    Cheese Bulgogi
    Karen T.

    What makes this sushi restaurant unique is that it is Korean family-owned, so there are Korean dishes served along with Japanese dishes. My partner and I shared the rainbow roll, mango cha cha roll, lemon salmon roll, salmon bento box, and cheese bulgogi. I really enjoyed the creative specialty sushi rolls, with my favorite roll being the mango cha cha roll. It tasted savory from the crispy shrimp tempura, while the fresh mango on top added a nice, refreshing pop of sweetness. As for the lemon salmon roll, it tasted fresh and more citrus-forward. Surprisingly, the salmon bento box was very filling and balanced. This included 2 pieces of grilled teriyaki salmon, 4 pieces of California roll, mixed tempura, miso soup, and a small salad with dressing. For anyone who does not eat raw fish, this would be the perfect dish. For the cheese bulgogi, there was a sweet-savory soy garlic flavor. I liked that the meat was thinly sliced, which paired perfectly with the gooey melted cheese. However, it was a bit saltier than I'd like it to be. Some rice and miso soup was served alongside this to balance out the richness from the cheese. Service could have been better. It seems that the staff were not very attentive at times, even though the place was not busy. Nonetheless, all of the food was pretty good and there was a chill atmosphere. This is a solid sushi bar to visit for either lunch or dinner.

    Tried this spot with my partner on a weekend date and first impressions is that this place is quite clean. Upon entering, there's seating both on the left and the right side. There's counter seating, group tables, and MISC tables as well. There's a waitlist on Yelp to join so plan ahead if the restaurant is busy. Parking here in Pasadena can be a bit tough but not near Sushigah. Next to it is a huge indoor parking lot where it's only $1 per 2 hours, very much worth it. The menu here is very extensive, ranging from sushi rolls, sushi, ramen, udon, standard sushi apps, bento boxes, etc. Our orders were taken pretty quick, service I'd say was around a 7/10. We were checked on a couple times but seem like the staff weren't fully paying attention as I asked for some extra utensils and my partner asked for the other dishes that our order comes with but they were all forgotten, requiring a 2nd request before receiving our items. Other than that, service was pretty good. It was great that the staff was friendly and quick. -- WHAT WE ORDERED -- Cheese Bulgogi ($25) Rainbow Roll ($18) Mango Cha Cha Roll ($20) Lemon Salmon Roll ($19) Salmon Bento Box ($21) Out of all the rolls, the Mango Cha Cha is the standout. From the pictures posted, it seem to be the most unique roll and the most popular roll to try. Highly recommend trying this as it has a great flavoring balance between the ingredients and the mango on top. MUST TRY!!!! The cheese bulgogi is also pretty underrated. Although a bit on the expensive side, if you like both combined, this is the dish for you. Love the variation of the dish, and it was also cooked to perfection. The bento box is great as well, presented very nicely, and portion is huge I'd say. A great box to eat on the go or at the restaurant. Not too expensive as well.

    While we were walking around, we were craving some Japanese food and found an incredible spot! Sushigah staff were very nice and accommodating to us while we traveled with our cat. I ordered their bulgogi bento and WOW I was amazing. Huge quantity of food and you could sub rice for a California roll! The tempura was perfectly breaded with a great variety of different veggies and shrimp. The bulgogi was also well seasoned and marinated. My partner mentioned how great their tempura udon was as well!

    I ordered the Chirashi bowl and blue crab sushi. The chirashi bowl was enough for 2 people. It was so fresh and delicious.

    Found this Sushi restaurant owned by Korean Father & Son. Love the mural. Located at the corner of Raymond Ave, the quieter side of the street. Street parking or parking garage nearby. Easier to park. Not crowded like Colorado side. Service was fast. Small nice dining area with plenty of window seating. Food was on the spot. We ordered Cheese Bulgogi, Bento Box, Sashimi Salad and Salmon Roll. All was fresh and yummy. Nothing to complain.

    Late night sushi and it hit the spot! Everything tasted fresh craving more even when you are full! Can't go wrong with anything in the menu. Service was quick and friendly, location was clean, zero complaints.. The water tasted filtered which is a huge step up from pretty much any sushi spot.

    cucumber salad
    Luis D.

    Ordered via one of the delivery apps. Good selection of rolls, lots of baked and tempura rolls. The salmon skin roll was very good, the salmon skin was very crisp. The yellow tail, salmon and shrimp were good and fish was fresh. The Korean fried chicken appetizer was very good, nice light batter and stayed crispy even after the sauce. Cucumber salad was too sweet for my taste. Solid restaurant and will order from again.

