Literally the best sushi spot in the area for great quality fish. My significant other and I have gone here three times so far and everything we ordered was amazing. Servers are very helpful and patient in us choosing because it was my mother in law's first time and she normally doesn't eat sushi. We got her a veggie roll, chicken karaage, and cucumber salad and she loved it. We loved starting with the spicy tuna crispy rice as well. We get that every time here plus the Negitoro hand roll to end our meal. We've gotten the omakase which was delightfully flavorful. We also love the salmon avocado roll, salmon truffle roll, and another roll called the lemon roll with tuna and ponzu. Everything here is fresh and delicious. FYI there is no bento bowls or teriyaki bowls. Just fresh clean sushi. We can't wait to come back again.

Came here for lunch. I ordered the unagi don and it was good. The service was fast and nice too. Will be back!

My husband and I love sneaking over to Sushi Nakata for a date night. We always end up indulging before I can take pictures but this last time I snuck in a few. Service is always pleasant. The place is small but worth the squeeze. Take a look at some of our favoritepicks.

This is one of the better sushi spots in the San Gabriel Valley. There are a few sushi spots in the area, but they are not truly authentic. Sushi Nakata has wonderful quality and the sushi is legit! If you're looking for quality, this is the spot to go to! They have this June special for $65 which was a great deal for the quality and the servings I got. Great job, Sushi Nakata!

This is a regular sushi place for me. I am very picky when it comes to sushi. I normally like sashimi but was in the mood for sushi. This place is normally packed and when I went by there was no one there. 30 minutes later all the tables were taken. The service is spot on, very attentive waitresses and sushi chef. The place is very small on the inside but they have outdoor tables and about 8 chairs at the sushi bar. If you are in the area I highly recommend that you make a reservation as it is always busy.

4.5/5 Food was delicious, service was great, and the ambiance is authentic and calm. The one I didn't get a clear picture of was the Lime Roll. Absolutely delicious! I love sushi and trying out different places. We came here 8:00 on a Thursday for 2. Wasn't so busy that you needed a reservation, but there were a few groups eating. We got the house wine but didn't get charged for a refill. Not sure if intentional or not but I won't complain! The sushi was overall pretty good. I thought the rice was like an 8/10. The yellowtail was really good. They don't cheap out on the portions of seafood they provide. Their quality is also pretty good. The sweet shrimp was mildly sweet, but it didn't wow me. It comes with shrimp head too, those were pretty good actually. You're supposed the eat the whole thing, that was new for me! The place is great. It seems like they expanded for more seating next door? Great intimate date spot or even just for grabbing dinner w family and friends. Meal was about $100 for 2. Minus the sweet shrimp, could be a little cheaper. But that's okay, just about average price for good sushi nowadays! Plenty of street parking along the Main Street. The Google maps location is slightly off. It's around the corner, not directly on the Main Street.

The food here is amazing! I've been coming here since I was in middle school. Which was 15 years ago, so this place has been here for a long time. My boyfriend and I love coming here during lunch for the specials. The best thing is the fish is super fresh . The customer service is always top tier and the owner is super nice. They just purchased the other building next door so now there is more tables to be available soon.

I had seen this restaurant during the Farmers Market on Fridays and told myself I needed to stop by. I stopped by recently for dinner. The restaurant is on the smaller side with a few tables inside, a few outside, and a few areas around the sushi bar. The servers were great. They were both friendly and attentive. I tried a few items: spicy garlic edamame, ono sushi, salmon truffle roll, shrimp tempura, and a California roll. All of the items tasted great. The edamame was delicious. The ono was probably my favorite. The salmon truffle roll was packed with flavor. The shrimp tempura had perfectly fried shrimp. The California roll tasted good. Unfortunately, they were out of toro, so I need to stop at another time to give it a try. I recommend this restaurant if you want to have yummy sushi.

Introduction: - Hidden in the corner of Old Town Monrovia by Basin 141 - Came here with my cousin for lunch. We were craving some fish! Pros: - The Nigiri was extremely fresh and fatty. It was delicious! - Provides you an array of sets to give you an opportunity to try out all different types of fish. - Servers were extremely attentive. - Small space, but provides a nice warm cozy environment. Conclusion: - This place is a sushi gem of Monrovia. Serving quality at its finest compared to the sushi restaurants down the street. Highly recommend to try out.

Lunch menu for the win, sushi chef is Japanese so feels like legit sushi place in Monrovia. $28 for that nigiri or charashi bowl and it comes with a side salad and miso soup I feel the nigiri is the same price but a better deal as you get a choice of roll. The best fish was the red snapper it just melts in your mouth. Other pieces of fish were just as fresh and delicious too. A couple ordered live lobster sashimi and the chef dismembered it so fast that the antennas and legs on the head part were still moving when plated. You can get lobster sashimi as long as you pre-order ahead of time.
