Chef Phillip Ozaki's Sierra Madre restaurant blends classical Japanese technique with American steakhouse boldness — an unlikely pairing that works on every plate.
The Chef Behind It All
Phillip Ozaki built Roe Fusion on one honest idea: let refined Japanese precision meet the generous, big-flavor spirit of American cooking — without compromise on either side.
A Menu Built to Surprise
Miso glazed black cod, Firecracker Rolls, USDA Prime Ribeye — each dish carries its own identity while speaking the same culinary language. Ozaki's technique and creativity keep regulars coming back for something new.
The Room That Pulls You In
The koi accent wall, warm pendant light, and a patio nestled in the San Gabriel foothills — guests get drawn in off the street and rarely stop coming back.
Three Pillars, One Team
Culture, Community, Creativity aren't just brand language — they're the shared conviction of the team Ozaki built alongside business development lead Edward Weng and brand director Brittany Tran. Three distinct perspectives, one uncommonly cohesive restaurant.
Sierra Madre's Hidden Gem
In a quiet, tree-lined foothill town, Roe Fusion stands as something genuinely rare — a dining destination that would turn heads anywhere. The Pasadena Weekly, Pasadena Star News, and VoyageLA have all taken notice; the neighbors made it their own long before that.
