Had a great dining experience with my family today. 1/12/25. Staff at the counter were very courteous and greeted us as we walked in. The staff member taking my order was kind enough to give detail on what comes with each order, which was awesome! We ordered the #21 & #18 combo. Food was ready within 8-10 minutes, so there wasn't much of a wait time. Overall the food was fresh and had great flavor. Will be coming back soon.
The ribs I got were mouth watering! Every bite I had melted in my mouth! It has the most amazing flavor! The great part is it came with rice, salad, soup, and two pieces of sushi! I will be going back to this place!
Been frequenting this spot for years whenever I'm in the Cerritos Towne Center. I usually get #1 teriyaki plate which comes with rice, oriental salad, and sumi salad (my fav of the 2). Their curry plate is good and comforting as well. I suggest calling in as it's usually ready within 10 minutes and makes for a good lunch break spot.
This is a good lunch spot that is reasonable and you may have leftovers. They are nice and service oriented. The place is small but clean and bright with a few outdoor tables. The tempura is crispy and fried just right. The cabbage salad is a great side and they give you more than enough. The only complaint is all the packaging. They serve the food as if you are taking it to go even though you eat at the restaurant. So much plastic and styrofoam. I don't understand what they don't serve people who are eating at the location on a paper plate and eliminate all the waste. When I was finished it felt as if I was filling up half the trash can. I plead with you to cut down on the waste. You may even save yourself some money.
Got the #19 Combo Special. So much food that's good for 2 people. We came back after 2 days and got the chicken breast cutlet, beef teriyaki and an order of sumi salad. They make everything fresh and to perfection. I can have their food on the menu everyday. The ladies at the counter are both nice and accommodating. The place is clean. There's plenty of parking specially at the back and it's closer to the restaurant.
