FOOD
Smoked Soy Sauce (8.5oz Bottle)
Traditional soy sauce is great, but it can overpower the delicate taste of raw fish. The solution? Our homemade SADA smoked soy sauce! Around 1600 AD, Japanese chefs began smoking bonito fish in order to prepare a dashi broth. In doing so, they discovered that the smoking process unveiled a more intense flavor. Soon after, Nikiri soy sauce was born. Created from a graceful blend of traditional soy sauce, sake, mirin, and dashi broth, Nikiri is guaranteed to add a subtle umami flavor to your sushi and/or sashimi that will complement each dish instead of conquering them. Our SADA smoked soy sauce is an embrace of tradition…with a twist. Like many high-quality restaurants in Japan, we make our Nikiri soy sauce in-house. The difference, though? We smoke it afterwards, creating a sauce with even more extraordinary flavor. No sushi? No problem. It blends perfectly with other meats and veggies. Use it as a marinade for your next BBQ or introduce roasted vegetables to its delicious flavor!

Great restaurant and location. Parking may be a little difficult on the weekends. Service was awesome and quick. Had a chance to try a few rolls. You can’t go wrong with any. The spicy rolls were not that spicy, so if you get a chance, try them. The sake flight was great as well.

Went last night for the first time. Small, cozy place with comfortable seating. Friendly, efficient staff. Delicious food! We weren’t very hungry so we just had edamame and veggie roll. SO good! And the hot sake was great too. Will be back to try more. Highly recommend.

The sushi here is so damn good and fresh. Love the creativity on the sushi rolls and sashimi. I highly recommend Japonica. We sat outside to enjoy people watching. The service was great and kept checking on us. Japonica is right near the Hermosa Beach pier. So after dinner, we took a walk to the pier.
