"Pork Katsu Curry is tasty! The pork katsu is like a crispy pork chop; crunchy on the outside, boneless happiness inside! The medium spicy curry is like Mary Poppins, gentle, stern, and comes out of nowhere. I used it as a dipping sauce for everything. Potato Wrapped Shrimp (3 Pieces) was the best part. It's so beautifully made and yummy. It's like eating a shrimp sandwich wrapped in potatoes... Would eat again. Curry in the morning! Curry in the evening! Curry at suppertime!"
"My comparison would largely be to Coco Ichiban. I feel like this Chicken Katsu Curry was more flavorful, rice was perfectly sticky while not overcooked, and the katsu was nice and fresh and crispy. Probably the best curry I've had. Sausages are great too. Over all it felt maybe more traditional Japanese? But I've never been, so grain of salt and all that. I got enough for two meals, so I'm looking forward to reheating it tonight. Definitely ordering again sometime. I just miss Coco Ichiban's potato croquet!"

"Always clearly the best of choices, specials and consistent taste and quality. THE EXCEPTION is the Chilean Sea. Bass Kushiyaki. The portion of fish for the price is absurd. Don't miss going to this "newer" hot spot."
"Do not order the Bluefin Toro, Lobster, Salmon Bowl, a lot of rice and very thin slices of fish (4 slice salmon, 4 toro, and a tablespoon of minced lobster) - thinner than a standard sushi piece - it's ridiculous. For the price, it's a big rip off. Mind as well order sugar fish "trust me" for $34 bucks."

"I was craving some Sush, so I decided to give this place a go. I loved everything that I ordered: Hama Peño, the Moon Light & the Barrington Roll. All were presented nicely & so organized for just a take out order. Loved the combination of flavors, fresh fish, & sauces. I liked the variety I chose a lot. The jalaoenos in the Hama Peño were not hot to me (but I usually eat habaneros so maybe it is hot for others). I loved the fresh garlic & fresh cilantro & jalapeño on the yellowtail fish with the ponzu sauce. I was not in the mood for too much rice, & I love sushi rolled in cucumber, such as in the Moon Light roll,, especially in the summer ... it's so refreshing! There was a lot of fish in the roll & the sauce was also very good. The Barrington Roll was the only thing I ordered with rice in it. It was very flavorful, with a lot of fun toppings, including some greens & purples (very colorful), & it also came with ponzu. Every bite was slightly different. The order also came with chopsticks, ginger & wasabi in the side. I was out of sake so I paired everything with a dry rose I had at home, which also went nicely. It's so hot in L.A. right now, & alcohol prevents food poisoning. I almost always have a little bit of wine or sake with sushi. So yes, must pair nicely with the drinks. ;) There were a lot of delicious sounding menu items, & it was hard to narrow down what I wanted to try first. I would definitely consider ordering again in the future, either the same things or some of the other items I was thinking about."
"I ordered from Oops! through a catering order and there was enough food as mentioned on the menu. Highly recommend the salmon skin roll. The sashimi sampler was good as well but wish there was more variety of fish on the sampler. It was only tuna, albacore, and salmon. Otherwise everything was still good as expected! The food arrived on time and sushi was overly warm or anything like that. "

"Overpriced, but the soup was full of veggies, was super fresh and tasted homemade. The eggroll was not large by any means. Compared to others it was a small egg roll. Overall it was delicious just not a good value for the price. I'd get the LG soup next time. Wor Wonton Soup 馄饨汤 Jumbo Chicken Egg Roll (0ne piece each order)"

"Ordered the Spicy Karaage and it was so good! Spice level was decent but I wish it came with a sauce. Also ordered the Red Spicy Ramen, Level 2 spice was decent as well. I wish I could order more meat with the ramen. The side order of rice and pork was one of my favorite things I ate! Not a lot of spice but very very good!"
"At this price point, they don't even care to give you all the standard toppings like green onions, corn, wood mushrooms and bean sprouts but let you only choose three. Packing is bad. They put the order sloppily in a plastic bag without proper sealing or any utensils. Taste is just good and fresh, portion is on smaller side. Will not order again. You can find better ramen options"
