Ordered the albacore sushi, uni pasta, and black cod bento and was pretty happy with everything! I wasn't sure at all what to expect but it's definitely fun. The uni pasta had deliciously fresh uni, but fascinatingly tasted like a slightly elevated kraft mac and cheese. The black cod bento was so delicious, but the sides are heavily onion flavored and I'm not too big of a fan of onions. Overall an amazing spot well worth the visit if you're in the area!

A few things stood out: * The takeout order was thoughtfully and carefully packaged. Everything arrived organized, secure, and looking fresh. * They provide real wasabi and a generous amount of pickled ginger, which I always appreciate. * The quality of the fish was excellent, especially for takeout. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The only downside was that the rice in the mackerel bento box was a bit undercooked. It wasn't enough to ruin the meal, but it was noticeable. Overall, a very solid experience with quality fish and attention to detail. I'm not usually in the area, but I'll happily stop by again the next time I'm visiting.

6/10/2026 First time…read moreat Mills Alley. Decided to come here since this was close to the other shops I wanted to go to today. Also, the prices seemed great for lunch. HAKATA SET (Your choice of: Tonkotsu or Miso Ramen, comes with Mini Spicy Tuna Don, Chicken Karaage 2 pcs, Tsukemono) This was one of the set items for the lunch special. Chose the miso ramen. The miso ramen had a very strong white miso flavor. Didn't hate it, as I do love miso, but it was a little too much miso for my liking. Typical curly ramen and it was cooked well. Loved the jammy egg too. It was a soy marinated egg. There were also three pieces of chashu too! It was good, but slightly overcooked. The portion of the ramen was medium sized and was surprised they didn't bring a smaller size since it was a set meal. But happy they were generous! Spicy tuna don was a small bowl, but they gave a good portion of spicy tuna, which was delicious. Chicken karaage were two pieces of chicken and it was just okay. No tsukemono was served with the meal. Overall the meal was satisfying. I think the price was fair for what was given. CUSTOMER SERVICE Good, friendly and attentive customer service. No complaints! AMBIANCE / TABLES + SEATS Very calm and relaxing ambiance. It was quiet and no music was playing, which I liked. The restaurant was super clean and I liked how the tables were set. Large tables in the back and small tables were closer to the front. Bar seats on the side. It was a medium-sized restaurant, but the layout made it feel larger. Clean bathroom too. PARKING The closest and most logical parking spot was the one right across from the restaurant. School House Garage on 33 E Green St, Pasadena, CA 91105. Rates: $1.00 first 2 hrs, $2.00 for each additional hour. $12 for the full day. I liked the set menu, it was good for the price and I would like to return to try their other lunch menu items, whether it would be a set menu or a la carte.

They were incredibly kind, checked on us every few minutes, kept us updated, and even comped part of our meal and surprised us all with complimentary dessert. That level of hospitality really stood out. A special shoutout to Sho, who took over our table. He was so charismatic, friendly, and genuinely made the whole experience so much better despite the wait. Honestly, if he ever decides to stop working here, he would make a great bombshell on Love Island The food was absolutely delicious, the ambiance was great, and everyone we interacted with was so sweet and attentive. Even though the wait was longer than expected, the amazing customer service more than made up for it. We really appreciated how much the staff cared about making things right, and we'll definitely be back!

Love this spot. We came here for their shabu shabu and it was delicious and authentic…read more Please note, Shabu is only available at the counter due to limited 4-6 burner station setup at the counter. Shabu is fresh, delicious and authentic. The Kurobuta Pork Loin is very lean and tasty. The Black Angus Ribeye also very nice. Their ponzu has something else added but really nice. Not sure if it had a dash of sake but love their ponzu sauce. Lunch time at counter for shabu fills up quickly so be ready to wait in line if all shabu stations are occupied. Still worth the wait. Once seated, you'll get served fairly quickly. Excellent and very friendly service. Love our initial experience here. Definitely will be back. Happy Eating!!!

The lightly cooked oyster with yuzu had a great texture and clean taste, and we loved that each dish tasted completely different from the last. The monkfish liver was really savory and surprisingly good (I usually don't like monk liver). The albacore, medium fatty tuna, and scallop sashimi were all amazing -- especially the albacore. The house-made soy sauce was also savory and paired really well with the fish. The sardine with chives was a great combo- oily and fatty in the best way. Nori was perfectly crispy, and the aged yellowtail was something else. We paired everything with the Otokoyama sake, which was dry and crisp, and the Kubota Senjyu, which had a great balance. Only small con was that the rice could've been a little more dry and vinegar-y. Chef and our server were awesome- a warm, friendly vibe and service throughout!

I have to say I am extremely disappointed…read more 76 dollars for 3 plates. SMH. And before I go on, mochiko chicken is the only dish worth eating here. Now let's begin. Walked into a restaurant where you don't get greeted upon entry, the girl walking around just smiles at you with no words. No hello, nothing. Not even an Aloha! I've been to the big island, there's endless praises everywhere. You did not get the vibe here. First time we came here we were wowed by the food. Portions were great at first. Once we got our orders yesterday, I knew our time had come. Cant support places that over charge for no apparent reason. Plain and simple. Chicken thighs are 2-3 dollars a pound, beef is like 8-10 dollars a pound. I use to be in the food industry and to see the portions of food here the second round. Either it shows they are hurting bad, or the chef "was having a bad day?" I just don't believe that. And I can assure you they are not using halal nor organic meats for them to justify portion to pricing. Back to my first remark like I mentioned above, mochiko chicken is the only dish I recommend if someone is coming for their first time. Soft tender chicken bites sprinkled with some nori like seasoning. Rice scoop and the infamous sad Mac salad. The Mac salad needs love. Serious revamping. I make an authentic island style Mac salad time to time. Far better than this recipe. I also ordered the Galbi which I did not appreciate the bait and switch. Since I've ordered it before and this time it was not cut into strips. Last I checked with the numerous photos posted here on yelp. The version we received just wasn't it. Everyone gets a decent portion of meat. Nothing chewy or even with bones. I even said to my mother in law she is going to love this dish. And she hated it. They still had the bones of the sliced short rib on, VERY FATTY, very chewy. Such a let down. And last the Dinosaur ribs. I asked about them and was given a hand comparison to sizing. Not gonna lie this wasn't it either. There was almost no meat. Was the cow taking ozempic? Google Dinosaur Ribs. No seriously Google, Dinosaur ribs. I mean you guys need some help if you think what I got was dinosaur ribs. Definitely gotta 86 this item or give people what they actually deserve. If you're going to serve a dish and call it dinosaur ribs, atleast provide a dinosaur portion of meat on them. I mean poor execution. Flavor was decent, but having to chew the bottom connective tissue was unappealing and far from appetizing. 68 dollars plus an 8 dollar tip was too steep for this lack luster rendition of what Hawaiian food is and should be.
