Really good sushi rolls, I want to try the teriyaki chicken but overall good experience & friendly cashier !! Clean location as well inside and out . read more

This spot looked rather hidden from outside. It seats in a little corner plaza and the windows are rather tinted so its hard to tell how busy is it inside. As you walk in, the staff welcomes you with a "Irasshaimase". They have a few tables and a sushi bar area. The place is cozy. Great to eat with friends, for a date, solo or with family. The menu is extensive! We ended up getting a bento with beef and California rolls and a regular dragon roll. We shared our food so just that was perfect for two. Their green tea was delicious! Even though I had it for dinner, I was still able to sleep really well. I always worry about the caffeine affecting my sleep. Overall, I recommend this spot. Is very authentic, the staff is friendly and the prices are reasonable for the great quality you get of fresh sushi. read more

Terrible service overall me and my friend decided to stay in the corner with our boys upon arrival was quite friendly at first but for some reason ended up with the cold shoulder. Was not accompanied by the waiter each time he would walk up he would service other tables and never asked how we were doing or if we needed a refill etc. There playboy roll tasted like if u were eating a spoonful of mayonnaise wasn't pleasant at all. I had high hopes cuz my friend recommended me but the service could have been a bit more mannerly. read more

Kyoto Sushi - Smells delicious! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Downey, California

3 stars and 1/2 . Not sure if this place is Korean or actual Japanese sushi place. They don't have soju and any Korean decors. Most of their rolls are spicy. For the price is ok, this one still better than Jin definitely. Service is ok too. The food doesnt have much rice which is good, Korean sushi mostly have more rice. It doesn't look like the complex have lot of parking space. As a local I just gotta try all the sushi places here in Downey. read more

Always enjoy going to Kyoto, but especially this location. Our entire family came to celebrate a birthday and it's great that this location has long tables to accommodate around 11 people. The restaurant is clean and well kept. The staff is very friendly and helpful too. It wasn't a busy night when we went , so our orders came out quite quickly. We ordered the Spider Rolls, Yellow tail sushi, calamari, Tonkatsu ramen and bell peppers that are on their appetizer list. Everything we ordered was tasty and fresh. Will definitely come back again. read more

This is a small place but it has a warm welcoming atmosphere. The service is always good and the staff greet you when you come in and when you are leaving. The fish is always fresh and the portion size of the rolls are great. I usually have to eat two rolls but one did the job. The Alaskan roll was my favorite. read more

Sushi rolls are amazing. Love the house rolls. Service is good and I believe they deliver. Ambiance is great for eating in!

Delicious food, great service, it seems like a popular neighborhood spot. I'm definitely going back!

This is legit the definition of a hidden gem. Nothing spectacular, just good food at moderate prices. Its still sushi, but average price sushi. One of many K-Sushi(korean owned sushi spots) in Downey. This was one of our to-go spots for takeout during pandemic time. Food has always been pretty good. From the rolls, to sushi, to edamame. Service is always good, we have not had a bad experience with any of the staff. Place is cozy, but has enough tables to not wait forever. Seating is not bad if you avoid Dinner rush. Again, its not Nobu, but its far form being the worst. Not top of the shelf Fish, but usually pretty fresh IMO. read more

It has been so many years and still the quality and freshness is unmatched. Kyoto will always be the best sushi I have ever had! Service is great. Ambiance, calm. Love it! read more

Fast and friendly service. Clean place, including the restroom. We had the salmon crunch, rainbow, crunch, and Philly rolls. They were very fresh and had great flavor. Price is comparable to other sushi places. I've lived in Downey for more than 30 years and have never been here before. We will be back to have some more. read more

My favorite sushi place ! Bravo, Azteca, Cilantro rolls are the best . They have baked rolls and other cooked items on their menu for those not wanting raw or trying sushi for the first time. Staff is friendly too. read more

I have enjoyed sushi from here for well over 10 years now! Yes, prices have soared (where haven't they risen?) but the one thing that remains the same is the freshness of the fish! We are always greeted with exceptional service and the environment is very nice! My favorite rolls: Azteca, Bravo, Fresh Spring, Sara #2, VDR, & Salmon Lover Cucumber salad, assorted tempura are also delicious! There is also assorted sashimi and it's my favorite when I want a light meal! read more

This is our best spot for sushi. We have been coming here for over a decade. The large selection of sushi rolls is reason enough to come back to try another. All the ingredients of the highest quality and each roll a supreme creation of these masters of sushi. Attentive and friendly service. Try the costumer's favorites line up and judge for yourself. I'll bet you'll came back for more. read more

