WORST SUSHI RESTAURANT EVER!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!! From start to finish this place should not be in business. We got old menus with old prices and got a huge surprise when we got the bill that had more expensive menu items. On the menu we got the price for Salmon Nigiri was $7.50 and the bill charged $8.50 and rainbow cali roll on the old menu we got was $18 an they charged us $19. The service was like we never got any. The sushi chef didn't understand our order and gave us both a cali roll and a rainbow cali roll, when we only ordered a rainbow cali roll, so they could overcharge us. We told the sushi chef we only ordered the rainbow cali roll and not the cali roll and he rudely pulled the plate from my hand and took the cali roll off as he rolled his eyes. The owner was also rude and didn't care he served outdated menus and we didn't get a water refill for 20 minutes and had horrible customer service. On top of all this the food was overpriced and disgusting. The salmon nigiri had no flavor and was not buttery at all. Same thing with the cali rainbow roll. We couldn't even order more food because we had no server!!!!!! Save yourself the time and money because after I left here I had to go home and...
Read moreAn orange county staple for traditional style sushi for over two decades. The prices are not cheap, but when you're getting some of the best bluefin or yellow tail in southern California you'll know why it was expensive. The daily consistency of this place is incredible, and over the course of the past 20+ years I'm hard pressed to remember ever being served a substandard cut of fish. The sushi bar here is incredible and the chefs are all exceptionally talented. I believe that ordering a chefs choice sashimi dinner speaks volumes about a restaurants quality and this is my absolute favorite here. Some other highlights to the menu include the fresh live scallops (when in season), the Seal Beach roll, maguro, and one of my personal favorites, sweet shrimp. In addition to sushi and sashimi they serve a broad variety of fully cooked appetizers and traditional Japanese cuisine including tempura, calamari, kobe beef skewers, teriyaki, and sukiyaki. The sushi bar is always busy, but there is normal table seating here too. Come in, have a sake, and enjoy some of the best...
Read moreKoi is one of my favorite spots to get sushi in Long Beach and the Seal Beach area. The quality of the fish is superb and is always super fresh. They have a large sushi bar that wraps around, perfect for watching the sushi chefs create their mini works of art. The seats are very close to one another so it’s a little cramped when it’s full (so try to go on the weekday if you prefer the sushi bar and want more space). There is something for everyone on the menu. My youngest niece is super picky, but started to be adventurous while eating here the last time. She ended up loving the poke and yellowtail sushi. It’s easy to fill up on appetizers since they have so many good ones to choose from. I like the agedashi tofu, chawanmushi, crispy rice with spicy tuna, and miso black cod. They also have 2-3 types of oysters with Kumamoto being part of the regular types. My favorite sushi items to order are the salmon, tuna, and yellowtail sashimi appetizer, scallops, toro, uni, and live...
