I honestly dont understand how this place has such great ratings??!? It is SO out of date and disgusting.... it is hurtful to even explain. I am sure it was great once upon a time, but dont expect anything upscale or stylish. Whoever is managing this restaurant is obviously trying to give the least to its customers that it possibly can.. it is disgustingly apparent that they have not renovated in 20 years and their clientele is no where near first class. Then again, they are not serviing first class food. I will say that their food is OK but no where near what they charge for it. They are asking for prices no where near this calibur. I know this is an older establishment that used to be successful, but whoever owns this obvioulsy does not believe in upkeep or creating a better product for better future business-- very short termed?? I heard great things from locals who used to live in the area a while back-- apparently it hasnt been kept up. Gone down with the area?? Bottom Line: Good Potential but NEEDS renovation and inspiration. When you have motel signs with push in letters all around the restaurant ((inside and out) = not good :)
Pros: OK food, only OK Japanese restaurant in Downey
Cons: Gross atmosphere, poor service,

This place is awesome.. the Sushi rolls are the best I've had. For the best experience sit at the sushi bar and interact with the chefs...Try the Cucumber special Roll (a bit Pricey) but well worth it...the Volcano roll , and the LA Roll are also great..Albacore Sashimi is delicious. Every Item I had there was very good. Great atmosphere .. you might wait a bit for a seat at the sushi bar but it's well worth the wait...
Pros: great sushi, friendly and fast sushi chefs
Cons: some of the Items are a bit pricey
