This location is off of California and Stockdale. I've been to this one a few times and it's not my favorite location. There's always a good amount of homeless people hanging outside. It just doesn't make you feel good to go out of the way to come when you're craving sushi.Sushi was good and if I was in the area I would definitely go back, I just wished this area wasnt like this. I used to live around the corner and this area is turning into a not so nice area.Staff is nice, the place looked clean inside. It's a small eating area, but from what I can see they get a lot of DoorDash orders because you can hear the beeping thing go off often. Parking is not an issue, the times I've visited it was never busy so I don't think there's a long wait time.

This spot was in a busy shopping center. When we went inside we were greeted and seated right away. The servers were both nice and friendly. The food was really good and would come back again! Thanks

Came here on New Years Day for dinner, as it is one of the few restaurants open (and open late). Ordered a couple of rolls, hamachi collar, and a seafood udon. Everything was delicious! The rolls portion size was pretty big which was a plus. We got complimentary edamame for an appetizer and slice of apples for dessert. Service was relatively quick and waitress was attentive. Casual Japanese restaurant that I recommend if you're craving sushi in the area for a great price.

Not a big place!! But it feels very private and spacious. We got our 4 rolls pretty fast, super flavorful and the rice was cooked to perfection. The rolls are a pretty big size.Our waitress made sure to check on us often but not too often where we got uncomfortable. They also gave us a free dessert kind of thing with like an apple and it was a cute way to end the dinner.

No to the fish katsu but yes to the ahi and oysters. Miso soup was too salty and salad was alright nothing special. Couldn't taste the dressing.

Had the best lunch date at Love Sushi in Bakersfield. Finding good sushi in Bakersfield had not been on my bingo card for the day but I was so pleasantly surprised with this meal that I had to come on here to tell you all about it!Love sushi was close to one of my friend's houses so we decided to stop in for lunch. Really the reason we chose this spot was because it wasn't far and it was one of the only sushi restaurants that opened at 11am vs 11:30am. We found this spot easily, clear signage and there was plenty of parking which was great. We walked inside and were immediately welcomed and offered a nice booth in the back. This restaurant is pretty small. Only about 5 booths, a small sushi bar, and a couple tables so on the weekends I would say come earlier. On a weekday this place didn't get too busy but lots of take out orders were coming through.Service & staff here were 5 stars and honestly the best part of this experience. Our waitress/server was darling and super sweet. Very attentive and she knew the menu well which was impressive as they have a large menu. She was helpful and checked up on us often always clearing empty plates and refilling our glasses. The sushi chef was also the kindest guy oh my gosh! He sent complimentary hand rolls over to our table. Who does that? It was so sweet and much appreciated, it set for good vibes right off that bat. That was a really generous free starter. Our meal was definitely very delicious and we both left super stuffed but happy. I'd say their sushi overall was 4 stars but actually their cooked meals and bento box were an unexpected 5 stars for me. Their Bulgogi was some of the best I've had, especially at a sushi restaurant. Almost as good as some Korean bbq spots I've been. The bulgogi had a great sauce and the sauce got hot enough during cooking it gave good little crispy edges to the meat. Super tasty and the bento boxes are Hooked up here! Came with rice, salad, miso soup, California roll, and two fried dumplings. Seriously what a deal?! The sushi was middle of the road to me, I liked some things better than others - my roll was tasty but needed a stronger sauce to give it a little more flavor. I liked the salmon hand rolls though.All in all we had a super fabulous lunch experience here. The restaurant was clean, cute, and cozy - my favorite c's. Haha. Service was impressive and the owner/chef couldn't have been any more generous. He also gave us a tiny apple dessert at the end, so sweet. Food was very good and for the large amount of food we ordered the price was about average. For a good meal though we are happy to pay. Definitely a new spot to come back to next time I'm in town, worth a try if you haven't been here yet. Good people, they deserve your business.

I ordered the a simple spicy tuna roll added the crab stick inside. This is how they delivered it me. Why would they just throw a crab stick in top like this?! Need a better chef or owner. Used to come here all the time but won't be ordering from them again.

Today was my first time at love sushi. For a Sunday evening at 4-5pm it was very slow but my server ms. Lee was so accommodating and attentive! I had the donburi, miso soup, and deep fried scalloped yellow tail? (I believe) the fish was very fresh!! The donburi is assorted fish (raw) over rice and greens. It was a great meal for 1. I'm planing on coming back with my partner because of the service and freshness of the fish.Next time I will take pictures if my little one isn't too fussy Thank you ms Lee and shout out to the chef for making my donburi bowl look so pretty!

Drove up from Los Angeles, found this little sushi joint and could not have been happier! The garlic edamame is insanely good. Loveliest service and ARELY could not have been more delightful! The chef made a special role in my request and it's nice that he was willing! Try this place it's fantastic

If I could give a zero I would. My pregnant wife ordered a baked roll for takeout. Baked meaning cooked. We get home and there is no baked roll. The guy said its ohhh it's a fresh roll in the middle and baked on the outside. Their menu doesn't say that. It's not implied anywhere. I call the guy and he says I have to bring everything back and my card to get my refund. I say put the manager on the phone and Jason won't get on the phone. Instead he has the server get on the phone and refuses to talk. Amongst other things but this place is trash. 0 stars.
