The best sushi experience in Pasadena currently. Prices are reasonable, and the fish is top quality. They also are one of the ONLY places that serve, on menu, a vegetarian Udon. It is FANTASTIC. 100% recommend, and will be back likely this week again.
Amazingly fresh and yummy food! Some of the best sushi around and reasonably priced too. Service is friendly and efficient. Great neighborhood sushi restaurant.
Matsuri has been a family favorite for years - a quality family-owned restaurant. The owners are from Japan, if that’s a useful heuristic for you.
Their food is always delicious, and I find their tempura in particular, is wonderfully crispy and light. We ordered the Matsuri boat, and the variety (it includes teriyaki chicken, Tonkatsu, tempura, and sushi) as well as portions are generous. I’ve also thoroughly enjoyed their homemade croquettes as well.
The service is attentive, warm and polite, which explains why there are so many regulars. I always look forward to visiting, and can’t wait to go again.
I’ve been here for several years they always have fresh sushi & good appetizers. All the staffs and sushi chef are friendly & attentive they make specials upon request. Sushi bar serves appetizers & sushi only, dinning area serve regular menu & sushi.
Sushi places live or die based on how the rice is prepared. The fish plays a secondary role to the rice itself. This place knows how to prepare sushi rice and I would think it is a closely guarded family secret. The ginger does not appear to be from a mass market supplier. It has faint green edges in some places. Wasabi is pungent almost hand ground. To be located in Pasadena of all places, what a surprise. Nice local place for credible sushi.
Kind of expensive for sushi, but the other dishes were flavorful and well presented. The restaurant has a nice, calm, and welcoming feel. Great for a date night or something.
How kind and friendly! Everyone was so welcoming :) we got chirashi and lunch special (pork katsu with crab rolls). The price was reasonable and they were VERY filling! The thick-cut sashimi felt very fresh and the variety was good.
So nice to have such a homey, mom and pop restaurant specializing in authentic Japanese food.
Check out their delicious Japanese food!
Gambate to the Matsuri people!
