    Amazing food and service. Love the ambience. Nice & clean. Definitely recommend this place. Tried Oji Sushi & really enjoyed it! They have a BOGO deal. Chris was friendly and nice, and made us laugh What we ordered: Golden Tiger Roll Black Dragon Roll Baked Alaskan Roll Cucumber Skinny Roll

    Sushi Omakase
    Ellen N.

    Sat at the sushi bar and ordered the omakase set along with the garlic edamame. I asked for no albacore and was hoping it would be substituted with a different fish, but instead I got double salmon, which I honestly didn't mind too much. The fish was fresh, but the seasoning across most of the pieces tasted very similar, so nothing really stood out. The spicy tuna roll was also a little bland for my taste. The garlic edamame, however, was delicious and definitely one of the highlights of the meal. Service was friendly throughout the experience, and overall it was still a nice spot to check out.

    We love Oji Sushi & Sake Bar! We are regulars here and everytime we come we try something different. Today we went and decided to try the Halibut, King Scallop, and Ikura. Along with our beautiful rolls -the crazy albacore, and the Zen. Our server is the absolute best! Shout out to Jenns our waitress for excellent service and handle in ball the tables solo on a busy night!

    Tiger roll!!

    Sushi is fresh and good customer service and the vibe is awesome . I would definitely come back again.

    Shishito peppers, tempura, cucumber salad

    Been coming here for over 2 years and the quality and service is top tier. Ramen is a must. And the servers are amazing and always on it. Would recommend 1,000%

    Tried Oji Sushi in Montebello and really enjoyed everything we ordered! The Jessica Alba Wrap was one of our favorites, spicy tuna and avocado wrapped with albacore, finished with a tangy house sauce and crispy fried onions. We also loved the sushi and Chirashi. The fish was thick cut, fresh, and generously portioned, and the Chirashi came with a great variety of sashimi. Lots of options on the menu, with something for everyone! What we ordered: -Jessica Alba Wrap -Chirashi -Sushi 2pcs: bluefin tuna, salmon, yellowtail, sweet shrimp, lemon pepper salmon

    Nice sushi spot in Montebello, worth trying Historical building, interior massively redone Friendly atmosphere But service was less attentive to our spot, service didn't ask if we needed anything just handed us our dishes, I could've asked but.. I went with my go to sushi option. California Roll They do a 6 or 8 price for a slight premium however Delicious, presented well and filled me up.. 7/10 My girl said good food but bad service she got Spicy edamame her fav 8/10 Very good but spicy be aware Salmon sashimi 4/10 Good, but has chewy areas Presented cute Interesting raw regular udon 6/10 Didn't know it had so many veg, Udon is Montebello staple,

    Spicy Tuna Roll
    Christine B.

    5/5 would come back literally the next day!!! the food was so scrumptious & amazing service!! our server was so funny & friendly & kept checking in on us!! We went in blindly not knowing this place was a little bar/ edm vibe but it was supes cute!! whoever was on aux was cooking (in the kitchen too) The price honestly was not bad either we got all these dishes + a soju cocktail for like $70! Spicy edemame was a little too spicy for my bf but i thought it was soooooooooo good & had a hint of sweetness to it! Will be coming back & bringing more friends!!

    Tonkotsu Ramen
    Lucian L.

    Wanted to come here because I was craving both sushi and ramen since it was a rainy day. Service was good and was attended to well. Tonkotsu Ramen 3/5: - I liked the flavors and it wasn't super salty. It definitely satisfied my ramen craving, but I wish the meat wasn't that overcooked and dry. Chirashi 4/5: - Also liked this but my only thing about it was that some fish pieces were very fishy so it threw my taste buds off. Angrytail roll 4/5: - Also good, I don't have any complaints with this, the fish could be a little more fresh but that's about it. Overall, I liked this place and it had very good deals for lunch especially.

    Good food great customer service. We sat outside place gets crowded. Chris my waiter put my beer in a bucket of ice so my beer wouldn't get hot with this hot weather. Sushi is a hit here. Highly recommend this place.

    Avocado roll with crunch flakes and beer!