Kyoto Sushi - Great sushi!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Downey, California

I love this place! Always fresh! Always excellent! Great variety from not spicy to spicy DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU ORDER. I am super picky (especially when it comes to fish... I just started to eat sushi) this is the ONLY place I eat sushi at. I travel from far but I don't care lol. The decor is nice and simple and I believe it's Japanese, because the name Kyoto is Japanese . I highly recommend. People here are very friendly. it Try for yourself read more

Kyoto Sushi - This is my favorite..yes both are mine lol. It's tiger crunchy hand roll on soy paper (comes with seaweed paper but I prefer soy) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Downey, California

My experience with Kyoto Sushi back on the evening of 8/15/20 was surprisingly pleasant. The service was on par. Greeted me as soon as I walked in and explained how to order during the height of COVID-19. A Yelp friend of mine, Franco M., had suggested the "French Kiss roll" ($16.99). A bit pricey, but it's important to me to support our local businesses. The eight-piece French Kiss roll has spicy tuna and eel tempura on the outside, crab mix and fried shrimp on the inside, and eel sauce and spicy mayo for heightened taste. Because my appetite was so low, this is all I ordered. I'd be down for another pickup. It was fresh. Made well. The crew was nice. Free parking in a shared lot of a small strip mall. Maybe next time I'll try the Azteca roll... read more

Kyoto Sushi - a close up of a long roll of sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Downey, California

Giving this place a 2.5 stars... this is not the places it used to be. Before this place was IT! Now, it's just a sushi place. After reading the reviews I decided to give it a try since it's less than a 5 min drive. I was extremely disappointed. Ordered the rainbow roll and tuna sashimi; both were flavorless, smelled weird, & didn't taste fresh. I have this habit of smelling the food prior to eating it, and my sense of smell was right. The food was not fresh. I will NOT be returning. read more

One of our old time favorites!! Fresh Sushi and sashimi.. Azteca roll, Sarah #1, Vic Roll, David Roll, Cilantro Roll.. all that for two people.. and everytime I order they ask me how many chopsticks ? I say 2 and they look at me .. saying all that sushi for two people..? Yup.. that's how good it is read more

Getting a low grade because compared to the other sushi joints nearby, this place falls flat. The menu is a confusing, there are no photos, and the service was lacking. The sushi rolls are pricier than other spots and the fish did not taste fresh. There really isn't much to say about this place. The experience was not it. read more

Lobster roll over priced . Didn't find the lobster and it's too sweet. Never order the lobster roll.

I remember first trying this place back when I was only 10/11 years old. I was never open to sushi but man! This place is so good. I recently came and bought a giant order worth for my anniversary and it was delightful. Here is a photo of the sushi menu (taken March 2021) so that you can look at accurate prices. read more

The sushi is really good ; however, I felt this place a bit overpriced considering the amount of sushi rolls you get . The price and quantity is the only thing stopping me from giving it 5 stars - service is good , I ordered takeout but just walking in it looked really nice in there . read more

A jewel hidden in Downey. The little restaurant just feels very authentic in Japanese cuisine. There the sushi rolls are really great and fresh. It is made to order and you can even order to go. The service did take its time because of the preparation of the rolls and tempura we ordered. But overall, very quick to take our order and within 20 minutes it was ready. The dodger game was on so expect the dodger games to be live when eating at this establishment. Overall I really recommend this place. It's feel like a hole in the wall but I am dying to go back and try more. Oh and there is sashimi available to those who want uncooked options! read more

Seriously this little place is a HIDDEN GEM. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Presentation and taste was just WOW. It may not be the most luxurious sushi spot but it's the most tasty one I had. Fish tasted SO fresh and it just melted in my mouth. By far the best yellow tail I've ever had and I'm a big sushi girl. The flavors of the rolls were explosive. I couldn't complain and believe me I always complain about food lol. We drove 20 mins and it was all worth it. Definitely, absolutely we will come back. read more

Although the service was good, the sashimi, miso soup, and even just a side of rice was less than mediocre. The salmon/tuna sashimi was tough instead of soft like it should be. The rice tasted like it was sitting outside for 2 weeks. This was during dinner time not during odd hours. Worst yet, the two Korean "sushi chefs" didn't even acknowledge us the whole dinner or even when leaving the restaurant but were bickering about something the whole time. read more

I have loved this place since I was a kid. Decades later I still come here. The quality and taste have never disappointed.
