Large space with good variety of menu options, good quality sushi. Conveniently located near the 605 fwy (Washington). Great ambience.

Delicious food and wonderful service. Terry was so pleasant and made the whole visit feel welcoming. Highly recommend Yume Japanese Restaurant. read more

i absolutely love this place!! it used to be me and my family's local sushi spot until we moved, but we still drive 30-40min to visit. the food is amazing, service is great. You might have to wait to be seated if you go on the weekend during dinner time since it does get busy. there is plenty of seating and decorations make you feel relaxed and enjoy your meal. the ice cream tempura is a must! read more

My friends and I decided this place to be our halfway meet up point for an early dinner. Free parking is located in the lot next to the restaurant. We ordered couple of appetizers such as Edemame, Takoyaki and Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice. All of them were all delicious. We ordered most of the recommended rolls and my favorite was the Golden Tiger Roll. The rice was cooked well and each slice of roll was just mouthwatering. Service was great. We were definitey asked often if we needed anything. The place was packed when we left. I highly recommend doing a reservation if you are planning to eat dinner or anytime during weekends. read more

Yume Japanese Restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

This is my all time favorite sushi place! I regularly come here and each time my order is a Monster roll with spicy garlic edamame, occasionally I'll add the potato roll depending how hungry I am. I love dining in, the vibes are always cozy, relaxing with the music they play, and I love the dim lighting inside. I've been to many sushi spots but Yume will be my #1. The food is so fresh and the rolls are always well made. I will always recommend this place to everyone(: Not to mention they make the BEST spicy garlic edamame! The service here is always swift and friendly. The food is flavorful, fresh, and you can see that the cooks really take their time when making the rolls. read more

It was our 3rd time back last weekend on a Sunday afternoon. Place was real busy even after lunch hours. We waited 15min before getting seated which wasn't bad all. I would've given 5stars bc everything we ordered including the matcha beer which I've tried for the 1st time was superb BUT the hot sake was meh just like last time. It tasted burnt. The only reason why we ordered it again is bc maybe it was just a bad batch last time but nope, it was confirmed that the quality fell short. Also the service of bringing sushi to the table took forever (almost 45min!) I get that they were busy but I found out that one of the female server didn't put in our order! I'm assuming she forgot? Idk but when the guy server rang the order & the sushi came out less than 10min. ‍ I'm normally the type to complain right away bc she didn't apologize but honestly, we were hungry & just wanted to eat & leave. Will we come back? Mistakes can happen & service here is usually great so yes, we'll be back. read more

They have an extensive menu with a lot of delicious-sounding rolls. I got the Snow Cone Roll and it was amazing! We also got the gyoza appetizer. Everything was delicious!

The rolls were really good, but the wait was pretty crazy. We sat down around 7:05, ordered, and didn't get our food until 7:42. Almost 40 minutes just waiting for rolls lol. Food was good, but I don't think I'd come back if the wait is always like this. read more

I came to Yume Japanese Restaurant with a friend because we were looking for a halfway place to meet in the area. It was a decent restaurant for us to catch up and seems great for the locals, but I do not recommend going out of your way to try it if you are not in the area. Upon pulling up the parking looks pretty business. I was still able to get parking, but I can see parking get more scarce during peek dinner times. There was a sign at the door that the Rolls are Buy 1, Get 1 Half off from Monday - Thursday. I can see that deal luring in customers. The restaurant was modern in decor with touches of cultural paintings. There were many booths, half booths, and a sushi bar. We sat at a half booth. I appreciate that they gave us a 4-top for 2 people so we had space for all the food we ordered. Even with a larger table it was a tight fit for everything we ordered. My friend and I tried a good variety from their menu. We shared Salted Edamame ($6), Salmon Skin Salad ($13), Pico Roll ($18) Zen Roll ($18 value, $9 with bogo deal), Ninja Sashimi ($40), and an Udon ($14). We both also had the Lychee Glow ($10/each). I want to point out that the restaurant was extremely cold during our visit. We wanted to order hot tea but there was something broken about their hot water machine? Not sure why they couldn't boil some hot water. It's really off brand not to have tea at a Japanese restaurant. As the food came out they gave us 2 side salads and 1 miso soup that came with the items we ordered. Had we known there were salads we wouldn't have gotten the salmon skin salad. The salmon skin salad was overly dressed and really soggy, when the crispiness of the salmon skin is my favorite feature of this type of dish. Both of the rolls were a little loose and soggy. I preferred the pico roll over the zen roll. We only picked the zen roll cause it was one of the healthy options but in 2 different pieces I had gross sinew in my tuna and it was so chewy I had to spit it out. The ninja sashimi was nice, as it helped us load up on protein while still being healthy. The udon was plain and bland, not recommended. We got this cause it was so cold and they had no hot water for the tea, so we got it to be warm, but it was pretty disappointing. I can see why the locals like it. Pricing is fair. Service is nice. It was actually packed when we were leaving so I think we got in right before the dinner rush. I would come back if my friend wanted to come back here to meet halfway, but I really wouldn't go out of my way to come here otherwise. read more

