    Sushi chef working his magic
    Shanye J.

    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!

    Sushi Fire is not bad and not amazing. The service was quick and the food came out. Did not opt for the AYCE, but judging by the quality of the chicken and the tempura I would say this place isn't the best quality in terms of what they present to the customer due to their AYCE option. The price is on the higher side as well. The Bento Box was $17.95 and the Seafood Udon was $18.95. The competition for Japanese Fare near the area is intense and Sushi Fire is a local place to dine if you live in the area.

    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!

    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.

    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 !

    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

    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!

    The sushi was excellent and the chef, Cheng and his crew made our experience awesome. They hardly put rice which is a plus and the food tastes really tasteful. Try the hand rolls and the cucumber salad as a side and all the sushi!

    Finding a sushi place that consistently delivers is rare, but Mikomi has been reliable every time…read morewe've gone. The sushi tastes fresh, and one thing I appreciate is the rolls are always made well, nothing falling apart halfway through eating, which honestly says a lot about consistency. My kids were big fans of the tonkatsu ramen and finished it without complaints (which parents know is its own review category). The happy hour prices are also worth mentioning because you can order a decent amount without feeling guilty afterward. The biggest standout for us was our server, Bang. Friendly, attentive, and especially patient with my kids' food preferences. He was accommodating when we asked to modify dishes and gave recommendations. Service like that makes a restaurant memorable. This has become an easy choice when we want sushi in the area, especially for family dinners.

    On a Thursday night, around 8:30pm, we thought it would be a good idea to order one roll over the…read morephone and pick it up. How difficult could that be? We placed the phone order for (1) roll and (2) macron ice cream things. (Which are already made and sitting in a freezer) We were told 25 minutes and so we waited about 20 minutes before I walked in to pick up my (1) roll, the only thing that required someone to make it. The front reception area was chaos with large parties waiting to be seated and scattered smaller groups of 3 or 4. I bypassed all that to get to the front and instead of a person is a tablet. All the human workers were scrambling around which told me they were "behind". I asked a worker about my phone order and she told me five minutes and took my payment. 35 minutes later I'm still waiting among the crowd who are also waiting to be seated. Workers are scrambling around like they just got trained that day. Confused looks and panic ruled the evening. Workers continued to jog past me to handing out drinks and trays of items and never checking back in with the small crowd. Confusion over clarity remained the theme as large parties asked why they haven't been seated yet. Small parties asked when they would be seated and I waited for (1) roll. A purely bad experience from start to finish from a place I've enjoyed in the past. The moral of the story is to expect the unexpected. Even though I've had pleasant experiences in the past here, I have to report the details of this visit based on its own merits and not prior visits. I ended up with my roll and it seemed like it was sitting back there somewhere ignored, like the groups waiting to be seated. It seemed not so fresh and like it was made 25 minutes earlier.