    My rating is for the food and not the service (which can use some work)…read more It was my first time here just to celebrate my dad's birthday. You basically go in, choose the ingredients you want in your hot pot and then go to the end where your food will be weighed. You then choose a flavor for your soup, they hand you a number, and then you sit down and wait for your food. I got the Tom yum soup which was great - very tasty. My bowl came out to be about $17 and I was pretty full from it. After you finish eating, they give you a soft served ice cream (black sesame) which was so yummy! Anyway for the experience / service - Since it was my first time, the worker had to explain the process to me but she was sooo soft spoken, I can barely hear her so I just figured it out myself. We did bring cake to the restaurant and maybe it's not a traditional place to celebrate? But they were nice enough to help us store the cake in the fridge. However, when they brought it out for us, I guess I thought they would offer forks or a small bowl or plate for the cake. None of that was offered. We had to flag down someone and asked but the guy only gave us forks so we just looked at each other. And ended up grabbing the sauce bowls as our plates. My dad also some restrictions with biting large pieces of food so we asked for scissors and they did not have any. We ended up going next door to Daiso to buy a pair of scissors. Overall, this place is not extremely accommodating for these extra requests but the food is good. There's some happy hour but signs are not at every table so I had to zoom in on the poster to see what the deals were.

They only provided us with the lunch menu when we arrived. If you spend $50 or more, you get to spin the wheel for a free dish. They asked us what we wanted and we requested the 免费烤鸭 or Roasted Duck. We didn't spin the wheel. Later, we saw that crab was one of the free item you could spin for, so we immediately ask the waiter to change the free item, but she said they already cut up the duck. Also, they said you have to spin to get the crab. We've been here many time and have not see anyone spin for the crab. We ordered the 清蒸鲈鱼 or Steamed Sea Bass with Soy Sauce for $16.99, 乾煸四李豆 or Stir-fried String Beans for $10.99, 海鲜扒炸豆腐 or Seafood Fried Tofu for $13.99, and 宮保雞丁 or Kung Pao Chicken for $10.99. We also ordered white rice for $1.50 per bowl. All of the dishes were really salty. We saw other tables had the Dinner Special menu. We didn't like that we didn't get a complete menu when we definitely came during the Dinner Special time. The complimentary red bean dessert at the end wasn't bad. The food was too salty and service was not good this time.

We went close to opening, so the atmosphere was peaceful & cozy. The staff was kind & welcoming, though we did have to ask a few times for our table to be cleared.

Chicken was juicy. I usually don't eat chicken wings. Even after it got cold, the wings still tasted tender and not dry. Grilled Cabbage with Bagna Cauda - I do like a good cabbage dish, but the cabbage was under charred, way too greasy, & lacked acidity. After finishing the half portion of cabbage, it left an unpleasant after taste. Not a well balanced dish at all. Not my favorite dish. Maybe we should've gotten a simple salad instead. Dan Dan Campanelle - the dish came warm not hot. Good flavors and the Campanelle had a good chew, but not an exceptional dish. Hainan Fish Rice - I was so looking forward to this dish. The fish was cooked perfectly, but again lacking balance. The ginger oil is muted and purely decorative, lacking the sharp, sinus-clearing bite needed to wake up the dish. Without the bright, raw punch of ginger and chili, the dish tastes heavy and one-dimensional. I just wished there were more flavors and not just the taste of oil with each bite of fish and ginger. Good ingredients used, but just too heavy on the oil, too light on the aromatics. We didn't fully enjoy our meal as much as we would've liked. We might come back and try the brunch some day.

We got the special dinner package, which for $47.99, gives you a whole chicken, with choice of Hainan of the Salt-Baked chicken, Rice Noodle with select protein, seasonal veggies, 3 lemon teas (which are usually $4-5 at other restaurants), and another amazing delicacy, the Stone Pot rice, which we added $2 to get the eel rice, which is so plentiful and made with high quality rice, as well as not too much ginger, which means the eel is very fresh. The staff is very attentive and ready to help with things and keep the drinks full (yes, you can refill your lemon tea ). It's a nice Cafe setting and is nice and clean with windows facing the mall. Nice and bright and comfortable. This place also has many options for lunch, including HK BBQ items and other excellent foods. I am going to come here again really soon.
