Mitsuwa Marketplace - Torrance Del Amo

My visits to mitsuwa always makes a dent in my wallet. They have a wide variety of Japanese goodies. I always try to pick up sale items to save some money. I also pick up bento and various food items. This time I picked up some ramen on sale. The seafood pack is the only i tried this time and it was pretty good. I recommend the spicy cod roe onigiri, spicy cod roe pasta or napolitan spaghetti.

My friends and I stopped by before leaving LA and it was a well-deserved treat. Great selection of fresh seafood/sashimi available + their food court had delicious and affordable options. I tried the lunch combo from the udon nook and was pleasantly surprised by the price for a kitsune udon, an okra tempura and a croquette.

Also stopped by the matcha bar for a hojicha latte!

1st time at the store and was mind blown by all the cool and fun stuff there was! Also I had been looking for some things and glad I finally found them there! Lol will be returning for the whiskey selection that they have❤..their ipa section wasn't much but happy with what I found at the moment 😊

Plenty of Japanese specialty products as well as common supermarket items. Staff are very patient and kind. Plenty of options and decently priced.

Great food court options!! We had udon noodles from Mugimaru + Toritetsu and
and matcha ice cream from Yamari. All are so delicious. Very high quality matcha, the matcha ice cream I’ve had.

As a sushi lover, I was excited to finally get to this store and see their offerings. Walking in, the cleanliness and organization of the store made it easy to navigate. The selection of sushi rolls, nigiri and sashimi was impressive, and all of it looked incredibly fresh. The pricing was fair, on the higher side, but the quality of fish was well worth it.

The rest of the store had a wide variety of Japanese groceries and snacks. My friend was able to pick up some miso and other things for a comfy price. I highly recommend this store for anyone looking for fresh and delicious sushi.

I didn't get to try some of the hot foods, but I will definitely come back and try them another time!

The newer location in Torrance is way much better! Love the fact Mitsuwa not only incorporated a grocery store inside but also food and drink stalls which makes the entire Mitsuwa grocery experience something to look forward to!
Rating this location a 5 out 5!

Whole wheat bread is very good, but cash only…

A huge store with great variety. The food court is pretty big with lots of differing stalls to choose from. The prices here are higher than Tokyo Central but maybe the selection is slightly fresher. The $2 veggie deals are amazing!

Great place to get sashimi! Delicious and reasonably priced. They have a good variety of fish plus a bunch of pre-made Japanese dishes to pick up and eat on the go. Very clean. Will definitely be back to make some homemade poke bowls!

Best Japanese market, comic books, Japanese magazines, stationery, plush toys, makeup, personal hygiene products, snacks, cup noodles.... And a food court. If u r craving for authentic Japanese rice cakes, jelly or Royce, dont miss this spot!

as you know by now, I’m a huge fan of sushi. Recently I had a chance to try some grocery store sushi. Wait 🖐🏼!! It’s not what you’re thinking 🤔. I tried out Premium Sushi Set from Special Chef’s Sushi at Mitsuwa in Torrance. And lemme tell you I was delightedly surprised 💫. It turned out their fish 🐠 were picked each morning and prepared on the same day. No wonder why they’re super fresh 🤩. .

Nice Japanese supermarket in Torrance. Love their food court too.

First time here at Mitsuwa Marketplace, love it.
Food are amazing

It's not fully open, yet, since a lot of stores are still getting ready, but it's still worth going to! It's very clean and I found a lot of Japanese stuff I was looking for (snacks, food, and the kinokuniya next door).

This Mitsuwa does NOT have a bakery. I really wanted some melon pan. I'm not sure if they plan to have one, but I'd love to see one. They do have a nice seafood selection. Some restaurants in the food court section are not open, yet, but there are at least 3 to choose from.

The restrooms are also super clean!

New market smaller than some of their other locations. A number of food court locations are open but it looks like it will double in size. There's also an outside patio for the food court. Separate food stalls in the back of the store for sushi and other options. As always, very clean and well stocked. Plenty of parking right out front.

Shopping @ Mitsuwa is just an incredible experience. It’s spacious, comfortable and enjoyable. Everything looks colorful and nice. There’s a wide selection of imports and you will definitely find something intriguing and never seen before. The food court right by looks attractive as well, can’t wait to grab a bite here next time! Great job by their management, thumbs up!

Well I have found a new favorite place to shop and for lunch or dinner.
First off the Mitsuwa Marketplace is HUGE. I will add many pics.
As I walked in the door I stopped for the specialty coffee pour over from Yoshi. He is fabulous. He taught me a new technique on how to do this using fresh coffee. There is a European flair to this. I purchased a cup of the Ethiopian that he offered as it is said to have a slightly fruity flair. Honestly this cup of coffee rivaled any brewed cup. It isn't fast. So please relax and wander for 4 minutes as he produces a fine coup of coffee for you. Super fresh!! Woke me up and zero bitter taste and not at all WEAK. you can buy the coffee in bags and the special gizmo he uses can be purchased on Amazon if you want to try this at home.
Then I hit the Ramen. I got a medium sized Miso rate and it was delicious. Now I do not have to travel to GARDENA for some excellent Ramen. Flavorful and the noodles were absolutely cooked to perfection. They are so clean here. I love that you can go get a seat outside and wait for the pager to go off and then go pick up. I was full and glad i didn't go large but if you're a super hungry boy go big!!
My friend got the teriyaki from another spot inside the food court and it was so yummy looking. She could not eat it all.
There is a bookstore also inside and I was THRILLED to see all the art pens and supplies including watercolor supplies. They had great selection of cards for all occasions and so many books. I fell in love with another of the notebooks as I am a girl who loves to make lists.
I also enjoyed the supermarket. Fresh fish, neat, fruits and veggies, and the specialty Asian varieties that I like and are hard to find. I have to say of you are shopping at the mall don't want to wait to eat and love sushi... TONS of fresh choices. Check my pics!! I stocked up lol. They safe distance and provide sanitizer. Masks are required. Very clean and the Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Also check out the sweets and the bakery. I try to look away because I do KETO but its so hard when everything bis so beautifully displayed fresh and delicious.
Enjoy this fabulous shopping spot and let me know if this review helped you with a like! Enjoy

Awesome food! Plenty of choices made it hard to decide what to eat. Atmosphere is like a mall setting with strictly Asian food to pick from... Only the quality is top tier with wherever you decide.

An amazing g assortment of Japanese items including bath and beauty, snacks, fresh bento lunches, as well as a grocery store, food court (where you can get delicious and cheap donuts and hot food), and Kinokuniya bookstore! The food is so good and tastes fresh; I bought riceballs and a bento for a few days of lunch meals!
