty diverse so there's so much to choose from. Will be trying other items next time! read more

One of my go to sushi restaurant in the SGV area. Been here several times and have yet to give a review. If you are looking for a reasonable price BUT for fresh fish then consider trying this place.

I've been coming here so much, I didn't realize my last review was soooo long ago, time for an update!! Still the best sushi hands down in the SGV! We bring family and friends here, and continue to introduce them to others whenever we can because we know how good the food is here, and how hard Mark Hayashi & team work! Added to my many pics is a new item we had the privilege of trying last night, which was super yummy, crispy umami popcorn shrimp! Very different from any popcorn shrimp I've had before, it was lightly battered, super crispy, with just a right touch of sweetness without being overpowering. He's also added different new fish, and we've enjoyed exploring the different flavors! A note to those expecting "fast food" speed - a good restaurant often has crowds and long lines, and many are willing to wait for even less quality food. There are times they get crazy busy, and if they are shorthanded, they cannot seat everyone without compromising on their quality. I recommend patience; it's worth it here! I'm already looking forward to my next delicious meal! read more

This is my family's go-to sushi place, and during happy hour they have an amazing selection of dishes at a good price! Most of the waiters are incredibly friendly, and it's never too busy that you can't find a seat. This is a hidden gem in the SGV. FOOD [4.5/5] * Spicy Yellowtail Roll [6/5] I would highly recommend this roll! We ordered one and loved it so much that we ordered two more. It's a perfect blend of spicy (it is pretty spicy), fatty, and fresh. The portion size for $4 during happy hour is also a pretty good steal. * Spicy Tuna Roll [4/5] This was a pretty standard roll. If you like spicy tuna, you'll like this roll. It's well made and comes with a good amount of rice and cucumbers to balance out the fish. * Tempura Udon [5/5] My mom always gets this dish -- it's her favorite. I highly recommend asking for the tempura dipping sauce on the side (they don't include it for some reason, but it's really good for the tempura). The udon broth itself is very good and tastes very authentic and delicious, and the dish comes with a selection of various tempura that are equally as good. * Various nigiri and sashimi [3/5] We also usually order a variety of nigiri and sashimi, but they're pretty average quality. I would also say they're actually pretty pricey for the quality that you get, even though we paid for the happy hour price. If you're looking to get full, I would recommend going with heavier items like the udon and hand rolls as opposed to the nigiri or sashimi. * Oysters [4/5] We've ordered a couple of their oyster selections and they're pretty good! I've personally tried both the baked and raw oysters, and they match up pretty well with most other oysters I've eaten at high-end places. SERVICE [4.5/5] The chefs and waiters are amazing. They're very friendly and attentive, and if you need anything, it's very easy to flag someone down and ask. We did have a somewhat unpleasant experience with one waitress who was petty standoffish and rude (e.g. she slammed glasses of water onto the table and immediately walked away, and rolled her eyes at my mom when she asked a question about a dish), but we'll chalk it up to her having a bad day (also, my family is too nice to say anything haha). AMBIENCE [4/5] Every time I visit Hayatobi, the decorations get prettier. They have beautiful lanterns on the ceiling, a wish tree that you can attach written notes to, and the place is never too busy or crowded. It's my family's go-to sushi place for a good reason. :) read more

(+) Chicken Kara-age (+) Salmon Nigiri Hayatobi is a Japanese restaurant located on the busy Rosemead Blvd. Their parking lot is small, so parking can be difficult as the restaurant in situated in a weird spot that you wouldn't normally find a restaurant. Once you make it inside, there are plenty of tables to sit at. The service was satisfactory, as I mentioned it was our first time here. Food: The food was good but not great. My wife and I shared the chicken teriyaki menu, assorted tempura, and chicken kara-age. The chicken pieces were thin and the teriyaki sauce was too sweet for my liking. The tempura was decent but nothing spectacular. My favorite was the chicken kara-age. The chicken pieces were bigger and well battered. Also, the salmon was very buttery and sushi rice prepared nicely as well. If I return, I'm ordered more raw fish. Overall, I don't think I'd come back since there are other Japanese restaurant choices in the area. Do yourself a favor and try it out for yourself! read more

The food was great, and the price was extremely fair. However, what made this a 2/5 star experience was the excruciating wait times. We got there at around 7PM and it took us around 40 minutes to get seated. We noticed that they closed down a third of the restaurant and didn't have enough staff to clean up the tables after customers left. When we finally got seated, the server notified us that the wait was long due to a large order they had. I typically don't mind waiting, but considering that there were only two parties 2 of ahead of us who have been waiting even longer, they should have informed us about the horrendous wait time sooner. We thought that waiting for seating was going to be the end of it, but waiting for our food took just as long. All in all, we arrived at 7PM and didn't get all of our food until 8:40PM. We were hungry and frustrated with the wait to say the least, but maybe we just came on an off day. read more