I'll be honest, what got me here was the 4.7 rating and needing to find a spot that was midway between me and my friend. I stumbled upon Yume on Yelp and decided to make us a reservation for a Friday night. Definitely recommend making a reservation, there were a good amount of people waiting when we arrived and we left, and we got seated right away. Otherwise, there is waitlist you can join when you arrive if you don't mind waiting. The place it self is pretty big and it's very nice inside. It has lantern all around definitely Japanese influence, which makes it more fun to be inside. They nicely set up the table and have a wide variety on the menu. We decided to order shishito peppers plus 3 rolls to share: the ex-girlfriend roll, yellow rose roll, and the moon roll. All were yummy in their own way, I'd recommend them all! read more

It gets the sushi fix satisfied without having to drive to DTLA or Pasadena or Buena Park. I live very close and this is the only Japanese cuisine near me. Then again, this place would be my top choice if I had to choose a favorite restaurant within a 5-mile radius. The ambiance is very nice and intimate. Servers are very friendly and responsive. I've been here a few times already and they have pretty good promotions for their rolls M-Th, and their Japanese beers, BOGO for $1. The food here is tasty and I will return again. For the price point and distance, I like this place. read more

I recently moved to LA, so I'm still figuring out where all the good restaurants are. My friend recommended Yume, so I decided to try it for lunch today and I was honestly so impressed with the quality of the food! The fish was super fresh with absolutely no fishy smell, and everything was sooo delicious. Our server, Terry, was also amazing! When I mentioned that it was my first time here, Terry was super friendly, explained everything really well, and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. It made the whole experience so comfortable and enjoyable! I'll definitely be coming back again! read more

Sashimi Salad The parents from Guangdong always order vegetables every time. In Japanese restaurants, they always order salads. This salad contains various types of sashimi, which is refreshing, not greasy, and not monotonous. Garlic Seasoned Green Beans This is so delicious. The tender green beans are soaked in the sesame garlic sauce, which perfectly suits my taste! Oysters Although they are small in size, they are very delicious! 5 pieces cost only $17. What kind of bicycle do you want? Sashimi Platter It's simply stunningly beautiful, both visually appealing and delicious. It features 8 different types of sashimi, each looking incredibly delicious. All the ingredients are of high quality, including truffle snapper, sea urchin roe, fresh scallops, and coral shrimp, succulent tuna and salmon, along with freshly grated wasabi and small strawberries Sea Urchin in Hand Once you take a bite of this, the sea urchin is wrapped in nori and is brimming with sweet and fresh flavors. There's also crab meat sprinkled on top. It's so trendy ??The variety of sushi rolls is extensive, and the second one is available at a 50% discount, allowing you to taste various flavors. Both of the rolls I ordered had shrimp inside, but only the outer layer was different in terms of fish and seasoning. Personally, I prefer the tuna on the outside, with some pineapple pieces adding a rich flavor. The overall atmosphere of the store feels like being in Japan. It combines the traditional Japanese restaurant style with a touch of modernity. At the sushi bar, you can see freshly prepared sushi. The restaurant has a large space, making it suitable for group gatherings or dining for multiple people. There are also many choices of beverages. This time, I drank peach-flavored and tea-flavored beer. The fruit flavor was rich, and the matcha was very smooth! read more

Yume has a great lunch special which included the Bento box 2 item combo for around $21 so you are looking at a protein or main dish, roll with an appetizer. Spicy tuna is fresh. The lychee drink hits, like my friend said it makes you "buzzed happy." The ambiance is very cute I would describe it as modern and trendy, very clean, but comfy enough to fit a big party. Service was pretty top notch because 3 different servers kept coming around to fill waters and ask for our orders... the only thing I suggest is check the table to see if the party is done with their food or has the check? they did give our check twice. Maybe our party of three was a group of girls who chatted for a good amount of time during their lunch specials so they were being polite to make room for others (lol) but it's ok I had fun and would go again! read more

Good quality sushi. A lot of variety; more than the typical rolls you normally see. Came by myself because I was passing by; the restaurant was packed on a Saturday.

