Sushi Yoshi — Restaurant in Torrance

Been craving for authentic Japanese nigiri sushi so I decided to try few different places for takeout. Today’s lunch visit is a mom-pop store hidden in an old plaza off Torrance area. I have been here years ago and recall the owners passion for singing karaoke and baseball. While decoration is no-frill but the sushi was very solid and price is affordable.

I ordered the nigiri sushi combo #1 Togo. Good quality of seafood (better than supermarket takeout for sure). Their tuna and white fish (halibut) as well as house marinated Saba were better than some dine in restaurants quality. The rolls were tasty too.

One thing that stood them up than most is the rice. This places sushi rice does taste authentic Japanese sushi rice with the right balance of vinegar in it while many fast food chain or non-Japanese chains failed to understand the importance of rice.

Overall, a very solid sushi takeout place with affordable pricing....

Sushi Yoshi is totally under rated, and this is one of the OG sushi spots been in the area for more than 15+ years as Nov 2022! They are one of the best sushi places in the area with very reasonable price for the quality and hidden gem in Torrance. They are very simple and done everything right. Sushi there are very fresh and delicious and always hit the spot.

Quick tips: This place is mostly takeout, and you should phone in to place your order. They always make their sushi fresh, and it will take some time during peak lunch/dinner hours. They are in the same plaza as Starbucks and next to another OG Japanese...

This place only do togo/carry out only. No waiting area. Messy chairs and tables everywhere but that’s fine by me. I come for food not atmosphere. Upon walking into place an order. The lady stop me from order because she was packing 1 order which is ok by me. But after I paid for the food and still putting money in my purse, she wave me like she wave a dog and said go wait outside. Whaaa I don’t even treat homeless like this.

Terrible service and will...
