OOTORO WALNUT

OOtoro Sushi & Grill is a Japanese restaurant located in the Diamond Bar–Walnut area, and in my opinion, it offers some of the best-quality sushi and sashimi in this neighborhood. It’s easily my favorite Japanese restaurant in the area. Today, my family and I visited to celebrate my younger son’s 20th birthday, and everything we ordered paired together beautifully. We started with our favorite sushi selections, followed by the sashimi deluxe and a chirashi bowl. We also ordered the salmon skin salad, which complemented the meal very well. Everyone in the family was satisfied, and the overall quality of the food really stood out. I remember this place being much busier in the past, but today it wasn’t too crowded. Because of that, the service felt even more attentive and relaxed, which made

My five star favorites were the king crab chawamussi and the menma, perfectly seasoned which still makes my mouth water. The sushi and sashimi is always on point at Ootoro. I thought the premium chirashi used to come with uni but not this time. Even without it, you won’t find a better sushi restaurant in (or near) Walnut, highly recommend it! Photo of receipt attached for cost details… enjoy!

I’ve been here a few times, and it definitely lives up to its high online ratings. The sashimi is extremely fresh and generously portioned. The assorted hand-roll sushi platter offers a great variety, and I really enjoyed the flavors. The service is warm and attentive. If you’re a fan of Japanese cuisine, this place is a must-try.

Where to start where to start, I was extremely blown away by the quality of this place, like seriously. I'm somewhat of a sushi fanatic and I like to try new places all the time, and it feels like I won the lottery, I think even the pictures show just how good everything looks, tasting even better. I wish I knew exactly what I got but I went with a group and everything just came out, but for sure the sweet shrimp and the toro were on the top of my list. Salmon was really good quality too, if you want a bit of everything I believe that sashimi plate will do amazing, grab a shrimp head soup on the side to wash it all down. With our group came an actually decent waiting time for food to come out, it wasn't too long and it was on a Saturday night. The servers were constantly topping off waters

Customers for over 15 years. i don’t come as often especially for the past 7-8 years but I have seen the changes of the restaurant throughout the years. Most importantly, I’m a big OMAKASE person and ai travel to tons of places in the country, Hong Kong and in Japan for Japanese food so my feedback is based on my experience and part comparison to other places. 📍 Location & Parking Ootoro Sushi is located inside the Hing Wah Lee Plaza, right next to Hing Wah Lee Jewelry.
