Sushi Kiyosuzu

This place made me feel like I was in a small town in Japan. The quality of sushi blows away anything at the mall a few blocks away and the pricing is perfect. The tempura was a good variety and only $5.50!!! If you want some authentic Japanese great quality food this is where you should be going!!

A nice and cozy mom and pop Japanese restaurant that has lots of options for a great value. The sushi is fresh and very tasty. They have a counter for omakase style dining too. The owner is super friendly and caring. Overall a great spot for a nice meal.

How could I say I love the restaurant here. Just after shopping at the shops at Santa Anita and searching for the restaurant nearby, it's the first and closest choice. The store is small and might be somewhat old-fashioned, but you could feel the warmth. The decorations are specially designed while the staff are welcoming. The chef responsible for the sushi bar could always talk with the customers sitting at the bar. We ordered the recommended Salmon sashimi, it's fresh enough. The seafood Hotpot is rich in taste and the fish inside might be cod of great taste. It's also a special hand roll of scallops topped with grilled cheese. That's great and might be with the locals' taste.

Ordered the Rainbow Roll, Ringo Roll, 2 pieces of Sweet Shrimp, and a Yellow Tail Roll. The Rainbow roll has a beautiful assortment of seafood from tuna, salmon, yellowtail, halibut and shrimp. Each piece had good texture, and was well portioned. The Ringo Roll salmon was very good and interesting using dried apple to add sweetness to the fish. The sweet shrimp was soft and beautifully presented with the shrimp heads being fried separately as the other half of the dish; alternatively the shrimp heads could be offered as part of a soup. The Yellow Tail Roll was also a good pick that was very smooth. The atmosphere is very relaxed and peaceful here with a gradual pace of traffic coming through here. There is a shared parking in the rear of the building that is ample enough.

Update 12/2023 Still a solid sushi and Japanese food option. They could use a little more help on the service side as it’s truly an older couple who run the place. So don’t come if you’re in a rush. ****Original Review**** Excellent quality sushi and other Japanese dishes. Been here a few times and each time is consistently good. There is a parking lot in the back but it gets crowded with all the businesses in the area.
