Sushi was bomb but Jason told me to calm down and this upset me v much. I hate you Jason

Best sushi and waitress in town . It's my favorite happy hour spot. This place makes you feel at home. They remember you and treat you like family. read more

My weekday birthday lunch was a total disappointment thanks to the rude, miserable waitress serving us. Firstly, she argued about an item that my daughter clearly ordered in the past because, according to her, it did not exist. After a few minutes of her rude, condescending attitude, she realizes it is a special item that IS available! She did not even apologize! We should have left right then...I only realized this in hindsight. Aside from the salmon tempura (not on the menu, but always available...go figure), the food was not very fresh nor good. During the whole time we were there she never smiled, or grinned for that matter, she just huffed and snatched things away from the table. She was AWFUL!!!! At the end of it, we left just the change for her tip, roughly four bucks, which was more than generous on a 70+bill considering how rude she was. But wait, it doesn't stop there; she had the audacity to follow us out of the restaurant and return the tip/change to my mom. When my mom said "That's ok, keep it" she responded "I don't need this" and stormed off!!!!! Unbelievable!!!!Do not eat there, ever!!!! While my daughter has had a good experience in the past, it did not make up for this one. During the argument phase of the experience, my daughter was really polite and just calmly stated, "Oh I usually come on the weekends maybe that's why you don't have it"; she responded "well I don't work on the weekend." read more

We've been to this neighborhood Japanese restaurant a few times. Good experience overall, HOWEVER, be aware, DO NOT order noodle soup dishes here! We ordered ramen today and it was clearly instant noodles!!! Hard to believe they serve instant noodles at a restaurant for $7.99 but they just do!!! Clearly no one has called them out before because the staff looked embarrassed to admit it. And it came out even only half way cooked that you can still taste the dryness of the noodle. We asked to change to udon soup- it still wasn't the udon noodle you would get at an authentic Japanese place though, tastes just like those packaged frozen udon from supermarkets. Stick to the rice dishes and rolls- the ones we've tried so far are all tasty. But please, do not serve instant noodle to your customer at a restaurant. read more

My friend took me here on Saturday for the first time and I was very impressed. I got something called a Rattlesnake Roll. It was amazing! I don't even remember what exactly was in what I ordered, but I do know that it was complete with tempura, jalapeno, cream cheese, crab meat, and two different kinds of spicy sauce. I was a very happy girl! read more

I love the sushi rolls wish they had bigger rolls but I most.say is the best sushi spot I have tried .the caterpillar is my fave .

Great sushi ! Have inky eaten take out here but I am absolutely in love with the Tampra roll and spider roll! I will deff have to go in the resturant and not just do take out ! So when I do I will deff update my review ! So far so good though.... read more

Friendly atmosphere. Food was very good will come back to try something new. Joy joy sushi was bomb. Albacore sashimi kind of dry. Beef bowl was flavorful... Will be back to the Udon and the Tempura. read more

This is our local sushi place that we like to go to. The food is always fresh and the service is great. We really like Monae - she remembers us everytime (even down to our orders) and she is super friendly and knowledgeable. The sushi chefs are pretty hilarious. Our favorite is "Brad Pitt". Always good to us. read more

AWESOME PLACE! Always treated great there with fab service. Salmon tempura, baked salmon roll, Jalapeño bomb etc... Eat there as much as I can :) read more

This a little while perfect place to enjoy some sushi in company of the family, food is super and the customer service top notch ! It has become my favorite place to go when carving some sushi !! I definitely recommend this place ! read more

worms crawling through the fish! i'm sicker than an abused dog from eating here, foul disgusting mega odor fish. if you want to get sick come here there is no joy eating here! rude staff on top of this! never again. horrible over priced shit. is what they're serving read more

Joy used to be my spot, but their sushi is no longer to my taste/liking. They still have a great atmosphere and staff. I just don't think the prices justify the quality and lack of variety in their rolls compared to other sushi joints in the area. What Joy has got everyone beat is their udon noodle soups. Bomb. read more

This sushi spot is really local for me and the quality is excellent I love the sushi chef Jason ask to try his special hot sauce! Happy hour Mon-Thur 3-9:30 and Friday 3-6 $7 pitcher of beer! can't beat that read more

Recently moved to whittier near the whittwood town center and was craving sushi about 3 days ago so I went around 8:40 wish and was for take out, staff is really friendly and helpful. I walked in and was helped immediately, ordered 2 orders of crunch rolls and was very pleased:)! Definitely will be coming back, hope they're hiring . would love to work at a sushi restaurant again read more

I have been to this place two times and both times had a good time and liked the sushi. We sat at the bar both times and the service was fast. T^alking to the owner and sushi chef was fun. Maybe thats why we had a better time than the other reviewers. So yeah i have no problem going back. read more

