Best Japanese Restaurants in San Gabriel

When experiencing the maid cafe come in with an open mind and heart to have fun! If you go along with the cute vibes and energy of the place it’s really a fun time! The maids are extremely friendly and the food is great!

Incredible evening, staff was very knowledgeable and helped guide us through our selections. Will return again soon. Fabian did a stand out job.

Chef Eric was amazing! Everything tasted just right. We felt like there wasn't enough air flow so the air quality was not so good.

My husband, I have such a wonderful experience when we are there , we brought my sister in law for the second time she is from Mexico she is on vacation so we brought her again she loves food there. Thank you for wonderful experience.👍

If you're craving authentic Japanese food, Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Men-Ya in Alhambra is a must-visit! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with an authentic vibe that transports you straight to Japan. I started with their famous Japanese meat skewers—absolutely delicious! The yakitori was perfectly grilled, with just the right amount of char and tenderness. The flavors were spot-on, and each skewer was a delightful burst of savory goodness. Next, I had the ramen. The broth was rich and flavorful, with a great depth that comes from hours of careful preparation. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the toppings (from soft-boiled eggs to tender slices of pork) really elevated the dish. It's easily one of the best ramen bowls I've had. To round out the meal, I enjoyed a glass of cold sake. It was smooth and refreshing, a perfect complement to the meal. Overall, everything was great. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out quickly without sacrificing quality. Whether you're a fan of yakitori or ramen, this place does it right. I’ll definitely be back for more!
