Best Japanese Restaurants in Montebello

Brought my girl here for her birthday. We live in Lancaster, so it was a big deal for us, but we felt the food was absolutely amazing. I loved the setting. Beautiful view, and I love dark places and relaxing music. The service was top tier. Everything came out very quick. It was perfect, for us, and we plan on going back sooner than later.

literally the best place ever!! if you want your life to be permanently changed with the power of moe, please stop by asayoru cafe!! most fun, magical place in the world. every girl is so so so nice and everyone is trained very well in providing wholesome fanservice. some of my friends ive taken worry that itll be a bit awkward since theyve never interacted with "cuteness" on this level before, but all the maids are so professional that they can adjust to everyone's level. ive had almost every maid and every single one always made everyone feel smile, laugh, and most importantly feel comfortable. on a more personal note, this place honestly helped me get over my issue of talking with people one on one, specifically with girls! i am much more confident in public now and it's definitely partly because of how kind the maids are here. i think my favorite part of asayoru cafe is seeing maids come up to you and ask about your hobbies, likes, your outfit, etc. it's really wonderful! new menu is so delish and the desserts are to die for! chekkis are so fun, especially homework ones!! and performances always get the whole cafe together as one!!! there's nothing like this place... please support this amazing cafe!

Mrs. Fish is good vibes from checking in to walking out. Friday night reservation was all great energy, friendly staff, and delicious food. Perfect for dining out on a date or with friends. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and the experience did not disappoint. I definitely would return.

Food was amazing. The special highlight of the night is the mochi dessert. If it’s not the best it’s definitely top 3 best dessert in LA

If you're craving authentic Japanese food, Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Men-Ya in Alhambra is a must-visit! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with an authentic vibe that transports you straight to Japan. I started with their famous Japanese meat skewers—absolutely delicious! The yakitori was perfectly grilled, with just the right amount of char and tenderness. The flavors were spot-on, and each skewer was a delightful burst of savory goodness. Next, I had the ramen. The broth was rich and flavorful, with a great depth that comes from hours of careful preparation. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the toppings (from soft-boiled eggs to tender slices of pork) really elevated the dish. It's easily one of the best ramen bowls I've had. To round out the meal, I enjoyed a glass of cold sake. It was smooth and refreshing, a perfect complement to the meal. Overall, everything was great. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out quickly without sacrificing quality. Whether you're a fan of yakitori or ramen, this place does it right. I’ll definitely be back for more!
