Yume Japanese Restaurant Manhattan Beach — Restaurant in Manhattan Beach

It's a dance club...I mean a sports bar...I mean a sushi restaurant! Maybe it's a bit of all three mixed into a fairly large space that provides you various options of seating styles. There is outside seating with a street view, an actual full bar with leather couches, the standard dining area and accompanying sushi bar, as well as the party and private rooms in the back. For some reason there is a Google quote stating there is an ocean view from Fusion. There is not.

A large menu ranges from king sized rolls of various creations to a full kitchen assortment. Rolls tend to be stronger than sashimi, but overall the quality is good. Prepare for sauce! Fusion Sushi at this location tends to go heavy on their sauce.

Evenings, especially on weekends, are loud. Music is pumping throughout, and when you walk in to the restaurant you pass through the bar section. Prepare yourself for laser lights (yes, really), big TV's with sports on them, and a gaggle of heavily cologned, well coiffed people. Pass through this and you'll get to the restaurant - which is just as loud - but dense with couples on dates, families out for a fairly priced sushi, and even the occasional celeb or sports figure.

The wait staff are friendly, the take out is always correct and fresh, and you can get your drink on if...

My husband and I were invited to a surprise party at Fusion Sushi. They have a VERY SMALL back room where they host parties. It's all the way in the back of the restaurant and there's karaoke tv's and a sound system. That room, should technically and comfortably ONLY hold 25 people. Instead they section it off and accommodate 3 parties (at the same time). There was a party of 12, 17, and 22 all in this VERY small room, UNCOMFORTABLE. My butt had to brush against the back of a stranger in order to move around. It was SUPER LOUD (with conversations and raunchy rap music). The hostess of our bday celebration asked if we(17) could be moved out to the main area (after 40 mins), they kindly obliged. Aaah nice a peaceful out there. So, go in and check out the room before you book. The food was ok, IF YOU'RE NOT HEALTH CONSCIOUS. Lots of sauces spread over the sushi and most are full of imitation crab stuffed inside. Now, remember I said, this was a party and the hostess ordered for us. I was pretty hungry so I ate it. It was good, but because I do my best to cut calories, I felt guilty. One final suggestion to the staff, you should changed that rap music, some of the language can be very offensive and there were young kids with their parents. It was blaring in the...

Whenever we crave sushi, we always go to Yume (formerly known as Fusion Sushi). Last time, we were a party of 10 and they brought foods out sporadically rather than all at once. So people didn’t feel comfortable eating and we were waiting on all the foods to come out before all of us started eating.

We used to enjoy our dining experience at Yume. It is important to note that the current condition of the bathrooms is below satisfactory. The last time we ate here, there was a large puddle of standing water in front of the sink in women bathroom with soaked wet paper towels thrown in it. This is not only very unsightly, but very dangerous due to fall hazard. I personally was near slipping due to all the water on the floor. I agree with other reviews that since management of this restaurant changed, the service and cleanliness is not up to par. In addition, they previously accommodated our request when making reservations for large parties, but not anymore.

I have to mention that the food quality is good, but unfortunately we won’t be back due to lack of customer service and reasonable facility...
