Grilled Yellowtail Collar and bento combo

Rachel H.

Always have such good service here! The food is great and I highly recommend the grilled yellowtail collar as a starter!

Came here with a friend post-Pilates and honestly couldn't have picked a better spot to unwind. The yakisoba was fire, perfectly charred, great flavor. The no rice roll was simple but the fish quality spoke for itself. No notes. Service was genuinely warm and attentive without being in your face about it. Good food, good vibes, good company. We'll definitely be back.

5/5 - Absolutely Incredible Sushi Experience! I visited Yamashiro Restaurant in Redondo Beach, and I am honestly blown away. This is hands down some of the freshest, highest-quality sushi I've had in the South Bay -- maybe even in all of LA! From start to finish, every dish was beautifully presented and unbelievably delicious. The sashimi platter was perfection -- thick, buttery cuts of salmon, tuna, scallops, octopus, and more. You can literally taste how fresh everything is. The Amaebi (sweet shrimp) was so delicate, and they even served the shrimp heads crispy, which was amazing! The appetizers were just as impressive -- * Crispy baby squid with a creamy dipping sauce * Refreshing cucumber salad * Perfectly blistered shishito peppers * Fresh mixed greens with a bright dressing * And the grilled yellowtail collar... SO juicy and flavorful! The long wooden nigiri board was stunning -- every single piece was melt-in-your-mouth good. The quality, presentation, and flavors are truly next-level. You can tell the chefs take pride in every detail. If you're a sushi lover, this place is a MUST. I can't wait to come back!

Spicy Garlic Edamame Yellowtail (Hamachi)

Mireya M.

This is easily one of the best sushi spots in redondo beach! My boyfriend and I came for dinner once Friday night and immediately were greeted with the most friendly staff almost immediately from the moment we walked in the door! The ambiance was so cute while they were playing early 2000s music! The food its self is some of the most fresh fish I've tasted while being here! I highly recommend this place as a staple sushi spot here! I can't wait to go back already! (:

Loved the Negi Toro with fresh wasabi. Had 4 of them. Hamachi (yellow tail) was good as well. I will be going back.

Delicious! The prices definitely reflect the quality. My salmon was delicious and fatty! For appetizers we got Shishito Pepper and the fried squid. I got a Salmon Double Double and my husband got a Caterpillar Rolll. I got a piece of halibut to try and it was also very tasty and fresh. Portions are small but the service is great, the food is fresh, and its easily accessible next to plenty of parking.

Great service, delicious food, beautifully presented! Perfect for a special occasion...Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Not only are the sushi and other dishes fresh and delicious, the service is excellent. The beer tower and sake (they have a great selection) washes the sushi down very well!

I really enjoy coming to this sushi restaurant. The owner/host is always so kind and attentive and happy to help. And it's just a nice place to get away to for lunch, with some yummy food. I like to try different items each time I come and I've enjoyed everything I've tried thus far. I really like restaurant itself; the outdoor patio is a nice spot to eat and the booths inside are comfy.

I went for dinner with my bf at around 8 pm, and we sat down pretty quickly as it was relatively empty. This is my second time here, and the service is always fast; the servers are nice and attentive. It's a nice, cozy spot with light music playing in the background. The owner (I think was the person who spoke to us) was so sweet and informative regarding the food and drinks. We got an albacore double-double roll, which was excellent and had a nice crunch on top. The star of the show was definitely the sushi burrito! My boyfriend finally convinced me to try, and it is a must-have. It's light and flavorful, definitely recommend. Overall, always a great experience when visiting & recommend if you're in the area !

If you're looking for a great Sapporo black beer , negi Hama and negi toro cut roll - this is a go to spot in Redondo beach. Inside there's plenty of booths, jazz piano music playing in the background and a clean restroom. The staff are pleasant. I do not recommend eating outside if it's windy- learned this the hard way. There are heaters outside but we fought the wind to keep our food from flying. The tempura dinner - PROCEED WITH CAUTION. It feeds 3-4 people. Jumbo pieces I was not expecting that. The miso is so so but the yummy ginger dressing on the salad was great. I just wished they added more. I ate my food too quickly but managed to take a picture of the jumbo tempura since I couldn't finish it all . There's two other great sushi spots in the area but this is my go to for beer and negi toro rolls. They have many types of rolls, raw and cooked, some Korean dishes too. I am a sushi snob, but this place was clean and no fishy sushi. read more

Asaka recently updated their menu and have been promoting their happy hour, so I had to check it out. Decent option for sushi but without happy hour I'm not sure I'd return. They have his cool promo of buy one get one 50% rolls but unfortunately it's kind of a scam as their rolls are $22-$25 each, making the promotion worthless. Lots of great options in the South Bay and directly down the street to go to otherwise. Happy hour alcohol prices are great. read more

