Aoki Japanese - La Verne

TERRIBLE! The plates were dirty, and the windows were full of bugs. The table was sticky and wobbly. Service, I can say the old couple host this restaurant, no service and kind of rude. Miso soup was salty. The food I didn’t want to taste when I saw the bugs.

Long time family owned restaurant. Our visit was early on a Saturday before lunch crowd. The atmosphere and decor were nice with good amount of vegetation and patio seating. I ordered a unagi bowl it was enough food but they really skimped on the eel. Five thinly sliced eel to cover the rice does not justify for full price unagi bowl. I am disappointed.

Not good Japanese food. The tempura was hard and thick. Service not that great either. The water tasted like chlorine. I make better miso soup at home. No A/C, and expensive for what you get!

Daepal came to see me. Mother and Father were so cheerful and it was fun to watch. I hope you both are healthy and happy.

As soon as you enter, you'll notice the rustic yet inviting atmosphere. The service was warm, prompt, and friendly, which added to our overall experience. The sushi was delightful—crispy and juicy. We shared a bento box and a rainbow roll for lunch, and it was simply fantastic. We were not only impressed with the quality but also with the generous portions that left both of us satisfied. As always, my friends, remember to stay joyful, be mindful, and strive to be your best selves. A great meal can make a difference in the world, so let’s start making that change!