I really like joy sushi. It'd not the best I have had but it's close and gets the job done when I have a sushi craving! I like to add mango to many of the rolls there. read more

When I went the fish was fresh and great. I love anything spicy and the choices I made did not disappoint. Good flavors and well put together. The prices were about average for this area but not jaw dropping. The service was also very good and attentive. Also they put just the right amount of sauce on what needed it so my sushi wasn't falling apart or drowning like at some places. Over all while not my favorite it definitely satisfied my craving for the right price without have to drive to far. read more

Food is very good. Very friendly people, too bad there's usually one waitress for the whole place. :(

New found favorite sushi spot! Had gone here years ago when it first opened and thought it was just alright... The other day my dad wanted to get some sushi so we decided hey let's give this place another try since we haven't been here in awhile and it's super close to my house... Wow were we in for a treat it was superb sushi! Hamachi sushi and sashimi and the TNT roll and the Philly roll wow bursting with amazing flavors! New found sushi spot right here! We both were super pleased we gave it another try! read more

I really like the vibe and atmosphere of this place. My favorite item to order is the baked lobster roll which I recommend everyone to try at least once. If ordering an appetizer then I recommend the following three the yakitori(broiled chicken and vegetables on skewers), green mussels, or the jalapeño poppers. The servers are very nice and the menu has a lot of pictures of the items in case it is your first time there. Overall, the rolls and sushi are very good but as previously stated they have a lot of cooked items for people that like their food cooked. read more

Fantastic! It's delicious every time. Always a great time with all the chef's. Food is fresh and the chefs are creative.

Hands down best sushi place in Whittier. All around it is a fantastic dining experience. The staff is very friendly, the food is so fresh and it is very cleanly kept! It has become a favorite spot to eat! read more

Good sushi, decent teriyaki chicken. Service is good, pretty fast. Would come back if in the area.

This place is great for sushi, I recommend coming during lunch or happy hour. Lunch is 1130a-3p and happy hour is Monday - friday 3-6pm Definitely try the pink lady hand roll and B.C.F roll. Honestly every single thing I've ever gotten here tastes great. At times the service is slow especially when it is busy but just have some patience it's worth it. read more

Terrible. Do not recommend at all. My 3 girlfriends and I ate here last night and we basically spent $150 to get food poisoning. We had a few rolls, salmon (which was sliced way too thick), tempura and seaweed salad. The food was lacking in flavor and the tempura was way greasy. As soon as we left the restaurant my stomach started hurting and by the end of the night all of us were extremely sick. Very disappointing, this place used to be good many years ago. read more

Solid sushi place in a great location. They have a lot of spicy options and their miso soup is delicious! Service is quick and the atmosphere is really comfortable. The music is great too! read more

This place is amazing! The food is the best, you can see they put work into the food unlike other places. The waitresses are nice as well. Love coming here with my husband, ever since I brought him we haven't found another good place read more

This is a great sushi spot in Whittier. The lobster roll is my favorite, but other notables are the hot night roll, salmon sushi, and salmon sashimi. Great atmosphere, friendly service. I don't find the prices too high. My wife and I had salmon sushi, a hot night roll, california roll, miso soup, and a couple of Sapporo's and the bill came out to $33. Not too bad for a quick sushi craving! read more

Ate here for the first time today, was pleased with the friendly service and I loved there Spicy Salmon and Avocado special, although they have a limited menu the rolls we tried were also very tasty. I'll definitely be coming back!!! read more

Ok, it's not the cream of the crop when it comes to sushi joints, but it is good quality and never disappoints. I take friends and family here without hesitation. Sashimi is awesome, just wish mackeral wasn't part of the assortment. It's so damn fishy and they put this crazy spicy sauce on it. Also, I don't know what's up with their diet coke, but it tastes so much better than most restaurants! Seaweed salad here is bombtastic. Oh, and I personally do like their Lady Gaga and top 40 music playing in the background during dinner time. Drowns out other people talking which I don't care to hear anyway! If you like sushi and you're in the area, go for it. read more

I love this place a lil pricy but worth it I can't help but compare other sushi spots. The crunch roll with wasbi and soy is amazing spicy tuna hand roll with soy paper keeps me wanting more. Popcorn lobster is to dye for. read more

Have been here about five times. I usually get the salmon bento box and some rolls. I always enjoy it. The service is good and I like the decor and the quiet atmosphere. read more

Great place best sushi in town... The sushi chefs are the best and hilarious. The fish is always fresh and the rolls delicious. Have to try the monster roll Godzilla roll and the moon river!!! read more