    Sushi Combo B

    Stopped by Sushigah in Pasadena for a quick lunch and ordered a regular combo with some hot sake on the side. First off, I really appreciated that the sake actually came out properly hot, which isn't always the case at casual spots and made the meal feel extra comforting. For the price, the combo is a good deal and perfect when you want something filling without a long wait. The fish quality was decent overall. Some pieces tasted fresh and enjoyable, while a couple still had that slightly frozen texture, but nothing that completely took away from the experience. Service was fast and it's an easy in-and-out kind of place, which makes it great for a quick lunch. It's not a high end sushi destination, but it's not trying to be. For a casual, affordable meal in Pasadena it gets the job done. Overall a solid option for the price and convenience, and I'd come back if I'm in the area and need something quick and satisfying.

    Bulgogi entree with rice and miso soup
    Sabrina D.

    I went on a Thrusday @ 3pm and there was plenty seating, very chill. Great spot if you are eating alone or in small group. Waitress was very nice and food didn't take long to come out. I was very surprised at the size of our plates, it made the price very worth it! Ordered the Spicy bulgogi ramen but I wouldn't say that it's even spicy which is fine for me I'm not even a huge fan of spice. 10/10! My fiancee ordered the Bulgogi entree that comes with steamed rice & miso soup. They are not stingy with meat here and the meat quality is pretty good. 10/10 for him. The nigiri had pretty big pieces of salmon on top so the ratio of fish to rice was a little unbalanced, not enough rice. The salmon was good quality though, 8/10. I also got the baked salmon roll and it was suppose to be spicy but, again, not really spicy lol I loveeee me a warm baked roll though and it was delicious 10/10 Overall I recommend it for casual eats. I want to come back in the evening because their hours say open until 12:30am which could be a late night vibe! Must-try spot with amazing food!!

    This is one of the best sushi experiences I've had in a while and at a price point that is affordable, just makes me love this place even more. I feel like this place is giving quality well above their price point and I think it's just amazing. I came here about an hour before they close on a Wednesday evening, and I was greeted with extremely pleasant restaurant staff they were extremely accommodating to a special request that I made and they exceeded expectations on all fronts. Every item we ordered was very good and I can't wait to come back again. This place is also a corner spot so it's relatively easy to find, at least I think so and this is the perfect spot to go to when it's a little later at night for those sushi cravings!

    Love Roll

    Great food. Great service. Cute and clean restaurant. My bf and I tried this place out after going to Blick Art Materials across the street. The waitresses were so nice and welcoming. The food was fresh and delicious. We ordered the Sushigah Special and the Love Roll. The sashimi was fresh and the Love Roll had a side of fried soft shell crab that was just perfect. Everything 10/10

    Came by earlier for the first time with my cousins since we were craving some sushi and we were not disappointed ! Workers are extremely attentive and nice . The food also came out very quickly other than the baked muscles , but that's completely understandable and even then didn't wait too long for those . Very tasty and top quality food , along with the welcoming environment . Would come here all the time if I didn't live so far .. T^T

    Look at those tasty scallops!
    Kerri A.

    I really appreciate the great service here, very attentive. It's a go to for the BSCR roll for me. Generous amount of tender bay scallops atop a fresh California roll. Sitting outside on a sunny day is a real treat and I've always been lucky enough to get seated immediately without a wait. Parking in the school house structure is super convenient.

The restaurant has a nice, natural light filled space, and though it was busy, it wasn't too loud. It worked out well to go with two people so we could try almost all the options... - Scallop aguachile, avocado, salsa macha verde: Came with two shells, each with a little scallop, avocado, zucchini, radish, cilantro. Nice and refreshing to start. - Strawberry and vanilla French toast fingers, pistachio marzipan: A very generous portion of French toast with strawberry jam and pistachio sauce. Nice and crunchy crust. It was an interesting contrast to the aguachile first course! - Crab cake eggs benny: Two poached eggs on crab cakes. This was good, nothing unexpected, though I was getting pretty full at this point. - Summer berries, Scottish shortbread, white chocolate mousseline: This was the only dish we were disappointed by. The shortbread was pretty bland and the texture was lacking crispness. - Profiteroles, vanilla ice cream, strawberry ice cream, hot fudge sauce: Simple dessert but put together well. We both also ordered Purple reign cocktails, which went well with brunch. Overall it ended up being quite a bit of food and a good value for two.

