  • B & F Sushi - Ontario, CA

    Yes. I know you are like, WTF, what kind of name is B&F sushi. When my boyfriend first suggested we try this place...mm... 3 yrs back, I contested saying "this place can't be good, look at tthe name!". Well, boy was I wrong. Ever since we first tried this place, we went back EVERY week when we lived in Rancho Cucamonga in the Inland Empire.

    Now you may say, well, you lived in the Inland Empire, it's not like you had much choices for real sushi! Well, it isn't just that. Cuz now even though we've moved out west, I still once in a while drive 1 hour east, just for the pure purpose of going to B & F.

    The main sushi chef at B &F have become our good friend over the years. He is insanely generous to his customers, and has a great sense of humor. He has great knife work, and serves good honest fresh sushi at a very reasonable price. I even told him several times that he should make his portions smaller or else he will go bankrupt. But he is adamant about giving his customers their money's worth.

    The sweet shrimp this visit was HUGE and juicy that it was like a mini lobster lol. Great texture and fresh! We never had Ebi this large and delicious that I had to order an extra order.

    He piles on the uni when we only order one order. I'm a sucker for uni, and this was so sweet and creamy it could have ate it forever.

    The yellowtail is always so fresh, with the perfect blend of fattiness, and he cuts large thick slices thats practically twice the portion of most westside places.

    We also enjoy his "double trouble" specialty roll, made with spicy tuna, shiso leaf, avocado, fresh sliced tuna on top.

    The place also have tables that serves up "japanese BBQ", with grills at the table and self-serve style, sort of like korean BBQ. Though we mostly end up sitting at the sushi bar, the few times I've tried the BBQ I was surprised to find the meat was flavorful and tender.

    Now the only downfall is the location of B & F. It is inside this little random plaza that has few commercial office buildings and a starbucks. Pretty much you would NEVER find this place unless someone suggests it to you. Which is partly why the business there isn't as good as it could be. But this place has truely fresh honest good sushi, and the owner/sushi chef is generous and dedicated to his job and perfection. He's worked almost every day of the year minus christmas and new yrs, for the past 4 years. He is withou complaint and only wants success for his restaurant. I highly recommend this place if you are ever out in the inland!