Asaka is always my go-to in the Southbay for sushi! The service is phenomenal, and I'm always able to get a seat without a wait. They have great happy hours and 1/2 off rolls which is the best deal in town. The sushi rolls have great proportions with not too much rice, and they also have high end fish for the outside which I don't see too often. If you're looking for a delicious and good time out for a meal- I highly recommend Asaka sushi! read more

100% best sushi in the area imo. The fish is consistently delicious and fresh, comes in generous portions for the price, and arrives in the most beautiful presentation platters (even for the humble avocado roll!) - Atmosphere is chill but very clean - Indoor seating has great air conditioning - Staff are all very sweet, fast service when I visit for lunch - Menu is diverse but executed well! Great options for non-fish or non-rice meals (chicken teriyaki, steak, fried tofu, veggie tempura; cucumber wrapping to make rolls rice-free, can also swap white rice for brown rice) read more

Are you a lover of sushi but have tried to cut back on how many carbs you eat? Do you find yourself asking the sushi restaurants if they can hold the rice in their rolls and substitute with soy paper? Do you see restaurants often use way too much mayo or sauce, and you'd rather have the option of the sauce on the side? If you said yes to any of these questions, then Asaka sushi is the answer for you. We were hiking through the beautiful Palos Verdes area and felt that we deserved our dinner after all our steps. After searching for all the available restaurants in the area, which didn't have a lot, we stumbled across Asaka. But even without the competition, Asaka demonstrates what it means to eat healthy sushi. You can see from our pictures that we ordered almost everything off of the no rice roll section of their menu. That's right! No more having to awkwardly ask if they can hold the rice. There's a whole section of the menu for folks like us! Notice the sauces on the side? Perfect for dipping or consuming in moderate quantities. And ifykyk, but if you don't, that pink color is high quality soy paper - don't be surprised! And if you're not like us, and love options, their menu is "almost" as big as Cheesecake Factory - tempura, grilled, hot and cold appetizers, salads, on top of the sashimi, sushi, and fusion sections. Stop by - you'll find something for what you're looking for. We also had a husky with us and he was well taken care of too. Definitely dog friendly. read more

We loved the fresh albacore that she recommended to us. They get their albacore fresh here. It's not frozen like at other places.

Tonight, my boyfriend and I were craving sushi. Since I recently moved to Redondo Beach from Culver City, we haven't yet found our go-to sushi spot. After checking Yelp, we decided to try Asaka Sushi. As soon as we walked in, we knew this place was special. The atmosphere was lively with a large group celebrating a birthday, complete with kids dancing to the Happy Birthday song. We were seated immediately, and our server greeted us right away. We ordered the family boat, cheese wontons, and spicy edamame. Let me tell you, my biggest pet peeve is when restaurants serve hot food cold, but everything here was perfect. The family boat was just the right amount of food. It started with delicious miso soup and salad. When the boat arrived, I was amazed at the amount of food--it seemed a lot for someone who's 5'2", but my 6'2" boyfriend and I managed to enjoy it all. I'd definitely go back and order it again. By the way, the spicy edamame and cheese wontons were delicious too. read more

You can absolutely tell they use fresh fish and the taste of everything was *chefs kiss*. The sushi chef was also so kind to make us an extra bluefin tuna so both of us could try.