After researching and making the trip to Pasadena numerous times, I never discovered the Pez Coastal Kitchen. I was here for lunch and walked into a small but impressive space, elegantly decorated, with both a dining and bar area. My seating was in the latter, not on bar stools, but at a table for two, because I was dinning solo. For appetizers, I chose the scallop aguachile. There were two small portions, each in a plastic shell, sitting on a bed of ice. While I am not fond of aguachiles because of the general overdose of citrus in them, this one really surprised me. While there were only small pieces of scallop, it had an abundance of small cubed cucumber pieces that provided the nicest contrast of crunch, juice and texture. The citrus was mild and well balanced. A wonderful start. I selected the fried fish burger for my entree. The fish was mildly battered, yet lightly crisp, to highlight the big pieces of fresh, flaky and moist fish that were literally, falling off the burger. It was a good stack, with minimum lettuce, tomato and sauce, so as to not take it away from the star, the succulent, perfectly prepared, flavorful fish. The bun was also well crafted, nice and fluffy on the inside, not dry, with a buttery brown on the outside. Easily one of the best fish burgers I have had. For dessert (the third course), I had to have the profiteroles with ice cream. One was with vanilla, the other with strawberry. Both came topped with dark chocolate sauce, that had hardened by the time of eating. A superbly assembled concoction, that provided the crackle and exhilarating mouth feel. I cannot remember the last time where at a Dine LA restaurant, all three lunch courses were so well presented and satisfying. One was better than the other. Overall, it was worth the drive, for an extraordinary dining experience.

    We visited this restaurant at the beginning of Dine LA for lunch ($35)…read more When we arrived, the door was locked and had to be let in by the staff though there were at least 5 other parties dining there. I thought that was a bit odd, but I guess it was to detract from unwelcomed guests (i.e. homless people)? Anyhow, we were seated right away and sat by the window which was nice! We were given the menus, but I had to specifically ask for the DineLA menu which I also thought was a bit odd since it seemed like they wanted us to order off their regular menu. Perhaps this was just an oversight. For starters, we ordered 1 of each that was offered: Ceviche Carretillero - Refreshing and brought me back to time spent in Peru! I preferred this option Salpicon - This was also refreshing and reminded me of chicken salad mix in a bowl though not sure I would order it without it being a part of a prix fixe. For the main course, we ordered: Saltado Salad - This had minimal protein and was not so satisfying when compared to a traditional lomo saltado, but the protein that was there was yummy. Aji Gallina - I really was excited to see this on their menu since I love this dish so much and don't see it offered too often at Peruvian restaurants. Though the sauce was good, the chicken was VERY dry and hard to chew (overcooked) so it took a while to finish this. In lieu of desserts, they offered Maracuya (passion fruit) and Chicha Morada (purple corn) juices which were yummy but the star of the show was their sangria which was delicious especially on a hot day. My only complaint about the sangria was that we were charged for 3 carafes when we only got 2. Once we identified this, we brought it up and just went ahead and enjoyed the 3rd one since we had already settled the bill. That being said, always double check your receipt!

    New Orleans inspired menu, had a DJ on a Friday night for vibes, service was normal…read more Pan roast was delicious, could use more seafood flavor but certainly a comforting meal. Creamy and tomato-y. Shrimp was cooked well but the mussels were a bit overcooked. Would probably get the shrimp one next time instead of house specialty. Shrimp and grits: shrimp was overcooked, grits were fine. Super cheesy! Oyster poboy: pretty good. Oyster isn't my first choice but it was done well. Came with fries but we upgraded to the clam chowder. It was only ok. Chowda tots: fries and tots were very crispy, cooked perfectly. Toppings though made it more like a salsa or loaded potato. Nothing about it felt like chowder.

    Saw this place in a TikTok video for "top 5 black owned fried fish spots" and since my friend and I…read morehave been on a mission to find the best fried catfish in LA, we headed over to Pasadena to check it out. Fish was good but service not so much. My friend went in before me because I was taking a video wanted to shout them out on social media but when I walked in the man looked up at me stared for a little bit and went back to loading the fish. I stood there looking at the menu he still never said anything. I finally walked over to my friend and asked if he acknowledged him when he came in and he said yes. I was ready to walk out but he wanted to stay. We decided on what we wanted and walked over to order and I swear it felt like he didn't want to hear what I had to say it was almost like I shouldn't be speaking let the man order and handle it. If that wasn't the case it's definitely the vibe I got. I asked him could he fry my fish hard he mumbled something and looked to my friend for his order. Guest what my fish wasn't fried hard......Lol Overall the food was good and prices were great but the service will keep me from returning.

    Stopped by a few weeks ago for the first time as I was craving some Jamaican food nearby…read more This fish market is no frills and can be concerned a hole in the wall. The gentleman taking my order was kind, but overall service from order to take away was slower than I anticipated. I was sad as I was really craving curry goat, but apparently they sold out 10 min before I arrived, which was at 7pm. Not many places to sit and eat within the market or outside so that was a bummer. If they put some extra money into the market by sprucing up the aesthetics and adding more tables and chairs, I think that this place would do even better. I would recommend calling in your order ahead of time before heading over to save yourself the wait.
