Mooncats Japanese Sushi Bistro

We came to take orders here today to answer the call of the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce to save our restaurant. The board has a campaign in partnership with many restaurants in Monrovia. For this week you will receive $10 for orders more than $30. We didn't want to miss this deal. We also help local restaurants. We wanted to try this place anyway. This is our chance. When we were there, the cook is the only one to take over the order and cook the food. We ordered a shrimp udon and vegetables soba. Both dishes were delicious. I love her Udon. The soup was incredibly tasteful. The Udon was soft, but chewing. My wife has the soba. We're both fans of soba. When we visited Japan, we went to the...

We got lucky on the parking, because this part of Monrovia is usually busy and crowded with tight parking. This gem of a sushi shop is a hidden jewel. It's very tiny and very reminiscent of the actual Japan like size of smaller spaces and close seating. There is only one chef and one waitress which works for a small place. Anyways, the food is the out of this world and on another level. If you're looking for fresh fish and perfect sashimi/sushi. This is the place you're looking for. We ordered a few starters and some of the specials. The ono fish was super fresh and buttery. We looved the fresh eel roll. The freshness of their seafood is unmatched. This has become our favorite sushi joint fr...

The best sushi experience I have ever had!Love is the secret ingredient at this cozy, fun sushi restaurant. Sit at the six seat sushi bar and let master sushi chef Tadanari indulge you!This is the kind of place that develops its reputation by word of mouth and time.I had the omakase and a bottleOf sake which was Tadanari’s recommendation.When I sat down I was surrounded by friendly, consistent regulars who even shared sake with me. Become friends with James who is there 4 days a week. He has travelled all over the world. No surprise why he eats here all the time.Service is very attentive and humble. Cant wait to come back!This place will go down as a legendary place and guests will travel fr...

This location is off to the side and it's a small location. They have 2 sides one that focuses mainly on a sushi bar set up and you can watch the sushi be made. The other focuses on everything that is on the menu including sushi. It was my first time here and prices are affordable, wide selection of food, and staff was very friendly. I had the tonkotsu ramen and made it a combo with karage. Definitely enjoyed both dishes and the broth to the ramen was flavorful but not super heavy which I liked. As for the $5 ramen I'm not sure what it was but feel free to ask them. I'll for sure be coming back to try the other dishes.

MoonCat ramen is divided in two parts. One side is the sushi/roll area, and the other is the ramen bar. You cannot order sushi at the ramen bar and vice versa so make sure you are in the correct place. I ordered miso ramen and my friend ordered tonkotsu. Both were delicious and came in big portions. We also ordered veggie gyoza which was crispy and not too oily. There are specialty drinks available at the store as well. I highly recommend this place if you want hearty comfort food! Service could use a little bit of work.

This place is great. It's a little resturant that serves good food and reality. I consider it the quickest. The food is great and wait is approximately 10 minutes depending on how busy the place is. This is my second time ordering here and I am not disappointed

I had a business guest pick the place and I was very pleased with the choice. I am very particular about sushi and this place hit all the right notes. A small unassuming redtaurant with great food. Highly recommended.

Great food, great service! Authentic authentic authentic! The only thing is that it's a very small place, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. On cold days you may need to sit outside but there is a heat lamp.