I ordered an Arnold Palmer to drink -- it was more iced tea than lemonade. They have complimentary miso soup. I ordered 3 rolls. Geisha Gone Wild: takes the cake out of the 3 by miles. This one just has a combination of flavors that your taste buds are extremely happy with. I love the mango that they use on top, it adds a nice texture of smoothness and chewiness to it. I honestly can not describe the flavor of the sushi roll other than it is good. It's great. I love it honestly. Munchy Crunchy: I was not impressed. I have had better crunch rolls from other sushi joints. It was not bad or anything but I just wasn't wow'd by it like the oh my geisha roll. Top Secret: The roll that you do not know what it is. I like surprises. It was not great. I believe they put a sliver of lime on the top of the roll that gave it a way too face forward citrus punch to the tongue. I didn't like it. No sauce or ginger helped it. Service was good, they were clearly understaffed as the 2 women were running around crazy, checking out tables, seating guests and dropping off plates. The ambiance is nice, the employees are very friendly and loud. It is a very casual sushi spot. Parking is of course atrocious in riveria village, it's metered. There's seating indoor and outdoor.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Asaka Sushi, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Located conveniently in Torrance , Asaka Sushi offers a cozy and welcoming atmosphere perfect for both casual dining and special occasions. The ambiance at Asaka Sushi is both modern and traditional, with tasteful décor that includes minimalist wooden furnishings and subtle Japanese art. The lighting is soft, creating a relaxing environment, and the seating arrangements offer both intimacy and comfort. The service at Asaka Sushi is outstanding. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and promptly seated. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and our server was knowledgeable about the menu, providing excellent recommendations based on our preferences. The highlight of Asaka Sushi is, of course, the food. We started with the miso soup and a selection of appetizers, including edamame and crispy tempura. Each dish was prepared to perfection, with fresh ingredients and balanced flavors. For the main course, we opted for a variety of sushi rolls and sashimi. The sushi was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented. The signature rolls, like the Asaka Special Roll, were a delightful combination of textures and flavors. The sashimi platter featured melt-in-your-mouth slices of tuna, salmon, and yellowtail, which were some of the freshest I've ever had. - The Dragon Roll was a standout, with its perfect balance of spicy tuna and creamy avocado. - The Uni (sea urchin) was particularly impressive, boasting a rich, buttery flavor that's hard to find elsewhere. - Don't miss the mochi ice cream for dessert; it's the perfect way to end the meal. While Asaka Sushi is not the cheapest option, the quality of the food and the overall dining experience justify the price. It's a great spot for a date night, celebration, or just to treat yourself to some high-quality sushi. Asaka Sushi exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, excellent service, and outstanding food makes it a must-visit for sushi lovers. I highly recommend Asaka Sushi and look forward to my next visit. read more

I was at this location when they first open up, and the server and food are "so so" compare to the Palos Verdes one, and which make me to drive all the way up there for sushi. I decided to give them another try last Monday after servile of months, since is more close to my house. and WOW, it was completely changed. The servers and sushi chef finally said "irashaimase" when we first walk in, and sit us down right away. The server who served us for that night with smile on her face and chat with us beside only taking order. I mean 'chat', they finally "talking" and not being a "order / food runner machine". My friend overheard the next table want to speak with the "manager", and a lady in purple show up and talk about the music with them, and I realized that they maybe have new "management" for this location. I didn't record any one in charged when I was here. For the food, I just order salmon sushi and some appetizer, (which is on special this month). I don't want to spend too much since we just one a "trying mood" today. Overall, I saw lots of improvement from my last visit, and I am DEFIANTLY will be back again since I am able to find "Asaka standard" in this location too. P.S.. After overhead the conversation next table, I pay attention to the music, It is actually really good. I should bring my mp3 for the "lady in purple" to load them for me. (hopefully they are kind enough to do so!!!!) read more

I was there last Friday with my family, I always want to check out this Asaka place for a while. Finally I have time today, and I was there a little bit early for their happy hour (I don't even know they have happy hour untill I saw their banner), but the server is kind enough and give the happy hour menu to me to look at before it is actually time. I able to place my order in and she tolds me she is going to file the stuff I order which is "not happy hour" first and get me started and do the "happy hours" one later when the time is up. I am really preciated for what she had done for me (I am not sure about the management will mad about that). Anyway, I had a sashimi delux and the fish was fresh, and sushi burrito from the happy hour menu and suprice me it was actually real "burrito" when it comes up. My wife order salmon teriyaki and was great... and they have brown rice (without extra charged, nice)... my kid got the soy bean and potato salad from my wife's dish...potato salad?? yupe ~believe it or not... I was actaully the best baby food my kid every have. Overall I happy with my visit and food in this place, it is a bit drive from my place (10min), but I will definatly come back and check out the rest of the food on their menu.... BTW the server is soo nice and friendly that she actually "play" with my kid when she is screaming... Asaka I will defanatly come back.... read more

This Asaka is awful. Service is terrible and the food was not very good either. I wonder if the owner is different compared to the other Asaka close by? It took me 50 minutes just to receive a veggie tempura platter and my seaweed salad that was drenched in vinegar. Everyone else I was eating with finished their food already. They even got their sushi late. We all ordered salads and those came after the first two rolls came out. My sisters ordered the garden salad. It was dirty, slimy, and weird black stuff was on the radish and lettuce pieces so we immediately returned it. The steamed rice that came with the tempura tasted like cardboard and the miso soup did not have enough tofu and was not miso enough it was very pale. The kitchen was ridiculously slow! The manager/owner was not even walking around to make sure things were going well, he sat outside and ate his food while everything else was disaster. Their register didnt even match up with the pricing on the menu, we were over charged $10. My food was simple and now I feel so sick I want to rip my stomach out. I will not go there again until probably a year or two or until I hear that things have changed tremendously. The decor was nice but everything still had plastic wrap on it and they were open. Tacky!!!! read more

