First time here! Everything tastes really good. I had a green salad, butter fish and a Viva Mexico roll. And iced green tea. It came in a plastic cup, but it was the eco-friendly greenware brand, so at least there's that. The salad was yummy with a ginger dressing and an unlikely addition of a piece of cold cooked broccoli with a lil bit of cheese sauce. It almost looked like a mistake but it was good!

Perfect place to come if you don't mind super slow service, uncommunicative staff, and overpriced tiny amounts of sushi that are just OK. I felt bad for the ONE waitress they had working during a busy Friday night. Also, their technology is so outdated! They don't have a card reader instead they use a machine that makes a carbon copy of your credit card. This is how they processed credit in the 80s, and since they only have one, I repeat ONE waitress, it just slowed everything down since she had to do everything (take orders, give people food, bus tables, and process payments!) I'm not a person that demands like super overly happy service but basic courtesies like telling me how long my food will take, apologizing for the a long wait, and not treating me like a nuisance when I ask for a receipt are not a lot to expect. Seriously, they should use some of those profits from their overpriced sushi to buy a card reader and hire more staff.

Seriously such a bad sushi experience, there was just one server on a Wednesday night. She took forever just to bring us menus. Then she brought me my drink w no ice and it was a soda. We never got our drinks refilled once. Not once did she check up on us. The sushi wasn't that good I didn't even finish my roll. Just over all a bad experience. She even spilled water all over the table next to us. Would say skip this place and try another.

Don't come hungry. Now don't get me wrong, the food I was served was delicious. However the portions were way too small. I paid $15 for 4 pieces of sushi. It didn't say there were 4 pieces in the roll on the menu. All of our food came out at completely different times. When we first arrived the waitress asked 2 people if they could move so we could sit together which I thought was crazy. I asked for a Diet Coke when I ordered my food. It didn't come till after I ate, after I reminded the waitress. All in all good tasting food, horrible portions, bad service.

It's not that easy to find and it does look a little wacky from the outside... but go ahead and head inside for some of the best sushi in Orange County. It's a small place but they have a full menu restaurant on one side and a sushi bar on the other. The sushi is consistently some of the most unique and fresh I've ever tasted.

Joe the chef was awesome. All dishes served was fresh and very tasty! Good amount. Sake is one size but they should make sure to fill it all the way up. Because of the quality, We will be back. Thanks to my gf, Nancy who raved about it :)

Unfortunately not fresh sushi the night we tried. We have friends that like this place and are regulars. Maybe just an off night for them but fish quality and flavor was not good. We barely finished half our Togo order and tossed the rest.

Good food and service
Bad service. Will not come back.
Food and service is always amazing and truly welcoming.
Lion king roll is outta this world. 4 stars for their hours and sometimes they take a long time even if they're not busy.
We ordered togo and it just wasnt good. Lots of great reviews and we had high hopes. So disappointed. Fish was not fresh and had no flavor. Sorry.
