    Mango Crunch Roll Octopus Mackerel Ika(Squid) Albacore Hamachi(Yellowtail)

    I came here for AYCE lunch. This place is so cute, and the food was great. The chef and server were very nice and attentive. I will definitely be visiting again soon. I found the octopus very tasty, I liked it better than most places I've tried.

    In comparison to other AYCE sushi spots that I've been to I would rate this one in the middle as "okay." It wasn't bad but I can't say it was exceptional either. For $39 per person for AYCE I've had better at other sushi spots. First off they don't really have sashimi for ayce, you have to pay $1 extra per piece which is kind of a bummer at least for all sashimi besides salmon. We opted to get a bunch of regular sushi pieces instead and I would say the quality is between okay and good. None of the fish had a fishy taste which is a thumbs up for me. The rice was okay, some pieces of sushi held together while others did not. I will say I enjoyed the ambiance at this place. They have a cute design and the restaurant itself is fairly small, like 8-10 tables or so. In terms of service, it was decent though they forgot about 3-4 dishes in total from my placed order. It definitely got annoying to flag them down to check so note to double check with the waiter so they circle everything so you won't have to wait for an order that isn't coming. Overall the experience was good, I enjoyed the food and what not though I personally probably won't be back because I feel there are so many better spots. Note - They also give ice cream for AYCE though it's not on the menu so be sure to ask! I got a chocolate ice cream with no extra charge. Parking - It's okay they have a lot but it's shared lot next to like a car shop so plenty of cars just parked around. I took the last spot so you might have to park on the street.

    Sushi FIRE is right! They live up to their name! Service was friendly, quick and efficient, the ambience was really cute! Very unassuming, indoor and outdoor seating. It's located right next to a vehicle service center but there's an entire row of parking reserved for the restaurant. The food was amazing! 10/10 recommend and will def be coming again!

    This place was amazing!!!! The ambiance is super chill and relaxed. The fish all fresh and not overly packed with rice. Kudos to the sushi chef, who were also helping serve!Outstanding! The service we received from Ivy, despite having a full tables, was above and beyond & price was also fantastic!

    I'm on the hunt of trying sushi restaurants in the surrounding areas in Duarte and Monrovia to find a place to be a regular at. This was not it unfortunately compared to quality of fish that I'm looking for. We had the option of AYCE but didn't want to eat everything after the items we tried. For $40 for AYCE it's a good value for some people. But i'm here for quality not quantity of sushi. Server said it was a better deal for AYCE so we tried it out. There were a good amount of people here for a Thursday night. 2 solo gentlemen and another couple at the bar with this and another family sitting at the table. There's about 7-8 tables and 10 bar seats altogether. Even though it was AYCE nothing stood out to me that I had to eat again or want to come here again. Sushi was okay. Lots of rice in the hand rolls and sushi. Which I guess is normal for AYCE. I had to ask to refill water a few times. When my water cup was done and I got tired of asking I was done with the meal. There's just better places out there. Nothing special here.

    Service was outstanding. Ivy was my server and she was super nice, attentive, and went the extra mile. Sushi/kitchen staff were very efficient. Ambience was really really nice. I sat outside and it was a cool night. Sushi was good, but not the best I ever had, but still satisfactory for me. $39.99 AYCE sushi or $49.99 AYCE premium sushi. Parking can be an issue during the daytime so get ready to park on streets.

    Cute sushi place in a convenient location. Parking here is very easy and plenty of space. Server was friendly and the service was quick, food didn't take long to come out. The sushi was delicious, the all you can eat has a decent sized menu (only on Sat and Sunday). Def would come here again and a great spot for great tasting sushi!!

    Inside Sushi Fire restaurant

    When you get inside this place , You will feel happy with the bright colors and pictures inside and all arrange neatly . The drums and cats pictures are around the place. They have a little Cherry Blossom corner too! Food is really good . Price is reasonable to those delicious rolls we ordered! Ivi is the lady that served us . Its her first day without anybody assisting her and she did a good job! Always happy, courteous and attentive to our needs. I give this place a perfect 10 !

    We've been going to Fire Sushi quite a bit lately, and since the new ownership, everything has been fantastic! The food is fresh and delicious, and the all-you-can-eat option is a huge plus--it lets us try a little bit of everything. We're big sushi lovers and usually go about twice a week. The chef, Winston, is amazing--always friendly, welcoming, and he creates the best sushi plates! The restaurant is very clean, the staff is friendly, and service is always quick. Highly recommend Fire Sushi to anyone who loves great sushi and great vibes!

    Empty restaurant!

    Service was nonexistent! There must have been 3 other tables that were occupied and server kept skipping over us . Almost like she was doing it on purpose? I took my order to the sushi chef and he apologized and then after gave me 5 star service ! Not sure what that was about. Food quality was okay not great. Place was clean yet small prices were decent for all you can eat . I have my reservations! Parking is limited

    A nice spot for curry and high quality flavors. I was impressed by how easy it was to make a…read morereservation on Yelp, and we were seated quickly for lunch. My waiter was amazing and really went above and beyond, helping with the high chair (and sanitizing it for me), kids plates and drink cup, and swooping in within 30 seconds of a massive spill my baby made. SO impressed. The food was just as impressive! Order via a tablet at your table, and it sends the order to your waiter who confirms it. Their Chicken karaage appetizer was crisp outside and juicy in the center with great flavor. Their Wagyu Curry was great as well, with tender wagyu pieces and a nice curry base. Their chicken katsu curry was also perfectly cooked and tender as well. Will need to come back for dinner as no sushi at lunch.

It felt a little stuffy inside because of the hot weather, but they had a floor fan that helped cool the space. Ordering is done through an iPad, which made the process quick and easy. I ordered the Tonkatsu Curry with medium spice. The portion size was small, but the curry was flavorful with a noticeable kick, as I ordered medium spicy. The tonkatsu arrived hot, crunchy, and tasty. There is a parking lot in the back, or you can try to find street parking in the front. Service was a little slow toward the end of our meal, as we had to wait for our check and to-go boxes, but overall, it was a good experience.

The bathrooms are amazing btw with their warm seats and automatic everything. It was my first time having this dining experience where it was a set menu so I didn't know what to expect. Each dish was great and the pace was perfect because we didn't feel rushed to finish our food and were not waiting long for the next dish to come out. For those who are pregnant and have limitations on what you can consume - you won't be left out! They were so thoughtful to let my friend know what dish was coming out and since she couldn't have it, they replaced it with a dish she could have so she wouldn't be sitting there watching us eat. Very very thoughtful!

They offer the quality of the Wagyu. The experience leans more toward a curated meat tasting, with beautifully presented, juicy cuts that are satisfying without being overwhelming. Great service and nice attentive. The reason why 4 stars because of the tomato and raw vegetables portions. I'm not sure if they still serve Japanese tomato as they did in the past year, past year was a whole tomato, now they did couple pieces. Spending close to $300 for 2 people sounds over priced. I wish they would do better on the veggies snack and tomato .. those are cheap veggies not likely the meat. Hope they upgrade something to impress their menu. We don't expect the return.
