Reviews Japan Express

I consider myself a long-time patron of this place at 12 years. My coworkers have been coming here for even longer so it's safe to say that it's a Glendale institution and highly popular with City and Utility workers as well as local cops. First thing I ever had here all those years ago was a spicy teriyaki chicken bowl and it was (just) good. My go to dish eventually became the beef sukiyaki since it included so many onions (nomnomnom!!!), but now I have been getting the beef bulgogi the last few times which I think is pretty good too. Prices here have been slowly on the rise but I can't really blame them as inflation has hit everyone and they are likely paying more for their supplies and food also. I tried to support them at least once a week during the COVID summers but now it's maybe just once a month. That's not a reflection on their quality, just my own priorities and availability to get over there nowadays. I order online or via phone and it's usually ready within 10-15 minutes. The gyoza is good and so was the masago roll when I used to get it. I've never tried anything else from there as I know what I like and only get that now. It's small inside and can only seat maybe 10 people as COVID really turned it into mostly a take-out place now. Still the same sushi chef behind the counter too from when I started coming here so that stability is comforting.

Delicious and clean food. This place is clean and the food we ordered was a little a little set we paid approximately $2.50 potstickers we got with three little tiny ones. I ordered the teriyaki chicken and beef which was super yummy. The meat tasted fresh texture was perfect. Wife ordered shrimp yaki soba. It was a little on the sweet side tasted a tiny bit like ketchup. We will definitely be back to this restaurant just not order the yakisoba. If you like it sweet go ahead try it because the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Portion size was a little bit smaller than other make out places, but it was good quality food

Red dragon roll , Philly roll , spicy California roll , crispy spicy tuna roll , spicy salmon roll . Missing the Jalapeño Dynamite appetizer in the picture , those are definitely a must have & two drinks, total of $78

Ordered 4 different sushi rolls and they were all great. Large rolls with large amounts on meats etc. definitely will be our new sushi spot.

Came here on a e recommendation, so expectations were high, and I must say, the food was very good! Did California roll, spicy teriyaki beef, and sukiyaki beef. Portions are appropriately sized, and the food came out fast and hot! Highly reccomended!!

I used to come here a lot like every week and then times got tight so maybe every month or every other month. So maybe I've eaten here or ordered from here rather more than a dozen times but each time has gotten worse and not just the food; I don't particularly like the atmosphere here anymore so I will not be eating there anymore.
