I love asian food and this is the best healthiest asian food I've found in LA at this price point (under 10$). If you eat organic, you know how hard it is to keep costs down, and this place is a great value and great tasting!!!

Definitely come to Fresh in the Box for their Brown Rice Sushi! It's a lot healthier and tastier (in my opinion) and I don't know of many places that offer it. Don't expect Ngiri style sushi as they only serve rolls, but do expect good quality fish for the price you're paying. I've had the Spicy Tuna Sushi, the Spicy Salmon w/ Cucumber Sushi, & the Marina Roll -- all with brown rice. I'd have to say that the Spicy Tuna was my favorite. As far as the entrees go, I've had their Chicken-Katsu curry which is HUGE and covered in sauce. My boyfriend had the regular Chicken curry and said he didn't like the chicken much (they use free-range though!) but that the sauce was great. My co-worker had the Vegetable Curry and she really enjoyed that. I like the fact that they don't skimp on the sauce since other curry places often give you too little in comparison with the amount of rice they give. As far as other menu items go, I have had their Grilled Salmon with the Sweet & Spicy Miso sauce which was okay. It might have been better if I'd eaten it there, but I took it To Go so it was cold by the time I got to it. Another co-worker had the Tofu Salad and the Chicken Kara-Age (Nuggets), and both were deemed pretty good. I appreciate the fact that they strive to use organic products when available. It is nice and clean inside and you can sit down and eat there, but I think most of their business is To Go. The staff is really friendly (offered me free barley tea my first time there, and gave me free miso soup and a t-shirt when I placed a large To Go order) and you can tell that they really care about their business and what their customers are putting into their mouths. I appreciate a business that wants to please its customers AND is green-friendly.
Pros: brown rice, organic, curry, friendly workers
Cons: inconsistent entrees & pricing
