Azabu Restaurant

I was a bit skeptical of eating here based on reviews I see at another review site. We did not have to wait long to be seated. The place was almost full. I have to say that I like the sushi rolls. They do taste good overall, but what I don’t like is that the sushi would break apart easily. At one point while I was grabbing a roll, the shrimp fell off and landed on my shirt versus going into my mouth. The other thing, the sushi chefs were fast making their rolls, but the wait staff service was slow overall. Even on two occasions each sushi chef had to wait or call on the wait staff to do something like serve food they made or pick up a check. Chances are slim if I want to eat here again.

Been going here for past 8 yrs weekly.. not monthly.. weekly! Awesome spot. Fernanda and her mom are the best!! Jack is the Master Chef and Sue gets down in the kitchen with anything you want quick! Sad to hear that Sido has sold the place to The Chicken cope guys and it's goin to be a "high end" spot now. And everyone is going to be fired. Sux because all the new owner (James and Jason) need to do is just remodel and keep the vibe the same. If not, trust me it's not going to work. Awesome and well liked and loved Employees make the biz work. Not the other way around.

Love this place! A small whole in the wall but a true gem. In Old Town Whittier, this place is awesome if want to take a sushi lover. From the fresh and delicious sushi to great hospitality from the staff. Special thank you to our family members that introduced us this now our favorite sushi restaurant.

This review is specifically for Monica! We had the pleasure of being served by her and she gives the restaurant such great representation. We have been coming here off and on for years, but her service was one of the best experiences of the restaurant. So accommodating, helpful, and she just has such a happy and sweet demeanor!
