The outside looks plain but once you get inside it's a Very wonderful old school family restaurant atmosphere. Loved the place and the tempura was delicious. Staff is very friendly and the menu options well organized. Hardest part is picking only one! I'll be back!

I love Amachi, I'm not ashamed to say it. There are few restaurants I can say that about. So let me tell you why. 1. It's a small, quaint, family style restaurant, much like like those I encountered as a teacher in Japan. 2. It is highly recognized within the Whittier community. 3. The prices have always been respectable. A top quality meal for around the same price as many fast food burger meals. 4. The food is consistently flavorful and traditional American Japanese food. 5. The hosts have always been friendly. 6. Though the menu doesn't change much, and is more limited than you might find at other commercially owned Japanese restaurants, the selection is really good. 7. I ate here several times a month with my buddy for years. 8. I've eaten Japanese food from restaurants all across Japan, and here in LA. County, and though it can be a bit busy, its small and hidden away off the street, and they have strange hours, it's still my favorite. It's one of those places I hesitate reviewing, because the selfish side of me would rather have fewer people know about it. PARKING: Amachi is located off Green Street in a little side pavilion beside Mimo's Cafe. You can not see it from the street. Parking is in the rear across from Amachi where a little alley passes. You access the city parking from Comstock Avenue. UNUSUAL HOURS: They are closed on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday they are open for lunch, then close and reopen a few hours later for dinner. Friday to Sunday they are only open for dinner.

Delicious lunch at a fantastic price. Quality is tops. It's an old school, family owned Japanese restaurant. Best lunch in Whittier. Unfortunately, the workweek lunch is only Tuesday - Thursday.
