Last Saturday, my husband and I went to Maruhide Uni Club, a Japanese restaurant, in L.A. I found that this restaurant serves delicious fresh sea urchin and has many positive reviews. Since I love fresh fish, I couldn't resist trying this restaurant. I believe that sea urchin in Southern California tastes better than one in Japan. Actually, this restaurant was beyond my expectations. By the way, uni means sea urchin in Japanese. :)

My husband chose Uni Ikura Hotate Don, which is uni, salmon roe, scallop, uni egg omelet, served over sushi rice with small salad and uni soup for $18.80. I think this salad had uni dressing. They didn't mention about salad dressing on their menu, but I noticed its uni taste.

I had never tried uni soup before. Uni is pretty expensive in Japan, so I was surprised that they used uni for the soup.

This was Uni Ikura Hotate Don he ordered. He was really satisfied with their high quality fresh sea foods.

I ordered Uni Ika Salmon Don, which was uni, squid, salmon, uni egg omelet, served over sushi rice with small salad and uni soup for $18.80. It was perfect for me! All ingredients were very fresh and high quality. It tasted amazing! We can say that their fresh sea foods were the best in the U.S.

They were also selling fresh sea urchin at the entrance.

The small package of Fresh sea urchin, 60g, was $8.50. We didn't buy it this time, but I thought it must be good!

If we have a chance to go to Redondo Beach, we will definitely go to this restaurant again. I would like to try their Sea Urchin Cream Croquette and Sea Urchin Cream Pasta some day. :)
