Mitsuwa Marketplace at the Del Amo Fashion Center in Torrance sits on the lower level facing Carson Street, integrated into one of Southern California’s largest regional malls. Entering the space, shelves are arranged with a wide span of Japanese grocery staples, including aromatic Japanese rice, a variety of dried noodles, bottled sauces and condiments, and rows of packaged snacks and sweets. A chilled aisle carries fresh tofu and packaged sides alongside sushi and sashimi trays prepared daily. Fresh seafood offerings include chilled fish suitable for sashimi and home preparation, and the meat counter features marinated and sliced options often used in Japanese-style cooking. An abbreviated produce section holds fruits and vegetables used in Asian recipes.
The prepared-food setup inside the grocery area includes chilled bento boxes, onigiri, and other ready-to-eat meals. Moving toward the rear, a striking feature of this location is the expansive food court area with seating for a large crowd, anchored by multiple Japanese food vendors serving ramen, curry rice bowls, grilled yakitori, takoyaki, and tempura. Several specialty counters offer Japanese sweets and bakery goods, including mochi donuts and traditional confections. An outdoor patio adjacent to the food court provides additional seating.
The setting in Del Amo Fashion Center makes Mitsuwa a destination where shoppers can seamlessly transition from grocery browsing to enjoying hot dishes and snacks from the food vendors, all within the mall environment.
