    Truly authentic and quality Yakitori and Izakaya small plates plus my fav beer, Asahi Super Dry on tap!! The perfectly sized skewers are expertly prepped and grilled…….Hamachi Kama, yellowtail cheek, is another delightful Hasu special that pairs well with sake. You can’t go wrong with Hasu, it’s even better than what I’ve experienced in Japan!’

    Can’t ask for a better deal and healthy option than Shinsengumi Shabu!!! I mean most ingredients for the hot pot are fresh, high quality……not processed!! And the price for AYCE is too good , even better for seniors like me!!! I sit at the counter and always order the Tonkotsu broth with both pork meats and an ice cold jumbo mug of Sapporo……man, life is good!! But whatever you order, you always walk out with a truly satisfying feeling. And icing on the cake is outstanding, friendly service by Riley, Kenda and Yonosuke!!! Of all the Shinsengumi restaurants through out the Southland, this joint is my absolute favorite and I highly recommend for family, friends and even hot dates!!

    One of the best Chinese food restaurants in the South Bay/Gardena area. For the prices, go for lunch which is served until 3:00 PM. The dishes are the same for lunch and dinner, but considerably cheaper. Their menu is extensive - both Szechuan and Cantonese dishes. The restaurant is a storefront business in a small shopping mall, so the interior is very plain, But the food is great and well worth a visit.