So after a fantastic beach day, we yelped a place to grab some sushi and drinks as usual. Asaka Sushi caught our attention not only because it was close by but also its controversial ratings... As we didn't want to limit our options with others opinions, we decided to give it try anyway and make our own judgments. Great ambience! Loved its interior lightings, and the curtains behind the coaches definitely set this restaurant apart from others that we have been. We arrived around 8pm on a busy Sat and ordered Hot Sake, beer, Baked Mussel, Sushi Burrito (very creative and impressive combination), lobster roll, and some spicy tuna rolls. All were served in 20 minutes, which is not bad at all after sitting down with some green tea and edamame for starter. Food tasted great and waitresses were very friendly with mellow music playing at the background. Price is very reasonable as well. We loved the place because of the whole package and would definitely come back again if we are in the area. read more

I am a regular customer since Asaka first open. I go there at least once a week for either lunch or dinner. I decided to write something after reading some of the yelper's review. Asaka have a nice location, nice interior, and nice music. For food, I would think it is nice and fresh-- red lobster roll is SuPeR....For price, reasonable price, if you able to catch the happy hour and it is consider ChEaP. For services, I think it is good (perhaps my standard is lower??!!). However, I really want to find out where I am able to get a copy of the happy hour menu since every time I mention it to my friends, and I am unable to show them the happy hour special. Overall, Asaka is still a good choice. read more

I don't mind paying an extra couple of bucks because I enjoy their food so much, but I didn't see it listed on any of the menus or advertising so I felt a bit blindsided by it.

This is the best I've had in the Southbay and maybe top 3 in LA in my 15 years here. I'll admit I ordered only 3 items, but you can tell. salmon nigiri- must have been belly. Tiny bit of wasabi they added. Outstanding. Scallop cut roll- excellent rice. Warm toasted nori. Just enough flavor in the scallop and mayo. Not overpowering. A great balance of all ingredients. Spicy tuna crispy rice- a common starter, although not traditional, but when done right, it's very fun. They put a s'mores-like build your own twist on It . Great idea and great quality. Gives sushi Roku a run. I can't wait to go back and try more fish to confirm what I assume. Everything is great.

Lots of it. And free too. In a busy plaza but pulled into the lot and right into a space. Saw several others and was prime dinner time. However, it was also midweek. Not sure how it is on a weekend. Walked in and was offered any seat in the house. Grabbed me a booth. There are tables and seats at the bar as well. No outdoor seating. Large groups would probably need to be separated. Place isn't huge the seating doesn't appear to be able to be moved around to accommodate huge parties. Call ahead and ask though. I may be wrong. Service was excellent. Friendly though I probably came across as "leave me alone to eat". I was starving as I hadn't eaten much last week as I was recovering from being sick with no appetite. Best way to drop weight. Not close to my fighting weight. Would need to be sick another few weeks. Anyway - I warmed up after eating and had a few brief interactions with their team. Food was great! Grabbed Cucumbers and Seaweed. And a Sashimi Combo. Thought the touch of having dry ice give off steam was pretty cool. It was a quick, simple delicious meal. And I'll definitely be back for more.

If you're looking for a top-tier happy hour spot in Torrance, Sushi Gone Wild is a must-visit. We…read moredecided to sit inside this time, and the vibe was perfect--lively enough to feel like a night out, but still relaxed enough to actually enjoy a conversation. Happy hour is Mon-Thurs 11:30am to 2:30pm and 5-6:30pm. The highlight of the experience was easily the service. Our waitress was incredibly nice and attentive; she was quick with the drinks, knowledgeable about the menu, and made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we sat down. It's rare to find service this warm and efficient during a busy happy hour. They started us off with a bowl of edamame at the table to snack on while we looked over the menu, which was a great touch. We ended up diving deep into the happy hour specials: * Fried Shumai: These were perfectly crispy with a savory, tender center--definitely a great way to start. * Tiger Eye & Heart Attack: If you like bold, flavorful rolls, these are the stars of the show. Both had a fantastic kick and were plated beautifully. * California Roll: Sometimes the simple things tell you the most about a place, and this was fresh, cool, and hit the spot. Between the quality of the rolls and the stellar service, this is easily one of the best values in the area. We'll definitely be back soon!

We found a better place across the street who has better selection of food, big plates too and staff is more friendly and attentive. It's funny how things work out. We won't be coming to this place anymore, instead we will now go to Sushi Fusion.