Yume Japanese Restaurant - Zen Roll - Japanese Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

What a neat little restaurant. Bit of a random location, but a huge restaurant with easy parking. MANGO SALMON SPECIAL- Everything was delicious. I loved the mango salmon special, the fish was definitely high quality and I loved the idea of substituting rice with imitation crab. A great calorie substitute & the hint of mango was a great add. While it is unique, it was $20 for 5 pieces, so fairly pricy. It is something I haven't seen anywhere else though. BENTO- It's a great price for the lunch special. $17 for salad, soup, tempura & 2 other items. They did not skimp on the portion, there was plenty of tempura & chicken. We weren't super hungry, so the bento was actually good enough for 2 of us for a light lunch. I noticed a lot of tables around us where the bento wasn't finished if each person ordered one. SERVICE/AMBIANCE- Great! Easy to get waiters attention, calm and peaceful vibe, and beautifully decorated to really feel like you are eating in Japan/ not in Montebello! NOTE: If you are looking to eat a lot, or splurge on sashimi, the bill would come out to be fairly pricey ($$$). Their fish is high quality though read more

Look, there's not a lot of nicer options for food in Pico Rivera. And there certainly are limited options for a nicer spot that serves sushi. Well, Yume is that spot. The style leans more on the Korean version of sushi, however the quality is good, the tastes on point and there's enough variety that even those in your group who don't dig sushi will find something yummy to eat. A great spot for a date, small family dinner, or humble celebration. Truly a gem of the area. read more

What a terrific addition to the already thriving restaurant community of Pico Rivera! Yu-Me is located just around the corner of what is arguably one of LA's best steakhouses, Dal Rae, and that's okay because they do not compete against one another at all. Dal Rae is a high end and quite expensive steak and seafood restaurant whereas Yu-Me is a Japanese classics restaurant that is equally heavy on sushi dishes... The interior is a tad Vegas-y and nothing special, modern, a bit austere and trimmed out w neon, but you do get to enjoy the privacy of your own booths. They're comfortable too. The food is fairly represented in the well shot menu which is extensive. Can't believe they have what looks to be perfect pork cutlet curry (tonkatsu)! We order that as appetizer and I sub out the pork and opt for the chicken cutlet curry as my date does not like pork as much. The waiter explains the pork is more flavorful and is the traditional way but I'm okay w chicken tonight and vow to return for the pork. When the chicken cutlet curry arrives, it's even bigger and more impressive than on the menu page: a perfectly panko crusted and crunchy chicken filet is cut into large pieces and is surrounded by large spoonfuls of rice and bubbling curry in a pan that continues to cook the food underneath allowing the rice to get a crispy underbelly... think bibimbop. Delicious! I get to take a box of it all home and it makes for a great breakfast the next day with a fried egg! The sushi combo I opt for that is $29 is huge and delicious too, full of albacore, salmon, tuna etc as well as a spicy tuna roll that was really on point as well. Terrific value here, where the rubber meets the road. My date gets a fanciful roll of cut tuna topped with uni and says it is really good. I don't try it because it looks relatively smallish and, hey, I don't like uni, have always felt it can be had for free if folks were willing to just scrape it off their car windshields! lol All jokes aside, the waiter we had was so kind and attentive and took my direction to have the curry cutlet entree as an appetizer and only put in for our sushi entrees after we were done that I want to acknowledge him here. Wish I knew his name. I tip 20% on the $120 bill and feel as if we got every bit of a deal because we had 3 entrees, miso soups each, a shared salad, AND a $30 bottle of the excellent Sho-Nue Sake, which was clean with notes of peach and citrus. I look forward to returning to Yu-Me! read more

Who would have thought one of my favorite sushi spots would be in Pico Rivera? Yume Sushi has become a go-to for me, and I've been back many times because the quality of the fish consistently delivers. The sushi and sashimi are fresh, clean-tasting, and prepared with care. Outside of the raw offerings, the chicken katsu with curry is absolutely delectable--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and paired with a rich, comforting curry sauce that I could honestly eat on its own. Their drink menu is another pleasant surprise. The cocktails are bright, citrusy, and fragrant, and the matcha beer is a fun, unique option you won't find at many places. My only critique is that some of the portions on the sashimi platter feel a bit small for the price, especially compared to similar spots in the area. Still, the quality keeps me coming back. Overall, Yume Sushi is a hidden gem in Pico Rivera--worth trying, and even more worth returning to. read more