Authentic Japanese sushi and cuisine located in its own plaza with parking off of Rosemead Blvd! Impeccable service and plenty of seating inside. They also play Japanese pop music which further contributed to the ambiance! I came during their Anniversary "KANSHA" celebration period, featuring discounts and special pricing on a separate menu. I ordered the Blue Crab Handroll ($4.50) and Negi Toro Handroll ($7). The handrolls were delicious and use high-quality seafood. I also ordered the Sashimi Premium 8pc ($30) and I was completely full halfway through this meal. They use real wasabi for the sashimi and overall everything was fresh and tasted great! read more

I have given them five stars before because the fish was larger in size see my old photos compared to today visit. The fish is still fresh and good tasting but smaller so the value is not the same. The five stars include value for what you pay for and it is smaller now. I came in a day with new servers and the service was slower than usual. The unagi sushi was a disappointment it was not hot or warm. Plus they didn't have much sauce on it. I tried the tempura udon this time. It was not worth the 14.00 for that. I might try the unagi bowl the next time. read more

A hole in the wall sushi restaurant in SGV. They are only open from 4PM-9PM (Monday-Sunday). We didn't need a reservation. Everything we ordered was good. We were so excited to see that they had TAKOWASA!!! Takowasa is pretty much raw octopus with wasabi. It was delicious! Definitely pair it with beer or other alcohol. I am so happy somewhere so close to us has takowasa! The shrimp and vegetable tempura were excellent as well. They were lightly battered and not oily. There was a nice crunch when biting into them. The sashimi was fresh. Hayatobi was legit! The blue crab wrapped in soy paper had real crab and not imitation crab. The Unadon (Unagi) was delicious. The unagi was meaty and packed with umami! They give you a good chunk of the unagi. Very generous of them. Service could have been better? Nothing too bad. For example, I ordered hand rolls, but they gave me cut rolls. They also forgot our order of the blue crab wrapped in soy paper. The servers were very nice and apologetic. No harm, no foul. I am excited for the next time we eat here. read more

Best sushi quality for happy hour! I was craving sushi and was fishing around for spots that do happy hour and stumbled across this restaurant. I came in with no expectations and wow this place blew my mind. All their sushi/sashimi were $6 during happy hour. Their fish quality and thick cut was so delicious. I'd even pay full price for them. My favorite were their tuna and salmon sushi. It tasted so fresh and creamy. I even tried their toro which isn't on their happy hour and it blew me away! The toro just melted instantly and so flavorful. Another favorite of mine was their sweet shrimp. The crispy head was packed with flavor and crispy! Their hot sake was only $3 during happy hour so we had to get a few of those and their draft Sapporo was also on their happy hour. This restaurant tucked away on a busy main street so it's easy to be missed. I never knew it existed until I found it on Yelp. Seems like a lot of locals come by so it's pretty low-key but for good reasons. Fresh fish at a good price! What more can anybody want?! read more

Honestly ever since I stumbled upon this place it's been my go to sushi place! All the cuts of fish are extremely high quality, and the pricing is just really competitive for what you get. I've traveled Japan extensively, and there are some serious authentic dishes here which are hard to find in the SGV. I challenge anyone to find a better Chirashi for the price. Highly recommend you give Hayatobi a shot - won't be disappointed it's been a favorite for all those I've introduced so far. read more

Hayatobi Sushi is located on Rosemead Blvd. It's a standalone restaurant with it's own parking lot. The lot is relatively small, and parking can be challenging on a busy day. The restaurant itself seems to be on the larger side with plenty of tables that can accommodate a variety of groups. Servers were friendly. Chirashi 3/5 - Looked prettier than it tasted. Fish was clean, but each piece was so small. They were folded to look bigger than it was. Rice was a little mushy. Crispy rice 3/5 - Tuna didn't really have much flavor. Hard to go wrong with this dish. Nothing too standout or disappointing. Yellowtail scallion handroll 4/5 - This was probably the best part of my meal. Fish was fresh and the seaweed was crispy. My only gripe is that all the fish was at the top and I was left with all the rice after the first bite. Overall, not sure I would come back. I would say there are better options in the area but decent sushi for the area. read more

