Best Japanese Restaurants in La Habra

Good food, it just took a long time for everything. It was busy tho so we weren’t really bothered and understood. Food was delicious!!!!!

Kyle and chefsito were amazing! Fabulous service fabulous cook!

The food was good, the service was great. The chef was very friendly and respectful. It is very pricey now though.

I’m a guy who doesn’t usually write reviews. Good food and service are expected when I go for a night out. But, Azabu is a place where simply goes above and beyond expectation to give you a high-end, premium experience. It is so awesome to them in Whittier! Definitely a place to go when you want to impress a date or you have a special occasion to celebrate! Every time I come, I keep ordering different things on the menu, and I am never disappointed! The sushi is always high-end. This time I ordered the Charred octopus as an appetizer - I mean, it was SO GOOD! I’ll be ordering this again and again! Also had their delicious signature sushi roll with wagyu beef slices. It comes out with an incredible presentation, unveiled with mysterious smoke swirling around it. The wagyu is melt in your mouth, and I absolutely LOVE the subtle tinge of smokiness that is imparted to the flavors. On past visits, I have ordered Japanese beers and sake. They have some delicious high end options that you don’t get at other sushi restaurants (even really good ones). On this visit we explored several different cocktails. Every single one was smooth and well balanced. We were celebrating, right, so I was delighted to try their top level old fashioned., and yes it is actually worth the price tag! When you come here, this is not a place to skimp, it’s a place to celebrate and treat yourself to a premium experience. Don’t be afraid to try the high end items, I promise you, they will be worth it! I have to give a shout out to Christine, our server - So attentive and friendly! No five star experience is complete without staff that can make you feel relaxed, comfortable, and welcomed. At Azabu you get a super special, high-end experience without any snootiness or snobbishness that could ruin the vibe. Everything about the place is a high-end experience, from the beautiful murals on the walls to the chairs you sit on. The owners of Azabu know how to dot their I’s and cross their T’s!

We have never been to this location. The Tustin location is great, so we decided to try the Brea location since it is closer to home. It’s a beautiful interior and a lot bigger than the Tustin one. Even seating outside which I would like to try during the summer. The food was delicious and possibly better. The servers were fantastic and very helpful. They played a prefect balance of always around but not overly interrupting. The noise was minimal when we first arrived but got louder as more customers were seated. Seems the noise level would be reasonable for a JBBQ place normally but loud if filled to the brim with people. We look forward to going back to this location.