Wow! Gotta say probably the freshest and softest sushi I've had in 626 area. Upon entering around 5:30 pm on a weekend, the place was pretty empty. I came here with people who have been regulars at this restaurant for over 10 years and knew the waiters/chef. That helped in deciding what to order. 1) Scallop sushi: 10/10 So freaking delicious and juicy. Literally dissolved in my mouth 2) Black Tobiko: 7/10 First time trying this. Definitely was interesting as I've never had it before and liked the crunch from the Tobiko. 3) Unagi: 9/10 So good! The only con was it's a bit too salty for my pallet but I think the eel was charred super well and the sauce complemented well with the eel. 4) Yellow fish sushi: 6/10 Not really a big fan of yellow fish in general but I liked that compared to other places I've had, it wasn't a rubbery-feeling and felt really soft in my mouth. 5) Chu-Toro: 10/10 Toro is always really good and this definitely was super filling. Wish I ordered it later/last dish because I kind of got full from the beginning. Overall, loved the fish they served-- it was really fresh and soft. The only con is they need more people like assistant chefs. There's only one main chef and it took us forever to get our food because there was someone at the omakase and he was managing that too. It would be great if there would hire more people as I think that's why most reviews complain about the turnaround time. Additionally, parking is super limited so it can also deter people from coming. read more

I dined here a while back when they still had the $5 deal. I've been wanting to go back since the sushi was good quality. I have tried to get take out a few times but they never answer their phone and I even tried to place an order online but it never went through.. I finally got to dine in again and now the dine in price is $6 4-7pm only. They took away some items AND they give you less portions. Times are rough, I get it. However, what makes me irritated is that not only did they raise the price, they also give you less portions! The salmon avocado roll used to come with 8 pieces and now it's reduced to 6 pieces and costing $1 more (see pictures). However, quality is still good for this price but comparing the prices and portions before the price increase and portion decrease leaves a bad taste in my mouth. read more

I love hearing about deals, so when I heard that a Japanese restaurant nearby had a dine-in $5 special on almost most of their items, I suggested to my family to give this fairly new restaurant (at least to us) a try. Apparently we've driven past countless times, but because it's located on a very busy street, it's hard to take notice of the restaurant unless you know what you're looking for. It's on Rosemead right after Numero Uno market and TECC if you're coming from Longden towards Duarte with a small parking lot. The restaurant is actually a pretty good size, but one side is closed off. There are maybe about 10 tables/booths for dine-in customers. The regular menu contains appetizers, noodles, rice bowls, soups/salads, sushi/sashimi/rolls while the $5 menu offers a variety of appetizers, rolls/handrolls, and sushi/sashimi. $5 actually sounds like a super good deal - but once you start ordering, the price does add up. Some items I highly recommend: tuna and salmon sushi and sashimi. Super fresh fish with a very generous portion size. Melted in my mouth and tasted pretty incredible. I also really enjoyed the tuna, Philadelphia, and salmon and avocado rolls. The cut rolls had 8 pieces of sushi and was quite filling. If you're looking at the appetizers, I really recommend the crispy rice with spicy tuna. Loved the crispy rice - crunchy on the outside, but a little chewy on the inside. I also enjoyed the baked green mussels. The mussel shells were super shiny and pretty! But the taste was also really good. And of course, can't go wrong with mixed tempura ($8 for 2 shrimp and a variety of vegetables). These were freshly fried - shrimp wasn't too big, but the taste was really good, especially with the tempura dipping sauce. There was also an onion ring, broccoli, sweet potato, and eggplant. We also tried the fried brussel sprouts, which were not bad - the sauce it was mixed in was a little too sweet for me. The chicken kara-age was nicely fried with large chunks of chicken. I agree with another reviewer that the sauce that usually accompanies this dish is with a sweet/honey mayo and Hayotobi's sauce was a sweet soy sauce, which didn't really pair well with the chicken. And lastly we tried the eel avocado roll and the yellowtail sushi. I thought these were alright. Nothing special, but I'd probably order the other rolls and sushi over these. Really glad I got the chance to discover and support a small business in SGV! They do seem to be getting a good amount of customers, likely from their dine-in special which is definitely good news. Workers were all very friendly and helpful. Don't forget to have your vaccination card on hand (physical or digital) when you walk in, as you need to show it for proof before you sit down to dine in. read more

Came here after seeing a dine in deal on the SGV eats page and all the dishes were tasty! At $5, we got to try a variety of hand rolls and apps. Everything was fresh! And reasonably priced with this deal. Our table ordered spicy tuna crispy rice, edamame, agedashi tofu, and a plethora of hand/cut rolls. All were great. We tried the spicy yellowtail, yellow tail green onion, spicy scallop, and eel avocado. Also tried their speciality rolls. The San Marino and Alhambra roll were awesome! Check them out on their menu. All very well packed and good size cuts of fish. Overall the food was really good but the service was really bad... everyone was sweet and nice but likely new and a bit flustered. We asked for water 5x before we were able to get some as one example. Chopsticks and soy sauce were missing and when our dishes came, we had to ask for ginger and wasabi as the waitress gave us one serving for a party of 6. Hopefully all hiccups to be fixed as this is a small and quaint joint with some good eats! read more
